I wanted to do homage to Minzy's beautiful song: Superwoman. 

- Taeil rushes back to the library only to find Minzy fast asleep on a book.


click! – ch. 3 superwoman.


[Taeil POV]


'congrats Lee Taeil, your clumsy ass managed to forget the only thing you were carrying', I scolded myself as I dashed through the campus. The clock ticked at my every step; It was a matter of minutes before the building closed.


"S-sorry, I forgot my backpack here", I gasped for air, supporting myself with the reception's mahogany counter.

"I put It In the lost and found box, go fetch It", the librarian gestured me to go deep down the hallway.

I hastily looked around the space in search for the lost item when my eyes encountered a figure slumped on the study table.

"Minji-jjing?!", I instantly recognized her.


With an open book under her head like a pillow, her reddish locks fell on the pastel-coloured fabric of her blouse. She looked sculpted by an artist madly in love with his muse. Her beauty was ethereal.

Even the Minzy who always worked her ass off, who was always available to help everyone could get tired. She was so human too, even if at that moment she resembled an angel.


I looked down at the table scattered with copies of the Open Day program.

"You're working on the event while studying too?".

I recalled hearing her reviewing In the middle of the night. She gave all the hours of her day to organize the event, that's why she had to borrow a few when the sun was past gone to focus on her own studies.


"You should take care of yourself too", I whispered before gently rocking her arm.

"Just 5 more minutes... please", she moaned.

"The librarian is about to kick us out...", I met his disapproving eyes.

"H-ha? T-taeil oppa?... It can't be...".


I called a cab as soon as I retrieved the backpack. She was too sleepy to disagree anyway.


"It's the yellow building at the end of the street", I Instructed the driver and carefully looked at the street.

Her head suddenly dropped on my shoulder, finding a comfortable resting spot. I tried with all my might to be the best head pillow a taxi could offer, in no way I could interrupt her sacred nap.

"Rest all you need, you deserve It. You worked so hard",

I took a glimpse of her serene expression reflected in the rear-view mirror. How could such an energetic girl like her look so peaceful?

"what am I to do with you? how can I move on If you're always In my eyes?'.


[...]


The sun shone brightly the next morning but the golden rays seemed to kiss only her.


"This Is to show my gratitude for yesterday. I would've slept In the library If It wasn't for you".

She revealed the cup of coffee she clumsily hid behind her back and smiled.

"You should rest more, even superwoman gets tired from time to time".

I wrapped my palms around the cup of coffee, encompassing her soft hands in the process.

Our eyes met for a moment.

The buzz of the lively university life seemed to dim in that instant frozen in time.


Sometimes I wonder If I was the only one to feel it.


"Care to stop for a chat?", Minzy handed me the coffee.

The smile on my face vanished as soon as I noticed him approaching.

"Maybe next time? I'm late to Instrumental practice right now. Thanks for the coffee minji-ya~".

I bit my lip and left.


[...]


"Taeil Hyung, what are you doing here so early? Practice is at 9.30".
