Chapter 80: big day



Monday morning arrived with a fresh sense of anticipation in the air. The sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm, golden glow over the room. Yura and I stirred slowly, still tangled in each other's arms from the night before.

"Good morning," Yura murmured, her voice still thick with sleep.

"Good morning," I replied, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "Ready for the big day?"

Yura stretched, a smile playing on her lips. "As ready as I'll ever be. We've got a lot to do before the banquet tonight."

We lay there for a few more minutes, savoring the quiet intimacy of the morning before the day's events began to unfold. Eventually, we got up and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. We took a shower together, the warm water cascading over us as we discussed the plans for the day.

Once we were clean and dressed, we made our way to the kitchen where the scent of freshly brewed coffee and warm pastries filled the air. The kitchen staff had prepared a sumptuous breakfast spread to start the day off right. There were fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, fresh croissants, and an assortment of fruits and cheeses. A pot of rich, aromatic coffee sat in the center of the table, alongside a jug of freshly squeezed orange juice.

"This looks amazing," Yura said, her eyes lighting up at the sight of the feast.

"It certainly does," I agreed, taking a seat at the table. "Let's enjoy this before the craziness begins."

We sat down and began to eat, savoring each delicious bite. As we enjoyed our breakfast, we discussed the details of the day ahead.

"So, what's on the agenda for this morning?" I asked between sips of coffee.

"Well, first we need to finalize our outfits for the banquet," Yura said, her brow furrowing slightly. "I want everything to be perfect for my mother."

"Of course," I said, nodding. "I'm sure she'll appreciate all the effort you're putting into this."

Yura smiled, a hint of pride in her eyes. "I hope so. After that, we need to pick up the painting from the gallery and get it wrapped. Then we'll head over to the venue to make sure everything is set up properly."

"Sounds like a plan," I said, finishing off my croissant. "Let's get started."

After breakfast, we headed to our walk-in closet to choose our outfits for the evening. Yura had already laid out a few options, but she wanted my opinion before making a final decision. She held up a stunning emerald green dress, its fabric shimmering in the light.

"What do you think of this one?" she asked, holding it against her body.

"It's beautiful," I said, admiring how the color complemented her complexion. "I think it's perfect."

Yura smiled, pleased with my approval. "Alright, this it is. Now, what about you?"

I picked out a sleek, black suit with a crisp white shirt and a dark green tie to match Yura's dress. "How about this?"

"Perfect," Yura said, nodding in approval. "We'll look great together."

With our outfits chosen, we moved on to the next task. We headed out to the car, and I drove us to the art gallery to pick up the painting. The gallery was a small, elegant space filled with beautiful artworks. The owner greeted us warmly, already aware of the special purchase we were there to collect.

"Good morning, Ms. Yura, Ms. Jiyeon," she said with a smile. "The painting is ready for you. It's already wrapped and waiting."

"Thank you so much," Yura said, her eyes shining with gratitude. "My mother is going to love it."

The owner led us to the back of the gallery, where the painting was carefully wrapped in protective packaging. We inspected it to make sure everything was perfect, and then we loaded it into the car.

"One task down," I said as we drove away from the gallery. "What's next?"

"Next, we need to head to the venue," Yura said. "I want to make sure everything is set up just right."

We arrived at the venue, a beautiful event hall situated on the outskirts of the city. The building was grand and elegant, with large windows that let in plenty of natural light. Inside, the decorators were already hard at work, arranging flowers and setting up tables.

"Wow, this place is stunning," I said, taking in the elegant décor.

"It is," Yura agreed. "I wanted something special for my mother's birthday."

We spent the next few hours overseeing the preparations, making sure every detail was perfect. The tables were adorned with crisp white linens and centerpieces of fresh flowers. The chairs were covered in matching fabric, and the lighting was soft and warm, creating a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere.

As we walked through the venue, checking on the final touches, Yura's phone rang. She glanced at the screen and smiled. "It's my mom," she said, answering the call. "Hi, Mom!"

"Hello, dear," came Min-Seo's cheerful voice. "Just wanted to check in and see how everything is going."

"Everything's going great," Yura said, glancing around the beautifully decorated hall. "We're just making sure everything is set up perfectly for tonight."

"I can't wait to see it," Min-Seo said. "I know you've put a lot of effort into this, and I'm sure it's going to be wonderful."

"It will be," Yura assured her. "I'll see you tonight, Mom. Love you."

"Love you too, dear," Min-Seo said before hanging up.

Yura turned to me with a smile. "She's so excited. I really want this to be special for her."

"It will be," I said, squeezing her hand. "You've done an amazing job."

Once we were satisfied with the preparations, we headed back home to relax for a bit before getting ready for the banquet. We spent the afternoon lounging in the living room, watching a movie and enjoying each other's company.

As the time for the banquet drew closer, we began to get ready. Yura looked stunning in her emerald green dress, and I felt a surge of pride and love as I watched her prepare. I put on my suit and tie, making sure everything was perfect.

"You look amazing," Yura said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at me.

"Not as amazing as you," I replied, wrapping my arms around her waist.

We shared a tender moment, holding each other close, before it was time to leave for the banquet. The car ride to the venue was filled with a mix of excitement and nerves. Yura was eager to see her mother's reaction, and I was looking forward to celebrating with our loved ones.

As we arrived at the venue, we were greeted by a flurry of activity. Guests were starting to arrive, and the hall was filled with the buzz of conversation and laughter. We made our way inside, where the staff was putting the final touches on the decorations.

The banquet was set to begin in a few hours, and everything was falling into place perfectly. The tables were set, the flowers were arranged, and the lighting created a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Yura's mother, Min-Seo, arrived shortly after we did. She looked radiant in a beautiful blue dress, her face lighting up with joy as she saw us.

"Yura, Jiyeon!" she exclaimed, pulling us both into a warm embrace. "This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for everything."

"We're so glad you like it," Yura said, her eyes shining with happiness. "We wanted this to be special for you."

"It's more than special," Min-Seo said, her voice filled with emotion. "It's perfect."

We spent the next few hours mingling with guests and making sure everything was running smoothly. The banquet wouldn't start until the evening, but the preparations and the anticipation made the time fly by.

Yura and I took a moment to step outside and catch our breath. The sun was starting to set, casting a warm glow over the landscape. We stood together, taking in the beauty of the moment.

"This is going to be a night to remember," Yura said, her voice filled with a mix of excitement and nerves.

"It definitely is," I agreed, wrapping my arm around her. "And it's all thanks to you."

We shared a quiet moment, enjoying the peace and the anticipation of the evening ahead. The banquet was still a few hours away, but everything was ready, and we were surrounded by loved ones.

As we headed back inside, we were greeted by the sounds of laughter and conversation. The venue was filling up with guests, and the atmosphere was lively and joyful. It was clear that everyone was looking forward to the celebration.

Yura and I took our places, ready to welcome the guests and enjoy the evening. The anticipation was building, and we knew that this night would be one to remember.

The banquet had yet to begin, but the joy and excitement in the air promised a memorable celebration. As the sun set and the evening unfolded, we were ready to celebrate .
