I woke up to a gentle shake of my shoulder and Jeon's somewhat amused face that looked down at me from the other side of the sofa where he was kneeling down beside me.
He'd called to invite me to lunch earlier that morning and I excitedly accepted without considering that I had been working for the most part of the night and I was simply beyond exhausted and so here I was, sleeping the day off instead of helping him prepare the said lunch like I said I would.
"Hey how long have I been asleep?" I whispered softly to him and his face relaxed into a wide smile that lit up his entire face like fireworks.
"Two hours maybe" he answered through his smile then went on to plant a few soft kisses on my forehead. I hummed softly to the beautiful feeling of his caressi
Kristal and I made love to each other like so many other nights ever since I came back from Jeju island and when I opened my eyes the next morning, I found her sitting cross legged right by my side.She had one of my shirts over her slender figure and her hair was held up in a bun with a few stubborn strands of it hanging loose and falling all over her pretty face. She seemed immensed in whatever work she had on the laptop that was comfortably sat on top of her gorgeous naked legs.I didn't make a sound to notify her of my wakeful state, I just lay there perfectly still and watched her as she worked. The bedroom was quiet except for the sound of her fingers as they typed away on the keyboard of her laptop and there were also a few occasional gentle sighs that escaped her lips whenever she'd make a mistake on her work.
All dressed up in a decent evening dress with some 3inch heels on my feet, I waited for Jeon to come pick me up for the congratulatory dinner which followed the official opening of his family's department store.I was quite excited to be a part of this event mostly because this was to be the first time for us to go out publicly as a couple, but there was also the fact that Minho was going to be there as well. I had actually come to miss his crazy personality a lot and I knew he would definitely keep me company in the moments when Jeon would have to leave my side and cater to his other guests.After waiting for what seemed like hours, Jeon finally showed up. I found it very weird that he was late because he is the kind of guy who is always so organized and makes sure to keep time no matter what happens. He looked wonderful though, in his black tux and his well brushed shiny hair that made him look as elegant a prince."Good evening darling" he greeted me i
I stood stunned by the mere sight of this woman whose elegance and beauty, made me feel as insignificant and insecure as the other woman of any love story ever told.Her smile alone was enough to lighten the entire hall without the help of the glimmering chandeliers and her slender body emitted such grace one would actually think she was born into nobility.She was dressed in a simple white dress that was neither too short nor inappropriate in any way, but it still made her look so much better than any other elegantly dressed woman in the entire place. I couldn't help but feel both envious and awestruck all at the same time."Mia!" Minho's voice boomed into my ear like thunder as he enveloped me in his arms and helped shut down my envious thoughts "I have missed you so much, how have you been?"He was all smiles as usual and I found his happiness soothing enough to momentary make me forget my insecurities."Am alright Minho. I missed you too"
"Oh Minho, what have I done now?" Kristal asked me in a near whisper. Her voice was all but broken from all the emotions of despair and regret and her already filled up eyes, just about threatened to spill tears regardless of the many people surrounding us. I quickly moved a few inches closer to her and had her in my arms before any of that could actually happen."You haven't done anything wrong babe" I hushed her down gently as her body trembled slightly against mine "none of this is your fault""Well we shouldn't have come here together then. Look at how I have managed to hurt Mia just when I have had the pleasure of meeting her" she complained some more through her sniffles. She pulled away from my hold and looked up at me to met my eyes "I really didn't mean to ruin anything minho""Of course you didn't babe, I mean we both expected Jeon to still have some lingering feelings for you now, didn't we?" I comforted my girlfriend with a reassuri
I came back home from the hotel only to find the place empty. Bona was nowhere in sight and the whole place was swamped with darkness and a certain loneliness that had my already broken heart crushing even more from the silence and darkness I found within it's walls.I didn't bother to switch on the lights. Instead, I just walked to the couch where I sat in the dark for a really long time. Staring out into nothingness as my heart ached from so many different types of emotions.There was anger, loneliness, disappointment and just plain hurt from my breakup with Jeon. But regardless of all these feelings I had raging through every vein in my body, there was still no tears in my eyes.I guess I didn't have any left since I cried too much on my way home.After what seemed like hours of staring out into nothingness, I heard a knock on the front door and someone calling out my name from the other side of it. It took me a while to make out that the v
I arrived back at the house a few minutes after midnight, only to find Kristal already fast asleep on the sofa and Jeon sitting right next to her with a glass of whiskey in one hand and his chin resting in the other.As soon as he caught sight of me standing by the door, he quickly got up from his seat and walked all the way across the room to meet me before I could step foot inside the living room. He closed the door that separates the living room from the kitchen and soon had me seated on one of the chairs by the kitchen dining table."Well that took you long enough." He started as soon as he also had a seat on a chair opposite mine. "Kristal refused to go to bed and insisted on waiting for you. Why the hell did you take so long?""Am sorry I took long but I just couldn't leave Mia all alone when she was laterally drowning in her own tears.""Oh God, is she okay?" Jeon asked, his voice sounding all guilty as if he just found out that a person he p
"Mia, would you please try to look a little less petrified already, we are only going to a club not a freaking war zone for God's sake!." Bona huffed in frustration as she stood next to me in front of my bedroom mirror."Well am sorry Bona, but I don't know if I can go out in public dressed like this" I complained. "Seriously I look like a tramp" I turned around to check myself out from different angles as I filled out in Bona's black mini dress that should have been more qualified to be worn as a top rather than a dress. But Bona still insisted that I wear it for our night out because according to her, it was more appropriate for that occasion rather than my usual jeans and sweaters.The thing is, I didn't really want to go out to dance the night away in some club. I actually preferred to just sit around at home, catching up on a few of my favorite kdramas whilst draining considerable amounts of coffee or maybe sipping on a beer or something like that. But it's not li
We reached the club house in a matter of minutes and found it so full that it was almost impossible to take two steps forward without bumping into some drunk individual or trip over some stuck out foot in a multitude of dancing feet. The music was loud as expected, and the place was on full blast with almost everyone gracing the dance floor with their own style of moves.The music and the dance had both Kristal and Bona way to excited for them to mind their little silent battle any longer and they actually looked eager enough to go and join in on the fun. Mia on the other hand, looked more like she was about to dive into a sea of snakes rather than jive to a few party songs.She tried to cover up her unease with her Beautiful yet fake smile of course but unfortunately for her, it seemed I had come to know her well enough to see right through her.I instinctively took her hand and held it gently into mine as we walked and she easily fell a few steps backwar
I took the liberty of driving Mia out of the hassle of the city's unrelenting crowds and took her all the way into the outskirts to show her my favorite eating place in the whole of Busan.It is a small old fashioned restaurant built on the island of yeongdugu and it's really cozy and uncrowded and have the best view of the sea with a few flowers and trees dotted about to provide the best shade for their outdoor sitting area.My friend introduced me to the place once after we had drunk ourselves half to death at his uncle's funeral and needed a place to get some hangover soup. It didn't disappoint and I had been coming over ever since whenever I needed some alone time to think things through or mostly to just run away from my dad whenever he was pissed enough at me to want my head on a pike.We took our seats on the outside table of course because nothing could ever take Mia away from the pleasure of breathtaking views, be it snowstorms or catastroph
If anyone were to ask me why I fell in love with Mia, then I would tell them that it is all in the way she fails to blend in with the unneccesary fuss for perfection that is always related to my world. Instead, she's a scattered mess of a girl who prefers to dress up in ripped jeans, oversized sweaters and pumps than all the designer dresses, priceless jewelry and high heels there is in the world. She would choose spending her entire day sitting out on the beach or drinking coffee in a cozy cafe with her head buried in a book than go out to some fancy event flaunted with celebrities. In fact, I think that sort of thing would only appall her than it would excited her really which is why I suspected that, she would definitely find my oversized house with it's numerous servants, very overwhelming indeed. And so I decided that before she steps out and finds out that we have quite a few uniformed staff running around the house, I should prepare her a surprise as a
After preparing my bath, Jeon left me to my own devices and went downstairs to see to our breakfast. I waited till he was completely out of the room before getting myself out of the covers and went into the bathroom.Once there, I brushed my teeth, took that bath as quickly as possible and then changed into my favorite blue shorts and one of Jeon's t-shirts. It was a black round neck and definitely a designer brand by the looks of it, but it was also a few inches too big and it ended up swallowing me whole together with the jean shorts I wore underneath it.I stepped out of the room as soon as I was done and started off to find the kitchen and hopefully find Jeon in there too.The second floor hallway, with it's super expensive decorations was vacant and terribly quiet, signaling that there was no one else around on the entire second floor except for me. I walked down the carpeted floor in slow steady steps, taking my time to marvel at the beauty of
The next morning, I woke up to some lovely sound of classical music coming up from somewhere downstairs and a smiling Jeon as he lay next to me with one of his hands running through my hair and the other serving as a pillow for his head.He smiled at me after I opened my eyes, moving his hand from my hair to caress my cheek with such gentleness you'd actually think I was made out of the most fragile glass and might shutter into tiny fragments at the slightest pressure. "Good morning darling, how was your night?""It was fine." I answered shyly, feeling a little self conscious since I had just woken up and could have easily had drool smeared all over my face. I instinctively pulled up the covers to hide my face from him even though he'd had all the time in the world to look at me throughout the night.He laughed at my silliness, reaching his hand over to try and remove the sheet from my face. "What are you doing? Don't you want me to look at you?" He teased
I came back home from Kristal's place just a little after midnight and entered the house discreetly through the back entrance in an effort to avoid running into the two love birds just in case they were still up and doing God knows what in the middle of our living room. But just halfway down the hallway that led to the stairs, I caught a glimpse of my brother through a slightly opened door to Dad's study, sitting comfotably behind a pile of paper with his gaze totally fixed on a flickering laptop laid out in front of him on the desk.He seemed so taken with whatever was plastered across that computer of his that he barely heard the sound of my footsteps as I pushed the door wider and stepped inside the oval shaped office. His eyes sparkled through his rimmed, reading spectacles as he scrolled down on it, furrowing his brow more and more with each blink as if he was reading about the end of the world.I fought the urge to roll my eyes at him even though I didn't quite s
Jeon's father stood before us with a blank face that almost passed as bored. Infact, he looked kind of distracted like his mind was somewhere else entirely even though his whole body was there, standing right in front of us.He also didn't look anything like the super stern father Minho always painted him out to be. But then again, I wouldn't know him as well as his son did and so maybe, just maybe there was a chance he could suddenly change his mood and then have me thrown out of the house without so much as a second thought.It was very possible considering I was a total stranger to him and there was a chance he was a type of man who didn't like having strange, foreign women in his living room, dressed in practically nothing and holding on to his precious, hardworking son like their lives depended on it.I hoped to God with everything I had that I was just overreacting because I was already feeling kind of out of place as it was and adding a raging parent to t
Later that evening, Jeon took me out to have dinner at some expensive looking restaurant somewhere in the city.It was a beautiful place with twinkling lights hang up everywhere and chairs set out on the green lawn that overlooked the gorgeous han river. It was really quite breathtaking and I would have loved it very much if it weren't for all the curious glances we kept getting from everyone around and people actually openly fussing about who we were to each other from the moment we stepped out of the car.It turned out that my boyfriend was much more popular in his city than I first thought, he was something more of a major celebrity actually. Infact, he might as well have been a BTS member with all the crazed publicity we were getting from just a simple act of going out to eat at a restaurant.The whole experience was as tiresome as it was irritating."Okay love am going to have to ask you this, were you ever in a band at some point in your
My brother came back home with a trophy by his side. A beautiful girl who'd stolen his heart whilst he was trying so hard to mend it back to normal after I had done something terrible to it and left it broken beyond measure.She was stunning, a goddess clad in a sleeveless white dress that brought out the perfection of her soft dark brown skin with her thick curly curls left to fall down all the way to her shoulders like a cascading waterfall. Her smile was divine, a clear indication of her love for my brother who also kept his eyes on her like she was the only thing that mattered to him in the entire universe.She walked inside the house with her hand on his arm but let go of him almost immediately after she made it halfway into the living room. I watched her from up the stairs as her eyes grew wide and her mouth opened up slightly in quiet amazement.Her awe was understandable since our house has always been admired by many people for it's unique a
After we got off the plane, we went outside to get us a cab home only to be met by my driver, standing by the black limo and dressed in all black like he was some kind of bodyguard from some gangster movie. I didn't need to guess much about what had gotten into him to know that it was probably my brother who had put him up to it.Minho is a prankster, Marveling at making fun of me at every turn or messing up my perfectly laid out plans whenever he got a chance for his own amusement. And so this was him again, at another attempt of making me feel awkward because he knew I didn't want to scare Mia off with all that unnecessary luxury.I took a long sigh and brought Mia closer to my side as we walked over to the car. The driver got our bags from me, put them away in the back and then opened the door for us with all the formalities of a contract driver."Welcome home Mr Kim and you too miss." He spoke politely with his hands pressed firmly on his sides as if he was
