LACUNA

CH-4

I entered into the room of Chanyeol's Grandmother. She was sitting on her bed and was busy saying her prayers. She is a strong believer of God and says her prayer every morning right after waking up. She usually takes her tea and breakfast after that.

I knocked on the door to get her attention. She saw me and a smile plastered on her face. "Good morning Grandma."
"Good morning my child. You are blooming like a flower today, beautiful and fresh." There she goes, she says that every morning when I came to her room.
"Oh really! Hmm, but that comment is not gonna save you from your medicine, you have to take it. Now be a good Grandma and take your medicines, OK."
She made a sour face at the mention of medicine but she knew very well that I'm gonna give it to her eventually so she picked it up from the tray along with the glass of water and make it down her throat forcefully, just like a child.

"Very good, now let's drink some tea with your favorite cookies which I baked for you, gingerbread cookies."

At the mention of cookies, she started grinning like a child which makes me feel happy as well. I put the tray on the bedside cupboard and served her green tea. She always drinks it, sometimes I tried to persuade her to try another flavor but she just loves green tea so much that I gave up on that thought and started drinking green tea myself in order to give her some company. Grandma rarely talks while eating, she doesn't consider it a good habit and scold others as well.

My eyes fell onto the wall clock which was hanging beside grandma's bedpost, 7:40 it says. Just 20 more minutes left until he arrives.
I spend 10 more minutes with Grandma and ask her to come for breakfast as well.

I walk to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast for everyone. As I was preparing the food I heard honks of a car arriving at the mansion. And I immediately knew who it was. Of course who else it could be other than my handsome, charming, gorgeous, and somehow cute husband. His personality is to die for and girls are crazy over him, well it's not like they are at fault though, he is hella attractive, a handsome devil who knows how to take away women's heart with just one glance. Actually, he doesn't even need to glance over them his striking personality is enough to please them. But he never really care for his looks at all, like all he cares about is his work.

He is obsessed with his job, he is the CEO of Park and Sons. One of the biggest conglomerate in the world. The company gained international recognition after purchasing several global companies, it is one of the biggest industrial groups in the country founded 80 years back. Park group has many subsidiaries ranging from Chemicals to Airlines, Catering to Financial Services and from Iron and Steel to Hotels, and many more like that. Since father can't work a lot now so all the responsibilities fell upon Chanyeol's shoulder. Sometimes I feel very bad for him, he can't rest at all and keep working day and night like a machine. Well, even a machine might get tired after working so much but not him.

He entered the mansion wearing a denim blue linen suit, his jet black hairs a bit messy, tie a bit loosen, and from his face, he looks very tired. Looks like he had worked overnight and didn't sleep at all.
The kitchen of this mansion is an open kitchen and is right beside the staircase which leads to the upper floor. Chanyeol passes through here every morning and it became a habit of mine to steal glances at him every day like my day wouldn't be complete if I didn't do that. On the other hand, he never spares a glance on me or even towards this kitchen or maybe you can say this whole corner of the house. I look like a high school teenager, who has a crush on some boy and because she can't confess her feelings to him so she just stares at that boy and hides her love for him.
I shook all these thoughts out of my mind and concentrate on preparing breakfast.
