It's Sunday morning at Teuk's apartment.
Teuk woke up and found his bedroom feels so empty. The thing that he remembers before sleep is he slept with someone. 'that someone' picked him up from the airport last night, then, they come to Teuk's apartment, having dinner together and slept together. But, where is that person?
Teuk out from his bedroom and he still not found anything, Shimkoong also gone, he starts to panic and then grabs his phone and start calling someone "Where are you? Are you takes Kongie with you?" Asked Teuk. "Yes, we take a walk together. Don't worry, we'll back soon." Answered Sora.
Teuk sound sighed in relief "You make me nervous. I thought I lose her"
"You more nervous if lose her than me"
"Of course"
"Aisshh............." Sora almost cursing "Check your phone, I send you a photo of your daughter, she's happy with me"
"Really? Wait" Teuk check his phone and see the picture.
"Aigoo she's so pretty, I'm gonna post it. No one recognizes it as you"
"Post-it on the day you go for walk with Kongie. Ah, Oppa, I'm starving, can you cook something for breakfast?"
"Alright, go home soon, I prepare breakfast for you"
Then they ended the phone call. After put his phone, Teuk takes to bath and start making something in his kitchen. When he finishes his cook, Sora comes back with Shimkoong.
"Aiigoooo, my daughter. Where have you been? You make Appa nervous. Are you having fun with Omma?" Said Teuk while hugging Shimkoong.
"Pffttt... Omma. When did I give a birth a dog" said Sora while putting her groceries on a table, she buys a lot of fresh fruit and veggies.
"Seems like your mother jealous of you, she's kind of grumpy stepmother right now," Said Teuk to Shimkoong, hearing that Sora just laugh a bit. "Wow, it's my birthday again? Why so many foods here" said Sora when looking to the dining table.
"You have to eat a lot, thank you for taking care of Kongie," said Teuk while giving a back hug to Sora and kiss her neck.
"Oppa, I'm on diet right now"
"Why? Your body looks good"
"No, I'm gaining some weight and look at my cheeks, it's bigger now" Teuk look at Sora deeply, "Sora, You're beautiful. I love your chubby cheeks and I don't see any problem with your body, you're perfect and look so much healthy right now. Nothing to worry about"
"But, someone told me that I still fat"
"Who says that? You're beautiful with any shape of you, don't hear something stupid like that. Come on, let's eat" Said Teuk and letting Sora sits on a dining chair.
"Cause you like bread so much, I made you Korean sandwich and smoothies for the drink. For me, I will eat rice with japchae, gyeran mari, and kimchi jjigae. I miss Korean food when I'm away"
"Wow.. it looks delicious."
"See? I know that I'm dating an actress who needs to control her body, so, I made you healthy food. But, don't push yourself to look skinny, you still have eaten delicious food and enjoy your life. I love you the way you look and the way you are, don't really think about people say to you. Understand?"
Sora nods and smiling, "Neeeee, it still morning you already talk too much but thank you"
"Being talkative is my....."
"Shut up and eat" Sora fed Teuk with rice to make him shut.
"You don't like the way I talk, right?"
"No, I love the way you talk and the way you are" Said Sora while imitating Teuk's word before. They laughing and enjoy their breakfast together while talking about what they do before they met yesterday. Teuk also tells Sora about his new project and Sora be like "What? You have fix program in Thailand?" asked Sora in the middle of their breakfast.
"Yes, I'm filming the first episode yesterday," Said Teuk calmly.
"I thought it will be a one-time event?"
"No, I'll be there once a week"
"What? Every week?" Teuk nods and enjoys his food. "Why?" asked him back. "How about your concert, album preparation, your other show, and your health?" asked Sora again, "Everything fine, why? Did you worry about my condition? Don't worry about that, I'm so much better now"
"But you already busy with your other program why you add more?"
"Because........"
"What about me? Why you so busy?" asked Sora.
Teuk freeze. He felt guilty, "Omo, I'm sorry......" he stopped eating.
"I always told you about every offer that I get, why don't you do the same?"
"I'm sorry, that was a nice offer and a good opportunity for me"
"Most of your time on your work and now you add more job. When your time with me?"
"After work?" answered Teuk carefully.
"Yeah, you after work is middle of the night and overseas"
"I'm sorry, I should tell you earlier. I will try reduces my schedule after this."
"This is our last chance. we broke up for the first time because of our busy schedules, I don't want it to happen again"
"Please don't, I'm sorry, that was my fault. Let's have a date more often, I promise"
"Maybe we can openly start discussing schedule and upcoming project from now because when we're married we'll be talking about that a lot, right?" Said Sora almost whispering, she's embarrassed.
"What? Married?"
"Nothing, I'm finishing my breakfast. Thanks for the food" Said Sora while cleaning the dining table.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? You always avoid the topic of married but why you bring that up?" Asked Teuk and walk closer to Sora, "Are you start thinking about getting married to me?" asked Teuk again while holding his smile, Sora faces getting red now.
"Put the plates, I will clean that later. Answer my question, please"
Sora exhales her breath and goes to the Teuk's room, she comes back a few seconds later with something on her hand. "I found this on one of your dressers. I found it when I want to borrow your jacket to a walk with Kongie this morning"
When Teuk looking at what Sora holds, his jaw almost drops. it's a ring box that his mom gave to him. His deep secret finally reveals, "That was...." Teuk said while thinking his next word, he doesn't know what to say, "Are you planning to propose me?" asked Sora to do point.
"No, I was planning to propose my other girlfriend," said Teuk and Sora almost throw the box to Teuk's face "Wait, I'm kidding," Teuk said while laughing awkward. "Omo, it so awkward," said Teuk again but then he holds Sora's hand and takes her to the couch. "Since you found it yourself, I will tell you the truth.." Sora does not give her response, she just sitting quietly, waiting for Teuk's explanation.
"My mom gave it to me, she asked me to give it to you on your birthday. But, I didn't do it cause I know you don't want to marry yet and maybe you gonna dump me. So, I decided to keep it until you ready"
"The song that you sang at your concert, are you planning to sing that for me?"
"Yes. That ring really hypnotized me for once. When I saw that ring, I feel happy for no reason. I start thinking about the marriage thing, I start listening to proposing song, I feel crazy for once even though I know that you will reject me. When someone asked me about the song that I will sing at the concert, I suddenly said that song. It's crazy, right?"
"Are you really want that?" asked Sora
"What? Married? No. As I told you before, having you in my life is a beautiful thing that I can't ask more. Marry or not as long I will still be with you, is enough for me. I was consumed by my mother's words that times, I was selfish for a while. I'm sorry" said Teuk while grabs Sora's hand.
"What are you sorry about, that's fine. Thinking about marriage is a happy thing. You're not doing any mistakes"
"I know you terrified when my mom asking about marriage thing and when I sang that song. I know you really well, you can't lie to me. You have a hard time because of that, right? I'm sorry about that"
Sora's eyes got teary, she doesn't expect that Teuk knows her that well. "You're right, I was terrified. I'm scared that you suddenly proposing to me as you did on the show. I'm scared people with hate you and I will ruin the concert"
"Of course I'm not gonna do that. I will be more careful with our relationship now. Don't worry" said Teuk while pulling Sora on his arm.
"Actually, I almost thought that I will dump you again if you proposing me. I will ask you to find someone else if you want to get married now. But, when I think again about that, I can't let you with other women. And then I thought, what I'm worried about? The man that I will be marrying is you. I should not worry about anything, why I'm very over thinking about it. I'm so stupid, I'm sorry"
"Never thought about that anymore, how hard you tell me to find someone else, I won't do that. For me, is only you. and as long you always with me, you don't need to worry about anything"
"When you cheating on me after say that nice word, I will show you my high kick on Sunny movie." Said Sora and Teuk burst out laughing, "Wow, you're scary".
"About what I told you about discussing things is true. Let's bring this relationship to the next level, let's talk about our work more, about our life, about our difficulty, about our goals and anything. Because that married couple will do, right? Let's have a practice"
"I never thought this kind of conversation will come from you, but, yeah, let's do that."
"It doesn't mean that I don't want to marry you but let's take our time to know each other more before we decide when we will get married, let's be ready together"
Teuk nods understand, "How about it..." Teuk takes the ring box, open it and kneeling in front of Sora,
"Dear my lovely girlfriend, Do you want to be my half fiancé?" Sora laughs, "What? Half fiancé?", Teuk nods "Yes, it kind of 50% chance to be a real fiancé, we'll take other 50% later when we're ready" Sora back to her laughter, "Stop laughing, do you want it or not?" asked Teuk again.
"Alright, I do." Said Sora and Teuk put the ring on Sora's finger. "Only halfway but it feels so happy what if I get your 100% approval, I'm going crazy" Teuk said, Sora just smiles and rubs her tears. Then, she grabs Teuk's hand. "Thank you," said Sora and Teuk nods.
"The ring so beautiful, your mother has a good taste," Said Sora while looking to the ring on her finger. "You're gonna buy me another ring for a real proposing, right?" asked Sora jokingly, "Of course, I will make a great proposal that you never imagine before, just wait and see" Said Teuk excited. "But, how can I know the time you ready?" asked Teuk then.
"You said you know me so well, so, when the times comes, the universe will send a signal to your heart. Your heart will tell" Said Sora while blinking.
"Alright, can't wait to see that happen," said Teuk and he hugs Sora really tight and then kisses her. "I love you," said him then.
"I love you too"
