Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Hypnotized

Fahami's POV:

Next morning, after waking up, I found myself engulfed in Taesung's embrace. My head hidden in his chest, our arms wrapped around each other, our legs tangled together. I could hear the rhythmic beats of this beautiful Adonis's heart. It was so calming and peaceful, I decided it was my favorite sound from today.

Suddenly I remembered all the incidents from last night. His scars, story of each scar, my breaking down, his kiss.

' Oh my God! Taesung kissed me.'

I didn't know why but his kissing didn't bother me that much as I expected. In fact, it was the opposite of bothering. It felt good. Wired.

' I am overthinking.'

Besides, he just kissed me on my forehead. Kissing on forehead considered as an act of fondness. Right? And of course, we were fond of each other.

' His scars'.

I snaked my hand around his waist to reach to his back. I traced every scar, every proof of the tortures he had gone through. Thankfully, they were on his back. Thankfully, he didn't have to see them every time he looked into the mirror. They were a part of his past, dark past. And I would make damn sure that he forgets those dark days.

God! Now it wasn't a mystery to me why he acted like that in the beginning. Trusting easily, was not in his nature. When people fought a lot to survive in this cruel world, suspicion came naturally.

I sighed.

I couldn't concentrate on my thoughts for longer because something sweet was hitting my nose. As I took each breath, I could smell a scent. He had an amazing smell. I couldn't describe how it felt. I inhaled slowly. His smell was intoxicating. I snuggled more in his chest.

And suddenly his hand started stroking my hair.

' Oh Gosh! He startled me.'

He sensed that I jumped a bit. That earned me a chuckle from him. I slowly looked up and found him staring at me. There was a beautiful smile curving his lips. He looked at me in a way that made feel butterflies in my stomach. He kinda looked, happy. It was weird, considering our current situation. I meant, he just told me about his past. I cried like a crybaby after hearing his story and he looked perfectly alright, in fact he was looking happy.

"Good morning, Noona." He said in a deep, raspy morning voice.

He was still staring at me and stroking my hair. The small happy smile, the shine in his eyes and his breathtaking beautiful face, oh God! I was hypnotized. My throat felt so tight, I couldn't reply to his greetings.

' What's wrong with me? Am I going insane or something?'

He decided to break the awkward silence, clearing his throat, “Did you sleep well?”

Did I? Yes, I did. It was a peaceful sleep. I didn't have any nightmare, heck, I didn't even have any dream. It was a peaceful silence.

I simply nodded, "Did you have any nightmare last night?"

Now he gave his dazzling smile. "No, I told you, remember? My nightmares are afraid of you. I never have one when you are around."

I smiled, "That's good. Seems like your nightmares know how much protective I am when it comes to you, eh?" I wiggled my brows. He gave me a sweet chuckle.

I stared at his smiling face. How could someone hurt a boy like Taesung? He was so, amazing. Any parent would have been proud of him. How could someone be so cruel? Every scar just told me how cruel that man was. I swore, if I ever found out that bastard, I would kill him.

That reminded me, where was his mother? He had a sister too. Where are they? Also, what happened to his father? Are his mother and sister still living with that psychopath? Oh, God!! They might be in danger.

"Umm, Taesung?"

"Hmm?" He looked so happy like he was in peace, oh God, how would I ask him now?

He raised a brow. I shook my head, deciding to ask him later about his family.

"What time is it?" I asked him.

"I don't know exactly." He looked around to find our cell phones, maybe, since there wasn't a wall clock in my room.

"Then we should get up now. I asked the restaurant owner for one day leave. Didn't ask for two days. Besides, I am not planning on ditching my class."

He sighed and said, "Okay."

And suddenly he came closer to me, placed a sweet kiss on my forehead and got up. Without sparing me a glance, he walked out of the room.

' What. Did. Just. Happened?'

He just kissed me again. Again! I was not going to freak out. No, absolutely not. What was wrong with him, and what was wrong with me? I was surprised, noticing his behavior, but I was angry at myself. Because the spot where his lips touched was tingling, wanting more to have.

' Damn you pervert, he is like a brother to you.'

But I was blushing. Why the hell was I blushing?

"Noona, you are really going to be late if you don't get up now. " Taesung yelled from the kitchen.

"Y-yeah, c-coming." I sounded like a scary cat.

' Why the hell was I mumbling? And I am a tigress, not a cat. Stop mewling, you idiot. He also kissed you last night.'

Yes, he did. But, there was a moment. It was normal then. He was sharing his past, I was crying a river after knowing his past, so it was normal. But what happened in the morning? What was the moment? Since when he kissed me like it was a day-to-day normal thing for us?

"Noona?" He yelled again.

I cleared my throat, "Coming."

I couldn't concentrate on the class a bit. A single bit! All I could think about was his past, his stories and his kisses. I wasn't a teenager, not that it was the first time someone kissed me or touched me. Though it wasn't the first time, it was the first time someone kissed me on the forehead since Roy never liked to kiss me like that. All we did was, when we were horny, we just stripped each other and banged. Nothing sweet or emotional or loving happened between us.

' Taesung is like a brother to you, moron.'

My subconscious mind was true. I shouldn't have compared Taesung to Roy. Roy was my boyfriend more like a fuckbuddy. Taesung was... Taesung.

"Bitch, are you listening?" Eunjin's outburst pulled me out of my zoned out situation.

"What?" I looked like an idiot, I was 100% sure.

She looked at me suspiciously, then shook her head in disappointment. "I said, Hynsu wants to meet with you after the class."

' Shit.'
