Chapter 9 [2]

Taehyung POV.
I woke up by the sound of an alarm coming from my left ear. I looked at the time and it was 5:30am. It was time for Taeho to wake up for school.

I stood up with all my strength and went towards sleeping Taeho.

"Taeho-ah. Wake up. It's time to go to school." I said.

He immediately stood up. That's unusual. He made his way up into the bathroom with his towel and took a shower. I looked at Taeguk, with a smile. She looks just like Hyejin when she sleeps.

Hyejin POV.
I stood up with all my strength and looked at the time. I sighed. It's too early. But I can't sleep anymore.

I looked behind. I saw Sungjin. I just remembered that I fell asleep on his shoulder yesterday. He must've carried me here in the bedroom.

"Hyeobo. Stay here. I'll cook breakfast my ownself. You're still tired." Sungjin's sleeping voice suddenly spoke up, pulling my arm as I walk away towards the door.

"Oh. Aniyo(No), it's okay. I can do it. Don't you have work today?" I asked him after I faced back staying in the position while he holds my arm.

"No. I'm late shift today. Instead of fighting over cooking, how about let's cook together?" Sungjin asked.

"Hm, that's great. Let's go then." I responded.

He didn't say anything but stood up as quick as he can and carried me bridal way outside and down the stairs. The kids weren't home. I guess they went school today.

As Sungjin carried me, it feels like he planned this all the way before. It feels like I'm living in an expectational world. It doesn't feel like reality. Even when I hold his hand, not a single memory of him comes up or not a single memory of moments that happened before my accident.

"What do you wanna cook today? Yah, hyeobo. You're not answering?" Sungjin's voice suddenly fades in. I shake my head and smiled immediately.

"How about kimchi stew?" I asked.

"Or Sunny Side Up?" Sungjin suggested.

When he said that word, a memory comes in. But not really. It's like a teaser of a memory. I don't really know. But I feel like I cooked this recipe many times before. Many times with someone I can't clearly tell.

"Uhm, hyeobo, by any chance, do we often cook sunny side up before my accident?" I asked.

"Hm, sometimes? Wae(why)?" he responded.

"Nothing. And yes, I'm also fine with Sunny Side Up." I smiled.

Sungjin prepared the frying pan. I went to the living room and sat on the couch. I tried remembering harder but it's like something's blocking me for remembering everything. If this is an amnesia, why am I getting small memories?

I looked at Sungjin. He noticed that I stared at him so he gave me a little smile. I smiled back and kept watching as he cooks the food.

Taeho POV.
I walked all the way towards the back of the restroom. I took my phone out and saw 2 messages from Seohyun.

Seohyun: taeho-ah! i met friends on the way to my class. where are you? i want to meet you already.
Seohyun: tell me where you are. i'll go there. we're free now.

I don't know if I should reply or not. Or if I should leave it.

I want to reply.
But at the same time I don't.
What should I do?

If I reply, she'll meet me. Then those guys will start saying things about me again. They'll start telling Seohyun the things about me. Then I don't know what will happen next. Will Seohyun stop being with me or will she stay with me?
