“Honestly… Whether it’s because he has a handsome face, or if the kid is blunt and acts arrogant.”
“When did I act arrogant…”
“Because he always talks about difficult things, I worried if he could get married…”
Mom, who was still holding Mundayul while choking up, poked the remaining tears in her eyes.
“I don’t know how happy I am for Dayul to take him with her. Lady, no! Now, Dayul’s mom!”
Mom firmly held Mundayul’s hand while organizing her own title.
“Dayul is on Dayul’s side! If that child’s heart is broken, you have to tell Mom. Understand?”
After receiving multiple firm answers from Mundayul, Mom finally smiled brightly.
Did she really cry a lot yesterday? Mom laughed brightly without a trace of tears.
“Groom’s entrance!”
Nam Jun-mo, who was in charge of the ceremony, shouted. I walked briskly along the virgin road. Applause and cheers erupted. Above it all, I walked confidently. I reached the end of the short or long virgin road. And then, I turned around.
Where I started. There, Mundayul was standing, holding Uncle’s hand.
That’s when it started. My heart began to beat abnormally.
Honestly, I didn’t want to have a formal and stereotypical wedding like this. I just wanted to have a simple and meaningful wedding with just the two of us, family, and close friends, but I couldn’t. The wedding was not just about the two of us.
We couldn’t easily have a small wedding because we were their only son and daughter.
In the midst of a hectic schedule, I just went where I had to go and did what I had to do, smiled when I had to, enduring it with the thought that I hoped it would end quickly.
But then, when I saw Mundayul preparing to come to me, my mind suddenly cleared.
“The protagonist of today! The bride will now enter.”
Mundayul shyly smiled at the applause and cheers that were incomparable to the groom’s entrance. Each step of Mundayul’s footsteps felt slow.
Was this road always this long?
I clenched and unclenched my fist with a burning heart. And finally, Mundayul came to me.
“We entrust you with our Dayul.”
Uncle left those words and hugged me tightly. After Uncle returned to the groom’s seat, we held hands and stood side by side. I wanted to throw away everything and walk the virgin road again like this, but the remaining sense restrained my steps.
Throughout the wedding, emotions and impulses tortured me. Whether Mundayul knew it or not, she laughed, cried, and repeated. Watching Mundayul, who was immersed in the wedding, I shook the hand that Mundayul was holding.
“Why.”
As I spoke quietly, laughter erupted from the guests.
“I’ve been to a lot of weddings. But I’ve never seen someone stare at the groom like that throughout the wedding. Even if she’s my friend, it’s a bit too much, just looking at the bride.”
At Nam Jun-mo’s words, the guests burst into laughter again. It was then that I realized I had been continuously looking at Mundayul.
“The wedding is almost over now. Groom, please focus on the wedding.”
After coming to my senses, only the congratulatory song remained. Doyira and Go Juyeon, who appeared wearing sunglasses. I didn’t want to entrust them with the congratulatory song, but they threatened not to attend the wedding if they didn’t sing.
“Hello. We are Doyira, friends of the bride Mundayul.”
“I’m Go Juyeon. Live well.”
“Live well.”
With a brief congratulatory speech, the music began. It was an unfamiliar song to me, but the guests clapped their hands, enjoyed it, and occasionally sang along, as if it were quite a famous piece.
The fast-paced rhythm of an exciting melody. Doyira and Go Juyeon, dancing enthusiastically to the song, were a bit… no, quite amusing.
However, Mundayul burst into tears.
I don’t know at which point she was moved, but Mundayul, who burst into tears, tried hard to hold it back. She strained her eyes and bit her lips, but despite Mundayul’s efforts, the tears welled up and fell.
“You shouldn’t cry… and your makeup is smudging…”
I remembered the tissue that Olivia had handed over before entering the ceremony. Mundayul tapped her tear-streaked eyes with the tissue.
“Don’t cry.”
“It’s just… it’s so sad.”
No, then why is that music, those movements, and that singing skill so sad…
After their congratulatory song ended, as we greeted the parents, Mundayul burst into tears again.
Someone might think I’m kidnapping her.
Only the exit remained in the sequence of events. Due to the bride crying too much, we had to take some time to fix the makeup. Mundayul, with red eyes and a runny nose, finally found a smile.
We ended up leaving together along the path we each walked.
Someone said that.
It was said to walk with meaning on the path that announces our new beginning, the first path we walk together, and to walk each step with meaning… to not forget this path and the hand we held.
“Groom, bride. Exit!”
I put meaning into the first step. Let’s be happy together.
In the second step, I put a different meaning. When Mundayul is sad, I will be sad with her. Another step, I won’t make her cry because of me.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
