Chasing Rainbows

16. Whirlwind

After that morning in Bin's family's house, Bin and Yejin went home to Bin's apartment. Yejin still hadn't faced Bin's parents after last night in the hotel since they had to leave for his dad's routine check up at the hospital. They  dropped by Hali and Choi's house to get her luggage first and the couple invited them for dinner that Monday night. 

At Bin's apartment, Yejin couldn't help but admire Bin's sleek yet elegant flat. Indeed, the abode of a bachelor. They haven't discussed yet whether they will stay in his flat. 

Being a girl who loves flowers, Yejin couldn't help but smile at what could possibly Bin's reaction be if ever he permits her to unleash her interior designing prowess. Her eyes wandered around, imagining the things that she'd want to place in those spaces in that flat. As she was doing that, she felt his strong arms enveloped her from behind. 

"Why are you smiling, love?" Bin said, noticing her smile.

"Nothing love..." She faced him with her eye-smile.

"Why? Is there something wrong with my flat?" 

"Nothing love, it's very Bin...Hmm..would you like me to put some Yejin in this?"

Bin frowned. "Hmm.."

She pouted her lips and turned her back from him. "It's okay, if you don't like."

Before she could walk away, he pulled her with a back hug again. "Okay love, you can re-design it.."

She was not convinced. "It's okay, let's just leave it like this."

 He didn't say a word, but instead kissed her in her shoulder. "I missed you love..."

"Love...I think I'm stinky..."  Though she likes what he's doing, Yejin felt uncomfortable.

Bin continued what he was doing, now kissing her even more passionately. "Hmmm...you still smell good love..."

"I wanna shower..." It was all that she can say. 

Bin now turned her around to face him and crashed his lips into her... "Okay..." Bin continued to kiss her and was able to move her until the bathroom door.. She managed to release from him and ran inside, trying to tease him. Laughing, he followed her in the bathroom, and what came next was a steamy shower, and they ended up making love in Bin's bed.

Bin was awakened by the warm breath that tickled his ears. It was Yejin's, smelling his hair. He smiled. "Love, what do you want..."

"I'm hungry love.."

Bin looked to his bedside clock. It was almost 1 PM. He looked at her and touched her cheek, rubbing it with his thumb gently. She just seemed to glow. "What do you want for lunch?" 

Before Yejin could even answer, his phone rang. Eomeoni.

"Yeoboseyo eomeoni"

"Son? Our staff said you already left our house. Are you in your flat?"

"Yes, eomeoni, we're here."

"Okay, we'll drop by, we came from a restaurant and we're bringing you lunch. We're on our way."

Before he could refuse, she ended the call. She must be with his father. 

"Love?"

"Let's prepare love, my parents are dropping by. Eomeoni said she's bringing lunch."

Yejin got tensed. She still didn't know his parents' reaction towards her and their marriage. Bin said that he just told his mom but not his dad yet. She got up and Bin handed her her clothes he got from her luggage. Just as she finished applying some powder and lip tint, the doorbell rang. She ran to the living room and Bin opened the door. Though she was a little bit nervous, she felt more secured now, with Bin's presence.
