ANGELA
After 4 long hours of the trip, I’ve finally arrived at Incheon Airport. I’m currently here at the baggage claim area, waiting for my luggage to appear. I was lost in my thoughts as I was busy thinking of a place to stay at before I resort to sleeping out on the streets, when I suddenly caught sight of my pink luggage. I immediately claimed it and successfully made my way out of the sea of people crowding around the area. With shaking hands, I grab my luggage and follow the flow of people heading to where I suppose is the exit. I was busy wandering around, observing my new surroundings when I unknowingly bumped onto someone. I was about to say my apologies when our eyes suddenly locked the moment he took his shades off. Oh wow. He’s so handsome! To be honest, I’ve never seen such a person to be this…exquisite looking. I seem to be at lost for words even more as he flashes me that chic smile of his. I smile at him in return, as I remove my gaze from him. He is just too stunning. He has a slightly wavy hair that suits him very well and has a pretty fair complexion. Milky white skin to be exact. “I’m sorry.” I say as I try to look up at him again. He still has that dazzling smile on, two deep dimples appearing on both of his flawless cheeks, as he nods his head at me. GAH! He’s so beautiful. “It’s okay.” He reassures me as he reaches down the floor to pick up my handkerchief, which I didn’t notice to have fallen from my grasp. “So, I suppose you’re a tourist here.” He says in a cute English accent as he gives me my hankie back. More like a runaway girl. But… it’s not like I can say that to a stranger, right? “Ah, yes, yes. I am.” I chuckle, trying to shake off the nervousness that I’m feeling. “Thank you.” I take the piece of cloth from him and the tips of our fingers have slightly brush off one another. I feel all the blood in my body rushing up to my cheekbones. I hope he didn’t see that. I put my handkerchief inside my jeans’ pocket as I hear him say, “Let me guess. It’s your first time here in Korea. Am I right?” “Yea!” I reply with a grin. Ugh, I feel so lame with my response. One-liners. Tch. Come on, Angela! Is that all you can say? “How did you know?” I ask, attempting to sound totally thrilled. He snickers at me, his eyes wrinkling as he does so. “You look totally lost.” Oh come on! Am I really that obvious? My body stiffens as I see him come closer to me. He leans toward my ears as he whispers, “Do you need some help?” For some reasons I’m starting to feel uncomfortable. No matter how good-looking he is, it doesn’t guarantee that he’s a nice guy too. Looks CAN be deceiving. Oh my gosh! What if it’s like that one movie I watched before? It’s where the daughter lied to her father about attending an educational trip to Paris with her cousin but the truth was they’re going to see a concert of their favourite band. When they arrived at Paris, a handsome guy befriended them and offered them help at the airport. Well, they fell into the trap of this handsome person who turned out to be working for a women trafficking syndicate. Of course, I don’t want to end up in that kind of scenario. Okay, keep calm. Focus, Angela. DO NOT FALL FOR HIS CHARMS! I take a look at him once more and…I couldn’t help but feel guilt
