Let's Not Fall In Love

Jiyong gently nudged Dara awake as the call for their train was announced. Dara drowsily took off the head wrap. Like a little kid she rubbed the sleep off her eyes. Then she stood up on her toes, stretched up towards the ceiling. 

The act reminded  him of their shared childhood pet cat, Dadoong. The cat would stretch just like her everytime he wakes up from a nap. Jiyong smiled at her. She smiled back in automatic response but then she remembered how she lost precious hours of sleep because of him. Her smile swiftly morphed into a scowl. As most of her scowls, it was a fail. It was paired with her bed head and the slightly red sleep lines going down one cheek. She only succeeded in looking more adorkable in Jiyong’s eyes.

Jiyong chuckled at her causing her brows to furrow. She scowled at him more knowing without a doubt that she was the source of his amusement. He reached out and lightly combed his fingers through her silky hair. She squirmed and opened to protest but Jiyong’s words stopped her, “Remember what I said earlier about what I would do if you raise your voice? Don’t move. I’m just trying to make you look less crazy than usual.” 

He smoothed the errant strands of hair on her head. “Your head looks like an empty bird’s nest after a storm.” She shut but her flared nostrils and the heightened color of her ears were proof of her irritation.

A few minutes later after they have boarded the train, Jiyong scratched his head in frustration. Dara refused to talk. So typical of her to go over the top with her reaction to his threat. He talked to her but she responded only with hand gestures, shrugs, nods and shakes of the head. After a few failed attempts at trying to make her talk he was starting to get frustrated.

‘Let’s see who’s going to last longer? If you think you can threaten me, Kwon Jiyong, then you can think again. I’m going to drown you in peace and quiet until you scream yourself. Mwahahaha.’ She laughed manically inside her head at Jiyong. The tables have turned in her favor and she was loving it as she smiled maddeningly at the telltale redness in his ears. The dragon is fuming. His ears were turning a darker red when he saw her smiling crazily at him. She stuck her tongue out at him. 

“What are you four?” Jiyong sniped at her childish act. She only smiled at his frustration before tinkering with her phone. He also took his phone out and browsed through his IG account to let off some steam. 

He looked at her. She raised her brows at his glance and gave him a seemingly innocent smile. “Until when are you going to keep this miming act?” he asked.

She just shrugged and continued smiling to his frustration. He was tempted to take back his threat earlier for peace’s sake but he refused to be the one to admit defeat. He took a deep breath and sat back for the rest of the train ride. He’d let her think he gave up but in truth he was only scheming. Dara looked suspiciously at his seemingly calm aura. He was plotting she was sure but she was not giving up without a fight either. 

She found something online that made her smile. After a few seconds, she posted the picture with the #currentmood as its caption. It was a quote. “The most dangerous animal is a smiling woman sitting in silence.” Then she sat back and started counting backwards from ten. He did not disappoint. 

She was counting down to number four when she heard Jiyong scoff at her side. She smirked. He saw it. She turned sideways and stared mockingly at the muttering Jiyong, “Pfft. Dangerous? Huh! She’s freaking delusional.” He spok

I'm having writer's block with Finding Jiyong. I'm not in the right state of mind to write angst yet. But they said to get out of writer's block you still have to keep on writing. So my writing exercise today made me come up with this bonus chap. But unfortunately, still none for Finding Jiyong.
