His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 147: The sooner it is, the better it is

He blinks, unable to say a word.

She purses her lips nervously, pressed under his weight.

"Ahem!" She clears her throat first. "Can you move away first?"

"No." He shakes his head. "Clear things with me first."

"Clear what?" She glares at him. "I said that to Keeper because he was -"

"He can still hear you though." He chuckles.

She coughs, uneasy. This is crap. "I prefer the previous arrangement. Why can you see his memories too?"

"I very much prefer this. If I didn't see it, I would have never known it." He moves his face closer to her. Their noses are almost touching, breaths entwined. Her blushing face and stubborn look in her eyes are tingling up his heart. It's been a long time since he saw her like this.

"Kwon Kyuri, do you want to be with me?"

"Aren't we already together?" She looks away from him. "You eat here. You take baths here. You even sleep here now. We are almost together 24 hours a day."

"You know what I mean." He grabs her chin and makes her look at him. "If we survive, will you marry me again?"

"When did I marry Kang Si An? I married Li Jun." She feels her face burning under his face. "Can't you do anything properly, Kang Si An? You have starred in so many romantic romcoms. How come you can't even propose? I can forgive Li Jun because his era was different. But you are quite experienced, aren't you?"

"My apologies." Kang Si An's eyes gleam with joy. "After we take care of Yoon Miran, I will do it properly. Will you say yes then?"

"I will consult with Little Hae first." Kyuri knows that she can't back away anymore. The milk has been spilt, thanks to the Keeper. "If she says yes, we will see."

"She will say yes for sure." Kang Si An brushes his lips against her cheek teasingly. Kyuri feels a surge of heat flowing through her veins.

She looks at him fiercely. "Don't do that..."

He nudges her nose with his. "I didn't do anything yet."

"You kissed my cheek."

"You should be glad that I am not attacking your lips right now." He lets out a laugh. He wants to hold himself back. There's this situation with the keeper.

"Hmph!" She scoffs. "As if I would let you attack me."

Kang Si An didn't think that this moment would ever be a reality. It still feels like a dream. He got a second chance to be with her. Despite everything, she still loves him.

He tells her seriously, "Kyuri, I will never ever give you the reason to hate me again."

She smiles at him with her eyes. "I believe you."

Kang Si An's phone rings. He can tell that it's from Kim Taeho. He moves away from Kyuri and picks up the call.

[When are you going forward with your plans?]

"Tonight when Yoon Miran's asleep," Kang Si An replies and wonders what happened to Kim Taeho. He sounds angry and hurt at the same time.

[Meet me at 1 AM in front of my house.]

The call is hung up.

"What happened?" Kyuri sits up and asks.

"1 AM tonight." He looks at Kyuri gravely. "It seems like something happened between him and her."

"I see." She lets out a sigh. "The sooner it is, the better it is."

"We still have some time." He holds her hand. It's been ages since he held it. Not hiding his feelings anymore, he watches her with a content smile. "I want to spend the rest of the day with you and Little Hae."

Kyuri understands the meaning. Since they don't know whether they will exist tomorrow or not...

"Kang Si An, sorry for being hard headed." She leans on him. "I should have..."

"Don't say it." He puts his finger over his lips. "You did the right thing. You and I needed time after what happened that day."

"Even though it was..." She lifts her head and looks at him. "We have Little Hae because of that night."

"I still regret it." He looks at her sadly. "It is not a good memory. I would have preferred if it happened differently."

"I should have drugged your drink and slept with you." She smirks at him evilly. "Then, I would have been the bad guy. You would have hated me more."

"Don't say that." He flicks her forehead. "I would have come around eventually. You know it."

"Like I did?" She laughs. "I should have found you when you were a boy and made you fall for me."

"You should have. I told you that time." He coils his arms around her shoulder. "But you were afraid of leaving me behind. I think that I would have done the same if I was you."

"If we can go together, it's not a bad thing." Kyuri closes her eyes. "I don't want to leave Little Hae behind."

Kang Si An squeezes her shoulder and whispers, "We won't leave her behind."

***

Kang Si An and Kyuri go to pick up Little Hae from school together. He meets Kim Taeho there. Little Hae and Jae Hyun are talking and looking sad. The three adults can't help but roll their eyes. Even Ha-Neul is making a face.

"Father, Little Hae likes Hyun more," Ha-Neul complains to her father.

"Isn't that what you wanted?" He asks her with a serious expression.

"But they are always together." Ha-Neul crosses her arms. "There's no space for me."

Kim Taeho sighs. He doesn't know how to answer.

"Elder sister, do you want candy?" Little Hae comes and gives candy to Ha-Neul.

It's sudden. But Ha-Neul's anger leaves when she receives the candy. "Little Hae, why are you giving me candy?"

"You are upset." She blinks her green eyes at her. "Elder sister is prettier when she smiles."

Ha-Neul forgets her grievances and hugs Little Hae. "Father, help me adopt her. Please."

"You can't adopt her." Jae Hyun tells his sister calmly, "She's going to be my wife."

Kyuri presses her palms on her chest. "Why can I already foresee myself as a grandmother?"

"Kim Taeho, we might be in-laws in the future," Kang Si An speaks flatly, not happy one bit.

Kim Taeho shakes his head in disbelief.

"If things go wrong and we are not there for Little Hae anymore, take away the children and keep an eye on my Hae." Kang Si An turns to Kim Taeho. "You better be a good father-in-law to my daughter in the future."

Kim Taeho exhales sharply. "Little Hae is important to my children. I will always be good toward her."
