Chapter 16

You stared at Namjoon blankly after he confessed. You slowly processed the words he said but you couldn't think straight. You wanted to reply to him but the words just didn't come out and all you could do was stand there, looking like a fool.

Namjoon obviously knew that it would confuse you. He was calm and still had a smile on his face.

"It's okay, little kitten. You do not need to return those feelings. I just wanted to let you know how I feel."

You felt bad. It was unfair for him. You knew it but you couldn't come to a conclusion.

"Its late. Let's go home. I'll send you off."

"I..I'll go myself."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. You should get some rest. It's just a few walk back. I can manage that."

He didn't really want to comply with your wishes but he just nodded his head.

"If you say so."

You smiled at him and greeted him goodbye before turning around to head back home.

You needed this time alone. Also, you didn't want him to feel awkward.

You strolled down the road which somehow helped to clear your head. You had your eyes on the ground which caused you to bump into a person accidentally.

You immediately bowed and apologised to that person. You heard him chuckle so you looked up. You had never seen him before.

He had a soft curly light brown hair and beautiful sharp features. His fringe was a bit long that it reaches until his eyes. Gold string of earring tangling by the side and jaw line sharper than knife.

"It's fine."

His voice was surprisingly pretty deep which contradicted his looks. He smiled at you and you ended up blushing a bit.

"Why is a young lady like you out so late at night?"

"Umm I was visiting someone."

He formed an 'o' with his lips which soon became a smile again.

Your eyes dropped onto the bouquet of pretty pink camellias he was holding.

His eyes also followed to where you were looking and giggled. You realised that you were staring at it and you looked away nervously.

He stretched it out to you and you looked at him confused.

"For You."

"Wha-? No no I can't accept it."

"No, dear. It is for you."

He placed it in your hand and walked away. You froze for a bit and realised that he had gone away. You ran after him but as you turned to the corner of the street, he had disappeared.

"Little kitten?"

You turned back and saw Namjoon standing behind you. He walked towards you and looked at the flower and then up at you with his eyebrow raised.

"You haven't gone back yet?"

"Uhh I am heading back," you noticed that he was panting a bit. It seemed like he had ran. "Is something wrong?"

"Yeah you had received flowers by a random stranger in the middle of the night. Who knows what's going to happen next. You might get kidnaped or something."

You blinked your eyes as you had never seen him this worked out before.

He grabbed your hand and pulled you down the street.
