Only FaultsThe nauseous feeling pitting in my abdomen doesn’t get better throughout the week. Ginger tea doesn’t sooth it either. Sitting at home, in bed, with some random sappy drama replay playing though does help the mental side of this morning sickness though. Who knew how mentally exhausting to need to vomit almost every morning?
‘Kyung Mi-ah, where do you put your vegetable peeler?’ A male voice calls from my kitchen.
‘It’s in the third draw,’ I answer back, as I got up from bed. I shouldn’t be sitting in bed if there’s a guest in my house, even if they insist on it.
‘Ah here it is,’ He murmured to himself, taking out the orange kitchen tool. ‘What are you doing up, thought I told you to stay in bed,’ he raised his head and frowned slightly.
‘I can’t just stay in bed while you do my house work,’ I replied to him, watching him peel a potato for our lunch.
‘You can if you don’t feel well,’ He replied back in a ‘matter of fact’ tone.
‘It’s nothing, just a little morning sickness Minhyun. Seriously, you should be at work or something.’
‘Normal morning sickness doesn’t leave you crippled in bed Kyung Mi,’ He quickly retorted, his frown becoming deeper.
I know, I know. What exactly is Minhyun doing here? Well It’s not like I told him about my morning sickness – like I said, it’s nothing that I can’t take care of on my own. He went by my office to give me a couple things, but someone there (must be Minki or Sungwoon) told him that I was throwing up the other day. Then I heard the knocking on my door, and he ordered me to stay in bed.
‘You’re a lot bossier now than you were before,’ I laughed, as I insisted on him passing the knife and chopping board to me so I could at least cut the potato.
Reluctantly he handed the two items, ‘ Watch your fingers,’ he warned as if I was a child only learning how to cook.
Sometimes it’s just nice to talk about random things – music, travels, movies. Sometimes it’s nice to just not talk about our lives – baby and divorce. Sometimes it’s nice to be reminded that he used to be my best friend a
