Chapter 26
“We wanted to help you but we got scared so we run away.” The other girl added.
“Just focus on your requirements there, Jungie-ah. My omma and yours already volunteered to supervise our wedding preparations. There’s our wedding planner as well. Don’t fret too much love.” Hyunjoong tried to appease her.
Eve of August 15, close friends and family started
to arrive in Choi Estate. The couple decided to invite them to stay the night
for tomorrow’s wedding. One portion of the estate will house all their friends
while immediate family will stay in the main house. No reporter will cover the
event since the couple decided to set it as very private but they promise to
give photos after the event.
Everyone was in awe when they head to the Choi Estate gazebo where the wedding will be held. The theme was rustic-chic, lilac and celadon green as dominant hues for the event. It was not set as very formal but homey and comfortable. Twigs with lavender and lilies of the valley adorned the venue and there were strings of colored paper cranes as well. Hyunjoong wore white suit with celadon green vest and tie. He was very dapper and nervously waited for his bride in the altar. Hyejung walked down the aisle in a goddess like free flowing gown with a bouquet of lilac tulips in hand.
Chapter 26
Hwangbo was able to come back to Hongkong
by early morning of Monday. Hyunjoong
send her to the airport straight from Choi Estate. Good thing she was able to
go out of the country without fuss. Hyunjoong was left in Korea to attend
schedules though some have been cancelled.
It was end of the week after Hyejung left
when he received a call from Hyejung’s manager.
His phone was with his manager and he was surprise when he came in
rushing and handed him his phone.
“Hello, Hyung, yes. I’m in a photo shoot
right now. Where’s Hyejung?” he asked.
“I’m sorry Hyunjongssi. Hyejung was rushed
to the hospital. I’m on my way to see her. She went to the university this
morning and I just received a call a few minutes ago from the directress.” Hyejung’s manager explained in a shaky voice.
“I’m going there now. Please, Hyung take
care of Hyejung. Call me as soon as you reach the hospital. Tell her I’ll be
there as soon as I can. “Hyunjoong frantically replied.
Hyunjoong’s manager who was just beside him
immediately called the airlines to book a flight. Hyunjoong personally asked the
director to postpone the shoot. He apologized and promised that he will pay
whatever the delay may cause. The director upon seeing his distraught face
calmly told him that they will just continue once he comes back. He thanked him and rushed to the airport when
his manager gave him his flight details.
Hyejung’s manager called while Hyunjoong
was on the way to the airport. Hyejung was okay but admitted in the hospital
due to some concussion. Other than that her manager advised that they will just
discuss upon his arrival in Hongkong.
Reporters were everywhere in the airport
when Hyunjoong arrived. His manager
already asked for airport assistance but still it was not enough. Some fans
were also present much to his surprise. It took sometime before he was able to
check in which added to his anxiety. After less than an hour his flight was
called and he boarded immediately.
They reached Hongkong and Hyunjoong ordered
to directly go to the hospital. They received news from his agency that
Hyejung’s accident was already reported in Korea. Hyunjoong decided to call Hyejung’s parents
and inform them of the situation. Both were very worried but he assured to call
them as soon as he sees Hyejung.
Hyejung was already transferred in her room
when he arrived. His heart ached when he saw her sleeping – her right arm on
sling and her face blue with bruises. He decided not to wake her up and just
took a seat just beside her bed. A few minutes after, nurse came in and checked
Hyejung which woke up the latter.
“Hyunjoong-ah? When did you arrive?” Hyejung asked
still dazed with medicines.
“Just a while ago baby. “ Hyunjoong
replied. When the nurse was done and left, Hyunjoong stood up and gingerly
wrapped her in an embrace.
“Babe are you, okay?” Hyejung asked
worriedly.
“I’m okay baby. I’m just so worried about
you. Do you need anything? Are you hurting now?” Hyunjoong replied as he
checked her.
“No, I’m okay. My body aches but it’s
understandable. “She answered with a smile.
“What happened, baby? “He asked again.
“I was about to leave the university when I
noticed a car parked just outside the school with three girls standing beside
it. I simply went ahead but then I realized they’re following me. I decided not
to head home and took another route. I walked faster and then they walked
faster as well. I started to get nervous when an egg hit my back. I don’t want
to cause any commotion so I just run but they run after me. I didn’t notice a
man in a motorcycle turning from my left so I was hit. That’s the only thing I
remember.” Hyejung narrated.
“Good thing the motorcycle was not driving
fast. He was able to stop but still hit
Hyejung in her legs causing her to fell on the street.” Hyejung's manager added
as he walked in.
“What about the girls who stalked Hyejung?”
Hyunjoong asked again.
“We’re still looking for them but we
already had the CCTV footage. The police are looking for them now.” Dongwon
replied.
“Just let me know once the police find
them, Hyung.” He requested.
“Of course. Well, I’ll leave you two now. I
need to give a statement about Hyejung’s condition with the press in Korea. Do
want me to bring anything for you?” Dongwon added.
“It’s okay Hyung. We’ll just order. “With
that Hyejung’s manager left with a promise to call them back.
“Baby, I need to call your parents. I
promised to update them of your situation.” Hyunjoong informed Hyejung.
“Just call them here. I want to talk to
them as well.” Hyejung requested.
Hyungjoong called them and Hyejung assured
her parents that she’s already okay. Her arm was not fractured but just
sprained. The doctor advised that she can go home the next day as long as
someone’s going to take care of her at home. Hyunjoong promised to stay with
her and they’ll come back to Korea once she’s fully recovered.
Two days after Hyejung’s accident, she and
Hyunjoong was called in to the police station. The girls who stalked her were
caught. As soon as they arrived in the station, they were assisted and ushered
in a private room to avoid media sensation and protect both parties. Hyunjoong
was really agitated while Hyejung was trying to stay calm. When they saw the
perpetrators both were surprised and just took a sigh. In front of them were
three middle school girls with their parents.
“We were able to check the CCTV footage and
it was clear that these girls arrived in the university an hour before
Ms.Hwangbo came out. We were also able to request footage from the store near
the accident and saw one of the girls throwing the egg to Ms.Hwangbo. The girls
admitted what they did when we caught them in the convenience store near their
school. ” the police officer informed them.
“Ms. Hwangbo, we would like to apologize
for what our children committed. We’ve talked to them and they are really
remorseful on what happened.” One of the kids’ parents said.
Hyejung just nodded and then spoke to the
girls whose heads were bowed.
“I would just like to know why you waited
and followed me.” Hyejung calmly asked.
“We just wanted to scare you.” One of the
girls meekly replied. “We are fans of Kim Hyunjoong Oppa and when we saw the
news that you are dating him we became really furious. When we knew that you
were studying here in Hongkong we decided to follow you. We just wanted to talk
to you and asked you to leave our idol. But you ran and then you were hit by
the motorcycle.”“We wanted to help you but we got scared so we run away.” The other girl added.
Hyunjoong
was just watching and observing their discussion. He can’t help but be hurt to
know that it’s his fans who hurt the woman he loves.
“Do you promise not to do it again? To me
or to anyone else?” Hyejung asked to
which the three girls nodded. The parents were also very apologetic and
promised to settle all the expenses.
“Do you want me to be happy?” Hyunjoong,
after just observing the whole time speak up.
“Yes, Oppa. We love you.” The girls
replied.
“If you really do, then don’t hurt Hyejung.
Seeing her hurt hurts me more. I know you feel that I betrayed you but I want
you to understand that time will come and I will have to have my own family
just like you. It might take some time for you to understand me and accept that
I’m with Hyejung but I just have one request. Please do not hurt her or say
nasty things about her.” Hyunjoong said calmly.
The girl were just listening and crying
silently.
“I hope you girls will study well and learn
from this. Take good care of your parents as well. We’ll go ahead now” Hyejung
then stood up and Hyunjoong followed her out. They talk to the police and sign
papers before heading out. They were almost at the car when one of the parents
run after them.
“Thank you, Ms.Hwangbo and again we
apologized for what happened. “
“It’s okay. Talk to your kids and don’t
scold them too much. Take care on your way home.” Hwangbo replied warmly. The
parent bid good bye and the couple head back to Hyejung’s apartment. They
stayed in Hongkong for a few more days before heading back to Korea.
When they reach Incheon Airport, throngs of
reporters and fans were waiting. Hyunjoong placed an arm around Hyejung as they
made their way out. They were about to get inside their van but Hyejung stopped
and whispered something to him. He nodded and then both turn to the crowd and
bowed. Fans screamed and reporters tried to shove microphones to Hyunjoong. Hyunjoong
asked a security to get a mic and the crowd goes wild.
“Hello, I'm Kim Hyunjoong and with me is
my fiancĂ©’ Hwangbo Hyejung. To my fans, I’m sorry if I have hurt you in any
way. I will understand if you choose not to support me anymore but I only have one
request. You can say anything against me or hurt me but please spare
Hyejung. She doesn’t deserve this.”
Hyunjoong addressed and gave the mic back. The couple bowed again before
getting to their car and left for home.
It’s been months after the couple announced
their relationship and Hyejung’s accident in HongKong. Hyunjoong’s career is more or less back to
normal. He really lost a lot of project but some stick with him as endorser. Hyejung
on the other hand only has 1 month left with her course in the university.
Amidst all these, they’re also busy preparing for their wedding.
“Baby?” Hyunjoong answered his phone and
checked the time- It’s only four in the morning.
"Hyunjoong-ah! Were you able to contact the
flower arrangers and send the deposit for them? Aissh! I totally forgot!”
Hyejung frantically blabbered.
“Baby, didn’t you tell the wedding planner
to do it. They emailed the receipt to us right? Remember we talked about it
last night?” Hyunjoong replied.
"Oh! Yes, you’re right. I’m sorry for
waking you up.” She apologized.
“Are you, okay,baby?” he asked worriedly.
“Guess I’m just too stressed. I need to
finish my papers earlier than my classmates so I can submit all my requirements
before the wedding. And then I’m afraid that something might go wrong on our
wedding day because I wasn’t able to check everything.” Hyejung explained.“Just focus on your requirements there, Jungie-ah. My omma and yours already volunteered to supervise our wedding preparations. There’s our wedding planner as well. Don’t fret too much love.” Hyunjoong tried to appease her.
“Aright, I’ll see you on Saturday, babe. Go
back to sleep, I love you.” Hyejung bid goodbye.
“Love you, baby. See you.” Hyunjoong
replied.
It was ten ‘o’clock in the morning, Hyejung
was already being prepped up for the event when Hyunjoong’s mother checked on
her.
“Omma-nim, is there something wrong?”
Hyejung asked as soon as she saw her by the mirror.
“Oh, nothing, Jungie. I just want to check
on you and give you something.” And YeongMi –Hyunjoong’s mother handed her a
box. Hyejung was stunned to see a beautiful pair of diamond earrings.
“I gave one of that to your sister in law
on her wedding day. I have one too given by my mother in law. It’s been a
tradition in the Kim family. I hope you like them.” She narrated.
“I love it, Omma-nim. I’ll wear it today. “And
Hyejung stood up and hugged her soon to be mother in law.
“Welcome to the family, Jungie. Just love
my Hyun Joong-ah and be patient with him. Give me grandbabies soon.” YeongMi
uttered with glee.
“Thank you Omma. We’ll try to work on the
babies soon.” Hyejung replied and laughter filled the room.Everyone was in awe when they head to the Choi Estate gazebo where the wedding will be held. The theme was rustic-chic, lilac and celadon green as dominant hues for the event. It was not set as very formal but homey and comfortable. Twigs with lavender and lilies of the valley adorned the venue and there were strings of colored paper cranes as well. Hyunjoong wore white suit with celadon green vest and tie. He was very dapper and nervously waited for his bride in the altar. Hyejung walked down the aisle in a goddess like free flowing gown with a bouquet of lilac tulips in hand.
The sun was already setting but the event
is still in full swing. They were called to give speech before they will be
send off to their honeymoon. Hyunjoong gave the microphone to Hyejung.
“First of all we’d like to thank everyone
for coming in this event. Thank you for being part of our journey and for being
here as a witness as we start a new chapter in our lives. To my family- Appa,
Omma and Oppa, thank you for the love and support all these years. To all my
friends thank you for the comfort and love we have shared. To my new family, Hyunjoong’s
omma, appa, brother in law and sister in law, thank you for welcoming me in the
family. Hyunjoong-my shillang, thank you for not giving up on us, for loving me
unconditionally. I must have done something good in my past to deserve you. You
are my answered prayer. I love you Hyunjoong-ah. And of course, I wouldn’t
forget to mention Mirin and Hera Choi. This couple brought as back together. I
just wished you were here and that we were able to meet you. Hyunjoong and I
will be forever grateful.”
Hyejung bowed and gave the microphone to
Hyunjoong.
“Thank you everyone for coming here today.
To our parents, friends and relatives, thank you for taking time in celebrating
with us. Hyejung already mentioned the Choi’s and yes we owe a lot to them. Some
of you may know it but for those who doesn’t, the Chois were a big fan of us-the
Ssangchu couple. Mirin loved his wife so much and before his wife passed away
he promised that he will try to meet us and let us know how we have touched
their life. But unfortunately he too passed away and never met us. We were
surprised when we were summoned by Lawyer Park and told us that the Choi’s left
this estate to us. And this twist of fate, made Hyejung and I closer again and
then realize how we really love each other. The Chois were our cupid, they
helped us to find each other back. And before Hyejung and I leave, we’d like to
share this commercial that we made for Choi Galleries’ HongKong. “
The film starts with a newly married
Hyunjoong and Hwangbo walking into their living room. In a corner there sits
two beautiful wooden rocking chair. It slides to next scene, a very pregnant
Hyejung reading a book to their baby while Hyunjoong was by her side watching
her. Next scene, Hyejung holding an infant rocking her to sleep then slides to
the next where Hyunjoong this time rocking a month old baby both fast asleep. A
toddler playing on the rocking chair then a kid kicking the chairs were the
next scenes. It slides to an older looking Hyejung on the rocking chair,
worriedly waiting for her daughter, then a family picture taken during their daughter’s
graduation in college. The last scene was an elderly couple both sitting in a
rocking chair holding hands as they just smile and gaze at each other.
“That’s how I see my future with Hyejung.
Just like what the tagline for Choi Galleries says, “til eternity” my love for
Hyejung will be. With that thank you and goodnight everyone.” Hyunjoong ended.
The crowd cheered and party continues as
the couple heads to their honeymoon in Santorini.

Hurray for their much deserved happy ending! This story has touched me in so many ways..na kapag pala nagmamahalan yung dalawang tao..haharapin nila lahat ng pagsubok! I especially adored HJ here because he's just everything we all want him to be.. A simple man who's ready to give up everything just to be with the love of his life.
