Part 17

It was past 4:30 when i was able to reach home. As i walked inside i could see Taeyong in the living room drawing some stuffs on a paper. I walked over to her as she saw me and ran into my arms. She started complaining as i came back home ate.

As i noticed that Lea was no where in sight i asked Taeyong where she was. I heard some sounds from the kitchen so i walked over to the kitchen and i could see Lea standing in front of the microwave.

I noticed how she still haven't noticed my presence so i just stood there watching her. Lea was humming to the same melody which she used to make taeyong fall asleep. As she turned around with a plate in her hand she got startled to see me there.

"Oh. You scared me". Lea said as she put her hand in above her heart. 

"I'm sorry i didn't mean to scare you." I said with a soft smile.

"It's okey" Lea said while looking down trying to avoid eye contact with me.

I Love how easily she gets flustered in front of me. So i started to walk over to her in slow steps as she looked at me nervously.

"I cooked you some dinner." lea said while shuttering as she looked over the dining table.

I noticed how she had cooked different types of food and it warm my heart to see how much effort she had put into it. Since my parents past away i have never seen my dining table to be set with so much food like that.

As i was 2 steps away from her i stopped myself from walking further. I didn't want to make her uncomfortable.

"You didn't have to do that. It's not you're job Lea" I said softly to her.

"I know.. But i wanted to" Lea said as she looked up on me with a soft smile. 

I stood there just looking at her as she started to fiddle with her fingers. She looked like she wanted to say something but was hesitating to do do. So i asked her what's wrong.

"Ummm..... Can you help me?" Lea said looking all nervous.

"Help with what?" I asked her looking all confused.

"Can you ummm..." Lea kept shuttering.

"What happend Lea?" I asked her with my eye brows raised.

"Can you Untie this apron. It's stuck and i can't untie the not as i can't see it" Lea said the whole thing in one breath and so fast that i almost didn't understand it.

Without saying a word i kept staring at her and when she looked over at me she looked so nervous that it almost made me chuckle but i kept a straight face for some reason.

"Turn Around" I said to her as i walked over to her.

Lea seemed to be a little surprise that i agreed to help her. As i stood in front of her she hurriedly turned around and pulled her hair to one side revealing her neck.
