ROMAN EMPIRE - SVT FF

17 - PEASANT

I opened my eyes as I feel the warm water against my skin.. I was in my own bathroom, completely naked.. with wonwoo-

I'm speechless if it is a right word.. I remembered what happened before I get into full deep sleep..

'how much time I was out?'
I asked him.. '2 hours'
He answered

'what did you do in that 2 hours?'
I questioned.. 'watching you'
He answered simply.. if it were me, I wouldn't be telling it straightforward..

Watching me? 2 hours? My cheeks blushed..

In that time, I feel wonwoo moving behind me.. 'you must be sore'
He said..

How can he say such things openly?!

He started to massage my shoulder 'i heard warm bath helps'

Hearing it from him, it made me remember his scar on his body.. he must be going through a hard life..

'is that your father-'
He knew what am asking.. 'if he hear you, he will complaint against you for defamation'
He cut me off.. is he being sarcastic or something?

He is saying that his father is not a violent man but why is that hard to believe? Someone must be violent in his home to him- why am I thinking like this?

'then who?'
I questioned.. if not his father, then who?

'you are not ready to hear it'
He tried to close it

'try me'
Yes, I am desperate.. I want to know everything of him

'okay.. let's put it like this.. you tell me every freaking thing about yourself so I will do it.. even the nightmare.. your turn first'
I sulked.. he knows how to zip my mouth..

He took the shampoo and rinsing my hair.. 'why didn't you tell me you are a virgin?'
He asked me, casually

'i didn't tell you that I wasn't'
I answered 'you assumed it yourself'
I tried to take a look at him but he gripped my neck, making me straight..

'why are you a virgin?'
He asked me..

'what type of question is that?'
I asked him, raising my eyebrow

'why did you wait this long?'
He altered the question

'simply put, boys don't interest me.. I did prefer books than the boys drama.. now too.. i can't deny that I am attracted to you.. it's may be because you kept pushing me where I have no choice'
I explained..

'no choice, is it?'
His voice was cold.. I turned to look at him.. he stood up and walked out of the bathroom with his poker face

Water became cold.. it is not warm anymore.. all I remember is his poker face when he walked out of the bathroom

MONDAY MORNING

I was having my breakfast with my aunt and uncle.. they came back by Sunday..

'can you make a appointment for me with a psychiatrist?'
I asked my uncle..

It immediately get both of their attention.. I was seeing the psychiatrist from my childhood.. but I stopped somehow

'why? Did you get nightmares again? Why didn't you tell me? What did you see?'
My aunt questioned..

'no.. it's just about the stress of exams'
I denied

'okay, then'
Uncle said and I nodded 'you can tell us anything, pumpkin.. you shouldn't have to hide anything from us like you hide your relationship with wonwoo'
