Frozen Soul Trapped In Box Of Love

Chapter 8 - The scent of memories

I was running as fast as I can. There are people in black suit chasing me. I can feel a tiny hand holding me tight, I hear a voice that talking to me. We were inside a dark-wood, running along the big tree and dirt. I was crying and feels so scared. Will mom and daddy be okay? I felt pain and it make my tears flowing unstoppable. I saw a vague figure beside me. He was a boy that running along with me. Why? Why?

"Do you always sleeping like this when working in this house?"

Aya open her eyes slowly. She felt cold sweat slowly running down at her neck. Her eyes was wet with tears. But I cannot remember what I saw in my dream. It's different from the usual.

"I am pretty sure this dream is not the usual nightmare that I have before. There was no explosion and blood. Usually if I have that dream I will awake in awefull mood of anger and hate."

Aya was muttering, she was more likely talking to herself. Trying to thinking hard on the smallest piece of memories from her dream. Sung Hoon voice bring her back to reality.

"Its almost dinner"

She close her eyes and sit. She think he just said dinner. She wipe her tears and saw a box of tissue with a glass of water at the table. She fall asleep at the living room and the clock at the wall show it already 6pm.

"Sorry... you should awake me sooner. How long have I've been sleeping?"

"Three hours? and you snoring like a donkey"

"I was? Lucky you."

Aya drink the water and took the empty glass into the kitchen. He was standing in front the fridge. She should do her job, thinking on what to cook she decide to ask the boss of the house.

"What do you want me to cook for your dinner?"

"I heard the kids at the school say something about your stew. I craving something spicy"

"Lets make it"

Aya walk to the fridge and standing behind him. He was big and tall. She can't see anything from his back.

"Can you move aside, I can't see..."

Aya cant finish her words as he turned suddenly and she felt her body was pushed. She was assured that she definitely will fall to the floor but a firm hand reached her waist. She felt his hand at her waist and her face was at his c.h.e.s.t.

Sung Hoon pull her to his body. Since Aya was small and light he might overuse his energy because she was now really close to his skin.

Aya can smell the apple scent that comes from Sung Hoon. This scent was familiar to her. It's like she almost remember it but the shuttered piece of her memory was vague in her mind.

"Wait... did you just sniff my neck?"

Aya grab his neck and try to bring out the memories. Aya clearly forgot about the different gender. He was a man and she was a lady. But Aya was to focused on finding her memory that she didn't notice on how uncomfortable Sung Hoon has been.

"Are you sick? Whats wrong with you?"

"Sshhh... Just a bit"

Aya grab his neck using her left hand and hold his shoulder with her right hand. This is his perfume, she thought while tip toeing sniffing Sung Hoon neck. But what make this scent trigger the memory. Its not just his perfume, the smell of cigar? No it must be something else.

Suddenly, Aya felt she was in the air and realize that Sung Hoon put her on the island table. She can feel the cold ceramic tabletop below her bottom. His face was red and his eyebrows rise a bit.

"What the hell are doing to me? Are you pervert?"

He than cover his body with his arm while staring at Aya with an annoying eyes. Aya just can't believe her ears. Did he just thinking that she want to seduce him?

"Bullshit. Did you just aroused with that kind of thing?"

"You look like a primary student, do you think you can seduced me with only that?"

Aya left out a soft sigh. She crossed her leg and look at his deep eyes. She should talk to him in proper words and explain to clear this misunderstanding. He was an arrogant man with huge pride.

"Do you wearing a certain perfume with an apple essence?"

Sung Hoon nodded. And he let down his hand from his c.h.e.s.t. He starred at her. His face become soft.

"It was custom made perfume. It's a gift from a royal family"

He look proud in a moment then sadness appear from his smile. He look at the floor, made a smile that look like a smile but in same way it was a shady smile.

"Do you saw me crying my sleep?"

He standing infront of me, while put his right hand in his jeans pocket. His left hand at the island bar. I still sitting crossing my leg on the island bar table. He loose white shirt look so good on him. And he only look at me without saying anything.

"I lost my memories. I absolutely cannot remember anything about my life. Its like being wipe clean. It's not from injury of anything physical. But it comes from a traumatic experienced. They say I locked the pain that hurt me inside"

"Are you sure that they didn't say you just mentally ill? They really said you lost the memory not sanity?"

Is this man real? Isn't he just kill me two times in one row of sentence. He drew his face near me slowly. I can clearly saw his lips, nose and look at his eyebrow. And I stare at his deep eyes, I put my hand on his c.h.e.s.t. I can feel his heart that beating. Aya was in deep thought.

"Is this beating heart in pain? Why do it keep silently torturing this person in front of me?"

He look at her then he close his eyes. He distance his body from her and in a firm low tone voice when he walk away, Aya heard his words clearly.

"Go home."
