"Kyuhyun-shi, are you free for lunch?". Ryeowook asked.
"Ahh..Sorry, I got new papers to read".
"Awww.. then how about later? I mean tonight for dinner?"
"oh..okay" Kyuhyun answered.
"okay, good"
"How about Sungmin? Is he coming?" Kyuhyun asked her.
I quickly gazed at them after hearing my name.
"No!, I'm fine!.." I shouted.
Kyuhyun looked at Ryeowook again then said
"Hmmm..okay, let's go tonight. (looked at me again) Sungmin-ah! You sure you don't want to come?"
"No, the cook and I will cook something"
The cook immediately looked at me. I winked at her meaning 'just ride on'.
Then I heard Kyuhyun spoke again. "Oh..okay then"
When the night came, I was left alone in the house. I changed into pajamas. Since I got nothing to do, I went to Kyuhyun's office. I looked at all the papers scattered on the desk and decided to arrange it. Then I looked at the bookshelf, the books were all messy.
"sure, he really has a lot of work here".
I arranged the books patiently from thinnest to thickest.
Then I decided to clean the whole room aside from the desk and the bookshelf. I swept all the mess. I got tired, besides, I didn't sleep well last night because of what happened. So I decided to just take a nap to Kyuhyun's sofa and just wake up until he arrive.
I don't know what happened next. I just woke up with a blanket. I saw Kyuhyun working at the desk. He saw me moving.
"morning!..why did you sleep here?"
"hm?"
Oh...what the? I fell asleep in his office?. I quickly sat up.
"I'm sorry"
"No. It's okay. I saw my office well arranged when I arrived. I should thank you."
I didn't say a word. I just stood up and headed to the door. When I touched the knob, he said softly while giggling:
"Oh.... and I watched you sleep last night. You were snoring...
so cute"
I bit my lips, narrowed my eyes and walked fast, so embarrassed.
I went to the bathroom to wash my face.
I looked on the mirror, talked to myself.
"But you didn't m-mean to sleep in his room...
Is that true? You're snoring?......
Aughhhh!!!"
I went downstairs. I saw Ryeowook again.
"hey... Sungmin-shi! Looks like you're in a bad mood today. What happened?"
I shook my head. "No, I just had a bad sleep"
"Oh," she said. "Hmmm...since Kyu is upstairs, and while I'm waiting for him...how about we have a little chat?"
"hm..okay"
We sat at the living room and she began speaking.
"So, how are you now? remember anything lately?"
"yeah. Almost. I can remember what happened before the accident"
"Oh. Kyuhyun already told me that"
"really?"
"Yeah, he told me a lot of stuffs about you"
"heh?" I got surprised.
"He told me you're the first to make him laugh after what happened two years ago. I told him that's great. He had changed lately. Do you know what happened last two years?"
"yeah. He already told me"
"Okay. *sigh* You know, he doesn't even laughs at my jokes. But you..."
I smiled. I felt a joy inside.
"He also told me that you're already like a hyung to him. Just for a short time, he already--..
I've never seen him like that before"
"really?"
"yeah.. and he doesn't have time for me lately. He's always busy."
Her phone rang then she quickly answered it.
"I gotta go now Sungmin-shi. I'll just go upstairs to say goodbye to Kyu. I hope we can hang-out next time"
"Yeah. thanks for the conversation we had." I smiled then went to kitchen for my breakfast.
When she came down, she said goodbye and left.
After I finished eating, I went upstairs to my bedroom. But Kyuhyun's door was open so he saw me passed the hallway.
"Yah! Sungmin!" He shouted.
I came back. "Hm.?"
"Let's go out"
I suddenly remembered what Ryeowook just told me, that Kyuhyun has no time for her cause he's always busy.
Why would he ask me to hang out with him?.
"But you're busy.."
"Don't worry, I can finish it later"
"But---"
he pulled my hand, headed to the car.
"But I haven't changed my clothes yet"
I was wearing a pajama and a shirt.
"We can buy new clothes. I'm just so bored and stressed"
"Why don't you just ask Ryeowook?"
"She already left. Common!"
He pushed me inside the car and started the engine.
There was a total silence when driving to I don't know where. I was trying to ask him where we will go but I can't. I was really embarrassed about what happened that morning so I can't speak to him directly. So I was speaking while looking at the window, covering my nose.
"Where r ee g---ing?"
"huh?"
"where r ee g--ing?"
"I can't-- (he looked at me) can you just put your hand down so I can understand you?"
I put my hand down.
"Where are we going?" I said aloud.
"Ah. We're going to the mall. Why do you cover your nose anyway?"
"I just...don't like men's scents"
He looked at me again and chuckled. He quickly get his car freshener and threw it out the window. He turned the aircon off and pushed a button then the windows automatically opened.
"I guess you'll be okay now"
My jaw dropped. "T....thanks" I said softly still can't believe of what he just did.
The car stopped in front of the mall. He pulled my hand again. I was so embarrassed with what he was doing. I just looked down all the way seeing people look at me and at my pajama. While Kyuhyun, he was just smiling, walking like proudly while holding my hands.
I pulled my hand off and walked beside him.
"You....Cho Kyuhyun, what the hell are you doing?" I whispered.
"What? I'm gonna buy you new clothes! What do you want? shorts? pants? shirts?"
"I didn't ask for any of that"
"Ofcourse you didn't and you will not. So I'll be the one to give it to you....look..(pointed to my pajama)
you still don't want to change?"
I looked down.
"Okay then... we'll just leave" he said, walking away.
"Wait!......okay." I finally gave up.
He smiled and held my hand again, pulling me. I was trying to get my hand off but he was holding it too tight.
We went to a clothes store. I saw him point something.
"Oh, look at that. The print on the shirt...
it's a bunny sleeping!...I wish the print was a bunny with a big mouth that looks snoring..but anyway, I'll take it"
He brought it to the counter and paid. He also bought me pants, a jacket and a pair of sneakers so I changed immediately.
We ended up in a coffee shop. We were having a cold mocha shake and 2 slices of cakes. Mine was strawberry flavored.
Suddenly, something vibrated inside the jacket I was wearing. When I pulled it out, It was a brand new touch-screen phone and a message was waiting. I opened the message and almost choke my shake out when I read the message.
"Surprise! bought you a new phone!"
I don't know how he put the phone in the jacket's pocket. But maybe it was when he paid the clothes at the counter.
I looked at him and he chuckled.
I replied 'what's wrong with you?'
Then he answered 'the first and the last number in the phonebook is mine'.
And we were like stupid texting each other when we're only facing each other in a small round table. Finally, I was the one to speak first.
"I'll just go to the CR, okay?"
"huh?...okay" he responded.
When I got in there, it was only a small CR and one person can only go inside.
I said what all I want to say to set what I feel out.
