Come back of a friend
Happily ever after...
~ Minho's POV ~
Since we confessed our love to each other, our routine was....better.
I mean, the atmosphere at home was totally different! More relaxed and when I came back from work, I really felt at home.
-Minhoooo! I heard Dara yelling
I left the living room and went to the hall.
-Hmm?
-Honey, we have a new family member!
My eyes grew wide and I exclaimed:
-You're pregnant???
-No! Ahaha! She laughed
-So?
-It's him!
She held a plastic bag full of water in front of my face. Inside, there was a goldfish swimming lazily.
I sighed (of relief). Dara was maybe 27 but she had the mind of an 8 years old girl sometimes. But in a way I envied her young mind. I mean I was 21 and I felt like I was an old grandpa in my way of thinking!
-Minho? Are you listening to me?
-Hmm? Yes of course honey! I faked a smile
-Soooo...What's his name?
-Hmm...Cookie?
-It's Bubble gum. She answered with a 'I knew you weren't listening' look
-Of course!! I replied
She chuckled and pecked my lips sweetly.
Riiiiiiiiinnng,
-Phone! Dara chirped and gave me the fish to pick up the call.
-Welcome home Bubble Gum. I whispered
-Seven! It's been a while! How are you? Dara squealed gleefully
-Seven? I murmured to myself
-Now? But...Okay! I really want to see you too! Ok! Hmm see you!
She hung up and came back to me.
-Honey, a friend of mine will come tonight! He comes back from USA and it would be super great if we could accommodate him for the night!
-Hmm...no problem. But seriously, what the hell with his name, nickname or whatever else?
-Ahaha! Don't mind this, just a little thing from our university years! His real name is Dong Wook! She replied
-I see. So you know him since a long time...
-Hmm kinda!
~ Dara's POV ~
I was so impatient to see Seven again! When the door bell rang I felt my heart bouncing in my chest, I didn't see him for four or five years!
As soon as I opened the door I jumped in his arms.
-Dong Wook!
-Dara! Long time no see! He beamed
-Yeah! Dong Wook, this is my husband Minho. Minho this is my friend Dong Wook.
-Husband? You're married?!
-Hmm! I nodded
-Nice to meet you Minho, please call me Seven, I'm not keen of my real name. Dong Wook said
-Nice to meet you Seven. Minho answered politely
-Thank you so much to accommodate me tonight, you really help me.
-You're welcome! Minho and I said at the same time
We looked at each other and laughed.
-You're just in time for the dinner! I giggled
Seven-ah let his luggage in the hall and we went to the kitchen.
~ Minho's POV ~
Dara and Seven-ssi were really close. I barely said two words during the dinner, they were talking so much!! I wanted to pout and to sulk like a child but I listened absently the conversation with dead eyes.
When the dinner ended I thought they would stop talking but they continued in the living room! I couldn't stand it anymore! I stood up and apologized to them, I had some business to finish. They smiled and nodded and then talked again!!
I took a quick shower and then went to bed. I didn't want to sleep, I just stared at the ceiling blankly.
When a long time later I felt Dara laying next to me under the bed sheets I turned my back to her and faced my alarm clock.
-Minnie...you're angry?
-Why would I be angry? I spat
-Because I was too happy to see Seven-ah again?
-I'm not angry, just a little fed up.
-Oh my poor baby! She giggled
I grumbled, not liking to be called « baby ».
-What does your friend do?
-He works in an entertainment company called YG.
-He's an idol?
-No, he works in trainees recruitment if I remember well.
-I see...
-Don't worry I'm your wife, I won't cheat on you. Dara whispered
-Pff, I know that. Moreover I'm so good looking, you can't leave for another man. I joked
-Tsss...so arrogant, she replied with a smile
We fell asleep soon after that.
The following morning, when I woke up Dara was already awake, eating breakfast in the kitchen.
-Hello honey! She beamed
-Hi. Dong Wook's sleepin'?
-Nope, he left an hour ago!
-I see...I mumbled and sat in front of her to eat my breakfast.
-Honey, you're spreading coffee powder on your bread...Dara noticed
-Oops...not really awake.
Dara laughed slightly and finished her coffee.
-Oh by the way, could you buy food for Bubblegum after work?
-Yeah...poor goldfish without me he would die of starvation. I sighed
-Oh...I gave it bread crumbs, it ate them so it won't die of starvation.
-I see. Well, I gotta go to work! See you tonight!
I left home with a slight smile on my lips.
I went to my office and my secretary gave me a note. It was from one of my colleague.
“Minho-ssi, please meet me in my office, we have to talk about a file. Sulli.”
I shrugged and went to her office.
-Hi! Please come in! She said when she saw me in the entrance of her door.
I smiled and sat in front of her desk.
-So what's the problem? I asked
-Take a look at that.
-Hmm....we will settle that. I replied
~ Dara's POV ~
-Dara!! Dara! You're there! Ju Ri, my friend and colleague exclaimed
-Yes, do you need something? I asked
-Not really, take that! She grinned and gave me a light beige enveloppe
-What is it?
-Open it!
She seemed excited so I opened it and shrieked:
-You're getting married?! OMO Congratulations!
I hugged her and she asked:
-Will you come?
-Of course! I can't wait!!
-Of course, you can bring your husband!
-Hmm count on me! I beamed
-You never intoduced him to us! I crave to see him!
-You witch! You want to steal him from me!! I joked
-No! She chuckled
We chatted until we reached our floor and went to work.
During we talked animatedly about her wedding with Hye Su.
-When will it take place? I asked
-Next year! When the weather will be warmer! Ju Ri answered
-Yes it's better!
-By the way, who's your husband? Hye Su asked
-He is a customer of our company. He came here to ask for our services and when we finished, he asked me if I wanted to have a dinner with him, so I accepted and we became closer and closer before starting a real relationship.
-But how long do you know him? I asked
-Around one year.
-And you complained because I didn't introduce my husband to you! I scoffed
-It's not as if I didn't tell you I had a boyfriend! Ju Ri exclaimed
-Yeah...
-Pff...why am I the only on who's alone? Hye Su pouted
-Poor you, you have have to bear our conversations about wedding, husbands, boyfriends etc....Oh, I have an idea! I have a great friend who just came back from America, I could introduce him to you! He is handsome and gentle and nice and intelligent!
Hye Su looked uncertain.
