Engagement (1/1)
Note:* word – said in English* word – said in Korean* French word (Google trans’ English trans)“So, this is the house of the heir.” Alice told them as they stepped in front of the mansion. xXxXx “Wow~ it’s so big!” Kevin reacted. As they went inside the mansion, they were greeted by the maids and footmen. They waited at the living room until Elizabeth came to meet them. “I’m sorry to keep you waiting.” Elizabeth told them. “No, it’s okay. Where is—” “Oh, ils sont vos visiteurs? (Oh, are they your visitors?)” Anna Beatrice, the second eldest daughter of the heir interrupted. “Yes, they’re my visitors.” Elizabeth said in English. “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t notice earlier that they’re foreigners.” Then, Anna Beatrice ‘smiled’ to them. “By the way, I’m Monica Anna Beatrice Capulet, nice to meet you.” She introduced. “Good morning mademoiselle, I’m Eli Kim, this is Kevin Woo and Kibum Kim.” Eli replied to her. “Nice to meet you, mademoiselle.” Kibum and Kevin said to Anna Beatrice. “Le jardin est prêt, mademoiselle. (The garden is ready, mademoiselle)” One of the maids told Elizabeth. “Je vous remercie. (Thank you)” Elizabeth replied with a smile. “We’re leaving for awhile, eonni.” Alice told to Anna Beatrice. Anna Beatrice suddenly became a little irritated after hearing the word ‘eonni’. She hates it when Elizabeth or anyone around her speaks in Korean. “Okay, enjoy your stay here.” Anna Beatrice told the visitors and gave them a forced smile. xXxXx On the garden, “Have a seat.” Elizabeth offered to them. “I’m glad you made it here.” She told them. “I’m sorry that the others aren’t able to come, Elizabeth-eonni.” Alice told her. “They’re very busy for these coming weeks.” She added. “No, it’s alright. As a matter of fact, I’m very thankful that you’ll cooperate with me.” Elizabeth said. “Noona, where’s Claire?” Kevin immediately asked. “Hmm ... She ...” Elizabeth started. “She’s on the second house with Angeline Marguerite.” And then, she gave the disappointed look. “I’m sorry to disappoint you.” She added. “No, it’s okay noona.” Kevin smiled to her even though it was a forced one. “By the way, where is this ‘second house’? Who owns it?” Kibum asked. “The one who owns it is Angeline Marguerite, our eldest sister. It’s quite near here, actually.” Elizabeth said. “Can we go there?” Kevin asked. “Sad to say, no.” Elizabeth told them. “We’re able go there if Angeline Marguerite is not around.” She added. “When she’ll be not in the second house?” Another question from Kevin. “Sure thing he likes Claire, how impressive.” Elizabeth thought. “If you want to see her there, we’re able to go there the day after tomorrow.” She told them. “She’ll be here because of the engagement and the wedding.” “So, we’re able to meet Claire on that they, right?” Eli said. Elizabeth nodded. “By the way, I already met ‘the guy’.” Elizabeth told them. “The guy?” Alice asked. “The one who’s going to be engage with Claire.” Elizabeth answered. “Who is it?” Alice asked. They were having fun with the tea and biscuits being served to them until Elizabeth revealed who is the guy. “He’s one of my ex-boyfriends.” “What? One of your ex-boyfriends?!” the boys exclaimed. “Don’t be stupid. Elizabeth-eonni is not like me or Claire. She’s quite a playgirl-type.” Alice explained. “So, that’s why she was engaged.” The boys thought. “Don’t be like that, Alice. You’re ruining my reputation.” Then, Elizabeth laughed. xXxXx
While the group was having fun, “Claire Evangeline, répondre à votre fiancé, monsieur Jean-Pierre Yves Montague. (Claire Evangeline, meet your fiancé, monsieur Jean-Pierre Yves Montague)” Claire looked at her eldest sister and the guy she introduced to her. “C'est mon plaisir de vous rencontrer. (It’s my pleasure to meet you)” The monsieur greeted Claire. “Je suis Louise Capulet Evangeline Claire. C'est mon plaisir de vous rencontrer aussi, monsieur Jean-Pierre. (I’m Louise Claire Evangeline Capulet. It’s my pleasure to meet you too, monsieur Jean-Pierre.)” And then, Claire smiled to him. “Ensuite, je vais vivre les deux de vous pendant un certain temps. Apprenez à connaître les uns les autres, d'accord? (Then, I’m going to leave the two of you for awhile. Get to know each other, okay?)” Angeline Marguerite smiled to them and then she left. “Whew” Claire and the monsieur both reacted. “I’m quite surprised you agreed with this engagement. Have you already given up with your love life?” the monsieur told her. “Shut up Yves.” Claire told him. “You know what might happen if I contradict her and mother’s decisions, right?” She added. “I’m just protecting those people who I care the most for.” She started walking. “I know. I know. It once happened between me and your older sister.” Yves followed him. “By the way, why did you agree with this engagement?” She asked. “I already gave up my life to Montague after your sister and I broke up 4 years ago.” He answered. “You really love my sister, don’t you?” Claire teased. “Shut up. You already knew it, why are you still asking me?” He told her. Claire just chuckled. “By the way, what if ‘those people who you care the most for’ are here?” He asked. “What do you mean?” the mademoiselle stopped walking and looked at him. “What do you mean ‘those people who you care the most for’ are here?” she asked. “A message from Elizabeth.” Yves gave a letter to Claire. It was written on Hangul “They’re here. Alice. Eli. Kevin. Kibum. Be prepared.” After reading Elizabeth’s letter, Claire’s eyes opened wide. “What are they thinking?!” She thought.
