4.2. Picture of You

 

After the after glow sets,

I’m going towards you,

Following the lights which turn on one by one

 

I’ll embrace you,

Before the cold wind makes your shoulders flinch

 

I love you,

The foolish you,

You’re so precious to me

 

As much as the sun that rises above you,

I’ll keep you safe as much as you’ve waited for me, with this glaring heart,

All the dreams I’ve prayed for,

They’re going towards you with my sincere scent

 

I hope that my wishes of smiling next to you every new morning,

Will be able to come true

 

I’ll wait for you,

I’ll never let go of your hands,

Even if it’s only tears,

I’ll wipe them away for you

 

Although we are not able to see the end,

No matter how bumpy our road is,

I’ll promise you, please be mine

 

As much as the sun that rises above you,

I’ll keep you safe as much as you’ve waited for me, with this glaring heart,

All the dreams I’ve prayed for,

They’re going towards you with my sincere scent,

More than the air I breathe,

 

‘I love you’ ‘You’re the only one’,

I want to yell those words out into the sky

I love you, my heart which feels like bursting is calling out to you

 

No matter how many times they find us,

No matter if we can’t breathe,

 

Like those invisible flower-like smiles,

Which shine just like the stars,

I’ll keep you safe beautifully

 

As much as the sun that rises above you,

I’ll keep you safe as much as you’ve waited for me, with this glaring heart,

I love you, I love you,

You’re the most beautiful in this world,

This dream-like heart,

More than the air I breathe

I watched as Jaejoong-hyung pondered around the kitchen, busying himself with the various ingredients splayed all over. He was humming a happy tune, clad in a cute pink apron, white tank top, and grey shorts. Like short shorts. Is he even wearing anything inside that thing? Or are those grey shorts actually boxers? I am worried if Yunho-hyung would argue with him again over the 'public display of too much skin'. But said hyung isn't going to return till night, so. 

 

I hear the sound of water boiling and Jaejoong-hyung cursed as he rushed over to fix the fire. I blinked.

 

Where is Minnie? I turned from my bar stool towards the living room. "Minnie?" 

 

Nobody replied me. I thought he was playing video game, sat in front of the wide television screen, but the game was paused and the magnae nowhere to be seen. The suspenseful music flowed as I scrutinizingly scanned the apartment. "Changmin-ah!" 

 

Silence. 

 

Oh my god! Was he kidnapped?! By a ghost possibly! A spark of panic raced through me, my hands grasped the edge of my seat. "Shim Changmin!" 

 

"Yeah?" A light haired head popped out from a room down the hallway. I exhaled in relief, "Yah! Where were you?! You were there and then you suddenly weren't so I thought you got abducted by ghosts or something!" 

 

Changmin looks at me as if I grew two heads as he walks over. "Ghosts? It's still midday! I was in the bathroom." 

 

I know its midday but who says they only come out at night! Besides, 5pm is hardly midday! I puffed my chest and crossed my arms, "What were you doing in the bathroom!" 

 

And the magnae raised his eyebrows at me. What? It's a normal question!

 

"Humanistic... Stuff? What else can you do?" I blushed. Right. 

 

He rolled his eyes at me and sat down on the carpet, video game control in hand. Rude brat. I didn't roll my eyes when he slept talk yesterday night! 

 

~Last Night~

 

"Hyung..." I hear the sleeping magnae call out, and turned away from my laptop screen to his closed eyes. "Yeah?" 

 

"Do you know what you could use to eat with?" He murmured. 

 

What is he trying to say? "Huh?"

 

"Other than spoon, what else could you eat with?"

 

 .... "What?"

 

He didn't respond me, and after a while, I figured he was back asleep, so I blinked and returned to what I was doing. 

 

"Stupid, you could use chopsticks!" 

 

I turned again to hear him snoring, body splayed eagle on the bed. 

 

So what is his point?! 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

I puffed and ed out my tongue at him, knowing he couldn't see. 

 

"Junsu-ah!" Ah, Jaejoong-hyung is calling me. I rotated the bar stool to face the open kitchen, waiting for him to throw his orders. As expected, hyung went on without me replying him. "Junsu-ah! Could you call Chunnie and ask what time they will be back? I want the soup to be hot when they get back!" 

 

Oh~ call Chunnie to ask when Yunho-hyung is going to be back. "Okay!" 

 

With that, I jumped off the stool and trotted to my room for my mobile phone. 

 

Kono machi de~ meguri atta~

Ima mo wasurenaiyo anohikara...

 

I waited patiently, humming along to ‘Proud’ playing from the other side of the line. The song suddenly stopped. "Hello?" 

 

"Chunnie~~~~" I squealed, dragging the last syllable of his name out. He chuckled, overflowing with greasiness, "Hey Junsu. What's up?" 

 

"Jaejoong-hyung wants to know when you guys are gonna be back! He's cooking soup." I sm
