A MAN TO HEAL

chapter six

POV Jimin

It was past midnight when the soft click of the door announces that someone is entering

I was there, sat behind my computer when she walks in

" It's late " I say

" So what? Now you're controlling me and what hour I'm coming home? "

I look at her

" If I was controlling you I would go to your office and stalk you for the rest of the night, I was simply pointing it out since you never came that late before " I reply

" I had work to do "

" I see "

She walks to the bedroom, her high heels clicking against the marble floor

" I ordered something, I thought you would be hungry " I let her know from my desk in the living room

" I'm not hungry " she replies

" Okay "

I run a hand through my hair as I stand up to join her in the room

She is now taking off her clothes

I stand and lean on the doorframe, just looking at her

She undoes her ponytail and let her hair slide on her back slowly

She massages her scalp while letting out a soft moan

" Are we not going to talk about what happened earlier? " I ask

She looks at me

" Jimin, it's almost two in the morning, you really think it's the right time for that ? "

" I don't wanna go to bed with the feeling that we're upset at each other "

" I'm not upset at you " she replies as she takes her pencil skirt off

I'm not really convinced, she doesn't even look at me

" But I feel like..."

" Then stop feeling it, jeez I'm tired, just... shut up " she says as she walks towards the bathroom

I sigh before heading to the dining room and removing the food I placed there, maybe we can eat it another day

I put everything on the fridge, I'm not even hungry anymore

I go back to my computer, it's clear that she is not going to have that conversation right now and any other day

Maybe she was simply in a bad mood, that's all

I finish to work on my next exhibition before I go back to the room and the alleged tired Emily is still up, also working on her PC

" You are still up " I say in a low voice

" Hum "

I slide on my side of the bed

" You didn't ask me about how the things went with the event planner today " I say

" I already know, she sent me pictures about the mood boards she made "

Already? She was quick with it

" Are you satisfied? " I ask hesitantly

She remains silent for a moment, only the noise of her fingers typing repetitively on the PC keyboards was resonating in the room

" I don't know...it wasn't what I had in mind "

" What did you have in mind then? Maybe if you had told me, I would have done a better work "
