Reluctant Beginnings

Hoseok leaned his head on the door of his room that he was now going to share with his wife. With a sigh he turned the knob and entered his room  to find Taehee sitting on the side of his bed with her feet on the carpet.

She looked up at him and he opened his mouth to say something but there was nothing to say so he closed his mouth and the awkward silence continued.

Hoseok looked around the room to find something that would help him overcome the awkwardness but a big part of him just wanted to turn around and exit the room.

But that's not what was expected of him, he very well knew what he was meant to do and that was solidifying the union by the means of bringing a heir for both of the family.

Hoseok couldn't bring himself to participate in this activity and choose to run into the washroom with the change of clothes.

There he stared at his favourite picture of Mirae that he refused to delete like the other pictures that he reluctantly erased from the memory of his phone.

A sigh full of sadness left his mouth and he closed his mobile screen.

When Hoseok emerged from the washroom, he found Taehee in the same position he left her before.

Without sparing her one more glance, Hoseok walked around and settled on the other side of bed, facing away from Taehee.

Minutes passed and turned into hour, Hoseok faked his sleep and heard Taehee finally moving from the position that she stubbornly assumed for hour.

Sound of the water hitting the floor could be heard for a whole hour before Hoseok felt a dip on the other side of bed.

The day ended and Hoseok didn't hear his wife's voice addressing him even once.

He miss Mirae.
