When Grim Reaper got home, he found Eun Tak laying on a couch. Kim Shin was nowhere to be found.
"Where is your um...uhh...ahjussi...?"
"Oh, ahjussi is in his room. He is fixing it so that I can spend the night there."
There was a long awkward silence. Grim Reaper was so good at being awkward. Eun Tak then stared at him which kinda scared him.
"Anyway.., I have been thinking... instead of calling me samchon, you can call me oppa 오빠 (big brother)"
"Okay, oppa" Eun Tak said with a grin which melted Reaper's heart. He liked being called oppa!
"Have you eaten yet?"
"I am fine. You don't have to worry about me oppa!"
"I insist" Reaper said
"Wooooww you are really like an oppa! Very caring of your yeodongsaeng!" (little sister)
Grim Reaper shook his head and went to the kitchen. Eun Tak bounced up and followed him.
"I am vegetarian. I only cook vegetables. Tell me if you want something else and I will call your ahjussi to make it for you."
"Its ok oppa. I will eat vegetables. I can make it myself too so that you won't--"
"No. I will make it."
"Awww! So sweet! I really feel like your yeodongsaeng!"
Reaper felt his heart beat.
"It is just that, I haven't cooked for someone in a while" Reaper said sarcastically.
"Its okay.., I thought so too."
Reaper was about to apologise when Eun Tak suddenly grabbed the paring knife and carrot he was holding.
"Here, let me!"
As he took it from her, he felt her hand a little. He couldn't see any past memories. He only felt the comforting warmth of her fingers that touched his ice-cold hands---- which was unusual. He could do nothing but watch Eun Tak peel the vegetables.
"All done!"
Reaper just stared at Eun Tak.
"Oppa? All done!" Eun Tak then pushed his shoulder a little.
"Sorry. I just spaced out for a sec. Let me finish making your food. You may wait at the table. I insist." Grim Reaper said avoiding eye contact.
"Okiii oppa! I will wait at the table!"
Ahhhh... he finally had time away from that Eun Tak. Its not that he didn't want her around, its just that he felt different. He felt something that he had never felt before.
Meanwhile Eun Tak was at the table.
"This house is huge!" She thought to herself. She then wondered why her oppa was so awkward and, why did he stare at her for so long. It made her feel weird but, she thought that it was funny too.
"That oppa is like a kid!" She thought to herself. Little did she know that Reaper could hear her thoughts.
"Eat up and go to sleep" Reaper said.
"Thank you! I am going to have a good meal because of you~!"
"You're welcome. Now eat."
Eun Tak began to eat.
"Mmmm.... this is delicious! It reminds me of my mom's cooking... won't you eat oppa?"
"Oh yes I forgot. I'm sorry about your mom." Reaper said as he got his food.
"How did you know about my eomma?"
Shit! Reaper thought to himself. She can't know that I am a Grim Reaper!
