Wrong Concern | Namra x Onjo | AOUAD

Ch.5 (Pt.2) • Realization

(Onjo's POV)

After dinner with Suh-yeok ,I got back to my dorm and leaned into the counter bar smiling.

I kept staring at the bracelet he gave me and chuckled.

I saw my brother approaching me from behind and spoke
"Saying you're beautiful and hot doesn't mean he likes you. Stop imagining things."

"I'm not imagining things. I can sense it."

"Last time you sensed something, you ended up having roller blades for a boy who dumped you right after that. Ohh~ Ugly~"

"That hurts. Are you really my big brother?" I asked and continued hitting him.

"Because I'm your brother? I know how dumb you are when it comes to girls."

"Come on. What should I do here? Should I make the move?" I asked happily.

He thought about it for a second and answered "Never date a friend. It won't work."

I sighed and knew he wouldn't help.

"But if that friend is Suh-yeok. You have my greenlight. Let's do it!" He continued.

"What?"

"I like him. That's all. But you have to be sure he has a thing for you at all. Don't make a fool of yourself again." He ended up explaining.

"How do I tell if he does?"

"You're just so smart about everything else, but this,, you're dumb."

I got mad and yelled "How do I know?!"

"Take him on a date!" He yelled back.

"D-date? And?"

"And a love guru here will see if he shows any signs of affection." He explained.

I just nodded at him and smiled.

Suh-yeok and I are now here at Time square.

I took him to one of the recommended restaurants I saw.

'The Cuchara Mexican Eatery'.

After a few minutes of waiting for our food ,our order arrived.

"It looks great. Can you take a picture for me?" He asked me.

I smiled and grabbed my phone to take a photo of him.

"Make sure I look great."

"Smile!" I said and started taking photos.

He kept posing that made me smile.

"How is it?" He asked.

"Handsome."

"Handsome? But nobody is hitting on me at all. Let's just eat." He added and started eating.

I got offended and that made me smile also.
Because no one is hitting on him.
I'm lucky.

"Ehem."

I saw Cheongsan approaching us and sat down next to me.

"I was away for just a second and you already stepped up your game." He whispered.

I just nodded with a smile.

[Sign number one, when you two touch, the physical response will give a hint.]

I remembered what the first rule my brother said.

I looked at Suh-yeok who's asking "Who ordered this one? Can I have a bite?"
