CHAPTER 3: ATTRACTION

23 June, Wednesday
..."that night, YN couldn't stop thinking about Moon Jo."
I woke up at 7. My alarm buzzed so much that I woke up annoyed and almost threw my phone. But, slowly, when my brain flashed all of the things that happened last night, a warm fuzzy feeling was felt in my body. Moon Jo was so cute. I kept repeating those moments when I realised, my gut told me I have a weird feeling. that feeling was of..
SOMEONE WATCHING ME.
someone was watching my every move, my each expression. I looked around to see that if my door was open, but it was shut right.

YN: I think I'm kind of tired.

I got up from my bed, and stretched out my body to prepare myself to face all those challenges today. Like every day.

Moon Jo's POV:
When YN woke up, I felt a warm feeling in my body. The moment she fluttered her eyes open, it felt like she woke up for me. She breathed for me. She existed for me. That small hole in the wall really helped a lot. Now I could watch her every move, every emotion. I'm excited, YNnie.

YN grabbed a pair of trousers with a formal black shirt. It was formal day at Uni today, everyone had to dress formally. YN grabbed her classiest shirt and ran to the shower stall. After coming back, she did her hair in a wavy ponytail. Before grabbing her glasses, she went to the kitchen to make a toast for herself. She put the bread in the toaster in a hurry, and turned to boil some noodles. Only to, bump into Moon Jo.

Moon Jo: Good morning young lady, what's going on?
YN: Good morning! Just making some breakfast for myself.
Moon Jo: Hmm. That's a really cute outfit ;)
YN: Oh thanks! actually it is formal day at Uni today soo I had to
Moon Jo: You look beautiful. Sit down, I'll make you some nice herbal tea. Do you have time for me?
YN: of course! I have 2 hours to go.
Moon Jo: That's great!

Moon Jo made the tea for YN, and she sipped on it. It actually did wonders, all of her tiredness kind of vanished!
Did Moon Jo put his magic in it, she wondered. :D

Moon Jo: YNnie?
YN: Yep?
Moon Jo: I want to ask you sooo many questions!
YN: and? you can ask as much as you want :)
Moon Jo: (giggles) where are you from?
YN: I'm actually from Jeolla-Do Province. Near Soahn-Do.
Moon Jo: I knew it! That sexy Jeolla-Do accent got me :<
YN, laughing: Where are you from? Are you in Seoul since the beginning?
Moon Jo: Yep! I was born here only.
Who's all in your family?
YN: just me and...
YN went silent. She replied later with a bitter tone. Her eyes went from being soft and bright to low and.. filled with an emotion which you call angst.
YN: my step'mother'.
Moon Jo: Hmm.
Moon Jo understood. He was excellent at reading people. He did it since years. Just staying silent and observing people. in fact, he had become such a professional that it was sometimes creepy that how accurate he was about how others are feeling.
He now knew what YN was missing. She too, longed for a mother. For love.
He changed the topic as he saw YN all quiet.

Moon Jo: What year at Uni? :D
YN: it's just my first year! I got in uni in April.
Moon Jo: Yet they're burdening you so much. I hate it.
YN: yeah... wait- how did you know?
Moon Jo: your eyes tell. how much my honey is tired and exhausted, I know. But don't worry. You're working very hard and I'm so proud of you.

YN was shocked. How did these words spill out of his beautiful mouth like that? she completely ignored the word 'honey' and focused on how much comfort he told her. he never touched her. he didn't dare to but always, she felt a warm, comfortable feeling in his words.

Looking at YN's eyes, Moon Jo could tell that she was mesmerized by him. Her gaze was so loving. But Moon Jo knew, from inside who loved her more. He could die for her. But how did he love her so much? they just met last night. Moon Jo knew. Only Moon Jo knew why he loved her so much.

YN, who was now all pink, got up to put the empty cup in the sink.

YN did not realise how an hour passed by, listening to Moon Jo's comforting words.

YN: thanks, Moon Jo-ssi. The tea was amazing.
Moon Jo: It's my pleasure honey. Tell me if I can be of help.

YN walked to her room and grabbed her bag. and also, she didn't forget to take the book, which she promised to give to Moon Jo last night.

YN: Moon Jo-ssi?
Moon Jo: hmm?
YN simply stretched out her arm, signaling Moon Jo to take the book.

Moon Jo: Thank you so much dear. It means so much to me :)

Moon Jo took the book and their fingers brushed against each other. It was such a magical moment for YN.

YN: it's okay Moon Jo-ssi. You can return it anytime.

Moon Jo wanted to hug her, but not today.

This made YN's morning so good. And as they say, if the morning goes well, the whole day goes well.
