Ch.7 A Hand
■Y/N's POV■
I'm putting my stuff inside my bag when my boss came to me and looks a little troubled.
Takai: L/N, I've just checked the files that you sent to me, I found some mistakes... the order is not right so I'm sorry but you need to do it over...
Y/N: oh my? I'm so sorry...
Semi comes to me and asks what happened.
Semi: what is it, sir?
Takai: the proposal that Y/N made for tomorrow's presentation isn't right... I'm also at fault for not checking it earlier... but I have some other thi-
Y/N: it's okay... it's my fault, I'm gonna work on it...
Takai: the submission is tomorrow at 7, two hours before the presentation.
I look at my watch, it's already 9 P.M. I can stay up to do it.
Semi: I'll help...
I look at Semi as he's looking at Takai san
Y/N: Semi?
Semi: Y/N and I live next to each other, we could finish it faster this way...
Takai: that's a big help Semi... then please help her out.
Semi: yes sir...
I look at Semi as Mr. Takai left us. Semi grabs his bag and looks at me.
Semi: come on
Y/N: ah... uh.. okay
I look at Semi as he drives us back to our apartment. Semi takes a glance at me and then looks at the road again.
Semi: why did you keep on staring at me?
I just realize that I've been glancing at him since we left the office.
Y/N: I uh... Semi... you don't have to help me... it's my fault so I...
Semi: it'll be faster if we do it together... and I don't mind giving you a hand...
Semi gives me a smile before diverting his gaze back at the road. I can feel my heart warmed by his kindness.
Y/N: Semi... thank you...
Semi: no worries..
■3rd Person POV■
Y/N and Semi are sitting in Y/N's living room. The two are working with their own laptops. They share the job that needs to be done so it'll finish faster.
While their hands are moving on the keyboard, Semi would sometimes steal glances at Y/N's way. Seeing her seriously working on the project amuses him.
When Semi sees the trouble in her face when Mr. Takai told her about the mistakes she made, Semi decided that he wants to give her a hand right away. Using the fact that they live next to each other, made him able to makes Y/N let him help.
Y/N looks at her watch, it's almost eleven by now. Then, she remembers that the two of them haven't eaten dinner yet. They started working the moment they arrived at her place.
Y/N feels bad that Semi too hasn't eaten because he helps her with her work.
Y/N: Semi... I'm gonna make us something to eat, let rest for a while...
Semi looks up at Y/N and smiles.
Semi: sure...
Y/N cooks them (food) and serves them on the dining table. She calls on Semi to join her at the dining table. Semi came and sits, amazed by what Y/N made.
Semi: you made quite an appetizing food...
Y/N: uh... it's because Semi helps me that I want to at least make something good for you to recharge the energy that you used...
Semi looks at Y/N as she shyly looks at her knees. How Semi loves to see this side of her. She's always considerate of people's feelings. Even to him, someone who hurt her before.
Semi: Thank you, Y/N... let's eat now and finish this load of works, okay?
Y/N: yes!
The two eat together and talk about many things. A moment like this is something that Semi enjoys a lot. A moment when he can listen to Y/N talks about a lot of things. It made him feels like he learns about her when they're apart.
They've eaten all of the food and cleaning the table. Semi takes the plates from Y/N's hand, making the woman looks up at him.
Semi: you cooked, I'll wash these plates...
Y/N: no! you can't you're my guess...
Semi: well, let's do it together... I'm not just gonna sit and watch...
With that, Y/N nods her head and together with Semi, they wash the plates. Doing this together makes her feel warm inside.
The two return to the living room and continue working on their laptop. Hours passed, there's just a little more to do.
The time is showing two in the morning when they finally finished the task. Y/N check it one last time and send it to Mr. Takai's email.
Y/N: Done!
Y/N looks at Semi and bows her head before staring at him. Y/N gives Semi her sweet smile, which made the man caught his breath a little.
Y/N: Semi, thank you... I wouldn't have finished this fast without your help... thank you!
Semi watches as Y/N is grinning happily, and that makes him happy knowing that he made her grins like that. Semi raises both his hands up and Y/N looks at him.
Semi: good job...
Y/N chuckles and then raises her hands up for a high five.
Y/N is yawning and stretching her body a little. When Semi gets up.
Semi: Y/N can I borrow your bathroom for a sec... I'll leave after...
Y/N: oh sure...
Semi went to the bathroom for a while. When he's done, he walks back to the living room only to find Y/N with her head on the table, eyes closed. She's sleeping soundly and Semi watches as her back moves when she breathes.
■Semi's POV■
I walk closer and crouches down quietly in front of her. I move a strands of her hair behind her ears, Looking at her beautiful face.
Semi: you're not a late nighter, aren't you? what would you be if you didn't let me help you?
I can't help but chuckle seeing Y/N's sleeping face. I gently place an arm under the back of her knees and put my other hand on her back. I lift her up and carry her.
Y/N's head resting on my chest and it made me smile seeing her this close to me. I walk to her room and move the handle with my elbow, opening the door.
I put Y/N down on her bed and tuck her under the cover.
I hope I could get the chance to spend the day with her like this again...
Semi: good night... Y/N...
I walk out of her room, turning off the light before I leave, and close the door behind me. I pick up my stuff and go back to my own apartment.
I drop my body on the bed and stare at the ceilings. Then I get up and sit on the bed instead, can't help but to ponder.
Semi: Ironic...
I laugh at myself, feeling my heart clenches.
Semi: I like the woman that I've hurt before... what kind of punishment is this...
Yes... Back then I regret what I did...
Now, seeing her again... slowly grow my feelings back...
The feelings that never died... the one that I buried deep...
Under the feeling of guilt...
I... Love Y/N...
