THE HEART THAT WAS NEVER MINE
Author: Unknown_fairy
Arrange marriage...that was it an arrange marriage.
"Jeungieeeee!!!! Where is my other sock!?
Well it doesn't look like that but it was an arrange marriage!!
It's in the drawer, right side!!! Jeungul said..
"It's not there!!!"🗣️
"It is!!Just look!!" Jeungul said
"I am looking but it's not there!!!"🗣️
"If I come there and see it you are dead!!"
"This time it's really not there!!!"🗣️
"JEUNGIEEEEE"🗣️🗣️🗣️
Jeungul sighed and put the spatula down,then he stormed towards the bedroom, cursing his husband under the breath.
Glaring at Min-ji,
Jeungul went towards the closet and opened the drawer.
And just like he said,
The other white sock was on the right side of the drawer.
Jeungul huffed and turned towards Min-ji, holding the sock with a plain look on his face.
"It wasn't there when I looked jeungie,I swear. You have magical hands."
"Yeah,sure." Jeungul said
Min-ji gave another sheepish smile to jeungul, showing that he was just innocent husband and took the sock from jeungul hands. Wives were scary. Especially if the said wife is actually a husband.
"How do I look?"
After putting his shoes on, Min-ji stood in front of jeungul with a wide smile on his face.
Jeungul softly chuckled at the man and adjusted his tie. Handsome, Min-ji was handsome,just like he always was.
"Ugly"
Jeungul mumbled with an eye roll and walked out of the room. Making his husband pout.
"What don't lie to me.You are just jealous of my handsomeness. Do you even know how many people have crush on me. I'm basically a celebrity in the company."
"You should really get your eyes checked, even tho you have the prettiest eyes, but they don't seem to work properly" Min-ji trailed after seunjil rambling non-stop
Suddenly jeungul turned around, almost making Min-ji crashed into him. For a few seconds, jeungul starred at Min-ji with intense eyes.
"What What what!?"
Min-ji was low-key creeped out. His husband was pretty scary.
"Do you think.... I have the most beautiful eyes!?" jeungul asked.
Min-ji, who was taken aback by the question,then smiled
"OfCourse you have the most beautiful eyes in the world!!"
Jeungul smiled but before the smile reached his eyes
Min-ji said
"But only my mini has beautiful eyes than you"
The smile was gone from his face and the coldness returned...
"come and eat breakfast!!"
Jeungul said while turning around and went towards the kitchen.
Min-ji followed him talking non-stop
" You know what jeungie yesterday when I was having lunch,I heard everything that the people at the table behind me talk. You won't believe the drama jeungiee. There were a-hmph-"
"Shut up and eat"
Jeungul stuffed an egg roll inside Min-ji's mouth and sat at the dinning table. That's when Min-ji noticed that the food is on table.
"Woah jeungiee!!! You made egg rolls?you are the best husband in the world, I swear to God. You made them because yesterday I said I craved them right!!??"
"No there were some leftovers"
Jeungul said in a flat tone and served food to Min-ji.
"Eayyyy!!! don't lie, you love me"
Min-ji said chewing the bite.
"I don't"
Jeungul said in a flat tone.
"Everyone knows"
Min-ji said.
"Shut up and eat. Or else you will be late to work"
"Pesh! I know that you love me"
He loves him and that's what it hurts .....it hurts like hell..
It had been almost three years since their marriage.Jeungul always had a cold aura. He didn't smile all the time. But Min-ji was the exact opposite of him. The man smiled at trees and flowers too. He was a walking ball of happiness.
Min-ji and jeungul married just because of their parents. It was arranged marriage.
Jeungul didn't mind marrying Min-ji. He always planned to marry whoever the person his parents chose for him. Jeungul was never interested in dating or romance or whatever. He only focused on his job.
As surprising as it was, jeungul was a writer. A well known one.
But min-ji on the other hand was different. He didn't want the marriage. He was forced and emotionally threatened by his parents to marry jeungul. Not marrying jeungul...... but actually marrying someone. It was Min-ji who choose jeungul out of all proposals his parents showed him.
His parents were really nice people. They were really close with their son. But something managed to damage the bond between Min-ji and them. It was Min-ji's first relationship......
When Min-ji was 16 years old, he got into a relationship with a girl who was 4 years older than him. She was nice innocent and, pretty.But before the relationship even lasted for a month. Min-ji's parents found out about it. They weren't very happy with it. Once again his parents weren't strict parents. But they didn't get a good feeling about the girl their son chooses. When they did a background checkup on her, they found out that her father was in jail for drug dealing and her mother was a drug addict. They didn't want to judge her because of her family. But they really don't sense any good from her. They felt like she was changing Min-ji. And parents instincts where not something that should be underestimated......
But before Min-ji refused to breakup with her. It wasn't a normal rejection, Min-ji became very violent. That was the reason why his parents send him to his uncle who lived in the US. Of course, Min-ji didn't agree to it. But his parents managed to manipulate him, saying that if he proved that his love was true by having a true having a successful long distance relationship for 4 years, they would accept her.....
OfCourse,it was a lie. They just wanted to separate them. Just like that, they broke up . Min-ji ended up living for another 6 years in US. But however after Min-ji came back to Korea after 10 years. His parents find out that he was trying to find the girl again. And they know, they won't be able to control 26 years old Min-ji. So they immediately started to send proposals. Since he was bisexual, they found good few matches for him in bother genders and asked him to choose one....... However, Min-ji didn't want to get married but his parents again manipulated him. That's how he end up getting married. He picked jeungul as he thinks he was less annoying and he was right........
In his date with jeungul he tell him why he's marrying him and he love someone else. He agreed to Min-ji. The first months are difficult for them but as time passes they get comfortable and Min-ji true nature came out he was a bubbly sweet man and they become best friends.
But after a year jeungul realized he was in love..... hopelessly in love.... And that hurts the most .....
For his husband he is only a friend......it was one sided love...and that hurts when you love someone knowing they don't love you back...still you choose to sacrifice everything for them....
But one day everything changed....
One day Min-ji came home drink. He made love with jeungul...for the first time...crazy right?...but it was true according to Min-ji virginity is something you have to give to your love one only.....three...three years of marriage and still virgin...
And that was the mistake.... The next day was like hell for jeungul....
Min-ji shouted ,cried....he was going crazy... And after the day nothing was same as before...
Min-ji go to work sharp at morning and came to home late at night....after returning he acted like jeungul doesn't exist....
God ...it was awful...
There wasn't a day that jeungul didn't want to d!e... He hated himself for running their relationship....
There weren't a day that passed without
Jeungul crying under the sheets....
It wasn't Min-ji's fault....
Jeungul always blamed himself.....he was the one to fall in one with Min-ji even when he knew that he love someone else....
He can't force him to accept him after all it wasn't a love marriage.....
Min-ji told him before the marriage that he love someone else....
"So how could jeungul blame Min-ji for anything?"
"But he doesn't know the worst had to come"
One day Min-ji came to jeungul with a file in his hands.....
Jeungul was in the living room, typing something in his novel when Min-ji came to him......
" I want to talk to you "
Min-ji said quietly..
"About what"
Jeungul asked.
"I found mini"
Min-ji said quietly.
Jeungul heart dropped. He didn't even breath for a few seconds. He just stare at Min-ji without blinking.
Min-ji didn't say anything just place the file in front of him.....
Jeungul didn't say anything he grabbed the file....deep down he knows what's inside it ....he opened the file .... divorce papers....that was it .....
Min-ji quietly gave him the pen....
Jeungul stared at the papers for some time then sign...
Before anything Min-ji grabbed the file and almost rum out of the house.....
"Is he that eager to meet her...is that what he got after the years of love the care?"......"is that what he deserved?"..... It hurts......it hurts like hell....hell is little Infront of the pain....the pain is unbearable...
Days passed....then weeks.... then months.....
Min-ji never come...."why would he come.... didn't he divorced him?"
And then....
An invitation came to his house....a marriage invitation?....
"The grad marriage of Min-ji and mini"
His world stoped....this....this...this is not true...this can't be true....ahhh that hurts....that's hurts so much.....
After leaving jeungul Min-ji started dating mini ....after dating for 8 months they are getting married...
Min-ji's parents came to jeungul.... they apologize for his son's behavior.... "But sorry can't fixed the damage...can it?"
Min-ji sometimes wonder that whet he did...is it right....is it wrong...
After a year a news break the world....the great writer jeungul died in an accident... Min-ji heart sank for a moment... Even if he doesn't love him but he was still a quite beautiful past....he attended the funeral....he sees him for the last time....the boy who doesn't want anything but love....
After a year.... Min-ji had a son.....he held him for the first time a smile appeared on his lips.....my baby....He named him after his ex husband "JEUNGUL"
Whenever he called his son...he remembered him...the eyes...the smile that appeared rarely......
Sometimes he miss him...his care....his unspoken words.....the boy who loved him even tho he knows he can't get the love but he still choose to give him......
Sometimes love only lives in fairytale....
"I watch you smile at skies of perfect blue,And wish that I could be that sky to you"
