Dreams

In the meantime while Tae and Mery were chatting, Alex finished getting info about Tae and went to Jk to share this information.

Once again he was present in Jk's study with a document file in his hands which he had already gone through. Jk just finished his lunch and was working in his study when Alex came. Alex passed the file to jk and told-

Alex: I couldn't find anything special in particular about that boy. He has a simple and clear background.

Jk : It cannot be possible. Grandpa ain't ever interested in someone without a reason. There must be something in that boy which catched his attention. You sure you didn't found anything else?

Alex : Yea. I looked through everything. Kindergarten, school, high school, relationships, everything. There's nothing special.

Jk : Relationships. What's the info about those?

Alex : Uh....nothing at all. He doesn't seem to have dated anyone.

Jk : No, I meant family relationships.

Alex : Oooh. There's nothing special about his family also. They are farmers currently living in the countryside in a small village by the Ryn Mountain. He lived with his mother, father and grandfather before coming here.

Jk : Hmm. Ok. Tell me if there's any other strings related to him. There have to be something about him that gets grandpa's attention. I want to find out about it................hmm................Guess, I have to find it out on my own.

Alex : You ain't planning anything bad right? Remember he is a kid.

Jk : Of course not. Don't worry. I will just keep eye on him personally.

Alex : Hmm..Ok... (sus.... He haven't ever been this interested in anyone before too)

Jk : You also look after him.

Alex : I am pretty much the one doing that instead of you. It was your job to 'look after him'.

Jk : That's fine. You are more skilled in handling children than me.

Alex : Comon. He is not a 5-year-old. I know he is a kid but not a toddler. And I don't have much skills in babysitting too no matter how much better I am than you.

Jk : Yea yea. *roll eyes* Move back to work now if you don't have anything else to say.

Alex : .....ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ Fck u. *left*

Jk: You too ! *shout from behind*

After taking a long breath jk again began working on some files. After a few hours he felt bored and stepped out of his study to take a walk, he climbed the stairs and as he as passing by on the second floor he heard a sweet giggling male voice with a female's. He moved a few steps in front and peeked in through a half open door where Tae was sitting on the bed and mery was standing beside him talking with him. At that moment Tae asked her something,

Tae : I was wondering if you could possibly tell me more about this place.

Mery nodded and was about to tell something when jk, from behind, interfered and said

Jk : Why don't you ask Me ?

Tae turned around on the voice and mery received a shiver in her spines, she bowed and left hurriedly from the room. Both of the men were left alone now.

Jk continued : If you have any inquires, ask Alex or me. Don't disturb the servants during their work.

Tae, slightly angered, said : If you ever come out of your study then why not!

And there, Tae hammered himself on his own foot (idiom), he ended up creating trouble for himself with his own words.

Jk smirked and said : Sure then, As I am out of my study now, let us chatter together.

Tae: (F-ck, What did you did Tae !!!!!! You had to avoid him not to attract him!)

Why give yourself such trouble *Tae sweetly said*. I don't wish to disturb or distract you from your work Mr.....(?)....

Jk : Just jk, or master if you prefer *Smile*. Moreover, as a host, I don't want my dear guest to have troubles you know.

Tae : *angry but doesn't show* If that's what you want Jk !. I am in the mood to have a garden visit. Let's go.

Tae said in an ordering tone and moved a step forward than Jk.

Jk : *murmur* Bold kitten.

Jk walked with Tae towards the garden.

Wind blew the flowers lightly as Tae stepped in the garden. Various flowering plant and shaped bushes with variety of seeds on them could be seen. A path was engraved of brown stones in the middle upon which Tae and Jk walked together. Tae was surprised on the beauty before his eyes. As his major was on botany, it was as if a little paradise was in front of him at the moment. Out of which was a species of flowers he couldn't identify, locating far from all the other plants in the region of the garden where the sun lit the most of its light. A barrier of pebbles surrounded it. It had dark red and blackish color. Tae quickly went towards that area leaving Jk on the stone path alone. From a distance away he inspected the flower for a few minutes and gasped. His gasp alerted Jk and jk quickly went towards Tae asking the matter. Tae stuttered and looked at Jk surprisingly and said

Tae : You have Chocolate Cosmos !! How did you manage to grow it here!

Jk sighed on Tae's words. He was, for a moment, worried about what that big gasp was for. But Tae was simply surprised on the sight of a rare species.

Jk explained Tae that all these plants were grown and cared by many qualified gardeners with knowledge of various species of plants and even herbs.

Jk : My grandfather love plants and flora, so I especially asked the specialists to plant these flowers as they are one of the rare and my grandfather's favorite flower plant. But why are you so surprised on this?

Tae : Why should I not be! You are rich enough to grow it in your Home. But I have never seen it in real life other than in image or book. Of course, I am surprised. You don't know how I am feeling right now.

Jk : You can order it from overseas if you love them that much.

Tae : And who is going to pay for that?! I already told you I don't have so much money unlike you. Moreover, it is not simple to grow a rare species. It requires the right amount of every factor. For example in Chocolate Cosmos, they require at least 6 hours of sunlight. Not only that, if you water them too much, their roots may end up rotting. The best is to water them deeply once a week.

Jk : I see, I guess I didn't realise it was so tough.

Tae : But now you are aware so take really good care of them!

Jk : Are you ordering me? *Raise eyebrow*

Tae : (Oops....) Of course not. I was just telling. *smile*

Jk : Hm, you better won't.

Tae : yes...yes.

After roaming for a while Jk received a call and had to go outside. He walked Tae to his room and then left to work. Tae lied down on his bed and took a sweet nap as he didn't had anything else to do. After a while he woke up and found out that it was already evening. He asked the servants to bring his dinner and ate it. When the servant were cleaning his dinning table in his room, he asked them-

Tae : Is your master home yet?

Servant : Not yet sir. Do you need something?

Tae : No... I was just asking *Smile politely*

Servant : I see sir. I can inform him if you want to meet him.

Tae : Not now. I will tell you if i would want to. Thanks *Gummy smile*

Servant: *Blush* y..yes sir

The servants left and Tae sat idly on the sofa thinking about the recent incidents. He kept thinking for a long time and fell asleep there. He was tired as it was a long day.

.

.

.

After very long, Tae dreamt of his deceased grandmother. She loved Tae very much but received an early call from heaven. But Tae could always feel her beside him whenever he was troubled. And again, in his troubled time, she came in his dreams.

.

.

.

*Tae's dream*

.

.

In a small yet comfy room, an old lady was knitting a scarf of red colour. Tae saw her and a bright big smile crawled on his face. He ran to her and hugged her. She smelled like Jasmines.

.

Tae : How are you granna!

Grandmother : As good as your love for me. *Hug him back*

Tae : I missed you soo much! Why were you so late this time?

Grandmother: I too missed my boy. But you were happy all this time so I didn't found the need to come. After all, I was busy chatting with my old friends in heaven, hahaha.

Tae : Oh granny. Comon, I know everyone feared you too much to freely chat with you, even grandpa fears you!

Grandmother: Haha. He still does?

Tae : He will forever I guess. Hehe.

Grandmother: You lovely boy hmm. Always on your grandma's side.

Tae : I will always be on you side *teehee*!

Grandmother: Very good! But I was wondering, why are you so tensed?

Tae : You noticed hmm. It's because of someone. Thoughts about him are troubling me so much!

Grandmother: Ooh. Is this someone handsome ?

Tae : Grandmaa!!!

Grandmother: Haha sorry! Continue child.

Tae : So the thing is that, there is this cold mafia type person who brought me in his house so that I would stay out of the reach of police because I witnessed a scene which I shouldn't had. It's been a day or two staying with him already. And you know, everytime I look at him, I feel a connection, a familiarity with him. I cannot explain what that feeling is like. But.......he just seems close to me even though we haven't met before. But he is scary, cold and doesn't allow anybody get close to him. That's what the servants also told me.

Grandmother: Ooh is that so? It seems like you have observed him a lot in such a short time. You must really be interested in him, aren't you?

Tae : N... No I am not! He is in a world different from me. I don't even want to stay near him, he kidnapped me and brought me here.

Grandmother: If that's what you think. I cannot do much about it. But if you are feeling a connection with him, you must have met before.

Tae : How's that possible? I never even knew he existed until now. I only know some friends, colleagues and my family. You know how good my memory is, if I would have met him I would definitely remember it. But I don't.

Grandmother: If you think that then it's fine. Just think that this connection is a sign from fate. If you think you haven't met him before yet you feel a connection and familiarity with him then maybe it's just fate that you two met. Maybe you guys will become good friends in the future or something more.

Tae: I don't at all understand what you are talking about granny. But if you want me to befriend him, I will try. Cause you know I am a sweetheart *hehe*.

Grandmother: There you go praising yourself on your own. *sigh*

Tae : Grannnyyyyy!!!!! Humph! *pout*

Grandmother: okey my darling baby, now it's time to go hmm. Stay well and do what Your Heart think is the best. Remember that I am always with you...

Tae : Okey, I will miss you granny.........

Tae's eyes opened and he was again in the bed of the guest room of jk's mansion. He hugged the pillow near him tightly and muttered "friends hmm......maybe I can try till the time I am here" and smuggled his face in the pillow.
