On the day of the wedding, reporters gathered in front of the hotel, but Kwon Taejung didn’t provide them with any information. It was absurd to suddenly ask for just one wedding photo, especially when they were so eager to write sensational articles.
Of course, Yigyeom wouldn’t be confined to home; many people would see us together in the future since there were many things I wanted to do with Yigyeom.
It was an inevitable process for them to gradually become known through such activities, and he thought it was a natural process. However, he didn’t want to stand side by side in a photo line and reveal their faces to the public.
He couldn’t find a single reason to expose Yigyeom’s face to others because it seemed too precious to me.
Thanks to calling in advance all the people who would touch Yigyeom’s face and hair and those responsible for the attire to the hotel to minimize Yigyeom’s exposure, they were able to prepare for the wedding in a very peaceful atmosphere. Kwon Taejung sat next to Yigyeom, entrusting his hair to the staff, and stared at Yigyeom’s face in the mirror throughout.
Since it was his first time receiving professional makeup and hairstyling services, Yigyeom seemed very nervous. He sat up straight, with both hands neatly placed on his knees, and even though he was just looking at him, the chair kept turning towards Yigyeom.
“How can your skin be so flawless? It’s so white that you don’t even need a base, and there’s not a single blemish. Your complexion is excellent.”
“…Ah… Thank you.”
“Just apply a thin layer and a tinted lip balm, and you’ll be done.”
Yigyeom, who didn’t know much about makeup, listened attentively to the staff’s instructions and nodded his head, looking at Kwon Taejung. Kwon Taejung had already finished hairstyling and was in the midst of fixing it. Unconsciously, Yigyeom just stared at his graceful profile. He was so handsome that I once again got lost in admiration today.
“Yigyeom, am I handsome?”
“Yes… Very…”
Looking at Yigyeom, who nodded immediately, as if saying, “Yes, very much,” Kwon Taejung turned the chair completely and gently held Yigyeom’s fingers. It felt like heaven that, in just two hours, this lovely child would become completely mine and part of my family. It was truly the first time I had experienced such a long two hours since birth.
“Yigyeom, how can you be beautiful every day? Should I get rid of all the guests? I just want to see this beautiful face.”
The employee, who was probably joking, laughed at the two of them looking good together. Kwon Taejung briefly glared at the employee who made a joke that wasn’t a joke, but soon lowered his gaze. It was a good day, and there was no need to create trouble with others.
“If our family is coming, let’s finish getting ready and go see the venue. They’re curious about how beautiful you are.”
“Yes, okay.”
While fixing the beautifully styled hair, Yigyeom changed into his outfit. It was the first time someone other than Kwon Taejung helped him change, so it felt very awkward. Still, he patiently stood there, looking forward to quickly changing into the outfit and going to the venue with Kwon Taejung, quietly receiving the help of the staff.
“Is there anything uncomfortable for you?”
“Ah… No, there isn’t.”
“If there’s anything uncomfortable before the ceremony starts, please let us know.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Yigyeom greeted the kind staff with a bow and looked blankly at me as Kwon Taejung approached. While choosing various outfits, he felt this, but seeing Kwon Taejung, who was so tall, had a good proportion, and even had a splendid physique, wearing a suit suited him perfectly.
“Wow…”
“Am I cool again?”
“Yes… You look really, really cool… Chief.”
“It’s the day of the wedding, and you’re calling me Chief?”
“If I call you ‘babe’… you know, you said you’re… like that.”
Kwon Taejung tilted his head, shrugged his shoulders, and looked at Yigyeom, who seemed unsure of what he was talking about, as if he didn’t know what to say, remembering the words that calling him ‘babe’ made him uncomfortable.
“What did I say?”
“Yesterday… after the rehearsal, when we lay down on the bed again… when I called you ‘babe,’ you…”
“Yeah, I did.”
“Every time you hear me call you ‘babe,’ you, um, said… so I decided to call you that again after the wedding…”
Trying to vividly explain the situation from the previous night, Yigyeom looked at Kwon Taejung with pleading eyes, desperately wanting him to understand. Even though Kwon Taejung wanted to play a little more, he couldn’t help but laugh at those eyes, which begged him to understand.
“Oh, right. I said that. I almost got caught before the ceremony.”
He laughed with a relieved expression as if saying it was fortunate. Kwon Taejung’s face, smiling as if relieved, was very lovely. Kwon Taejung wanted to mess up Yigyeom right away, but he consciously suppressed his Alpha instincts, reminding himself that today was the wedding day.
It was so painful not to be able to immediately admire what was beautiful and not to be able to bite what was lovely. I was thirty-two years old, and I had to gracefully endure all these situations and embrace Yigyeom beautifully. So, I decided to exercise the patience of thirty-two.
“Babe, what’s this ribbon? I don’t think I’ve seen this before.”
“Oh… You said it would be prettier if I wore this too.”
“Ha… This is driving me crazy.”

“Should I take it off if it looks strange?”

Kwon Taejung thought it was the right time to stop the explicit words and tried to express the situation nicely.
“You’re beautiful. I didn’t ask because it looked strange; I was just so surprised. How can you be so beautiful?”
“I’m glad if it suits me.”
“It’s not just about suiting you. It’s driving me crazy. Wait a moment, Yigyeom. I can’t take it.”
Holding Yigyeom’s hand, Kwon Taejung led him to an empty corner of the preparation room. He tilted his head and lightly kissed Yigyeom’s moist lips. Although he wanted to indulge in kissing like crazy, he couldn’t do that, and it was frustrating.
“Stick your tongue out a little.”
Knowing what Kwon Taejung was saying and the meaning behind it, Yigyeom, with a flushed face, slightly extended the tip of his tongue. Kwon Taejung’s tongue gently met the tip, teasing it outside the lips.
“Mmm…”
“Ha…”
The more he kissed, the more intense the fire burning within, reaching down to the lower abdomen, and Kwon Taejung, with his tongue gently sucking, withdrew, not wanting to make Yigyeom uncomfortable.
“I’m dying to kiss you.”
“…I want to… too…”
“After the ceremony, I’ll continue. I set everything up like this, so we can’t mess it up.”
With a quiet nod, Yigyeom raised his pheasant foot. Smiling at the sight of Yigyeom, who wanted to touch him, Kwon Taejung’s lips met and parted, releasing a fragrant scent as he withdrew. With just one kiss from Yigyeom, he felt like he could endure and hold on for hours.
“When it’s over… Please do it a lot, a lot.”
“Can I really do it a lot, a lot, by my standards?”
“Yes, a lot, a lot.”
Ah, where did such a beautiful child come from? Kwon Taejung, who admired it once again, held Yigyeom’s hand and left the dim preparation room. Today, Yigyeom shouldn’t be in such a dark place. He had to be in the brightest and most fragrant place.
“I wonder how the venue is decorated.”
“Yes, even just looking at the other wedding photos you showed me last time was so, so beautiful…. Ah….”
Walking up to the venue with Kwon Taejung, Yigyeom couldn’t continue speaking when he saw the bright and cheerful interior through the open door. The path adorned with beautiful green trees and flowers was so beautiful, as if it came straight out of a fairy tale. It was the first time he had seen such a beautiful place.
“Do you like it?”
“…It’s really, really, really beautiful.”
Seeing Yigyeom, who couldn’t take his eyes off the flowers and trees inside the venue, Kwon Taejung, who felt relieved, wrapped his arms tightly around his waist from behind. The venue, which was crisp and vibrant, suited my taste as well. Asking for the best venue without thinking about money and negotiating the design together was rewarding.
“I’ll make it the most beautiful day in the world for you.”
“……”
“A day that makes you smile whenever you think about it, a day that fills your heart, Yigyeom-ah.”
Holding Kwon Taejung’s firm hand on his stomach, Yigyeom turned his head and smiled. It was so happy that he couldn’t express it simply with the words “happy.” Kwon Taejung couldn’t figure out how to convey this happiness to him. To express this happiness, which was too big to be described with a simple word.
“Later, we’ll walk down this path, just like we practiced yesterday. Ah, just thinking about it makes me happy.”
His heart was so full that words didn’t come out easily. Yigyeom answered by tightly gripping Kwon Taejung’s hand more firmly. If he said anything, he felt like tears would come out.
Yigyeom finally turned his head to look at Kwon Taejung. Even at the moment their eyes met, he had to endure as if tears would come out at any moment.
“It’s strange. I can’t say anything, but I can hear all the answers.”
“……”
“Yeah, I love you too.”
Smiling gently, Kwon Taejung embraced Yigyeom and whispered happiness into his ear for a long time. Until the overwhelming happiness, which felt like tears, spread through laughter and dyed Yigyeom’s lips with a smile.
***
Yigyeom greeted his brothers, who came to see him, sitting in the waiting room adorned with flowers like the venue, where he could exchange greetings with the guests and take pictures. Accustomed to seeing them in casual clothes while working, Kang Jihoon and Yoo Jaemin, dressed neatly, looked like completely different people.
“Hey, Yigyeom. You’ve really succeeded. Your life has turned upside down.”
“Hey, is that something to say to someone who’s getting married now?”
“Oh, I didn’t swear or anything. Geez.”
“That’s swearing. Hey, Yigyeom. Ignore what he says.”
As Kang Jihoon and Yoo Jaemin squabbled, they reflexively turned around at the sound of other footsteps echoing in the waiting room. Then, looking at Kwon Taejung approaching, they were surprised and opened their mouths.
“Oh, the dog and cat cosplayers are here.”
“Oh, hello…”
Unlike usual, Kang Jihoon and Yoo Jaemin, who usually greeted casually with both hands, politely bowed their heads to Kwon Taejung. Knowing their usual behavior, Kwon Taejung lightly patted each of their shoulders as if to say it’s enough.
“Thanks for coming to congratulate Yigyeom.”
“Of course, I had to come! I’ve been working part-time with Yigyeom for a long time, and it’s time to help each other!”
“Thanks for treating Yigyeom well. I’ll remember it. Well, we probably won’t work together anymore, but still, take care of each other. I’ll do well for you. Of course, materialistically.”
“Wow… Hyung, you’re really cool.”
Smiling at the words that sounded like those of his peers, Kwon Taejung gestured for them to stand beside Yigyeom. He wanted to capture the moment with the people who came to congratulate Yigyeom. Kwon Taejung, next to the photographer who came to take on-site photos, took pictures of Yigyeom and his friends with his phone.
“Taejung-ah, Mom is here.”
As Kang Jihoon and Yoo Jaemin went out, Kwon Taejung’s family entered the waiting room. Kwon Taejung, wearing a very fine hanbok, greeted his mother, who was lightly holding him, with a light hug and exchanged greetings.
“Our son looks so handsome today. Congratulations on your marriage, Taejung. Mom is so happy. Live happily with Yigyeom and our little chick for a long, long time. Got it? Mom only has one wish.”
“I’ll make Mom’s wish come true. Don’t worry. I’m happier than ever.”
“Yeah, our Taejung will do well. Trust him.”
Once again, Kwon Taejung hugged his youngest and patted his back. This time, Kwon Taejung’s mother, who had just hugged him, approached Yigyeom. Smiling widely as she looked at the very pretty Yigyeom.
“Yigyeom-ah, you’re so pretty. How can you be so pretty?”
“Mom is even prettier. The hanbok suits you so well…”
“Our baby speaks so nicely.”
Kwon Taejung’s mother, embracing Yigyeom with open arms, gently patted his back. Yigyeom, too, faced her mother’s warm back, feeling a pleasant fragrance and exchanged smiles.
“Yigyeom, thank you so much for loving Taejung. Also, thank you for coming to our family, and you know that we all love you, right?”
The affectionate and warm words easily melted Yigyeom’s soft heart. Yigyeom held back the tears, nodding slightly.
“…I’m, I’m more thankful. For accepting me, and for letting me be with Chief… And… Thank you so much for loving me.”
“With such kindness and beauty, I can only love you. Yigyeom. From now on, only good things will happen. I’ve said it before, but now our baby has a reliable Taejung, and with Mom, Dad, Noona, and Hyung, don’t worry about anything. Got it?”
“Yes…”
Instead of tears about to burst out, Yigyeom smiled and nodded. Then, as his father approached, he lightly hugged him and exchanged warm greetings.
“If you feel a bit uncomfortable, tell me anytime.”
Looking at his father, who was turning the good atmosphere into an awkward one, Kwon Taejung, along with Kwon Yoojung and Kwon Kijung, approached his father, who was looking at them in amazement.
“Oh, Dad. Why would I make Yigyeom uncomfortable? I’m not like that.”
“Kwon Taejung, getting married is a happy and joyful event, but at the same time, it’s a significant change in your and Yigyeom’s lives. Never forget that. When you speak, think twice before speaking, and when you want to act in anger, think about Yigyeom and our little Piyak again. Got it?”
Even though it was the last piece of advice, Kwon Taejung laughed looking at his father, whose eyes were endlessly warm. Then he bowed slightly and hugged his father, who was firm and whom he loved so much.
“Yes, Dad, I’ll do exactly what you’ve done for Mom and what you’ve done for my sister and brother.”
“Then it’s perfect. Congratulations, our youngest.”
“Dad, I love you.”
“Disgusting, you rascal.”
“He says that while liking it. Our Dad.”
Laughter filled the waiting room. Yigyeom looked at the faces of the people laughing one by one. The mother’s laughter, which made him feel the vague presence of the mother who had been unknown before, and the sister and brother’s laughter, which always handed him sweet and delicious things, and the seemingly strict but, in fact, warmer, Dad, who had the sweetest laughter than anyone else.
And…
The laughter of Kwon Taejung, which had colored his entire world with love.
“……”
Yigyeom’s lips moved gently. With an overflow of warm and affectionate emotions, Yigyeom, too, smiled along with Kwon Taejung and the family. Laughter and voices reached the ears from various directions, making the gaze wander around.
And finally, that gaze landed on the only person for Yigyeom, Kwon Taejung. Yigyeom approached, looking up at Kwon Taejung, who embraced him with one arm.
“It would have been nice if Grandpa had seen us getting married.”
“…Yes. It would have been really nice… I regret it.”
“I’ll do even better so that Grandpa can be far away without any worries. Let’s go say hello to Grandpa at the place where he is when we return from our honeymoon.”
Smiling, Yigyeom nodded and lightly patted Kwon Taejung’s cheek. It was unexpected and heartwarming for him to bring up Grandpa’s thoughts first.
“Thank you, Chief… I didn’t expect you to think about Grandpa’s thoughts.”
“Of course, I should. Yigyeom’s family is family to me. And besides, he really liked me.”
Leaning down to look at the face coming closer, Kwon Taejung closed his eyes and lightly kissed the lips that met his own, causing laughter to erupt above those lips. Yigyeom warmly smiled, savoring Kwon Taejung’s laughter that spread through the touching lips.
Five minutes before the wedding ceremony, guided by the staff, Yigyeom stood at the beautifully decorated starting point of the aisle. Thinking that he would soon walk down this aisle with Kwon Taejung, he couldn’t breathe properly due to nervousness.
“Yigyeom, are you nervous?”
Feeling the trembling arms touching, Kwon Taejung looked at Yigyeom, who was shaking, tilted his head, and quietly pressed his lips to Yigyeom’s forehead. Then, with lips touching the ear, he whispered a ticklish sound.
“It’s okay to be nervous now. Once we start walking together, everything will be fine. I’ll adjust everything, so just walk comfortably. Your walking speed, stride, and matching steps, I’ll take care of everything. So, our Yigyeom, just be happy.”
Holding Yigyeom’s trembling hand firmly, Kwon Taejung whispered, not causing any pain. Now that the ceremony inside the venue was starting, Baek Jinwoo, who was in charge of today’s wedding, was delivering his greetings.
– Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to attend and congratulate Kwon Taejung and Yeon Yigyeom’s wedding, even though you are busy.
As the lights in the guest seats became a bit darker, the two began to walk down the vibrant and bright path. Kwon Taejung leaned in to Yigyeom, whispering playfully as they walked down the aisle.
“But honestly, I have one concern.”
“…Concerns?”
“Yeah. The aisle is longer than I thought… What if I want to kiss along the way? Maybe we should do it once in the middle?”
At Kwon Taejung’s joking attempt to ease the tension, Yigyeom finally let out a small laugh. Kwon Taejung, now relieved, held Yigyeom’s hand even more firmly, ensuring it wouldn’t loosen under any circumstances.
-Now, we will begin the beautiful wedding ceremony of Kwon Taejung and Yeon Yigyeom. We sincerely ask for your generous blessings as they start this new chapter together, just as you have joined us on this special occasion.
The lights converged on the starting point of the aisle. Yigyeom took a deep breath, looking at the radiant light approaching his and Kwon Taejung’s toes and the beautiful path spread out before them. Then, he raised his head and met eyes with Kwon Taejung. He wanted to convey something he had been wanting to say since earlier, but it didn’t come out due to overwhelming emotions. It was the right time now.
“You said you would make the most beautiful day in the world. A day that, whenever I think of it, brings laughter and fills my heart… That kind of day.”
“Yeah. Our Yigyeom will never forget it.”
Raising the intertwined hands firmly, Yigyeom kissed Kwon Taejung’s knuckles, smiling.
“All the days spent with Chief… are like that to me.”
“……”
“Thinking about it brings happiness, laughter, and it’s just so beautiful.”
“……”
“I’ll be happy. With you, Chief.”
Tears and laughter came at the same time. And in that moment, accompanied by the instruction to enter, a brilliant light poured down, illuminating the path for the two of them to walk together, with synchronized steps, towards happiness. The light was so bright that it could dispel any darkness. Kwon Taejung looked at Yigyeom with eyes moistened with happiness.
“Let’s be happy, Yigyeom.”
As both feet moved into the light simultaneously, the moment was completely captured in the light. A light that overflowed with nothing but love for the two people walking toward happiness. Kwon Taejung filled his eyes and heart with Yigyeom, sparkling more than the light itself.
