From Past To Present, I Still Love You 137 I Want To Be An Uncle!

Yoona stared at the boy as if he was a specimen from out of s.p.a.ce before shaking her head. Did he go crazy? What the h.e.l.l was he talking about? She grabbed the energetic boy's wrist and pulled him another direction. Her parental instincts kicked in. "This way. We need to get in Minhyun's car."

"Yes ma'am!"

Although, escaping the hospital was a reason for Ji-ho's happiness, it wasn't the only thing he was excited about. You see, yesterday night Ji-ho made another deal with Minhyun. Knowing that he currently held power in his hands for saving the CEO, he decided to find a way to make Jeju an everyday occurrence.

How so?

By living at Minhyun's house alongside Yoona.

It was the perfect plan and he couldn't wait to see what would be in store. After all, the days were never dull with Minhyun and Yoona by his side. They were his two most favorite people in the world after all.

The drive to Minhyun's house wasn't far from the hospital because he lived in the middle of the bustling city. Yoona led Ji-ho to the top floor with one of the building security guards in tow to carry Ji-ho's luggage.

When they arrived to the s.p.a.cious apartment, Ji-ho ran around the room, fascinated by all the technology in store.

"Welcome Ms. Yoona," Gloria said.

Ji-ho widened his eyes and jumped up and down. "Is that the new prototype MH has been working on?"

Yoona nodded. "Yeah, I don't know much about it, but isn't it fascinating?"

He placed his index finger on his chin. "Well, I guess? I mean it's only said hi so far so... I hope it has more functionalities. I'm pretty sure if it's by MH its pretty good. But I can make it better." There was no doubt that with Ji-ho's help, this prototype could improve by the hundreds, but was he going to do it? Nah, too lazy.

She raised an eyebrow. "Really? You know, sometimes I forget that you're some tech genius with that personality of yours."

"Hey! Don't only say that about me. If you really look at it, every genius is weird in some way. Even look at Minhyun, that dudes a G.o.d in the business world but the epitome of no-fun." Ji-ho let out a grand smile. "At least i'm the best of both worlds. Fun and a prodigy."

She look her head while chuckling. "I guess so. Man i'm surrounded by prodigies huh?"

"Basically," Ji-ho sang. "I mean, you're not too bad yourself."

"Me?" She asked, pointing to herself. "How so?"

"I mean, you're literally best friends with the two best bachelors in the world. Of course you are not normal."

Two? What was he talking about. She knew that Minhyun was one, but who was the other... Wait a minute... Was Ji-ho referring to himself?

She let out a large laugh. "Okay Mr. Bachelor, think whatever you want."

"Don't lie to yourself. I'm a pretty great catch," Ji-ho said with a wink.

"Of course you are," she said. Then she looked over at the clock, it was around dinner time. "I haven't eaten all day. Aren't you hungry."

Ji-ho grabbed his stomach and nodded. "Same. I was just going to mention it."

"Pizza?"

His eyes lit up. His dimples deepening. "h.e.l.l yeah pizza."

After the delivery men came to give them their meal, the two found themselves eating at the table in front of the television. The regular Korean variety show was playing in the background as they engulfed the cheesy goodness into their mouths.

"You know…" Ji-ho began suddenly. "Do you always stay alone in Minhyun's house like this while he works?"

She swallowed the food in her mouth. "Yeah. Why?"

"Just thought that it might be lonely. I mean, i'm here so its fine, but when I go, its going to suck probably."

Was it just her or has Ji-ho become a lot more sentimental nowadays? She ruffled his hair and let out a smile. "I mean, i'd love it if he was here with us but I also know how busy he is. His whole life has been dedicated to this company. Since I know that he loves me in his heart, I don't mind the wait. After all, doesn't that make the limited time we have together all the more special?"

Ji-ho thought for a moment before nodding. "That's true! Haven't really thought about it that way."

"Besides, there are five different ways people express and feel love. Through gift giving, quality time, physical touch, service, and words of affirmation. For me, he sacrifices so much for me through acts of service. I'm content with that."

He let out a mischievous laugh. "Really? I thought it would be physical touch."

After being the recipient of Ji-ho's teasing, she now knew how Minhyun felt this whole time. Poor man. To think the MH CEO would have to suffer through such abuse.

"You little... We only kissed two times! If you're an adult this is standard."

Ji-ho thought for a moment. "If it's so standard than why haven't you gone further?"

The answer was obvious so she couldn't understand why he was asking such a question. She stared at him blankly. "Why do you think?"

"Uh I don't know, that's why i'm asking," he said with a curious smile.

"We've only started dating two days ago," she answered. Her cheeks blushed slightly. "We aren't going to do anything any time soon."

She wasn't sure why she was talking about this topic with a child like him, but she couldn't help but continue. But it felt weird - why were Ji-ho's eyes s.h.i.+ning with mischievousness? Clearly the young boy had something in his sleeve!

There was a pause. "Oh please. Have you seen the s.e.xual tension between you too? I was about to choke in it when he asked you out."

"Okay maybe," she said while placing a strand of hair behind of her ear. Her cheeks were getting redder as the conversation heated up. "Besides, you're here so it's not like we can do anything anyways."

"Well you're wrong!" Ji-ho announced.

Yoona c.o.c.ked her head. "What do you mean?"

"The reason to why I came all the way here is because I have one goal!" He stood up from his seat and proudly let out his chest.

Yoona sat there, utterly confused at what the young boy was going at. It was as if he was filming a movie by himself, announcing dramatically out of nowhere.

"I've thought about this and I realized that I need to place more imprints within this world so that non of you guys will forget about me."

"I really don't think we'd forget about -"

"I am going to make sure I become an uncle before I die. Or well, I mean like you know, the whole process happens before I pa.s.s away so i'm somewhat involved."

Yoona chocked on her pizza.

What was this crazy child talking about?!?!?
