MY SISTER'S GROOM || SEONGSANG

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

Kang Yeosang

I woke up of a sound of the door knocking. I groaned and rubbed my eyes at the discomfort. I rose from my bed, still exhausted from yesterday. The knocks on the door got a little more aggressive. I checked the time on my phone: 10:48 a.m.

I walked to the door and opened it, revealing Seonghwa in casual clothes. "Hey, you feeling better?"

I just nodded, feeling embarrassed to talk because I haven't brush my teeth yet. I opened the door wider for him to come in. 

"Have you taken your pills?" He asked as he looked around the room.

I grabbed a towel while replying, "Not yet, I just woke up."

"Heavy sleeper, aren't you?" He chuckled and I just playfully rolled my eyes. "Anyway, I bought you clothes." He added while handing me the bag that I presumed the clothes are in there.

"Thanks, Hwa." I opened the zipper and took out the clothes. I cocked an eyebrow, slightly examining the unfamiliar clothes that were given to me. "These aren't mine."

Seonghwa placed his hands inside his pockets, "Those are my clothes. I didn't want to go into your room since I still respect your privacy."

I beamed a smile and I averted my gaze away him, "That's...thoughtful of you. Thank you." I told him before closing the bathroom door.

I looked at the mirror that was stick to the wall. My cheeks were a tint of pink yet my eyes look glossy. I stretched for a little bit before removing my shirt. My eyes went down to the black doodle that was still lingered on my hip. I sighed once again. I haven't told Seonghwa about this for many events recently happened. 

I decided that I will tell Seonghwa later.

After having a cold shower and changing into clean clothes, which were a little bit oversized since Seonghwa is way taller and buffer than me, I ruffled my hair with my towel to dry it up then proceeded to leave the bathroom.

Seonghwa stood up and looked at me from head to toe, seeing the obvious gulp going down to his throat.

"You ready to go?" His voice cracked as his eyes went back up to mine.

"Yeah," I replied before asking, "By the way, there's this tatt--"

"Oh yeah, sorry to cut you off but my friends are still at the house, so we better get going. They're waiting for me." Seonghwa said and went out of the room first.

I pursed my lips together, instantly shutting my mouth. 

"Sure." I said to myself with a sigh and follow him down the stairs, not forgetting to take the clothes and the pills with me.

"Are we going to our house?" I asked while buckling my seatbelt as he started the engine of the car.

Seonghwa shook his head, "No, we're going to your parents' place."

"Why?"

"Like I told you, my friends are still at the house. You know we can't let them see you."

I muttered under my breath after realizing, "Right."

A moment of silence came over us after Seonghwa drove off the lot.
