Brave Things
The Part 2 Moving Out


I am a typical spoiled child who has never been separated by a parent. From elementary school to college I did commute from my parents' house to whatever extent it was. My mother cried so much when she drove me to the airport to go with Jimin, still remembering in my memory how she hit Jimin's shoulder and told Jimin to take his daughter's run. Though he was the most enthusiastic when he knew my future husband was established and from the family was.


He didn't think about the risk of me marrying Jimin, which means I went wherever Jimin grew the business.


After the reception Jimin did not have much time because of the chased deadline, so it was not until 3 days we rested at the hotel where we were reception, we immediately left.


As usual I initially offered Jimin a solution so that he just left first, let me follow after steady to leave, I also planned to meet my friends first as a farewell, as well,


As usual, Jimi refused, because he wanted me to quickly adapt to my new environment there later, he also said don't think too much about homesickness because he promised to let me visit Seoul whenever I wanted.


My mom has been hysterical since I packed my little things to send first to Jimin's penthouse in China, naturally, I'm the only girl. I heard that until now my mother still has difficulty eating even though it has been the seventh day I moved from home. Thinking of a mother who still had no appetite made me quite sad.


"You cook something?" asked jimin who came from the direction of the wardrobe room, he walked while hooking buttons on his sleeves and draping a tie on his shoulders.


"Fried rice for me and waffles for you." I thrust a plate of waffles in front of him that was sitting on the dining table connected to the kitchen set where I was cooking.


Jimin says he doesn't usually eat heavy meals in the morning, but since marrying me he's been trying to change his habits. I used to go with a full stomach, starting with fruit for her breakfast, omelet to this day waffles. He's always busy working and I want him to at least eat something, not just black coffee in the morning.


"You really don't have to do this" she said, looking at me who was still busy pouring fresh orange juice for her. I usually eat after all Jimin's dishes are complete at the table.


"Do what?"


"Cooking for me, we can hire people for that."


"I used to prepare breakfast at my house first!" I replied as I began to devour my fried rice.


Jimin sighed, "You even bothered to make two different dishes. Tomorrow just give me whatever you're cooking."


I noticed his expression when I fed my waffle, I had not made it for a long time, I was afraid it felt bad because the composition I changed adjust the one in the refrigerator only.


"I'll find someone who can work for you as soon as possible" he continued.


"No need, I need activities so as not to get bored... I don't speak Mandarin yet." Jimin did get me into Mandarin classes, the classes took place in private via video meetings and were conducted from home.


I plan to continue my studies here, so until I speak Mandarin, there's not much I can do. Just watching TV can not because it does not understand the language.


Jimin then looked at me with a concerned expression, saying that he felt guilty for making me leave my family and friends in Korea, he told me to hang on until I could find an activity I could do so as not to always mind the house, especially my mother.


Part of thinking about my mom, I agree that's a pretty burden on me. But part no activity? that's something I'm enjoying fully right now.


In short, I'm enjoying being the young mistress of a businessman's wife.


"I try to go home before it's too late" said Jimin as I drove him to the door to go to work.


"Not to think about it."


I waved at him who entered the elevator until the door was closed. I know this situation is quite awkward, but I get used to building activities that would strengthen my relationship with him.


Jimin is very busy, my only effort to be close to him is when he wants to go to work and when welcoming him home, so I always desperately work hard at both times. Usually, if Jimin has gone, I continue to sleep again, or watch Netflix while snacking like unemployment, the burden of the family in general. Continue to clean up the appearance if it is near the time Jimin go home.


So busy, we've never done 'that'. We were married for less than 2 weeks, but didn't it happen on the first night? I was more worried when I got here also did not look excited Jimin wanted to touch me.


What if he's actually gay? and marry me as a cover?


But Jimin had been dating women, I heard from Jisung that Jimin's ex-boyfriend was Korean who both studied at Stanford.


But I'm more worried, what if Jimin's taste is a smart woman who can stimulate her mind, so she's not lustful to me???


Not having any activities led me to think about things very far, most often I think about how my day should be today if not married to Jimin.


I looked at the clock and said, 'usually I'm waiting for the bus to come in at this hour.' or 'usually I eat with my college friends at the pastrie shop at this hour.'


Compared to my previous activities, my activities are now very different. I felt like living only for Jimin, I woke up early and prepared for Jimin, then after Jimin left for my job all that was left was to prepare to welcome Jimin home from work.


I actually miss home too, I miss the crowded streets of Seoul as well as my noisy home. It feels too quiet here.


Maybe it will be a little treated if I have children later. But even now Jimin looks like he hasn't been interested in touching me.


Though I went through a series of bridal treatments that made my body smoother than before, I also continued the treatment myself until here just in case, so whenever Jimin felt like doing 'that' I'm ready inside out.


But I don't seem that attractive to Jimin,


Maybe Jimin married me because I thought he wanted to be moved and not much demanding, on the other hand his mother also accepted me so that Jimin did not have to bother thinking about the blessing of his parents.


It's only natural that he always seems to feel guilty when he sees me...


He felt guilty for not loving me but taking everything from my life.
