So what do you say?” He asked
“About?” Shinhye asked
“You weren’t listening all this time, leave it” he said frustrated “Exactly what are you thinking that you aren’t listening to me? Are you already bored with me?” Minho asked
“What? Now why would you think such a thing oppa?” Shinhye asked confused with his assumption
“Well I have been going on about our wedding and you are too involved in your thoughts.” He said
“I am sorry oppa” she sincerely apologized because she had truly zoned out. “I was thinking about your mother” she stated
“Why, what were you thinking?” he asked
“Have you told her?” Shinhye asked
“No” he said and didn’t bother saying more.
“You have to tell her oppa, she is your mother and she will get hurt if she heard it from someone else.”
“I fear she might just cause problems and I don’t want---
“I know oppa but I also know that you really wish she would bless our relationship. Tell her and then let her decide to come or not. Hmm?” She cutely asked
Shinhye was right, he really hoped his mother would finally accept her. His mother and Shinhye are the two most people in his life and it breaks his heart to have to choose. But Shinhye is right and he would do as she said and invite his mother.
“Okay, happy?” he asked
“Ne! So what was it you were saying before?” she asked
“Now you want to know? Unfortunately for you dear, I am not in the habit of repeating myself” he said
“Tell me please, hmm? Oppa?” she begged
“I said we should register our marriage first before the wedding. We could go to the court and do it, what do you think?” he asked
“Yes, we can go with Krystal as the witness” she said
“We can do it tomorrow” he suggested.
“Okay oppa, let’s do it.” she said and they sealed it with a kiss.

After registering their marriage Minho felt more confident in talking to his mother about their upcoming wedding. Because after signing their names on that paper Shinhye was already his wife by law and nothing would change that. So he went to his mother and the two had a quiet dinner together and after Minho stated his reason for the visit.
“I found Shinhye” he said and watched his mother’s face grow lines as she frowned. “We have decided to get married mother” he said
“What?!!!!!!!” She shouted and hit the table. “I demand you stop this foolishness my son, why can’t you see that girl isn’t good for you?”
“Shinhye is the right woman mother we will get married with or without you. The wedding will be next week and we wish you would come and celebrate with us.” He said meaning every word that came out his mouth
“Then why are you here when you don’t care about what I think?” she asked frustrated and hurt by his words.
“Because mother, that girl you are so against suggested we inform you so you don’t hear it from others. Yes mother Shinhye is that kind of girl, she really doesn’t want us to grow apart but it is clear you don’t want to mend this relationship. I will leave now mother and I really hope you come to our wedding.” He said and excused himself
Minho’s mother watched her son’s back as he walked away from her. She didn’t want to hurt he son but—
……………
“How did it go with your mother oppa?” Shinhye asked
“Just as I knew it would.” He said dismissively. “She is still as uncooperative as before”
Shinhye could see his hurt and felt bad for him. Being he only had his mother and she wasn’t supportive of his choice must be very hard for him really. If her family hadn’t liked him she would have been so hurt so she understood his pain. “We have to give her time. She spent many years envisioning you with your ex so she must need time to let go of that dream before she can accept this knew one you are presenting. In her mind Sena was the perfect match for you so it can’t be easy for her to accept me who is not up to par in comparison with her. Let’s give it time am sure she will in time accept us oppa”
“Time?” he said not too sure time would change anything
“Hmm, time. If she is anything like her son then she will definitely fall for my charms soon or later” she confidently said. “But really we just have to love each other more each day and be happy, once she sees her son happy then she will realize I am not that bad.”
“You are right, show her how happy we are and she will accept you. Let’s do that.”

Shinhye and Minho went together to the wedding dress shop and Shinhye went to the dressing room to choose as he waited outside. Later the curtain was opened and Shinhye appeared in a princess gown.
“What do you think?” she asked and Minho looked at her. “Try on another one” he said and Shinhye did just that. This went on until when she came out wearing a lace gown that hugged her curves in the right places and Shinhye really looked elegant and classy in it. The shop attendant brought a crown to go with the gown and Shinhye asked again. “What do you think oppa?” he could see that Shinhye liked this one and he also like it. The others before Minho could sense she wasn’t fully into them but with this she was glowing and he would marry her there and then.
“I think it is perfect dear, I love it” he said
“Me too oppa” she said and Minho wasn’t surprised.
He also tried on a suit and the couple posed for some pictures and Shinhye forwarded the pictures to her mother and Krystal. And just like her they love the dress and the advised her to buy it.
