Dara POV

 “ Cat got your tongue?”, he continued, smiling genuinely.

I blinked. Obviously I don’t know how to react. I was always told not to talk to strangers. For all I know they were just kidnappers, swindlers, erts, you knew what I mean. Yeah! I’m dirty minded like that… But you can’t blame me for trying to be careful! I’m the sole heiress of the Parks anyway. But there is something in this boy that makes want to trust him. He seems sincere.

“ Aish! Just take my handkerchief”, he said shoving his red hanky in my hand. “ What made you cry pretty miss?”

“ I…I’m pretty?”. Yeah right! I’m sounding pathetic right now! There goes my low self esteem! But it’s not the time to be choosy! I definitely need a boost right now and if this stranger can be of help so be it!

“Well, if you take these glasses,  fix this hair, change these clothes…” he motioned  his hands…. “ and oh! After you passed puberty stage with the pimples and all…” he smirked… “ You will be absolutely stunning!”, he finished with a wide grin.

“ Why you! “Dara huffed and slap Jiyong’s arm.

“ Hey, at least you will be stunning later! You will break the heart of the bastard who insulted you today… it is a compliment ‘ya know…”, he wiped my tears with his thumb.

I blushed at his gesture. This one is a smooth talker. I smiled. He can be one psychic too… How did he know ?

“ How did you know…that…?”, I mumbed.

“I just knew it… intuition I guess… it’s a gift”, he sighed and sit beside me in the swing. “  See your now smiling! You are more beautiful when you smile!”

“ You’re just flattering me…  He said I’m not pretty… and that I’m annoying…”

“Now, now… Don’t let other people’s view of you define who you are… Remember you should be your own best friend not your own worst critic… Got that? You should have confidence and respect to yourself befor
