[OH MY BABY] || TaeGyu

Chp 20

Next Day

"AISHHH! I ENDED UP STAYING UP ALL NIGHT TO TALK TO MY MUMMY AND KIDS!" Yunjin, an early riser, alarmed the whole house as she exited her room, scratching her disheveled morning hair.

"Nana! And Taejun—Gosh, I'm glad you're looking better now, little Tae." she exclaimed, greeting everyone in her usual energetic manner.

"Good morning, Lady Yunjin." Nana greeted the beaming alpha.

"I'll go ahead first." Taehyun drowsily spoke, looking effortlessly handsome in his office clothes as he massaged his stiff neck. "Hey, Yunjin, go home and make up with your wife already, please." he added with a sigh.

"I made you some lunch to take... if you want it." Beomgyu said shyly, handing the alpha a well-prepared packed lunch.

"Oh! Thanks, Gyu. That'd be great." Taehyun replied with a cute smile that made the omega quickly avert his gaze, glancing down at the floor.

"It's good to see them getting along." Nana remarked from the other side of the room, while Yunjin covered her mouth, trying to stifle her flustered giggles.

"WHAT'S THIS DEVELOPMENT?!" Yunjin mumbled to herself, squealing at the scene. "AHHH! WAIT! I NEED TO GET READY SOON TOO!"

Taehyun glanced at the omega, who was busy preparing breakfast on the table. "About meeting your friend..." he began.

"I-I was just about to ask him about a time." Beomgyu instantly replied, not looking back.

"I see. Let me know if our schedules line up."

"Hmmm. Check if you forgot something before you leave, Mr. Kang." Beomgyu replied, turning back to his old-cold self towards the alpha. He knew he wasn’t handling it right, but he felt overwhelmed somehow.

Taehyun went silent, simply staring at the omega’s small back. He walked over, gently grabbing Beomgyu's shoulder and placing a soft kiss on his head.

"You should start calling me by my name. Like last night." Taehyun murmured in the omega's red ear.

Beomgyu gasped, his face immediately turned into a rip tomato from the alpha’s surprise attack. Taehyun’s raspy voice broke through his exterior shield once again.

"T-THAT WAS BECAUSE LAST NIGHT WAS...!" Beomgyu tried to explain and push back, but when he saw the alpha’s charming grin, he felt his resolve crumble. For pit sake! he's retreating down the hill once again.

"See you later, Gyu." The alpha gave a thumbs up to the fuming omega.

"At least listen..." Beomgyu's face turned into a scowl, watching as the alpha happily bade farewell to Nana and Taejun while walking out of the apartment.

The omega’s heart pounded like a bass drum in his chest when the alpha looked back, a small smile plastered on his perfect face.

It feels a little late now, but I need to set things right.
