![]() She was becoming more and more like her husband-to-be each day… Jan Di's hair was braided and arranged into an elegant bun. She nodded off once or twice, nearly destroying the stylist's work, and she was reprimanded. While the stylist primped her hair Jan Di dozed in the chair, as she'd struggled to sleep the night before due to nerves. ![]() Why don't guys have to do this? She'd wondered. Jan Di had been forced to wake up at the crack of dawn for hair and makeup. The wedding day had been long, exhausting, and perfect. Jan Di had felt even closer to him and to his parents then, and when the wind kissed her face, she felt that somehow they had given their blessing. Prior to the wedding, Jan Di and Ji Hoo had once again visited his parents' grave site, and he'd presented her as his bride-to-be. He hadn't thought it possible, but that had made him love her even more than he already did… Grandfather had told Jan Di about it, and when she revealed to Ji Hoo that it was where she wanted to be married he'd been incredibly touched. Jan Di and Ji Hoo had decided to get married in the small church where Ji Hoo's parents were married. He'd already been hinting at spending some time hanging out with his new hyung. Initially, Jan Di's family had been disappointed when she broke it to them that she and Joon Pyo were no longer together, but after telling them that she was now with Ji Hoo they quickly recovered. Jan Di could only imagine his horror, yet he spoke of it with a smile on his face. Her father had hugged him vigorously, and her mother and Kang San had crowded around him, squealing with delight. She shook her head at the account Ji Hoo had given of going to her father. As expected, her family had been thrilled. True to his word, Ji Hoo had gained permission from her father. ![]() She propped herself up on her elbow, rested her head in her hand, and continued to watch him sleep, as the events of the previous day and night played before her eyes… She smiled and studied him, pleased that he had not yet woken. She ran her finger along his cheek and tucked aside a strand of hair that had fallen across his face. Unable to resist the temptation, she decided to risk it and carefully reached out for him. She hesitated, wondering if she could touch him without waking him she truly did not want to wake him. She smiled tenderly and began memorizing his face. She let out a pleasurable sigh and watched his bare chest rise and fall slowly, partially covered by the loosely strewn blanket. For a moment, she wondered if it had all been a dream… She glanced to her right to confirm, and Ji Hoo lay there fast asleep. It took her a moment to realize that she was now a married woman. She oriented herself to her surroundings. Jan Di awoke the morning after her wedding feeling… blissful.
