Still With You | KOOKV (ON HOLD)

Five

"Yah, Yeonjun.." Taehyung called out as he slumped on his seat with his head resting on the table.

The servant scurried to his side, alarmed at the call of his name.

"Yes, young master?" Yeonjun said, politely bowing his head.

The politeness in the servant's voice only made Taehyung pout as he continued to play with the book in his hand.

"I'm bored." He whined tossing and turning the book which was written in language he couldn't even understand.

"I'll die if I stay a minute longer in this place." He looked around the room which was filled with books. Just by looking at them, he could already feel his head aching.

"Let's go out, Yeonjun." His mood shifted at the idea, beaming in too much excitement.

However, the servant just apologetically bowed his head.

"I'm afraid we couldn't do that, young master. Physician Seo strictly forbids you to go out until you are fully recovered, young master."

"Oh come on!" Taehyung groaned in annoyance.

"I'm already fully recovered. Please? Let's go around town." He cutely batted his eyes in an attempt to convince the servant.

"My apologies, young master but going against Physician Seo's reminder might endanger you." Yeonjun bowed his head even more.

"Please understand, young master. It would be better if you'll spend time reading here while you recover." He added which in turn made Taehyung pout.

"Who would even want to read all these things? Damn." He continued to whine but Yeonjun just confusedly stood next to him.

"Young Master... you used to read those books before." Yeonjun answered which only made Taehyung whine even more.

"I can't even understand this shit." He pouted, tossing the book away from him as he loudly bumped his head on the table.

"Y-young master! You might hurt yourself!" Yeonjun quickly picked up the book that fell on the floor. He rushed to Taehyung's side, alarmed by the great change in his personality.

Taehyung was silent for a long while with Yeonjun discreetly glancing at his back.

He sighed in defeat which only bothered Yeonjun even more.

"Fine.. I'll just stay here." Taehyung murmured, feeling dejected.

He rested his head on the table while Yeonjun just silently watched him.

The servant felt bad for not allowing his young master to go out. It's rare for the latter to feel so excited about going out of the house.

He didn't want to reject him, but he couldn't go against an order which involves his young master's health.

"Can I sleep then?" Taehyung whispered afterwards.

"Reading makes me so sleepy." He added in between yawns which earned a fond smile from the younger.

"I'll get you a pillow, young master." He said, quickly excusing himself and rushing out of the room.

The sound of the closing door reached Taehyung's ears. He waited for a while before slowly lifting his head.

A naughty smile appeared on his lips as he stood, rushing to the door before Yeonjun could come back.

He opened the door, carefully peeking his head to check the hallways.

No one was on sight which only made Taehyung grin.

"I'll just head out for a while." He whispered to himself as he slowly went out of the room.
