━ Huh?! I told you no...
━ According to my friend, Yeoju is very stubborn.
━ Ah... Haraga... is that so?
📱🎵📱🎵
‘There’s really nothing Lee Hara can’t say…’
━ Didn't I tell you to do it?
━ It's obvious at first glance, but what is it...
━ You're so perceptive, why can't I notice it?
━ Yes?
My senior stopped walking and gazed down at me thoughtfully. I trembled, wondering what to say next. Then, just in time, he finally opened his mouth.
━ My lady...
━ Yes?
━ ···No.
━ What is it···?
━ No. Where is your house?
━ It's next to the cafe.
━ What, we're almost there already.
My senior again casually grabbed one of my shoulders and pressed against me, fearing the rain might get on us. I really couldn't get used to this proactive side of him. Jimin seemed unfazed, but I was the only one frozen like this.
━ Oh, wait a minute, ma'am.
━ Yes, I will hold the umbrella.
━ Will you do that?
I was handed an umbrella, and as I was receiving it, Jimin's hand brushed against mine. Again, I was self-conscious. I held the umbrella a little closer to Jimin, who was on the phone. Apparently, Jimin noticed this, as he put his arm around me, placing his hand over mine as I held the umbrella. He then grabbed the umbrella.
━ S, hand···.
The senior continued on the phone as if nothing had happened. Seriously, Jimin was holding my hand, but it wasn't enough. He wrapped his arm around me, and every time he grabbed my shoulder, I couldn't help but feel closer. I was so nervous right now, I was going crazy, and my face was getting redder and redder.
━ Okay, I got it. I'll go with it. Okay, see you later.
My senior hung up the phone. I was so nervous that I could barely speak to Jimin.
━ I... senior.
━ huh?
I was speaking to my senior while we were standing close together, when he suddenly turned his face toward me. He was so close. I was startled for a moment, then turned back to face him and spoke.
━ This... hand...
━ Oh, sorry. You held the umbrella towards me.
━ Senior, everything is correct.
━ So let's stay like this until we go.
━ yes···?
━ Your face is so red?
My senior chuckled at my blushing face as if he knew why I was acting like this.
━ Ah... I'm shaking... No, it's a little hot.
━ Are you nervous?
━ No? I'm not shaking. What makes you shake... It's because it's hot, because it's hot.
━ Lady, I'm shaking.
━ Then... you can just let go of my hand...
━ I don't want to. Oh, right. Do you have some time, lady?
━ Hmm... there's plenty of time...!
━ Really? That's great. Do you want to have dinner with me later?
━ Dinner...?
━ Yeah. I suddenly have a high school reunion coming up. To be exact, can you be my girlfriend just once?
━ Me?!
━ I'm surprised... Sorry. I lied to my friend before because he said he'd introduce me to a girl, but he just brought her over for dinner.
━ uh···.
I couldn't say anything out loud. Deep down, I wanted to have a fake girlfriend, even if it meant not having a real one, but I was too embarrassed to say anything.
━ Ah, if you don't like it, there's nothing I can do about it...
━ Uh... I'll do it...!
━ Really? Thank you, heroine.
━ no.
Jimin, seemingly satisfied with my answer, smiled brightly. Still pressed against me, I glanced at his face before looking straight ahead again. I watched him smile up close, and how handsome he was. We soon arrived in front of the cafe.
━ How about killing some time at this cafe? The meeting place isn't far from here.
━ is it so.
