7 Shopping With Dad

I went down the stairs passing the wide hallway. As I descended from the stairs I saw dad typing on his laptop in the dining table.

"Goodmorning dad." I greeted.

"Morning." Dad smiled.

I sat by dad's side and ate my breakfast. Today's breakfast had a little bit of korean food added. There was galbi and bukeoguk with some side dishes. I remember eating them when I was little. There was also some sunnyside up eggs and rice with milk.

I cut a piece of the grilled ribs and put a piece in my mouth and chewed it. I could feel the sauce spreading in my mouth as I chewed on it. It was delicious. Then I paired the ribs with the glistening white rice and the two made a wonderful blend. I reached to get the soup and it gave a savory flavor that I liked. The korean side dishes that I paired up with the food was also great it gave a fresh feeling from all the heavyfood I ate. When I finished eating the food I poured myself a glass of milk. The milk was rich and thick which made it delicious.

Wow is this gonna become a food novel now?

"Thank you for the meal." I said as I was about to go upstairs.

"Siwon" My dad called out.

"Yes?"

"Do you have plans today?"

"None."

"Then, let's go to the mall."

~~~~~~~~~~

"What a sunny day. Siwon we should buy some clothes for you to wear."

I nodded as we went inside one of the clothes store. I tried out some clothes and also some shoes. After fitting them my dad and I went to the counter to pay for it. While I was lining up like a good customer something caught my eye.

"Dad."

"Yes Siwon?"

"Look over there."

I pointed to a cute neck pillow. It had a black cat face that had green eyes that looked very adorable.

"Can we buy it too?... please?" I looked at my dad.

Dad smiled. He walked to the neck pillow and placed the neck pillow in my head.

"Ofcourse we can buy it. We can buy anything you want."

"Ermm.... sir we're gonna have you to pay for it first" The salesclerk nervously said.

After we paid for the items my dad asked me where I wanted to eat. I told him that he could just pick for me as long as the food is edible. He laughed lightly and brought us to a restaurant. My dad and I ordered food and then we waited for the food to come.

Silence.

Silence filled the air as we waited and waited and waited for the food.

"What do you want to do after eating?" My dad suddenly asked.

"Can we buy some books?"

"Sure. I'll drive you to a really nice bookshop."

"Ok."

Then another round of silence passed by. This time you I could practically not breathe anymore. I was about to try and make a conversation when finally, FINALLY the food came.

I sighed in relief.

Me and my dad ate silently. As in very silently we just had not topic at all.

After eating dad drove to the bookstore.

The bookshop was very antique. The shelves, tables, and, chairs had beautiful flower carvings. The wood used was still as shiny even though this bookstore was made years before. (according to my dad)

I looked around and found a few books that caught my interest and picked them up.

After paying for the books dad drove me home.

As we were going home I looked outside the window.

The sky was full of clouds and those clouds we gray. It looks like it's gonna rain today.

When we arrived I waved goodbye to my dad as he drove off. He had some bussiness to take care of so I was left in the mansion. But I didn't have to worry since he was going to return at night for dinner anyways.

As I went inside the mansion feeling a bit lonely as I was about to go upstairs into my room I stopped when I saw the kitchen.

I paused for a moment before walking to the kitchen.

The chef was not in there today because of personal matters but I could just call for a maid. But that would make me a bit uncomfortable so I might as well cook on my own.

I went to the fridge and took some eggs, butter, tomato, onion, and some cream.

I reached up for the pan and cracked the egg on the pan and added butter. I cut the tomato and onion and mixed it in the scrambled eggs. At the end I added some cream.

After cooking I poured the scrambled eggs in a bowl. I liked the scrambled eggs a little bit runny.

As I set down the bowl of scrambled eggs I also grabbed a glass and filled it with water.

Going to the dining table I placed the food on the table and went to the living room to get the books dad bought for me.

I chose from the books and settled for a Thriller/Mystery book.

As I was reading the book I was also eating the scrambled eggs. Some might say that what I was doing did not go right with table manners but I couldn't care less since no one was here in the empty house except house maids who seem to be non existent right now.

After munching on my scrambled eggs I gulped down the water and headad for my room. I did not bother to clean up since one, I was to lazy and two, maids can do it anyways.

As I made my way to my room I walked up the stairs and passed by some guest rooms and turned right then left and straight ahead.

It might be confusing to some people but for me , I probably already know my way around this mansion like the back of my palm... err hand or... something.

Once I arrived I changed my clothes and laid on my bed and continued reading. While I was reading I noticed that it started raining, the sound of water droplets falling down accompanied by the sound of paper as I turned to the next page calmed me.

A day had probably passed or it might have just been fifteen minutes I don't know but i was getting tired of my position. I kept shifting positions but in the end I couldn't take it anymore and walked to the window seat. It was exaclty like I said, a window seat. For the sake of those who don't know what that is it's a window that has a kind of place where you can sit or lay on.

I sat there, watched as the rain fell down from the sky some droplets sticking to the window and later the droplets slide down.
