DARA POV

Oh crap… this is embarrassing

“This yours?” he asked raising the manga.

Inner Dara: Deny it Dara!! Deny it!!

Wait… why would I deny it? I didn’t commit a crime!!

Inner Dara: But that’s embarrassing!! He’ll think you’re a ert!!

He’s a guy!! He reads all the time which is worse!! Mine is a love story with few…rated uh scenes of…of guys.

Inner Dara: Exactly!! See?! He’d think you’re a psycho!

Why would he think that? And why would I care huh?!

“Eherm”

I snapped out of my heated debate with Inner Dara & looked up at him. He stared back rather….amused? The corner of his lips curved into a small smile as he stepped forward.

OH.FREAKING.SHEEZ!

I panicked & stepped back.

He stepped forward again.

I stepped back again.

He stepped forward.

I stepped back.

He stopped.

His amused smirk vanished & replaced with a bored frown.

“Why do you keep stepping back?” he asked.

“W-why you k-keep stepping STOP!!” I screamed as he started to move forward again.

“What’s your problem lady?” he asked. Irritation obvious in his tone.

“I DON’T KNOW!! YOU!! WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM?!” I screamed again & catch my breath after.

I don’t know why I kept screaming. I just found myself doing it. 

He sighed in frustration & held up the manga.

I looked at the manga & then I remembered!! He picked up my manga & was merely returning it. And here I am acting like he’d pounce on me.

Oh crap… this is really embarrassing.

I bowed in embarrassment & started explaining still bowed low.

“I’m really really sorry stranger-shii!! I thought you’re a ert..uh… that’s wrong right cause you don’t look a bit like a ert in fact you look really hot...I Mean..good...a good guy... that’s just my weird imagination running again. You have to know that I have a very active & weird imagination so Ow!!”

I was explaining all in a hurry when I felt him stepped forward & lightly hit the manga on my head. I straightened & looked at him.

“Be more mindful of what you do. I saw you fell last night & trip today… I’m surprised your face is still scratch free & your body intact with all the abuse it took” He said in a flat voice & started walking away.

“Wait!! So that means you’re forgiving me?” I shouted.

He merely waved, not looking back & walked again.

I sighed in relief & continued walking to the park. I already sat at one of the stone benches when I remembered something.

I didn’t ask for his name!! Why is he here? Is he a new neighbor or merely a relative of one of my neighbors? But I know everyone & he don’t look a bit like any of them…and what about the other gorgeous guy he’s with last night?!

I sighed again & opened the manga as countless questions circled my head but soon got lost in the story.

- 3 hrs. later-

I stopped reading when my stomach started their usual rebellion. I looked at my watch. 11:00 already?! No wonder I’m hungry!

I stretched, got up & jogged back home.

“I’m back!! Everyone wake-”

“DAARAAAAA!!!!”

I covered my ears & braced myself as my bominator twin came charging towards me & started shaking me violently while ranting about something.

“Bom Noona stop that… Dara noona will faint from the shaking you’re doing to her” Sanghyun said while calmly pulling Bom away from me.

“Thanks Gaetong-ah!!” I heaved a sigh of relief as I got out of Bom’s clutches & chuckled softly as his face turned sour but didn’t comment as he continued comforting & wiping Bom’s tear-stained face.

“What’s wrong Bommie? What happened here?”

“Choco *hick* Choco!! Choco!!” She continuously ranted still sobbing loudly.

“Why? What happened to that mutt? Did he got run over finally? Ow!!” Bom hit me & glared sharply before resuming to her pitiful crying.

“He’s missing since this morning & we can’t find him…we’ve searched everywhere but still there’s no sight of him” Sanghyun explained.

“Ah” I said nodding.

“What do you mean “Ah” he’s missing!!! My poor Choco is out there all alone!!” Bom wailed.

I rolled my eyes... this girl can be really over dramatic sometimes.

“Bom…as much as I hate that mutt, I know he’s fine. He always does that & come back here right? Besides everyone here knows him & if ever they find that mutt they’ll return him”

“Really? You think he’ll be okay?” Bom asked sniffing loudly.

“Yes Really, now stop crying cause it’s becoming disgusting & let’s eat okay?” I said before patting her head.

She sniffed loudly again before nodding & walked to the kitchen.

Finally!! I thought she'll never stop

I heaved a sigh of relief as I followed them.
