Dwindling Faith and Unspoken Confession
Tags: friends to lovers; marriage for convenience / fake marriage; pining
Previous
Your mom already left. She rode the bus scheduled to leave in the afternoon after she gave you an earful sermon about marriage. But you decided to go to the city river and contemplate the things she said.
You hate the disappointing look she had in her eyes. Your life revolved around her approval and making her smile. Ever since her divorce with your Dad, your 8 years old mind made it a goal to make her happy and to not make your sister feel the abscence of a father figure. Despite all of the efforts, you never once felt you are enough. The one time you think she genuinely smile was during your graduation and her hugged validated your whole being.
"Getting married without letting me know. This is not you. Do you even understand the whole deal of being married?" After a long silence, these are her words to you. She is right. It's not a norm for you to jump on risky decision. You are calculative. You want assurance and safety net if all else fail. "It may be fun right now but years later? Where will you be? Divorced like me? Your dad and I dated each other for 3 years before getting married but look what happened. You and Wonwoo..."
She looked at you and you know she is trying to find the right words. And you know how her words always bite.
"Wonwoo is a nice kid but this is so abrupt. It's like you agreed without thinking. Men changes as they age. You'll never know when you are done being the apple of their eyes and next thing you knew he is now meeting a younger and more beautiful woman than you."
"Mom..." Your throat starts to feel constricted.
"Next thing you knew he will be serving you a divorce paper and you will realize your life revolved around him but to him you are just something he can dispose easily."
"That's you and dad, Mom. That's your life, not mine." You said so softly. You can feel the heaviness of your head. She shrugged what you said then gave you the dishes she cooked for you.
You took a deep breathe. You know that your life path is different than hers but your mind is tricking you to dive in this pool of anxiety. Your parents were in love but still this happened. On the other hand, you are just the only one in love in this marriage. You call it a wishfull thinking but you hope the friendship you have with him will be enough.
The raging thoughts ended when a message notification popped out from your phone. It's Wonwoo.
Wonwoo: Done meeting with Mom. :) Are you still with your Mom?
You: No. She already went home.
Wonwoo: Already? That's new.
Wonwoo: Are you already home?
You: I'm here at the cafe in riverbanks. I'll go home in a bit.
Wonwoo: Okay. I'll go there. Let's go home together.
It took 30 minutes for Wonwoo to reach you. When he saw you, he immediately notice your dark aura. He knew something went wrong. He took all the paper bags in his right hand. Wonwoo took your hand with his free hand like it belongs there. You felt safe and secured whenever he is around.
The sun is setting and rays of sunshine falling against his face. You held his hand tighter and enjoyed the moment. Trying to imprint it on your mind. Telling yourself that if all else fail, you will still be grateful you were given a chance to marry the love of your life.
Even in the drive on your way home which is just 10 minutes away from his place, he held your hand in every chance he gets. Upon arriving at home, you both organize the dishes in the ref.
"How did it went?" You asked him after keeping all the dishes. Wonwoo took out a tub of coffee ice cream and two spoons then pulled you to seat at the sofa.
"She's sad." Your shoulders fell down upon hearing it. You felt like everyone is against this. Wonwoo noticed it so he pinched your nose. "She is sad we did not invite her but Mom is so happy that it is you who I married."
Happy is an understatement. Wonwoo's mom is so excited knowing that you are her son's end game. She has been rooting for you and thought that Wonwoo has no chance on you.
"She said I made a good choice." Wonwoo nudged you lightly. He took a spoonful of ice cream and feed you. "When did I make a wrong choice?"
You laughed at his arrogant statement. Good choice. Funny how your mom criticize your decision to marry him but his mom praised this choice. You can't blame her. She has a different background and history than his mom.
"Congratulations for formally ending the endless blinddates." You shove a spoonful of ice cream to his mouth. Wonwoo grimaced at the cold and swallowed it while giving you a death stare. Without wiping his mouth, he gave you a kiss on your cheeks.
"Thank you for marrying me, wife." He grinned upon seeing the ice cream marks on your cheek.
"You are disgusting!" You took a tissue and wipe it away but giggled.
And there it is again, Wonwoo falling all over again. Head over heels. For some people falling in love makes everything goes slowmo but for him, it makes everything fast forward. He can see you laughing with him toothless and grey hair. Wrinkled skin and all but still loving you.
Wonwoo reached for your face to wipe the ice cream that were not removed. "How was it with your mom?"
You just smiled at him. Wonwoo's knows that smile. The smile that did not crinkle your eyes nor showed your dimples. It did not go well.
"She is worried." To put it in simpler terms. You don't know how to explain it to him that your mom went on assuming that he will cheat on you and leave you like an old rug. "Mom is just scared that I will walk on her path too."
Wonwoo knows your family story. Too well that he actually have a personal grudge on your dad. You remember how he went with you when your dad asked to meet you after 2 decades. He sat on a different table but made sure you can see him. You thought he is making ammends, but the truth your Dad wants to ask for a financial help upon hearing you graduated from college and got a great job in the city.
"Her concern is valid." Wonwoo said then took your hand and caress it gently. "Do you want me to talk with her?"
"She is still has clouds on her head right now. Not the best time." No words will come out from her nicely. Wonwoo nodded respecting your request. You just observed him eat with frown on his eyebrows and you know he is thinking how to make you feel okay.
"Can you promise me?" Wonwoo look at you with spoon on his mouth. You know this is ridiculous but you just want to say it to calm your heart. "If one day you find the one who made you fall in love, can you give me like heads up that you will divorce me and not surprised me with a divorce paper on the table?"
You laughed to make it light hearted, but Wonwoo's frown grew deeper. Suddenly, you feel scared. It is like you stepped on a landmine.
"We are not talking about this." Wonwoo said firmly. He dig the spoon on the ice cream tub then look straight at you.
"It's just a possibility, Won."
"And I don't like it. One week into marriage and we are talking about divorce." He scoffed and rolled his eyes. "It's bad luck."
"Are you serious? Since when did you became superstitious?" You laughed at him who is still frowning.
"I'm serious." You reach his cheeks and gently tap it. You can't help but smile upon noticing his pout. "I'm stucked with you until the end of my life. But of course, if you want me to leave..."
"Okay fine. We won't talk about it anymore." You cupped his cheeks. He looks adorable sulking right now. You giggled at how cute he looks right now.
Years since college but he can still make your heart flutter. You studied his face and took your time gazing on him without realizing that Wonwoo is staring at you with love. When you noticed his stares, you can feel him slowly crossing the distance between you.
You can feel the whole world moves in slow motion. You can feel your heart beat accelerating. When his lips found yours, your fears flew out of the window. Your hand encircled on his neck as he deepened the kiss.
This is different from the first kiss you shared with out of curiosity. This not like the kiss you shared with because both of you are drunk. This kiss blurs all the worry and fears you have.
Wonwoo wrap his arm around your waist and pull you on to his lap. You pulled away from him to breathe. You removed his eyeglasses slowly before lowering your face to capture his lips.
If this is greed, you are willing to sin because you want more of him. All the times you thought that you can settle for loving him from afar but now all you want is every inch of him.
And then one thing lead to another. Every corner of his apartment were filled by whispers of his and your name. Surrendering to each other because you both know that tomorrow will come and you still both have each other.

Let's talk about these episode titles...
I've been thinking about the episode titles of episodes 7x04 and 7x05 and how they are both titles of very specific songs. A lot of people have talked about this and I probably reblogged or liked most of these posts. :)
It might all seem like a bit of harmless fun and wishfull thinking, but if you look closer at the lyrics of these songs and you compare them to the episodes, a lot of things start making more sense. (Or I could just be clowning away, but in all honesty, I think we're onto something here.)
Let's start with 7x04: Buck, bothered and bewildered
This episode is shown from Buck's point of view and how he seems to be jealous of Eddie and Tommy's friendship, although it isn't very clear who exactly he's jealous of. At the end he reveals he wanted Tommy's attention, but Tommy doesn't seem to be too sure of that with his 'My attention?', which makes sense because Buck kept talking about Eddie and he kept peacocking in front of Eddie. We see Eddie from his POV, bubbly and happy, no care in the world and not really in tune with Buck's feelings of jealousy. Buck's feelings of abandonment rear up again.
To tie this in with the song 'Bewitched, bothered and bewildered', there is this specific part in the lyrics that talks about a 'half-pint imitation' of the real love the singer craves for. Now, I'm not saying that Tommy is half-pint 'anything', because he seems like a good guy. But it's the part about the 'imitation' that caught my eye. Throughout the entire episode Tommy and Eddie are compared to eachother. Even Buck talks about it.
They have the same interests, both are veterans and they even dress similar. In that sense Tommy is an 'imitation' of Eddie. And then Tommy kisses Buck. The Tommy that is so similar to Eddie, which begs the question: 'Exactly how does Buck feel about Eddie? Does he even know about these feelings?'
Now let's move on to 7x05: You don't know me
This episode seems to be more Eddie centered and I think now we'll see the story through Eddie's POV. He crashes Buck and Tommy's first date and it's clear from the stills he isn't sure what is going on, but he realises that 'something' is going on. I'm not sure what his initial reaction is going to be, because I think that he might be upset that Buck kept this big thing from him. But I also know Eddie would never do anything to upset Buck. I'm absolutely certain that he will support Buck dating Tommy.
However, let's take a look at the lyrics of 'You don't know me'. This is basically a love song about someone pining over the love of their life they let walk away. It's from a friend's POV falling for another friend, but being too afraid to tell them so they now have to see them walk away with another lucky guy. I mean, look at this:
This is pretty telling is you ask me and it's so Eddie-coded. He'll find out about Buck and Tommy, suck up his own complicated feelings about this, support Buck all the way and then double down on his relationship with Marisol. All because that is the only way he'll know how to cope. Eddie always makes bad decisions and disregards his own feelings when it comes to the people he loves being happy.
He tried to be with Ana, even through panic attacks, because he knew Christopher really liked her. He wanted that for Chris, but not for himself. Now he's going to do the same thing: He'll try to make it work with Marisol, so he won't have to face up to his feelings for Buck. He will put Buck's happiness before his own, because that is just how Eddie Diaz works and I love him for that. But oh, if I'm right about this, we're entering the 'heavily pining Eddie Diaz era' and I'm all for it.
How is it all going to turn out in the end? Well, I'm pretty sure that Buddie will happen sometime in the future, but it's going to take some time to get there.
