Streets were silent and empty, except for the two young men, walking almost side by side...

To any passerby, there's no problem with this visual, except maybe, for the glaring differences in  height, but it wasn't

Yoo Jung was feeling uncomfortable, she could feel the other eyes on her and it was making her, uneasy, awkward, if there was a thing she hated, it was being observed closely and carefuly from other people.

- What are you thinking, so solemnly?- Seuhyung asked, if the kid wasn't walking beside he could thing he was a doll, he didn't make any sound since they left the  alleyway, 20 minutes before
 
- It doesn't concern you- the kid said coldly

- You are a  student of Confucianism, didn't you learned how to respect your seniors?

- It doesn't concern you, hyungnim- he said and kept walking, he had to hold a sigh, and tried again

- Your mother is scary- « like you», he thought, the kid just ignored him- how old are you, nothing, it's okay, a man doesn't need to talk too much

He could swear the kid said, « so, why do you?»

And Yoo Jung thought that, she just didn't realised she had talked out loud

« Why is he following me?»

- Can you stop stalking me?- Yoo Jung said exasperated 

- I'm not actually following you kid, I just have to take same pace as you

- Then, can you walk in front of me?

- I'm not going to attack you, so you don't need to get  feisty

- Who are you calling feisty, you fussy dandy

- You, getting all worked up and being unreasonable like a girl

- You called me a girl, you're insulting me- Yoo Jung said enraged

- Well, you did just called me "dandy", apologize to me, if you do that I'll apologize to you too for calling you a girl, although, you're really pretty, the closer I get to you the prettier you get- He said  pensive, then he stopped in front of Yoo Jung and bend until his face was even with hers, he held her chin and studied her face, she stepped back uneasy, trying to appear more  nonchalantly than she really was, she chuckled scornfully

-  You like men, who you'd thought, the famous Yi Seuhyung is a .

Yoo Jung wasn't a soldier,  and she was not as qualified as Jin when it comes tohand-to-hand combat, but she would considered she was perfectly capable of defending herself against  an attack, if she seen it coming, what didn't happened, she didn't even had finished the sentence and she had her back on the clay wall and a knife on

- Rescind your insult, now, I can let pass you calling me a common dandy, but when it comes to my honor

- Aalright, alright, I'm sorry, I crossed the line, but you did it first, calling a man girl as the same impact that calling a man ...

- I could kill you- he said yet with the knife close to her

- Are you sure?- she said, he followed her eyes and the realised she had a knife on his «best friend», he raised his ars and slowly moved away from Yoo Jung

- Alright, you're right, I apologize about that, I was trying to make a joke, usually my friends wouldn't mind

- Are you certain they don't

- What do you mean?

- Nevermind, I need to get back- she said and as if the little  interplay between the twoo never happened, she turned her back on him and headed to the school

- Wait kid- he ran after her- how you're going to get in, do you have a secret passage, do you, come on, I want to know, I can use one

- I do not have any secret passages

- For someone who don't talk much, you answered very quickly, so how are you going to get through «mad Yong»?

- I will find a way- she said boastful

- I'll help you

- Why?

- Make up for ruining your night and put a blade to your throat- he said casualy- Come with me, he said holding her hand and dragging her after him

- You late- « mad Yong», the  dumb mouth thug, that worked as the gate keeper at the academy said in his tough way

- Sorry, I thought my brother had spoken to the headmaster- Seuhyung said in such an inocent tone that, she could respect and want to learn if 10 minutes ago he didn't had a knife on

- Yes young master, you have authorization, I am talking about him- he pointed his head to Yoo Jung

- oh, this friend, he went with me, my brothers are worried about the attacks and they don't want me to go out alone at night, so I took this friend with me- he said putting his arm around Yoo Jung shoulders, she shoved him with a shrung ...

« This friend» she wasn't his friend, then she realised,  he did not know her name, the arrogant bastard, Yoo Jung restrained a sigh of contempt , but  she let it pass, anything if she didn't had to talk or make excuses to that block head, Yong

- Oh, I see, all right, you can come in ...- she didn't even let him finished, she wanted to get away from that psyco as fast as possible, her neck was itching, but she wouldn'd dare to touch it near that person

- See, easy- he kept after her- aren't you going to thank me?

- Thank you. I owe you one.- she said sharply

- Oh,- he took his hand to his heart, in a fake choked up voice- no need, my pleasure.

- I insist, I don't like owing anyone anything

- Then we are going to enter an endless cycle, because I don't like to owe anyone either...

- Okay then, thank you, if you need anything, count on me- once again she intended to get the hell away from him

- You know what,  I like you- he said putting his arm over her shoulder, again

- What?- « what the hell is wrong with this person»

- You are my kind of person, quiet, prideful, and you seem to be  loyal, I think we need someone like you

- We, need?- that caught Yoo Jung's attention

- Come closer
