Joong Ki
The evening air was cool and crisp, a sign that autumn is about to end. Our day passed by with our usual routine. Min Hyuk and I tended the farm while Chae Won wove slippers with the village women. I also had to help her with the house chores as she tires easily these days, not that I am complaining though. I savour every moment that we are together, husband and wife, oh such beautiful words to say.
I entered our small room after arranging the farming tools that will be used the following day. To my delight Chae Won was still awake, seating on her side of the bed and she was singing a lullaby to our unborn child. A smile formed on my lips, I would definitely never get tired of this view. She must have sensed my presence because she stopped singing, turned her gaze to me and offered a sweet smile.
“Is our little one moving around too much tonight?” I settled myself beside her and placed one hand on her swollen stomach. Chae Won nodded and rested her head on my shoulder.
“I guess the baby likes lullabies because the movements have lessened now.” She said while caressing her bulge. We remained silent for a while, basking in the presence of each other and our child. In a few months’ time our world will completely change because of our little one. I wonder what her gender is, what he or she will look like. I hope our child will take most from Chae Won. Will he or she inherit Chae Won’s lovely eyes and lips, or perhaps her fierce and loving nature? Regardless if he or she will inherit Chae Won’s best characteristics or not, we will still give all our love and attention to our child.
“Joong Ki-ssi” she broke my reverie
“Hm?”
“We barely have three months before our child arrives but we have not chosen a name for him or her yet.”
“You are right, but I have some names in mind. For a girl it would be Sook Joo. For a boy it would be Myung Dae. What do you think?’
“I like it. Sook Joo, pure jewel, and Myung Dae, great righteousness. I cannot wait until we can call our child by his or her name”
“Likewise, my love.” I leaned to place a kiss on her bulge where our baby is, then on her forehead, and finally on her lips. Relishing the sweet taste of her lips, I deepened the kiss which she gladly reciprocated. Our intertwined hands rested on her bulge. Breaking the kiss I traced her jaw down to her neck eliciting a light moan from her. It has been awhile since we were physically intimate, and truth be told, I miss Chae Won. I miss my wife’s kisses, her caresses, and I miss the feeling of her.
I carefully pushed aside her sok ot, letting it fall from her shoulders and exposing her fair skin. She allowed me to explore her with my lips just like how we used to in the palace. . I whispered “I love you” with every kiss I made. This was answered with her kisses, pleasured sighs and moans. My hands caressed her in ways that are familiar to us, only that this time I had to be very careful not to cause her pain.
Under the moonlight I could clearly see her loving gaze. I still cannot believe that she loves me, and that she is mine. I would never tire of expressing how much I love her.
With our discarded clothing on the floor, I managed to keep her warm by enveloping her in my arms. Watching her peacefully sleep with a satisfied smile makes my heart swell with love.
“I love you very much Chae Won-ah” I whispered and kissed her cheek before I surrendered myself to sleep.
