3rd P.O.V
WILLIAM SAT patiently in the car, his mind filled with curiosity and anticipation. He couldn't help but wonder who this person was that had captured his sister's attention and admiration. Alice had been talking about him incessantly, praising his skills and talents, leaving William intrigued and eager to meet this mysterious figure.

Lost in his thoughts, William absentmindedly flipped through his textbook, his eyes scanning the pages but his mind elsewhere. As he delved into the words on the page, a tapping sound broke the silence, drawing his attention back to the present.

Startled, William looked up to find a silhouette of a lady standing outside his car window. He blinked, trying to make out the features of the person before him. Slowly, the fading light revealed his sister, Alice Kwon, grinning at him with unabashed excitement. Her blue eyes sparkled with expectation, and her grip on her bag tightened with anticipation.

Before William could react, his gaze shifted to the towering figure standing beside Alice. His breath caught in his throat as he took in the sight of a young man with fiery red hair. The stranger's eyes locked with William's, and a flicker of surprise and curiosity danced in his gaze.

Heart pounding, William rolled down the window, letting in a gust of fresh air as he peered out at his sister and the enigmatic young man. "Noona?" he said, his voice filled with a mix of surprise and intrigue. "Who is this?"

His bright cerulean eyes were immediately drawn to the lean, towering young man with fiery red hair, who stared back at him with a mix of curiosity and surprise, his eyes widening ever so slightly.

"William, come out of the car for a minute. I want you to meet the guy I was talking about," Alice exclaimed, her voice brimming with excitement.

William hesitated for a moment, his mind racing with questions. However, curiosity got the better of him. William obliged, placing his textbook on the seat beside him before stepping out of the car. Closing the door behind him. As he stood next to Alice. His cerulean eyes locked with the stranger's intense gaze. William couldn't help but notice that the guy was a few inches taller, igniting a subtle spark of annoyance within him. However, he masked his reaction, maintaining his composed demeanour and posing his signature charming grin.

Alice extended her arm, presenting her friend with an air of pride and proundness. "Will, I want you to meet my friend, James Lee. He's the guy I was telling you about!"

William's bright cerulean eyes meticulously studied James, from head to toe, silently assessing his appearance. Doubt crept into his mind as he wondered, 'Is this the guy my sister was so adamant about? he looks more like a delinquent.' His left eyebrow arched, his head tilted slightly to the side, displaying his scepticism.

Unexpectedly, Alice slung her arm over William's shoulder, pulling him downward and surprising him. "James, this is my handsome little brother, William. He is our family's pride and joy! I remembered telling you that he is 2 years younger than us." Alice declared with a touch of parental pride, her voice resonating with admiration Like a mother boasting about her son's achievement to her neighbours.

"Yeah, I recall," James replied, his gaze remaining fixed on William ever since he came into view. His eyes locked onto William's bright cerulean eyes, which seemed to hold an otherworldly depth, like water trapped within his irises. He had assumed that no one could rival Alice's mesmerizing blue eyes, which had driven his classmates wild with admiration. Yet, now that he had met William, her eyes paled in comparison. William's glistening cerulean pairs, illuminated by the golden rays of the setting sun, gleamed like precious sapphire gemstones. In that moment, James found himself captivated, hypnotized by their brilliance.

The world seemed to fade around them as James momentarily lost himself in the depths of William's gaze. It bothered James how he can't seem to take his attention away from the boy in front of him, even if he want to avert his gaze, his eyes would always seem to magnetized back to him.

Although he must admit, in terms of looks, Alice's Younger brother is in a class of his own.

Slowly regaining his composure, James tore his gaze away from William's captivating eyes. When William extended his hand, a genuine smile gracing his pretty face. "Nice to meet you, Hyung." he said, his voice calm and composed. "Alice noona has spoken highly of you." William said Warmly.

"Likewise," James replied grabbing William's extended hand with a small grin tugging his lip as he placed his free hand in his pocket "Alice has certainly built up quite a story about you," James replied.

William let out a chuckle that tickled James' ears, he took a quick glance at his sister before he replied "Is that so? I'm curious as to what my sister told you about me." he continued, "I hope it's nothing embarrassing." William Jestered.

"No need to worry, Your sister only sang praises about you," James stated, maintaining his grin on his lips, "Really? Then that's a relief." William said, their hands separated afterwards.

Alice however, was over the moon as she watch them interact. She always imagined this scene replaying in her head over and over like a broken music plaque. Her contagious smile never left her lips as she observed the two people in front of her, specifically her younger brother who had finally spoken more than two sentences for the first time to a person he just met. She felt like a proud mother, seeing her baby brother interact with new people besides her and their parents.

"Sorry to interrupt, but do you guys wanna go to the arcade? It's my treat by the way!" Alice beamed like an eager child going to the amusement Park for the first time, earning a soft chuckle from William as he nod. "As long as you are the one paying."  James Replied, before taking a quick glance at William.

"Alright then, Let's go!" Alice replied before the three of them entered the car and drove off.
