The Sky and You

Chapter 7: A Party?

That morning Keun Suk was frantic. He was half walking, half running as he went from one room to another. He searched the bedroom, none. He went to the theater room, none. The bathroom, the living, or the kitchen, then the storage room, even the closet none. He can't find her, Belle is gone.

The moment Keun Suk opened his eyes, the first he ever thought of and wanted to see was Belle but he couldn't find her. In the bedroom the only thing he found was her phone, her things are still there, her luggage still sitting in the corner but there was no sign of Belle.

Where in the world are you Belle, he desperately thought.

He kept on pacing back and forth, thinking of where could she possibly so early in the morning. Not even a note or whatsoever.

Out of no where, Kiki appeared and ran up her cat ladder. He went and carried her in his arms.

"Kiki-ya, have you seen Belle? Seriously I am going to go crazy just thinking of her," he told Kiki while scratching the back of her ear. "My mind won't even rest. Is it so hard to even write a note saying to where she's heading? Or even bring the phone with her? I am starting to consider putting a leash on her so she can't go anywhere. You understand me right, Kiki," he said venting out his frustrations on the poor cat.

"Who are you going to put a leash on?"

His eyes widened with shock as he heard Belle spoke behind his back. He slowly turned and there she was, a smug on her face. She rested the bag she was carrying on the dining and took off her coat.

He put Kiki down on the top ladder and hopped towards her. He hugged her from behind and kissed her head.

"And where have you been young lady? I woke up and found out you were gone. Did you even think of how worried I would be?" he whined.

"Sorry, Oppa. I just went outside for a bit. I didn't know you'd wake up early."

"Still next time leave a note, or bring you phone with you. I would die of heart attack here," he said and Belle forced herself not to roll her eyes.

"I was just at the bakeshop Oppa, I saw it yesterday and breads look delicious, you know I don't usually eat rice for breakfast, besides I didn't even take that long," she reasoned out but Keun Suk wouldn't hear of it.

Belle got punished and end up doing all the dishes.

After breakfast the two went out to do some shopping. Belle was against the idea of Keun Suk coming with her but because he was still punishing her for going out without leaving a note, he didn't listen to her. He had so much fun tormenting Belle at the supermarket.

She won't walk next to him. If he took her hand, she would look left and right, shot him a deadly glare then take her hand back. Behind his mask, he can't help but smile. He was sure Belle was going crazy hoping and praying that nobody recognizes him.

Korea is very different from Japan. He can actually walk around anywhere without hiding himself and nobody would care about him, but for Belle's peace of mind, he put on a mask and cap. But still Belle couldn't relax and he end up teasing her more, it was so much fun.

At the supermarket, he pushes the cart, while Belle picks up whatever he tells her. He kept on pointing on a lot of things, even unnecessary one, until she realize he must be playing with her and snapped at him. He couldn't contain his grin. He is having so much fun, its one of the things he always want to do with her, till they grow old, shopping for their meal.

But that day, he won't be preparing a meal for two, but for a lot of people. He had invited his friends to come over, for a party. While he does the cooking, Belle went and started cleaning the entire house.
