Loving a Myth (ITZY Yeji x Reader)

California, U.S.A...

A few days later. . .

Your co-workers were dead worried until they had finally heard the news. Many had tried to contact you as soon as they could, but instead you went off somewhere without letting them know, which they thought they'd understand..

Thinking you just wanted some rest, but why in why go far away from home?

Little did they know you had to deal with a bigger issue.

The beast girl was with you.

Knowing she'd get in trouble once they've find out. And it was dangerous for her out there both in the skies and in the land.

You've watched those kind of movies, the mythological creatures being real and being hunted down, what's worse is to be killed for research purposes.

You just had to study her yourself.

At the moment, there was someone who was pushing the doorbell rapidly as you opened it and there she was, a beautiful woman whom you recently gave each other a GOOD NIGHT.

And her face was grumpy.

"Miss me?" You smiled at Jihyo who was in front of the door.

She punched my chest lightly but still painful enough. "You son of a bitch! Where were you!? Thank God you're alive but what the fuck are you thinking!? We all know you're alive but you didn't tell us you're hiding into this place!"

She then hit me with a bag a few times as I groaned in pain.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Please stop!" You laughed.

With a please, Jihyo did what you told. And she smiled back yet her eyes were watery, and angry all at once.

She went for a hug as she buried her head on your chest. "I thought I could've lost you."

"Otherwise, there will be no man who can beyond-satisfy my needs." You snorted as you hugged her back.

"Too bad I have injuries right now, also I don't want to make this entire house a mess, I just bought it." You replied.

"A house this big?" Jihyo let go of the hug as she looked around. "And you're living alone here?"

"Yep." You lied, the girl was somewhere hidden from the visitors, except for the doctor. "Come in."

"Oh great because I'm really thirsty."

With crutches under your armpits, you lead her into the kitchen as she immediately went to the fridge and opened it.

You grabbed a glass and gave it to her as she grabbed a box of chocolate, but you didn't mind because you bought more.

"So how did you know I'm here?" You asked as you leaned against the counter along with the crutches, watching her pouring chocolate on the glass.

"I was tasked by your father to take care of you," Said she, as she chugged the drink for a moment, taking her time. "he told me the address and I'm here."

"But why you only brought a handbag?"

"I just lived about a kilometer away, I couldn't find a rent let alone expensive ones, but your father will pay for it." She said a she took a deep breath.

This could lead into a trouble, you thought. "You know I can take care of myself."

"With those sling in your arm and a crutch?" Jihyo asked as she pointed at your injuries. "I won't be here but I'll visit here often, and just call me if you need something. If you want me to stay, I'll stay. I'll do everything you want."
