Let's Get Married

They had a passionate night. Eunice doesn’t expect what she would see the first thing in the morning would be the view of the man she spent a night with wearing his clothes, and he is trying to leave in rush.

Eunice stares at the stiffened back of the man. He turns around and speaks to Eunice.

“I was drugged in the wine last night.” A simple sentence describes what happened last night. He isn’t even trying to explain. He is merely describing the fact.

Eunice smiles silently and tries to hold her tears. She looks like a broken doll. She asks carefully, “So?”

Ryan stares at Eunice with a straight face. He could see the countless hickeys on her fair shoulders and her finely sculptured collarbone under the blanket.

These marks seem to be shouting, “Look, you can do it with anyone. Even if she isn’t Lily!”

“Your love? Your self-control? It is all a joke!”

Ryan doesn’t look down on or hate Eunice at all. He is disgusted by himself. He thought he loves Lily but what happened last night crushes all his assumptions.

Ryan has been holding up for so many years, and now, his assumption is overturned. He doesn’t like how it feels like.

This is why when he sees the aggrieved look on Eunice’s face, he says, “I will compensate you.”

‘Compensate me?’

When Eunice hears what Ryan says, she feels like it is a slap on her face. She would rather hear him saying that it was a mistake, or that he was forced. But when he used the word ‘compensate’, Eunice felt insulted.
