"And today we're parents of two 5-year-old twins and living a happy life with little fights and sweet romance"
I concluded by typing the last line and clicking submit button to start the process of review and editing.
Stretching my hands in the air, I yarned and looked at my blue lamp with the attached clock to notice it was too late for preparing dinner.
Instantly, I stood up from my chair left my laptop on, and went towards the kitchen to prepare something quick and easy that everyone loves. I reached into the collider to see the kitchen lights already on thus I grew wary because I know he cannot cook or even boil water properly. With quiet and unchanging steps, I reached the kitchen and glimpsed inside to see whose there.
At first, the scene was startling but it turned witty after my daughter tossed flour on my son aka on her two-minute younger brother, and my husband was standing there baffled thinking about whom to punish because just after that my son unloaded a whole glass of water on my daughter.
For a second, all this seemed funny but then I acknowledged that the one who will be cleansing all the chaos is me and nobody else so I immediately make my existence known in the kitchen and everyone went still doing whatever they were going to do.
They were undoubtedly scared and they absolutely should have been because my kitchen and my laptop are off-limits to everyone including my children and particularly my dear husband.
I still cannot believe how can a person be so clumsy even after almost 5 years of our marriage but he looks adorable even after being king of clumsiness and that is why he is known to be the one, I guess.
Back to the kitchen, I glared at each of them and my kids leave the kitchen and headed directly to their room after apologizing and bowing their heads down. Aish... these kids have got their father's genes in bowing, I swear.
I again looked in the kitchen, to find my husband still there, yanking his apron wrapped with flour and spices but what I did not glimpse before was that he had only an apron hiding his chest and nothing else.
I went inside and assisted him to remove the apron because he had worn it incorrectly and got stuck in it. Accidently, I brushed his bare chest which made him groan and that groan made me feel his chest again.
Now, this time he scowled and arched his eyebrows at me causing me to smile sheepishly.
I withdrew my hands and now felt the need to touch his flawlessly sculptured chest but I have already encountered the consequences in the past so I deprived myself of that.
He was still eyeing me and this time I arched my eyebrow and displayed to him the disarray created in my kitchen because of them and specifically him.
His eyes followed mine and he sighed before apologising and bowing his head and going to our room to scrub up.
I then ordered two 10" Queen Cheese pizzas and four Chicken Noodle Soups with one black bean noodle (jajangmyeon) and mopped the entire kitchen.
I think I should get a door with a passcode for my kitchen to keep it secure and away from burning down in the future by my beloved husband.
After 30 minutes of cleaning and making my kitchen more recognizable from the one they made, I sat on my sofa to relax my aching muscles from continuously sitting against the laptop for 8 hours. I love my editor but sometimes she made me hate her by giving me the time limits to complete the chapter. But I think now there won't be any pressure from her side as I have completed my entire book.
I am launching this book on our 7th anniversary and surprising my husband by gifting him this book. My all unsaid feelings for him are written down in it and I hope he likes that.
I was deep in my thoughts when the doorbell rang indicating the pizza delivery has arrived. I pulled myself out off the sofa and took the money with me from the counter to pay the bill.
I opened the door and a boy in his early twenties smiled at me with the pizza boxes in his hand. I take them and pay the bill. He then asked for my husband's autograph as he saw him behind me and I was unaware that he was there. I followed his eyes and found him there glaring at the delivery boy. Aish this man will never change. I looked at him and his gaze shifted to me and his eyes softened.
"Honey, he is asking for your autograph."
I subtly glared at him to behave before smiling and he understood. He then smiled at the delivery boy and signed in the book that he offered. He then said thank you and left. I closed the door as he went out of sight and then again glared at my husband for his childish behaviour.
"Are you seriously trying to make that boy run away fearing you?" I asked as I placed pizza boxes on the platform. He didn't reply so I looked over my shoulder to see the reason and there he was staring at me amusingly. I rolled my eyes as I knew this is his old act to cool my temper but today I won't let him win.
Hence, I turned around and stood in front of him keeping my hands in my pant's back pockets and tapping my foot impatiently for him to answer.
Instead of answering his next action caught me off-guard.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and close the distance between us within a few seconds. Our faces were only an inch apart and I once again reminded myself of the reason I fall for this man. His eyes always attracted me from the first time, I started learning about his group. I never knew a day will come when we will be at a stage of life where we are today but I believe in god and his blessings.
"I love when you look angry. It radiates your face even more." He whispered in my ears bringing me back to the present hearing him say that made my face blush.
Yes, he still has the same effect on me as he had 7 years ago. I mentally rolled my eyes at myself for showing him that right now.
He kissed my cheeks softly on either side and hovered his lips over mine. He is such a tease, I must say.
"Mom, Did you order pizza and chicken noodle soup?"
I sighed as I heard them and freed myself from his arms. He didn't want to leave me but when I poke him in his sides, being tingly he loosens it and I step out of it.
"Yes my babies, I did. Now wash your hands and set up the dining table, your dad will carry the food today to the table. "
I said looking at them and they understood the reason and didn't argue further. He also said nothing and just does as I said.
The phone rang and I smiled at the caller ID.
"Oppa!! How are you?"
I asked the person on the other side of the phone. He is not my brother but he is one of my husband's best friends and I must say all of them treat me as their sister which I always made me feel comfortable to be around them.
"I am great. But Is your kitchen okay?"
I hear the hesitation in his voice along with worry and I wanted to laugh off thinking how his friends also don't trust him around the kitchen.
"Yes, Don't worry I caught them before they make it more unrecognizable."
I sighed as I saw him coming out of the kitchen and giving me a questionable look.
"One second Oppa, I am passing the phone to him. Please scold him from your side."
I said before passing the phone to him.
But before that, I heard all my Oppas voices replying to me saying They definitely will, which made me giggle.
He looked embarrassed and as per his expression, I can guess it must have been Minie Oppa or Jinie Oppa scolding him for playing in the kitchen along with the kids without informing me. I felt bad for him as he hung his head low and listen to all of them scolding one by one and me and my kids watched him open his mouth to speak and then decide to do against it. My kids looked at each other and get themselves ready to be scolded by kookie Oppa for being reckless but I think he won't do it on call. He will rather visit tomorrow or the day after tomorrow along with the Tae Oppa and park Oppa to comfort them after kookie Oppa scold them.
I smiled as I saw the scene before me and thanked god for the beautiful and amazing family they blessed me with.
After the call ended, we finished our dinner and discussed the homework and school exams my kids were going to appear in after a week. They said they are doing great at such a young age and I felt proud of that.
After dinner, they went to their room to wash up and sleep while I placed the dishes and bowl in the sink to wash. I was about to finish when two large hands engulfed me from behind and placed his head on my shoulder.
"Please, forgive me for today. I wanted to just help you but it turned against it."
He said in a sweet and cute tone which was irresistible.
I turned off the water and wiped my hands with a dry cloth before placing it beside the sink.
I turned around and lock my arms around his neck which made him step closer to me. I couldn't resist anymore and kissed his lips slowly and pulled apart to look into his eyes. He didn't react to my sudden action but then pulled me against his chest making no space for air to pass through and kissed my lips passionately.
Our lips are perfectly synced and his tongue licked my lips asking me permission to open them. I happily parted them and he invaded my mouth deepening the kiss.
I let him dominate it and enjoy being in his arms. After a few minutes, we pulled apart to catch our breath while our heads supported each other.
"I am sorry for overreacting today. I was..."
"No please don't say that."
"Let me complete, honey"
I said with soft eyes and he smiled showing his cute dimples and nodded his head.
"I am sorry for overreacting today. I was just afraid to see all three in the kitchen. I care about my kitchen but I care more for all of you. If something happened what will people say that she was too busy to feed them so they have to cook for themselves even though they didn't know anything about the kitchen? Next time, even though, I am working within a time limit inform, let me know the time, and I will make dinner for us. The book can wait but family comes first and will always in the future."
I said as I hugged him and he hold me there.
After our intimate moment, I checked the security alarm and then peek through our kid's room to watch them sleeping soundlessly. I then went to our room to see him coming out of the bathroom freshly showered. I shook my head not allowing any further thought as my body won't handle it today and took my towel before sleeping into the bathroom.
I wore the black cotton spaghetti strapped top and matching black cotton shorts which hardly reached my mid-thigh. I then went to the bed where he was going through his Instagram account. Looking at me, he kept his phone aside and made space for me to duck into the blanket beside him. I set the alarm and then turned off the lights making the room black with darkness.
He wrapped his arms around my waist pulling me close to him. He then snuggled against me and sleep took over us in no time.
