the house was always quiet, even when I played some music, the house was just peaceful. I liked it though, sometimes it felt like I was just living in the world alone. I heaved a sigh every time I felt so lonely.
I looked at the clock wall, just a few more minutes for him to come home. so I went straight to the kitchen and checked if there was something I forgotten to prepare. I stood still near to the table while waiting.
until the digital door lock made a sound, that indicated he was home. finally, I felt my cheeks puffed as my lips curled into a smile, "I'm home!" said the man that I missed every seconds of my life.
immediately I approached him to look at his tired face, I gave him a tight hug and told him that he did a great job at work. he tightened the hug more with a heavy sigh at the end, "why? did something happened?" I asked while pulling my head away from his chest to look at him.
he shared his problems that happened at work whilst we were walking to the kitchen, "I'm just tired with the chairman giving me orders while he just sit there and do nothing," he rambled while shaking his head in disbelief.
"mr bok had always been demanding and all he does is controlling others." I knew his chairman's personality, I used to work with him, as his secretary. as he sat down, I walked behind him and massaged both of his tensed shoulders. "I made something special today, I hope you'll like it!"
back then; it was difficult for me to make him smile but living under the same roof as his legal wife, that task was the easiest thing to do. "thank you, darling," he grinned widely as I sat down across from him.
we talked about a few things that happened on our day, how he met a few clients and how I spent my day just cleaning the house—but mostly, he does the talk and I just listened. I just had nothing to talk about.
however I did want to discuss about chrismast eve. "so," I put down my empty glass after I took a long drink, "should we visit my mum this 24th?" I suggested, hoping that he could agree with me, but looking at his eyes, I could tell that he was not expecting it.
he took a deep breathe, "we'll think about it again, I'm not sure that I'll have time for christmas eve," he explained calmly to me with an apologetic smile at the end. I just returned the same smile, and told him that I understood.
"should we watch some christmas movies?"
"um, maybe not today. I brought some paper works so that I can finish it before tomorrow."
"It's alright, I can watch it alone," I gave him an assuring smile before I hung my head low and muttered, "again." I smiled to him once more while watching him stood up from his seat, he said that he wanted to take a shower, "sure."
I watched him walked inside and entered the room. then, I got up and picked the plates and glasses and put them in the sink, I spent a lot of thinking while washing the dishes. "darling," I was startled with his deep voice, I turned around to find him only covered with a towel on his lower parts.
"I think we should watch a movie."
his eyes disappeared in a thin line as he flashed his adorably toothy smile—like always, I fall in love with him again. "are you sure, what about your paper works?" I asked because I was worried that he might get in trouble on the next day.
"don't worry, I'll just finish it tomorrow morning. I want to spend my night with my wife," his words were always sweet and charming with me, and my heart couldn't help but to melt as if it was our first time flirting.
"go take your shower."
once I was done with the dishes, I sat down on the couch in the TV area. I switched on the netflix and looked for a movie to watch. "you choose," he suddenly appeared beside me with his cute satin pyjamas.
choosing a movie was like choosing a place to date, but in the end we watched the new movie, princess switch, which both of us didn't expect it to be a great movie. actually, we shared most interest, especially genre; we love romance, comedy and action.
despite his cold-hearted image in front of everyone, he has a soft spot for romance movie and novels too—probably that was why he could melt me easily with his sweet words, he was a hopeless romantic.
we stayed on the couch even when the credits rolling was about to end. I was leaning my body against him as he just pressed my body closer to him while he caressed my hair, "I'm sorry for leaving you at home alone."
I was surprised with the words that came out from his mouth, I wanted to deny but when he pressed his lips on top of my head, I blew it. I wrapped him in a tight hug, telling him that I missed him so much.
"I promised to take you somewhere but I'm just busy with works." I could hear the disappointment in his tone, and he felt ashamed of himself because he couldn't complete his promise.
"hey," I whispered, "it's fine. don't worry about me, I'm doing just fine!" even though I tried saying it with an optimistic tone, he just knew that I was in fact not fine.
he heaved a sigh, "I'm so sorry." the way he said it made me feel secured. "I'll figure it out," he added. I didn't how to explain how much I love him so much, he just knew how to make me feel calm.
looking back on our first date, I couldn't help but giggle and said "I love you, yoongi." because sometimes, I felt like I didn't tell him enough, and I wanted him to know that I appreciate him so much.
"love you too."
