Your eyebrows knitted together and you start to laugh, finding the situation funny. What is that supposed to mean? But then you find yourself unable to sleep thinking about his words.
"Can I have whatever you're cooking?" He asks as he opens the fridge while his eyes keep on glancing at your fried rice. Why does he act as if last night did not happen at all? Nevertheless, you serve him everything that you prepared.
"Let me send you today." He said as he took the first bite of your fried rice and you saw how he tried to hide his smile upon tasting your food.
"I have a car."
"I know but it's good to share a ride sometimes." He let out a boxy smile.
"Fine." You answer him, shrugging your shoulders.
"I am sorry about last night." His apology caught you off guard. You turned your head to him.
"You're sorry about what? Reminding me about my father's dark history? That he wanted my mother to abort me when he knew that I'm a girl and not a boy as he wishes?" or because what happened to me ten years ago? You said that to yourself but you continue. "It does not matter Taehyung. Whether you wanted to kill the baby if I were fated to be pregnant in the near time. You're killing the baby will indirectly hurt me and I know my father will never let that happen." You turn around and were about to walk away when he responded to you.
"Your father marry you off to me because he needs assurance for his business. I think the advantages are more on my side Y/n."
You're not going to lie, his words hurt you. Yes, you do realize that your marriage to him is solely for your father's business but what you did not expect is when he as your husband also treated you like a thing, not a partner, not a wife, and not as another human being but a thing. How pathetic your life is. You were surrounded by people who cannot live without their money. You let out a sigh before proceeding to walk to your room, getting ready for a long day at your café.
***
You're walking to your car when your husband's car stops beside you and he straightly got off his car. "I told you I'm sending you today."
"And I have a car."
"Y/n don't be stubborn. I need to tell you something on our way so get in."
Rolling your eyes, you got into his car nevertheless, curious as to what he wanted to tell you. But he never says anything. His concentration is on the road and there's no small talk or whatsoever.
"I thought you wanted to tell me something." You voiced out your thought because you're about to reach your café.
He glances at you with a small smile on his lips but didn't answer your question.
Your eyebrows furrow to his response but didn't want to press him more as he's about to reach your café.
Unfastening your seatbelt, you say your thank you to him and do not even bother to listen to whatever he's saying as you got off instantly and close the door harshly. If he wanted to be childish by leaving you hanging not telling you anything, well you can do the same to him as well. But the buzz on your phone when you're inside your café makes you want to curse him.
Make me lunch then I'll tell you. (with a wink emoticon at the end of the sentence)
- Taehyung
Yeah, you're not going to cook for him. That been decided after what he made you gone through this morning.
You could not hide your surprise when the clock hit exactly noon, there your husband casually walked into your café with a big smile holding a small bouquet of lilies.
"What are you doing here Taehyung?"
"I told you I am coming." He extends his hand, giving you the lilies, yellow lilies and it reminds you of something.
You took it nevertheless, as your employees are watching.
"No, you did not."
"Y/n, it's not really hard to cook for me. I am not a picky eater."
Shaking your head, you went upstairs to your office followed closely by your husband. Placing the flower on the small table beside the entrance you went to your pantry. Yes, you have a huge kitchen downstairs but you still have a pantry in your office because before you got married, you used to spend your night here and because of your lazy ass to go downstairs, you built a small pantry for yourself.
Taehyung without being invited sat on the couch while observing you opening the cup noodles. "I know I said I'm not a picky eater but ramyeon? It's lunchtime Y/n."
You lifted your head and shrugged your shoulder. No one invited him, so taste your own medicine.
"Y/n, I seriously need rice and kimchi too or any side dish. That is not enough." His eyes follow your hand as you're opening two cups of noodles.
Letting out a loud and long sigh, tired of his complaint you told him that there will be side dishes for him such as rice, kimchi, and egg soup and he let out an 'o' listening to you. Placing the noodles and everything on the table where he sat you told him to stop staring or else you will throw out everything.
Letting out a boxy smile while batting his eyes he then said "You know the facade you're trying to show me, it does not suit you at all Y/n. I know you're not this type of girl, admit it."
Rolling your eyes, you lean back to the back of your soft couch, trying to finally catch a breath.
"You're not going to eat?"
"I am full."
"But..."
"Aish Kim Taehyung!"
"Fine Fine!" he says with a pout. "I thought today will be a less lonely lunch, turns out it was the same as other days." He mumbles to himself.
Is that true? That all this time he always has lunch alone? I thought he'll be out with his friend or go to her, guess you're wrong all this time. But then again, you know nothing about your husband. Being married to him for a week didn't change anything. You know nothing about him still, ahh you know one thing. He has a girlfriend, a sick lover who doesn't have a chance to be better. That two things though. You met with her doctor that day because you are so curious about everything and you don't even know if Taehyung knows about it. Slowly you turned your gaze to Taehyung. You suddenly feel pity towards him.
"Are you done reading me?" His voice knocks you out of your reverie. You don't even realize he has finished eating. He then leans against the back of the couch, with his gaze on you. "What are you thinking about?" He asks you.
"Many things."
"Such as?" He asks back.
Not going to lie, this would be the first time you are sitting closely while gazing at each other softly and that weird feeling came again as if telling you that you're about to fall into a dangerous trap, falling in love with someone whose heart is with another woman. "What I should cook for dinner?" You answered him, unsure of your answer.
"You're bad at lying." He then moves closer to you and lays his head on your shoulder. "I know you're thinking about other things. You know you can always tell me everything. Talk to me as you talk to your friend. Rant to me or you can even complain about your customer or even about me to myself." His hand slowly took your hand in his and that action made your heartthrobs even more. Why is he like this? Don't he realize that he's making you... no, you cannot the word or it'll happen. "Thank you for the lunch today. I know I'm such..."
"You're welcome." You interrupt him. "Come here any time to eat. I'll cook for you."
"Really?" His sullen voice suddenly sounds cheerful.
"Give me notice at least. So that I can cook a proper meal. Not just this." You pointed to the cup noodles.
"I will." He leaned more towards your side happily.
***
After the talk you shared during lunchtime, you realized that he's a good person well minus the point that he agreed about the plan with his father. Other than that, he's cool and lonely, you only realized this today. He even insisted on fetching you up later since he's the one that sent you today. He reminds you again about being a friend with him, the only thing that he can offer at the moment and you agreed to it. Well, it's not like you have other choices. He's true to his words when he said about being a friend. He started to have breakfast and lunch at your place.
It's all good until that one night when you both have an unexpected visitor from your father-in-law together with his stepmother to have dinner with you and your husband. Sitting on the same dining table with him made you uncomfortable. Not forgetting the side-eyes that his stepmother is constantly giving you but what caught your attention since she came today is the words that she told you. "You look exactly like your mother." You don't even how your mother looks like and she knows? That means they know each other, right?
Your father-in-law told Taehyung that he need to talk to him privately so Taehyung took him to the outside balcony upstairs, while his stepmother is now sitting nonchalantly in the living room, checking her phone. This family is so weird. Stepping upstairs, unintentionally you heard their discussion. Not unintentionally though because you just want to know what are they discussing.
"You need to follow our initial plan. Don't involve your feeling in this!" The first thing you heard when you reach the door to the balcony.
"I am not. You do know I am still with her all this time."
His father let out a snicker. "A girl who is waiting for her time."
"Don't talk to her like that!" You were startled as you heard him shout. But then again, though he's been good to you, you keep on forgetting that he's still with her.
"I am not wrong about it Taehyung. Face it!"
"Don't talk about her like that." He says in a warning tone.
"I am going to talk about it until you're able to accept the fact that she'll be gone soon." You heard no answer instead you saw the door open and he was startled as he see you standing in front of him. His eyes meet you briefly but he walks past you and your father-in-law call for his name but stop when he saw you standing in front of him. You act as if you did not hear anything by pretending to ask about Taehyung.
He forces out a smile. "He's... he will be back. Don't worry about it." He patted your shoulder. "We should be going. Thank you for the dinner. It's all delicious." You nodded your head and went downstairs to his wife while you followed him closely and walk them to the door. "You really look like her Y/n. The only difference is that she can't cook while you're good at it. It must be because you were sent to reha..."
"Jagi..." Your father-in-law interrupt her and shook his head, asking her not to continue.
Your eyebrows furrow to her words. Did their family know about it? The past that your father tried so hard to bury. The past that your family tried to cover so much. The past that you regret so much that made you the person today. But that was ten years ago. If that is what happened, then Taehyung... he knew it too. To find out about this, you waited for him but you fall asleep on the couch so you move to your room.
The next day, you see the space beside you empty but there's a trace of him. That means he was back last night so you walk downstairs hoping to meet him but instead you see no one here. You try to call his phone but it went straight to voice mail. Weird. That is so weird. Not even once did he leave without informing you. You then placed your phone on the kitchen island and went to check the fridge to cook something for him so that you can send it for him later on your way to your cafe. But the ringing of your phone stopped you from checking the fridge.
"Hello?" You answered the call without checking the caller.
"Y/n? This is Dr. Yoo Han." You checked again the caller's name, just to confirm that this is really him.
"Yes, this is Y/n speaking."
"I... I need to tell you something." And by him calling you, that answers your question about your husband's disappearance because Dr. Yoo Han is the one in charge of Jung Hana.
_: To everyone, even if you don't see me posting anything, please know that I am here. I did check my account if I have time. And I know this fic is 'on hiatus' for a very long time and I am so sorry for that. It's just that I can't post anything as writer's block hit me for a long time and Ive lost my confidence in writing so whatever I wrote, I delete it. I am also super busy lately. So whenever I have time, I tried to write but that just it, I always end up deleting it. I'm not suppose to post this because my planned was to post 'this one fic' as my comeback post here but then again, I could not finish it as Ive been super busy. So I have no time to write it though Ive already plan it thoroughly what suppose to be the intro and the ending so Ive decided that this will be my comeback post.
Hello everyone, I hope everyone here is in a good health. I am sorry for being missing for a very long time. I cannot make a promise that I will post everyday that I am back now but I will try my best to finish everything that I've started. Please don't ask when will I post the continuation of my other fic as that will only put pressure on me. And I am not good with managing a pressure. It will always end up me being nervous and not confident and that make me to delete what ever I already write. I hope everyone understand with that.
Best regard, Naa.
