The Rebirth Of The Empress Lin Yona

Chapter 5

Jeon Jungkook:
I slapped my face lightly, when I walked past her, and entered the bathroom. “Did I just laugh?!” I mumbled, and tried not to laugh again, remembering how she looked in my clothes, drowning in them. “She looked cu-” I shut my mouth immediately, was I just about to call her cute! Snap out of it, Jungkook. She is fake, just like the others.
I finished my business in the bathroom, noticing that everything was a mess. “Ugh this stupid girl” I mumbled, and cleaned the mess she made in my freaking bathroom. I walked out of the bathroom, and saw her sitting on my bed, looking around in confusion. “Why are you still here? Where is my breakfast?” I said, not really wanting to eat her food, but I just wanted to get her out of my sight. She looked lost and nervous, making me frown.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know how to cook!” I yelled, and she pouted while nodding her head slowly. “Of course, you are a spoiled brat” I said, feeling slightly guilty, when she looked hurt. “What is ‘brat’?” She asked, making me sigh. “Of course, she didn’t just lose her memory, she lost her brain cells too” I mumbled, and walked out, feeling her follow me.
I reached the kitchen, with her following me like a puppy that wants to be fed. “Give me eggs from the fridge” I said, and she didn’t move. “Hello? I said give me eggs from the fridge” I said again, and she looked at me with her big, innocent eyes. “Ummm what is ‘fridge’?” She asked, making me slap my forehead, causing her to squeal in surprise. “You have to be kidding me!” I said, and looked at her with a serious expression. “Roll up your sleeves, we have work to do” I said, and she again, looked at me with confusion.
I sighed loudly, and held her wrist, making her flinch. I rolled up her sleeves, and froze when I saw the bandages around her wrist. They were slightly red, making me realise that my strong hold, made her cuts bleed a little. Looking at her face, she looked in pain, but was trying to cover it with a gentle smile. “It’s ok, you didn’t hurt me” She said, as if she just read my thoughts. I cleared my throat, and held her hand gently walking towards the counter in the kitchen. “Wait here” I said, and went to get the first aid from the cabinet in the kitchen.
I opened the box, taking new bandages from it, and some alcohol. “Sit on the counter, I will change them for you” I said, realising that I looked like a fool right now, who cared for a woman. “I am only doing this, because your mother is visiting today” I said, covering my concern with fake excuse. “Did I just say fake?!” I noticed that she was still standing, not making any move. I sighed, and picked her up, placing her on the counter. She let out a loud gasp, but I ignored her, and focused on her wrists.
I took off the bandages gently, and I felt my heart hurt, seeing the deep cuts, that were stitched. I sighed, and put alcohol on them, causing her to flinch. “Stay still, it will be done soon” I said, and she nodded, staring at me as I continued to treat her wrists.
“You are really kind, my mother told me that you are kind, I can see why she said that” She said, and I scoffed. If only she knew how I treated her before she loses her memory, she will hate me for sure. I stopped, not liking the idea of her hating me. I shook my head, and decided to just act kind today, and starting from tomorrow, I will ignore her again.
After treating her wrists, I looked at her, and saw that she was looking at me with a pout. “What?!” I asked, and she blushed, pointing at her stomach that growled loudly. “I am hungry”
Lin Yona:
“Oh, you are hungry, then move and make something” Jungkook said, and I nodded, getting off the table he placed me on, and just stood on the floor beside him. He rolled up his sleeves like he did to me, and I awed when I saw his big muscles. “Wow, you have big arms and muscles, no wonder you picked me up with ease. You are so cool!” I said, and his cheeks turned slightly red, and he cleared his throat.
“Shut up, and focus” He said, and went towards something with a long door, opening it, he took two eggs, and closed its door. “This is the fridge, where we keep the food, so it stays cool and doesn’t get rotten” He said, and I gasped loudly, making him roll his eyes. “His eyes are going to fall off his face, if he continued to do that” I thought.
“Look, you are not a princess from a fairy tale, you need to learn how to do everything, and stop relying on the others” He said, and I frowned, “But I am the Empress” I thought, but nodded at him.
“Ok, crack this egg here like this” He said, and cracked the egg in a large bowl, making me gasp. “Don’t make the egg shell fall into the bowl. We only need the egg white, and the egg yolk” He said, and I nodded, trying to watch his moves again in order to copy them. “Here” He gave me an egg, and I cracked it gently, making him sigh. “Why are you so gentle, crack it harder” He ordered, and I smashed the egg on the bowl, making it spill on the floor and on the table. “Ughhhhhh” He groaned, and I looked at him with guilt. “I am sorry.....”
After wasting three eggs, I finally cracked one, successfully placing the yolk and the white in the bowl. I jumped, and hugged Jungkook, making him flinch, and almost lose his balance. “YESSSSS!! I did it! Did you see me?” I said, smiling widely at him, and noticed that his cheeks became red again. “Y-Yes, I saw you. Now move” He pushed me away gently, and cleared his throat. “Let’s finish this, I don’t have time for this” He said, and I nodded, watching his moves again.
After some time, we finally made our breakfast, which was something called ‘omelette’ with ‘sausages’. “Mmmmm! This is so good, it’s my first time eating these things. Thank you so much!” I said, and he nodded, not looking at my face. “After eating, go and change your clothes because I can’t let you greet our guests while looking like this” He said, making me frown, and look at my clothes.
“But what do I wear?” I asked, and he sighed. “You see this bag over there” He pointed at a bag that was on the floor, across the big room that has the TV in it, (living room). I nodded, and he drank his cup which had a wired brown liquid, (coffee). “It has your clothes, you can pick something from it, and then push it under the couch because I don’t want your mother to find out that I don’t let you put your clothes in my room” He said, and I was confused, but nodded nonetheless. I finished my food, and I saw him placing the plates in the thing, that looked like the one in the bathroom, (sink).
“Can I clean them? I want to repay you for helping me earlier” I said, and he cleared his throat. “I was going to let you do them anyways. Here, clean them with this loaf and this dish wash. After cleaning them in the sink, place them on the counter beside the sink” He said, and I nodded, walking towards the ‘sink’.
I had a war with these dirty plates, as I kept washing them with this weird ‘loaf’. Turning the handle of the sink, the water fell on the plates. I finished cleaning everything, and felt proud of myself because I did this by myself, and not with the help of anyone. I walked towards Jungkook, who was sitting on the thing called ‘couch’, and waited for him to say something.
He looked at me, and sighed when he saw that my clothes were all wet. “Oh, good job, now go and change your dirty clothes” He said, and I nodded, walking towards the bag that he told me about earlier.
