Sociopath

14: Amends

"Nabong..."

"Nabong..."

I slowly open my eyes and see Sang-woo staring at me. He smiles widely and pecks me on the forehead.

"Good morning sleepy. It's time to get up..." he whispers.

"Five more minutes..." I groan.

"Ya...I'm not the person who arranged to meet my father at 10 am, am I?"

My eyes snap open and I shoot up, smacking my head against Sang-woo's by accident.

"Ow!" He yelps as he falls back. We rub our heads and chuckle.

"We gotta stop doing this," he chuckles before sliding out of bed. "Go take a shower babe, I'll get breakfast started."

I nod and stretch my arms, the small throb in my head slowly fading. As my boyfriend walks out of the room, I get up and head into the shower to clean myself up.

After a nice refreshing shower, I throw on a set of clothes from my luggage before zipping it up and rolling it out of my room in my small cabin. Sang-woo is in the kitchen, probably cooking up some leftovers for today's breakfast. I silently sneak up behind him and hug him from the back, making him jump.

"Ya! You scared me!"

"I'm sorry honey..." I giggle as I rest my head on his back.

"It's alright baby...you ready for breakfast?"

"I'm always ready for breakfast," I smile. I let go of him and help to pull out the plates and cutlery as he brings the pan out to the dining table. We ate and chatted happily before the conversation eventually wound up going to what was going to happen today.

"So what are you planning to say to him?" He asks as he stabs a tomato with a fork.

"I don't know...I'll go with the flow I guess..."

"Nayeon...we both know you're not good at that."

"Okay, first of all, ouch. Secondly, I can probably wing it, baby. I should be able to come up with some stuff on the spot."

He opens his mouth to say something but closes it.

"Yea...I...I shouldn't be trying to tell you what to say...my bad babe..." he says, his eyes filled with guilt. I smile and take his hand.

"Don't feel fad babe...it's always been in your nature to help others," I say. He smiles and nods.

"Okay...I won't," he replies. I squeeze his hand.

"God, you're so adorable!" I giggle. He blushes.

"L-let's just eat..."

We finish up our meal and clean up, making sure that we leave everything in a pristine state for the next time we use this cabin. We locked up and turned off the power generator, closing up the cabin till the next time we come back before we get into my car.

"I'll drop you back at your place, then I'll go," I explain as we buckle up.

"Awww...not taking me with you?"

"I swear to god Sang-woo...one more fucking time."

"Okay okay I'm sorry!" He chuckles. I huff playfully and roll my eyes. As we drive out of the woods, I take hold of one of his hands and squeeze it. The drive back to his place is filled with comfortable silence as we just enjoy each other's company.

As we approach his residence, he rolls down his window to speak to the guard.

"Resident or guest."
