[COMPLETED] the first ; 첫 (SVT Vernon X Reader)

9: You're thinking of me, aren't you?

¤ 한솔 ¤

I don't know why I'm doing this. This is not me. Seungkwannie can prove that. Grabbing all the courage I can, I made my way to Cheol-hyung's room. He's writing again. Seriously. How is he so productive?

"Hyung," I called him, "I'll be going out." Please, please, please allow me. Why am I saying please?
Not looking up, he answered. "Wae, mwoga? We're gonna have a shoot today. You should rest. I can't have you all tired and haggard later. Managernim-hyung will kill me."
"My... I ran out of supply." Buy it.
"Of?"
What? What did I run out of? "Oh, Twix. Yeah."
"Why are you so uptight these days, Hansol? Is something wrong? Loosen up," he said, finally putting down his pen and looking up. Fixing his glasses, he squinted his eyes at me.

Crap. I'm done. He won't allow me. I know it.
"Oh no, I know that look."
"What look?"
"That look."
Huh?
"Oh, ho ho. You're so done for, kid. Fine. Just... don't take too long. Be here two hours before our sched. Two hours, deureosseo?"
Coups-hyung picked his pen up again and continued writing.
"Y-ye. Gomawoyo!" With that, I ran out of the dorm before he even change his mind. Wait, why am I running? Am I in a hurry?

Since Eomma's house is not that far, it just took me 10 minutes after taking the bus before reaching it. Walking towards the gate, I pulled out my phone and dialed her number.
"Yeoboseyo? Eomma~ it's Han-"
"HANSOL? YAH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" I almost dropped my phone when I saw Aerin-eomma in her garden, watering her plants.
She hung up the call and put down the water hose. I waited patiently as she opened up the gate, bear hugging me first before allowing me to enter.

I love Aerin-eomma, but she really is a hugging monster. "What's up, kiddo? You never call me 'eomma'. What's the deal? You got a problem I can help you with?"
"Mwo? I do call you that."
"Nope."
"Yes."
"Aish, fine. But still, no. Duh, you call me 'noona,' and you don't call Cheol 'appa,' either. So, why did you visit me all of a sudden? You have a shoot today! Does Cheol know you're here?"
But I do call her 'eomma.' Crap, I can't think of anything. "Uh- do you have some fries?" Aish! Why fries, of all things?! Get a grip, Hansol!
"Huh? Yeah. They're in the fridge? Wait, woah-" Aerin-eomma crossed her fingers at me, forming a... is that a cross?
"Why... why are you doing that?"
"Y- you're not my son. Nuguya?! I command you to get out of his body, jigeum!"

Now, I understand how Seungcheol-hyung liked this noona. They're definitely from the same road. Or town. Whatever.
"Noona, remember when I had to buy your sanitary napkins just because Cheol-hyung ordered me to, just because he was panicking and did not want to leave your side when you suddenly got your per-"
"Fine, fine! It's you. What do you want from my fries?" Now she's squinting. Oh my God.

Why do people like to squint at me? Am I a squint magnet? Am I squint-able?
"I'm- I'm just hungry, come on-"
Aerin-eomma suddenly laughed. "Dude, I'm just joking. Come in, you know where the kitchen is, go help yourself."
"Jinjja, Eomma. Aigoo." I faked being done, while she just continued her laughter. What a mother.

With that, I found my way to the kitchen, setting up the electric stove, heating the pan, opening her fridge and taking out the sliced potatoes.
Potato. She's probably somewhere here. Crap- I forgot to comb my hair. I did not even look at myself in the mirror. Did I- yeah, I brushed my teeth three times this morning.

After frying them, I felt the call of nature so I left them in the table for a while to go to the restroom.
Washing my hands, I can't help but look at my reflection.
My hair looks like a bird's nest. Oh my God. Oh, well. I'm still handsome. Ah ye~ah.
Why am I even here? It's actually true that I ran out of Twixes, and I should have gone to the store to refill my jars. Why did my feet bring me here?
Even Aerin-eomma finds it weird. I'm becoming weird. What is happening to me?
Aigoo. Too much thinking is bad for the health.
