Chapter 42 Red Highlight
I squints my eyes open the moment I felt myself slowly waking up. My head hurts and I can feel the throbbing feeling of it whenever I move even just for a bit. I pulled the covers closer to mine and reached to my side. However, I widened my eyes when I felt no one beside me. I immediately sat up and roamed the area.
Turns out I'm inside a bedroom and on someone's bed. My cheeks heated the moment I remember the scene from what we did last night. I just gave myself to him. I gulped and looked around. I saw the red dress folded neatly on top of a desk near the bed and beside it was another folded clothing.
I reached for it and realized that it was a silk sleepwear dress. I immediately slip myself to it and walked towards the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth with the pink toothbrush that's in a cup. Afterwards, I walked out and roamed the area.
The smell of garlic invaded my sense of smell. I opened the door and slowly walked out of the room. I was welcomed with high ceilings above and huge paintings hanging on the wide walls. I feel so little. I continued walking towards where the kitchen is. I already have an idea about what Minho is doing.
I turn around and I was welcomed with a staircase leading down the first floor. I walked towards it and went down, each step is not making a noise because I was barefooted. I bit my lower lip when I saw his figure from behind. He was cooking something and was shirtless. I slowly made my way towards the kitchen counter and went near to him.
I was about to say something to catch his attention but his head turn to my side, making me glance away in shyness. "You're awake? This will take a few minutes more. Take a seat." He muttered.
My hand reached for the back of my thigh and felt myself little. I'm not usually like this although I had my mornings with Minho several times at my house. But this time it felt different. I stood beside him not moving a bit while he was focused on his cooking.
"Uhm . . . Minho?" I mumbled.
He looked at me with those sincere eyes that's full of infatuation. "Hm?" He hummed. When he noticed that it was taking long for me to construct a sentence, he leaned in to give me a warm kiss on my forehead.
"Do you want anything, darling?" He asked, his voice was deep yet gentle.
I shook my head and chewed on my lower lip. "A-are you mad at me?" I asked him, not being able to make eye contact.
"I was." He replied.
I nodded my head and looked around just to not meet his gaze. He was still staring at me and I cannot handle the tension he was emitting. "I . . . I can't think of any words to say to you . . ." I mumbled slowly.
"I'm really sorry." I said while biting my lower lip that felt like it's about to bleed.
"I should've known better. I shouldn't have believed whatever Jiyeon and Sean have said to me about you. I was just confused and mad but it won't change the fact that I hurt you . . . again." I spoke.
