Chapter 28
The Stray CatNext day.
Chaeyoung woke up early and started cooking breakfast. She slowly took each step like how she was taught by Seung Cheol this past few days. Few minutes later, Chaeyoung was still chopping up her ingredients when she noticed Seung Cheol got out of his room and turned to greet him.
"Good Morni---" She stopped as she accidentally cut her self "Ow." Chaeyoung whimpered
Alarmed Seung Cheol rushed towards Chaeyoung and her blood to prevent it from bleeding. Chaeyoung got suprised and was flustered but she held her ground. Then Seung Cheol searched around for the first aid kit and treated Chaeyoung's wound. Seung Cheol released a deep breath of relieve
"Are you fine? How many times have I told you to be careful with knives right? Does it still hurts?" Seung Cheol asked so fast that Chaeyoung wasn't able to answer any of his questions still holding her wounded hand.
"I-I-I-I'm fine. You w-w-w-worry t-t-too much." Chaeyoung stutters and blushes
Seung Cheol sighs then investigates again Chaeyoung's hand "Are you sure?" he asks again
Chaeyoung nods in assurance
"Why didn't you wake me up to help?" Seung Cheol asked
"I just want to suprise you guys too. And you guys are really tired from what you guys did yesterday." Chaeyoung pointed out
"Still. You can just say a word and I'll come running." Seung Cheol said
"I'll take you up on that. But not now." Chaeyoung said as she smiles at Seung Cheol and she started cooking bit by bit.
Oil splatters everywhere and scared Chaeyoung but she steeled her self and was about to dive in the storm of hot oil. But Seung Cheol stopped her and made her wear cat paw-like oven mitts to protect her from the oil. Chaeyoung looked at her hands then looked at Seung Cheol like she's asking about the the mitts.
"Hmm?" Seung Cheol as he noticed she was looking "That's my gift for you." he added
"Uhmm." Chaeyoung looked at her hands "Thanks.?" she said unsurely
Then Seung Cheol pointed her back to her cooking using his lips. Seeing this makes her blush again.
'Do he want me to kiss him?' Chaeyoung asked herself
Seung Cheol pointed again using his lips again. Chaeyoung blushes more as she thinks that he really wants her to kiss him in return. She gulped hard and held her wits with her as she slowly moves closer and closer to Seung Cheol. But he stopped her and turned her around and pointed out, with his finger this time at the smoking pan.
"Waaaaaaaah." Chaeyoung screamed out and rushed to her pan, unaware that the her mitts fell off and she was just to grabbed the hot pan with her bare hands. When suddenly Seung Cheol pulled Chaeyoung making her fall out of balance but Seung Cheol catching her her back.
"Aiiishh!" Seung Cheol grunted "Why were you gonna get that pan without any mitten? Are you really trying to get yourself hurt?" he added
Chaeyoung looks at Seung Cheol's face up close and blushes then she stood up and shakes her head.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Chaeyoung apologizes
Seung Cheol turned off the stove and cleared off the pan then he examined Chaeyoung's hands.
"Are you hurt?" Seung Cheol asks raising his voice a bit.
"No." Chaeyoung answered "I'm sorry." she whispered holding back her tears
"It's fine. Don't cry now. It's just that I don't want something bad happen you girls ever again. Sorry, if I'm being so over-protective." Seung Cheol
