The Day Doom Knocked on Our Doors

Chapter 11: Amusement Park

"Calm down Bo Young. It was an accident." She told herself as she closed the door of her bedroom behind her. She thought the most embarrassing moment she's ever experienced was talking with Seo In Guk about their feelings, but no. That wasn't it.

Come on. It's not like you touched him 'there' deliberately.

"I didn't touch him 'there'. Accidentally or otherwise." She hissed at herself. She wasn't really sure since she quickly pulled her hand off him.

It didn't escape her eyes how his throat moved as he swallowed nonetheless, and that's already quite the giveaway if there was one. Then again, she should be able to tell if she did, right? Right?

"I think I'm going to go crazy!" Bo Young continued as she walked to her bed. She pulled at her hair as soon as she sat on the edge, recklessly lay on it, and stomped her feet.

Shouldn't you use this as an advantage though?

"What in the world do you mean?" She asked herself while she covered her eyes with her arm. "I think I'm going to cry."

Oh, I don't know. But you know, between the two of you, shouldn't he be more embarrassed? You can just act like nothing happened cause it was an accident to begin with. But he was the one who felt you touch him.

"For crying out loud! No one touched anyone!" 

Why are you stressing yourself about it then?

Bo Young couldn't help but make sobbing sounds due to embarrassment. She couldn't believe she's having a discussion with herself about what happened in the living room. Concerning Seo In Guk on top of that!

With a heavy sigh, Bo Young rearranged herself on the bed and pulled on the covers. Right, she can just pretend nothing happened. "I mean nothing really did."

You know, you can take that as a catalyst for testing intimacy.

"Oh my...! Just sleep! Bo Young, please."

----

Seo In Guk was certain he wanted to test waters with her in terms of intimacy. He just didn't think of intimacy that much further. He felt like someone poured a bucket of ice cold water on him earlier. In fact he thought he died at that very moment and was just revived by her apology.

No. She didn't really get to touch anything that's very significant. She, however, may have been a few centimeters close to sending his soul out of his body. He wasn't sure if she saw how the color in him drained but he sure felt it happening.

He thought sharing their feelings to each other was the most nerve wracking thing he's ever experienced in his life. But the universe does have a funny way of reminding you that you're just assuming things and it's in control. In Guk can only shake his head at that.

If she was quick to get away from him, he on the other hand stayed sitting on the couch for a few minutes more, trying to regain consciousness as if he passed out. "Get a grip, you need to sleep. You have work tomorrow." He said to himself as he stood up from the couch.

"61 days."

No. He did not lose that information in the chaos. While he wasn't actively keeping track of how many days they have left, he wasn't one to forget how little time they have.
