Forced to Marry a Teacher

83. Train To Busan (The Unwanted Thing)

In the morning, after breakfast Astrid and Janus immediately prepare to go to Busan, the city where the sister of his mother Janus lived. Astrid and Janus take a fast train from Seoul to Busan. Because the name is also a fast train, the speed is very fast, it only takes about three and a half hours the train has reached the second most populous city in South Korea.

"This is just train to busan" Astrid said as she got off the train.

Janus smiled as he shook his head. "But this isn't in the movie, baby."

Astrid embraced her husband's burly arm. "Yes, luckily there are no zombies like in the movies."

Janus laughed at his wife's ridiculous remark. Just because of his wife's silly and innocent behavior. Janus was able to eliminate the anxiety and discomfort that he felt this morning. For some reason since he arrived in Korea, anxiety and unpleasant feelings continue to be felt Janus. Especially when he arrived at his mother's apartment. Even until now Janus felt restless, if Astrid did not comfort him with a joke. It's possible that Janus couldn't focus like last night when he accidentally dropped the urn on the apartment.

After leaving the train station, Janus and Astrid take a taxi to go to Janus' mother's sister's house. From Janus and Astrid station, they only took a taxi for about thirty minutes, and they arrived in front of the house, which was said to be the residence of Kim Yu Na's younger brother.

While in front of the gate of his aunt's house, how agitated Janus was. Until he made her breathe repeatedly. Astrid then took her husband's hand.

"Calm yourself. And rest assured that after you meet your mother or aunt your feelings will be happy" Astrid smiled.

Janus smiled as he nodded. The gentle touch of Astrid's hand and speech made the restless man a little calmer.

Janus then quickly pressed the bell button beside the gate. It only took three times to press the bell button, a woman in the range around the age of forty years opened the gate. With both eyebrows intertwined, the woman stared at the focus of the child's mere puppet of Kim Yu Na.

"Imo (Auntie)," called Janus to the woman who was looking at him.

She let out her tears, then quickly hugged the man who called her Imo.

"Janus" cried the woman.

"Who is this, your boyfriend?" tanyanya looked at Astrid as she let go of her embrace.

"I am Astrid, his wife, Brother Janus," replied Astrid who immediately realized, that the woman called her husband imo was speaking in Indonesian. "Eh, why do you speak Indonesian," he said astonished.

"My mother, like my mother, used to work in a Korean company in Indonesia. So he's good at Indonesian" explained Janus.

"Oh yeah, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Kim Yu Ri, because you are Janus' wife. You can also call me Yu Ri imo" he said with a smile.

Shortly after Astrid became acquainted, the sister of her mother-in-law let her in. While at home, Astrid is also introduced to the son of Kim Yu Ri or a cousin of her husband. It was unexpected that Janus had two cousins who were still in school. They are named, Park Eun Bi and Park Jun Ho.

After eating, Janus talked to Kim Yu Ri in the living room. While Astrid can only pay attention to those who are chatting in Korean. Who does not know what chatter they are talking about, to make both of them look sad.

Astrid was eager to ask, but it seemed that the conversation Janus and his aunt had was very serious. So Astrid didn't dare to bother them. Astrid was actually very worried when staring at the look on the face of her husband who seemed shocked and also sad. All Astrid did was hold her while gently rubbing her husband's hand.

Shortly after the conversation, Kim Yu Na's younger sister moved out of the middle room. While Janus just silently remained silent while bowing his head. Once again Astrid was eager to ask why her husband looked sad. However, Astrid did not have the courage to ask. To make the words that would come out of his mouth sink.

Then Kim Yu Ri left before long, he returned again while giving a car key to his nephew. After Janus grabs the key to the car that his aunt handed him. Janus stood up from his seat.

"Where are you, brother?" ask Astrid.

"We will see my mother" replied Janus with eyes that looked like they were going to pierce a water.

Astrid stood up from her seat and followed her husband to Kim Yu Ri's car garage.

On the way to meet her mother-in-law. Astrid repeatedly mirrored and improved the look. He seemed very nervous, Astrid repeatedly set her breath. While Janus was just silent while focusing on driving. Her face was still the same as the last time from her aunt's house. He was obviously sad, but I don't know what made him sad. Shouldn't Janus be happy to meet his mother after all this time. Astrid, who was nervous, became worried about her husband's condition.

"Sister, are you okay?" ask Astrid.

"Yes," he replied in a low voice without staring at Astrid.

Before long the car drove, suddenly Janus stopped his speed in the cemetery area. Astrid was surprised why her husband stopped his car at a cemetery. Wouldn't he take Astrid to see her mother. But he took her to a funeral.

"Why are we here. Aren't we going to meet your mother?" astrid asked as she got out of the car.

"We are going to meet my mother" said Janus as he stepped on his feet, his steps followed by Astrid.

One tomb in the name of Kim Yu Na written in hangul letters is listed in the cemetery. Janus knelt in the tomb while shedding tears that had been on his throne earlier.

"This is my mother's tomb" he said, wiping the signboard on the tomb bearing the name Kim Yu Na.

Astrid was shocked when she found out that the tomb in front of her was the tomb of her mother-in-law. Spontaneous Astrid was immediately clutched tightly her husband who was crying while kneeling in front of her mother's grave.

"For years I hated him, because he had left me in Indonesia. I should have refused to be taken to Indonesia, so that I could accompany her when she was sick. I wasn't even next to him in his last moments. I'm stupid Trid, why I didn't realize that he was sick at the time" said Janus, who repeatedly self-injured, with tears breaking in his wife's arms.
