Chapter 17 - Maybe I'm in Love With You...

Yonghwa groaned before allowing himself to sit on the bench. He was tired, big time. He had been jogging around the park while at the same time keeping a lookout for Seohyun for almost twenty minutes. He had even separated himself from his brother, thinking that it would be faster for him to find Seohyun if he was alone.

Yonghwa sighed before standing up again and started with his jog. He needed to find Seohyun soon. He only had less than forty minutes to find her. Yonghwa jogged until he reached the place where he had first met Seohyun; the oak tree. Yonghwa smiled before allowing his hand to touch the bark of the oak tree. He closed his eyes as his mind flashed back to the very first time they spoke to each other. This was their place. This was part of their memory.

Yonghwa chuckled as he thought about the time when they were looking for Seohyun’s missing anklet which they fortunately found just under the tree. The tree had witnessed everything about them; from their awkward start, to their friendly conversation, to their endless flirting. Yonghwa felt blessed. He felt lucky to meet Seohyun, knowing her, loving her. Adding to that, Seohyun felt the same love for him and he was thankful for that.

Yonghwa woke up from his reverie when he suddenly heard that familiar jingle of bells. He felt as if it was Monday afternoon once again, like the time he heard those sounds while he was busy resting by the oak tree, looking over at the lake. No doubt, it was Seohyun who was wandering somewhere near the oak tree. Yonghwa thought fast. He could not let Seohyun see him first. So he did something which he though he would never do in his life. He climbed the oak tree. ‘Hell! If I could climb the roof, this tree should be much easier!’ Yonghwa grinned as he continued climbing.

***

Seohyun pouted. She felt dumped suddenly. Joori had left her alone the moment she spotted Tony walking towards the playground. Joori had wanted to observe Tony from afar before allowing him to find her. Seohyun on the other hand, had not spotted Yonghwa yet. She was busy looking for him all around the park as well but to no avail.

Seohyun wondered if Yonghwa was looking for her as well or he had given half-way and went back home. Seohyun thought she would burst out in tears if Yonghwa really did went home, leaving her.

Seohyun sighed as she continued walking along the pavement. Soon she realized that she was heading near the oak tree where the lake was in full view. Finally she smiled as she took in the beautiful scenery before her. She remembered the first time she had made Yonghwa here. She had no awkwardness on her part. Yonghwa made her feel comfortable and she knew it. She still remembered when he had found her missing anklet and how he had dangled it in front of her face with that silly smile. Seohyun grinned happily. When it was Yonghwa, she only had beautiful memories.

“Yonghwa-yah, where are you?” Seohyun shouted towards the lake before sighing again. She missed him.

“I think you should shout louder. I don’t think I can hear you from here.”

Seohyun jumped back before looking around her in panic. Did she just hear Yonghwa’s voice talking to her? Or was she just plain dreaming because she missed him so much?

“Oi beautiful! I’m up here!”

Seohyun looked up as told and gasped. Yonghwa was there sitting comfortably on one of the thick branch of the oak tree, waving at her. Seohyun gritted her teeth and kicked the tree trunk. “Yah! What are you doing up there?”

Yonghwa grinned and shrugged. “Hiding from you.”

“What excuse is that? You should be the one looking for me you know!” Seohyun folded her arms and glared at Yonghwa.

“I was looking for you.” Yonghwa told her as he climbed down the tree carefully.

“Are you sure? Or have you been sitting up there for the past forty minutes?” Seohyun eyed him curiously as Yonghwa finally landed on the ground safely.

“Sinchia! I was looking for you!” Yonghwa smiled as he took her hand and grasped it tightly. “But when I heard you, I thought of hiding myself first.”

“Heard me?” Seohyun frowned.

“That bell on the anklet. It tells me when you’re near me.” Yonghwa whispered causing Seohyun to pout.

“I think I should get rid of that bell.” Seohyun muttered.

“Wae? Leave the bell alone.” Yonghwa smirked before wrapping his arms around Seohyun’s slender waist.

“I hate you.” Seohyun mumbled again and Yonghwa laughed.

“You know you’re lying.” Yonghwa teased her as he rubbed their noses together.

“I am.” Seohyun blushed.

“Then say it properly.”

“Shiro.” Seohyun shook her head.

“Wae?” Yonghwa asked, his voice low and husky.

“Because you’ll tease me again if I did.” Seohyun shivered when she felt his fingers creating small circles on her back.

“I won’t. I promise.” Yonghwa said, his lips just inches from hers.

“I still don’t want to.” Seohyun told him and he chuckled before rubbing his nose along her jaw and up to her ear.

“Then I won’t kiss you for the whole of today.” Seohyun heard him whispering into her ear.

“No.” Seohyun breathed.

“Then say it.” Yonghwa commanded, his voice still low.

“I-I…”

“I’m waiting.” Yonghwa let out a low growl and Seohyun thought she almost fell due to the nervousness she was feeling at the moment. But luckily Yonghwa had a strong grip on her waist and almost on instinct, Seohyun wrapped her arms around his neck.

“I-I l-love you.” Seohyun whispered, blushing madly.

“I did not catch that.”

“I love you.” Seohyun said it louder before burying her face in Yonghwa’s neck, trying to hide the blush and the shyness she was feeling.

Yonghwa was having the time of his life, teasing Seohyun like he always wanted to. He smirked before allowing his nose to travel to her hair, inhaling her sweet scent. “I love you too.” Yonghwa said into her hair.

“Will you kiss me now?” Seohyun asked shyly, her face still in his neck. Her breath on his skin was making Yonghwa fidget nervously.

“Should I?” Yonghwa decided to tease her again as he tried to fight the nervous feeling of him.

Seohyun pulled back from the embrace and stared at Yonghwa straight in the eye. Then she shrugged. She decided that it was her turn to tease. “Well then, I don’t mind if you don’t want to.”

“What do you mean?” Yonghwa watched as Seohyun pushed his hands off her waist.

“I thought I could continue living without any kisses from you.” Seohyun told him with an innocent expression. “So it’s okay, you can keep your kisses.”

“Well, sadly, I don’t intend to.” Yonghwa said before pulling Seohyun back to him. Seohyun gasped when she felt Yonghwa’s lips on hers and was even more surprised when she felt her lips responding to his kiss.

Seohyun pulled back from the kiss, gasping for air. Yonghwa just grinned and rested his forehead against hers. Seohyun smiled. “That was… breathtaking?” She asked and both of them laughed silly.

“Breathtaking indeed.” Yonghwa nodded.

Seohyun took a look at her watch and gasped. “Ommo! The time is almost up!”

“So?”

“We need to meet the rest at the exit.” Seohyun said as she gently pulled his hand to follow her.

“Yah! Joohyun-ah!” Yonghwa called out and Seohyun turned around to face him. She shot his a confused look causing Yonghwa to chuckle. “Would you like a piggyback ride?”

“Bo? You think I’m a kid?” Seohyun gaped.

“Aigoo! Just get on my back will you.” Yonghwa said as he squatted down and pointed his back to Seohyun.

“Are you sure?’ Seohyun raised an eyebrow.

“Of course I’m sure. Pali! Get on now!”

Seohyun bit her lips before proceeding towards Yonghwa and slowly leaned her body against his back. Yonghwa pulled both her legs at his sides and immediately stood up. Seohyun thought she was about to fall backwards when she quickly grabbed for Yonghwa’s neck causing him to cough suddenly.

“Oppa! Kwenchana?” Seohyun asked worriedly.

“Don’t grab my neck too tight!” Yonghwa said, struggling.

“Ooops!” Seohyun loosened her grip and Yonghwa was alright once again. “Mianhe.”

“It’s okay, anything for my princess.” Yonghwa said with a smirk.

“Aish! That’s too cheesy oppa!” Seohyun laughed.

“Only for you.” Yonghwa replied.

“I love you Yonghwa-yah.” Seohyun said softly.

“I love you too Joohyun-ah.” Yonghwa said and he smiled when he felt Seohyun pressing her lips on top of his hair.

******

Tony kicked a stone he saw in the middle of the pavement. He knew he was walking aimlessly around the park. He had absolutely no idea on where to look for Joori. He took a look at his phone again but sighed when he saw that he had received no message from anyone, even from his girlfriend.

He walked further until he reached a playground which was empty with children. He looked around the area and spotted no one. Tony grinned. It had a while since he had some silly fun by himself. So he walked over towards the steps and climbed up the playground. He chuckled upon seeing how silly he had turned into. He then sat on the slide and slid down. He groaned when he felt his bum hit the ground before standing up and brushed his pants. He then eyed the empty swing and sat on it and started swinging.

Tony hummed a song to himself as he continued swinging. Feeling the breeze hitting his face lightly made him smile. He knew he was supposed to look for Joori but playing here on the swing was much much better then seeking. He shrugged and grinned happily.

***

Joori was peeking at Tony from behind the bushes. It was big enough to cover her entire body and she knew Tony would not be able to spot her from the distance. She grinned as she continued to watch Tony walking towards the playground and at the same time she saw him glancing around him to see if there were any passer-bys.

Joori knew Tony well enough. He was childish and very playful. He loved all the random things which she never expected. Just like now, she knew he was going to start playing the playground. Joori held her breath and her laughter as she watched Tony fidget nervously before climbing up the steps of the playground and went down the slide. Joori almost coughed out huge laughter when she saw Tony bumping onto the ground hard when he went down the slide, but she managed to cover her mouth to stop herself.

Tony was having the time of his life that he did not notice Joori walking past the playground. He had his eyes closed as he enjoyed the breeze from riding the swings. Joori giggled as she sat down on the bench just behind the swings. She decided to help him with the swinging without informing him of her presence. Joori estimated the swinging time properly before moving on forward and pushed the swing up higher.

Tony who suddenly realized that there were hands pushing his back quickly opened up his eyes. He turned his head to see a smirking Joori behind him.

“Jagiya! What are you doing?” Tony asked in shock. The swinging was moving to fast and too high now, all thanks to Joori.

“Are you having fun oppa?” Joori asked with amusement in her eyes.

“Yah! Stop swinging already. This is getting to high!” Tony shouted.

“You enjoy this don’t you? Besides, it’s still too low for me!” Joori squealed.

“Joori-yah, this is seriously too high!” Tony said again. “I’m going to jump if you are not going to stop soon!”

“You won’t jump oppa. I know you won’t.” Joori grinned as she continued pushing him on the swing.

“Yah! I’m really going to jump! And if I jump on a fast moving swing, I’ll get hurt. And if I get hurt, you are going to cry. And when I get hurt, you’ll have to take care of me!” Tony warned but Joori ignored him. “Okay, you’re asking for it.”

Before Joori could answer anything, she watched Tony jumped off the fast-moving swing. She gasped when Tony finally landed flat onto the ground. He was not moving and that made Joori panicked. She ran towards his side and poked his shoulder lightly.

“Oppa! You okay?” Joori asked. “Oppa, this is not funny anymore!”

Joori pulled Tony’s body until he was turned upright. She noticed he had his eyes closed and it looked as if he had fainted. Joori felt tears in her eyes as she continued to shake Tony to wake up.

“Oppa! Wake up! Don’t scare me like this!” Joori cried whilst shaking Tony’s body. Then she heard snickering coming from Tony himself. He opened his eyes slowly and grinned. Joori fumed before hitting his stomach.

“AISH!” Joori gritted her teeth and got off from the ground. She folded her arms and walked back towards the bench and sat down on it again. Her eyes continued to glare at the man in front of her who was now standing up straight and laughing happily.

“See, I told you, you were going to cry.” Tony said as he wiggled his eyebrows at his girlfriend who he noticed was sulking.

“Just shut up.” Joori bit her lips as she tried to stop her tears from coming down. “I don’t want to talk to you.”

Tony walked over towards Joori and knelt down in front of her. “Aigoo. I’m so sorry okay.”

Joori had her face turned to the side. She did not want to look at Tony for now. “Just leave me.”

“Leave you? I just found you and you are asking me to leave?” Tony gaped.

“Aish!” Joori stared at her boyfriend who was still kneeling. “When did you ever found me? I was the one who found you!”

“But technically, it’s still within that one hour, so even if you were the one who found me, I would still regard that I was the one who found you.” Tony smirked and Joori groaned out loud.

“Cheater.” Joori muttered before looking down.

“Don’t cry already okay?” Tony said soothingly as he brushed away the tears from Joori’s eyes. “I’m fine you know.”

Joori snorted unladylike. “I could see that.”

Tony grinned as he allowed himself to sit beside Joori. “Let’s not play the hide and seek game anymore.”

“Wae?” Joori asked.

“I don’t like seeking. It makes me bored.” Tony smiled.

Joori rolled her eyes. “It makes you bored that you just abandon seeking me and just play the playground?”

“You got it right my dear!” Tony pinched Joori’s cheeks lightly causing her to pout.

“How unlucky am I to get a boyfriend like you.” Joori sighed before hitting his chest playfully.

“How unlucky am I to get a sulky girlfriend like you.” Tony replied before leaning his head onto her shoulder. Then he grasped Joori’s hand and squeezed it lightly.

“This is nice.” Joori mumbled happily.

“I know. Let’s just stay like this for a while.” Tony said before sitting up and pulled Joori closer to him. She had her arms around his waist and placed her head on his chest.

“I love you oppa.” Joori muttered before closing her eyes.

“I love you too Joori-yah.” Tony replied as he leaned his head on top of Joori’s before closing his eyes as well.

******

Hara showed the message which she had received from Joori to Jieun. The younger girl squealed and gripped onto Hara’s arm excitedly.

“Where should we hide unnie? Let’s find a place where it’ll be difficult for them to find us!” Jieun exclaimed.

“You look happy to be involved in this stupid one hour hide-and-seek game.” Hara raised an eyebrow before laughing out loud.

“Of course unnie! It’s been so long since I last played his-and-seek!” Jieun pouted.

“Hm, what do you think, should we hide separately or hide together?” Hara asked.

“Let’s stick together. I am kind of nervous right now.” Jieun chuckled.

“Okay, let’s go up to that shelter there.” Hara said as she pointed to a small shelter on top of a slope.

“Ahrasso! Let’s go!” Jieun grinned before pulling Hara along with her.

***

Onew and Wooyoung walked together quietly along the pavement. They were still unable to spot any of the girls around the park. The silence between the two was getting more awkward by the minute.

“Why are we so quiet like this?” Onew asked. “We were never this awkward around each other.”

“Maybe it’s because I’m dating your sister now?” Wooyoung questioned before letting out a small smile.

Onew snorted. “Maybe it’s because you had to kneel in front of me and asked my permission to date her.”

“Shut up hyung!” Wooyoung scowled and Onew just laughed.

“You were embarrassed weren’t you?” Onew asked.

“Of course I was!”

“Then why did you do it?”

“Damn it hyung! I had to do it if I wanted her to be my girlfriend.” Wooyoung groaned as he thought of her conditions again. He had yet to greet the female student at work and praising them. He had promised Jieun that he would do it on Monday.

“You know she’s just teasing you.” Onew shook his head. “Even if you don’t do it, she would still accept you as her boyfriend. I know my sister well enough.”

“I would never risk anything hyung.” Wooyoung grinned.

“It’s mostly up to you punk.” Onew grinned before turning serious again. “Just don’t hurt her.”

“Hyung! I won’t! If I did, I would give my soul to you willingly.” Wooyoung said.

“Sure you will.” Onew laughed and the both of them continued their walk.

Thirty minutes later, Wooyoung saw something moving up under a shelter just above the slope. He tilted his head and squinted his eyes to have a clearer vision. He gaped when he realized he had found whatever they were looking for. He quickly pulled a grumpy Onew to a hidden spot behind a tree.

“What the hell Wooyoung!” Onew scowled.

“Hyung, quiet! They might hear us!” Wooyoung screamed in a hushed whisper. This made Onew quiet. He glanced around them nervously.

“You found them?” Onew asked, in a whisper himself.

“Ne. Look at the shelter up the slope.” Wooyoung told him.

Onew peeked from behind the tree and looked up at the shelter. And sure enough he saw Jieun and Hara moving around the shelter happily. He frowned, wondering what his sister and his girlfriend were doing.

“I think they’re dancing hyung.” Wooyoung said as if he had read whatever was playing in Onew’s mind.

“Dancing?” Onew raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t know Jieun danced.”

“I didn’t know either. That’s the first I seeing too hyung.” Wooyoung said before frowning. “I think it’s the song from SNSD, the song Tell Me Your Wish.”

“And how the hell you know all this? I thought you were always busy in your science lab?” Onew questioned as he threw a funny look at Wooyoung.

“Don’t get me wrong hyung.” Wooyoung quickly defended himself. “There was a mini concert down at the campus last month, and the female students chose this song as their item. That’s why I could remember their moves.”

“Hm, Hara never told me she could danced that well.” Onew said.

“Maybe she’s shy?” Wooyoung said with a smile.

“Hara? Shy? She’s never shy!” Onew grinned. “Okay, maybe when I’m teasing her.”

“Eeew hyung! I don’t need to hear anymore from you.” Wooyoung cringed his face.

“Whatever!” Onew said. “Should we just tackle them?”

“Hm, I think we should just creep up the slope slowly and scare them!” Wooyoung grinned.

“Whatever. As long as you keep your hands off Jieun. Ahrasso?” Onew said before creeping out behind the tree. Wooyoung on the other hand rolled his eyes before following Onew from behind.

***

“So it goes like this unnie.” Jieun showed Hara the proper steps to the song ‘Tell Me Your Wish’. Hara followed slowly before finally getting it right. Jieun cheered for her.

“How do you know how to dance to this song Jieun-ah?” Hara asked.

“Well, I did this item with some other girls for a mini fund-raiser concert last month.” Jieun shrugged.

“Ah! I see.” Hara nodded.

“What’s taking them so long?” Jieun pouted.

“I think our hiding place is great! That’s why it’s difficult for them to find us!” Hara grinned slyly and Jieun laughed.

“So that’s what you think is it?”

Both Hara and Jieun turned to look at the voice which came out from Onew. He was standing just outside of the shelter with a playful smirk on his lips.

“RUN!” Hara shouted and soon both Jieun and Hara ran towards the other side of the pavement. Soon before they realized it, the two girls were separated and were running in different directions with different boys running after them.

***

Hara continued running without giving a care where she was going. The only thing which was on her mind was that she needed to get away from him, Lee Jinki or commonly known as Onew.

She could feel her heart beating so fast and when she saw a large bush, she immediately jumped behind it. She squatted herself down behind the plant and covered her mouth with both hands. She could hear footsteps coming from the other side of the bush and she was sure it was Onew. After a few more seconds, Hara sighed in relief when she noticed the footsteps were gone.

Hara stood up slowly and peeked through the bush. No Onew. Hara grinned. She was back in the game!

***

“RUN!” Onew heard Hara shouted and soon she was running away from him. Hara was fast but Onew was faster. He never allowed his eyes off her. They ran quite a distance before Hara suddenly jumped behind a bush. Onew smirked.

‘You think you’d get away from me that easily?’ Onew thought grinning.

He stopped in front of the bush and pretended to look around for a moment. He wanted to make Hara think that he was confused to which way she had gone to. After a few more seconds he ran off but unknown to Hara he had actually ran to the other side of the bush, behind her. Finally he saw her standing up and she was intently peeking out through the bush. Onew grinned as he tiptoed towards Hara quietly. Then he slipped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly.

“Gotcha!” Onew whispered into her ear making Hara gasped. Onew continued to lift her off the ground as she struggled to be let loose.

“Yah! Let me go!” Hara screamed, hitting his hands at the same time.

“Not until you quiet down.” Onew said before burying his face into her hair. He just loved the smell of it.

Hara calmed down immediately. She looked at herself who was practically hanging from Onew’s arms. She could not possibly fight this man. He was too strong for her. Then an idea hit her. It was true that she was weaker than him physically, but she was still stronger than him emotionally. And so, Hara turned her head to look at Onew who was now grinning the moment their eyes met. Hara shot him her most innocent smile before giving him a cute pout.

“Baby, will you please let me down?” Hara whined. Onew’s expression softened. Hara could feel his hands loosening themselves from his grip around her waist.

“Promise me you won’t run.” Onew said, his gaze never leaving her eyes.

Hara nodded, biting her lips. And Onew knew he had lost. He slowly let her off and allowed her to stand in front of him. But before he knew it, Hara tried to make an escape again. Unfortunately, Onew was prepared for the worst. He thought quickly and tackled Hara to the ground. Hara groaned in defeat when she felt Onew’s body weight on hers. She looked up and saw Onew having that silly smile on his lips once again.

“Hi baby! Glad to see me?” Onew asked, laughing happily.

“Aigoo! You don’t fall for my aegyo anymore do you?” Hara sighed as she blew strands of hair off her face. Onew saw her actions and proceeded to help her by tucking those loose strands behind her ear.

“Hm, I know most of your tricks already.” Onew answered.

“That sucks.” Hara pouted.

“Too bad, I love every minute of it.”

“Get off me.” Hara whined again. “You’re heavy.”

“No, I’m not.” Onew smirked before leaning his face towards hers. He felt Hara froze. “You’re nervous.” Onew said in a whisper.

Hara shivered. “A-Ani. W-Who said I-I w-was?”

“I could feel every single veins and pulse in your body baby.” Onew said again.

“No you don’t.” Hara gulped.

“I could feel your heart beating crazily for me too.”

“No, it’s not.”

“It’s telling me that you want me so badly.” Onew whispered, his eyes turning dark.

“Oh really?” Hara raised an eyebrow.

“And I want you so badly as well.”

“I-I d-don’t believe y-you.” Hara gasped.

“Let me show you then.” Onew said before crashing his lips against hers in a forceful kiss. Hara moaned, totally not expecting Onew to be so rough suddenly. But she would lie if she said she did not like it, which she actually did. Their tongues met and fought in the love battle from the heated kiss causing Onew to moan as well before Hara finally used all the strength she had left and pushed Onew away. Both were panting hard, gasping for breath.

“I… I… I like that. B-But, we sh-should go.” Hara said in between heavy breaths. “They will be w-waiting.”

“O-Okay.” Onew just nodded before he gently nuzzled his nose in the crook of Hara’s neck. “I love you Hara.”

Hara smiled and replied with full of sincerity, “I love you too Jinki-yah.”

And they stood up, before walking hand in hand, shyly and in silence.

******

Jieun ran as fast as she could towards the end of the park. She noticed she had lost Hara halfway but it did not matter to her as long as she could get away from Wooyoung. She knew he was chasing her but she was not able to see if he had managed to catch up to her.

She headed for a huge tree and hid behind it. She had nowhere else to hide and the tree was her last resort. She peeked from behind the tree to see Wooyoung running but she was sure he did not see her. Then suddenly Jieun gasped when she saw Wooyoung fell after tripping over a root of a tree. She saw his scrunched up face and she held a hand onto her lips. After a few minutes of watching the pain in his face, Jieun decided to show herself and she quickly ran towards her man.

“Oppa!” Jieun cried and knelt beside him. “Are you okay? Does it hurt much? Can you walk? Should we see a doctor? Ommo! What if you get an infection?”

Wooyoung looked at the girl in front of him. She had tears in her eyes and he felt that sudden guilt attacking his senses. He just made the girl whom he loved dearly shed her first tears. Wooyoung cursed himself.

“I’m fine. Please don’t worry.” He managed to say, in hope that his words would calm her down.

“No oppa. You’re hurt because you were chasing me.” Jieun said, biting her lips. “I should just have let you caught me earlier.”

Wooyoung laughed. “Silly girl! What’s the fun in letting me catching you without any resistance at all? I love challenges and you gave me that!”

Jieun pouted. “Stop laughing oppa! It’s not funny.”

“Aigoo! My girlfriend is so cute!” Wooyoung grinned before giving her a gentle pinch on her cheek.

“Are you hurt anywhere?” Jieun asked as she checked Wooyoung’s body for any signs of wounds.

“Ani. I’m fine, really.” Wooyoung told her. “I may have sprained my ankle though but other than that, I’m great!”

“Sinchia?”

“Sinchia, sinchia!” Wooyoung nodded his head and Jieun smiled.

“Ahrasso, let me help you then.” Jieun pulled Wooyoung up slowly and placed his arms around her shoulder.

“It’s okay Jieun-ah. Oppa is heavy and I can walk by myself.” Wooyoung tried to shrug his arms off Jieun but she would not allow it.

“I’m your girlfriend oppa, let me help you. And I won’t take no for an answer.” Jieun glared at Wooyoung and he nodded fearfully. They made their way slowly towards the entrance of the park.

“I fee so lucky to have you as my girlfriend.” Wooyoung sighed happily. “I could not imagine myself without you around.”

Jieun blushed. “I feel the same too.”

“I love you Jieun-ah.” Wooyoung said shyly as he glanced at Jieun.

Jieun returned the gaze and smiled warmly at her man. “I love you too oppa.”

***

And the four couples finally met at the entrance of the park at exactly at the end of the seeking hour. All of them had crimson-colored faces, due to the mad blushing each of them had. And before they knew it, they were back at the girls’ house eating the wonderfully cooked breakfast, most credits to Joori.
