Neighbor || Seokrona (Rewriting)

climb

Seokhoon came home at the aftertoon from university only to find Rona in the tree once again. The younger waved from a low branch that could just barely be seen below the leaves. Seokhoon smiled and waves back.

He went inside and placed his bag on the sofa. He set out food and water for Seoltang since he arrived a bit late and only fed her this morning. Then, he returned outdoors.

"Seokhoon-ah!" Rona shouted from the tree, 
"Come up here with me!"

Seokhoon stuffed his hands on his pocket and made his way across the street.

How does she think I'm gonna get up there?

When Seokhoon reached the tree, he looked up to Rona who was 6 feet above him.

"Rona I don't know how to climb a tree!" Seokhoon yelled upwards.
Rona jumped down a few branches at ease and sat a 2 feet above him.

"What do you mean? It's easy! Come on I'll tell you what branches to step on."

Seokhoon laughed but still complied at her request. Grabbing onto the lowest branch and having Rona guide him, until they were high off the ground.

They sat in the part where the branches curved outwards so they were perfect to sit in it and rest your back against it, which is what Seokhoon did.

Rona on the other hand, was just sitted beside the branch beside him with her eyes closed. It was a pretty windy afternoon . 

He looked beside him and stared at the person beside him. She was wearing plain shirt, with her hair on a messy french braid. The wind slightly blew her bangs, making her face more visible. 

She looked, ethereal.

"Pretty." Seokhoon mindlessly said while looking at her.

Rona opened her eyes and looked at him, "What?"

Seokhoon went back to his senses and got flustered.

WAIT DID I JUST SAY THAT OUTLOUD-

"I m-mean, the view up here is pretty haha." Seokhoon awkwardly said, his face getting redder.

"Yah are you okay? You're getting red again," Rona said, placing her hand on his forehead. 

Seokhoon's body stiffened and froze.

Seokhoon wtf is happening to you-

"Yah you're getting hotter, are you sick?"

Seokhoon cleared his throat and removed Rona's hand on his forehead.

"Y-yeah I'm o-okay."

Rona looked at him worriedly. She then went down the tree, looking at Seokhoon who was still sitted on the branch.

"Come with me." She then looked away and started to walk to her house.

"WAIT WHAT-" Seokhoon said flustered, already on the ground.

Rona looked back at him sternly.

"Okay maam."
