"You know what they say?"
"What?"
"That he's a boy version of you."
"Ha?! Really?"
"Mhm."
"Well, that's strange."
"Know what else they say...?"
"Nope."
"That once you meet the boy version of you, you are fucked."

Continuation... (18th march, 2020)
"Hey. Ji-U."
-There you were...leant against your car with your arms crossed as you smiled at me delicately.
Stunned for a second, I look around us. Confirming its just us there, I look back at you with a frown.
"Why are you..um...here now-"
"Isn't it obvious?"
-You said, uncrossing your arms as you pushed yourself forward and strode to me slowly.
"I was waiting for you."
"All this time?"
-I asked checking my watch.
You say nothing to that as you huffed a soft chuckle and intertwined our palms.
"Lets go."
You said gesturing at the car, and I stood bewildered, for we spent time together in 'your place' during the weekends, and today isn't one.
"I uh.. I have class tomorrow."
-I reminded you, completely realising the high probability for us both to end under the sheet on your bed, making me impossible to mentally function properly the next working day ; the very reason why you scheduled weekends for this.
You smiled.
"Don't worry. I will drop you back before it gets too late."
-You reassured and I nibbled on my lips hesitantly, contemplating.
"It will be fine, Ji-U."
-You said, tucking a hair strand behind my ear.
"C'mon."
My heart soars with delight, thrilled at any and every opportunities that it gets to spend some quality time with you. Thus I mirror your smile, but then suddenly my mind remembered the earlier event from the newsroom. Hence I stay still, not budging from my spot as I cut the smile and gaze elsewhere.
You noticed this and your smile stretched.
"Hmm, looks like someone is still mad. At me."
-Unlocking our hands, you tilted your head slightly. Your smokey grey bangs dangling to a side, cascading down one of your eye like silver.
