Nana stayed outside for a while but then she decided to return to her room. It was a bit too hot to come out. So, she closed the door to the balcony and pulled the curtain until the level of brightness in her room was to her standard. Then, she started unpacking her baggage. She also called the laundry room to ask them to pick up her dirty clothes. After setting herself up in her room and giving her dirty clothes to the laundry service, she decided to take a nap for a bit.
After all, it was still too early to walk around the area.
By the time she woke up, it was almost dark outside. The lights had been turned on and the garden and the beach turned into a romantic scenery out of a scene in a movie. She was excited to walk through the garden but her stomach made her realize another vital point that was almost being forgotten.
Nana took a shower and went out to find something to eat. She went to the restaurant of the resort and ordered some food. After that, she picked a pretty secluded place to sit. She sat on the veranda of the restaurant, facing the sea and enjoying the scenery in front of her. A pair of earphones was plugging her ears from any unnecessary comments around her.
Just as she was waiting for her food while enjoying the evening breeze, someone approached her. The big shadow blocked the main light from her, successfully making her notice him.
At first, she thought that it was the waiter delivering her order so she pulled out the earphones from her ears just in case the waiter said something. She didn't want to be accused impolite for ignoring someone who was tending to her. But, there was no movement, so she looked up to see the intruder. Right next to her was a familiar looking man who was looking at her with displeasure in his eyes. Even with a hat and a mask, she could recognize him right away.
He was wearing casual clothes -she didn't notice the color of his clothes but maybe blue? -white mask, and white hat. Standing straight with his hands in his pockets, he was looking down at her without saying anything. It was as if he was trying to intimidate her with his sharp gaze.
However, Nana wasn't someone who would be so easy to scare. She got up and stood up on the chair. That way she could be taller than him and let him feel the feeling of being looked down because of the difference in height. She didn't say anything, just looking down at him with peering eyes. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest. Their gazes clashed with the intensity no one could predict.
He wanted to act stubborn? Fine. He wasn't the only one who could throw a temper, right?
In the end, Mu Yang was the one who relented. He softened his gaze after seeing her calm and deep eyes looking back at him stubbornly.
"Get down. You'll fall." He said while helping her to get down.
Nana obediently got down and sat back on her chair. She had a thin smug smirk on her face since she won the staring contest between her and Mu Yang. On the other hand, Mu Yang didn't look like he cared about the result and just pulled another chair to be even closer to her.
"Why are you here?" She asked.
"I miss you." Mu Yang bumped her shoulder with his head, unconsciously acting cute like an aggrieved 'big' wife who was abandoned by her husband.
Nana rubbed his head gently, but her heart stirred slightly hearing his words. Was he saying the truth? But, she was expecting another answer. Even so, his answer wasn't wrong either. "You know that's not what I mean."
While they were talking, both of them didn't know that someone was recording them from behind the glass window ever since Mu Yang crossed the room and approached her. Maybe they noticed his displeasure when he approached her so they recorded it as to provide it as a proof later if things went south. Who knew that it would turn out to be a cute scene? The owner of the phone even squealed seeing the both of them. A couple of minutes later, the video was posted in her account and was seen by many people. The comments were also varied, but most of them said that 'the boyfriend couldn't get angry at the petite girlfriend'.
While the video was being seen by people, the two people were enjoying their dinner while talking.
"I went back to the hotel but they said that you've checked out. I wanted to call you but I remembered I didn't have your contact number. Give me your phone." He started, half complaining to her that she had left him behind.
Nana didn't say anything, but she gave him her phone after unlocking it. Mu Yang's photos were still dominating her wallpaper and it made him smile. After making sure he had her number, he also saved his own number in her phone. He typed; Ayang ❤, which made Nana speechless with how he looked please just from the name alone.
"Done." He returned her phone to her with a wide smile. "I've finished taking care of my days off. Now I have full permission to go out and enjoy my vacation."
"They didn't ask you where you're going?"
"They did. I said, I don't know. I'll update the info once I know where to go." He picked her plate and switched it with his. He had already cut the steak into smaller bites while Nana was still eating her salad.
"Thank you." Nana nodded her head appreciatively. "How do you know I'm here?"
"I bribed the receptionist who helped you rent the car." He answered lightly.
"You could do that? I thought that place was secure!" Nana had a stupefied expression on her face.
If she knew that place would leak information to anyone, she wouldn't use their service to get here. It was too bad it already happened and she could only swallow her frustration quietly.
