Tiffany’s POV

Sitting in a small unknown restaurant with Mark, acting like we’re not famous, just Seunghyun and Miyoung, he’s still wearing his hoodie, he lend me his cap to hide my identity well and both of us were still wearing our respective thick-rimmed glasses.

He ordered some kimbaps, dukbokki, bulgogi, ramyun and some beefs to be grilled. Wow, never knew he could eat in this kind of place. We were sitting on the restaurants corner so we won’t catch any attention (?). Sitting adjacent to him, I could see him eat gorgeously in front of me. I am already full seeing him eat like that. OMG no, damn. I shook my head and shooed away those thoughts, it gave me shivers.

“I thought you’re hungry? Then why aren’t you eating?” He asked

I was actually being shy, when two people eat out together, whether they are acquaintances or friends, it is considered a date, right?

He took some already grilled beef with his chopsticks and put it on my bowl.

Oh damn

I’ll eat now

Just don’t do that gentleman act again, please. It’s killing me.

We were just quietly eating, and wow, the food in here’s too good. I forgot to thank him on the grilled beef

“T-thank you…” I mumbled

I heard him chuckle

“Why are you stuttering? Am I that scary?” He asked

No I wasn’t being scared you bingu, I was being shy

“You’re intimidating” I said all of a sudden. What the

I lowered down my head a bit and continue to eat the ramyun. Damn. I took some bibimbap and dukbokki and stuffed it in my mouth. Making me

“W-water” I said as I hit my chest, I am choking! I took the glass of water and gulp it in a go. “Ehem, Aigoo” That was close! And there’s Ahjussi just laughing, omg thank you. Are you that happy that I am choking and about to die? Geez

“You’re funny, why did you even stuff your mouth with so much food?” He asked and he continued munching his food

Then his phone starts to ring again.

I’m secretly watching him do stuffs, how would he answer the phone call if his mouth is full? He looks like a hamster who stuffed his mouth with sunflower seeds. But he still managed to swallow the food and answer it

“Oh, Jiyong”

OMG its GEEDEE Oppar

“I’m in Kangwondo, we—

“I mean I got lost here, I’LL just figure out the way later, I’m currently eating, stop bothering me, what? No, I’m not with her”

Who’s ‘her’?

“I’ll call you back once I am home, what? No, I can’t, I’ll hang up” He slip the phone back to his pocket

Then he inquisitively looks at me.

I was like: o_o

He was like: ._.

I avoided his gaze; I just figured out that I’m obviously observing him.

He took another grilled beef and puts it on my bowl again

“Eat” He said and finishes the food he is eating

Tiffany Hwang, did you save an entire empire in your past life?

************

So finally by the help of some directions and locals, we’re heading back to the city! And we were both quiet during the car ride; I guess he’s too tired. He paid our dinner, treat me some ice cream for dessert, Yes, he did that. From now on, I’ll be calling him a new name: Ice cream man!

Can I say that I spent one of the last days of my vacation, wisely? I brought my phone out and secretly, like a stalker, took a picture of him while driving. I don’t know why I did that!

“Uhm, Mark-ssi, I would like to thank you for treating me food, and again, sorry for the inconveniences I am causing. Sorry for bothering you at the bar—

“Don’t be”

I was hauled by what he said and slowly diverted my gaze to him

“I-I had fun.” He said, stuttering, he’s being shy admitting that he did had fun-- Being with me. Awww. He cleared his throat, “But I missed one special dinner because of you, so you owe me a lot.” He added, his eyes still fixed on the road

“Unlike what other people say, you seem warm… probably the warmest ice ever…” Did I just say those words? Stephie, saying that is like confessing that you like him

I didn’t hear any response from him so I tried peeking,

OMG for cucumber’s sake, he’s smiling so gorgeously, seeing his smile made me beam too, a shy beam to be exact. We were both smiling.

Oh damn, my heart’s beating too fast

*************

Since that day on, The Choi and The Hwang became good buddies? Tiffany’s not sure about it since The Choi tends to have many mood swings, one day he’ll be super nice, the other day he’ll make you feel like he don’t know you at all. They send each other messages, and their conversations will always be weird, example?
