Beyond Reachable - Kim Soohyun & Kim Jiwon

PAGE 8

Several hours later, I arrived at the location Minho gave me while the sun was going down. It was a building in front of the streets, luckily the bus station was right beside it. I walked over to the building, "Yampama's Restaurant?" I wondered. "Never heard such a thing..."

I unlocked my phone and checked the reviews of this building. I took an alternative look, "this feels pretty sketchy." I shivered. "It doesn't look like the standard restaurant that a suit would walk into. That being said, I will trust what he's doing..."

A considerate lady seated me inside the restaurant. I was seated where I could see the entire restaurant, which was a huge support. "Would you want a drink?" The kind lady asked.

I nodded back in reply, sending her back to the kitchen. Out of nowhere, a sense of an elegant body bumped my arm causing a spill on my clothing. "Oh, I apologized!" She panicked while grabbing the tissue from my table.

"By no means, it's okay-" I stopped, recognizing her face. "It's you!"

"Have we met?" She was perplexed.

"Y-you're the girl I saw the other day! You know... On the bridge?" I explained carefully.

She stood on the spot turning her head to the side. "You saw me?" She scratched her head. "Oh... I did." It took some time before she recalled the time we'd met. "So, what are you doing here?"

"I-I'm dining alone. You know... This restaurant provides a large amount of nutrients in their food, right." I replied while cringing at my response. "I could've said something more reasonable..." I thought to myself.

"That's uncommon..." She stared at me with a strange face. "You do know this restaurant is famous for dates? Take a look around, most tables are couples... I don't think a single family is eating here."

"I-It is?! Well, I'm waiting for someone." I replied nervously. "That response probably cleared my awkwardness by a small amount," I spoke inside my head.

"You're? Therefore, I should be going now." She smiled spookily. "It was nice meeting you again."

After that talk, she walked away and sat at a nearby table across from me. The conversation felt like a lifetime, and so I unlocked the pass of my phone. 

'Dude! When are you getting here?' I texted him.  

In no time he replied, 'I'm sorry! However, my mom gave me a call about my little sister who fainted. I'm sorry for the late notice, Jaehyun! I will treat you out next time!'

I panicked. 'What?! Is she okay? What about the girl that you were supposed to meet up with?!'

'Here. This is what she should look like.' He sent a photo, and I zoomed on her face. I rapidly covered my mouth with my hand in shock. I lifted my phone towards the girl I bumped into.
"It's her!"

'Make something up okay?! She said she's inside the restaurant and make sure that she does not get weirded out!' He texted me, though I could sense how serious he is on through the phone.
