The Hottest Family's
012 - Can You Close Your Eyes?

Try to make yourself happy. Jaeha's words rang in Dokja's mind. Can he really be happy? It feels like impossible. Dokja's gaze was a little blurry, but Dokja still continued to be swept away in the contents of his head.

"You okay?" jaeha asked while embracing Dokja who was slightly staggered as she walked.

"uh? Why?" ask back Dokja who made Jaeha frown.

"Your face is pale, are you sick?" Jaeha looked at Dokja with a worried look.

"Nope-no. Don't mind me" replied Dokja.

Jaeha put the back of his hand on Dokja's forehead, feeling hot, it is certain that Dokja is currently sick.

"We should just order the delivery, you should rest," said Jaeha who was still staring at Dokja closely.

"I'm fine." Dokja tries to push Jaeha, but apparently his power has run out and Dokja's body suddenly shivers. Is this because Dokja shot this afternoon in the rain? Could be.

"Where's your room?" jaeha asked attentively.

"Room?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I-I haven't cleaned it up yet" Dokja replied with a slight embarrassment. He only slightly cleaned the living room after coming home from the supermarket. That's also why Dokja asked for help cleaning the house at Jooheon's office.

"..." - ".Jaeha did not say much. He immediately held Dokja and walked towards the room not far from the kitchen.

DUG

Jaeha kicked the room door. Sure enough, the condition of the room is very dusty and not worth to wear. Especially used by people who are sick like Dokja.

"I can sleep on the couch. You don't have to worry about me" Dokja said in a weak voice.

"What do you think I am? Leaving the sick alone in an empty house full of dust and also dedemit," replied Jaeha who made Dokja laugh a little.

"The dedemit? I'm used to things like that" Dokja replied honestly. He had indeed gotten used to communicating with the ethereal beings like Sung Wukong and the others. Not only that, Dokja also gets special powers from there.

Ah, whatever it is. Jaeha didn't need to know. Inner Dokja who was already accustomed to this new world.

"Is all your stuff in that suitcase?" jaeha asked to make sure. He pointed at a black suitcase that was beside the living room sofa.

"Yes." Yeah." Dokja.

"OKAY. Then we go to my hostel," Jaeha said as he walked over to Dokja's suitcase.

"Costans?" Dokja was a little surprised to hear what Jaeha said.

"Can you close your eyes for a second?" pinta Jaeha with a smile.

"Close it."

"Uhm.. Okay." Okay." Though hesitant, Dokja closed her eyes as Jaeha had asked.

Dokja and Jaeha were silent for a moment. Even so, Dokja could feel that Jaeha was walking while holding himself.

"You can open your eyes now."

Slowly, Dokja opened her eyes. Dokja can faintly see that what is in front of him is not a large dusty room anymore, but a small flower garden in front of the house with three floors.

Is that the contract Jaeha meant? How could this possibly happen? Wasn't Dokja and Jaeha in Dokja's house? Thousands of questions popped up in Dokja's head.

"You know, I also have special powers obtained from the dedemites," said Jaeha who can guess what the head of Dokja is.

"really? How's that possible?!"

"You don't have to think about it. In this world there are many things that can never be explained by logic" Jaeha replied casually as he walked into the house. Heading to his room on the third floor at the corner.

"Down me" said Dokja. Jaeha dropped Dokja off at the door of his room.

"I'm sorry before that my room is a mess, but at least you can rest comfortably here" Jaeha said as he unlocked the door.

"It's okay."

After the door opened, Jaeha hurriedly tidied up his slightly messy mattress. Unlike the case with Dokja whose view is captivated on some canvas placed leaning against the wall.

"Is this your thing?" dokja asked while watching a koi fish painting.

"Not bad, is it? I hope someday I can have my own gallery."

"Yes, you have to."

"I'm done with the bed. You better get some rest." Jaeha approached Dokja.

"I still want to take a look at your painting" replied Dokja who ended with a smile.

"It's up to you then. I'm gonna take a shower first." Jaeha took a towel from the closet and walked into the bathroom in his room.

Dokja sighed and looked around. Is it okay if he's at Jaeha's place? Dokja didn't want to bother Jaeha at all.

Wanna Dokja stay and go overnight at the hotel, but the dizziness that reaches him makes Dokja inevitably choose to lie on Jaeha's mattress.

"Just for a moment" said Dokja, closing her eyes.
