I instantly started to cough, choking on the food from the shock that just blew up in front of me. Kai was still standing in front of me with the same expression from before, looking like he didn't care even though I was almost dying from not being able to breathe. To put it more simple; he looked genuinely bored.
His mother started to call for the maids in panic and they patted my back, asking if I was okay and giving me a glass of water while surrounding me. They all started looking at my face to check if I really was okay which made me feel self conscious.
I realized I had stopped breathing for a moment and began to inhale the air again before wondering if I was dreaming when this soon to be celebrity was standing in front of me. I was still having a hard time comprehending that it was really him so I was questioning my sanity and was hoping that I was hallucinating.
"What, your name is Jongin too?" he said arrogantly and smirked when he noticed that I was starstruck at the moment.
I blinked. "What? Eh n-" before I could introduce myself properly he just walked away to the dining room without letting me finish. My eyebrows furrowed from his rude behaviour and my heart suddenly clenched from being blatantly dissed. What an idiot.

The maids announced that is was dinner time and I felt my stomach growl in response. While me and my family walked to the dining room, I saw Kai already sitting there in a confident composure, not really caring about me and my family. It seemed like he didn't really like the thought of having us here which made me glare at him.
I was wrong. I thought I was going to spend the whole vacation with a weird nerd but I was going to have to be stuck with Mr. A-Class jerk of the century.
I cursed to myself in my head while mentally slapping myself twice for what happened earlier; getting lost in his doe eyes while he enjoyed that I was almost dying. I realized just now how embarrassing I was.
Everybody took a seat while the maids prepared to serve the food in the high ceiling kitchen and dining room. There was only one seat left and yeah, it was in front of him. I sighed quietly to myself while keeping a straight face, struggling with myself not to look at him while he looked bored and angry at the same time.
I awkwardly walked over to my seat and I tried to be nice to him before sitting, but he just ignored me and took out his smartphone and typed away something on it. I rolled my eyes and looked away while I felt my head boil in anger from his rude behaviour around a guest.

Under the whole meal, me and Kai were both quiet and silent, not really showing any interest to what our parents were chatting about. Both of our parents were catching up with each other and Hunter would laugh with them, being an angel and all as usual. I would glance at Kai now and then but he never took his eyes off on the phone unless he would pick up something from his plate to eat. He barely ate something though and I couldn't help but to look at his body, wondering if he really was as skinny as he seemed.
Both of our parents noticed the tension between us two and decided to break it.
"So, Jongin," my mother began. Please don't say anything stupid mother.I mentally crossed my fingers and started to imagine what she would say. The chances of it being stupid was big.
"Yes," he said without looking at her, still focusing on his stupid phone. What a jerk! At least look at her while she is speaking to you.
"Your mother just told me about your dream being a singer," she continued happily and tried to make eye contact with him but he didn't even glance at her. "You know, Sam sings pretty well too!"
I was drinking water before she said it and when my brain was done processing with what she just said, I accidently spat out the water. He automatically closed his eye as he got some on his face and with one finger, while still closing his eyes, he wiped away my water-mixed-with-saliva near his eye.
I just stared at him in disbelief of what I just did while he looked furious.
Did I just spit on EXO's Kai? Hana will kill me for this.
After a second I realized what I just did and just wanted to laugh from the thought of it. I laughed hysterically in my mind but kept a grin on my face, trying to keep my laughter away while Kai pierced his eyes on me, trying to mentally kill me for what I just did. I successfully avoided his eyes though while everyone else's eyes were on the two of us.
Suddenly I heard Hunter bursting out in laughter, breaking the hard tension. My parents just followed with it because it was already awkward as it was and suddenly Kai's parents chuckled as well before continuing eating.
"I'm going," Kai said in a cold voice, stopping everyone's laughter when everyone didn't take this accident seriously as he was. What was he expecting? That they were going to execute me?
"You are? Already?" Mrs. Kim said with a disappointed expression before standing up. "Well, show Sam your room then since you two are sharing a room," Wait... What?
I felt my body froze in shock and I glanced at Kai without moving my head to see his reaction and it seems like he wasn't taking it so well either. He stared at his mother in disbelief, hoping the words "I'm joking" would come out soon from her mouth, but it didn't. She just looked unaffected and looked at him as well, but with motherly eyes and a nice smile planted on her young-looking face.
"Share a room?" I said in horror while staring with wide eyes at Kai, which I regretted because his dark gaze shifted to me and made me gulp in nervousnes.
"Together?!" he screamed in anger while his fists clenched, indicating that he wasn't approving the idea either.
"Yes," she said casually before going to her spot on the table and sitting down on the brown mahogany chair. Did she not realize what a big bomb she just dropped on us? My mind went into a frenzy mode from thinking about spending the night in the same room as him and I suddenly felt sick from the thought of it, making me feel like I needed to hurl from nervousness.
Oh bloody hell.
