THE UNREQUITED LOVE

38.

After our lunch, I insisted Fiona and Dad take the kids to the living room while I and Yeonjun will do the dishes, both of us doing the dishes silently then he spoke,

"You look happier today"

I smiled while rinsing the plate and replied,

"I'm, all of this felt like a dream"

"You know you can be here as much as longer you want to"

I looked up at him and nodded, he looked into my eyes and I spoke,

"I know but I can't"

"Why?"

He almost whispered but I heard it, there was an emotion lingering in his eyes at which I was unable to put a finger, he was bold but nervous to cross any line at the same time. I looked back at the sink and while rinsing the other plate I replied,

"I have my own family to take care of"

"But you won't be this happy there"

He stated the truth and I paused, he turned the tap off and faced me completely. He held me by my shoulders and turned me towards him, he held my chin and made me face him, he looked into my eyes and spoke,

"I know everything about you and Taehyung"

I shook my head in denial not wanting to talk about this right now but he continued,

"I know about Eun-woo too"

I looked up at him stunned, how?... he sighed and spoke,

"Yn you don't have to act around us"

"You can be yourself here"

I can be me.

I don't even know who I am, how can I act like one then, a part of me wanted to break down right here in front of him and beg for his comfort but I did the otherwise I chuckled bottling up all of my emotions, and turned back facing the sink, I turn on the water and continued to wash the few dishes left, I smiled and spoke,

"I know Yeonjun"

"But it's just the way I'm"

I deadpanned him, he sighed and took the last plate from my hand, I looked up at him confused he didn't care to look at me instead he washed the last dish and spoke,

"You go back there"

He said nudging me towards the living room, I don't know what's wrong with him he cares too much not that I'm complaining but I'm not used to this much attention, it just scares me that if I hurt him unintentionally cause that's the only thing I do to people who care about me and I don't want to hurt him, he is so pure...

I pushed all the thoughts at the back of my head and after wiping my hands dry I walked into the living room with a smile on my face. I sat beside Dad and he immediately wrapped his arms around me, I sighed as all the thoughts started to disappear from my head, I snuggled into his well-built muscular chest wanting to sleep like this. He pecked my head and asked,

"Are you sleepy?"

I hummed and closed my eyes getting comfortable with him, I heard him chuckling and at the next second I felt someone covering me with a duvet. Soon due to too much comfort, I started to fall into slumber while hearing everyone talking and kids chuckling over something Yeonjun just told them, with a smile on my face I fell asleep.

TAEHYUNG'S POV

I sighed heavily I looked over at my wrist it was six in the evening already and I hadn't heard anything from Yn yet. Plus because she took a day off today, I had to work double than usual not that I'm complaining but I miss her presence already. First, she was ignoring me since last night, and then in the morning that Yeonjun was acting all lovey-dovey with her, that shit made me jealous.
