 Ara     The sirens of ambulances resonated in Ara's ears. However, it was already too late. Not for all of them but for the driver of the red car, it was indeed too late. His phantom was standing right next to the car desperately trying to take out his kids sitting on the back seats of the car. The fact that he had just passed away didn't seem to have sinked into his brain. He had yet to realize that his attempts wouldn't change anything. Soon afterwards, the specter of another person came into Ara's line of vision. This time, it was the female from the other car. She stood immobile, wondering what had just happened. Hanbin hugged Ara tightly thus the accident in front of me wasn't perceivable anymore. Seeing ghosts had become a regular tendency since long ago. Nonetheless, witnessing death this way hadn't been common. “We should go” Hanbin gasped as he noticed the bodies being transported in the ambulance.   *** Sitting in the corner of a coffee shop, Ara hoped the last event didn't occur. Having her first date with Hanbin, she didn't want something like that to happen. Due to this, all she could think about was the infortunate incident. The sight of the man trying to help his children's without knowing that he wasn't alive anymore kept on haunting her. Moreover, the thought of the kids waking up to the news of no longer having a father shattered Ara's heart. “Everything already happened, thinking about it won't change anything” her inner voice reminded her and for once she decided to listen to it. “There you go” Hanbin smiled as he deposed the drinks on the table.  “Thanks” Ara smiled back, she was grateful that Hanbin brought her at this coffee shop. It was a very small shop located on the second floor of a small building. Everything was made of wood which resulted to a very particular feeling of comfort. Hanbin's phone rung a while after they begin to talk. He excused himself as he stood up and went to talk to the person on the other side of the line.  She glanced over to see him gesticulating and smiling from time to time and wondered who he was talking to.   “I leave for a while and come back to find out you're dating him” The person Ara had completely forgotten about spoke. “Wasn't my warning clear enough?”   Junseo.    Ara turned her head around to face him. He was sitting at Hanbin's place and looking at his facial expressions, he didn't seem very glad about the news of Ara being in a relationship with the leader of ikon. “Junseo” the female spoke too late. He disappeared within seconds as Hanbin, on the other hand, came back.  “Sorry” he apologetically said. “It was my mom, she finds out about us and was totally mad that I kept this information from her.  “Oh” I articulated not knowing what to say.  “She wants to meet you” Hanbin then added. “We can go whenever you'd like to” “I'd love to meet your mother” Ara affirmed in all honestly. Though, she was a little scared. “What if she doesn't like me?” she thought out loud. “Ara” Hanbin stopped drinking his coffee and looked straight in Ara's eyes. “She will adore you” “How can you be so sure?” “Because I adore you too” He quickly asserted. Like it has something to do with his mother.    ***   After twenty minutes of debating, they both headed to Hongdae which seemed to be the best place to wander aimlessly.
