The Hard-earned Marriage
The very next day,when Mrs.Lee went to the neighborhood market,Iris have a quick chat with her dad and brother regarding her life decision.Both of them agreed to her decision and her dad will try to convince her mum.Isaac is in charge of inviting Vincent to their home for lunch.He even told his mum that Philips is coming for lunch,so that she will cook extra.
When it is time,Vincent came,dressed very formally to meet the Lee family.Mrs.Lee was angry when she realized that she was cheated by the whole family.However,she pretended to be fine by still welcoming him,but not with open arms.
After lunch,Isaac announced to the whole family that Vincent has got an important thing to tell everyone.Nervously,Vincent told the whole family that he and Iris is going to tie the knot.Mrs.Lee is flabbergasted as she never expect this dude to be faster than her favorite Korean guy.She refused to agree over what was said by Vincent.
However,Vincent quickly kneel on the floor,saying that he really loves Iris sincerely and hope to get her blessing.Mrs.Lee asked Iris:'What about Philips?'Iris knelt down together with Vincent, saying:'I turned him down yesterday.I do not think we are compatible.It is best for us to remain as friends.Vincent is my soul mate,though I lost him for a few years,now I have found the him.I am not going to give up upon him whether you like it or not.It is my life and I have the right and responsibility to direct my life.'
Mrs.Lee is still adamant over her decision.She is not going to agree no matter what as this is going to violate her age-old family traditions.When the two guys in the family see no cure to Mrs.Lee's stubbornness,both of them copied the couple by kneeling as well.
Unable to believe that her family is turning their back against her,Mrs.Lee agreed reluctantly to bless both of them in their marriage.
A month later,both Vincent and Iris got married happily.Photographers and wedding planners commented their compatibility with each other.They admired the couple as Iris and Vincent are indeed a beautiful couple.
At the wedding dinner,both of them shared their testimony about their relationship being tough but rewarding,it is not perfect but it is filled with utter sincerity by both parties,accompanied by dash of romance from the groom and lots of love from the bride,just like a wonderful roller coaster ride.
When it is the family's turn to deliver their speech,Mrs.Lee stepped forward and said:'I am really sorry for having prejudice towards my son-in-law.Just because he is not of Korean descent,I refused to acknowledge the love and care he shower upon my darling daughter all these years,from the time he saved my daughter until today.I truly hope that the Tanaka family will forgive me for my ruthless act.From now on,may my blessing be upon this marvelous marriage.'
The Lee family and the new Tanaka couple cheered loudly when this relationship is finally approved.They were relieved that Mrs.Lee finally understood that love can cross the culture and ethnicity boundary.
Hence,the Japanese-Korean couple and their family live happily ever after.Love is indeed a surprise because when you think that it is never here,it arrives;when it is lost,love is found;when love is misunderstood,it manage to make itself clear once more.The most crucial thing is that:Love transcends all understanding.
Thank you for spending time reading this story.Although it might sound amateur,note that I am sincere in terms of the ideas and feelings poured into this series.Anyway,hope that those of you who have yet to find love,finds it;those who lose it,found it again;those who misunderstood each other,resolve this issue and lastly,those who are having it at this precise moment...please treasure it!=)
