Lia POV:

Paris.

Such a lovely city to be in. Here you're worry free, it's like all your problems just suddenly vanished. I came here to celebrate being free from a abusive and toxic relationship. To be honest, it was hard, but I finally had the courage to break up with him. It's relaxing to travel alone for once, I don't have to worry about anything.

I wanted to go to a café nearby. It had a nice cozy atmosphere to it and it looked beautiful. I went inside and sat down in a chair near the window. The menu was all in French and I couldn't understand anything. I gulped as I saw the waiter coming,  The waiter gave me a friendly smile before asking what I would want to order. 

(I'm using google translate to translate the French LMAO)

"Que voudriez-vous commander madame ?"

I was panicking and tried to speak English but he couldn't understand. When I tried to pull my phone out to translate, someone tapped my shoulder. She had pink hair, slightly taller than me, and pretty eyes.

"Excuse me Miss, are you having trouble ordering? If you want I can order for you"

I gladly accepted her offer and she started to order for me. I thanked her and she gave me a friendly smile back. She looked cute.

"By the way, I'm Shin Ryujin. Would you mind if I sit here with you?"

I hesitated for a minute. I mean we only met 5 mins ago, and she's asking to sit here with me. Well I mean I guess she can, since she was kind enough to order for me.

"I wouldn't mind at all. I'm Choi Julia, but you can call me Lia"

"Julia... That's a pretty name" She smiled at me, not in a creepy way but in a friendly way. We weren't awkward at all, in fact, being around her made me feel safe some how.

I looked at the time and I didn't realize it was getting late. We talked and laughed for hours already. "Oh crap. Ryujin, I gotta go. It's getting late" Before I could leave she asked shyly "C-can I have your number Julia?" I smiled at her and grabbed a piece of paper and pen. 

"Lia if you're free tomorrow, I could maybe give you a tour of Paris?"

"I'd love that Ryujin" I wave at her goodbye and head to my hotel. She was all I could think of that night, nothing else. And Knowing that I'll get to spend time with her tomorrow just makes my heart go faster. Everything is just going too fast for me. I just got out of a relationship, I'm not ready for another one. "Lya. Am I in love? Or am I just being silly? I mean I'm a grown ass woman talking to her stuff toy she had since she was a child"

My thoughts got interrupted when I got a notification text from a number.

Unknown: Hey Lia! It's Ryu here, just seeing if you're still awake. Can't sleep right now

** Set Nickname to Ryu **

Lia: I can't sleep as well. I'm excited about tomorrow

Again, we talked for hours, not realizing about the time.

Ryujin: Lia it's almost 2 am LMAO

Lia: Yeah, we're so gonna regret this tomorrow!

Ryujin: It's fine, let's just meet at the café again. Then I'll tour you.

Lia: Sounds good. Night night Ryu!

Ryujin: Night Night Lia <3

I was shocked when she sent a heart. I felt butterflies in my stomach but not like the ones I felt when I first met my boyfriend, Ryujin's is different, almost stronger. No the heart doesn't mean anything right? It's just a friendly heart! Nothing else. We literally just met today. My thoughts keep rumbling in my mind. I just wanna sleep and be with her tomorrow.
