After pulling Eunbi away from that man, the two kept running as far away as they can, holding each others hands not minding the people they almost ran into,

They both didn't know what they were doing, yet it felt right for them as they were free and away from others that knew them.

The two stopped in front of a convenience store a couple of buildings away from the hospital as Hyewon was aware that Eunbi was already out of breath,

"Are you okay?" she said as she looked at a sweating Eunbi,

"Ah yes I'm fine, thank you too" sitting down at a chair in front of the brightly lighted convenience store

"Here, why thank me when I just literally dragged you for like a mile"

Hyewon jokingly said as she handed her handerchief to Eunbi, making both of them smile.

"I'll tell you about it some other time, oh right, why did you go to the hospital?" Eunbi said while wiping her neck with Hyewon's handerchief,

Hyewon was standing up looking at Eunbi as some people outside the store, were staring at them, it's not that often to see two people running in the middle of Seoul

"I texted you earlier and you didn't reply so I thought why not pick you up"

"Oh I'm sorry it's really busy back there I couldn't reply to you" hearing a hint of guilt in her tone, Hyewon wanted to reassure her

"It's okay, I'm glad I'm with you now, my plan worked" Hyewon said as she chuckled a little bit making Eunbi smile.

"By the way can you do me a favor?"

"What is it?" Hyewon said looking at her so lovingly that it made Eunbi stutter

"C-can you b-buy me something t-to drink?"

Hyewon love how she stuttered, she thought it was cute,

Without hesitating she went inside and bought a can of sprite and coke, fighting herself to not buy a pack of chips

"Here which one do you want?" she said as she placed both in front of Eunbi,

Eunbi smiled as she saw one of Hyewon's hand holding a sprite and immediately grabbed it,

"Do I know you? For real, have we met before? "

She said as she looked at a sitting Hyewon opening her coke, making one of her eyebrows go up as she starts sipping it

"No I don't think so why?"

"Maybe it's just coincidence, it's because my favorite drink is sprite"

"Oh really? I thought it was going to be iced americano's or something, since you know, you're a nurse, I even bought you some earlier but I accidentally left it back at the hospital"

Eunbi almost spat out the sprite in her mouth,

"Are you sure we haven't met yet? Iced americano's are also one of my go-to's when I'm at a professional event"

Hyewon looked at Eunbi and smiled as they drank their drinks while looking at flow of nonstop cars passing by,

"Can you like tell your co-workers to drink the Coffee I left?" Hyewon said worrying about the possibility that she wasted her money

"Sure I'll text them" Eunbi placed her can of sprite down rummaging through her bag for her phone

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

Eunbi enjoyed the silence between them, it was not the awkward kind, she really just liked how Hyewon's presence makes her feel happy and safe.

"Don't trust her, you just met her, are you sure she's not going to leave you in the end? You'll just make her feel bad"
