Baby U - Teen Top http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PFcGpfzKRk   --------------------- Narrator’s P.O.V:     The sky cast a murky shadow over the silent city.   Seoul definitely wasn’t a quiet or empty place at all, so it was peculiar that it seemed like one from so high up.   As chilly as it was, the urban breeze made Miyoung’s head cool down a bit. Truthfully, she couldn’t sleep at all last night, and her heart still constricted with anxiety.   It was difficult to register that L. Joe would be gone soon.   Not wanting to think about it anymore, she closed her eyes and let the wind flow through her. No matter how many times she tried to inhale and exhale, the heaviness in her chest still remained.   *What do I do to get rid of this nervousness?* Miyoung wondered to herself. *What can I do to stop feeling this way?*   “You can start by not running away from every problem you have,” a voice began.   That voice made her eyes snap open and peer up at the figure in front of her in surprise. *How did he….*   Byunghun stood in front of her, gaze tightly locked onto hers, as he stared at her with a half-relieved, half-stern expression.   “B-Byunghun…” Her voice almost cracked.   The blonde’s expression immediately softened as he bent down to her eye level. She was sitting on the floor, gazing at him with wide, disbelieving eyes, as he reached out for her red scarf that was loosely draped around her neck and adjusted it.   “Dummy,” he whispered, voice dripping with affection, “The next time you want to keep something to yourself, it’d be a good idea to not say it out loud.”   The stunned Miyoung blinked quickly as that began to register in her mind. L. Joe sweetly smiled and retracted his hands from her, shoving them into his jacket pockets. Miyoung was surprised at the loss she felt.   “What were you doing out here, anyway?” The blonde murmured, “It’s cold outside, you know.”   She looked away and tried not to look him straight in the eye, in fear that she may shed a few tears. The fair maiden was well aware of his stare and she was literally a touch away from him, but the distance between them felt so insurmountable.   “I wanted to think,” she cleared when her voice became shaky.   L. Joe sensed her tense tone of voice and exhaled quietly. Swiftly, Miyoung felt fingers graze her chin and guide her head to face the android straight in the eyes.   Eyes that were familiar, warm, brown, and truthful.   She bit her lip to stop it from quivering. She had no idea why her body was reacting so strangely like this, but it had to end.   Funny, because even though everything had looked so dark and dreary just moments ago, Byunghun still looked heavenly, even with his eyebrows furrowed in deep thought and his lips pursed in a firm line. She didn’t understand how anyone who knew about the evaders, chasers and healers could have mistaken him for a human. The dip of his cheekbones and the swift hook of his nose… All of them looked so tempting and so obviously inhumane.   But why was it that even though she had more than a million things to say to him, all Miyoung could think of was his exquisite beauty?   Her ears were already starting to burn up. Embarrassed, she tried to pry away from his grip, but Byunghun stayed firm. When it came to strength between him and her, it was a no-brainer.   “Can I be honest with you?”   Miyoung was flabbergasted, “H-Huh?” When he didn’t reply, she tried to stabilize herself, “Byunghun, what are you—“   “Just hear me out, okay?” He cut her off quietly. Miyoung’s mouth shut as quickly as it opened. He drew in a breath and Miyoung noticed his gaze flicker shamefully to the ground before flitting up to her face.     “As soon as I opened my eyes that morning that you found me, I knew that I was an Andromeda,” he slowly began. “It was programmed into me – undeniable and absolute code. I didn’t know what being an Andromeda meant because of my hazy memory, but I knew for sure that I wasn’t human. If I told you that I was an Andromeda right off the bat, I was afraid it would scare you off, so I said nothing because I remembered nothing of my past, accepting my new life as a simple android.”   Miyoung waited with her eyebrows pinched together.   “I was wholeheartedly willing to behave like any other average android,” he continued, “Do chores, clean, cook, and above all, follow orders from my master. Basically, I was ready to be treated like a slave – most androids built for personal use are like that. For busy evaders, such as scientists, androids are like servants and maids. I fully accepted being that kind of existence for my master. But you…” The blonde’s voice began to die down to a hush as he gazed at her.   “You stunned me.” He admitted sheepishly, “Remember? The first time we formally met? The first thing you tried to do when I said that you were my master
