"Every. detail. right. now."

I stared at the two as they looked at me with wide eyes in anticipation.

It reminded me of the way kids look at their moms before they read them a bedtime story.

The moment I got home after my little hangout with Felix, I was bombarded with questions along with a fair amount of teasing.

Apparently Lia directly came to my apartment from work, squealing about the whole scene at the café to Jisung, and knowing her, she must have exaggerated some parts. Also because the first thing Jisung had asked me after I came home was

"Did you guys kiss?"

I did choke a little back then.

"I took him to the forest since he wanted to see a pretty place. We sat down at a spot, and talked a little and just admired the peaceful atmosphere."

I glimpsed at the two.

There was no movement beside the wide grins that kept stretching across their faces that said it all.

They need more details.

"I told him about you guys while he told about his best friend who will be moving to Seoul too and that he was searching for a nice and affordable apartment, so I told him that his friend could check out the unrented apartments in our building. And then hetookmyphonenumber for the website information for his friend."

It felt so awkward to speak that loud so I spoke those five words in haste.

And of course I wasn't going to speak about the hand brushing, that's.......not important.

However, Han Jisung I swear to god.

"You know right, you made it worse by speaking that part abnormally?"

"I do, shut up."

They both burst out laughing as my cheeks flared up with heat.

"What happened then?"

Lia asked as I leaned my head against the headboard.

"I think..... he is going to come again at the café tomorrow."

Lia let out a very excited squeal and Jisung roared.

"GIRL WHAT"

*Flashback*

As if someone graffitied rainbow-flame upon the evening sky, the sunset blossomed in its softest pastel hues. We had talked a little more after he took down my phone number, and he spoke about his embarrassing moments in middle school.

"I had brought my hamster to school to show to my friends who I bragged about it to previously, saying how cute it is. And it attacked me in front of the whole class."

I broke into a fit of laughter, unable to suppress my laughter seeing the look of betrayal on his face.

"Oh my god, that *laughs* that's so funny!"

"Yeah, the whole class found it funny and I was dying out of embarrassment."

"Okay, listen up. When I was in fifth grade, on the last school day before our summer holidays started, our teacher casually asked if we have any holiday plans. And I said I am going to watch Game of Thrones because I wanted to look cool, not knowing it was not a show for kids. The way the teacher was shocked to the core and started lecturing us about what kind of shows we can watch and what we cannot. I thought it's only dragons and war!"

Felix erupted into a bubbly laughter, and I had no time to grow embarrassed as I couldn't help but admire how beautiful his laugh was.

Realizing it was becoming dark, I stood up.

"We should get going now. It's becoming late."

"Oh yeah I gotta go too."

Standing up himself, we walked out of the forest as we neared the main road.

"I really enjoyed today. Thank you for this, seriously." He lightly bumped his shoulder into mine. I bit back a smile at that.

"I enjoyed a lot too. Thank you for being such a good company."

Felix beamed up in a smile.

And his smile was contagious.

"I'll get going then, byeee!"

He waved his hand as he slowly started walking away while still looking at me.

"Have a good night!"

I exclaimed as I waved him back.

"See you tomorrow!" Shooting a last grin after saying that, he turned front as he left.

Tomorrow?

*End of flashback*

"And that's what happened."

Both of them nodded their heads in sync.

"Don't kill me for this, but I think he is interested in you."

"Bold of you to assume I won't."

Jisung immediately got off the bed snickering as he successfully avoided the fist that bolted his way.

Lia slowly shifted her butt backwards, holding her hands infront of her in a defensive position, breaking out in a sly smile. "Alright, I won't say that he likes you, but he does like spending time with you. I mean, he is going to come to the café again tomorrow just to meet you!"

How I wish butterflies hadn't erupted in my stomach at that. I threw a pillow at her and she ducked her head, blocking it as it landed on the ground instead.

"Oh my god Lia, she's blushing."

Googles how to resist throwing off my best friend through the window.

"ANYWAYS, my stomach is growling like King Mufasa." I stood up, about to walk to the kitchen. "I'll go cook something. Do you guys want ramen?"

And they both forgot about Felix at the mention of food as they hollered in excitement.

My cows.
