My Fiancé Is Gay!
Start
Was it best that it was kept as a secret?
Suddenly I felt my shoulder being shrugged
Classmate #3
Yumin, You okay?
Sunshi
You were groaning a lot, You're sweating cold sweats too
Yumin
It was just a dream, It's fine...
Yumin
Is the class's over?
Sunshi
Yeah, About thirty minutes ago
Yumin
Why didn't you woke me up?
I got up from my seat and packed up my things
Sunshi
You seem restless throughout the day, So I didn't want to
Yumin
So thoughtful my lovey
I gave her a peck in her left cheek
Sunshi
Anyhow, The professor has a project for us, I just told us we're partners
Sunshi
And Minhyeok also looked for you, But he just left because you were sleeping
Yumin
Okay, Did Shin pass by?
Sunshi
No, I didn't see him
Sunshi
Do you want me to stay in your house?
Yumin
I'll be fine, I promise, Thank you for worrying about me
Sunshi
Should we atleast have dinner together?
While I was walking home, I received an call.
Shin Kang, Shin is the longest friend I ever have, We dared our deepest secrets to each other that we to never tell anybody, He's my one and only, We'd be in each other's back, In every hard path we always have each other to back it up, We've been together in almost a half of our lives(17 years)
Shin
Did you got home? I couldn't get you cause something came up
Yumin
Oh, It's fine, How are you?
Shin
Just fine, By the way!
Shin
Minhyeok and I went on a amusement park!
Shin
We got really close by entering that haunted tunnel! It was so much fun!
Yumin
Basically you're saying you had an date with him?
Shin had a crush on Minhyeok since the day they met, Which was 15 years ago when we were six-year olds, Minhyeok was a son of my dad's friend, When I first met Minhyeok Shin was there in our house, The first time Shin laid eyes on Minhyeok he was love strucked after that Shin never changed the way of his look at Minhyeok
Shin
If it doesn't sound so assuming
Yumin
Pft, You have your way with him, You'll get there sooner
Shin
You sound down, You okay?
Yumin
Oh, No, I'm just sleepy, I'm still walking down the hill
Shin
I'm sorry I couldn't walk with you today
Yumin
Dummy, It's fine, I already had fun today too, I went on this pretty restaurant with Sunny
Shin
Is that so? I'm glad you also had fun!
Yumin
But it sounds so clear that you had more fun which is honestly unfair
Shin
It was my first time having such a together moment with Minny
Yumin
Pft, You're bragging too much, Anyway did you got home?
Shin
I'm still in the park, My driver's heading, So yeah, How bout' you?
Yumin
Just got here, I have a project, so I'll see you tomorrow
Falling onto the couch, I picked up the remote and turned the TV on.
Just before she could even get her phone, It suddenly rang again
Yumin
'Who is this, This time?'
Seeing it was Minhyeok, I answered
Minhyeok
Yoo, Are you alright?
Minhyeok
Sunshi and I talked bout you earlier
Minhyeok
She said you were a bit gloomy these days
Yumin
I'm just tired, Plus we're very busy
Minhyeok
Do you want to have dinner?
Yumin
I already had though
Minhyeok
Then how about a meet in the library?
Minhyeok
I just want to have a talk
Yumin
We're doing that right now
Minhyeok
No, Like personal cuz...
Minhyeok
I think it's awkward in phone
Minhyeok
And it's much more proper in personal
I forgot to tell y'all, I'm the only one who knows Shin is gay.
Yumin
Okay... You're sketchy Mr. Lee
Minhyeok
Whatever just get in here, Do I have to get you?
Yumin
No, What kind of Library?
Yumin
Aight, I'll be there
Yumin
Make sure this is worth it
So shocked, I suddenly felt strong hands over my shoulders and pulled me.
Confusion
Just as Yumin is about to walk inside her university.
Yumin and Shin continued art school, Yumin focused on paintings while Shin was an sculpture.
Shin
Why didn't you just stayed home, You dummy
Shin
Do you want me to buy some medications? or Go straight to the clinic?
Yumin
I just got here, I'll be fine later so on
As they both walked to the entrance
Yumin
Shin, Did Minhyeok said anything weird on your date?
Shin
Nothing, I wouldn't consider it as a date anymore, After all
Shin
He said it was a freebie from his colleagues, And he didn't know who to go with
Yumin
But he thought of you though
Shin
He got rejected by the first person he asked out...
Shin
And I'm thinking I was just a replacement...
Yumin
That's BS, Do you want me to beat him up?
Shin
What're you gonna do fly over to their Med school?
Shin
Yes, Yes, Blah blah, It was just an funny coincidence
Shin
It's nothing weird, Let's just go.
Yumin
You really should confess to him, Shin
Yumin
Before it's too late...
Shin
What's there to rush?
Yumin
We're in our twenty's
Shin
You're being too serious
Shin
Anyway, I'll be on my way, Let's have an lunch later!
Sunshi
Someone delivered this.
Classmate #3
Are you getting married, Yummin??
Classmate #3
Everyone, Yumin's getting married!
Shin
Whatever man, I'm feeling drained if you'd mind giving me distance
Cris
Do you want me to get you somethin'?
Yumin
I got you this, My friend sells crocheted things, And I thought you'd like this
Shin
What the heck, This is cute! Thank you Yumin!
Yumin
Pink always suits you better
Shin
Of course they do, They're my favorite!
Unknown
Can you guys toss it back?
Shin
Looks at Yumin signalling hotties in sight/
Shin
Oh! Appa you were there!
Taesung
Did I interrupt you guys with something?
Yumin
Good morning, Uncle!
Taesung
Can we have some private conversation, Shin?
Shin
What did you want to talk about Appa?
Taesung
Are you and Yumin, Together?
Yumin
Why would you think that, Uncle!
Taesung
You guys are like together 24/7, And has been together for 15 or 14 years?
Shin
Yes, But we're only friends, Deep friendship that is
Taesung
Then are you seeing someone?
Shin
Why are you even asking about my love life, Pops?
Taesung
Me and you mom, Would like to have a talk later... At the house
Taesung
It's a family matter.
Yumin
Goodluck with that, Shin
Shin
Sh!t... Did they out found I drank Soju??
Yumin
Anyhow, You shouldn't overthink
Shin
Did... they found out I'm ──
Yumin quickly covered his mouth with her bare palm
Yumin
Shut it, I told you to not overthink!
Yumin
Even if they do it would be great──I mean lying to your parents throughout your life would be a sin... It would give you a lot of burden if you continue But you shouldn't get too freaked out right now, We can find a way
Being homosexual at their house, Was an automatic disowning, It actually happened decades ago, He wasn't disowned he was thrown to the jail and died there.
They never knew why they were so brutal to homosexuals, By means Shin's family is truly homophobic,
And being a male in his family was a big role, Shin is the only one who's male in the three families and It's really risky to leave since he's the only one who can pass their name down.
Yumin
It's fine, Shin! Dang it snap out of it!
Yumin
Your family isn't gonna disown you.
Shin
How can you be so sure...?
Yumin
Aunt Regina is Foreign and I think she will side us, At least we should try... But by without telling
Shin
What should I do? I'm gonna be disowned... I don't want my family abandoning me...
Yumin
It's okay... just calm down, Deep breaths!
The situation's happening right now is Shin having an PTSD, When he was a child he tried telling his parents his homosexual but when he's about to tell them, They had an deep conversation about their family in which came to conclusion of homosexuals and he was mortified when he found out his grandfather was disowned and locked down in Germany's prison.
Yumin
'Fck... I hope this doesn't take a dark turn'
Not knowing what to do, Yumin hugged Shin.
Friendship
Regina
I'll talk to him, Teasung.
Shin
Mom... I'm not ready for relationships
Regina
Dear... It's an traditional for your family, Kang Family to get marry by Twenty two...
Regina
Nothing should change unless...
Shin
I don't like relationships that's all, And I'm too young...
Regina
I'm sorry dear, But your grandma's also demanding for the next generation, You're the only hope of this family so please do it for the sake of our family
Shin
Can't I have more time for myself?
Regina
By seven months you're already twenty-two, Your cousins are married and have babies by now...
Shin
Is that not enough of a new gen?
Regina
No, None of them birthed a boy, The only hope is you, My dear
Since the family has a rule of birthing only one kid per family, It will be considered as one if they are twins/triplets which happened to Taesung, Having twins or triplets is a very rare and fortunes moment for the Kang family, It only happened twice for a whole century and being a male role is a very big opportunity to largen the group of the family but it can only be used if you didn't have a boy.
Shin
What if it was not a boy?
Regina
Since you're the only one carrying the name, You can impregnate the woman you've married until you get a boy.
To the ones who(male) carry the name is considered to have the purest and thickest blood of the Kang family, In every record of Kang families, If you have a secondly birthed female the next is male which is 80% and 15% next male is birthing of a first female while the 5% is giving birth to a first male.
It seems unfair but it's an oath because the Kang family plays a big role from the past and should be past on to generation, And getting marrying is very important for various benefits of the family.
Taesung
Why are you stuttering?!
Regina
Get out of the room, Taesung! I told you I will handle this!
Taesung
Tch... You better make up your mind Shin, This shouldn't slide.
Regina
We have set up blind dates for you──
Regina
You either refuse or get disowned by your family, Shin.
Regina
It's the time to grow up and make choices.
Yumin
'Before it's too late -
Regina
Please, Dear... It seems hard but everyone in this family has to grow out of it, And eventually find happiness
Regina
So choose wisely and judge like a hawk my dear.
Regina
I don't want to lose you dear...
Yumin
Sh!t that looks good...
Yumin
... Whew... I'm done!
Suddenly a knock came from her door.
Yumin
Oh! What're you doing here?
Shin
Can I spend the night here... Just today?
Yumin
Okay... I'll get you some hot chocolate your favorite! Just go to the living room!
Shin
You must've been busy, Sorry I interrupted you
Yumin
No, Actually I just finished!
Yumin
Can you... tell me what happened now?
Yumin
I will help you in anything!
Yumin
Yes, You're my one and only best friend! I will let you take various advantage from me!
Yumin
Don't be sorry, I promise I won't regret it.
Shin
Can... we have an contracted
Yumin
Tell me what happened first, Shin.
After telling everything that happened and gave details about his family's background, Yumin was in complete disbelief.
Yumin
I trust you, I will bear you a child But
To be the real Kang head, Shin should have a child and while telling his part of story they made an plan that started a deal to a contract.
Yumin
Promise me, You'd always look at me as a friend, And Remember this conversation we have, Because I already have someone... in mind, and I'm willing to risk that opportunity for you, And Promise me, Promise me to change your family's will.
Saying such deep words, Yumin gave him her sweetest yet comforting smile.
Shin then shed tears as Yumin pulled him to her shoulder and let him cry freely.
Shin
Thank you... I'm sorry I have to take advantage of you...
Yumin
It's fine... It's better off helping you than doing anything else, You've helped me so many times from the past, so I'm risking it to pay you back.
Yumin pats his back as she stared at the garden of painting she had created, Staring deeply, Knowing everything will go as it flow.
