Hwayugi fanfic (Korean odyssey) : Guardian

Beautiful memories will wait for you part 4

Several books lies inside a kitchen draw. He takes them out.

On top of the book is a sticky note. It's Oh Jong's hand writing. There are a lot of information on the note. But there are also additional markings and side notes. The note is really wrinkled, as if the owner read it many many times.

As if he thought of something. He opens the fridge. Upon the many containers they have, he easily found the one. He opens it and tastes it.

He's shocked and his hand held onto his heart subconsciously.

Then he remembers, the GGG is gone.

Why............

Why does his heart ache?

This gentle yet dull ahce....what is it?

His expression becomes soft and gentle. Then he thought of something, his face shows a slight hint of sadness. Then he stood there silently..........

The sky starts to change and thunder rumbles. Shortly after, rain starts to fall.

_____________________

She got slightly soaked by the rain and starts to run back from the beach towards the house.

As soon as she opens the door, she falls into his embrace.

Seeing that he's about to go out to search for her because of the rain, all the frustration she pented up starts to melt.

Maybe, when he's sleeping tonight, she will try to cook again.

She takes a shower and starts watching TV. There are advertisements about the newest electronic rice cooker. Should she throw away the failed sauce from the fridge? But the moment she opens the fridge, the sauce is gone.

She tries to look for it........did he?.......but that's impossible.

She walks towards the living room with damp hair, his expression remains unchanged.

She feels unsettled. He suddenly calls out to her :" Come here."

She walks towards him. He pulls her onto his lap with his long arm. Taking the towel, he starts to dry her hair.

He's hand......is so warm.

In the world, she only has him left.

Someone like him, will tell her to put more clothes on when it's cold. Will go out to search for her when it's raining. Will dry her hair for her when it's wet........This is him.

The fairy-nim that's born from stone, sometime feels as gentle as the spring breeze.

"The thing........that I left in the fridge........"

Hesitantly, she opens her mouth to ask.

"Oh that, it doesn't taste bad after all."

His hand stops for a moment.

Ate.......he ATE IT?!

She turns around and look at him with shock : "You ate.........? All of it?!"

But........she tried it...............it taste awful........

"Yeah."

He looks into her eyes and replied honestly.

........Suddenly, her heart is thrown into confusion. She quickly turns around. He's still drying her hair. She doesn't know what to say, she hangs her head, a single drop of tear falls onto his hand.

He stops and then sighs.

"I'm not lying." He hugs her from the back and lightly rests his head on her shoulder. "Because you made it, so......I'm very happy. So when I ate it, it felt like I ate a world's worth of Ice-cream and cotton candy."
