The Woo family and Seo-ri had finished dinner, and Il-Sung sat on the living room with his wife. The two of them were watching their favorite prime time show on a certain channel. This was how the Woo family spends their time in the evening.
It was very windy during the night.
Seo-ri stood outside the house. She had missed this kind of moments where Danny would walk her back home. It had been long since the two of them were able to talk due to the misunderstanding and Danny's trip to Italy along with his family.
She had been feeling longingness for Danny when he was ignoring her, and what transpired today made her sure of her feelings for him. Sure you could call it having a crush on him when they were children but as they grew up, the feelings morphed into something deeper. If only he thinks of me the same, she thought.
"Hey Seo-ri, quit dazing off and let's go" Danny came out from his house. He walked towards her and pinched her nose gently "Still thinking of me?"
Danny was now confident of himself; he had the looks but not the voice back then. However, the changing of his vocal type and the way he sung boosted his confidence to the top. Also knowing that Seo-ri was still single made him want to tease her but it was more like a child's gestures to show his affection.
Seo-ri could only blush as she felt embarrassed and shy due to Danny's teasing, the earlier scene made the atmosphere around them awkward.
The two of them walked side by side, the silence was broken down with Danny's initiative to start a conversation.
"Hey Seo, when will your summer class start?" Danny asked curiously.
Seo-ri sighed "Classes would start next week" she bit her lips gently as if aggrieved and said "We could have hang out like we used to every summer if it weren't for dad enrolling me without prior notice"
"Hey, it's fine since I'll probably be busy with my summer job if I ever get accepted" Danny tried to comfort her "Anyway, tell me things that happened to you while I was away"
The two conversed as they talked, Danny was fully focused on listening to each and every word Seo-ri said, he was truly interested on her stories.
"I can't help but falling for you more, Seo" Danny thought as he stared at his smiling childhood sweetheart. He couldn't help but harbor feelings for this sweet girl who had been with him since childhood. Her innocent smile untainted by the kind of world he went through.
"We're here Da-" They had reached the front of Seo-ri's house after ten minutes of walking, her words was cut halfway when she saw Danny's intense gaze on her.
The gaze Danny had been very different from people; his gaze is very charming and tempting as if it would suck your soul out.
Danny couldn't help but reach out his hand to touch her face with the back of hand, it was as if he was possessed and his instinct took over him.
Although he was unsure if his feelings for her was of romance or is familial like brother and sister but he knew he shouldn't hesitate at this moment.
"Danny, wha-"Again, Seo-ri was interrupted by Danny but not with his hand but with a kiss, it was very sudden but she couldn't resist it. She didn't hate it though as she had always fantasized about how this moment would play.
It was her first kiss and she had always been ready to give it to this childhood sweetheart of hers who was pretty much dense back then. When did this feelings of her started, she wondered.
Their kiss was very pure; it was the first time they poured their feelings in an act. The emotions and feelings they had felt since childhood was being enacted at this very moment.
Seo-ri was very much immersed in the kiss and in a sudden, felt a tongue exploring the deeper parts of her mouth. Danny's tongue played with hers teasingly, their tongues intertwined as Danny applied his experience. He played with her tongue very gently and in a sudden would suck her mouth roughly, this process of French kiss repeated until Seo-ri could barely breathe, Danny had to stop knowing that she was very much inexperienced.
The two looked at each other with warm gazes, no words could come out of their lips and yet the look in their eyes had properly conveyed their feelings. It was late and they were both reluctant to part but Seo-ri has curfew due to her family' strict upbringing.
"Danny, I love you" Seo confessed. Though, there was still a part of her that is scared of being rejected, a part of her that was still in doubt of Danny having the same feeling as her and a thought of how he just kissed her due to a moment of passion.
Danny looked at her, he had realized how much he loves this girl right now but he was still reluctant. He didn't want to be tied down right now, he is pretty much an ambitious man and he knew that his wishes could be obtained with the system assisting him.
Accepting her is like settling down for him and yet, he couldn't bear to reject her when he saw her expectant look. Danny knew the consequences of rejecting her, her heart would crumble to pieces.
"I love you too, Seo" He replied and Seo's expression changed into pure bliss, their relationship was sealed as they kissed again.
Their kiss was just a normal romantic kiss and it didn't last for a few seconds, they knew that it was time for them to part tonight.
"Seo, come to my house tomorrow if you're free" Danny said as he kissed her on the forehead "I'll be going home now, I'll see you soon"
Seo-ri looked at Danny's back with a longing gaze and a blushing face. Everything that happened was a dream come true for her. She was still processing how she just became his girlfriend.
It was a sleepless night for this maiden in love.
...
It had been three days since the two had cemented their relationship, Seo-ri had been coming into the Woo family's house every day and their relationship was slowly yet steadily improving.
Right now, Seo-ri was sitting with Danny on a couch in the living room with her head leaned on his shoulders.
"Danny, when will your job interview be?" Seo-ri asked as she looked up to meet Danny's gaze.
"Ma told me that it would be tomorrow, I probably won't be home until late at night since my interview will be after dinner"
Seo-ri looked concerned and she couldn't help but ask "We're still underage right? Why did they set the interview at night time"
"I guess because it's a bar, don't worry nothing will happen. Okay?" Danny smiled.
The two of them conversed and watch the TV until it was near Seo-ri 's curfew, Danny accompanied her to her home and bade his farewell.
These two lovebirds still talked on a messaging app until they fell asleep.
