When I Grow Up (Seventeen Jeonghan x CLC Seunghee)

Twenty Three: When The Past Becomes Known

>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<

Continuation of Flashback
(Six months ago)

After the wushu boy's air-defying stunt, the security guards have arrived and taken the hooded guy into custody. People who saw the feat are clapping their hands admiring the boy's courage, who is now bowing shyly at them with the bag on his hands. Seunghee stands nearby still amazed of the incident after being interrogated by the guards of what really occurred.

The boy, who looks somewhat Chinese, approaches Seunghee in style with a straight face, handing over the bag he just retrieved. She has a clear view of him now. He's medium built but has toned muscles. And to top it all, he's really good-looking.

"Here's your bag miss," he says coolly.

Seunghee takes it from him saying, "Thank you," and her curiosity takes over her. "How did you do that? That was amazing! Do you practice kungfu or any martial arts? That was awesome! I thought I'd see something like that only in movies."

"It's actually wushu," he replies and smiles at her eager face. "What's you name miss?"

"Okay... It's Seunghee. Oh Seunghee."

She flashes her beautiful smile at him and that moment, something in him clicks and he can't take his eyes off her.

"What's yours?"

"I'm Wen Junhui. You can call me Jun."

"Well Jun-shi, for helping me get my bag back, let me treat you lunch, how about that?"

"Sure. I won't say no to that."

From there, she treats him lunch and acquires a little chit-chat. Somehow, Seunghee feels at home with him. It's their first meeting, but she feels light being with him. Maybe because he saved her bag and she can't thank him enough for that.

For him, it's love at first sight. Jun can't explain it but as he spends time with her, he's drawn more and more to her charms.

And it so happens that they're attending the same university. That way, he slowly crawls his way closer to her day by day.

>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<

It's been a month since the incident and Jun has become Seunghee's friend in that time frame. He will show up everytime he's free. He won't waste a moment not seeing her. He will pester on her about things, simple but necessary things. Seunghee doesn't mind though. He's fun to be with and she really enjoys his company. He reminds her of someone she used to take care of in her younger days. But he's more childish and she just can't ignore him.

"Seunghee noona!" Jun calls onto her upon seeing her at the dean's office. He's gone to the point of calling her noona too.

Seunghee smiles at him but reprimands him, "Can you stop shouting my name? I don't want everyone to know it you know."

He scratches the back of his head apologizing, "I'm sorry, I just love saying your name. Can I take you home today?"

"Excuse me?"

"I mean can I walk you home? Or take a ride with you home? I mean..." he's finding it hard to explain because she's taking a 30-minute ride on the subway station since her house is a little far from the campus.

But she understands where he's aiming at, "Okay, I get it. But why though?"

"I just have lots of free time today. And I want to explore Korea you know."
