A day with you Chap. 34
Alex Who?
“alex, I need to go back to seoul this morning. I’ve got something to do. Just stay here at uncle minho’s with jae joong. You both
need to supervise the construction.” Jonghyun said to alex. They are now in the receiving area with the whole family. Their 3rd
uncle and his family is not coming home till the day after tomorrow. “you’ll meet the rest of the family soon, just do this for me
okay princess?” jonghyun continued. “yah! It’s the first time since you had a girlfriend that you call me princess again.” Alex
teased. The relatives looked at jonghyun now. He is feeling a bit shy now. “why did you have to bring that up?” jonghyun whispered
to alex. She whispered back, “well its pay back, You said jae here is my boyfriend, when he is not.” “yet” jonghyun said and winked
at alex. Alex paused with that simple word. ~yet~.
Jae Joong POV
I woke up with the sound coming from down stairs. I got up and look what’s going on. It’s alex, then I gaze on the clock hanging on
the wall, it’s just 4 am. Why is she up this early. “what are you doing?” I asked her. She jumped in shocked hearing me. “ah! Oh my
lord! You’ve scared me.(in English)” she placed her hand in her heart. I can’t help but to laugh at her reaction. “you tend to speak
English when you’re having adrenalin rush” I . “haha! Very funny. Why are you up so early?” she asked me. “well I can hear
your little gig here.” I pointed at the casseroles. We are whispering to wake no one.
“well, I got hungry, the maids are sleeping, no left over’s so I’m going to cook.” She replied without glancing at me. I sat there
watching her every move, she is so independent, compared to my sister. Seo never cook, even when she lives at NY she always have
take outs or dine with alex. “what?” she ask while cutting the carrots. “nothing, I’m just amaze seeing a girl cook.” I replied. “yah,
seo doesn’t want to cook. I always cook for her whenever I visit her apartment.” Alex cheerfully told me. “a bratty princess
indeed!” I rolled my eyes. She laughed. “ouch!” she hissed. I immediately walk to her side and grab her hand and put it into my lips.
“yah! Are you a vampire. Stop it. It’s contaminated. Blood from wounds are contaminated you know.” She blushed with my action.
Alex POV
“alright, I’m gonna get some band aid. Okay?” jae joong didn’t wait for my answer. He rushed upstairs. Tsk, that guy really is
something. How can he be that caring to me. Tsk. In a matter of seconds he is infront of me again. Taking my hand and put some
band aid to my cut. “you should be careful using knife.” He said with a worried tone. “don’t worry jae joong ssi, it’s just a finger, I
can still draw.” I mock him. He sigh but smiled. “you scared me” he said. What? Why? I want to asked him that but I think it will
gonna be awkward.
“tada! Breakfast! Come on dig in!” alex said. Jae joong sit beside her. “hmmnn smells delicious.” Jae uttered. Alex is being nervous
having jae seated beside her. She move and inch to her left. Jae didn’t notice it. Jae began to eat. “wow! Daebak! How did you learn
to cook like this.?” Jae asked. “well, in NY we don’t have a maid. Dad wants us to be reliable. So oppa and I just learn how to do it.”
Alex said. “and their mom is a good cook too.” Uncle minho said walking towards jae and alex. “oh! Uncle, you woke up early. Did I
wake you up?” alex said. “no dear, this is my usual waking time. And I’ll accompany you two on the site.” Uncle said.
“you should wake your brother, he said he needs to be in seoul early.” Uncle minho said to alex. Alex who is now fished cooking just
nod. and went to his brother’s room. Jae and uncle minho is left in the dining room. “so, jonghyun said you’re alex’s boss? How is she
at work?” uncle minho asked jae. “ah, deh sir! She is very good! the talent she has is unbelievable.” Jae replied. “ah deh! She got
that from her mom, min ji is really like her. Same personality, same talents.. ahh.. I miss my sister so much” uncle minho said
looking at the picture on the display. “that is her mother, too bad alex had to see her on photos only. They would be really close if
she’s still here.” Uncle minho continued.
Jae Joong POV
“ah Jae joong ssi, how long have you been in a relationship with our alex?” uncle minho suddenly asked. I caught off guard. “ah, not
too long sir.”I replied. I’m still looking at the portrait not too far from me. Alex really resembles her mom. “you too look good
together. As far as I can see, she is happy with you.” Uncle minho said. I suddenly felt guilty, we are just pretending now. “ah deh!
Sir” I replied. “please don call me sir anymore, you’re part of the family so call me uncle minho too.” “deh uncle minho” we laughed.
Wonder if their father is this comfortable to talk with too.
Alex , Uncle minho and Jae went to the site by 7 am. The workers are already there waiting for them, jae explain the plan to the
main engineer. The construction is now starting. “alex dear, why are you here, go the shaded part, you might get heat , today
is so hot.” Uncle minho said to alex. “kwenchana uncle, I just have to make adjustments here.” Alex replied. *ring ring* uncle
minho’s phone is ringing. “jakaman, I’ll have to take this” uncle minho said and her moves away. “ah! Its hot!” alex burst while wiping
her sweat. “are you okay?” jae came up to her. “ah deh! Here, I’ve finished the alteration.” Alex said. “ah great, I’ll just give it to
Engr. Go” jae said. But when he is about to walk alex fainted, jae quickly catch her before she hits the ground.
Jae Joong POV
“alex, alex! Are you okay?” I asked her so worriedly. She murmured. “deh,” with a weak voice. “what happen?” uncle minho now
rushing to us. “she fainted, it must be the heat” I replied. “I’m okay” she tried to replied with a broken voice. “its not heat
she is still conscious. Just get her to rest in the car. She’ll gonna be fine. You two go rest for a while. Weather in busan is really
unpredictable.” Uncle minho said. I obliged. I carry alex now. “hey, I can walk” she said almost like a whisper now. “no, you cant” I
said angrily .
Alex POV
Why is he angry at me now? I pouted. Tears are fiiling my eyes now. Why am I felt like crying, my body is too weak to lift my hands
to wipe my tears whose falling now. Jae noticed it, he stopped walking. “why are you crying?” he looks at me with a worried stare
now. Now you’re asking. “why are you angry with me?” I asked like a child now. He smile, showing his beautiful dimples. “sorry, you
just got me worried.” I replied then continued walking. “can you stand up?” He asked. I nod and he let me down. My knees are a bit
weak so I wobbled. He grabs my waist, I was startled. “oh! Be careful, tsk you said you can stand up.” He said teasing. His smile is
doing it to me. I’m trembling because of him.
He sit me inside the car and went to the other side for him to seat. “come just rest your head on my chest.” Jae said. “what?” I
said. I swear if I’m not feeble my voice will be everywhere. He shook his head and pulls me. “just go with it okay?” he said brushing
is free hand my hair while the other one is fixated on my waist. I gave up! I closed my eyes but I don’t want to sleep. Being here
like this with him gives an unexplainable happiness in my heart.
Jae Joong POV
I peeked on her, she is now sleeping. I took my phone and opened the camera apps. Then I took a picture of us. “we look good
together.” I whispered. I kissed her hair now. “being like this with you right now is the happiest thing that happened to me. I wish
we could stay like this forever. Together.” I said looking at her. But then I remember her situation, my smiling face disappeared.
“what an irony, I’ve met you first but yoochun is the one you’re engaged with.” I scoff. “I think, no, I am in love with you alex” I
said knowing she is unconscious now. “I would give everything just to have a day with you like this again” I said and kissed her hair
again.
