Marriage with an Idol - Chapter 6:Hunger Intruder?
I walk into the kitchen casually and sit down on the counter stool. I look at his back and smile to myself. How weird would it be if I go and hug him? I have only seen these kinds of scenes in movies or novel. He turns around and lets out a sigh; but in return, I just giggle at him.
Minhyuk… of Monsta X was in my kitchen this time.
“Oh, come on Dior… How many time have I told? Change out of your pyjamas in the morning” Minhyuk nags at me like a Mum.
He puts down the French toast on the breakfast bar and walks over to me. My heart almost skips a beat at seeing him come close to me. He turns the stool and puts his arms on my shoulder. I look at him perplexed and just smile.
“Dior, I know nothing happened last night but are you tempting me now” Minhyuk eyes look down and I look down in confusion as well. The top button of my shirt was undone, and you could almost see everything. I move my arms to quickly cover my chest. My cheeks start turning red and I could feel the heat rising in the kitchen. I look away and try my best to avoid any eye contact with him. Minhyuk gently kisses the top of my forehead and pats my head gently. I try and ignore to look into his eyes due to embarrassment.
“Dior, promise me to never show your cute expression to anyone other than me. Let this be my memory” I look at him confused as to what he means. Memory? I don’t want things to be complicated so I just nod at him. Minhyuk pats my head again like he was patting a small animal.
“Now, go and change your clothes. We will have our breakfast in the living room today…” Minhyuk escorts me out of the kitchen gently. For a second, I thought I heard Minhyuk say something like “Let this kitchen keep the memory of someone it already has” but then again, I have an over the top imagination, so it could be my thoughts running wild.
I quickly walk into my bedroom and open the cupboard. I don’t bother dressing myself up and just wear the first thing I could find. My stomach was starting to rumble. I walk out of the bedroom and close the door behind me gently. Minhyuk was already sat on the sofa with a table in front of him. Smoke was arousing from the toast and the cups. For me, this was a feast. All I usually had for breakfast was just a cup of coffee.
I walk over to Minhyuk and casually sit down next to him on the sofa. It feels like I have done this many time, like a De Ja Vu. Minhyuk puts his arms on my shoulder and I turn myself to look at him. He smiles for a second and then quickly becomes serious.
“Feed me” What? I look at Minhyuk, shocked for a second but then the confused the next. He points at the french toast and then his mouth the next. He looked super cute in that situation and I almost wanted to cuddle him in my arms. His eyes were shining like a start when he looked at me. I let out a sigh and reach for the fork. I start feeding Minhyuk and he just stares at me the whole time: smiling.
In the middle of this perfect situation, my stomachs start growling. I thought I was in control of my stomach, but I guess not. Minhyuk looks at me a bit shocked. Did he think I just farted? My cheeks turn the colour of tomato again and I rush to speak, to clear the misunderstanding.
“It wasn’t me… I mean it was me, but it was my stomach… not what you are thinking” I look at my hands and try to calm down as much as possible. I hear laughter and look up immediately.
Minhyuk was laughing super hard and there were hints of water appearing in his eyes. I feel even more embarrassed now. I look down again and start thinking of solutions. Should I go to my room? but that won’t do me any good. A pair of hands reaches for my face and cuddles it. I am forced to look at Minhyuk even though I try my best to avoid eye contact.
“That’s why I fell in love with you!” Minhyuk had stopped laughing and he looks sincere while saying those words. Like he was serious and didn’t mean anything as a joke. Minhyuk leans closer to my face; I close my eyes as well. I was being swept away by Minhyuk’s aura and something about him just dragged me closer to him. For sure, I felt like we were about to kiss… but then…
My stomach growled in the middle again. Oh gosh, this is the second or third time already. I can’t believe misfortune had to happen to me today. I looked at my hands again, ever since the members kept appearing. I have developed this habit of looking at my hand whenever I felt embarrassed.
Minhyuk starts feeding me and I eat without looking at him. The french toast was delicious and without even realizing it, I ate more than 3 toasts. I look down at my stomach and I could see it popping out a little. While I was eating, Minhyuk kept on telling me his entertaining stories. Some stories in which I was part of; but for me, I never had any memory of the moment.
I pick up the dishes and start walking towards the kitchen. Minhyuk was starting a game in the X-box. I thought I didn’t have an x-box before, but then again, I didn’t have those couple anime cups either which I do have them now. I put down the dishes in the sink and turn on the tap to wash them. A hand wraps around my stomach. I almost jump out from his embrace but Minhyuk holds me tight. I could feel his warm breath on my neck. Before I can speak, Minhyuk breaks the silence…
“Just let me be like this, I don’t know when we will be like this again” I turn my head to look at him. Why does everything feel like a puzzle?
“What do you mean?” This time, instead of staying quiet, I question him. Enough of these mysteries now. All that everyone does is give me tiny hints of situation. My IQ may be average but it’s not at a higher level to understand these mysteries.
“Hmm, Do you really not know, Dior?” He looks at me a bit shocked and I look at him confused in return.
“Well, here is a little hint. I am about to be tamed” After whispering these words, Minhyuk leaves the kitchen and I could feel a cold chilly wind travelling all over my body.
Tamed? What does he mean? You can tame an animal but how can you tame a human? A sudden consciousness hits me like a thunder. My cheeks turn red and I thought the smoke was starting to pour out of me. I bet a lighting fell somewhere as well. I bring my hands closer to my cheeks and try to cool them down.
I turn around and walk out of the kitchen to follow after Minhyuk. I need to clear this misunderstanding and it better not be what I thought. Gosh, my brain and my dead cells in there. I will die of embarrassment if it is not what I think.
I walk into my living room and end up finding someone new again. Gosh, what is with everyone leaving me on a cliff-hanger? I feel like this going to be a short day with long quizzes and mysteries…
