"Seohae?"

"You both know each other?" Jipyeong asked Seohae as she nodded.

"He's my schoolmate from Hyosan Academy where I went and studied." Seohae spoke up as she sat beside Junhyuk.

"Why are you here?" Jipyeong asked Junhyuk and told him that they had a business to attend here in Jeju.

"I remembered that we came together on the same grade school, so I visited you..." Junhyuk replied.

"What's the commotion all about?" All of them shifted their attention on a guy wearing a gray sweater and brown pants that made him look attractive.

Jay?

"Oh, Seohae..." As soon as Jay came out from the bathroom, his eyes were locked on Seohae. "What brings you here?"

"Sheㅡ"

"I came here to visit Jipyeong as well." Seohae replied.

"Why didn't you text me that your here? You made me worried tho..." Jay pouted as he sat next to Junhyuk.

Junhyuk was confused how did Jay had a number from Seohae when she isn't giving any other contacts except her closest relatives.

Text?

"You must talk with each other, I'll head out and breath fresh air." Seohae stood up and slung her bag on her side.

Without their responses, two of them nodded except Jay who was locking his gaze on the young girl who stepped out of the door.

She kept walking as she was checking if there are any places to kill her boredom. She arrived a crossing lane and saw an arcade near the bookstore. She rapidly went there with a sweat from her forehead.

"A claw machine!" She jumped in joy after seeing some tall glass boxes which contains alot of plushies inside. She took few coins from her pocket and inserted them one by one.

She was determined to get the fox figure which caught her presence and was eagerly wanting it. "God!" Seohae heaved a sigh from her parted lips as she was out of patience. She loose the grip from the controller and stepped an inch and was scanning each of her pocket.

"What if I lend you a coin? Will you talk nicely to me?" A guy from her back made her suprised. She ignored him and was still busy finding coins to insert on the game. The guy replaced his hands on the controller and inserted a coin below.

"Are you my stalker?" Seohae asked as her eyes were glued on the claw heading to the plushy.

"I was worried that you'll get lost, so I followed you and ended up here seeing you dissapointed on a plushy you wanted." Jay respond as he was about to press the 'get' button.

"Are you sure your going to get it?" Seohae asked like a nursery kid who wanted the plushy so much. "Don't you trust me?"

Seohae looked at him as if she was looking at his soul. "I bet you'll lose." She shortly replied. He pressed the button and waited to grab the plushy. It got caught! Both of them were nervous that ended holding the controller as it was heading to the hole.

"YES!" Both of them exclaimed and shouted making people walk past them suprised. They hugged each other as if they won an olympic and was out of themselves. People started to seek attention on them and thought that they were couple.

"It isn't Valentine's Day, but feels like it's already February."

"I'm jealous, I want to experience that too."

"Both of them make a cute couple."

They started to make compliments that made Seohae come back on her sense. She immediately pulled Jay from the hug and looked away feeling embarrassed.
