Chapter 11~ Oh No!!
He took one deep breath before scanning the same phone number for more than million times since the last 20 minutes. He still has his doubt, not of the wedding but about telling his siblings about the news of his sudden marriage and not to forget about his voice. What he gonna say to them? To Junsu? To Younha and to his father? Will they agree with his rushed decisions? But he can’t turn back anymore, Yunho needs him, he could feel the other anxiety, he can’t leave him alone, having a mutual bond between them at least would secure their feelings, giving a security that the other would be always by their side emotionally even though they are apart physically.
‘Sure why not…’ the dolphin simply answers the question in matter of nanoseconds. ‘It’s okay?’ Jaejoong confirms with Junsu. ‘Yes, hyung are you expecting that I would say ‘no’’ Jaejoong could imagine that Junsu lifting his eye brow from his voice. ‘Nope’ Jaejoong immediately answer besides even with his family objects the wedding he still continue his plan. ‘I thought so by the way, when you will introduce us our future brother in law? Oh! How both of you meet? Oh! How is he? Is he handsome? Nice? Charming?...’ said Junsu in one breath. Suddenly a sob heard from the other side. ‘Suie?’ Jaejoong starts to worry the moment he heard his brother sobs.
‘I’m sorry but…your voice…it’s back. I’m very happy for you.’- Junsu. Jaejoong gently smiled listening to his brother words. He knows he had made them worried.
‘Suie…could you come for my wedding? You and Younha…on this Friday. The ceremony starts at 9.am.’ -Jaejoong slightly tightens his grip on the phone as he waiting for his brother’s answer.
‘Friday…? Let me see…’ -Junsu scan through his diary…checking through his schedule on Friday.
‘I..m sorry hyung…I can’t make it, I have annual shareholder meeting at 9.am…and I think Younha couldn’t make it too…she have exams on that day.’ -Junsu.
‘B-but take the video for us…we want to see our brother in law…’ -Junsu.
‘I will…’ -Jaejoong.
‘Ermmm…hyung, are you okay now? I mean your trauma…don’t blame yourself for mom’s death…it happens that God loves her more than we do…’ -Junsu in soothing tone.
‘B-but Junsu...if I didn’t beg her to go with me…she would be still alive, to love the two of you…Younha couldn’t remember mom very well because she still a little girl when mom died…and you too…you were just 5 years old boy…the only one that have vivid memory of her is me…remembering how she love us…I feels guilty to you and Younha…’ -Jaejoong continues.
‘Hyung…haven’t we gone through this like a millions time…we didn’t blame you for it…we still have dad…well he is getting childish recently but he loves us like mom do…and hyung you too…you give us the love that mom gave you…’-Junsu.
‘B-but…’-Jaejoong tried to argue more with Junsu.
‘There is no ‘but’...hyung I need to go now…I have meeting now…’ Junsu hurriedly ends the phone call.
Toot toot toot…
Jaejoong hang up the phone, their conversation ended up in argument again. He knows Junsu and Younha hate it every time he blames himself for their mother death but he can’t help himself from doing it.
‘Baby, why are you crying?’ He feels a soft tap on his shoulder. He turns around only to meet the man of his love.
‘Yunnie…’ he cried more. Yunho immediately took him into his embrace.
‘Jaejoongie…?’ -Yunho softly caresses his hair and Jaejoong place his head facing his soon-to-husband’s crook of neck.
‘I argue with Junsu again.’ -Jaejoong sobs in between.
‘Junsu...?’ Then Yunho remembered once Jaejoong told him about his family. His younger brother Junsu, 22 years old genius...and their 19 years old little sister, also not to forget their close cousin, Shim Changmin 20 years old. He never meets them in person but based on Jaejoong’s story about them, they must be a loving family.
Jaejoong once told him, he and Junsu always ended up arguing with each other when it comes to their mother topic, but in reality their relationships is close. Junsu and Younha don’t like their eldest brother keep stuck in the past. He needs to go on like they do…it doesn’t mean they forget about their mom, they love as much as he do. But she will never in peace if their siblings relationship effected by her death.
‘Are they coming for the wedding?’ -Yunho tries to change the topic.
‘No…Junsu have a shareholder meeting while Younha have her exams so they can’t attend our wedding.’ -Jaejoong solemnly.
‘How about your cousin? Could he come?’- Yunho.
‘He can’t too…he phoned me yesterday, Uncle Shim call him back to Canada for some urgent business. So he said save the food for him.’ -Jaejoong. Yunho scrunched the moment he heard about saving the food. He wonders how much the boy love food…won’t the food gone bad by the time he come?
‘So our guests are Siwon, Heechul, Mr. Lee, Elisa and Erica, Joseph and Mr. and Mrs. Han.’ -Yunho confirms their guests list.
‘Looks like yes…’ -Jaejoong draw and invincible circle on Yunho chest repeatedly.
‘Yunnie…I wish that your parents could be here…will they accept me as their son-in-law?’ -Jaejoong pouting.
‘If they couldn’t accept you as my choice of heart and my future wife then they would find me getting my hair bald and become a monk in hidden temples somewhere in mountain area. I will not take ‘No’ as their answer.’ -Yunho in serious tone.
‘Funny Yunnie…how did you think of that?’ Jaejoong softly hit Yunho’s arm.
‘I’m serious…I don’t want other people to become my wife…it’s only you are the truthful owner of the throne in my heart.’ -Yunho caught his hand and places it on his chest, looking into the large doe eyes, expressing his love. Yunho slowly close the distance between them, slowly captured his lips…enjoying every single and inch of his soon-to-wife warm lips. No lusts involve but just a pure smooching session like they always do when they had the time and the mood.
****************
The historical day is decorated with Jaejoong’s choice of flowers white lilies, white roses and red roses. Fresh supplied from the farm courtesy from Mr.Han Jaewoo, Yunho’s employer.
It is a simple wedding near the beach where the grassy plain fields located along the cliffs. The aisle is facing the sea. The floral arches decorated with lilies and ferns, on the altars there are two white candles put inside a sphere cup lighten surrounded by ferns leaves and red roses. White cloth spread on ground as the aisle towards the altar, red rose petals spread over the cloth as for welcoming the bride.
Waiting anxiously in the bride room or tent, Jaejoong look into his reflections in the mirror. He didn’t put much make up, some eye liner effect to emphasize his huge doe eyes, lips balm to moisturize his red lips, a pair of crossed platinum earrings…early wedding gift from Junsu and Younha and a bit touch on his raven black hair. No suits for the wedding, just simple white shirts and white trousers same with Yunho.
‘Jaejoongie...it’s time.’ Heechul calls for him. Mr. Lee escorts him towards the altar. Jaejoong readied himself at the beginning of the aisle and Yunho at the end of the aisle, on the altar waiting for his beautiful wife, with the slight nod from Mr. Lee. The pianist plays the piano version of hitomi wo tojite accompanying the bride.
Mr. Lee pats Jaejoong’s arm that hooked with his, ‘Jaejoongie…please be happy…that’s all my wishes.’ Before handing Jaejoong’s hand to Yunho’s. He nods to Yunho, the bride changes his partner to his soon-to-be husband. Both of them smiled to each other before proceeding with the ceremony. The priest slightly clears his throat. ‘May we start?’. Jaejoong and Yunho nods to him.
‘Hereby today we will witness the union between Mr. Jung Yunho and his partner Mr.Kim Jaejoong.’-The priest starts with his speech
‘So we shall start with the wedding vows, please Mr…?? ’ The priest look at both them confused who should start first.
‘He will start first...’ Jaejoong point Yunho.
‘Okay Mr. Jung you shall starts the vow first.’ -The priest invites Yunho. Both of them turn to their side facing each other. Yunho took both of Jaejoong’s hand into his. He gulped his saliva due to nervousness before he start.
‘I, Jung Yunho take you, Kim Jaejoong, to be my wedded wife. With deepest joy I receive you into my life that together we may be one. As is Christ to His body, the church, so I will be to you a loving and faithful husband. Always will I perform my headship over you even as Christ does over me, knowing that His Lordship is one of the holiest desires for my life. I promise you my deepest love, my fullest devotion, my tenderest care. I promise I will live first unto God rather than others or even you. I promise that I will lead our lives into a life of faith and hope in Christ Jesus. Ever honoring God's guidance by His spirit through the Word, And so throughout life, no matter what may lie ahead of us, I pledge to you my life as a loving and faithful husband’ -Yunho finished his vow and now it’s Jaejoong’s turn.
‘I, Kim Jaejoong, take you, Jung Yunho, to be my wedded husband. With deepest joy I come into my new life with you. As you have pledged to me your life and love, so I too happily give you my life, and in confidence submit myself to your headship as to the Lord. As is the church in her relationship to Christ, so I will be to you. Jung Yunho, I will live first unto our God and then unto you, loving you, obeying you, caring for you and ever seeking to please you. God has prepared me for you and so I will ever strengthen, help, comfort, and encourage you. Therefore, throughout life, no matter what may be ahead of us, I pledge to you my life as an obedient and faithful wife.’ -Jaejoong finished his vow. They once again turn to the priest.
‘Now you may exchange the rings.’ -The priest.
A little girl comes with a pillow case where they place a pair of ring on it. Yunho made his move by taking the ring and place it on Jaejoong left hand ring finger and then followed by Jaejoong repeating his actions.’
‘And now I shall announce both of you as husband and wife…or husband, I guess and you may kiss the bride.’ -The priest
Yunho pull Jaejoong closer to him, the large doe eyes was quite shock by his newly wedded husband actions but then his gaze soften, Jaejoong closes his eyes waiting for Yunho to give him the kiss. Yunho smile and give him the kiss…the kiss that becomes the oath that they shall remember until the end of their lives.
************
The ceremony ended and they have a small party at Jaejoong’s beach house celebrating the newly wedded couple.
‘Cheers for the new couple!!’ Siwon cheers by lifting the filled wine glass into the air. They cheers for the couple. The sway of the music accompanying their party, they have barbeques and conversations. Jaejoong looking at the scenery, he wish that his family could come for his wedding but he lost contact with their father not even Junsu know how to contact him. Junsu with his business and Younha with her school, he sighed heavily.
‘Why the bride is not happy?’ Heechul suddenly interrupts his thought.
‘Chullie…nothing I’m just missing appa , Junsu and Younha.’ -Jaejoong. Heechul then mouthed an ‘O’ after he know the reasons behind Jaejoong’s sigh.
‘Ne~…I just wondering…did you know what happens during First wedding night?’ Heechul curious whether his innocent Jaejoongie would knew what exactly husband and wife do during their first wedding night.
‘They sleep together on bed.’ Jaejoong answered his question. The answer’s still not obvious to Heechul. Still curious he asks deeper.
‘Sleep what kind of sleep you mean here…’ Heechul lifted his eye brows hoping for the answer that he wants…the innocent Jaejoongie knows about sex…at least.
‘Funny Chullie…like usual we do…wear our pajama, sleep on bed and not to forget blanket to keep warm.’ Heechul then mentally smack his own forehead. Jaejoong still as innocent he looks…even in his mind…as pure as a new born baby.
‘Jaejoongie-ah…there is something that I need to tell you…about your wedding night and what husband and wife usually do’ -Heechul feels he have the responsibilities to tell Jaejoong.
‘Okay…stop contaminating his mind.’ Siwon suddenly interrupts Heechul with Yunho at his back covering his redden face.
‘B-but Siwonnie, Jaejoongie needs to know about ‘It’’ -Heechul protest.
‘Leave that to his husband…now it’s his husband business to deal with his innocent wife not yours.’ -Siwon stated firmly and drags Heechul away. Yunho hid his face deeper in his palm and Jaejoong in confusion…what is ‘it’ they means about? Don’t people sleep at night even though they are married?
