Yeji's POV

I felt the morning breeze brushed off my cheeks, it was cold, yet it feels so good. I tried moving but I felt a hand over my shoulder, then I realized, it was Ryujin, her arm is wrapped around my body. I moved my gaze towards her and her eyes are still closed, in short she is still asleep.

I tried standing up carefully to avoid myself from waking her up. I looked around and we were sitting on a bench, near the streets of Seoul, there were still a few raindrops, but the rain isn't heavy just unlike last night.

I tried speaking to wake her up "u-uhm....Ryujin...wake up, it's morning now" I felt my voice hoarse, I think I have a cold.

"O-oh..." She tried moving her eyes and looked around, she stretched out her arms and yawned.

"Oh, do we have classes?" She asked, her eyes are still half open, I think she's still sleepy.

"I should definitely send you back to your home, look, we fell asleep in the streets" I glared at her, I think I looked like an angry mom nagging her kid.

"Oh, it's okay, atleast we didn't get to be kidnapped" she smiled.

Oh my gosh, stop it, it was my weakness.

"Ugh, enough with that, let's go" my hand wrapped around her wrist, pulled her closer to me and we started taking a long walk. We don't have money right now, because we spent all of it last night.

"Where are we going Yeddeong?" She asked in a raspy and low voice and she is walking like a person who drank 20 bottles of soju.

"To your house dummy, I'm sending you back to you mom, I hope she'll nag you" sarcasm is evident in the way I talk to her.

"Stop it Yej, you're making my life worst" her eyes are still half open, is she really that sleepy?

"Look, now you're making me random nicknames huh?" I felt my eyes rolled back due to the way she talked and acted towards me.

"Last night you called me Yeddeong and now Yej? What's next? Yeti?" I made an unpleasant expression and sarcasm is still evident in my voice.

"How about..." She thinks for a second with her hand under her chin.

"Light Fury? She's cute like you" she smiled and intertwined her arm with mine.

"Nah, just tell me your address, you might collapse along the way" I questioned her, but she doesn't want to answer.

"I'll just point out the directions, can I have a piggy back ride?" She asked me.

"Are you sleepy? Why would I do that?" I asked with a hint of sarcasm.

"Because I want to" she said and without having second thoughts, she hopped on my back and hold on tight on my shoulders until she became comfortable behind me, oh my gosh, I felt a sudden heavy weight on my back.

She wrapped her arms and hands around my neck, but she's not trying to choke me.

"Y-you're heavy" I managed to say while trying to walk in the rain covered streets that are slippery, I hope I dont slip.

"It's normal, do you want me to Carry you instead?" She asked me, I can feel her hot breath on my left ear as she spoke with both raspy and low voice.

"Stop with the whispering, it tickles me" I laughed a little, but not too loud, I just laughed loud enough for Ryujin to hear.

"Really? Then I should do this more often" she said, there is a slight hint of teasing in her voice which made me escape another giggle from my mouth.

"Just quit talking cuz your voice is actually loud if I'm close enough to your mouth" I said, trying to sound annoyed, but I don't want to be angry at Ryujin.
