Chapter 21 - Stroll in the park

Jas's POV:

The next day we woke up late because we were talking and watching movies till late at night. At one point, she made me think about my feelings for Sanhyul. But, I know for sure it isn't love. Is it though? The excitement I feel about my coffee date with Han feels more special to me.

"Hey, Clare get up. How long are you going to sleep?" I slapped her butt to make her jolt up from her sleep.

"Ouch! You idiot. Who wakes up someone like this?" She shouted. It was fun.

"Me. Get up now and let's go to the nearby park. I want to go for a run and you only asked me yesterday to wake you up." I really need this to compose my thoughts.

"Just go by yourself" she tried to lie down again.

"Shut up and get up you fat ass. Let's go", I pulled her up and she went to freshen up.

As we were leaving, I saw Han outside their house.

"Hey, Jas", he paused a little. I guess he was trying to remember her name, "Clare, right?".

He waved and came towards us. "Are you going somewhere?"

I was about to reply but suddenly Clare cut me off, "this idiot wants to take a stroll in the park. You can join us if you want". I was standing there speechless. I didn't want her to invite him. I pinched Clare for that.

"Ouch! What?" She shouted. "Nothing", I replied.

"Yes, you can join us. The more the merrier",and smiled .

He chuckled at my comment. Clare was grinning like she had done an amazing job.

As we were walking together, I pulled Clare behind, "dude, why did you invite him? I didn't want to show him my frizzy hair, ugly and sweaty side so soon".

"Ohh, I didn't think it through. Oops, Sorry", she held her ear and made a cute face trying to make me forget her.

"Alright, let's catch up with him or else he will think I am gossiping about him", I replied to her and we ran a little faster.

We walked together and I was blushing and grinning like a little girl just saw her crush. We spoke and he was telling us a funny incident back home to entertain us. And meanwhile, he would look at me just to make sure if I was smiling or laughing or not. When we returned back, he asked Clare, "Can I borrow your friend for a few minutes?"

I blushed the way he asked her in his deep voice while looking at me.

"Yes sure, she is all yours." She pushed me towards him and gave a flying kiss and left.

"Don't mind her Han. She is a little childish", holding my hand to protect me from falling.

"She is something but you are the one I can't stop thinking about", he replied.

"Do you want to sit there, near that swan lake?" I asked. "Yes sure", he said.

"This place is beautiful. Especially today, the weather feels perfect as I have my girl sitting with me".

I blushed listening to him but I don't want to give in to that mesmerizing smile so easily.

"Han, you can't call me your girl yet. You haven't asked me and I don't think we are there yet."

I thought of being a little sassy. He smiled and put a strand of hair between my ear. I wish I am not that sweaty yet.

"Yes, you are right." he smiled.
