A MAN TO HONOR

chapter twenty six

Taehyung

I wait for Kailah on her doorstep as she told me to

I have no clue why I am that nervous to see her tonight

After the last time we spent the night together at the apartment, I didn't see her again during the rest of the week

When I go to the apartment, she was already gone, only a new vase of flowers, smell of fresh detergent or something missing in the refrigerator were the proof that she was around before me

And even when I went for my horse riding lessons, she wasn't at the equestrian club

We sent each other a few textos, but it's never enough for me

I always miss Kailah

All day everyday

So tonight, ain't gonna let her take a break at all

The atmosphere in the family mansion was quite calm

My grandfather didn't ask me any intrusive questions nor talk about my behavior

So maybe my mother didn't tell him about that yet

We only talked about business, travel and golf

That's why I'm not worried about taking Kailah with me tonight

My mother's guests list is so long that she will barely notice her

And she would have too many people to welcome and chat with to even care about my own guest

I take a deep breath, waiting for that door to open

And when it does, my eyes widen

Amazed!!!

Lord!

I know Kailah is pretty, I know she is stunning, she is magnificent

But the woman standing in front of me tonight should have an unique and new word to describe her beauty

A word only made for her perfection

I remain speechless

I have so much to say that I can't even place a word

" You are... delightful Kailah ,You are truly radiant, your beauty leaves me speechless "

" Yet you're speaking " she replies with an eyes roll

she plays indifferent but the little tint of pink on her cheeks proves that she is not that indifferent

I find her so resplendent tonight that I don't even want to go to this party anymore, the idea that other men could look at her, desire her, court her makes me crazy with jealousy, she doesn't belong to me, yet just the idea that she could be hit on by another man bothers me

she wears a dress worthy of being in a museum, its slightly pinkish beige color highlights her matte and tanned skin, her black hair pulled up in a bun on her head and a few curly strands make a pretty finish, on her ears sparkle the earrings that I gave her and as usual, she did not forget to match it with her red lipstick which makes her so intoxicating, the wind made the long cape of her dress move slightly which cascades down her back, joining the bottom of her dress, spread around her so perfectly

" I...you..." I stutter

She smiles at me, making my heart flutter

" You're not bad either "  she says, staring at me

Well, I doubt that

My mother's dress code for us men ,was to only wear black tuxedo, white shirt and black tie
