Arnold said," I don't care if he's alive or not if he shows up in front of me, I'm gonna kill him."
I answered," since when you got this brave? You may have forgotten but I still remember you were a pushover. From where does this confidence come from?" May interrupted me and said," Hey you two, can you please stop arguing. Arnold! if you're so brave, fight me and Veronica if you're interested in arguing I'm gonna call John over here."

John came in and said, "were you all talking about me?" (What he's here? I guess I have to flee from here or else I would end up getting another lecture about good manners and all)
I screamed," no! We were talking about Harry's corpse. So, John, I'm done talking here, I informed them everything, so can we go out for a walk?" John agreed and we left. I was so relieved we got and May didn't cause any trouble.

While we were walking along the street. John held my hand, interlocked fingers and said," Hey, Veronica I'm sorry for lecturing you. I know you were trying to protect me but you didn't have to stab him some extra times even after he was dead. You need to understand when to stop." I replied," I thought you're gonna say something roman-..."

Till I could finish my sentence, John sealed my lips with his. I wished this moment to last forever. Suddenly it started raining and John said," Hey, hurry up we will end up being soaked." I held his hand tight and said," I don't mind walking in rain with you." John said," let's go to my place, we're wet we may catch a cold."

When we arrived at John's place, I don't know how but his mom opened the door before even we rang the doorbell! I said," hello ahjumma, how did you know we were here?" She replied," I don't know, gut instinct, I guess? Hey, what are you waiting for? Come in, have dinner with us, I'll give you my clothes so get changed or else you'd catch cold."

What really, I'm gonna have dinner with him at his place, his mom is even giving me her clothes, she's such a good person. Thinking I changed clothes and was having dinner with them.

She asked me," how's the food?" I replied in an instant," it's too tasty especially Tteokbokki and Gimbap." She thanked me and asked me," how's your father and you may call him over to have dinner with us. He'll feel lonely having dinner by himself." I replied," he's fine and he's in Australia so he can't have dinner with us now." She replied in an instant," it doesn't seem that rain would stop. You may sleep here if you wish."

I said," yeah I'd like to stay here." She replied," so you can sleep in John's room." My face turned red.
She continued after a long pause," John you'll sleep on the sofa." I went to John's room and was just about to sleep when someone knocked on the door.....
