Chereads / TAATU S3 / Chapter 7 - CHAPTER 5

Chapter 7 - CHAPTER 5

Haru's POV

I took my leave early because this morning Bryan asked me to go out with me...

----

"Wanna go out with me today?" Bryan just stood in front of me, I was just eating french toast that he made with some tea, in front of the TV. I froze, speechless. Awkwardness and silence filled the atmosphere and the air. I bit my lips, into his shiny golden eyes while being puzzled, making wonder about what was he thinking about right now. I snapped out of it and questioned about it "For like a date?" I continued chewing the bit of my toast.

"Yeah. At a restaurant." He answered as he scratches his head. I sipped my tea slowly and pulled the cup away from my lips. "Sure. When?" I put down the cup at the coffee table. "Around 2pm or so. Whenever you can leave your shift." He looked on his watch that was tied on his right wrist where the tattoo was marked. "Ok, I'll ask my manager if I could take an early leave." I picked up all of my dirty dishes and stood up. He smiled and head out for work.

----------------------------------------

I just stared at the library guestbook, waiting for a co-worker of mine...

KTING

Speaking of the devil.

"Harold!" Harold came in. He was also studying at the same college as Kang but he probably didn't realize it because they take different courses. Harold takes care of the photography for the photography section and recites poem for the children. He combed his jet black hair with his hand "What's up?". I then politely asked him "I need for you to do a favor, I took an early leave from Miss Jade. But there's nobody left to read stories for the children."

He added "Why did you take a leave though?". I gave him a light smile. "I have a date with my boyfriend." I explained about my situation. "What about Alexie." He questioned me as he raises his left eyebrow. "Ah, her dad will come pick her up and send her here for her story time." I packed all of my stuff into my bag, while taking a peek at the clock behind Harold.

"Oh ok, then. You'll have to cover my shift next week." Harold responded with a very cute smile. "I'll be going then!" I got out of the library, waving my hand at Harold.

Bryan's POV

I slowly steer my way down the busting city streets. It was a really smooth drive back from work. No traffic, no rain, no anything that will give me a bad mood. I parked in front of the apartment building. It was actually owned by me for my underlings. But since they, i meant, we wanted a apartment, I rented an empty spot. I looked at the radio's clock.

'1:50 PM'

I leave the car's engine on, went out of the car and leaned over in front of it, waiting for Haru. Out of sudden, my ears caught footsteps... of a woman wearing high heels. "How you doing, m'lady?" I bowed to her as she giggled softly. She wore a navy dress with a pair of black high heels.

"Well, well, then. We're gonna be late." She pouted. I smiled as i walked at the passenger's seat to open the door for Haru. "Thank you, Stefan~" Haru kisses my left cheek as she went into the Mercedes, making me really red. I quickly snapped out of it and ran back in the car.

...

"Remember, Stefan. Be loyal to the ones you love.."

I drove slowly as he remember a small memory of mine...

"Like how I love you, mother?"

"Yes, Stefan. Always respect your dad."

"Even... Even.."

"Even what?!"

"Will, he's our son!"

"Well, he's not like one of us."

...

"Bryan."

"Bryan."

"Bryan Stefan Watson."

Haru clapped her hands, to make me realize that we were at the restaurant. "Oop, Sorry." I got up and opened the door out.

...

Haru's POV

Bryan looked really pale after the drive. I gather all my courage and asked him "Are you okay? If not, we could just go back home." He looked at me with his both of his golden eyes "I'm okay, just a bit stressed out by work." He lied, I could tell by his tone and the look on his face.

We sat down at the table that was located at the balcony next to the lake. "So, how's work lately?" I questioned about what was he so 'stressed' about while looking at the menu. "Su Ge-Jin (Yep changed another name.) had a fight with some street gang yesterday. Had to go downstairs to stop the fight. Pretty tough on the guys." He was also looking at the menu. It was a nice American-British restaurant so, basically, food.

"The hell, why's the name of this dish... Toad in the hole."

Bryan chuckled. "You have to taste it. It's a decent meal for a dinner." He gave a thumbs up. "Well, I haven't seen you eat a British meal." I responded, staring at the flock of swans near the lake. "I love it. It's just... Not getting the same feeling if you eat it now."

I patted his left hand as I replied "Hey, if you don't want to eat, we could just... do something else.." Bryan sighed. "Like what?"

"Movies!" His frown turned into a light smile when I replied. We got up, apologized to the waiters and the waitress and went to the cinema.

"What's that?"

Bryan points at a poster of the film, Twilight.

"Nothing, just a series that took Cedric from us and made him fucking sparkle."

"Wait what?"

Now, some quotes for you HP fans. (You twihards won't understand.)

"Even though we've got a fight ahead of us, we got something that Voldemort doesn't..."

"Something worth fighting for..."

-Harry Potter, The boy who lived

...

"Harry, What happens if Umbridge finds out..."

"Who cares, I mean, it's sort of exciting, isn't it, breaking rules?"

"Who are you and what have you done with Hermione?"

-The ultimate duo, Ron and Hermione

*T.B.C*

Here's another quote.

"We have something that Voldemort doesn't..."
