@(♤w) kim jaejoong /carefully takes the book
Extremely deep thought makes my brain hurt.
/looks at the covers, reading the description
I think I watched the movie based on the book once, but I hardly remember anything about it
/rubs off some of the dust before handing it back
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber want some recommendations?
/chuckles and slides my finger across the spines of the books
/stops my finger at a particular book
I like this book
a wrinkle in time.
I read it when I was way younger but it still is a good read. it's deeper than it seems of you ponder about it at night
/laughs
/takes out the book and passes it to you
@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oops.
/shrugs
You have quite a collection.
/watches the dust settle as I walk toward the bookshelf
I don't read as much as I'd like to, actually
/begins to scan the spines
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /continues coughing and puts down the duster
you could've reminded me earlier
/laughs
whatever, come looks at my books!
what books do you usually read?
@(♤w) kim jaejoong /stays back near the door.
It doesn't look too bad. It probably wouldn't take that long to clean.
/tilts my head and watches as you dust
Um... You should probably wear a face mask before trying to clean it though
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber they could. except it's kinda dusty in here.
i come up here to keep books that i have already read but i never bother to clean it up
so it would probably not be suitable for humans here
/laughs and takes a duster to dust my bookshelf
/ends up coughing as i breathe in some dust
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber well this conversation is turning out sad
/gives a dry chuckle
what's there to be sorry about. you're just looking around. want a house tour?
/laughs
@(♤w) kim jaejoong / laughs softly
I'm not popular, but thanks for thinking that, I guess.
/finishes my tea
I'm not very experienced in the relationship department either...
/glances around the kitchen
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /laughs
yeah I thought they were getting married soon but I haven't heard from them in quite some time
/blinks
uh... I don't know? aren't you pretty popular? most popular people aren't into monogamous relationships?
/thinks for a while
or maybe that's just the people I know
@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oh.
/ nods
Yeah, that would be weird.
/ shrugs
I guess that's the kind of stuff people confess when they're drunk though. Last I heard, they're happily engaged and want to marry soon, but it's been a while since I've spoken with either one.
/bites my bottom lip and furrows my eyebrows
Do you think I'm the kind of person who would be a two-timer?
@(♤w) kim jaejoong We try not to tell people because he doesn't want the employees to think I get special treatment.
/quietly drinks my tea for a moment
But...
/tilts my head
What did you think was going on between us?
/looks innocent
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /nods in interest
ohhhh... your brother
I see
/laughs
I almost thought he...
/chuckles
come to think of it you guys look a little like each other
@(♤w) kim jaejoong Uh...
/tries to think of something to talk about
Oh yeah, about Donghae-
/tries to think of the best way to say it
We don't live together, but he comes to my place sometimes.
/sips tea
He's my older brother
/mumbles
@(♤w) kim jaejoong I don't think I can sleep right now.
/looks into my cup
Too much going on in my head and with my body...
/drinks more tea
Would you mind if we just talk for a while?
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber hey it's fine
/laughs
it's partially my fault anyway
/sips at my tea
oh you're feeling better. good.
/smiles
/finishes my tea
/walks over to the basin to wash my cup
you should get some rest too
@(♤w) kim jaejoong Thanks
/sits across from you
And again, I'm sorry about all this
/takes a small sip of the tea
I am starting to feel a little better though
/mumbles
Even though I got pretty dizzy earlier...
/drinks some more of the tea
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /walks back to the kitchen to finish making the tea
/sits at the island in the kitchen and sips my own cup of tea after placing yours on the other side of the island
/looks up when I hear footsteps
oh you're done.
your tea
/points to the cup I made for you
@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oh...
/ sighs in relief
Okay. I'll try to hurry up.
/slowly stands back up again and turns the water back on so I can rinse off
/gets out of the shower, finds a towel and dries off
/ checks my clothes to see if anything is clean enough to put back on before retrieving the clothes from outside the door
/wears my shorts and underwear and your tank and shirt
/makes my way to the kitchen with damp hair
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber what? I'm just leaving the clothes here
/laughs
what? you're embarrassed?
/puts the clothes down
you can come to the kitchen after you're done
I made some chamomile tea
@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber oh oh I forgot to get the clothes
/scratches my jaw
/walks up to my room to get a tank top and a tee
er I guess this is okay
/walks to the bathroom to leave the stuff in front of the door
