Chapter 66 - Marriage & B (1/1)

Daesung and Steph returned from visiting his parents not long after their confrontation. Nothing was said between the two as they arrived at the YG dorms where they would be staying in while they were in Korea. Steph hoped out of the car, ignoring the call coming from behind her before walking towards the building. She just wanted peace and quiet, she wanted to keep her distance from him for a while. Hoping into the nearest elevator, she rode it up to a floor before climbing off and walking down the hall. Stopping in front of a door, she sighed before knocking slightly and waiting. Listening to the sound of the chain being unlocked before it was pulled open, she smiled at the person on the other side.“Oh, Steph.” Jiyong mentioned surprised as she smiled, holding her hands together at her waist.“Are you looking for Hoku-ah?” He asked gesturing over her shoulder before she nervously chuckled before nodding.“Come on in.” He ushered stepping aside before she walked in, letting him shut the door behind him.“Someone’s here for you.” Jiyong announced as Hoku looked up from the book she was reading on the couch, sending a smile across her face.“There is the other mama to be.” Hoku teased shutting her book before adjusting her reading glasses.“Well I’ll be in the room.” Jiyong took the hint and quickly scurried out of the room as Hoku patted the extra space next to her on the couch.“So what’s up?” Hoku asked noticing the look on her friends face while she plopped down next to her. Steph rested her head back against the couch, staring up at the ceiling before sighing loudly.“Dae took me to tell his parents.’ She whispered as Hoku’s eyes shot open. She adjusted her seat, now sitting on her legs while facing Steph.“Wait? You guys drove down to his parents place?” Hoku asked flabbergasted as Steph nodded.“What did they say?” Hoku asked eagerly as Steph flung her head forward before hanging it in front of her.“They hate me like the plague.” Steph whispered as Hoku scooted over before putting a comforting arm around her friend.“They don’t hate you, they are just misunderstanding you is all.” Hoku mentioned resting her forehead on her friends temple.“His mom called me a whore when Dae mentioned I was pregnant.” Steph added as Hoku pulled back gasping.“What a Bitch….I-I mean, how dare she?!” Hoku snapped causing Steph to chuckle.“It’s alright though, It was the type of reaction I was expecting from the start.” Steph sighed as Hoku grimaced.“It’ll take some time for them to get used to you, I’m sure they have had it in their minds for years about traditional marriage. They’re just going to have to live with it and slowly begin to accept the inevitable.” Hoku explained as Steph nodded in agreement.“You’re lucky though, Jiyong’s parents and sister LOVE you.” Steph teased as Hoku chuckled.“Well I was beyond nervous when I first met them, I thought they would be evil.” Hoku jokingly admitted causing Steph to smile.“So how are you feeling? Anything new?” Hoku asked changing the subject as she gestured with her eyes down to her stomach. Steph just chuckled, placing her hands on it before shaking her head.“No, nothing new, I’m not sick anymore, which I’m actually proud about.” Steph mentioned causing Hoku to snort.“Well lucky you, I had morning sickness for 4 months.” Hoku spat rubbing her protruding belly as Steph smiled.“Have you forgiven Jiyong yet?” Steph then asked as Hoku kept her eyes to her stomach before sighing.“I haven’t fully forgiven him, I’m getting by day by day, slowly forgiving him, but there are times when my heart won’t let go of the past.” Hoku explained while Steph nodded.“I just don’t want to go through heartache again, especially when a child is involved now. My child.” Hoku laid her head back before tilting over to see her friend.“He loves you Hoku-ah. A lot.” Steph admitted smirking as Hoku snorted and rolled her eyes.“Everyone says that.” Hoku whispered looking to the ceiling. Steph just smiled and stared at her friend, from her perspective, she still loved the man to death, but she was having an inner battle with herself.“Just give it time girl, you’ll come around to realizing how much he means to you.” Steph teased poking her friends protruding stomach.“How are you doing?” Steph then asked seriously as Hoku looked over to see her worried eyes. She knew she was talking about the incident that had happened a few weeks ago. Hoku turned her attention back to her hands resting on her stomach.“Um.” Hoku whispered trying to control the hurt and sadness that was still flowing through her.“I’m slowly letting go.” Hoku whispered in a shaky voice causing Steph to nod and hold her friends hand.“If you ever want to talk, I’m here.” Steph whispered as Hoku smiled, holding her hand.“Thanks.” Hoku whispered while Steph nodded. Hoku and Steph quickly brought up their pregnancies in turn to get rid of the awkwardness that had spread through the room. Hoku was able to give pointers to Steph, making sure that she knew what to do when certain things would come.“So when’s the big day?” Hoku then asked as they looked through pregnancy magazines.“Big Day?” Steph asked over never moving her eyes from the cute photos of nurseries in front of her.“Big Day, as in when are you guys getting married?” Hoku asked as Steph quickly looked over before hiding her finger.“Please girl, it’s a little late to be hiding that, plus, Daesung told everyone while you were in the hospital.” Hoku explained as Steph blushed before sighing.“I don’t know, we haven’t really talked about it.” Steph mentioned embarrassed causing Hoku to chuckle.“Well he did say you wanted to get married before you were HUGE.” Hoku added tapping her large stomach while Steph chuckled.“Yah, that would be ideal.” Steph added as Hoku smiled.“What about you and Ji? Any plans?” Steph asked as Hoku chocked back on air before looking over.“Us?” She asked gesturing to herself while Steph nodded confused.“Not sure if that’ll happen.” Hoku spoke causing Steph to shut her magazine and turn to Hoku.“Why not?” She asked as Hoku sighed, looking over.“Not sure if I’ll be able to handle being the wife of the ‘G-Dragon’. I mean, I tried being the girlfriend of him and look where its gotten us.” Hoku pointed out while Steph nodded.“Well I’m sure, he wants to.” Steph muttered smiling as Hoku rolled her eyes and went back to her magazine. Marriage would be something in the future, or something of a dream for the already broken couple.
