"That was horrible." She whispered, as they followed the line to leave the cinema.

"Tell me about it." He chuckled. Glancing at his watch, it was almost 1 PM.

"Bin, let's go get some lunch." She tugged on his sleeve, pointing to a nearby fast food chain.

"Of course! M-"

"My treat." She cut him off, a smile on her face.

"Eh? Why? Yeonji-ah, I'll pay!"

She shook her head. "Either I pay, or we don't eat, and I know just how much you love food."

"...."

"...."

"...."

"Gah, fine." He pouted.

Yeonji found a table for them, while Moonbin went and ordered the food. When he came back, he found her looking down at her feet, a frustrated pout on her face.

"Yeonji-ah?" He called, setting the tray on the table as he sat across from her. "Is everything alright?"

"Oh, yeah. Everything's fine." She reassured. "Wait, I thought I said I'd pay?"

"Haha, well....." He shrugged. Digging through her bag, she took her wallet and gave him money. He shook his head.

"No, Yeonji-ah! I can't accept that. Also, its more than the money I paid for this meal. A lot more."

"Moon Bin--"

Before she could even finish her sentence, Moon Bin was already eating.

"Yeonji-ah, it's still 2:30, do you want to take a walk? I heard it's really good exercise!"

"Actually..." She looked away. "Can we just go home?"

"W-What?" Panic hit him. He didn't know if he messed up. Was it back at the cafe? Or maybe she caught him eat her popcorn at the movies? Did he do anything wrong?

"Don't misunderstand! Today was really fun, but, well..." She didn't want to tell him.

"What's wrong, Yeonji-ah?"

"Wearing heels are so tiring." She mumbled. His eyes widened, letting out a small sigh of relief.

"Is that all?"

"Really? That's all you can say?" She grumbled. "If you were me, your feet would hurt like hell too."

"Well, since you paid for lunch, I know a way to pay you back!"

"Really?" She asked, surprised. She didn't need him to pay back, but she was curious of what he had to say.

"A piggyback ride! I'll give you a piggyback ride!"

"W-W-What?! Are you crazy?"

"Nope! Really, Yeonji-ah!" He crouched down and had his back face her. "Get on, you still have to get home."

Taking a deep breath, Yeonji knew she couldn't convince him to just let her walk instead. As she wrapped her arms around his neck, she felt herself warm up.

"I swear, sometimes you're impossible." She faintly smiled.

"Don't worry! I'll go with you to the train station, too!"
