chapter eleven: "lunch date?"

Donghae looked at Dara, not saying a word to her and started to pull her with him. He didn't have anything to say to her because he couldn't think of what to say to her. He just pulled her with him without thinking of what he should even do. He just wanted to be alone with her. But he knew that would not actually be fully possible because Dara had her friend with her. "Aish..." he muttered as he looked at Bom. "Can I have a moment with her?" he asked.
