Hello there fam👋
Special Chapter 9
"Excuse me, have you seen him? Kihyun?" I asked, a bit in panic. Actually, really in panic but I tried to hide it which didn't work.
"No, sorry" The maids replied. They all had the same answer and a stone face, as if they didn't understand how important it was for me to find him. Their reaction made me frustrated. I sat on the couch and massaged my head, trying to get rid of bad thoughts. It didn't work because all kind of thoughts rushed through my mind. I hated being left so lost, with nothing but time to wonder.
While I was busy assuring myself that Kihyun will be back, one of the maids came and offered me breakfast.
"No, thanks. I'm not hungry" She, on the other hand, showed no signs of giving up.
"You must eat! It's very important and I'm sure you would like to see what mister made for you"
"Mister?" I raised my head to look at her. "Who? Kihyun?"
She kept her stone face and told me one more time to come before disappearing upstairs. Confused, I got up and headed to kitchen only to see another maid putting a glass of water beside freshly baked eggs, pancakes and of course, chicken.
"Who made this?" I asked shocked.
"Have a good meal, Lee Na. I can bet that you will like this" With that she left off. I sat down and ate slowly, not understanding a single thing. Kihyun, if that was him of course, knew how to cook well. I would enjoy breakfast more if my confusion was lower, but I still liked the food.
"Please tell me if he made this" I begged as I helped a maid clean up the table.
"Was it good?"
"Yes, very. Now tell me, I need to know"
"I'm sorry but" She sighed as she looked at me. "I can only give you this, as I was told"
She handed me a piece of paper with a messy handwriting. I realized it was from Kihyun right away.
,,Hello beautiful. Did you sleep well? I hope my absence didn't ruin your morning.
I also hope you liked what I made and ate well, because you know breakfast is important. If it wasn't good, sorry, next time I'll make better.
Were you worried? Scared? Aye, don't be. Just be ready at 4pm and please, don't be mad.
Yours, Kihyun'
"Of course this is him, who else has such a horrendous handwriting?" I chuckled. I felt at ease, knowing he didn't leave me. While I was thinking, Yongguk came down and greeted me.
"Hello sis. What's that?"
"A letter. From Kihyun!" He got startled by my sudden cheerful yell.
"A child" He sighed. "My sister is still a child. By the way, I was told to hand you this"
In his hand there was a small crumbled paper that I took from his and spent some time trying to understand the written words. For that time he went to the kitchen and came back with an apple in his hand.
"Let me see" After a few seconds of staring, he read it out loud. "I'll be there at 3pm. Make lunch! "
I frowned at his words. "It can't be Kihyun, he said to be ready at 4. Is this a joke or something?"
"I never liked that guy" He said while handing me the paper back, but by his voice it was clear that he was joking. "I'm going to the supermarket. Wanna join?"
