Hymn For The Broken[Luhan POV]
"I am being serious! A squirrel chased me inside my house when I was a child!" Kris exclaimed, laughing the entire time. I had to cover my face from laughing so hard to the point no noise came out.
"Oh my God that's great" I gasped out, slowly trying to stop laughing and focus on my breathing. Kris shook his head and let out a small snort.
"Being terrorized by a squirrel is not great; thank you" Kris chuckled and sat up in his chair. "Now tell me something funny that happened to you as a kid Lu" he quirked an eyebrow.
