my butler, mister kim | meanie [discontinue]

two

under the thousand shimmering stars that shines beautifully above the night sky laid a husband and wife with their beloved young 8 years old child in between them.

one small family stargazing in the calm atmosphere. they stayed like that in silent with the only sound of crickets and the nights birds chirping around them. out of sudden, the boy in between suddenly squeal as he saw a shooting star passed by. his parents watched him eyes full in adoration as he cutely clapsed his hand together while closing his eyes tightly.

his mother leaned forward to whispered in his son's left ear, "what did you wish for, honey?"

"It's a secret," his parents look at each other while smirking before they began to attack him by tickling him on each side.

"s-s-stop! I-its tickles!" their son said in between his laughter.

as soon as they stop they're goofy action, his mother pot her right arm underneath his head and gave a sweet kissed on his forehead. "why don't you wanna tell us, son?" his father asked as he laid on his side with his hand on his head.

"I will tell you when I turn 18 years old!" he exclaimed, "but that's too long," his mother whined cutely.

"but its worth of wait. trust me," he caressed his mother's cheek.

"you know what son?" his father started, "out of all billions of stars that shines above us, that one tiny star represents you." his father said while pointing onto the tiny stars that was far away from the other stars that shinning in glory.

"why?" his son asked in curiosity while watching the tiny star.

"It's so small, but even with all it's flaws, it will stays the brightest in the sky. you are the same for us. you are just a small kid being in the whole world, but you shines out of all of them as you give that shinning aura around you that's really hard to miss and we are very happy to have you as our son. you are what matter to us now," his father said smiling down at him.

"you have to remember one important thing," his mother continues,

"and what is that?"

"that you must not stop or let someone stop yourself from shinning. Just like a star, it won't stop shinning even if it is during day or night. so don't ever stop making people happy and proud at you."

"and also remember that we will always be right by your side, wonwoo. always."

...

"good morning, young master. its time for you to wake up,"

"mmm, ten minutes, mister kim," he tells his butler.

mister kim, also followed by the full name, kim mingyu chuckled at the small sleeping figure who curled up in his king size bed.

mingyu walked towards the curtains, he open them in one swift move and making wonwoo groaned more as the bright sunlight attacks his face. mingyu stand beside wonwoo, his wide grin plastered on his face with his eyes turn into a crescent.

"mister kim~" wonwoo whined and sighed in defeat before he kicked the bed sheet away. forcing himself sitting on the bed, eyes still half-opened with his morning hair sticking out in every direction.

"today's morning tea, citrus mint tea. good for your voice, aching back and solem face," mingyu cheerfully said as he carefully pours the hot steamy liquid in a porcelain cup, "and also, a suitable way to cheer up your bitter mood in this beautiful sunny morning."

wonwoo looked up through his eyelashes, slightly pouting, "is someone coming this morning, again?" he knows mister kim only bring this tea for some reason and bet that theres a possibility he might have to speak with someone, that he doesn't willing to.

at this point, mister kim can only smiled sweetly at him. behind that smiled meant a lot of meaningful things.

"I'm afraid you're right, young master. the choi's family, the owner of the wahyo corporation, will be here within an hour. they wishes to speak with you."

wonwoo stop sipping his tea. wahyo corporation was one of the most biggest administration company under the government sector in south korea. most intelligent people with certificates that higher than phd works there, well in wonwoo's point of few. yet, wonwoo had never really into knowing deeper on what they actually do for business that made them so successful. wonwoo just heard one thing from his father that most of exams paper work sheets were printed there and that's not all, the owner and founder, named choi seungcheol was his father's closest friend.

they barely met and if the choi's suddenly calls, it'll probably about something important. something that which is probably would never be in wonwoo list of interest.

"do i have too? you can tell him i'll be having my tuition today so i can't... you know, meet him."

"sadly, he knew you cancelled your tuition class today."

wonwoo puts the cup away and laid back down, letting a loud huff and covered his face with his pillow as he muffled something.

mingyu leaned forward while smirking, "what is that, young master?"

"i said, fine! i don't know how he got my schedule but fine!" wonwoo knows he can't escape from the conversation, nor the meeting.

mister kim smiled even widely. wonwoo sometimes can't understand why his butler doesn't get tired with all of those smiles he shows in every second. but somehow, it didn't failed to gives wonwoo butterflies in his stomach.

wonwoo was still laying there and stared at his butler who was standing near to his bed while his hands behind him. mister kim grins out of sudden, and it creeps wonwoo out, in a good way perhaps.

mister kim leaned forward for the second time but this time, even closer to the shorter face. as he got closer and closer, he stop midway when his face was only an inches away from wonwoo.

he grins even widely when he saw wonwoo's cheeks tainted rosy pink.

"where's my morning kiss?" wonwoo pouted.

mingyu chuckled lowly before he leaned forward and finally letting his lips met wonwoo's plum but soft cherry one. it was nothing but a sweet loving kiss that only end for a second. wonwoo wrapped his arms around his butler's neck as their forehead bumps together.

"you'll promise not to leave by my side, right?" wonwoo whispered as he stared at the taller's brown orbs.

mingyu nodded, "i promise, wonu. i promise."

mingyu kissed his forehead sweetly before telling wonwoo to go to shower and the shorter obeyed him and quickly went to the bathroom.

leaving mingyu standing there in the big bedroom, his sweet charming smiled suddenly turn into a sad, sympathy one.

"don't worry, mr. and ms. jeon. as long as i'm here with your son, he'll be alright. cross my heart."
