(Sooha's POV)

The cool air hit my face the moment I open the door to the rooftop, and I breath in once more before taking a step foreward. My eyes roam around a bit, but see no sign of a familar ginger head. I bite my lower lip, I swear if this was a prank-

"Hi."

I swirl back when I heard the tiny voice, coming to face the cute boy from earlier. I open my mouth, then close it. I really do not know what to say in such kind of situation. Would not it sound too rude to ask him what he want to say?

"I didn't think that you would actually come." He says shyly, being unable to tear eyes from his shoes. "Thankyou."

I am tongue tight once again. What should I say, you are welcome? In the end, I choose to remain silent, least I blurt out something unappropriate. I pull my lip into a thin line. God, the silence is so awkward.

"So..umm.." I choose my words, careful not to sound rude or anything. "What do you want to say?"

"Y-yeah." His face flushed even more deeper, still not looking up. And I have to stop myself from cooing, this boy is so adorable, just like a baby bread.

"I-I have admired you for a while, Noona." He stuttered out, face blushing red. "Would you like to go out with me."

I gap and close my mouth like a fish, my own face turning a bit pink. Well this is both expected and unexpected, I kind of guessed it but did not really believe myself. And I really do not know what to say next.

I do not want to hurt this boy's feelings, but something inside me restricted my mouth from saying yes. It is not because of Heeseung, I know for sure. It is much more stronger than the faint infatuation I had over my crush, much deeper.

"Sorry." I find myself saying quietly, even before I can realise the contents of my sentence. "I like someone else."

I breath out again as I reach the foot of the staircase, settling to sit down and comprehend my thoughts.

And you know what the craziest part is, that I am not surprise, not a bit, as if I have already known this for a long time.

Maybe I do. I just concealed it and over time, started to believe that it was erased. When in reality it was still there, hidden, and a tiny part of me knew that all along.

My breath become shaky when I release it, eyes getting blurry with what I assumed to be tears. God! Why am I crying now! I want to slap myself, I really want to. But I know it would only worsen the situation.

I sniff, trying to calm my breathing down, as I quickly get up and start walking. But suddenly, a hand grabs my wrist, and yanks me backwards, resulting in my head to collide with a firm chest.

A familar cologne invades my senses, and I can already tell who it is.
