Sooheon walked a bit far behind Namra. Namra kept glancing at him.

"Why are you walking behind me?"
"Where? What do you mean?" He smiled widely.

Namra squinted her eyes for a second, then kept walking.
Suddenly, Namra stopped walking and turned around at once. Sooheon who was walking without looking bumped into her.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." Sooheon apologized.
"It's my fault tho." Namra said. "I mean, there's plenty of time before class starts."
"That what should we do now?" Sooheon asked.
"Is there anything you want to do?" Namra crossed her arms.

They walked together on the bridge that connects two plots of the school. Of course, a few students who was passing by glanced at them, as he was popular.

All those memories keeps coming back just by looking at her. He chuckled. Namra looked at him to follow the source of the sound.

"What are you thinking?" Namra stopped walking.
"Nothing." He said, still smiling. "Ahh, right.Want to go there?" Pointing his finger at the back of the building.

Namra looked at him, her eyes widened in surprise. "There?"

Namra and Sooheon walked to the back of the school building. There was no one there except them.

"It's quiet." Namra's eyes wandering around.
"I know you don't like noisy places."
"You're right."

"It's a perfect place for shooting a horror scene." Namra said.
"More like a romantic scene." Sooheon blurted out.

They looked at each other awkwardly before turning away.

"Why are we here though?"

When she didn't heard any response, she turned around.

"Where did he go?"

She looked around again, not seeing Sooheon.

"Hey, JI SOOHEON!" Her voice raised a little more than usual.

Namra heard a sound behind her, coming from an alley. She looked through, finding Sooheon who was holding a little Grey stray cat.
She immediately laughed seeing his situation.

Sooheon was scared, his hand trembling that he might drop the kitty.
Namra ran to him to hold the kitty. Then she looked at him.

"What happened?"
"I saw him and...I ended up following him." He pointed at the cat which was peacefully licking his paw.

He sat down. He watched Namra playing with the little cat and how happy she was.

"And, why are you scared then?"
"I don't know, I-I am just scared of them."

Namra laughs. "What do you mean they're scary, come on. They're cute. You just need to get along, look."

Sooheon reached out to his pocket to get something. Namra's eyes shifted to his arm. She quickly grabbed his arm then looked at him with a questioning look.

"How did you get this?" She pointed at the wound. "Did he scratch you?"

"No, i got hurt while catching him." He said. "He's a bit nasty but it's not his fault." He smiled at the cat.

Namra searched her pocket to find a bandage. She put on the bandage on the wound.

"Treat it in the infirmary, okay?"
"It's a small scratch though."
"Small wounds can cause infection. Don't neglect this."

She stood up. She turned to the kitty before she began walking.
"Bye, kitty. I'll bring some snacks next time."

He still stood there. He's amazed, not just that because she's changed, but that she's more comfortable with him.
