Salem (Third POV)

It had been three weeks.

Salem moved back into her home in Seoul about a week ago, and everything at the company was going fine. She finally got back in contact with all of her friends in Korea. They had been going to bars and getting blackout drunk as a celebration for her being back. This annoyed Saul because he was the one who came to pick her up most times.

Recently Saul and Salem had been getting closer, she found out very quickly that he wasn't the asshole he put out it was just his defense mechanism to keep untrustworthy people away. There were a couple times where he wasn't busy with work and he would come out to hang with Salem and all her friends. She also realized even quicker that he became funnier when he was speaking his native tongue. It seemed like he could truly be himself, though his english was impeccable and he didn't have any trace of a Korean accent she realized he preferred to speak in Korean most times.

Salem liked the bond that the group created. Min-Ho was officially over Salem, Kang explained to her that when she went missing for that short period of time he would get blackout drunk and go to the their favorite spots when they were a couple and just sit and cry there. He even told her how he went to the old playground they would talk at in the middle of the night. Eventually he got over it all though, he finally came to the realization and started focusing on his career. Though she hadn't seen him in a while they still texted almost every single day.

Salem and Saul decided to take things slow for now. By slow that meant meaningful dates to get to know eachother without any of the extra drama, or ulterior motives.

They were currently riding bikes around the Han River and she was getting sick of him babying her.

"자기야 너는 금식할거야!" He yelled after her as she flipped him off and kept pedaling to get away from him. (Baby you're going to fast!)

"잘대감속!" He yelled again trying to catch up. (Slow down)

"빨리! Or else you won't be able to catch me!" She yelled back giggling. (hurry)

She eventually made it down a large hill and decided this is where the bike riding ended, she parked her bike waiting on him. He wasn't far behind her though and when he got to her he was a panting mess.

"정말 피곤하다." He told her while parking his bike and laying his head on her shoulder. (I'm so exhausted)

She rolled her eyes and dragged him to the nearest bench.

"Oh stop it you big baby, you're okay." She cooed at him and pinched his cheeks which made him blush.

"하지 마." He slapped her hands away playfully, hiding his face in her neck. (stop it)

"귀여." She continued while still pinching his cheeks. (cute)

"하지 말라고." He whined again burying his face deeper in her neck. (I said stop)

Through his endless protest Salem continued to mock him. She knew that he acted tough on the outside but he was really an adorable big baby at heart. When he finally lifted his face and looked at her, his face was so read it looked like he had been drinking.

"What's wrong Saul?" She asked him smirking. He knew she was mocking him yet again

He shook his head really fast and ran away screaming still shaking his head. Any other person that wasn't them would think he was insane.

He's such a little kid. She thought to herself as she began chasing him.

"어디로가나요?" She asked chasing him. (Where are you going?)
