THIRD MONTH IN THE HUMAN WORLD

"Dara, where do you want to go?" Nichkhun asked while driving.

"You decide." Dara answered.

"Wanna go to the amusement park?"

Dara's eyes sparkled. "The place with rides and games?" She asked.

Nichkhun nodded.

"That would be fun."

"To the amusement park then."

"Are they selling chocolate ice cream there?" She asked.

"Yes. There are actually different flavors to choose from."

Dara clapped her hands in excitement.

"You never fail to amaze me, Dara. It seems to me that there are a lot of things you haven't experienced yet. You get curious with small things and become excited with simple experiences." Nichkhun smiled, still focused on the road.

"Life shouldn't be about extravagant things, Nichkhun. It's about valuing what you already have. Happiness can be caused by simple things.

"So that's a no already?" Nichkhun looked hurt.

"No, no, no. Don't get me wrong Nichkhun. You're a good man and a lot of girls would love to have you as a partner... Girls you deserve... with the same status as you."

"Don't I have the right to choose who I want?"

"Of course you have... But sometimes, although it's what you want, there are circumstances that will hinder you from having it."

Nichkhun sighed. "Let's forget that I told you I like you. Let's not ruin what we have." He forced a smile.

"Sorry Nichkhun." She held his hand that's on his lap.

"Don't be sorry. Let's just not talk about it. Change topic... Just happy thoughts."

Dara squeezed Nichkhun's h
