Bit by bit, I could see that he’s approaching. I can’t explain why my heart started to beat fast and so hard that I could hear it at its highest volume. Few more steps and he’ll be in front of me. Just to divert my focus, I decided to grab my phone and play some games but as I unlocked my phone, I heard that the seat in front of me moved. From my sight focusing on my phone, I lifted my head and to my surprise, ‘this crazy man’ wearing a plastic TOP mask sat in front of me without even asking for my permission.
“Does this man know that I know TOP personally?” I told in my mind as I give him an annoyed gaze.
The sound of silence enveloped the whole cafe. I’m waiting for him to talk...
“Kung ayaw mong magasalita, Fine... (If you don’t want to talk, fine...)” I whispered and was about to stand up. Until...
“Hey, where do you think you’re going?” A husky and manly familiar voice registered.
Upon hearing him, I remained on my seat and I felt that my entire body froze on my position. I could already feel my nerves and my heartbeat. My brain can’t formulate of what words I would say as a reply. Instead, I just gave him my innocent yet stunned gaze.
In a few while, he slowly removed his mask. My heart continued to pound so fast and little by little its sound increased where I could hear nothing but my heart and my deep breath. Then, he his familiar voice started to register again.
“I’m so sorry for doing this.” He calmly said.
At this time, I could see his thin and heart shaped lips... Then, his perfectly shaped nose... Then... his whole face... I don’t know if my sight is just playing games on me... I catch a deep breath....
“I’m TOP, who the whole world knows as a rapper, a ‘bad boy’ and an idol. But now, I'm here in front of you. I'm here to tell you that I'm simply Choi Seung Hyun, not an international artist,not your boss but just a man that is deeply in love and asking to be a part your world.” TOP sincerely told me.
After hearing these words, I don’t know why everything got blank. I don’t what to say and what to react but one thing is for sure, I’m SHOCKED, FROZEN, SHORT-BREATHED etc. Even in my wildest dreams, I didn’t expect that a man blessed with everything would be in love to a person like me.
“I know that you’re so much shocked and didn’t expect this to happen... I’m sorry.” He added and grabbed my hand.
His soft hand slowly pulled my hand, signalling me to stand up. Still in shock, I stood up and followed him as he gently held my hand. He brought me outside where his car black sports car was parked. Although, I’m still not in myself, I got bothered why he’s taking me out wearing his real self.
“Don’t worry, Chin. I’ll protect you...” He told me as if he read my mind.
6:30pm...
Well-dressed and wearing the red scarf that Chin gave him, Seung Joon went inside the zoo cafe where few customers started to get inside. With a bouquet of pink roses in his hand, he searched for Chin...
“Excuse me, sir. Are you looking for someone?” the manager asked.
“Yes, have you seen a woman? She’s not a Korean, actually. I told her to wait for me here at 6pm...” Seung Joon politely asked.
“But, Ms. Chin was the only foreigner that came here within this day...”
“Yes, her name is Chin. Did she order anything ‘coz I’ll be the one to pay for it.”
“B—But, that can’t be because, TOP reserved the cafe during that hour---” The manager said.
Down and depressed, Seung Joon went out the cafe. Feeling out of love, he walked on the cold and dimmed side streets. The people who saw him seemed to know his situation and gave him a sympathizing look. His mind was blank and his feet continued to walk him everywhere. He already passed the bus stop. After some time, he got tired of walking and found an empty bench. He sat down and started to reminisce what the manager told him earlier.
**FLASHBACK**
“TOP reserved the cafe awhile ago and it seems that he knows this woman for too long... I didn’t hear their conversation but I saw that she’s very shocked... not too long, they both left together with TOP holding her hand... Hey, you’re the only outsider who got this exclusive news because, it seems that you also know her.” The manager informed him
**END OF FLASHBACK**
Seung Joon sighed. He slowly stood up and left the bouquet of pink roses resting coldly on the bench.
