Hanbit ran to Sella and lifted her up.
“ I'm back!” Hanbit said as he spinned Sella around.
“ I know!” she giggled happily and hugged him.
“ You smell good” He said as he hugged her tightly placing her back on the floor.
“ I can't say the same about you, though. ”
“ You should wash up ” She said playfully as she pushed him away from her and to the bathroom.
After that she went in the kitchen and she put on her apron as began preparing the food.
After a while, Hanbit came out of the bathroom and went in the bedroom to changed his clothes. When he was finished he hugged her from behind, surprising her for a minute or two but she nudged him saying, “ Stop, I'm still cooking.”
“Ok ” he said in a sad tone as he walked to the table and sat down quietly.
Sella turned and looked at him, approaching him saying,“ You're such a kid sometimes ” as she knelt down and hugged him before leaving to check the food.
Then she took a taste before adding a bit more salt.
“You need any help?” Hanbit asked as he watched Sella stir the food in the pot one last time before turning off the stove.
“ I'm fine.”
“You should just relax, after all you travelled a lot for that family meeting. ”
“ It must have been stressful. ”
“I wish I could have been there for you ” She said worrily.
Hanbit got up and held her hand pulling her into a hug and then said,“ You are supposed to be there, and just now, you will be able to go.”
He comforted her, patting her gently on her back as she tightly hugged him back.
“Now, come on, let's stop talking about all those sad stuff and enjoy this wonderful meal you made” Hanbit said as he pulled her to the table, sitting her down before pouring the food into a big glass bowl which he placed in the middle of the small table before taking the seat opposite to her.
They began eating and drinking some juice Sella had set on the table before Hanbit left the bathroom.
Sella picked at her food which she never did before, attracting Hanbit's attention.
“ What's wrong Sella?” Hanbit asked getting up and sitting next to Sella.
“ I just feel like I don't belong. ”
“ Maybe your father is right, you are too good for me ” Sella said turning her head away from Hanbit.
Hanbit took Sella's left hand from under the table and kissed it making Sella blush.
“You are wrong. ”
“ You are too good for me, so if you are ok with being with me, I am ok with it too.” Hanbit said reassuring her.
“ But what about your father's permission? ”
“ Plus, our families' are enemies. ”
“Would it really work out ok?” Sella said looking at Hanbit.
She was not worried about herself but what Hanbit's father would do to him if he were to disobey him.
Hanbit saw Sella's worried expression on her face and gently caressed her face as he said,“ Don't worry.”
“Everything will work out for us.”
“Come on, eat some food.”
Hanbit ate some of the food before Sella ate. After the put the food in the fridge, they went to bed, saying they're goodnight before going to sleep.
The sounds of birds chirping and bright light that peeked through her window as she woke up. Hanbit who was still asleep laid quiet on the bed before twisting and hugging Sella around her waist.
“ Ughhh.... Morning” he said as he let out a loud groan.
“ Morning, Did I wake you up? ” Sella asked brushing his long strands of black hair to side of his hair and behind his ear.
“ No, I was awake already ” he said nuzzling his head on Sella's laps.
“What time is it?” Sella asked.
Hanbit reached for his phone on the bedside table and put it on, groaning because the screen was too bright.
“It's 5:28. We can rest more he said as he placed his phone back where it was and pulled Sella down, wrapping his arms around Sella gently.
“Is there anywhere you need to go?” She asked
“ I wanted to take you so.......” before Hanbit could finish his sentence, he fell asleep with his arms still wrapped around her.
She fell asleep a little while after Hanbit.
Hanbit woke up again and looked at Sella who was hugging him tightly.
“ She is so close to me ” he thought embarrassed and his face bright red.
He kissed her on her forehead and slowly got off the bed, making his way to the kitchen.
He took the remainder of the food for himself and made a something else for Sella. He warmed his food in the microwave and after a while the food had finished cooking. He strained the macoroni and mixed it with the cooked minced meat and then took the macoroni pie from out of the oven placing it next to the finished macoroni and minced meat. He took out some of both putting it on a plate and taking his food that he covered down after warming placed both his food and Sella's food on a tray. He then went back in the bedroom and saw Sella looking scared. He placed the food down and rushed to her side asking, “ A nightmare again?”
She nodded silently
Before he had left for his family meeting, she have been getting nightmares which would wake her up in the middle of the night.
“ Was that the reason why she was up earlier? ” he asked himself as he looked at her.
“ Was it the same one as before? ” he asked.
She nodded, her hands shaking.
He hugged her comforting her. She stopped shaking and looked at Hanbit with a soft expression as she said, “ Thank you ”
They stayed like that for a few minutes before Hanbit left to get the tray saying, “ I made you some food.”
