[ONESHOT] Valentine's Answer

EunJung flipped through her phone gallery and let out a smile as she sees all the photos they have taken in the past few months. True enough, their relationship has sure taken to another level.

 

*A night before…

 

When she was drying her hair in her room, her phone rings and a message came in.

 

[Gong-ju-nim, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY ^^ From: Janggoonim]

 

EunJung smiled looking at the content and start typing away.

 

[What? That’s all? Nothing else for me? From: Ham EunJung]

 

[EunJung-ah, I’m sorry but I am in the midst of a photoshoot. I’m busy. From: Jangoonim]

 

EunJung pouted at the last message and lazily typed in response in disappointment.

 

Suddenly, the doorbell to their dorm rang. HwaYoung rushes to the intercom to see the sudden ‘night visitor’.

 

A young deliveryman greeted her with a smile. ‘I am looking for Ham EunJung-ssi.’

 

‘Unnie, you have got a delivery to sign.’ HwaYoung shouted. EunJung stood up from her bed and went towards the door.

 

She took the package without the sender’s name. She signed twice, one for the package acknowledgement, the other one for the delivery fanboy. After saying thank you, she closes the door while reading the form to see who the sender could be.

 

The other T-ara members start crowding around her to catch a glimpse of the content of the package. ‘Unnie, what are you waiting for? Let’s open it.’ Hyomin rushes her.

 

Slowly, EunJung opens up the mysterious package. To her surprise, what greeted her was 24 stalks of roses boxed in a transparent container along with a card, a box of chocolate and a white disc. Right away she knew who the sender was. The others screamed in excitement when they saw the content of the package.

 

‘EunJung-ah, you are so lucky. We have nothing on days like this,’ SoYeon commented jealously.

 

EunJung who was smiling from ear to ear can’t stop staring at the gifts. Carefully she picked up the card and reads the content.

 

 

 

“Dear Yeobong ^_^

 

          It’s been 10 months since our virtual marriage. Like I have said before, sorry if I have not been a romantic or attentive husband to you but always remember I am always on your side. Today the boxed 24 stalks of fake roses represents that you are always on the my mind. Each bloom represents the idea that a loved one is thought of during every hour of every day, and the I can't stop thinking about the you. I really like you and I promise I will like you until the last rose dies. This the first time I am giving you gifts on Valentine’s Day and I hope I will have more chance to do so in the future.

 

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY ^^

 

 

P.S: I know I have a Grade 9 handwriting skill but I still hope you can feel my sincerity. And…don’t think of me so much on this day :P

 

From: Jangoonim”

 

When EunJung finishes the letter, her tears were already accumulating. The others were too touched by the content of the letter. Even as outsider, they could feel the childish brother-in-law being sincere and serious this time. She moved her attention to something else. The CD. It even has a small note on it.

 

Play it when you are alone without other members ^^

 

EunJung turned around to look at others to get consent from them. ‘So…can I go to my room now?’

 

‘Yah, now that you have Jangoonim, you are deserting us? You can’t even share this with us?’ Q-ri said jokingly.

 

‘Unnie-deul…but isn’t that..that is what he requested? I can’t possibly ignore that right?’ EunJung tried again.

 

All of them burst into laughter seeing the stuttering EunJung. ‘Unnie, we are just joking with you. Go ahead and watch the CD alone,’ Hyomin said while holding her laughter.

 

Without hesitating she rushes to her room and locked it. She opens her laptop and makes herself comfortable on the bed and grabs the Rilakuma bear to hug with.

 

When the video starts playing, she burst into laughter. All she sees is Jangwoo’s self cam in his own room wearing a Rilakuma bear outfit. He goes knew the camera and whisper, ‘Yeobo now that you have seen the romantic side of me, it’s time for some fun! Make sure you are watching alone, I don’t want to embarrass myself in front of other sister in laws.

 

After saying the opening speech, he disappeared from the camera and come back the background music playing T-ara’s hit song ‘I Go Crazy Because Of You’. He then started off dancing in that outfit. EunJung laugh out loud throughout the dancing process as she sees Jangwoo trying very hard to catch with the steps and rhythm. When it ended, panting Jangwoo went to the camera and said cheekily, ‘How was it? I think Yeobo’s version is so much better and… sexier. Dance to me alone someday.’

 

‘Byuntae,’ she said softly as she heard his request.

 

He then took down the Rilakuma head and said, ‘EunJung-ah, did you know how long I took to learn this dance step? I even got lot of bruises..’ His voice trailed off. ‘So, how did you like this present? I’m sorry for not able to spend it with you in a better way but I still hope that you will like it. Sleep well and I love you.’ He ends the video by giving a loud smooch on the camera screen.

 

She didn’t stop smiling even though the video ended minutes ago. She picked her phone and dials the familiar number.

 

When the call gets through, EunJung said excitedly, ‘Oppa, thank you for your surprises! I really love it.’ Jangwoo literally ‘clean’ his ear after receiving the loud thank you from her. She then continued, ‘But then again, didn’t you say you have nothing for me? You lied to me.’ He quickly responded, ‘Isn’t that what events are supposed to be? Being secretive and all. But still you do like the presents right?  So in return what am I getting on this White Valentine’s Day? A kiss maybe?’

 

Hearing his ‘bold’ request, EunJung said jokingly, ‘You are not getting anything from me. Mehrong.’ She then ended the call and puts her phone away.

 

After few thoughts, she picks up the phone and starts to type in some words and send it directly.

 

[Oppa, I’m really really happy and touched to receive your present. Have a HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY too. Molkang molkang ^^]

 

When Jangwoo received it,he was confused by the message.

 

Did she really like it?

EunJung smiled unknowingly to herself thinking back of the event yesterday. Day dreaming EunJung was then interrupted by JiYeon.

 

‘Unnie, are you really not gonna give brother in law any return gifts? It’s Valentine’s Day today!’ JiYeon asked.

 

‘Yah JiYeon-nie, don’t worry. I will know what to do.’ Eunjung said cheekily.

 

After awhile she decided to update her twitter with photos after almost a month disappearing.

Before taking off from Paris. I said "I'm going to throw away my crutches!", the shots I took while pretending to be okay, pretending to be chic... but.... they won't leave my side now. It's as if they only know me......heoheoheo....

  It's been a place I've wanted to visit since I was 19, it's a pity... byeee, next time I'm going to go to every corner, every alley in Paris!

 

She told herself, ‘Hmm...I think this should be enough, as a return gift.’

 

Jaemin was surfing the net when he saw the update from EunJung. He quickly called Jangwoo and told him about the photos as he always would do.

 

 

Jangwoo finally got his ‘gifts’ as he had wished. To others it might just be a normal update but to him, it meant something else. All the insecurities and confusion he had before already disappear.

 

 

*THE END*

 

 

A/N: *Ring on the second finger meant ‘I’m in love’.

         *Until the last rose dies means he will like her forever because the fake roses will NEVER die (get it?)
