Celebrations as well as extended family's gathering are over. Everyone had returned to their respective hos after two days of spending the night at UN Village.
Despite being in one room, Mrs. Park still didn't say hello, let alone talk to Soo Yin. Likewise, Soo Yin who did not dare to greet her mother-in-law because her attitude was very indifferent.
Mrs. Park was watering the flowers in the side yard. So, Soo Yin intended to help. After all, they had once been very close like a mother and daughter.
"Mom, let help," Soo Yin said nervously.
"No need," said Mrs. Park curtly without turning her face at all to Soo Yin who was standing right beside her.
"Are you still mad at ?" Soo Yin ventured to ask. At least she had to make sure so she could straighten things out.
"No."
"If you're not mad at but why won't you talk to , Mom?" Soo Yin said. Since their relationship was distant, Soo Yin seed to have lost a mother figure.
"I just hate soone who seduces a married man," said Mrs. Park flatly.
Soo Yin was silent when she heard her mother-in-law's words. Even though she said everything but it seed useless because she wouldn't believe her.
"I'll go inside, Mom," said Soo Yin. Her efforts to persuade Mrs. Park was enough.
"Wait," said Mrs. Park without turning her body.
Soo Yin stopped in her tracks, feeling a little relieved. Maybe her mother-in-law had changed her mind so she could now accept her.
"You'd better leave Dae Hyun. Even though he loves you very much, his life is much more peaceful and calm before eting you."
Deg….
Soo Yin's body shook. Her heart ached as if pierced by a sharp thorn. Unexpectedly Mrs. Park asked her to stay away and leave Dae Hyun.
"Forget everything and live a new life. Find a man who is much better and younger than Dae Hyun. I don't want my two sons to beco enemies just because of a woman. They are only two brothers so should they not get along like this?" said Mrs. Park. She'd been wanting to say that for a long ti but didn't have the ti or opportunity. This was the perfect ti while Dae Hyun was busy inside.
"Just so you know, Park Soo Hyun left the house because of you. He wouldn't have left if there weren't any problems," continued Mrs. Park.
Soo Yin rembered that Park Soo Hyun left just in the evening after he t her at the inn. Soo Yin wanted to say everything but her lips couldn't speak. Worried that it would add to the problem. She felt that Mrs. Park wouldn't believe her either.
"Sorry mom, if my presence in this family only adds to the problem. If I had to choose I also don't want to be in this position. Which woman who wants to be a second wife? That's not what I wanted. But it's too late because I will never leave Dae Hyun," Soo Yin said while taking a deep breath.
Mrs. Park clutched her chest which felt tight. Didn't expect that Soo Yin would dare to say such a thing.
Aeri observed Soo Yin and Mrs. Park from a distance. She looked happy because when she saw Mrs. Park's expression, it seed that woman really didn't like Soo Yin's presence. Until she decided to co closer.
"Good morning, everyone. You guys seem to be having a good ti chatting but why are you turning your back on each other?" said Aeri while provoking Mrs. Park's emotions.
"Aeri, you continue watering the plants because I have to go inside," said Mrs. Park while handing the water hose to Aeri then walked past Soo Yin who was still frozen in place.
"I'll gladly do it, Mom," shouted Aeri with a happy face.
"Soo Yin, if mother's words make you uncomfortable. Don't take it to the heart because a mother only says what she feels. Mother just feels sad that Park Soo Hyun didn't co back yet," said Aeri.
"Hmmm, I understand," said Soo Yin and then left Aeri.
Aeri continued to water the flowers by humming happily. In the future she will make Soo Yin even more hated by Mrs. Park and her extended family. She was very confident about her next plan. It was just a matter of ti and opportunity.
Soo Yin returned to the guest room she stayed in last night. She began to organize her clothes into the bag. The longer she was there the more uncomfortable she felt. She felt uncomfortable if she had to linger any longer.
Her tears continued to fall rembering the words spoken by Mrs. Park to her. It turned out that Dae Hyun's parents wanted them to separate.
Check…
Soo Yin imdiately wiped her tears with the back of her hand when she heard the sound of the door opening. Worried that Dae Hyun would co. Her husband would definitely insist on telling the truth.
"Soo Yin, why have you packed your clothes?" It turned out that it wasn't Dae Hyun who entered the room, but Hae Sok.
"Grandmother." After making sure that there were no tears left on her cheeks, Soo Yin then turned around.
Hae Sok sat on the bed right in front of Soo Yin.
"Do you want to leave this house? Why don't you stay here for a few more days? Before I finally go back to Busan," said Hae Sok.
"Is grandmother going to go back there?" Soo Yin blinked her eyes. She thought Hae Sok will stay in Seoul.
"This is not my place. I'm more comfortable living in Busan. Accompany here for a few more days. Would you like it?" Hae Sok asked while carefully observing Soo Yin's puffy eyes.
Soo Yin let out a long sigh. She wanted to refuse but it felt very heavy even though it was just for a few days. She thought she could go straight ho today.
"Have you been crying? Tell grandma what made you sad?" said Hae Sok.
"Nothing, Grandma. I'm not crying," Soo Yin refuted with a thin smile on her lips. Unexpectedly Hae Sok can find out.
"You don't have to lie because you're a girl who's not good at lying," said Hae Sok.
Soo Yin bit her lower lip, realizing her flaws. She was not very good at acting.
"Say it," Hae Sok urged.
"Father and mother don't approve of our relationship, Grandma. Mother and father even asked to leave Dae Hyun," Soo Yin said in a low voice with her head bowed.
"They told you that?"
Soo Yin nodded her head.
"But don't tell this to anyone, including Dae Hyun, Grandma. I don't want to trigger a fight in this house," Soo Yin said while holding Hae Sok's hand.
"Okay, but later I will still give them understanding. You are a strong girl, so you can definitely go through all that. Don't even think about leaving Dae Hyun because he loves you so much. If you can overco this obstacle, you will definitely get the happiness you deserve," said Hae Sok while hugging Soo Yin.
"Thank you, Grandma.. Thank you that you have accepted into this family," said Soo Yin.
