Mathematical attraction

Chapter 84

Minho's P.O.V.
What could we do without moving around? Watch a movie! "Which do you want to watch?"

Joonie didn't impose.. As usual. "Whatever you want Minmin."

I frowned looking at my options. "Hmmm.. Jeez Namjoon I don't know! Pick for me."

He took a look. "Well.. Harry potter is always a good choice, but if you want action we can watch X-Men."

I liked the last option. "Mind an action movie?"

He grinned. "X-Men it is then." He put it in the player. "Where is your popcorn?"

Oh right. "Get my crutches, I'll be able to make it."

He denied. "You will sit down. You've been stepping on it a lot. Look at it, it's puffy again."

"It's just fine." I argued.

"He's right. Stay seated it's barely healed." Wonhae, that I now know is my uncle, said.

I pouted. "Dammit.."

"Popcorn is on the top shelf in the corner Namjoon." He told him.

He made it without my help and brought it back. "Sorry you're the guest, but do everything for me."

He sat down next to me, arm around my shoulders. "Don't think about it. I just want to help you." He kissed my forehead.

I glanced up at him with a mean smile. "You kiss without asking now? Got confident real fast."

"Oh shush it Minmin or I won't do it again." He complained.

"N-No! I like it. Keep doing it."
Namjoon's P.O.V
I liked how she'd be confident then shy up after my comment. She was so cute and tiny, yet vicious.. Just how I liked her. She wasn't very opened with PDA. It mostly was sitting close, an arm around.. Lately a kiss on the forehead or cheek from me and a kiss on my chin for her because she couldn't reach higher, so when she would shy up wanting a kiss closer to her lips, it was to die for.

She tugged on my shirt. "Do you mind?"

I shook my head. "No, do what you want to be comfy."

She put her legs on her side, her head on my chest and a peck the highest she could reach in this position, my neck. "Thank you."

I smiled looking down at my tiny girlfriend. "Need a blanket?"

She denied. "Your shirt is soft enough."

Now I was the shy one after her remark. "And play.."

The movie was long over when we were woken up by knocks on the door. "Did your mom invite anyone over?"

She frowned. "Not that I know of."

Her mother opened the door. "I'm so happy you could make it. Minho, come here. I have someone to present to you."

I got up. "I'll get your crutches."

I heard the old woman mumble. "I told you I couldn't hold a lie and you are putting me in front of her!"

Crutches under her arms, Minho made her way towards the lady. "No one has to lie to me now. Mom, can you introduce me to her?"

Her mother seemed surprised of her calm reaction. "Alright, Minho.. Meet Wonhae's mother, Joo Haewon." She took her husband's name. Common years ago.

Minho grinned. "She's my grandmother?! How nice is that?" She shook her hand with both of hers. "I'm sorry I can't bow down because of my injury."

"I-It's okay dear.." The lady said uneasy. "May I get a better look at you?"

I didn't know what that meant. Minmin nodded. "Sure."

The woman carefully held her chin and moved her head to analyze her from evey angle. "You look so much like his wife.. Yet so much like him. When I entered, I thought a ghost of her was here. You have my sons' eye colour and their strong stance.. I can't deny you're my grandchild.."

My peanut swimmer didn't know how to respond. "Thank you?"

She moved her hand away. "Sorry dear.. I-"

Minnie grinned. "I can get it might be a shock. Trust me, when I learned about my parents, it got me into this mess." She pointed at her crutches. "Maybe we could talk over a cup of tea?"

Ara jumped in. "I'll make it-"

Minho cut in. "Let me do it. Out of my mother's book. From scratch. Please. Joonie will help me." She turned to me. "Right?"

I nodded. "Of course!"

With my help, Ara gave in. "Alright. Just be careful."

Ara had never let her touch that book except for 30 seconds one time under her supervision so Minmin was glad to take a look at it again.

Minho's P.O.V.
I couldn't wait to do it myself! I opened the storage. It was all the way up there! I got on my tiptoes. "Why am I so short? Urgh!"

Joonie got behind me and picked it up. "There you go."

I smiled. "Thank you ladder."

He pat my shoulder. "Welcome dwarf. Tell me if you need other things."

I went through the book. "Hmm.. How about a raspberry rose tea? It looks tasty."

He nodded. "Sounds good! I'll drop all the dried ingredients for you. They're all on the last shelf."

"Probably so I wouldn't be able to reach it." I joked.

He chuckled. "Probably."

I followed the recipe mixing all the right herb quantities. "I want it to be perfect.."

He started boiling the water. "You truly are into this are you?"

I smiled. "It's more than that. It's tradition. My mom had it from hers and her mom from hers.. I want to keep the chain alive. Give it back meaning."

His arm rested around my waist. "As Joseon era princesses used to."

I chuckled. Well now I could brag I was dating a princess!
