Her Smile Takes My Breath Away.
Forever
"I'm home!" You were usually extremely exhausted by the time you got home from work so for you to smile brightly while getting a drink from the kitchen was quite the surprise for Chanyeol.
"Woah, did you win the lottery or something noona?" Chanyeol took a giant bite out of his chocolate muffin then gulped his milk as he stared at you with wide eyes.
"Not exactly, but close enough." You probably looked absolutely ridiculous right now but that didn't matter, Suho just asked you out on a date after class tomorrow.
"Er raise?" Chanyeol spoke with his mouth full, crumbs covering his lips. You chuckled and grabbed a Kleenex from your bag, wiping his lips off before answering him.
"No, you'll never be able to guess Channie." You took the muffin from his hands and stole a bite. "Mmm, delicious."
"Hey! Get your own muffin." Chanyeol took the rest of the muffin back and finished it all in one bite, glaring at you in the process.
"Haha, calm down Channie you're going to choke. There's plenty more where that came from, you can eat the chocolate one I was saving if you want."
"Rearry??"
"Yes, now please stop talking with your mouth full, it's disgusting."
"Oh, oops." Chanyeol put his hands over his mouth, causing you to laugh. Your baby brother is too adorable for his own good.
"Mmm anyways, I've got homework to do; I'll see you when omma and appa get back for dinner." Chanyeol took another gulp of his milk and swallowed his muffin quickly at this.
"But you didn't tell me what made you so happy yet!"
Taking your water with you, you headed upstairs while waving at Chanyeol. "I'll tell you next time." With that you got into your room and closed the door.
Chanyeol shrugged his shoulders after you left and went through the pantry for the chocolate muffin you were talking about just now.
"Yes!"
With your earphones in and notebooks spread out across your table, you tried your best to concentrate only for your mind to wonder off to thoughts about Suho. After failing to accomplish anything, you took out your sketchbook instead and flipped to the page where a rough sketch of Suho was situated. You had tried drawing him back when you first bumped into him but it just didn’t turn out right no matter how hard you tried. Now that you’ve seen him again and actually know him a little more though, you took another stab at it. Remembering the shy smile on his face, you stopped trying to get the “perfect” sketch of Suho and went with the awkward male you were talking to an hour ago. It took you less than half the usual amount of time it takes for you to do a sketch to complete Suho’s. You put in the finishing touches by shading in his hair then signed your name and date at the bottom.
“Noona! Dinner’s ready!” Finishing up the last of your calculus questions, you slammed your book shut and sprinted downstairs, you’re absolutely famished.
“Woah, slow down there honey, you’re going to run into something like that.” Your mother was placing a plate of dishes down when you came rushing downstairs.
“Haha sorry omma, I’m just really hungry.” You took a seat in front of you mother and next to Chanyeol while your father’s seat was empty.
“Alright guys, let’s eat.” Chanyeol picked up his chopsticks and dug in but you couldn’t help but wonder where your father is.
“Omma, where’s appa?”
“His colleague was supposed to attend a meeting but he got sick last minute so your father had to fill in for him. It’s no big deal; he’ll be back in three days. Why?”
“Oh, okay then, never mind.” You let out a deep sigh and took a small bite out of your rice; you didn’t feel so hungry anymore. It’s not like it was the first time your father chose work over you. There is an art exhibit in town and the two of you were supposed to go together two days from now but now your plans have gone down the drain. There’s no way you’d be able to get there then to work in time while taking the bus, he was supposed to drive you.
After dinner, Chanyeol and you excused yourselves and headed upstairs to your rooms. As you made your way upstairs you felt a small nudge on your arm, Chanyeol must noticed how down you looked.
“What’s wrong noona?”
“Remember the art exhibit I told you about?” Chanyeol put his finger against his lips and thought for a moment before letting out a high “ahh”. “That’s in two days isn’t in?!”
“Yeah, but I don’t think I’ll be going anymore.”
“Aww it’s okay noona, cheer up! You never know, maybe you’ll get lucky and find a classmate to drive you there or something.” You sighed again but put a smile on your face anyways, it’s the least you could do for your younger brother.
“Maybe…”
The sweet melody of DBKS’s Hug sounded across your room, waking you up in the process. You rubbed your eyes groggily then turned off your alarm. Not forgetting about the promise you made Chanyeol the day before, you got ready quickly then went downstairs to make him omurice. Chanyeol reads way too many comics and watched quite a bit of anime, he’d be ecstatic once he finds out you made him that. Just as you finished setting the two omurices onto yours and Chanyeol’s plate, Chanyeol came hopping down the stairs in his uniform.
“Ahh that smells so good noona!” He fixed his tie nicely then took a seat in front of his plate.
“Do you want orange juice or milk? Noona will help you this time since you look like you haven’t eaten in days haha.”
“Orange juice please.” You chuckled as Chanyeol devoured his omurice while you got his juice.
“Here, you’re going to choke!”
“Thranks roora.” Chanyeol took the juice from your hands and took a huge mouthful of it. You shook your head at the giant baby in front of you then began to dig in as well.
Once the two of you finished eating, you threw on your winter coats and headed for school. Your hands were in your pockets and you couldn’t help but frown, the two tickets you bought are in there.
“Noona, noona, noona!” Chanyeol waved his hands in front of you causing you to lose your balance and take a step backwards.
“Huh? What?”
“We’re there. I’m going now okay? Don’t daydream when crossing the street; some drivers don’t watch where they’re going!”
“Haha okay, I’ll make sure to be careful and not daydream again Channie. Have fun at school, I’ll see you when I get home tonight.”
“You’re coming home late again? Do you have work?”
“No, noona has plans, I’ll tell you about it tonight.” You waved Chanyeol goodbye and made your way to class. Since you left the house early today, you took your time and enjoyed your surroundings as you walked, completely unaware of the shy male captivated by your beautiful smile.
I apologize for leaving this story in the back burner, I didn't realize I didn't save the chapters I wrote on my laptop when I went to Yonsei >
