Jeon Min tae's POV:
He was attacking them one by one. They were grabbing their people from ground and running away. He could've stopped them but he didn't. He let them go. He just injured them but not severely. They were gone.
Who is this guy?
What is wrong with this guy?
Why does it feels like I have seen him somewhere?
And why is he wearing traditional clothes?
Is he main lead of some kind of play or K-drama maybe? In between my train of thoughts I saw him turning towards me and then he asked.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes" I replied nodding and continued "Thank you". 'He has no idea how grateful I am' I thought.
He just nodded and asked,
"Why those bandits were after you?"
"I don't know. We were just leaving.. then they came from somewhere and started attacking us." I replied panicking.
"We?" he asked a bit confused.
"Me and my sisters"
"Oh, where are they now?"
"Somewhere in the forest." I replied looking at forest.
Then I felt something warm on my body and heard "You'll catch cold". It was his cloak and it was soft like velvet. It looks expensive.
"Thank you" I said avoiding his eye contact. I don't why I am blushing.
"You're welcome", he said with his charming smile. I can see a beautiful dimple pop up. What am I thinking 'he's just another guy stop smiling like a fool' I said to myself, trying to make as straight face as possible.
"Why are you so wet?" he asked. And another question. 'What is he, a detective?'.
"Umm.. It was raining from where I came" I said thinking this is the best thing I can come up with.
"Are you coming from northern region?" he asked. 'Again with the question.'
"I don't know I'm not good with maps. I was just following my sisters." I said. 'Now stop asking me question.'
"OK. How are you going to find your sisters now?" he asked again with genuine concern on his face.
"They told me they will meet me at the giant tree we saw last night. It's in extreme left side of the forest." I said thinking how stupid it sounds. I mean I only took right turn from the start. It should be somewhere in the left direction.
"There are many giant tree in the forest, how will you know which one is the one you are searching for?" He asked.
"I'll find it somehow" I said turning away. 'Time to say goodbye sherlock holmes'
He grabbed my hand and I gave him look, he released it immediately and said,
"I think I should help you, It's a large forest".
"You have already done enough" I said genuinely. Then he said "But it's my duty as a..." and stopped.
"As a..?" I asked with big question mark on my face.
"As a good citizen?" he replied, which was more like a question.
"OK then let's walk" I said.
"What's your name?" He asked with curiosity.
"Jeon Min tae" I answered. He smiled for some reason, and his dimple was making it more infectious.
'Get a grip on yourself girl. Stop observing him focus on something else'
"You're horse is quite beautiful" I said complimenting the most beautiful horse I have even seen.
"He preferred to be called handsome. His name is Sarang".
"Like really, Sarang?"
"Yes" he said looking at his horse with love.
"It suits him. Earlier he rescued me" I said still looking at white horse infront of me.
"He is trained for war. He has always been obedient" he said looking at him with adoring eyes.
"Can I touch him?" I asked in a low voice.
"Sure" he said moving from my way.
I touched Sarangs neck and he responded by slightly moving his head in my direction.
"He likes you" said the guy looking me in the eye.
I looked away.
"Do you wanna ride it?" He asked
"Oh, No.. No.." I said while making No sign from my hand too.
"You never rode a horse, did you?" he asked with smile on his face.
'Hey stop it, stop smiling dimple boy'
"No I didn't" I said with shy smile looking at the ground.
"Where do you live, I never saw you before" 'Detective Alert!!!'. I thought it's better to ignore him.
"So we're being secretive now?" he said in more like teasing tone.
"Sorry?" I asked with the most innocent expression on my face.
He was about to say something but we heard "MIN TAE.."
"JEON MIN TAE.."
"MIN TAEEAAA.."
"MIN TAE.."
I ran towards the direction from the sounds were coming, he followed me immediately. I saw my sisters. I ran and hugged them all together it was like a group hug.
"Are you okay?"...
