Life is Much Better When (1/1)
The big house feels much warmer even though winter is starting to peek in during early December and Suho is starting to plan on decorating the house with seasonal adornments and Seohyun's wedding would be in another week and everything's looking fine in his eyes. Baekhyun is starting to work again and is also looking healthier as Chen checks up on Baekhyun closely. The young man is solely concentrating on his restaurant but at the same time, Chen monitors his lover and they have been wonderfully going out and are being intimate with each other.Sehun comes back to the big house with a tired look on his face and Suho curiously stares at the young man."What happened? Why do you look like that?" Suho asks."It'll be the first day of cycle so I won't be coming out from my room starting tonight and ask ajumma to put my meal in the fridge, I will warm it myself." The young man say making Suho nod."Yeah... okay... call me if you need anything, okay?" The young man says as he looks at the maid whom they hired to take care of the house with a smile."First days will always be like that... it's normal." The small young man says making the maid smile and start to prepare some medication and soothing ointments for Sehun.After Sehun, Baekhyun also comes back and walks into the door and Suho looks at the pretty young man with knitted brows; it is still too early for Baekhyun to be home if he went out with Chen as they sometimes hang out either in Chen's villa or here in the big house."Hi there... just alone? Where is your escort?" Suho asks while pulling out a piece of decor from the decoration box and Baekhyun walks to Suho's side and looks at the small young man with a small sigh."He has his buddy time with his other chef friends and I let him do that once a month since I know he needs that to release some tension and have more booze than the usual that he has whenever he's with me." The pretty young man says making Suho laugh a little. Kris is the same too as the tall young man has his buddy time with Eli and Kevin when they hang out together."I just know what you mean by that." Suho says and Baekhyun starts to help Suho with decorating the tree and the holiday mood has already started in the living area."Did you see Sehun come in? I thought he went back first." The pretty young man asks."He did come home and is hibernating in his room since he will be in his cycle tomorrow." The small young man answers."Oh... right... he always has his cycle after me and then it will be yours next week, right?" Baekhyun asks making Suho nod."Yeah... it would be a problem since I need to attend Seohyun's wedding in my woman form; I need to think about what I should wear " The small young man says making Baekhyun smile."Then shall we go shopping tomorrow? I have nothing on my schedule tomorrow since my manager will be calling in sick." Baekhyun says making Suho look at cousin with a big smile on his face."Really? I should wear a nice and simple dress since they are having it in daylight and in an indoor garden chapel at the Seoul City Center." The small young man says."Hmmmmm, you have lots of options to choose from then." The pretty young man says making Suho smile with satisfaction."Then where shall we go?" The small young man asks."We shall go to one particular boutique, I will request for them to open up exclusively just for us since you need to try clothes on while you are still in your man form. " Baekhyun says making Suho sigh."I will not try them on... I'll just choose a size on the dress that I want." The small young man says making Baekhyun laugh and agree with what the pretty young man said. Hunah can only come out from her room at night after hours of experiencing pain. It's finally over and she feels like she wants to have a hot meal and she turns her head to look at the clock at the kitchen wall and then sighs while stepping into the kitchen without noticing that there are a few pairs of eyes looking at her."Feeling better?" A voice asks making the young woman startled and look straight to the source of the voice making the young woman gasp after seeing that there are a few people looking at her including the person that she doesn't want to see. She's still in her pajamas with her long uncombed hair that is all over place but the tall dark skinned young man is looking at her with a wide smile on his face."You look awful Hunah." The tall dark skinned young man says making the young woman blush and huff a little."Who told you that you could say that to me?" The young woman says making Kai laugh a little."I have been saying that to you for like half of your life actually... we've been friends since middle school, remember?" The tall young man teases making Hunah pout and brush her hair with her hands and take one of the rubber bands in the kitchen and use it to tie her hair up high showing how annoyed she is. Kai just laughs and walks to the young woman's side and lets his elder brother discuss about the end of the year party that will be held here in the big house with Suho; they are also planning for it to be a house warming party and are thinking about inviting everyone that they know including their close relatives."What are you doing here?" Hunah asks."Working." Kai replies while leaning his back onto the kitchen cabinet and looking at Hunah who's warming up the food and not looking at the tall young man."It's Saturday." The young woman says making Kai smile while taking a piece of broccoli from the young woman's plate after Hunah warms it up for just a few minutes."I work on Saturdays too, you didn't know? Our cousin is really hardworking." The tall young man says while looking at Suho who is talking to his elder brother, Minho."Did you just arrive?" The young woman asks."Not really... I think about 45 minutes ago and I thought you wouldn't be coming out from your room today, Jun hyung said that you are in the first day of your cycle... you used to be holed up in the bed for two days." The tall young man says making Hunah heave out a small sigh."I took some supplements for the pain and I was hungry." The young woman says making Kai nod and sit down just beside Hunah making the young woman look at his cousin, also his best friend, with an annoyed look."I thought you were working." Hunah says making Kai chuckle a little."I am working." The tall young man says with a small laugh and Hunah just doesn't feel amused by it but at the same time, she feels a little bit flustered seeing the man that she likes coming for the first time here in the new house and they're just talking normally with each other.The young woman remembers the first time her heart beat really fast when Kai started treating him nicely and just the close presence of her best friend would make her heart thump so loud and fast in her chest and sometimes, it makes Hunah worried that the tall young man might hear it."Are you bringing someone to the party?" The tall young man asks while staring at Hunah's face."No one, why?" Hunah says while looking at the tall young man and Kai smiles at her answer."Nothing... just asking." The tall young man says making Hunah look at her best friend's face with curiosity."You will be attending Seohyun noona's wedding I presume, too bad that she'll finally be married huh... I thought you said that you were going to win her heart, like what... three years ago?" Hunah teases a bit making the tall young man nod and sigh a little."It was already too late when I stepped into the company... she already belongs to someone else and I could not change her mind even though I tried very hard to find Eli hyung's weaknesses but... there is none... he's just an amazing man and I was hoping that I could treat my future girlfriend just like how he treats Seohyun noona." Kai says making the young woman huff a little."Really? And here I thought that all they do was fight with each other." Hunah says as she finishes her meal and puts away the dirty dishes and washes it."You know... even though you are a woman right now, nothing changed in your personality... still the same, I wonder if you could be more graceful like Seohyun noona and take off the cool mask from your face every once in a while." The tall young man says making Hunah annoyingly look at Kai."I thought you knew me better than anyone else... you know I'm not like that, it's true that I am in my woman form right now but I'm still Oh Sehun... understand that." The young woman says a little bit louder than usual making both Suho and Minho look at the two distant cousins who are always bickering when they see one another."Guys... that is enough and Kai, I thought we are working; you need to take note of everything that we are discussing here." Minho tells his little brother."I put a recording device there and I will listen to it later, it's been a while since I saw Hunah so I wanted to spend my time with her tonight." The tall young man says making Minho speechless and he could only look at his younger brother and Suho could just sigh."It's the first day of her cycle... don't bully her, okay... Hunah-yah... take Kai with you, he's being much too hyper today and I could not concentrate while seeing him like that." The small young man says making the young woman gasp."To my room? What are you talking about hyung? I'm a woman right now and he can't come to my room and see all my girly stuff." Hunah protests and Suho looks at his cousin with a small sigh."You guys have been best friends for so long that I could not remember when and he has been coming in and out of your room since then and he has been playing in your room not only when you are a man but also when you are a woman... you do remember that, don't you? Or should I remind you every detail of it?" Suho asks making Hunah's eyes widen and she shakes her head."Good then, compromise a little, and Kai-yah... again, don't bully her too much." The small young man says making Kai nod with a wide smile on his face."Roger hyung! Let's go Hunah... I can't wait to see your room." The tall young man says making Hunah annoyed and swear to god that she's going to throw the tall young man outside if Kai dares to touch her girly stuff.They both proceed to Hunah's room and Kai curiously looks around it."Your new room seems a little bit similar with the old room that you had when you were still in university." The tall young man says making Hunah look at her best friend with knitted brows."You remember how my room looked like?" The young woman asks while walking to the closet room and takes a few clothes for changing as she wants to take a bath and spend the longest time in there which is what she always does when she's on her first day in woman form."Of course I do... I have been in your room for the longest time since I could remember... has anyone come in here aside from me?" The tall young man asks making Hunah knit her brows again by the question."There are a few." Hunah says making the tall young man stare at Hunah with a bitter look on his face."You bring other people to your room? Who are they? I thought you still don't have a boyfriend?" The tall young man asks making Hunah laugh a little since she misunderstood the question that Kai asked earlier."Oh you mean other people who've come in here except family members, don't you? Nope, none... I want to bring my boyfriend but unfortunately, I still don't have one." The young woman says making Kai feel a little bit better and walk closer to the young woman."Why do you still not have a boyfriend? I remember that there were a
