What did she just say?

"Oh-ah oh my gosh! I did not-did not mean to s-offend you by what I said-I.. I-," she was stuttering.

I inhale and exhaled,"Ji-won... calm down. I'm not offended or anything I was just... surprised?"

She looked at me with a tinge of blush on her cheeks that were highlighted by the dim lights of the dance floor.

"Oh... I...I understand," she replied.

But me her boyfriend? That beautiful woman, my girlfriend? Are you kidding me? Like seriously? I'll be the happiest guy.

"No!," she suddenly said.

That brought me back to the situation at hand. I looked at where she was looking, and then I saw a guy searching for someone looking one by one to every woman that he would pass by.

Is he the guy that Krystal was saying? Ji-won's ah.. ex boyfriend? Chang-wook?

"Oh my gosh, he can't see me," she said probably to herself.

She's anxious. What did that guy do to her to make her so anxious like this? Did he hurt her? Just the thought of her getting hurt by someone like him gives me a feeling of need to protect her from that someone.

"I... I better go. Yes, I better go," she said to herself again.

Then I grab her left arm gently.

"Are you serious?," I asked her.

"About leaving? Well, yes?," she replied, unsure if she's saying the right words.

"About asking me to be your ah... boyfriend?," I asked her awkwardly.

"If I answer yes, will you help me leave?," she replied, still looking at the approaching ex-boyfriend of hers.

I did not reply and just hold her hand and lead her to leave that crowded place. When we reached the entrance, she pulled my hands.

"Why?," I asked her.

"There's a lot of cameras out there waiting for guests to leave. We should use the back door," she replied.

Oh yeah, she's right.

I nodded, and we turned back to find the back door.

"What about your car?," I asked her.

"I will ask someone to fetch it for me. Why didn't you have your own car?," she asked without looking at me but still holding my hand.

"I brought my car," I replied.

"Then we should find the valet and get it," she said with authority.

Okay? Do I make the right decision? It's better than attending those blind dates.

We finally reached the back door. I opened it, and I let her get out first, then I followed not too long. We managed to get out without anyone noticing.
