14. The seeds of love

A man with long legs entered the women's toilet, which the arena for the girls arguing there. His aura is strong, and his gaze is sharp, making anyone who sees it shudder in horror but still fascinated because his face is so handsome.

"Why do you take so long? I think which country's toilet do you go to." Finally, the man speaks. It is Hyungtae.

He had been waiting since Aera left. It had been almost an hour since Aera left, but the bridge of her nose was nowhere to see. Hyungtae doesn't want to wait too long, instead of focusing on work. His mind was stolen, because he worried how his girl.

"Honey, you're here. Why are you so impatient? I'm just going away for a while. Aaa~~ you really can't stay away from me for too long, right?" Aera just walked past the two stupid girls who had been trying to attack her.

She wrapped her arms around Hyungtae's arm and slightly heated the two girls with her words. Then rested her head on Hyungtae's chest for a while, then lifted her back and looked into Hyungtae's eyes spoiled.

"Say it one more time," Hyungtae asked.

"I said you don't have to pick me up, honey. I just forbade you to take me to the toilet so you can focus on work," said Aera again. Her tone is deliberately spoiled. She wanted to prove to the two girls in front of her that her position was higher than theirs.

"How can I? I haven't seen you for a minute and I already miss you. Come on. Let's go back to the room, instead of focusing on making my work messy if you're not there." Hyungtae replied honestly. He doesn't really know what drama Aera is doing. But it's not bad either when else you can hear the word love from her.

"Yeah yeah.. let's get out of here. It's really hot." Aera glanced and showed her smirk at the two girls. Look who wins now, Aera thought.

The two of them finally really left. After saying the annoying words to be stuffed on the two girls earlier. But Aera found it strange. Hyungtae sees herself acting like before instead of being confused and demanding an explanation, he instead followed up with her acting smoothly. Let's just say that Hyungtae wants to have fun as she does, so he join the acting together.

"Ah, I'm so tired, even though I don't come to work." Aera slams her body on the living room sofa. Don't be surprised. No matter how hard you slam on the Hyungtae's sofa house, your body won't hurt, but you will feel addicted because the sofa feels very soft and bounces lightly, like a trampoline. "Take off the coat first, you've been like an overtime for two days." Hyungtae sat beside Aera lying down.

"I'm really tired. Even though I don't do anything, but I follow wherever you go. And it's more tiring than you think." Said Aera defended herself. Besides, why can't she just be given a job at the office. It will be more useful than just being Hyungtae's tail wherever he goes.

"Okay, princess, I admit your hard work that accompanied me all day. Look... you're so tired, but your face is still beautiful." Hyungtae tried to persuade Aera not to nag further. After all, this is his request, so Aera had to follow him everywhere. Hyungtae's hand spontaneously helped Aera take off the coat that still attached to her body when Aera had just sat down.

"You liar, my face is definitely crumpled." Aera is happy to hear Hyungtae's praise, but she realized that Hyungtae only wanted to please her ears. "No, you're still beautiful. You do whatever it takes, but you always look beautiful." Hyungtae replied again, he really wanted to convince Aera that his compliment is sincere and not made up. Look!!, her chubby cheeks and bright brown eyes kept haunting his mind even though Aera doesn't within his range of vision.

"Really? Am I beautiful?" finally Aera properly responded to Hyungtae's sincere compliment. His eyes hoped that Hyungtae will say the same answer as before. "Of course. Ah, how beautiful," replied Hyungtae while fixing his sitting position so he is facing Aera. Then his hands lightly pinched both cheeks in exasperation. Why today Aera looks like a weak girl that makes him want to protect her.

Momentarily Aera's heart beat faster than usual when Hyungtae is sweet to her and pinched her cheek affectionately. Even though it's not uncommon for Hyungtae to carelessly touch Aera's hands, she shouldn't be like this. Right! She should have gotten used to his seduction.

'No, Aera. You can't lose. Stop your stupid thoughts'. Aera scolded herself in her mind. She insisted on not blushing, but her body could not lie. Her cheeks must be blushing now because Aera felt her cheeks feel so hot. As a result, she immediately released herself and stood up and said goodbye to go to her room because she felt she needed to rest.

That's right. She had to run away before Hyungtae realized her blush. If, Hyungtae finds out what embarrassing things Aera will face. It's very dangerous. Her heart is too weak, and she has to train herself so that she doesn't get carried away easily in the future. Don't let her be fooled by men's ragged seductions, especially a man like Hyungtae.

"Ah, damn it. I almost got caught. Why should I blush like that? So many people say I'm beautiful, I should be used to it, but why is it different this time." Aera smacked in front of the mirror, patting her cheeks to make the redness disappear immediately. It's impossible for Aera to like a man easily like this. After this, she won't be easy on Hyungtae. She had to prepare a shield so that Hyungtae wouldn't go his own way.

After being satisfied with the thoughts in her head, Aera decided to take a shower and wash her mind to be fresher and not think about stupid things anymore.

Elsewhere, Hyungtae is humming happily, which shows that he is happy. He is also confused about the reason. But he already suspected that he is happy because of the girl at his house.

It's so funny, he called dear even though Aera happily wrapped her arms around Hyungtae's arm. All of that seemed to erase the memory that, Hyungtae is often beaten by Aera. Even though he knew there must be a reason Aera do those sweet things to him. It doesn't irritate him at all. Aera is acting or whatever, the important thing is that Hyungtae is now feeling happy.

Soon he also decided to clean up and get some rest, because the two of them had already eaten dinner when they got home from work earlier. The joy is the stomach is full, and the heart is also cheerful. Hyungtae is really going to have sweet dreams tonight, or maybe he might even have trouble sleeping because he's busy thinking about someone.
