The tiny ray of sunlight which peaked through the small space between the curtain hit her eyes, causing her to groan lightly.
She rubbed her eyes before forcing it open. She looked at the other side of the bed and realized Elvis was not there.She looked at the time on her phone, and it was just seven.
She pursed her lips and pressed a bottom next to the bed stand. A maid came inside the room."Good morning madam". The maid greeted. Nari nods her head as she yawns.
"Where's my husband?". Nari asked.
"He went out for a run, are you ready to have breakfast?".
"I'll go take a bath first". Nari mumbled. "I will take my leave then..".
Nari nodded and waved her hand. The maid bowed and took few steps back before turning around and left the room.
Nari stood up from the bed and entered the bathroom to freshen up. She was extremely tired without knowing why she was.
She did not have any rough night with Elvis as usual because he was angry about something she did not know about and wishes to know.
She first brush her teeth before stepping into the bathtub to take a hot bath.
She lay in the bathtub with her eyes closed, letting the hot water relax her tensed muscles.
She stayed like that for a while before she finally took her bath. She stepped out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe. She entered the dressing room and took a shirt and shorts which belonged to Elvis, she needed to wear something comfortable and that was Elvis' clothes, hers are all tight and even the once which are slightly baggy before, were becoming rather tight.
She walked out of the dressing room with the clothes on her hand and placed it on the bed. She stood in front of the dressing mirror and took off the bathrobe.
She looked at her reflection on the mirror and gasped in shock.
She had put on so much weight, she looked slightly chubby, and her stomach was looking rather swollen.
She frowned as she stared at herself in disgust.
She remembered she had been eating quite a lot recently which was rather strange but she just could not resist the temptation of always having something in her mouth.
She touched her face feeling the fat on her face, though it was not that obvious in her face but her body.
"Was this the reason I wasn't invited for the event". She remembered the Joe's launching event, she felt bittered about the fact that she was not present, no she was not invited but rather a unrecognised actress was.
She bit her lips angrily staring at her reflection. Her eyes went down to her slightly bulging stomach again, she frowned placing her hand on it.
"Don't tell me I'm adding weight because of this thing". Her jaw clenched as she thought about it.
The door suddenly swung open, revealing Elvis.
His shirt was off, hanging on his shoulder as he entered the room.
His gaze turned to the disrobed Nari, staring at him through mirror without turning around. She did not look too happy.
Elvis walked to her worried why she looked down.
He stood behind her, slipping his hand around her waist, pressing her back against him and leaning his head on her shoulder.
"Good morning.." He pecked her neck and looked at her face on the mirror, his head still on her shoulder.
"What's wrong?". He asked, his voice low and rough, his brows furrowed as he waited for an answer.
Nari shook her head, holding his hand making attempt to tear off his hold.
He was sweaty and she just took a shower, she did not want his sweat to be on her.
"Go take a shower, you're sweaty". She groaned as his hands around her waist tightened.
"We should take a shower together". He whined like a baby, and pouted.
Nari rolled her eyes, shaking her head.
"I already took a shower". She pursed her lips seeing Elvis' soft glare on her. "Elvis let go..".
She wanted him to remember what happened at night, when he angrily slept without holding or cuddling her, he took a shower when she went downstairs to get ice and went to bed.
If he was angry about something he should at least let her know what it was, rather than ignoring her, making her feel sad.
Elvis raised his head to her ears.
"I'm sorry". He whispered. Nari raised a brow pretending not know what he was apologizing for.
"About last night, I'm sorry, I should have waited for you to wake up this morning to apologise but I was angry still, so I went for a run to stay calm". He placed small kisses on her neck.
Nari closed her eyes, his kisses sending shivers down her spine.
"Did you really got hit by a ball?". She moaned her question.
Elvis paused, his eyes darkened in anger thinking about Yoonjin hands on his the previous night, Nari did noticed this as her eyes were closed. He knew if he says it was a kid, she would still not believe him since she was asking the question again.
"No, it's something unimportant". Nari eyes opened, she opened her mouth to speak but gets interrupted.
"I don't want to talk about it babe, I just want to focus on you".
With that his hands went down to her front bottom, rubbing on it.
Nari moaned, her head fell back. Her hand slowly found his and held him.
"Elvis, I've already taken a shower". She pleaded to stop even when she was enjoying his touch.
Elvis let out a dry laugh and cupped her chest with his free hand, giving it a light squeeze.
"You'll have to shower again babe".
After a quick morning round, they had a shower again and had breakfast.
They went to the sitting room after breakfast.
Nari was sat on the couch while Elvis was lying down with his head on her thigh. She held her phone on one hand scrolling through it and with the other she stroked his silky brown hair.
The sitting room was comfortably quiet as both were on their phones.
"Oh that reminds me, my grand aunt wants to see you by weekend, will you be free?". Elvis broke the silence.
Nari frowned and looked down from her phone.
"Your grand aunt?". She had not heard anything about him having a grand aunt.
Elvis nodded and continued.
"She's grandfather's sister, she stays abroad and recently came back, so she wants to meet up with you". Elvis smiled.
"Just-me?". A small smile gradually forming on her face.
"No, and Chae".
Her smile immediately dropped.
"Alright, I will be free but what if-..". She pursed her lips.
"She would like you, so you don't have to worry, trust me she's really cool and friendly". Elvis reached out his hand, and traced his finger over her jaw.
Nari smiled and nodded.
"But I also have to make a good impression, I'll get her gifts".
"You can have my card". Elvis poked her cheek and turned his head back to his phone.
Nari smile faded since Elvis was no longer looking at her.
She was not told that the old man has a sister, she thought she was done with the introduction to his family and everything but she wasn't.
She sigh and texted Yein telling her to meet up.
