[Taylum’s POV]
After waking up, I go through my morning routine then stop in front of my closet. I like fashion and order my clothes online because I don’t want to go shopping with Tarryin. Last time I went with her, she made me try on clothes that other people also tried on – dirty clothes.
I pull a plain white tee-shirt over my head and pulled on white jeans ripped at the knees. I put on white socks and step into my white All-Stars. Shrugging on my white pullover, covered in black feathers, I walk to my dresser and comb my hair out.
Looking in the mirror, I make sure nothing is out of place then put on a silver ring on my left hands pinky and a silver bracelet on my wrist.
Knocking on my door, mama comes in, “Taytay, your boyfriend is here,” she says and I nod with a smile.
After what happened two days ago I forgave my parents like I always do. I can’t help it that I’m afraid of noise but it’s worse when I don’t expect it. I spent that night with Dae and he took me home with him. I never got a chance to meet his mother and father because it was late at night and they were asleep along with his brother and sister.
He said that I could meet them next time because I also didn’t see them yesterday morning after we woke up. Dae asked me if I wanted to come back home since we had school and I said yes.
Although he didn’t sleep over by my house, I got to sleep over by his house. I still got what I wanted but Dae said I shouldn’t want him to come over all the time after I told him why papa reacted like that. Dae said papa might not like it because I’m their child and having boyfriends sleepover wasn’t the proper way to do things, especially since Dae and I just got together.
I walk out of my room after saying goodbye to Finley and close my door behind me. Walking down the steps, I count them like I always do. Reaching the living room, I see that Dae is seated on the couch while looking around the room.
“Dae,” I call him and he stands up. He walks over to me and kisses my forehead while hugging me. “Are you ready to go Angel?” he asks and I nod.
He hums and says, “Okay, Mrs Rayleigh, we’re leaving.”
“Okay, have fun you two and bring my son home with not a single hair missing from his head, you hear me?” mama says making Dae laugh but I don’t understand why he is laughing.
His hand slides into mine he leads me out the house. “Bye-bye mama,” I say while we walk out and she greets back.
As we walk out I look at Dae’s back. He’s wearing a khaki coloured pants and jacket with a white shirt underneath it. His necklace is around his neck and on his feet white vans, “You look nice today Dae,” I say as he opens the door to his car for me.
After making sure I’m seated and buckled in, he kisses my cheek, “Thank you Angel, you’re looking sexy today,” he says making me blush. He chuckles and kisses my forehead then closes the door. I watch him jog around the car while holding my hands on my cheeks – I feel so warm.
Dae climbs into the car and buckles his seat belt. Starting the engine we drive off. “So where to Angel?” he asks and I reach into my pocket for the list that Tarryin gave me.
“Here list Dae,” I say and he shakes his head.
“I’m driving so I can’t have a look, did you have breakfast this morning? It’s only eight-thirty so we can go have breakfast,” he says and I shake my head.
“I no have breakfast,” I say and he hums.
“Then where shall we have breakfast,” he asks and I look at the list.
“Tarryin put Mila’s Café on, we go there?” I say and he nods.
Dae slows the car down and takes out his phone. I see him google search Mila’s café and he puts his phone on the stand on the dashboard. He follows the directions google map shows us. The car is quiet and I’m fine with that. I can hear Dae breath in and out and it’s very relaxing for me – I love it.
“Dae?” I call him and he looks over before looking back at the road.
“Yes Angel?” he answers.
“I like you accent, you no from here?” I say while pressing down the button for the window to open.
“Thank you Angel, yes I’m not from America, I’m from South Korea,” he says while I stick my hand out the window and spread my fingers so that the wind glides through it.
“You take me there?” I ask and I hear him chuckle.
“Do you want to travel?” he asks me and I nod.
“If with you, mn k,” I say and he hums.
“Well I can take you anywhere you want to go Angel,” he says making me smile.
“I want go wall China too.”
“Well, we can go to all the countries except those that have wars going on and disasters,” he says while parking the car across the road from the café.
He takes the list from me and holds my hand while we cross the road. We enter the café and walk to the counter.
I look around and see that there are only two tables occupied making it pretty empty.
“Good morning, can I take your order please?” the lady behind the counter says.
“What are you having Angel,” Dae asks and I shrug. He pulls me to stand in front of him and lifts my head. I see the screens in front of us and read what’s written. After a moment he asks, “So what will you be having Angel?”
“Chicken fingers, omelette, one blueberry muffin and Jasmine tea,” I say. My eyes drift down and I shake my head making Dae let go. He wraps his arms around my waist and places his chin on my head.
“Well you heard him, I’ll have an omelette and French toast with strawberry syrup with black German coffee and no sugar, also two glasses of water with no ice and a slice of lemon,” he says while she taps away at the screen in front of her.
“Okay sirs’, please have a seat and your breakfast will be served when it’s done,” she says and we nod. I quickly grab Dae’s hands and drag him to the corner table near the window. When we sit down, he smiles at me but doesn’t say anything and looks down at the list in his hands.
After strumming his fingers on the table he says, “There’s so much to do, we won’t be able to do everything since I need to be home at five.”
“Why you be home at five?” I ask him feeling sad, I thought we’d be together the whole day.
He looks at me with a saddened smile, “I help my father out with his job and it has me up and down always. Today I need to go to Calabasas to do a delivery on his behalf.”
I not my head slowly as our stuff, my Jasmine tea and his coffee and the two glasses of water get put down on the table. When the waitress leaves I look back at him. He’s fiddling with the glass of water while putting one in front of me.
“I no order this,” I say and he hums.
“But you still need it, you ordered so much, I don’t think the tea will be enough, if you want, you can order juice too, later,” he says while taking a sip of the water.
I don’t comment and take a sip of water while waiting for my Jasmine tea to cool off. “Dae?” I call while looking at him.
“Yes Angel?” he answers and I reach over to grab his hand in mine.
“When you birthday?” I ask and he smiles at me.
“My birthday passed Angel, it’s on the 12th of January,” he says making me sigh.
“We celebrate no?” I ask making him smile. The waitress brings over our muffins and omelettes, “Your chicken fingers will be out soon and so will the French toast,” she says then walks away.
“Yes we can if you want Angel, when’s your birthday?” he asks and I smile.
“Birthday in three weeks,” I say making him grin.
“What do you want for your birthday Angel,” he asks while putting butter on his blueberry muffin.
“Sex,” I say while drinking the water and hear him cough. I look over to see him wipe his mouth with the serviette and looking at me with wide eyes.
“Are you serious?” he asks me while I take the muffin into my mouth.
I nod my head, “I serious.”
“But why that, shouldn’t you wait rather for marriage?” he says making me frown.
“I have Dae, no need wait,” I say looking over at him and see him nodding slowly. I smile because I see his face turning red.
We eat our omelettes in comfortable silence while I sneak glances at Dae. He’s still pink in the face but not as much as before. The French toast and chicken fingers come halfway through our omelettes.
Picking up my fork I reach over to the French toast but it suddenly disappears. Frowning I look up at Dae’s amused grin.
“It’s not yours,” he says.
“I want taste,” I grumble while going for it again and he pulls it away again.
“No be selfish Dae!” I say and he laughs. He pushes the plate in front of me and I cut a piece off then dip it into the syrup. Taking it into my mouth, my mouth begins to water as I start eating between the three plates and make sure to leave chicken fingers and the French toast.
“Are you done,” he asks as I wipe my mouth with a napkin. Nodding my head, he smiles and gets up, “Let’s use the toilet first before we head out,” he says as he waves at the waitress.
I get up and follow him to the toilet after we talk to the waitress. After finishing up in the toilet, we stop at the counter and I look around to see some looking at me and Dae. They’re oogling my man and I don’t like it.
I wrap my arm around Dae’s waist and cuddle him. He looks down at me and kisses my forehead making me smile. He places his hand on the small of my back and rubs circles soothing me, while he pays our bills.
We head out and back to the car. After buckling in he says, “So… we’ll head to the carnival then and after that we can have lunch or we could just eat the shitty food the carnival provides,” he ends with a sigh.
I shake my head, “We no eat junk, we eat good, k?” I say my head and he smiles as we pull into traffic.
“Dae, where we go?” I ask and he hums.
Switching on the indicator, we turn into the next street and says, “Well I did say I was taking you to the carnival so that’s where we are heading, do you think you’ll be able to go on the rides?” he asks.
