Nah… It’ll be kind of awkward, and it isn’t too dark yet.

“Thanks, but I’ll walk alone” I answered smiling and trying to be as polite as I could.

Zico smiled and sighed, “OK, then be careful on your way back”

“Yes mom” I joked

He chuckled, “See ya tomorrow”

I nodded and Zico started to walk away.

“Zico!” I yelled; he turned and looked at me

“Thanks for today”

He smiled, “It’s nothing”. He turned again and kept walking.

I started to walk towards my house, starting to get more and more nervous as it got dark really fast.

Maybe I should have accepted his offer…

Suddenly, I accidentally crushed my shoulder with a guy, making him turn at me and give me the meanest look ever.

“Yah! Be careful!”

“I-I’m sorry” I apologized and lifted a bit my head.

The guy looked at me big eyed as I started to walk away the fastest I could.

He took me by my hand, stopping me.

“Hey, I know you”

Shivers ran down through my spine and, in a reflex act, I slapped the guy and started to run.

“Aish! H-Hey! Aniya, I’m not a !” he ran too and stopped me again

“Let me go!” I yelled

“C-Calm down” he chuckled, “I’m in your class”

I looked at him and realized he had my same school uniform.

A big sigh came out of my mouth and my body got relaxed.

Then, I realized that I hit a classmate and blushed.

“I-I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to-“

“Don’t worry” the guy chuckled, “I understand. I’m Kyung by the way, and if I’m not wrong, you’re _____~, right?”

I smiled shyly, “Yes I am”

Kyung smiled back, “You’re prettier than what I remembered”

“Thanks” I blushed even more

“So why is a pretty girl walking alone in the streets at night?”

I cleared my throat, “I was hanging with a friend and it got kind of late so I was heading back to my house and it got dark… So, yeah…”

He chuckled, “Want me to accompany you?”

Actually, it’s not a bad idea since I’m scared the out.

“Ok!” I smiled at him. I’m pretty sure I saw his cheeks getting a little red, but I can’t be sure since he looked away quickly.

“Let’s go then” we started to walk one beside the other.

“Look at the stars, they’re so bright!” I walked looking at the sky full of the prettiest stars I’ve ever seen.

“Yeah, they are. But please look while you walk, I bet you’re gonna end up tripping over-“

I lost all my balance as I stepped over my shoelaces and my face hit the floor.

“Something…” Kyung ended his sentence.

“Ow… It hurts” I complaint as I sat on the ground.

Kyung ducked beside me, “Are you OK? Aish, you have a scratch on your cheek”

He approaches to my face looking at that scratch. I blushed and looked at him a bit embarrassed.

Kyung realized how near he was and moved away a bit.

“Hum…” He looked away and took his handkerchief out of his pocket; then, he started to clean up the blood from my cheek.

“T-Thanks”

“It’s nothing” Now he really was blushed.

We arrived to my house and stood in front of the entrance door.

We looked at each other’s eyes.

“So… See you tomorrow I guess”

I chuckled, “Deh…”

I don’t really want to say goodbye yet, It’s really fun to be with him…

Would it be too sly if I invite him to come in for a while?

Invite him

Better see each other tomorrow [coming soon]
