imaginarium.

Kiyong could hear the loud rattle of his chest, enthusiastic to jump off his rib cage and out for her embrace. He patted his upper torso with his shaking palm to calm it down, before a loud, deep breath enveloped his lungs. For a moment, he closed his eyes. His eyes are needless for him to realize the wide grin on his face, the excite and the happily ever after inviting him out. Upon cracking his eyes open, he gazed at his little boy, leaned down to give him a kiss, taking the toddler onto his arm before he followed the wedding planner out. The groom was later then greeted by his very close friends, and the few to twenty invited guest. He bowed his head, and repeatedly thanked them from coming despite the very late invitation and together, they all marched outside to the set up place by the beach.

His heart hopped from his chest as he gazed at the well prepared altar. The guests set onto their respective spots while the priest in charge beamed him a smile, encouraging his footsteps towards his direction. Kiyong passed his clueless little boy to Stephanie, thanking her afterwards for accepting the task to take care of his little boy. He then fixed the crease on his attire, exhaling another one. “I’m ready” He whispered to his being, and then slowly marched his way forward. The groom could sense the collection of eyes pinned at his every movements, but Kiyong knew that those eyes will tear from him and to the most beautiful woman that day — and forever in his eyes. Kiyong placed both of his hands together, greeting the priest with a smile before he tuned his attention forwards, waiting for the love of his life. The sound of piano and strings eloped from their respective instruments and echoed to the wide space, mingling with the cold breeze of post winter, and the simmer of the salted beach. The sun shined enthusiastically down, illuminating the most special day of his life. Kiyong closed his eyes again — for a few seconds, allowing the music, the cheers of his friends and the ever slow footsteps. Second passed, yet it felt days and months — Kiyong cracked his eyes once more, and there he saw her. The love of his life. The soles of her feet sinking onto the wet sand. Half of her face covered by the long veil. Nevertheless, he could picture her on the best of her beauty. Every corner. Every curve. Every inch. The woman he will marry and to live the rest of his life with. Sojin. The one. 

The warm sand hugs the soles of her feet as the female in all white approaches nervously towards her destination. The sun reflected upon the ocean’s waters created the warm ambiance of their little event despite the cooling yet refreshing sea breeze. It was breathtakingly perfect for the bride, -and she can’t help but just be thankful for this day. Today, not only she was blessed with a perfect view on her most special day, but she was also very fortunate to make the man of her dreams become her reality. Make him the only one that she would cherish and keep forever. 

These kinds of situations usually makes her uncomfortable. Every pair of eyes looking towards her and being alone in the spotlight. However, whenever she’s overrun by her passion and desire -she forgets everything else. She knows her destination, and she’s very passionate about it. To be with the man she loves in the altar. It was why her tensed and pursed lips turned into an excited smile in just a blink of the eye. When her eyes first met with his for what seems to be too long, she melts inside. Mouthing a small ‘hi’ while she gets closer to him, she too had to remember how to breath and relax as her eyes starts to swell up. Oh no, she’s certain she’s about to cry... 

With only a feet away she stops her march to greet him. Her one and only, -standing tall and handsome in a white suit. His hair was slightly slicked but it shook gently with the breeze. His eyes reflects the upcoming sunset rays, warm and gentle. He was formal and carefree at the same time, and he looked perfect. It was almost surreal.

She knew there has to be music but all she could hear was the loud pounding of her heart as she took his arm. “Ready?” she asked. Even with just a simple brush of hands sends jolts all over her body. Oh how she just wanted to hug and kiss him in front of everyone under the sunset, -but there’s time for that later.
