“Is this your song?” I am in Awe, the beat is so good that it will bless your ears. I am getting what the lyrics are but the song feels like it is soothing one’s soul and his voice is angelic.
” Yes, it’s one of the songs from my new album.” He said proudly and I can see why he is so proud of himself. He is a gifted artist with a melodious voice.
” Wow! I love this song, I am not getting the lyrics but it’s truly soothing my soul and your voice, oh my God! You are a gifted artist with the best voice.” I complimented him with a big grin turning to his side. He matched my grin but I am unable to see his face because he is driving.
” Thanks! Practice made me this big. Don’t you want to know the song name?” He asked with a smirk.
” Umm, what is it?” Confusion laced my tone.
” One night.” He uttered only two words, making me more confused.
” One Night?” I asked.
” Yes, the song title is one night and it is inspired by our night.” He said looking at me with intensity in his eyes, making me blush furiously.
” Oh!”
I don’t know what more to say, I am shying away because I remembered what we did that night and now. I am not the type to be shy but with Jeon, I am becoming a new person.
” Yes and when we get back to the hotel I will show the song with English lyrics. Okay? He said before speeding up the car to our destination.
” Okay, How much more time to reach the diner?” I asked impatiently.
” We are just five minutes away from it.” He answered with a chuckle.
” I hope those five minutes will be gone like five seconds,” I grumbled out because of tye hunger.
” Don’t worry, I will take you to the diner in five seconds.” He said again speeding up the car.
We entered a small town, most of the shops and houses don’t have lights on. It’s so late in the night and I doubt the diner is still open.
” Do you think that the diner is still open?” I questioned.
” I hope it is still open.” He answered turning to the left side to enter a lane.
” If it is not open then I will die of hunger.” I groaned holding my head with my hands.
” shhh, It will never happen so think positive.” He shushed me.
My head is still in between my arms and I’m not looking outside of the car because I’m tired of seeing nothing other than darkness. I just want to eat those spicy soupy noodles.
” Are we there yet?” I groaned.
” Yes, we will be in a second.” He answered before stopping the car and switching off the engine. Thankfully the diner is open and the open sign is still on.
” Come, let’s go!” He said removing his seat belt and moving towards me to remove mine too.
” Thanks!” I kissed his cheek, opened the door, and got down from the car.
We were in front of the Chinese Korean diner which is small and cozy looking from the outside. I hope it is as cozy as it is on the inside as it is from the outside then the noodles will taste much better.
We entered the diner holding each other’s hand, pushed the door to get in and the bell chimed indicating the owners that someone had entered. There is no one in the diner, it is empty and my face fell on the thought that we are not going to eat.
” There is no one here,” I stated with a pout looking at him.
” Wait for a second baby.” He said making my stomach fill with butterflies. I like the word baby from his mouth. He moved towards the counter and knocked on the counter calling out to the owners.
” Hello! Madam? Sir?” He called out and we heard footsteps approaching us and I started dancing inside hoping to sate my hunger. Hungry when you are pregnant is so problematic.
” Hello, gentleman! How can I help you?” An old man comes from inside asking what we want.
” We are here to eat some noodles, are you still open?” Jeon asked, making me anxious about the old man’s answer.
” Sorry, young man but we are closed.” He replied, tears gathered in my eyes ready to fall but I sniffed not wanting to cry for noodles in front of jeon and the owner.
” Can you please make some for my girlfriend here? We were driving from Palm springs.” Jeon said to the owner and he addressed me as a girlfriend! My heart skipped a beat and my ears and cheeks turned hot and I tried to stop my big grin, but the owner is not listening to him instead asking us to leave so he can close the diner.
” Sorry, but we are closed and please come tomorrow early.” He turned to go inside.
“I am sorry for the inconvenience but my girlfriend is pregnant and she is craving noodles right now, she is hungry too. Please, sir! I will pay you to double the amount.” Awww! He is pleading for me, I sniffed again to stop the tears.
“As I said, young man! That….” He got cut off in the middle by someone who called his name coming from the back.
” Henry!” We heard a feminine voice calling and the old man’s name was Henry.
“Rosie?” He called out to the lady who came forward. They both look in their 70’s and if I’m right they seem like wife and husband and they were still very much in love with each other. She glared at him, making him pout at her cutely.
“What? I don’t want you to overwork, that’s it.” He said, still pouting at her.
” How could you still ask them to leave when you heard that his girlfriend is pregnant and hungry!” She glared at him nodding at him like she is disappointed in him.
” I am sorry baby.” He apologized moving towards her but she took her steps backward stopping him with her raised hand.
” Hi! What do you want to eat, sweetie!” The lady asked, looking at me with a warm smile.
” umm, sorry for the inconvenience but I am craving some medium spicy and soupy noodles,” I told her guiltily, mirroring her smile.
” Okay, and you gentleman!” She asked jeon too and he ordered the same as mine.
” You heard, Henry! now go and get their orders.” She said to him narrowing her eyes making him stomp his feet before leaving before grumbling okay.
” He is such a child sometimes, don’t mind him,” Rosie said to us with a chuckle ushering us to the seats.
” They were so cute, right?” I asked Jeon, who had a smile on his face.
” Yes, and they still love each other madly.” He said looking at me with the same emotion in his eyes which I am still avoiding but maybe one day I will gladly accept it and reciprocate it freely.
