She walked to the door and opened it. She flushed as she saw Young Min standing in front of her, half-naked. She was so lost in her thoughts, previously, that she hadn't realized he was half-dressed.
A blue jean covered his long legs. She hadn't seen him wear jeans before. All she saw him was dressed in formal attire, either black pants or blue. And she had no words for his upper body.
Why were his shoulders so broad? And why were her eyes only going on places which she should not see?
Mina couldn't take off her eyes from the sight which was been shown to her... She felt something form within her body and she blushed deep red. She lowered her eyes and hurriedly walked to the kitchen.
The aroma of delicious food distracted her and she took a glance at the hot boiling soup.
"Mhmm!! It smells nice." She took a spoonful of the vegetable soup and took it in her mouth after blowing on it for a few times.
"Do you like it?" Young Min came behind her and hugged her. Ever since he saw her today, he felt her acting awkward and distant towards him. He didn't like the feeling of it. He wanted to be close to her. So, he just came and hugged her from behind.
He inhaled the scent of her and for heaven's sake, he just wanted to have her now. He felt hard just by inhaling her. But he had to keep himself calm because she was acting very weird.
A small positive reply escaped Mina's lips and she immediately kept the spoon and removed his hands which were on her stomach.
"I will freshen up." She slowly began to escape from his hug when Young Min held her hand.
When Mina faced him, he raised a brow towards her and asked in a cold voice "Care to explain why you are being distant with me?"
"Huh?" Mina was caught off guard with his question. Was she really acting this distant that he just asked??
"I...I...uh..." Unable to find any words, she scratched her head. But she could still see his questionable gaze on her. She took a deep sigh and replied turning all red "I really don't know."
"What do you not know? Tell me and I will answer all." As he said that, his eyes turned soft and his lips curved in a smile. He walked towards her and held her hand. Brushing her knuckles with his lips, he muttered "Just tell me what you want to know and I will say all. I don't want you being distant with me."
He looked in her eyes and softly caressed her cheek. Holding her face in his palms, he asked trying to make sure that she understood "Alright?"
Mina gave an agreeable nod and shyly looked up at his face. She saw those beautiful eyes which she had seen on her first encounter with him.
Was she really out of the comic world? She was asking this question again and again to herself to make sure that she wouldn't lose this guy who had melted her heart and took care of her like a perfect boyfriend.
If she was living in a comic world and that she has to go back to her own world, then it would be very difficult for her to leave Young Min behind.
She really didn't want to lose him. NEVER EVER!
She took a warm bath and felt her body completely calm and cool. Apart from that, the news that she was with Young Min even in her world was making her smile with happiness.
She quickly wore a loose grey top and black loose pants. Mina looked at herself in the mirror and her happiness faded away when she saw herself.
No matter how much she tried to hide her body, she couldn't hide it. Her loose baggy clothes were now fitting her so perfectly that she felt disgusted upon seeing herself. She wasn't disgusted upon seeing herself at first but after people began mistreating her for her looks, she became disgusted with herself.
She was so happy living as Lee Yura. She wished that she would have just been like that rather than coming back to her original self.
And as she thought of Young Min who was waiting for her outside the room, she felt like not going out.
If the whole world was disgusted then why would he not be disgusted with her? She really would hate her if she was to see her like this now.
She quickly locked the door and laid down on the bed while covering herself with the blanket. As she imagined his reaction upon seeing her actual self, she felt warm tears escaping the corner of her eyes.
Meanwhile, Kim Young Min sat on the chair and smiled. He thought about the time he first met her and his smile turned even deep.
****
On his first day at university, while coming out of his car, Kim Young Min saw a girl wearing loose baggy clothes and walking alone while she had two books in her hand. At first, he was also annoyed to see someone this fat and ugly at the university.
But when he saw her face, he felt a tingling in his heart. He wanted to know about her more. So, he rushed in the university grounds and began asking people about her but all he could hear from those people was disgusted remarks.
Everyone spoke about how she looked and how shameless she was to come to the university every single day without taking any leave.
Kim Young Min also considered himself no less as he had thought of her in such a way too. But he wanted to change his thoughts. He wanted to know about her. If no one was there to support her, he had decided that he would be the one who would stand by her side all the time.
He made a gloomy face and walked to his class. And…
