Marry First, Love Later"Why are we here at the event center again?"
Minjeong asked her best friend who's been unusually fidgety for the past few minutes ever since they arrived inside the facility.
Looking around, she noticed that there were a lot of people crowding up in front of this stage that had ten computers aligned.
"I need you here, Jeong!"
Yunjin linked her arm to her best friend's, clutching it tightly out of nervousness. Minjeong was confused, though quickly chucked it away and smiled at the latter.
"Need me for what? I have work later, I probably won't be here that long."
"I signed up for a tournament. I've been gaming my whole life and I think this is the only chance I'll get to impress her."
"Impress whom?"
Yunjin pointed a chin toward the stage as her best friend followed and landed her eyes on a short-haired girl who was holding a cue card.
"Huh, isn't that your crush? Chaewon, was it?"
"Exactly! She's the MC of the game tournament today. I want to get noticed... and this is the only thing I'm good at."
Minjeong snickered at her best friend's determination, she looked at her wristwatch to check the time only to see that she was already a minute late at work.
She couldn't help but jump at this and gasp.
Well, it's not like her boss will kill her for this since that girl loves her too much for that. Even so, it's still an insolent behavior, and Minjeong's worried about it.
Her best friend noticed this and laughed at her, she unlinked her arm and patted the latter's back.
"Late at work?"
"Yeah, sorry, Jen. I should go... wish I could support you."
"Oh don't worry, you can."
"What?"
"I called your wife, so don't worry!"
"You what now?!"
As if on timing, Jimin appeared beside her wife and clasped her hand.
Minjeong couldn't help but flinch and put her other hand over her chest to calm her almost panicked thoughts.
Thinking her wife's reaction was cute, Jimin giggled and hugged the shorter lovingly—Of course, the passersby couldn't help but star
