³⁹An Illusion

3rd Person POV

"You had a meal today?" You asked Taehyung.

You were walking down the street filled with snow,walking arm in arm, you being more clingy to the man's arm.

"No." Taehyung replied bluntly.

"Why?" You stopped walking,looking at your husband.

"I was too busy. I didn't get time. Let's just go home and sleep." Taehyung said,starting to walk again.

"You were drinking with an empty stomach. That's bad for health." You reasoned.

"You're acting like doctor. Honestly." Taehyung said.

"If you're not taking care of your health then I've to act like a doctor." You replied.

"But I said I'm fine."

"I said,it's unhealthy and you'll have listen to me. You've to be health for me,Kim Taehyung." You said,with a smile.

Taehyung just sighed. You were too stubborn to fight with.

"You'll be healthy for me too."

"I'll be. I won't let a single fever catch me."

"That's impossible."

"It can be possible."

"Such a lier." Taehyung laughed,white smoke coming out from his mouth.

The moment stayed still, you staring at the Mafia who was laughing. The sound of his laugh,was magical,it was so beautiful to hear and the more thrilling thing about his laugh was---

The man had a boxy laugh.

It was endearing.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Taehyung asked,after noticing that you had been staring at him,for a while.

"You look more handsome when you laugh." You confessed with a soft smile.

"Meaning I wasn't handsome?" The man raised his eyebrows,quite offended.

"You look more. Understand sentences,Tae. You're handsome but you're more handsome when you laugh. You should laugh more." You added.

"I'm not a crazy person to just be laughing."

"I'll be telling you funny stories then."

"For what?"

"To hear you laugh and see the boxy formation of your lips when you're laughing. It's so pretty." You smiled.

"I'm not pretty." His voice changed, you just bit her lip.

Not knowing what suddenly changed the man's tone.

"Let's go and have meal inside the hotel. I don't see any restaurant around." You said,walking ahead Taehyung.

Taehyung sighed out loud, following you.

"Wait a minute." Taehyung said.

"Yes."

"Let's just sleep here." Taehyung said,looking around the hotel.

"Here. Why? Did Eomma talked to you rudely earlier?" You asked concerningly.

"No. I just want to stay here alone with you." Taehyung replied but the fact wasn't that.

The man didn't want to see your family together for the mean time, because seeing them,had started to cause some longing inside him.

And the Mafia didn't want to have any such feelings.
