It was a rainy Saturday afternoon when Yoongi called me to ask for a second date. I must admit that I didn't expect him to call so soon for a second meeting. He asked , or better said demanded ,to drive cause we were about to go to one of the biggest mall centers in Seoul. I was so excited to finally be able to visit the city. It was also a big benefit to visit the city with a local who speaks the language.
The weather was forcing you to seek refuge in the closest shopping mall that you could find. So
Times Square Mall in Seoul was full of people. I was amazed by the place. It was a bright and enormous shopping mall. It has dozens of restaurants to choose from and we were having lunch on a charming roof terrace. The breathtaking views of Seouls surrounding hills made me take my camera and take photos while we were waiting for our food. We were going to have the famous barbeque korean meatballs. In order to make me feel more like home, Yoongi promised to take me out and eat my favorite dishes from back home. Or at least a wannabe version of my favorite food."Does it taste like Swedish home, away from home? "
Yoongi was cocking his head and gave me a rather playful look.
He was dressed very casually , all in black. Black shirt, black jeans and a black cap."Well, yeah but just a lot spicier...and with barbeque!" We started to laugh and then his playful smirk was again on his pretty face. He was definitely checking me out from head to toe ,all while licking his lips. He didn't even started to eat , while I was already stuffing my stomach like crazy.
"You should definitely begin to eat Yoongi. Try concentrating on the food. Believe me it's delicious."
"It's hard to concentrate when you look like this. I'm sure the food it's delicious, but the view it's breathtakingly beautiful so I'm just admiring it."
"You should continue to concentrate on me, but I don't want you to do that on an empty stomach."
Our teasing exchange of flirty lines slowly turned into more serious topics.
"Yoongi, can I ask you a question? I know it's weird, but I've been wondering this in the back of my mind since we started to..I don't know how to call this...to become closer,maybe? But I find it weird that you are so nice to me. Why are you being this nice so suddenly and randomly?"
He looked at me with such an intensity in his eyes and I felt like an unstoppable force was drawing me to him even more. The feeling was so strong that it almost left me breathless. I felt so attracted to this guy that it scared me to death. But at the same time I felt strange that he found a sudden interest in me.
"Part of it is because I'm just trying to be friendly. I know it's extremely hard to find new friends in a foreign country when you don't speak the language. And I think I've made it pretty crystal clear that I like you. Even though I find it funny to tease you. "
"You talk pretty often about you understanding how it is to be a foreigner in a new country. Have you ever been a foreigner?"
"Yeah. In the past year I've participated quite often in different types of piano competitions here in Asia and in Europe. I still remember how terrifying it was to go shopping for groceries in Germany! A nightmare!"
