Hanbit's return

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.
