"Are you scared of bugs?" Leo asked me as I was moving away from the flies that were flying infront and above me. We were both standing outside of my house. Leo had to go home so I accompanied him to the gate.
"Isn't it obvious?" I bend 90° as I see it coming near me.
"It's on your neck." He pointed to it and laughed softly.
"Help me!!!" I shouted as I felt something moving. "Quick!"
"No." He smiled and just look at me.
"Oh my god baby please!" I shouted as I felt it went in my shirt. I pulled my shirt off and threw it on the floor and stepped backwards.
"Baby...." I heard Leo said and I looked at him.
"What?"
"You just called me baby. It's cute."
"You didn't even help me." I rolled my eyes and picked up my shirt. I checked everywhere of the shirt slowly and put it back on.
"Because you look so cute. I didn't know you're scared of bugs." He looked like he was holding in his laughter.
"Just laugh if you want to." I made a bitch face. "But good now if you know. You're not scared of it?"
Leo shook his head. "I'll try to get to know more and more about you until there's nothing for me to know anymore."
"I wanna know everything about you too." I said and caressed his cheek slowly.
Leo grabbed my cheeks and tiptoed slightly, placing a kiss on my forehead. "I'm going."
I smiled and nodded.
"See you tomorrow in school." Leo turned and walked away.
"Taekwoon.." I called him softly.
He freezed for awhile before turning. "Yeah?"
"I love you."
He looked at me and his eyes widened. Looking at him reacting like that, I shall Not expect him to say it back right?
I smiled at him and walk into my house. I have to be honest, I was really hoping he would call me and say it back. But he didn't..... Is it hard? He did it quite fine saying it through a song? Maybe saying it just like that is a different level? It's okay, it's fine.
"He already went back home?" My dad asked when I walked in the living room.
"Yup." I said and sat beside him on the sofa.
"Are you and him doing okay?"
I nodded. "We're fine but...."
"What?"
"I'm quite hurt that he didn't say I love you back to me even though he had reasons. I'm not suppose to be upset about it actually but I just find it hard to control my feelings." I told my dad and sighed.
"If his reasons are reasonable like you said, give him some time. Don't think too much about it but if he's taking too much time, tell him about it. Tell him how you feel, tell him everything. Be honest and open to each other and you'll have a healthy relationship together." He side hugged me and smiled.
"Okay. Thanks dad." I leant my head on his shoulder.

I put on my white pullover together with my jeans and spectacles. I got out of my house and walked to school with my guitar hanged around my body. I saw Ken standing at the usual spot.
"Hey." I said as I walked to him.
"Hi." He wrapped his arms around me and lean against me.
"Where's the rest?"
