"Cheeses Crist" I say in a whisper like tone while looking away from the awkward eye contact that me and Jun-Woo shared "y-yes...sir" "very well...first off I want to be sure. You are a lawyer..right." "yes sir but-" "Great okay let's continue" what's up with people and cutting me off when I'm speaking. Can he not tell that I'm trying to warn him that I'm a sucky ass lawyer. "Im gonna just let you know exactly why I wanted to meet you. I want you to take care of my case." "WHAT! why me I mean no offense sir but I think this is a case you want to win a-and I'm not such a good lawyer...m-maybe you can ask my friend Dong-Wook he can-" "hey!hey! If I wanted your friend I would have asked but I must let you know." He takes a small pause and lifts up his water bottle then continues " I choose who I want so...I practically chose you...I don't want no one else to know or take this case. Do you understand." He says leaning forward our faces 2 inches apart "y-yes sir i-i understand" "Good" he leans back in the sofa "then I'll see you tomorrow at Babel. Don't be late." "Yes sir" I bow once again before standing straight to look up at him "you know where the door is" i nod and turn to leave as quickly as possible once I'm out I let out the air that I have been holding in "oh what am I gonna do" I say to myself while sliding down the wall to floor "how am I supposed to win this....." "Well we'll curiosity just had to get you huh Citrus" I look up to see who the owner of the voice was oh no I'm in trouble. "Dong-Wook i-" "stop..Just stop...get in the car" I sigh as I get in his car "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING HE COULD HAVE HURT YOU. WE DON'T KNOW THIS MAN. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HIS-" "HE WANTS ME TO BE IN CHARGE OR HIS CASE" I yell at Dong-Wook cutting him off oh it feels good to cut people off. I should do that more often. "HE WHAT!" Dong-Wook hits the brakes in his car causing me to move a bit forward and hit my forhead on the dashboard "OUCH WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU" I say rubbing my forhead "WE ARE GOING BACK OVER THERE AND YOU ARE GOING TO TELL HIM YOUR NOT DOING THIS CASE" Dong-Wook says pointing at me "No I'm doing this case Dong-Wook" he sighs "Citrus..." "Please Dong-Wook have faith in me atleast once" "it's not that I don't have faith in you it's just-" "ughhh now what" I say looking at him "Citrus..I am the lawyer who is going against Babel." He puts his head down in the steering wheel I look over at him with a shocked expression "what... Why didnt you tell me" "because I-I 
I'm sorry" he said still looking down "wow thanks for trusting me"I say opening the car door "Citrus c'mon" he says getting out of the car like I did "it's not that I don't trust you it's just-" "what are you gonna say that I'm stubborn it's not like I would take the case from you" I stare at him waiting for him to speak but all the does is look at his feet. I let out a laugh "go home Dong-Wook" I say walking away looking for a bus stop. Instead I drag myself to a convince store and currently sitting in a bench eating gummy bears as I let out a sigh I hear someone familiar "Citrus?" I don't even bother to turn around since I know who it is "Hi Han-Seo" he proceeds to walk up to me "hey I thought you would be home by now" "eh long story" I let out a small laugh he turns to look at me concerned "are you okay..." "Yeah...I'ma head home now" as I'm standing getting ready to walk away he grabs my wrist "I'll take you" I turn to look at him "umm no it's okay don't worry" "please let me take you it's dark it's not good for a pretty lady to be walking around late at night" i blush and nod "okay then....sha'll we go then" he stands up smiling "y-yeah let's go" as we walk to his car my mind is full of thoughts such as 'is this a good idea' 'should I go back' 'i think I'll be okay' I keep thinking thought after thought and before I know it we are sitting in his car driving away from the Convince store 'was this a good idea'......
