"What did you just call me? How dare you?!" I was in total disbelief when that ugly guy, Kim Jun called me love. I was holding myself back from slapping him so bad.
"What do I call you then? Darling? Baby? Sweetheart? Kitten? Doll?" He stepped closer to me.
"Stay away from me, you creep!" I pushed him hardly, causing him to stumble backwards.
He slightly chuckled, "You've got enough strength for a girl."
No, you've just got no masculinity.
Although I looked very bold from the outside but I could feel my legs shaking, I was scared. I kept my cool and stayed still when he tried to get close to me again.
If he takes one more step closer to me, I'm slapping him. But I didn't get the precious chance as someone immediately ran to me and stood in front of me while protectively shielding me as he faced Kim Jun.
That person's back was facing me but I knew that someone was no-one else but my own crush, Nishimura Riki.
"Just you dare lay a finger on her, Jun. I'll chop your manhood and feed it to stray dogs." I heard the intimidating voice of Riki.
I've always saved myself in such situations and I know I could do the same thing this time too but seeing someone else protect me made me feel a lot safer. I felt like nothing could happen to me.
Whether you accept it or not, there are times when you grow tired of protecting yourself everytime. You just start to wish someone could stand there with you bravely.
"Chill mate, I'm not doing anything! But may I ask who are you to involve in her and my business?"
"You don't need to know that, just leave her alone. Or else I'll call the teachers or the police. You and your family can get arrested for forcing a minor to marry you."
How does he know? Kim Jun seemed to be scared by his words as he sighed and walked out.
"Are you oka--" Riki turned to me as I immediately wrapped my arms around his waist and rested my head on his chest, allowing the rhythm of his heartbeat to calm me. "It's fine, I'm here." He whispered to me softly, patting my back.
I realized he was talking in korean with Kim Jun but I didn't what to interrupt our moment by asking any kind of questions. So, I simply nodded snuggling even closer to him. I missed him and the warmth of his touch. I don't give a shit about moving on from him anymore, I want to love him as much as I can. You only live once after all and one lifetime isn't enough for me to love him.
"I... read your diary. Today and.. also when I came over to your house. I know you can do more than just slap me for it as it's considered invasion of privacy but can I request you to only slap me this time too?"
I slapped his chest playfully, causing him to laugh. Oh, how I missed his nonsense talks. "If we are good now, uhh... then you can let go." He spoke, making me realize that I've been hugging for so long.
"Sorry..." I mumbled.
"No! You can hug me if you want. I... don't mind, hehe." He scratched his nape nervously. Why's he acting so strange? I never thought the Nishimura Riki would be nervous like this around me.
"No, it's fine." I barely smiled at him. "Umm, I will try to somehow... help you with Yena again." I wanted him to stay with me again and I know only the name of Yena could make him do that.
I thought he'd squeal out of happiness but he didn't seem to be much happy with the news. He looked at me in the eye before pulling me in his embrace by my waist with his head buried in the crook my neck, sending shivers down my spine because of his hot breath falling over my cool skin.
Okay, I have one question. I hug him on his waist because I'm too short to reach his shoulders but why does he also hug me everytime by my waist when he's a lot taller than me? It's not like I'm complaining but I'll die of a heart attack if he keeps on hugging me like that.
I waited for him to pull away but he didn't take his hands off my waist. I slightly patted his back. "Do you feel uncomfortable when I hug you?" He asked in a deeper voice making me feel his every word on my neck.
But do I feel uncomfortable? No, in fact I feel like the safest person when his hands are wrapped around me.
"N-no." The hell, why did I have to stutter?!
"Then let me hug you more." He tightened his grip and pulled me even closer. "I like it when you're close to me like this."
W-what? Is he planning to kill me today with his words and actions? Oh god, both his words and actions speak the loudest to me. But... same. I love it when we're close like this.

"If that guy ever tries to touch you again, just tell me. I'll kill him with my own hands." I nodded at Riki's words with a smile as we walked home together. "And... your dad- I mean, father. I'll talk to him if you want me to. You don't have to fight alone anymore."
"Thank you." I looked at him. A simple thank you isn't even enough to express my gratitude towards him. Now I think no matter what but I can't be forced to marry Kim Jun. I feel so relieved, I can finally sleep peacefully today.
"Riki, how much did you read?"
His ear flushed red, "Uh, almost all of your recent diary entries? Look, I'm sorry again."
"But you didn't know Korean, how did you understand what I wrote?" Yep, finally the most important question.
"I've been taking korean classes for two months." What? For Yena, right? But he said he'd never do that just for a girl.
"Why didn't you--"
"You should go home now! Fast-fast!" He pushed me.
"But--"
"I missed walking you home so much, Ahn Miso." I went completely silent after hearing what he just said as he smiled innocently before waving his hands at me. "Bye!"
