Chapter 9
That's Why I Love You
It’s raining suddenly. I wished Hae would be fine on his way towards our house. I didn’t know how long I stood there until the rain falling dawn hard. I ran towards the door and opened it slowly. It’s not locked, I wonder why. But, maybe Kangin or Yesung had come earlier and knew that I was still out.
I thought I was right, there’s a light in the kitchen, I was sure someone must be doing something. I walked to the kitchen and saw someone stood near the stove. It’s easy to know who he’s.
“Kangin?” I called him while touching his shoulder.
He’s startled and something was fallen to the floor. A knifes. He stared at me in scared face. Did I do something bad? His eyes looked straight into my eyes. An angry look. But, he brought his head to his fingers. I realized his fingers were bleeding. I took them and put them into my mouth spontaneously I could feel he wanted to pull his hand back, but I still it until it wasn’t bleeding anymore.
No word came from his mouth, neither from me. We just look at each other and it stopped when he put that knifes back to the counter. I dare myself to ask him what exactly he was doing.
“Kangin, what were you doing just now?” I asked him carefully.
“Someone just came home and asked me what I was doing." He said with angry tone. “What time is it now? You should back home before we both back home from working. You knew that.”
“I’m sorry, Kangin.” I apologized. “I overslept. At my brother’s house.”
“Look I care!
He went out from the kitchen and I just stood there stared at the stove and some vegetables that he wanted to cook a moment ago. I felt little guilty for what I had done to him. Without thinking twice, I took that knifes and carrot then I sliced it. I decided to make soup for him. I knew, Yesung must be late, so I just made it for him.
After 30 minutes in this room, I finished with a bowl of soup and a bowl of rice that I prepared in the plastic tray and brought them to Kangin. He must be at his room.
I knocked the door. No answered, so I just waited him to open it. But, it took about ten minutes he opened it. He really looked so tired. My eyes caught his finger that awhile ago were bleeding because of me. He led me entered the room and put the food on the table beside our bed. It’s right. Now, it’s our bed, even though there’s a divider, trhee pillows. I knew Kangin had closed the door and back sitting on the bed, reading.
Kangin’s POV
I closed the door slowly and back to my bed, no, our bed now. I back to my activity, reading. I felt he walked closer to me. But, I ignored him. He had made my fingers wounded and had two bandages on them. How could I eat if my fingers on bandages? Stupid wife!
“I’m sorry, Hyung.” He spoke.
Still I ignored him. I didn’t like he called me by hyung. I’m not that old, right? I’m just 22. He’s so annoying.
“I’m so sorry for making your fingers bleeding. I just didn’t know what you were doing there. I thought… I…”
I cut him. “Thought what? Thought that I was singing in my heart there?”
I knew, I was too cruel to him for saying those words. But, he made me couldn’t use my fingers properly to write the next few days. He stopped sounding, but it removed by a sob. He’s sobbing. Why was he sobbing? I looked at him bowing his head and he’s staring at the floor while his two hands were trembling.
“Are you okay?” I asked.
He just nodded his head, not move even an inch.
“Why are you sobbing if you are okay?” I asked again, curiosity.
He lifted his head a little then looked at me. His eyes were red. Was I really that cruel to him?
“I’m sorry, Hyung.”
I didn’t know, why did he call me hyung again? He’s so annoying. He didn’t stop crying; instead he just blinked and blinked. Some tears fell down to his cheeks and some to his lips. His lips. I gulped. Those lips were just so sweet. I, I meant looked sweet. Why was I so nervous like this? But were them really tasted sweet? What was I thinking? I shook my head.
“Just sit and feed me. I’m starving now.” I ordered him to feed me. I didn’t know what’s going on with me.
“Are you sure?” he asked me with sobs tone.
I ignored him. I just patted the bed to him to sit next to me. He took the food and put it on his lap. Looked like he’s smiling while feeding me. Was he that happy due to I asked him to feed me? Too much questions on my brain because of him.
“I’m sorry…”
“Don’t call me hyung again,” I cut him. I didn’t even bother to look at him. I just read my book while chewing the food he feed me. It’s tasted good. “And stop saying sorry. You make me feel more guilty.”
“Oh, OK!”
“Good.”
He stooped feeding me when the bowl was empty. Then I drank my drink he gave me. I missed one thing. I didn’t look him ate anything. Was he not hungry?
“I want to take a shower, excuse me.” He bowed , bringing the empty bowls back to the kitchen.
Without waiting for my permission, he left me alone in this room. I was full. His cooking tasted good. I liked it. But, was he not hungry? Oh My God!! Looked like I care about him. No, he could eat anything he wanted if he hungry. Not like me. Stupid bandages!!
That's all I need was sleeping now. I put my book on the table beside the bed and positioning my body into a good position. Then, I closed my eyes slowly. I didn’t know what the next thing’s happened…
Nobody’s POV
It’s almost 09 p.m. when Leeteuk finished his bath. He back to his and Kangin’s room. He climbed the bed, seeing Kangin was sleeping peacefully. It’s still light; he hadn’t turned the lamp off yet. When he wanted to turn the lamp off, he stared at the other’s face. The lamp button placed on the wall beside Kangin’s head. He looked at him from his hair, his forehead, his nose, his cheeks, and the last was his lips.
It were lips he had kissed when they got married. The pastor forced them to kiss each other on the lips. Leeteuk had to obey the old man. Before they did it, Leeteuk looked at Yesung’s eyes. He gave him his plea eyes, but Yesung just smiling at him. He looked again at Kangin and his lips that made him became paler. How could he kiss the lips of a man he didn’t love even a little? After all, he had kissed him at it. Sweet, even though they just lips on lips.
The more he looked at him, the more he stared at the lips. Really, it felt better if he’s were Yesung he wanted to kiss. Once again, he had to admit that Kangin’s lips were sweet.
He shook his head to fade the memory. He had to sleep, thought he had slept at his dongsaeng’s house but it didn’t enough for him. So he clicked the button lamp and the light changed into dark it brought him to the dream. Besides, it’s raining out there and better to get a warm sleep. Yeah, even sleep next to Kangin’s warm body.
In the morning, he woke up late. Looked at the windows had opened and small sunlight touched the house, he just realized that he had to make breakfast or he got Kangin’s gripes in the morning.
He was about to rub his eyes when he felt a warm hand on his chest. Kangin’s hand on his chest. It’s imposible, nut it’s true. If Kangin’s sleeping now, then, who was the one opened the windows? Was that Yesung?
‘No, Yesung must be still at Siwon’s house. But, was that Kangin himself opened it and back again to sleep?’ he thought. He shook his head.
When he wanted to take the older’s hand, he cought something he made lastnight. Two bandages over the elder’s fingers. It’s his fault made the older startled and almost sliced his finger. Again, he stared at Kangin’s face and again, it brought him to that memory when he kissed him.
“Oh, you are awake, Teuk?” Someone spoke in the room.
Leeteuk turned his head; he shocked when he knew who was speaking.
“Umm... Yeah...” Leeteuk tried to say. “Umma, I… I was…”
“Yesung told me. You are scared when you sleep alone, right? He told you to sleep with Kangin, right?"
Leeteuk didn’t say anything, he took Kangin’s had and put it on his own hip. He watched his mother in law put some food on the table. She walked towards them, took a seat besides Kangin’s body and his hair. He looked a smile on her lips. “He’s scared with a thunder. I think he cuddled you because of that.” she told him.
Kangin made a little move when his mother his cheeks.
“Yesung must have told you that he’s, right? And you two could protect each other. You and Kangin no need worried even Yesung is not around. He’s so nice.”
Still, Leeteuk didn’t speak or trying to comment. He didn’t know Kangin was scared of thunder too. And maybe that’s why he cuddled him until this morning.
“Oh, you have to take a bath now and have your breakfast. I brought you one.” She pointed to the foods. “Kangin will wake up too late. He’s always like a child when the moment like this come.” She added.
“Ok, Umma.” Leeteuk obeyed.
Leeteuk took a quick bath. He went to his bedroom again and found angina was still sleeping. He didn’t see his mother in law there. ‘Where is she?’ he asked himself. He opened the wardrobe that placed two meters next to the bed. There’s shirt with three colors, blue-white-yellow; and ‘You and Me’ was written on white color in the middle. He took it and closed the wardrobe slowly.
On the other hand, Kangin felt something warm touched his face. Opening his eyes to look at it, but he caught a man stood in front of him with his back was facing him. When the man turned his body-who was trying to wear a shirt- he closed again his eyes spontaneously.
“Kangin, Leeteuk.” She peeked her head into the room. “Leeteuk, try to wake him up. I’ll wait you two at downstairs.
Leeteuk just nodded his head. He took a look at Kangin and turned his body gin to find a comb. He found it near the book Kangin read at that night. He took it and use it.
He was about to wake him up when his feet were slipped and almost fell on the floor, when and arm saved him. Kangin hugged him with his left arm around Leeteuk’s shoulder and the other hand was holding the bed sheet. Kangin looked into Leeteuk’s eyes and didn’t realize if the hold of his hand became weak.
In the end, he and leeteuk fell down. Kangin was on top of him. Bad position for him. He felt a pair of lips was pressing on his. When he opened his eyes, he was shocked. They were kissing again. Kangin’s body pressed his. He’s too weight.
“Kangin…” he tried to speak on their kiss.
Kangin just held his position without moving a little bit. He’s too shocked too. It’s too weird. He could feel a hot breath let out from Leeteuk’s mouth. It became worst when Leeteuk said his name. That’s time Leeteuk opened his mouth and Kangin slipped his bottom lips into the other’s.
Staring at each other, Kangin felt something weird inside his heart. ‘He’s really beautiful, especially his eyes.’ He thought.
Leeteuk close his eyes, feeling his heart was beating faster when Kangin moved a little in his lips. He depended his kiss to Leeteuk it’s sending an uncontrolled feeling. He had to stop this. But his body rejected it. The kiss became a passionate hiss.
They broke the kiss and Kangin pulled his head back when some steps were heard through the room. He tried to stand and found his mother stood in the door way. She smiled at him and was about to ask where’s Leeteuk, but Leeteuk stood right away.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
“Oh, umm… Umma, I was searching my comb that was left here yesterday, when Kangin borrowed it.” Leeteuk replied with small smile. He rose his hand, showing the comb and combing his hair.
“Oh, okay.” She said. She wanted to pick the food she brought from the kitchen awhile ago, because it wasn’t touched by Leeteuk, so it must have been cold. “Take a bath, Kangin. You are so smelly, you know." She giggled.
His mother didn’t notice about their weird behavior moment ago. She also didn’t notice there’s saliva on their lips from that kiss. Even the two of them. Leeteuk bowed his head. It’s so embarrassing to know the other was staring at him. He didn’t know what to do. He wanted Kangin to say something.
“I’m sorry for kissing you. Just forget it.” Kangin finally asked him.
He looked up at Kangin with stupid face. “No, it’s not you fault. It’s an accident. Let’s forget it.” He nodded his head eagerly. ‘Stupid!’ he cursed himself.
It would be a long day for both of them. Yesung hadn’t come yet. Sure. It would be more that a long day and became more bored day he ever had.¬¬¬
