The next day he didn't have any class so he came at the evening time to just have a small glimpse of her walking back home. It wasn't that he wanted to follow her, it was just he wanted to see her for as much long as he could. And there she was playing all the way with herself and walking on the street.
She looked funny. Trying to balance herself while walking on her toes.
"What are you doing?" Young Min bounced behind her and this scared her a little.
"Woah!! You just scared me. You didn't come today to the university?"
"Yes, didn't have any class today." Young Min began to walk alongside her. He was close enough to feel her scent. 'Why is she smelling so good?' He thought to himself and continued walking with her.
"Umm... Where are you going?"
"Going just where you are going..." Young Min replied without thinking and later on, he cursed himself inwardly. Uggh!! His bad tongue slips off all the time.
"Hmm?"
As he saw her confused look, he waved his hand and made some sort of explanation "Just... Got nothing to do. So, I will hang out with you for a while."
And just like that, he always hung out with her ignoring the various looks people used to give to them. It didn't bother Mina so why did he had to be bothered with it? Besides, if she was bothered he was gonna stand with her until the day he died.
Two months later, he realized that he had fallen very deeply for her. A minute away from her and he would miss her. Not only this thing, his mind was so much filled with her that he had even imagined her in some places where he went.
And he wanted to know how she was feeling for him....
Just like before, he met her on the street playing with herself. The street had become their meeting point. Either of them would wait for each other daily and they would separate their ways at the bus stop which was just fifteen minutes away.
As they both were heading to their final destination, all of a sudden it rained and it rained so bad that they both drenched within two minutes. They looked for some shelter to hide but they found none.
Seeing her all drenched due to the rain, Young Min took off his jacket and put it on her.
"I don't need it. My house is just nearby. Let's go there." Mina gave him back his jacket and told him to follow her.
And they both ran to her house.
Until now, Young Min had thought that Mina also takes a bus to head back home.... But he was surprised to see her home just nearby. He smiled as he thought that she used to come all the way to the bus stop to drop him.
It made him feel fluffy.
As Son Mina opened her main door and told him to walk in, he looked at her house. It just ended few steps after it started.
Her house was so small. A room, a kitchen and a bathroom.
He quickly removed his shoes when he saw her removing hers. He looked around for a while and heard her say that she would be back.
Soon, she was back and bought two towels. She gave one to him and took one for herself. As he quickly dried his hair, he saw her drying her hair.
And a sudden urge came over him and he walked towards her. He took the towel from her hand and said "Let me help." Slowly, ever so slowly, he began to pat her hair dry. Her black hair was just amazing; silky, smooth and lustrous. He loved it all.
It was wrong to judge her by her looks. Son Mina was really something else. For him, she was the one who made him feel all the fluttering in his stomach. Ahh!! He was liking her even more.
"Thank you!" He heard another soft thank you from her and it just continuously rang a bell inside his heart.
"ACHOOO!" And as if this small moment was enough to calm Young Min's loud beating heart, he sneezed.
A mouthful of inaudible curses left his mind as he heard her apologizing. He saw her figure disappear into the room and he grunted loudly. "F*ck!!"
Soon, he noticed her coming back holding a gray shirt and a black track pant.
"Well, I always wear baggy clothes like boys. So, I guess this will fit you. I have only worn them once so feel free to use it." He saw her give a sheepish smile.
As Young Min took the clothes, she pointed to the right of her room. "The bathroom is there. You can use that."
Young Min gave a nod and walked to the bathroom. He took a quick shower and came out dressed in the clothes given by her. By the time, he was out, he saw that Mina had also changed her clothes. She wore a pink trouser and a white T-shirt.
As usual, they were loose enough to fit another person inside.
"I will make coffee." He heard her say and he immediately declined. "No!"
"No?"
"I don't drink coffee."
As Young Min replied to her, a smile crawled over her lips.
"Ohh, then tea?" He heard her mellow voice.
He was addicted to her voice like a drug. Every day, he just wanted to hear her soft mellow voice. It really melted him and he wanted to hear them late at night too.
"No. I will just take wat..."
He was cut off by her question "Is beer, okay?"
Her question surprised him. 'She also drinks beer?' He raised up his eyebrows in utter surprise.
And he heard her chime before giving a wink "Don't worry. I have a good tolerance."
A chuckle escaped his mouth and he realized that this was the first time ever he saw her wink. As he saw her taking out beer cans from the fridge, he looked at her back and then at the water droplets which were falling on the window.
Had it not been raining he wouldn't have even got to know about where she lives.... Not only that he wouldn't have been wearing clothes which somewhat smelled like her nor would he have been having a time where he would be drinking beer without any awkwardness in between.
As he saw her taking sip after sip from the beer can, he wished that the beer can was himself instead. He would be kissing her full pouty lips and sucking on her lower lip just like every guy does so.
