Seven
DivorceFor a good minute, Minho and Sulli stared at each other. It seemed like through their eyes, it was the words that they want to say but can't come out
"You look lovely by the way" Minho broke the eye contact, giving her the bouquet of fragrant flowers to which Sulli whole heartedly accepted
"You don't look quite bad yourself" Sulli giggles, taking a smell of the flowers. Minho chuckles, hearing Sulli's sweet giggle brings thousands of different feelings to Minho, how he miss hearing it
"There you are, I've been looking for you! Oh! Minho? You're here too?" Victoria said, not really surprised to see Minho
"Noona, it's been a while. How have you been?" Minho asked, flashing that sweet smile of his
"I've been wonderful. How about you, Minho? You look like you have lost weight" Victoria answered, Minho shy touched his face as he was grinning
"Have I? Hmm, I don't seem to notice. Maybe I'm too busy with work that I don't notice" Minho responded, chuckling lightly
"Sulli Baby, why aren't you bringing Minho to a table? Aigoo, what kind of restaurant owner are you? Don't even bother to make your guest sit" Victoria half jokingly said to Sulli, making her smile embarrassingly
"Come Minho, sit with me. I'm actually quite lonely. Sulli is too busy running around the restaurant all night" Victoria said, pulling Minho to her table as Sulli silently follows from behind
While Victoria and Minho took their seats and started to immerse into a conversation, Sulli left the bouquet on top of the table and went to the kitchen and asked the chef to prepare a plate of food and serve it
"Tell me what you think" Sulli said as soon as the food arrived. Minho took a bite and exploded with emotions
"Perfection" Minho complimented, continuing to eat
[FlashBack]
"What's cooking, good looking?" Minho wraps his arms around Sulli's waist as he placed his chin on her shoulder, looking over and seeing what's Sulli has been cooking
"Just experimenting" Sulli replies teasingly as she stirred the spoon around. While she was doing so, Minho snuggles into Sulli's neck giving small kisses all over her neck down to her shoulder
"Yah, if you keep doing that I won't be able to finish this. Please get out" Sulli giggles lightly. Minho removed
his arms around her waist but before leaving the kitchen he quickly kissed her on the lips
"Yah! Aish" Sulli says, pretending to be annoyed but in reality, she's loving it. Before Sulli could do anything to Minho, he dashed out of the kitchen laughing
As Sulli was done with her cooking, she called Minho over to let him have a taste of it. Sulli was nervous about his opinion, what if it was too salty? Tasteless?
"You cooked this?" Minho asked, Sulli nervously nods. Minho took another bite and was smiling now, relieving Sulli a bit
"What do you think of it?" Sulli asked, looking at Minho intently
"Amazing. The best." Minho responds as he was smiling at Sulli
"Really?! You're not kidding, right?" Sulli asks for reassurance, Minho chuckles
"I'm telling the truth, it's really amazing. Why don't you have a taste yourself?" Minho says chuckling as he brought the spoon closer to Sulli's mouth, letting her have a taste
"You're lying to me! It's a bit too salty" Sulli said, hitting Minho on the shoulder causing him to just laugh
"Maybe a little bit but hey, it's not that bad. Why are you feeling so hurt about it? It's just an experiment right? You can always change it" Minho said, laughing in between
"Okay, okay. I guess you're right" Sulli said, sighing a little
[end of flashback]
"You're not lying, are you?" Sulli asks, Minho stops eating and looks at Sulli, laughing almost
"This is really delicious. I'm serious about it. It's quite similar to the one that you have cooked before" Minho says sincerely
"She has cooked this before?" Victoria interrupted the two, Minho looks at Sulli if he can continue to which she nodded
"Yeah, she has. It's quite funny, she was a bit hurt when I told her it was good but actually it was quite salty" Minho explained chuckling,
"Quite? You said before it was a little salty! Now you're saying it's quite salty?! Change of words huh?" Sulli said in shock, Minho laughs, nonchalantly shrugging
"Unnie, it's better now right?" Sulli asked Victoria to which she nods as she was laughing. Minho leaned over to Victoria and whispered something, it somehow annoyed Sulli
"What you whispering about? Are you guys talking about how awful my dish is? I should have known" Sulli raised her voice a bit, both Victoria and Minho looked at each other and laughed
"No dear, he just told me another thing about your cooking before" Victoria responded, laughing. Sulli looked at her confused, switching looks from Minho to Victoria
"It's nothing bad" Minho reassured Sulli, smiling. But she just rolled her eyes
As the night became late, the more customers left, leaving Minho, Sulli, and Victoria alone having a fun time of their own. It wasn't long after when Victoria decided to leave and call it night
"You're going to be alone with Minho now, make memories out of it. I know you've been dying to spend time with him" Victoria said as Sulli walked her out
"Take care unnie" Sulli bid goodbye as Victoria got into her car and drove away. Seconds after, Sulli walked back
"So it's just you and me" Minho started to speak as Sulli took her seat. It suddenly became awkward and quiet. It was like the first time Minho confessed his feelings for Sulli, awkward and quiet
"Yeah? Just you and me" Sulli said lowly, looking elsewhere. Minho sighs as he leaned back on his chair and stared at Sulli, having a good look on her
"It's been months, so how have you been since then?" Sulli broke the ice
"To tell you honestly, I've been miserable the first month or so but now, that's not the case anymore. I'm slowly getting better. How about you?" Minho responded, Sulli really didn't expect that answer, thoughts like 'he was miserable too?' 'He might have been suffering too'
"I've been fine, I guess. Coping you could say" Sulli said, Minho nods
"So how are you and Yuri? Going well?" Sulli asked, mumbling slightly. Minho didn't expect to be asked that question but he still answered it honestly
"I've lost contact with Yuri. I haven't talked to her or seen her. And I don't think I would want to see her anymore" Minho replies
"I see" Sulli could only say, somehow happy with the answer she got. With this night, a lot of questions were answered and even though it was just tonight, Minho and also Sulli felt genuinely happy
