Today Baby didn't hesitate to walk around the house just as she woke up, with a bird's nest on her head, barely having washed her face or brushed her teeth. She was wearing the same clothes she had on after ruining her plans to spend some quality time with me.
On the other hand, I was dressed very nicely because today was a special day for me, she told me I looked very good and that my makeup was perfect but she was still there eating her cereal and letting the milk drip down her face... having table manners was not on her list of things to do today.
"Why are you like this today?" I finally decided to ask.
"This beautiful woman here, that's what she looks like when you're not around," she said proudly.
- So... why do I have the pleasure of continuing to see you like this even though you've already gotten up?
- I'm not a princess, Yoongi. I think you were dazzled by the polite part of me, the part that doesn't want to show you its shortcomings.
- And out of all the days... you had to choose today? - she only used the back of her hand to make the cereal with milk spill dangerously in my direction since I had barely tasted it.
Baby went into the bathroom and walked upstairs in a towel. Some time later she returned with a large backpack in her hands, looking completely different from how she had looked a few minutes before, so beautiful that I was speechless.
She picked up her mess and left, I followed her like a puppy as she strode along the partially frozen road.
We walked a long distance in just a few minutes, but she didn't stop until we reached the common areas she had mentioned earlier. Baby took a basket and began selecting the clothes inside her backpack.
Since there were no other users besides us, she used several machines with the different washing programs needed for each pile of used clothes she brought with her.
She waited a few minutes to make sure everything was working properly before deciding to go to the store. She went inside, greeted the elderly lady, thanked her for helping with dinner last night, and walked through the aisles to buy a few things.
I simply took the newspaper and waited for her at the checkout, where the woman struck up a conversation with me. I paid for everything, and Baika didn't argue with me about it, not with the woman there. She was very happy to see her with the young man she liked and wanted to cook for; apparently, she had planned several things to surprise me. She was also commenting on how attentive Baby had been to her since she arrived.
My princess was a little embarrassed about what she told me, because she'd been trying to ignore me ever since I told her to freshen up properly... I know I'm a little nervous today because it's the first time I'm not with the group for our new album launch. We went back to the laundromat to wait for the first machine to finish.
- Baby... I'm sorry... today is the launch of our work and I realize that not being with the guys is making me uneasy - I told her.
- And instead of telling me that it was so important to you, you decided to make me responsible for all your frustrations.... Yoongi, I can't imagine how you feel if you don't tell me. From my point of view, you simply behaved unfairly, because I didn't do anything wrong.
"I realized... but I thought you knew, that our album comes out today," I said, scratching the back of my neck.
- I knew about the launch... but since you didn't say a word, I couldn't guess how you feel. Your friends have told me a million times not to miss the interview, what they're going to wear, and that they miss you... I was just having something to eat, to have a quiet breakfast.
Baby's voice was soft and she looked around before coming closer and whispering the following in my ear.
"You're so lucky she's in love with you; someone else in your place would still be pulling cereal out of their head depending on how rude you were." I understood.
- I'm not doing you any good, Baby... but a part of me wants to taste your love... Can you truly love me? The... real Min Yoongy?
"Ask for whatever you want, I'll do what I think is right, whatever it is. Maybe you were expecting something else... Do you want to hear me promise you the moon? The only thing I have to offer you is my truth... I want to take care of you, learn to make you smile, and trust you... That's my definition of true love."
Baby's words left me with a warm feeling inside and terrified me at the same time; the only thing I could think about after those words was... how to make it possible?
"Maybe I should punish you, princess... it's so easy for me to take everything from you, if the only condition is that I ask for it... Baby, are you really going to let me cross that line? It's not going to be a walk in the park for you," I advised her.
- Yoongi... I've already thought about it... I decided it myself... I can't blame you for being yourself or for not feeling the same... I'm telling you that you can have me.
She's definitely not a princess, she's a terrorist coming after me. What am I supposed to do? Is it the right thing to do? Just take whatever I want from her?
True love... that's what I always longed for... and then... here I am with this young woman. I thought she was a pretty girl, like the ones my friends like. But this one is dangerous even for me. Baika had poisoned everything.
I wanted to hug her, but she stepped aside... when I needed to hide my little heart from her, she already knew where I had hidden it before I had a chance to deceive her; Baby fulfilled my desires without having to ask what I wanted, she provokes me with her talent, makes me die for the taste of her food and her company, lets me be and says words that drive me crazy... Baika is dangerous for me, because I can't let her go.
How can I get ready to love her? I don't want to let her go.
