"Eura!" I came into the house seeing the TV still being on, but a woman nowhere to be found. "Eura?" - "Jay?" I heard from afar, knowing it's her room.

"Hey, what happe- YOU DRANK WITHOUT ME?!" I looked over to the bottle in her hand and her sitting on the bathroom floor. "Jay, I'm so sorry!" She hugged me, crying. "Eura, I'm not Jay." Sadly she didn't listen and just cried. I sighed and gave her comfort, "it's okay. He should be sorry." I mumbled in her hair as she wouldn't let me go.

She sniffled a bit and nodded "But I should love him better." - "Oh? Why?" I answered, questioning how she's able to answer so clearly while being drunk. "If I'd love him better he wouldn't have in mind to find another woman." - "Maybe he just fell out of love. It doesn't need to be your fault, Eura. You tried the best you could, he didn't appreciate it." I explained to her which left her quiet and Eura began to yawn.

"Tired?" She nodded. I picked her up and laid her on the bed "Thank you, Sunghoon." She mumbled making me smile. "No problem, good night."

"Why don't you-" I turned away from the door as Eura got up, "why don't you sleep on the bed today? With me." I thought for a second. Is she for real? All the time she had this wall built in front of her, not letting me in. Did I break the wall? Finally?

"You smell. Another time." I said before leaving the room completely. A deep sigh leaving my mouth.

Once I washed up and sat down on the table in the kitchen, I started sorting my papers from work.

"What?" I looked at the stove with a pot on top "Did she cook that before getting drunk?" I laughed and got up. Seeing simple pasta in that pot, I got a plate and filled it with the food.

After all I didn't eat something after lunch.

Quietly I sat back and started doing my work again while enjoying the food Eura had made. "She really could be my housewife." I laughed to myself, forgetting the time.

"Sunghoon?" A high pitched voice surprised me "Why are you still awake?" I looked at a hurting Eura, "Doing work, are you hurting badly? Should I make you some honey water?" She smiled while shaking her head. "No thank you. I'll just go to bed again." She walked to the couch and took the blanket, "or watch you and fall asleep." She smiled with closed eyes making me laugh. "The pasta is good. You should keep cooking for me." I winked at her as she laughed. "Okay, maybe I will be your housewife. Just marry me." Eura giggled half asleep.

I started getting an headache from all the working and the tiredness building up in me, so I decided to leave it and go to sleep. It was in the middle of the night and I had to go back to work tomorrow.

I sighed and went to brush my teeth.

"SUNGHOON!" Eura screamed in my ear causing me to wake up "WHAT?!" - "Move, I wanna sleep too." She pushed me to the side of the bed as she laid next to me. "Aren't you late for work though? It's almost 12." She looked at me while laying next to me. "Oh yeah, but I'll just walk in late." - "Won't you get in trouble?" I shook my head, "I'll finish late and come home later." - "Ah." Eura made an understood sound.

"What about you? Don't you go to work?" - "I'm on break." - "Mhm." She giggled at my response, "I'll make you something to eat, wash up and get ready." Eura messed up my hair and got up. "Just five more minutes." I mumbled and went to sleep again.

Minutes later I finally had woken up and got ready. Eura was humming in the kitchen to a song while making something to eat. "Good morning." I came in and took a glass of water "Good morning sleepy head." She made me smile. I sat across her on the island and looked at my phone.

"Oh by the way," Eura started talking "you didn't give me your number. How am I supposed to contact you?" Right.
I took one of the papers which were placed on the table and wrote down my number. "I'm not available most of the times at work, that's why you can contact me per email also." I gave her the paper, receiving a thank you. "I'm getting groceries later, are you allergic to something?" I shook my head no as an answer, "I just don't like seafood." Eura said okay before leaving me alone in the kitchen with the food.

"We should go shopping together though, it's gonna be too much." I bursted into the room after getting ready to go out. "No, it's okay. Haru is going to help me too." Eura smiled assured. "Haru?" - "My best friend." She showed me her phone as I saw a boy waving at me.

"Ah, okay. Are you going to invite him?" She nodded slowly, "That was my plan. I'll clean the house don't worry." I smiled "No there's no need. You keep doing the housework, I should help you." She nodded again, "I'll see you later, have fun at work."

"I won't, but you too also have fun." I winked at Eura as she gasped with a laugh following. "Living with you won't end well if you keep doing that." Eura mumbled holding the phone away from her face "I'M STILL ON THE PHONE!" We both laughed as I waved bye, "See you tonight."

she's cute.
