PICTURES

Minghao was just casually taking pictures of you. Even if you wouldn't look, he would still do it. His camera is already full of pictures of you. Although you aren't photogenic, he didn't care. It made you wonder, "Minghao, why do you keep taking pictures of me? I'm just cooking." You said when you heard another click of the camera.

He always brings his camera around, even at home. "I like it, I like keeping pictures of us." Minghao replied as he looked at the picture he took of you. You sighed and continued cooking. When the food was finished, the two of you ate together. "Minghao, put the camera down." You scolded him but he didn't listen. You were starting to get annoyed at him.

As you finished your food, you stood up and left him. The next thing you were supposed to do was to arrange the things inside your shared bedroom. You went there and started cleaning. He also went inside afterwards. While cleaning, you saw an unfamiliar box under the table. You were about to open it, when Minghao stopped you.

"Don't open that." He said and grabbed the box. You were curious so you asked, "What's inside? What are you hiding from me?" You tried to get it from him but he won't give it to you. He still wouldn't give up so you jumped on him. Tickling wasn't enough so you put all your strength to reach the box. After all the chaos, you were finally able to hit the box and it fell to the floor.

The things inside it were scattered all over the floor. "Pictures?" You look at all the scattered pictures. There were a lot of pictures of you and him. You couldn't believe what you were seeing. "Minghao, why do you have a lot of pictures? You do know that I don't like collecting pictures. I only like to make memories, not save memories."

He sighed while picking up all the pictures and placing it back inside the box. "That is why I kept this a secret. I knew that you would react like this. I like to collect pictures to remember the past, our good days together. I don't see anything wrong with that. If you don't like it, at least someone should and that would be me." He replied.

You stood up and went in front of him. "Tell me, is it necessary for you to take pictures all the time? Even when we eat lunch, you do that. I'm just saying that we should just enjoy the present and put the camera down sometimes. You should only take pictures when were going out." Minghao stood up and held your arms before he spoke.

"Y/N, listen. Please, just understand me. What if one day, you'll be gone? What if I get amnesia and forget all about you? What if we get separated? I'm afraid of those happening, that's why I save memories. Even if we're gone, those pictures show that we are still together. That's how much I love you."

His speech made you tear up and hug him tight. You didn't expect him to even think that way. "B-but I'm here. Real memories stay inside the heart, not pictures. Don't think that way, Minghao." He wrapped his arms around you. "Well, we just made a memory without me taking a picture. Happy now?" He asked jokingly, giving you a smile.

You smile at his humor. "Don't make me feel bad. Stop joking around." Now, he looked at you in the eyes. "What? I'm just trying to lighten up your mood. Don't cry anymore, I'm sorry...but I'm still taking pictures, though." "Sure, whatever you say, Mr. What if." He laughed at the silly nickname.
