Attracted by Su-Jin's cheerful tone and relaxed manners, Ji-Won gave Su-Jin a side-glance.
The words cute and adorable unexpectedly popped inside his mind. This made him instantly become flustered and he quickly pulled his eyes away. He furtively raised a hand to his lips in order to hide a smile. But the loud, nervous chuckle that seeped through his lips was impossible to mask as a cough.
"Is something the matter?" Su-Jin inquired, eying him strangely.
Sure enough, she had seen his little gesture and was now intrigued by it.
Ji-Won cleared his throat and replied as nonchalantly as possible.
"N-Nothing… It's really nothing. We should get going now. There are still lots of places left to visit around the village."
Su-Jin thought something was off about Ji-Won's current behavior. There was something especially odd about his eyes shifting around randomly, avoiding making contact with Su-Jin's curious gaze.
