Silent Vows

Part 10

‘What could be the reason? I can't be wrong, she's clearly off. There's something going on but what's the problem?’

Jungkook was lost in his thoughts when he heard the doorknob turning as yn walked out of the washroom.

Glancing at her, he passed her a soft smile as she smiled back and walked to her side of the bed, sitting. “Yn…” She turned around, looking at him.

“Hmm?” He shifted closer, facing her. “You sure you're okay? Tell me if anything's bothering you.”

She shook her head slightly. “I'm fine. Don't worry!” He stared at her, nodding. ‘I really hope so. Even if there's anything, I'll find out eventually. I know you're lying.’

“How did you come back at this time? You usually get back late…” Yn asked, taking him out of his thoughts and back to reality.

“Oh yes! Well…” he leaned closer as yn looked at him, puzzled. “I was missing someone…”

She smiled slightly, nodding. “Oh, nice!” He frowned, moving back to his place. “You won't ask, whom?” She looked at him with a lost look, unable to answer. “Uh… yes, who?”

He sighed. “My mom.” She frowned. “Mom? You too?” He glanced at her, raising an eyebrow. “Don't tell me! You were crying because of her?”

She shook her head immediately, “No No! I told you, I wasn't crying. It was rainwater, that's all.”

He chuckled, looking at her panicked face. “I see…” Yn smiled slightly, looking away, avoiding eye contact as always.

[Few hours later]
Jungkook was working on his laptop, whereas yn was reading her book. She glanced at the clock, placing the book down and getting up.

Jungkook glanced up, sensing her movements. “I'll go look after the dinner. What'll you take for dinner though?”

Pausing for a moment, he smirked slightly, his gaze shifting back to his laptop.

“What can you make?” He asked, playfully. “Anything. What do you want?” She replied softly.

“You!” He voiced out, grinning. Yn stood there speechless, unable to process his words. “S-sorry? What?” He looked at her with an innocent expression.

“I said, Anything you like!” ‘Am I hearing things? But why the hell am I overhearing things like this?!’

She was lost in her thoughts, contemplating things when he snapped his fingers, jolting her back to reality. “Oh- yea, right!”

Hurriedly, she left the room, walking downstairs. Just as she left the room, Jungkook burst into laughter, placing his laptop aside and sitting by the edge.

“Yn, my dear yn! I'm sorry, but I can't help it!” Chuckling, he stood up, stretching his arms out.

“There's time for dinner, I'll go get a shower till then.” He left for bathing and yn was now in the kitchen, standing by the counter.

‘I’ve had enough sleep, neither am I tired… So why am I hearing things?’ She touched her forehead, checking her temperature.

‘This is so strange… and above all, embarrassing! Stay focused yn! What's wrong with you?’ Shrugging off her thoughts, she got back to work, preparing the dinner.

Time passed and soon she was done with everything. “Get the table ready, I'll be back shortly.”

She instructed the maid before walking out of the kitchen and going upstairs to their room.
