“How can I do that?”

Minho mumbles.

Lucky that she wasn’t talking to me this morning.

Lucky that she sticks to how she was for the last few months.

Minho sighs.

“Why can’t you control yourself Minho?”

“What will she thinks about you?”

“Are you an animal?”

“Are you her master?”

“Is she your slave?”

“Why can’t you be a human?”

Minho palms his face.

He remembers his action last night.

He was going inside the bedroom when he slips.

Why did he slips?

He taps his fingers on the table.

“There is water.”

He exclaimed while snapping his fingers.

“It’s because of the water. If there is no water, I won’t slip. I will still control my throbbing desire for her if I stay in distance from her. So, it’s the water. It’s Sulli’s fault.”

He nods his head few times agreeing his excuse.

“But she was wiping it when you enter the room. You are the one who can’t handle your lust.”

His heart cried out in him.

He shakes his head.

“It’s not my fault. Why was it is a fault? She is my wife.”

Minho shuts his eyes when he mutters the word.

“Wife.”

“She is my wife.”

He whispers.

“My lawfully wedded wife.”

He let out a long sighs.

“She is my wife from the first day we got married. She still is my wife. Even after she cheats me with Taemin.”

“Taemin.”

Minho mouthed the name in irritates.

“Why Taemin.”

“Why it have to be Taemin?”

He sighs again.

“How can you confirm that she cheated on you?”

Minho places his palm on his chest.

He starts to sweat.

Why did he suddenly felt guilty?

“What is this feeling?”

“You should let her explain.”

He heard the voice.

He furrows his eyebrows and his chest, calming his heart.

“What have I done?”

                                                                                                ***

Sulli drown her tired body in the vanilla musk scented bath after Yoogeun take his noon nap inside her room.

She let the bathroom door ajar so that she can hear if Yoogeun starts to cry or whine.

She closes her eyes and let the warmth of the water relieves her.

She is tired.

Tired of Minho’s coldness.

Tired of thinking about Taemin.

Tired of staying in the house all the time.

And tired of her life.

Sulli sighs.

“Is this karma?”

She doesn’t know.

What have she done to lead this live?

Is she is the one to be blame that she wanders around in the mall alone?

Is she the one to be blame that Taemin saves her from falling flat on her back?

Is she the one to be blame that she arrives at the hospital on time with Taemin helps?

Is she the one to be blame that her husband is not there when she needs him the most?

Sulli let a few drops of tear falls from her eyes.

She hasn’t crying for weeks or months.

She had been used to Minho’s action.

She chose to not saying anything.

She chose to not talking to him.

She chose to keep shut and answers him only when it is necessary.

She is calmer that way.

Even the house was quiet like a cemetery, it’s better than having Minho’s cold and straight voice talking to her.

It pierces her heart.

It shook her fragile little heart.

Sulli took the sponge and cleans her body.

She steps out of the bath tub and let the shower wipes away the soaps before she wraps her body with a dry towel.

Yoogeun is wide awake when she finishes dressing up in a knee length aqua blue dress and tied her hair up in a bun.

“Shall we go and take some fresh air my son?”

Sulli showers his face with tiny kisses which makes him giggles cutely.

“Let’s see how many teeth had grown?”

Yoogeun opens his mouth when Sulli puts her finger on his lower lips.

“It’s two. Charasseo my baby.”

Sulli teases Yoogeun for a while before she left him to get his diaper and new pair of romper.

“Let’s see omma’s garden neh. It’s so green now.”

Sulli smiles and kisses Yoogeun’s cheek and walks down the stairs while she sings children’s songs.

                                                                                                ***

“Do you want me to remind you about the party?”

“Nope. I keep it in mind already.”

“The last few invitation. Can I send it already?”

“Sure. Send Taemin’s too.”

“Are you sure?”

Minho nods.

“He still is in the board. What will my father in-law say if I did not invite him. Let’s be professional right.”

“Right.”

Luna smiles.

“Anything else?”

Minho shakes his head before he look at Luna who was going to turn around.

“Luna.”

“Yes Mr. Minho.”

She starts to flips the front page of her note book.

“Can you make a reservation for two tonight?”

“Oh sure. Where should I make the reservation?”

“Japanese. Make sure it’s private.”

“Yoogeunie?”

Minho chuckles.

“He’ll be fine crawling in the room.”

Luna smiles and nods.

“Deh Mr. Minho. I’ll make the reservation right away.”

“Tell them to give me a call after that.”

“Okay. Is there anything else?”

“Nothing Luna. Thanks again.”

“No problem.”

She turns her heels and heads to the door.

“We need to talk.”

He said to Sulli’s photo on his table before he leans his back on the chair.

Just a piece of advice

“When you don't talk, there's a lot of stuff that ends up not getting said.”
