Chapter 18
One year of TaeminThe next day I woke up with a substantial headache from the drinking. I looked over at Jen who was nowhere to be found. Where was she? What time was it? I looked at my clock, it was 7.48am.
I decided to drag myself to the bathroom and then made my way around the house to try and find her. It wasn’t hard, all I had to do was follow the smell of cooking coming from the kitchen.
I could hear the music being played, was that Exo? Then I could hear the singing. Man, she was bad at singing. Like bad. I couldn’t help the smile forming on my face as I tip toed down the hall and peeked into the kitchen.

‘I love you’ I told her.
‘Despite my terrible singing ability?’ she pouted cutely.
‘I definitely don’t love you because you can sing’ the laughing fit came back.
She gave me a shove. ‘Ok, it’s not really that bad’ she pouted putting pancakes onto a plate.
‘Oh, my love’ I sighed ‘It really is that bad’ I couldn’t keep my face straight.

‘I was going to bring you these in bed, but you’re up now. Maybe you’ll love my cooking more than my singing’.
