Transmigration: The Narcissistic Cinderella - Chapter 175
“Oh! You scared me!” Moon Jiwoo exclaimed the moment she opened her eyes.
Moon Jiwoo was having a wonderful dream when everything broke apart due to the loud sound from her alarm, and letting out a yawn, she was about to turn to her left when Oh Sookyung’s face fell into her line of sight.
Cupping his cheeks with his hands, he supported his elbows on her bed while he stared at her with a smile on his face. Not expecting this the moment she woke up, a squeal escaped from her mouth.
Seeing him this early in the morning did feel unrealistic to her, and her heart started to beat rapidly— she didn’t know whether it was because of the fright or for some other reason— within her ċhėst.
“Good morning,” the man cheerfully said.
Creases appeared between both of her eyebrows before she questioned, “What are you doing at here?”
“I thought that you wanted to see me the first thing in the morning. That’s why, I woke up extra early in order to arrive at here. As a bonus, I was able to see you sleep. You are really cute!” he voiced out.
Pressing her palms on top of the bed, Moon Jiwoo supported herself up and sat up on it. Removing the blanket off of her, she let her legs out of the bed. Standing up, Oh Sookyung proceeded to take a seat beside the girl.
“You do know that you shouldn’t come to a girl’s house this causally. Moreover, what you did today could be taken as breaking in,” she pointed out.
“It’s fine. It’s not like I am doing this for the first time. Ever since I have arrived to this place, I have been watching you every night of course without you knowing.
One time, you were about to catch me, but I managed to escape before that happened. I wonder what would have been your reaction if you caught me back then. You would have probably—”
Before he was able to continue further, the girl interrupted him by saying, “What do you mean? You were watching me everyday while I sleep.”
Moon Jiwoo’s eyes were widened while the shock and disbelief was clearly shown on her face, as she sought for answer from the boy.
“Well, that every night part was exaggerated, but yes, I watched you sleep most of the times. I always hung around in your place and watched you. However, it seemed that you were never able to notice me. I wonder how dull your senses have grown to become,” he vocalised.
Picking up her pillow from the side, Moon Jiwoo hit the man on the face with it before exclaiming, “You creep! How can you even do that! I am a girl! I know that you can teleport, but can’t you just respect my privacy? I should get some kind of restraining order on you.”
Oh Sookyung let out a chuckle and stated, “You know that wouldn’t be working on me, and what’s wrong with me watching you? You do know that there is no need for privacy when it is between both of us.”
Moon Jiwoo let out a scoff before vocalising, “Who gives you the right to decide that? I want to have privacy, and do respect it. I will break up with you if you don’t. Don’t think that I am bluffing. I am really capable of doing something like that!”
Oh Sookyung started to laugh at those words of her before speaking out, “Privacy are between those who doesn’t know about each other. What is it about you that I don’t know in the first place?
Any way, if you want me to maintain it, sure I will. But the thing is that I don’t know the meaning of privacy. So, do forgive me if I make any mistakes!”
“Wow! You are terrible! How did you even learn to be this sly!? You are utterly shameless,” Moon Jiwoo spoke out.
“Say something new, dear. Now, get up from the bed and have breakfast. I will go and make it for you right now, so wash up quickly,” he said.
“What about work then?” she questioned.
“Oh! You are remembering about work now. I thought that you have forgotten completely about the shop during the time you were taking a break without informing your boss, but it seems that it hadn’t slipped out of your mind totally.”
“Shut up! Stop teasing me! What have you done with the shop? Don’t tell me that you have made a mess out of that place,” Moon Jiwoo said.
“No, I just closed the shop for uncertain amount of time. It’s not like I am able to take care of those flowers in the first place. Since you have run away from the shop for a long time, don’t you think that I have the right to punish you as your boss?”
Moon Jiwoo’s eyes widened at that, and extending her hands towards the male, she pushed his ċhėst away while red started to cover her cheeks. Inappropriate thoughts began to fill in her mind at his suggestion, and she wanted to bang her head against the wall due to that.
“You are disgusting!”
Oh Sookyung chuckled, and in a teasing tone, he voiced out while a twinkle appeared in his eyes: “Disgusting? I had nothing like that in my mind. I was just thinking you making you work overtime or cut your salary for a while.
But it seemed that you have other thoughts. You have grown to become truly dirty throughout the time I was not present. Don’t worry! If you want to, I have no problems with going along with what you have in that mind of yours. Don’t be shy to let me know of your—”
Not letting him continue further, Moon Jiwoo placed her palm in front of his mouth in order to shut the boy down. Right now, she did not even know if she was red due to embarrassment or the thoughts that began to come inside of her mind.
°°°
After Moon Jiwoo was done washing herself up, she headed towards the dining room while the wonderful smell from the breakfast wafted into her nose. A smile formed on her face at that.
Her eyes fell on the variety of dishes made for breakfast on the table, and this made her wonder about how early the man had to come in order to prepare all of that. He must have done the grocery as well since there was bȧrėly anything in her home.
At his consideration, her heart fluttered, and she was more than excited to start the breakfast. Making her way over to the table, she pulled the chair and sat down on it.
“You cooked all of them, right? None of them are store brought?” Jiwoo asked.
Oh Sookyung shook his head and said, “All of them were cooked by your dear boyfriend. That’s why, dig in and let me know about your opinion.”
She didn’t need to be told about that twice.
Without a word more, Moon Jiwoo started to eat. As she tasted each of the dishes, she started to crave for more, and slowly, the speed of her eating started to increase. Her appetite intensified due it how delicious the food made by him.
The entire time she devoured the food, Oh Sookyung stared at the girl opposite to him eutb spark in his eyes, and as he watched her, his heart fluttered due to her cute actions. Although she wasn’t aware of it, she looked extremely endearing to him the moment she was eating.
Oh Sookyung wanted to take a picture of this moment and relish it. But knowing that would only evoke an angered reaction from the girl, he decided against that.
He wished that the time would be stuck right at this instant. He had everything he needed right then, and there was nothing more craved for than this.
Moon Jiwoo raised her head when she realized that the man was staring at her silently for couple of minutes, and raising one of her eyebrows, she asked, “Aren’t you eating?”
Oh Sookyung shook his head and answered, “No, you have them all. I have cooked it all for you after all.”
“You cooked this much all for me? What? Do you take me to be some monster or anything?” Moon Jiwoo questioned.
She was unable to keep the smile from forming on her face before she looked down at her food and started to eat again. One thing Moon Jiwoo wished for right then was to eat his cooking for her entire life.
“I have to admit that you are better than me when it comes to cooking,” Moon Jiwoo commented.
“Is there anything I am bad at when compared to you?”
“Do you want to die!?”
