The priest took his place and the wedding finally started. Everyone invited was looking at Yongrae and Sunjung. They all thought that the couple looked very good together. At the last minute, Yunyeon entered inside and sat next to Chuncha.
“Hi, did I miss anything?”- asked Yunyeon.
“No, they are just about to start.”- replied Chuncha. Yunyeon saw the couple and felt touched because she remembered that Yongrae was a kid until a few years ago and now he is getting married before her.
“They grow up so fast…”- she said while trying to hold her tears back. Then she and Chuncha started crying together.
The priest took his place and everyone stopped talking.
“Thank you all for coming here today to testify the union in holy matrimony of Yongrae and Sunjung right here before God!”- said the priest, “Before we start, if anyone has anything to say or to object please speak now or keep silent forever…”
Nobody made a sound after the priest said that sentence. They all kept looking at the couple with happiness and satisfaction.
“In the name of God let’s begin the ceremony!”- said the priest.
Yongrae’s anxiety started getting higher. At this point, he couldn’t stop this wedding anymore, he could only stay in silence forever now.
“Before we start with the marriage vows, do any of you have something to say to the other?”- asked the priest.
“I have something to say to Yongrae!”- said Sunjung.
“Go ahead my child…”- replied him.
Yongrae felt surprised by Sunjung’s request. He didn’t expect this to happen. She looked at him in his eyes and started blushing again.
“Yongrae, I know we are very young and inexperienced with life, but I will do my best to make you happy!”- said Sunjung with determination. These words touched Yongrae’s soul and he started to feel guilty. He tried to hold his tears but they came out this time.
“I love you so much that…”- continued Sunjung.
Yongrae looked down and closed his eyes to escape from the sadness that he was feeling. Suddenly the words of the fortune-teller came to his mind. – “This boy is taking the girl to a fake happy ending, and it’s not fair to her…”
“Sunjung please stop!”- shouted Yongrae.
She felt as surprised as everybody else at the wedding. At that moment time felt as if it stopped and everyone was in a state of suspense waiting for what would happen next.
“I don’t love you…”- said Yongrae to Sunjung.
At that moment Sunjung’s heart dropped and she remained frozen in place. Everyone else was shocked by what they heard.
“During all the time we spent together I started to feel something for you but this is not right…”- said Yongrae while crying, “This is not love…”
“What are you talking about Yongrae?”- replied Sunjung while crying, “We love each other…right?”
“This was not our choice, our parents decided it!”- said Yongrae to her. Oliver felt furious from what his son did and got up from his seat.
“This damn punk!”- he said enraged.
Yujun and Gyeong couldn’t believe their ears and were completely shocked by what Yongrae was saying.
“I am sorry Sunjung but I can’t marry you…”- said Yongrae, regretfully, while watching Sunjung cry.
“You are amazing, smart, beautiful, nice, kind and a lot of other things”- he continued, “Anyone would be lucky to have you in their life.”
“You deserve a guy that loves you and makes you his priority, not someone who is forced to marry you against his will!”- said Yongrae to her trying to convince her that their marriage was not a good idea.
Seojun felt enraged from what was happening and went closer to Sunjung to hold her while she was crying, she gave Yongrae a death stare while holding her best friend. Yongare’s heart was broken as well from seeing Sunjung cry like that. Then he looked at his father that was staying on his feet looking at him enraged.
“Are you proud of me now father or only when I obey your orders?”- said Yongrae to him.
“I and Sunjung have to go through all this just because of some plan you two had!”- said Yongrae to Oliver and Yujun.
Lucas during this time did not intervene since he did not think that this wedding was a good idea, to begin with. He kept looking at Yongrae hoping he would do something like this and break free from his parent's control.
“Oh boy I thought the main event was the newlyweds kissing…”- he thought after Yongrae caused this thing.
“Finally through all these years I’m able to tell you this father…”- said Yongrae while looking at him with hatred, “I hate you and all the things you have made me do all these years…”
“I always felt like an object with no voice!”- he continued while Oliver stayed in place, taking in all of his son’s feelings, “Like a pet that would do anything for your praise…”
“I never got to play with my friends like every kid my age because it was more important to learn piano…”- continued Yongrae, “Or how to market a product rather than how to make friends…”
“I can’t even ride the bicycle because I was too busy learning how to manage a business…”- said Yongrae while walking towards him, “I kept looking at all I wanted through a glass, not being able to reach it…”
“But all that ends today…”- said Yongrae in Oliver’s face with an enraged expression in his face, “You will not order me around anymore!”
Oliver lowered his head, like he was admitting his wrong doings. Chuncha kept crying through all these moments that Yongrae caused, she couldn’t do anything because she was frozen in place.
“Just leave me alone…”- said Yongrae while crying again, “I’m tired…”
“Stop causing a commotion in my church young man!”- said the priest to Yongrae, enraged.
“Shut up!”- shouted Yongrae at him while giving him a death stare.
Yujun started feeling a tightness in his chest and began to lose strength in his body. He started sliding down from his seat and his vision became blurry.
“I am leaving father!”- said Yongrae to him, “Farewell…”
He walked out from there and bumped his shoulder with his father. As he was getting out he removed the engagement ring and threw it on the ground. He opened the door and left determined.
