❝ Good morning! ❞ Sohee cheerfully greeted the older boy who's not expecting her cheery personality to pop out of the blue. ❝ Morning to you too. ❞ The young adult plainly greeted, although his generous side was way too happy to see the joyless girl being all jolly as she should be since the first place.
The housemaids already served the food on the dining table but their shift already ended for today since Heeseung had some plans to do. ❝ Would you mind if I ask you one thing? ❞ The boy who's trying to munch on his French toast.
❝ Go on. ❞ Sohee leaned in forward to take a closer look at the attractive male who's facing her. For a while, she didn't let reluctance take over her as all she saw was Heeseung's angelic visuals that pleased her eyes with such a divine look.
❝ What kind of toothpaste do you even use to get such pretty teeth? ❞ Scoffing, the boy chuckled at her goofy question which he'd always gotten from other people before. ❝ Please, you're scared to ask that all along? ❞ What Sohee intended to ask was otherwise, yet she didn't have the full courage to ask it directly so why not change the topic?
❝ Nah, I'm not scared. I was just afraid that I might annoy you or something. ❞ Sohee shrugged her shoulders before planning to take a spoonful of cereal into her mouth.
❝ You would never annoy me though. ❞
Hence, his sweet words made her rapid heart a mess just by hearing as Sohee almost choked on her breakfast. Why was he messing with her emotions when Sohee herself couldn't reprimand her heart to stay still whenever his generous words would make a move?
❝ Y-Yea, you wouldn't for me either. Anyways...❞ Hee lifted his gaze upwards and met his eyes with Sohee who's acting all flustered again. Was it because of what he said earlier? There wasn't a single lie detected in what he said though.
❝ What you said that night was just a joke, right? ❞
No, it wasn't just a joke.
❝ Yes, of course. ❞ Heeseung wished that he could share the truth with her. But he couldn't blame himself for behaving this way when his insecurity existed. He couldn't just force someone to like him, who's a merciless monster, back.
Sohee must've been already fearing him with the fact that she's destined to be a mythical creature's soulmate by fate's plans.
Little did Heeseung know, the girl's mind was a lot more different from his perspective.
