This isn't right [Joshua FF]

3

We finally arrive at his house, it's breathtaking. At the front gate he puts in a key code, I happen to see the code, it's Ji-Won's birthday. The gate opens and we walk towards the front door.

"Oh my god, your house is.." I say but unable to finish the sentence as I admire his house.

He smiles. "Let's go up to my room, I haven't cleaned the living room yet, it's a mess."

"Y-your room? Joshua is that appropriate..?" I stutter. I look at him.

"It's fine. What are you thinking?" He flicks my head, while laughing.

"Hey! That hurts!" I say, while rubbing my forehead in pain.

He ignores me and continues walking up the stairs to his room. The stairs have gaps in them, which scares Eun-Ji. As I'm walking up the stairs, I looks down. I'm extremely afraid of heights, I freeze.

Joshua notices me standing there. He walks down the previous steps and stands in front of me.

I suddenly realize his presence, he's staring at me.

"You good? You look pale, you've been standing there for the past minute. Are you perhaps afraid of heights?" He asks, looking a little worried.

"O-of course not! Let's hurry up." I say, walking past him, quickly.

He quickly catches up. We're finally on the second floor. Walking up these stairs felt like an eternity, it was never ending.

He laughs.

"What are you laughing at?" I ask.

"Don't worry about it." He says, still smiling. It's as if he knew I was lying, as if he was laughing at me.

We make our way into his room. I notice it's extremely organized. His bed is made neatly, his desk is organized, and his items are put on a shelf in order.

"Are you always this organized? Jeez." I say in awe.

"I hate when rooms are messy and unorganized. It makes me mad." He sighs.

We start by logging into his computer with my account. He teaches me some simple grammatical skills. He helps me with some parts of my essay, insisting that I be creative with my words. A couple of hours go by, we're both extremely exhausted and sleepy. He gets up from his chair.

"Do you drink caffeine? I'm gonna go make some coffee, I'm completely out of energy." He says.

"Yeah, I do." I answer.

"Alright then." He quickly leaves the room and goes downstairs.

After a couple of minutes, he comes back up with two mugs. He hands me one, it's a pretty mug, it seems to be custom made as it has his name on it. I look back at his mug, slightly curious. He has the same mug but in a different color, I quickly realize that they're couple mugs.

"Is this mug for Ji-Won?" I ask.

He looks at me. "Initially, it was for her but I heard she doesn't drink hot drinks so I decided not to give it to her. Do you like it? You can have it if you want, I hardly use it anyway."

"I'm good but thanks anyway. I hardly drink hot drinks as well, I usually drink cold drinks so I don't think I'll be able to use it much." I say.

As I was trying to take a sip of the coffee, my arm suddenly gets a cramp. Some of the coffee spills on my arms. I shriek in pain.

Joshua immediately reacts. He rushes to get a towel and hands it to me. I wipe the hot coffee off. It hurts extremely.

"Wait here. I'll get a first aid kit." He runs downstairs.

He quickly returns with the kit. He gives me a aloe vera gel, made for burns. Seeing that I'm in great pain, he decides to put the gel on my arm, to make it quicker.

"I'll do it." He says.

He gently puts the gel on my skin, it's very refreshing. I watch him as he runs the gel in, looking at him intently. From up close, he's good-looking. Our eyes suddenly meet.

He notices me looking at him. "What's wrong?"

"O-oh nothing. I'm fine now. Let's quickly finish this essay." I turn my head to the computer, avoiding any eye contact. He sighs and agrees, he puts away the first aid kit and continues writing the essay with me.
