CHAPTER TWO: CAFE
IT ALL STARTED WITH A BIG BANG
He told me that he knew a nice casual cafe that was near where we were, so we went there for lunch. On the way there we talked about where I was from and my family. He kept on asking me questions about everything, he seemed really curious for some reason. He smiled at me, “Here we are.” He went and opened the door and let me in before him. “Wow, this is a nice place”, I said. The caféhad a cool atmosphere, it was quiet but there was jazz music playing in the background. “Shall we sit here then.” He signalled to a table, and I nodded and sat down. We both looked at the menus and decided what to get. We both ordered noodles and a coffee. Our food came and we started to eat. I noticed that he was eating very slowly and elegantly. I think that he must’ve been eating that way because I was there and he didn’t want to make a bad first impression. Every so often our eyes would meet and we’d look at each other for a few seconds and start eating again. We barely talked but just ate instead. “Is yours tasty?” he asked. I looked up from my food and answered, “Yeah it’s really delicious actually, yours?” He smiled as he said, “I’m glad to hear that and yeah mines delicious too. So have you heard any of Big Bang’s music before?” I realised that he didn’t know at all, how much of a fan-girl of Big Bang I was. I remembered that he said that he would never date a fan and thought that perhaps I should lie, but I really don’t like telling lies. “Well honestly, this is kind of embarrassing but I’ve heard every single Big Bang song there is.” He didn’t seem to mind at all and instead we talked about his music with Big Bang for around an hour until we left the Cafe
I was walking and I tripped and fell on my foot, it was incredibly painful. Tears started to fall from my eyes. He crouched down and looked at me concerned. “Don’t cry, It’s going to be ok.” He wiped a tear away from my face and said, “Your ankle looks really painful, do you think you can get up?” I thought for a second. My ankle was really painful and I thought my chances of actually being able to stand up were pretty slim but I tried anyway. “Yeah.. I think I might be able to.” I tried to push myself up from the ground and was standing for around a second and started to fall but he caught me. “Whoa there, I don’t think you’re going to be able to stand up. Do you want me to carry you?” I paused for a second. Did he really just offer to carry me? I couldn’t believe my ears. “Yes,” I shyly replied, “but I am really heavy.” He picked me up and I draped my arms around his shoulders. I never thought that I would be this close to his neck. “You know you're light as a feather. Anyway, what am I going to do with you? I can’t leave you alone but I have to work this evening. How about I take you back to my apartment?” At this point I had to pinch myself. I couldn't believe this wasn’t a dream. I replied, “Well um sure but I don’t want to trouble you.
