Kiss My Wounds
"Preview"⁰¹
Sunlight poured through the window, bathing the room in a golden warmth that wrapped around everything like a cozy blanket.
Inside the room sat a woman, reading.
The door swung open, and a young man entered with slumped shoulders, collapsing onto the bed.
The said man just groaned into the pillow.
Another teen entered, perhaps 15.
Dian-jia
Don't worry about him.
Dian-jia
Little Prince just got dumped~
The other raised his head.
Dian-jia
You should honestly be grateful. He was such a scumba-
Jungwon
Grandma... I loved him.
He was cut off once again by his grandmother.
She came near the bed and gently eased him into her arms.
Dong-eun
Jungwon, what is it that made you fall in love with him?
Jungwon
Well... he was cool, handsome and-
The other simply rolled his eyes.
Dong-eun
Come here, you little fox.
She patted the bed and sat him down next to her.
Dong-eun
You like the idea of love.
Dong-eun
What you had wasn't love, sweetheart.
Dong-eun
Love~ is honestly something you can't explain.
Dong-eun
You just love someone but you don't know why. You can probably say, "Oh, I love her humour, his kindness", and whatnot, but you truly can't explain why.
Dong-eun
Because you will love the person's everything- their beauty, perfection and imperfections all the same.
Dong-eun
Do you remember the story of the unsmiling omega?
Dian-jia
Yeah, yeah the omega didn't smile until he met his alpha.
Jungwon
The alpha gave him his reason to smile-
Dian-jia
And then they lived happily ever after with their kids. Yadda yadda whatnot.
Dong-eun
This is the story I tell to your siblings.
Dong-eun
Want to hear the actual story...?
Jungwon
Wait, that isn't a made-up story?
She laughed and shook her head.
Dong-eun
It is taken from a living example.
Jungwon
Please tell us, Grandma.
Dong-eun
Alrighty, listen.
It was around 9 PM at night.
Dian-jia
Jeongguk as in Jeon Jeongguk-
Dian-jia
As in the son of-
Dong-eun
Yes, yes it is him.
Dong-eun
If I hear one more peep out of you, there won't be any story to tell.
The kids motioned to zip their mouths.
Now, Our Alpha was in the after-party of the "Annual Industry Summit".
It's actually an award function.
He received "The Industrial Excellence Award" for 3 years now.
The award winners were the same except for one specific award-
"The Commercial Innovation Award"
This award was claimed by VitaMedica Services.
He was quite impressed by their rise to the top; otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to work with them.
Heck, he hadn't even talked to the company's head. The proposal was promising and profitable.
But he wasn't hooked until he actually saw the man behind the company.
It was 7 PM when he came down after receiving his award, and he heard the announcer speak about the next winner.
He didn't turn around until he heard the CEO speak.
His voice was deep nothing like his face, but still suited him.
Kim Taehyung
I would like to dedicate this award to my friend, my brother- Park Jimin.
Kim Taehyung
Have a fun night.
With that, he left the stage.
The audience was confused. The speech was abrupt. They didn't even clap until he left the stage.
Jeon Jeongguk
(Isn't that...)
Jackson Wang
You ok there, bro?
Jeongguk got out of his trance.
Jeon Jeongguk
Do tell me, are all the prize winners coming to the after-party?
Jackson Wang
Yes, probably?
Jeon Jeongguk
I am willing to take my chances!
Jeon Jeongguk
Thanks, bro!
Jeongguk turned around and dashed.
Jackson Wang
Uhh... You're welcome?
They are going to meet in the next chapter~
Hehe, once again the themes are romance, fluff, comedy(mainly sarcasm), emotional, dark past, angst(idk).
Anyway, have fun and hydrate yourself
"The meet"⁰²
If you are wondering where our protagonist is, well...
He is pretending to eat, I mean, eating at the buffet table.
All the while, looking at a rather dashing man before him.
The man sat at the table, casually savouring his food as if the world around him had faded away, completely absorbed in his own quiet dining experience.
His hair was messier than before, and his cheeks had a slightly pink hue, perhaps due to the light.
You might wonder why Jeongukk noticed this.
Well... he is simply an observant person.
Jackson Wang
You've been zoning out for a while now...
Jackson Wang
You want to talk to Mr. Kim?
Jeon Jeongguk
You know him?
Jackson Wang
Not personally, but we have collaborated once before.
Jackson Wang
Cool guy, but cold.
Jackson Wang
A man of a few words but certainly a perfectionist.
Jackson Wang
But wait—why are you interested in knowing?
Jeon Jeongguk
There's no reason...
Jeon Jeongguk
Stop looking at me like that...
Jeon Jeongguk
Yeah, I'm done here.
And Jeongukk left with red ears.
Jackson Wang
Go talk to him!
He was trying to get away from Jackson while he bumped himself into the dessert table.
Jeon Jeongguk
(⁄ ⁄•⁄-⁄•⁄ ⁄)
Jeon Jeongguk
(So embarrassing...)
He looked around in hopes that no one saw him, only to find someone already looking at him.
Hehe I did make them meet ;)
So it's been a long while since I've been back...
my memory is bad and I think I forgot the plot for my 1st chat story (T^T)
Idk if I can be continuous for my other chat stories, but since this is my fav... you can expect something
"Croissant~"⁰³
The taller man awkwardly scratched his head as the other man gazed at him with a glint in his eyes, which seemed close to curiosity.
Jeon Jeongguk
(How much more embarrassing can it get!)
And to get out of his embarrassment, he turned away hastily, only to collide with the towering cake arrangement, sending it wobbling precariously.
He caught it just in time to prevent it from stumbling forward.
Jeon Jeongguk
(Well... Clearly, I spoke too soon.)
Throughout the entire time, the other man had been watching him.
Let’s just say his curiosity got the better of him.
Kim Taehyung
Whatcha doin?
Kim Taehyung
Oh no, I’m just having a little chat with Jesus over your shoulder.
Jeon Jeongguk
/I deserved that.../
Jeon Jeongguk
Hahaha~ funny.
Kim Taehyung
You still didn't answer my question.
Jeon Jeongguk
What am I doing...?
Jeon Jeongguk
I-I am eating desserts-- yes, that's what I am doing. hehe~
He looked away in embarrassment.
Noting the silence from the other man, he decided to try to make conversation.
[ If anybody knows Kenny song...]
Jeon Jeongguk
Do you want some?
He said, grabbing the first thing he could find - a croissant.
The shorter man appeared to be skeptical about it.
Ultimately, he decided to go ahead and take it.
He said as he took a bite.
[ A/N: couldn't find a better pic :( ]
Jeongukk kept staring at him, and in a daze, he said-
Jeon Jeongguk
You would look more beautiful if you smiled.
His breathing started to become strained.
Jeongukk snapped out of his daze and tried to reach out to him.
However, Taehyung turned away.
Just as he was about to resort, a hand wrapped around his shoulders, effectively shutting him up.
Park Jimin
Haha~ Mr. Kim is drunk. Don't mind him~
Taehyung visibly relaxed.
Kim Taehyung
/No, I am not.../
Park Jimin
Right... now I will take him with me. Thank you for your time.
Park Jimin
Have a great night~
Jeongukk kept watching the two men until they disappeared from his sight.
He could still hear the two men speaking.
Park Jimin
Why did you drink, huh? You know you can't handle alcohol.
Kim Taehyung
I didn't drink!
Park Jimin
Don't lie to me, Kim Taehyung.
Kim Taehyung
I swear I didn't. I just had fruit punch.
Park Jimin
Fruit punch isn't deep red.
Park Jimin
That isn't going to work on me.
Park Jimin
Don't speak to me with that tone, young man.
Kim Taehyung
Yeah, sorry mom.
Jeon Jeongguk
What the fck just happened?
I am literally seeing Jackson everywhere and he is bi!??
oh and shall I change the cover page of this CS?
I do also have another one too >_<
I really want to have a rant session on Lisa and Kiss of Life...
