Hyo Joo was biting her lips. Sitting on her couch, she felt how her heart was racing. How could that be?

Still it felt weird, whenever she was posting another one of her pictures. She caught herself checking every English word about 50 times, before she released it. It felt for her still quite weird to be a person of interest.

People would probably laugh about that. She was a famous actress, after all. But behind this, as cheesy as it sounded, she was a girl. An ordinary and insecure girl. She wanted to be taken serious and she wanted people to like her for how she really was.

He had helped her a lot. He was in so many ways more open than her, while in other terms she was lighter spirited than him. One could have said, they were a perfect match, if one knew. But no one knew, and she was actually glad about it, still.

In this second her phone was buzzing in her hands, and she realized immediately who it was.

Wow.

She flushed. Everywhere in her face, and on her neck, she could feel the same heat rising. She was very glad he couldn’t see her right now, as… her breath stopped, and her smile became wider.

Stop blushing. I want to kiss you.

Miles away, Jong Suk was grinning himself, as he saw the read message. He knew exactly what she looked like right now. He could see her eyes and her lips, he could see her, angry because he wasn’t around to let himself be hit by her, so that she could hide her embarrassment. He leaned back in his chair, at the counter of his café and looked up to the clock. He was thinking. His tongue was sticking out to help him with his thoughts. And then, everything was decided.

Jong Suk grabbed the keys and got up.
