My Instant Marriage 34 He surprised me with his mother

Mrs. Lee went to sleep in Eunbi's room, and Eunbi went to Young-soo's room to sleep together in his room. Eunbi sat down at the couch next to his bed and Young-soo sat down at the edge of his bed. Both of them felt so awkward to stay in the room. First Eunbi broke the silence, "do you have body lotion?"

"Yeah, it's in the dresser."

She stood down from the couch, walked near to the dresser and sat down at the dressing stool. She took the body lotion from the dresser cupboard, presses down the actuator of the lotion's bottle gets some amount of lotion from its bottle and applies it on her face, neck, hands, and legs.

As he saw her applying the lotion in front of him, he felt uncomfortable, he clears his throat and said, "you take the bed I'll sleep on the couch."

She nodded her head and as he was about to get down from the bed she said that she wanted to talk with him for a while. He sat back properly on the bed, "tell me what you wanted to talk."

She turns and sits down by facing him on the dresser stool, "today, your childhood friend Park Inha texted to my phone number."

Young-soo was confounded and asked her, "what? Why did she message you and what did she said through the message?"

Eunbi took her phone from the dresser table and showed him the texts which she has sent.

"I think she would have got your number through Hoon-suk," he said and grabbed the phone from her hand and takes a look at the texts. After reading the texts he explained Eunbi, "I just interact with her just as a friend, I don't have any feelings for her."

Eunbi pressed her lips together in annoyance, "I have already said that I don't care even if you have feelings for her."

He smiled sweetly at her, "lair."

She frowns, "why should I lie."

He put her phone on the bed, gets down from the bed, stepped near to her, and leans down by placing one of hands at one corner the dresser stool which she was sitting at. Eunbi widens her eyes by surprise as he gets near to her. He let only few inches of gap between their faces and looked at her eyes, "admit that you are jealous and scared whether I'll fall in love with Park Inha."

She leaned her head few inches back, "I'm not jealous, and I don't care even if you fall in love with her that's not my problem at-all so stop imagining things. Now all I wanted to know is that how does she comes to know that we are living together just as friends."

"Even I don't know how she came to know about our private life." He replied.

She gave him a suspicious look, "if you didn't say anything about our relationship then how did she came to know about it."

He stood straight and put his hands on either side of his hips, "Will you stop suspecting me? I swear that I didn't share any kind of information about our relationship to her."

"I'm scared whether Park-Inha will inform everything about us to our parents. We'll be in great trouble if our parents comes to know that we are living together just as friends."

"You don't worry nothing like that will happen," he assured her.

Their conversation was interrupted as Eunbi's phone rang. She took her phone from the bed, looked at the phone display, and it reads Hee-jung, she answered the call by wondering, why she is calling me at this hour.

Eunbi: Hello, tell me Hee-Jung.

Hee-jung: Eunbi, few minutes ago our exams results are out in the official university website. Hong-joo and I are passed out this semester without any arrears.

Eunbi: Congratulations guys. Have you guys seen my result?

Hee-jung: Yup! Please take a look at it because you have got 'A' grade in all the subjects in this semester exam, congratulations my friend.

Eunbi: "Oh really, anyways, thank you for the information, let me check my results and call you later." Eunbi said and ended the call.

She checks the result from the official university website through her phone, after making sure it with her own eyes she shared the happy news to Young-soo with a smile on her face.

He congratulated her by shaking his hand with her with lots of happiness. "Now I would like to remind you once again that I'll always be by your side and support you in every possible way."

Tears threatened her eyes because no one has said like this to her before, she just hugged him and thanked him for his supportive words. He wraps his hands on her waist, "don't lose your hope at any cost until you achieve your ambition, because you will happen to face lots of hurdles in the future, you have to pass each and every hurdles with lots of confidants and bravery to achieve you goals." He broke the hug and wiped the tears from her face. "Now go to sleep and tomorrow let's share this happy news to my mother."

She nodded her head and said, "good night."

He wished her good night and went to sleep on the couch and Eunbi lies down on his bed.

The next day in the morning Eunbi informs about her exam result to Mrs. Lee and Mrs. Lee congratulated Eunbi and gave her banking card to shop whatever she wanted to buy. Eunbi bowed her head, thanked her, and get that card from Mrs. Lee.

They had the breakfast prepared by Mrs. Lee. And both Eunbi and Young-soo left the house to carry on their individual business by bidding bye to Mrs. Lee.

At Young-soo's office in the afternoon while he was busy checking the files in his office room his smart-phone rang; he took his phone from the table, and answered the call without checking the caller's name, "hello, who is speaking?"

"This is Eunbi's mother."

Young-soo was amazed to get a call from Mrs. Yoon and this was his first phone conversation with his mother-in-law. He cleared his throat, "how are you doing, Eomeonim?"

Mrs. Yoon: "I'm fine, son, how are you?"

Young-soo: "I'm doing well, Eomeonim."

Mrs. Yoon: "Eunbi called me a few minutes ago and told me that she was the class topper of this semester, I was so happy to hear that news from her, thank you so much son for making her to get a good grade in her exams."

Young-soo: "Eomeonim, why are you thanking me I didn't do anything, all the credit goes only to your daughter because she worked really hard to go to that position."

Mrs. Yoon: "No, son, it's not the only reason which made her to achieve it, you are also one of the main reasons for her success. Through this I can guess that you are taking good care of my daughter and cherishing her life with your support, God bless you both. You are such a good husband to my daughter, a responsible son to your parents and in-laws."

Young-soo: "Eomeonim, it's not fair to thank your son like a third person, I promise you I will take good care of your daughter like you have taken care of her."

Mrs. Yoon: "I am so pleased to hear those words from you and I'm sorry to disturb you in your working hours."

Young-soo: "You haven't disturbed me, Eomeonim, you could call me at any time whenever you wanted to talk with me, you are always welcome," he paused for a second and said, "thank you for accepting me as your son-in-law with full-heartedly, Eomeonim."

Mrs. Yoon: "I'm so blessed to get you as my son-in-law, take care, bye."

With that she hung-up the phone call.

That evening, Eunbi took her friends out for a dinner to one of the restaurants to treat them for getting a class topper in the semester exam, and she informed about it to Young-soo in a text message to his phone number that, she's going out with her friends to treat them a dinner and return back home by 8 or 9 pm.

She enjoyed the dinner with her friends with lots of fun, and in the end they took some pictures altogether. Her friend Hong-joo dropped Eunbi off in front of her house through his car and drove away. Before she enters the house she looked at the house- it looked so dark, the lights are not switched off both in the exterior and interior of the house. She walks near to the entrance door of the house by wondering, where did Eomeonim went at this hour and why Young-soo hasn't return back home yet. She unlocked the entrance door and entered in the house. As she switches on the lights of the living room Young-soo letting off the party poppers and screamed "Surprise~" along with his mother. Eunbi jumped out of her skin to the loud popping noise that comes out from the party popper. She obviously not expected the surprise welcome which she just received from Young-soo and his mother. Her mouth opened automatically in surprise she covers her mouth with her hand, and looked at the decorations done in the living room. The ceiling are decorated with the metallic pink, white and golden floating balloons, congratulations burlap pennant banner was hung on the wall next to their wedding picture.

Young-soo reached out his hand to her by holding baby's-breath and lavender flowers bouquet saying "congratulation class topper" in a melodic tone.

She gave him a smile to his reply and took the flower bouquet of his hand, "thank you, Young-soo." And she thanked Mrs. Lee with a hug.

Young-soo grabbed Eunbi's hand and took her to the dining table; he lighted up the candle which was already inserted at the center of the cake. It was a round shaped medium size chocolate flavored cake covered with white fondant with a message well done congratulations Eunbi. He gave her the butter knife, asked her to blow off the candle and cut the cake. She smiled brightly, placed the bouquet on the table, removes her backpack placed it on the dining chair and she blew off the candle, soon Young-soo sprayed some of the party snow above her head as his mother claps her with full of excitement. Eunbi cut the cake in a small piece, first she fed it to Mrs. Lee and then she feds it to Young-soo and said, "Thank you so much for the surprise."

In return he cut a small piece of cake and fed it to her, "congratulations, once again for your exam result and my advance wishes for you to graduate the course as a department topper and I'm rooting for you," he curled his hand into a fist, raised it to his face level and said "Fighting, Eunbi-ya."

"Of-course, it's also my dream too I'll work hard to achieve it," she said confidently.

Young-soo wraps his hand around Eunbi's shoulder, "mom, do you what is her ambition?"

"No, I didn't," Mrs. Lee said with a questioning look.

"Come-on Eunbi, say it out loud of your own confidently, about your ambition," he asked her to say it proudly.

Eunbi was moved with his encouragement and she proudly said that she wanted to become a teacher.

Mrs. Lee claps her hand and said, "that's so great and I'm sure that you'll become one of the best teachers that loved by each and every students who attends your classes."

Eunbi bowed her head, "thank you Eomeonim for your support and encouragement."

Then Eunbi freshened up, changed of her clothes, and went to Young-soo's room to sleep. When she was about to go to bed Young-soo gave her a gift saying, "I don't know what to gift you so I bought this thinking that it will be useful for your daily life. Once again my hearty congratulation class topper and best wishes to achieve your ambition."

"God, you are surprising me as if I have achieved something big in my life, anyways thanks for the gift," but before she gets the gift from him she gave him questioning look, "I wanted to ask you about it earlier but I couldn't because of your mother's presence, now tell how did you knew that I'm the class topper of this semester."

He gave her a smile, "your mother called me this afternoon and informed me about it."

She nodded and gets the gift from him and unwrap the gift wrapper to see what he has presented her. It was a brand new chronograph round dial leather wrist watch.

"It looks so pretty," she commented and takes out the wrist watch from the pillow case wear it on her left wrists and asked him, "how does it look on my wrist?"

"Yeah, it looks good," he commented.

That night she kept on stirring on the bed by thinking about his surprises because she never felt this happy before.
