I walked around across the university campus while checking what classes I might have next.

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

A smile crept onto the corner of my pink soft lips as I walked towards the gates about to leave feeling excited to go home until I felt my hands onto a hard rock surface, while my face was onto a hard-broad chest.

I blinked repeatedly, not knowing what to do.

Do I step away and apologies a million of times or-

"Are you okay Miss?" The figure looked down at my head, poking my shoulder waiting for a reply.

"U-uh sorry!" I backed away from the human that is in front of me and getting a little glimpse of his body, as I was too embarrassed to look at him in the eyes.

He was wearing black joggers that had a white box with the number 3 inside on the side of his pants and a loose fitting long sleeved white hoodie that covered the top of his body.

The person kneeled down slightly while tilting his head to the side to get a proper look at my face that was staring intensely at the floor.

"Uh, Miss?" He sounded concern than before as his voice sounded worried as if I was dead.

I blushed slightly and jumped back a little. He was attractive and looked very young and pure.

"Uh sorry!" I answered and held my hands together shyly.

He chuckled softly and brushed his hair back smoothly with his fingertips gently.

H-how does someone do that so effortlessly?!

"I remember I was like this when I was younger..." He sighed as patted my head and ran off. While saying his farewell to me.

I looked up and shook my head furiously. "Geez. Why are some people blessed with beauty like that?"

I walked the opposite direction of where the guy ran off.

I felt my stomach growl, looking down at it. I examined if there were any food places around that I can go to.

I noticed a store that was only a couple meters away from where I was standing. I quickly hobbled across the street and entered the franchise. The smell of food hit me in the face.

I ordered enough food that I wanted and sat down until my number was called.

~Couple minutes later~

After getting my food, I strolled home as soon as the sky started to turn dark.

I wanted to get home quick enough as it's not usually safe when it gets later at night. If Raeyoen was with me or that guy...

He came to my mind and I stopped in the middle of the pathway.

Someone that I met only once in my life, that I could be so curious to see again. He didn't really tell me much about himself as he didn't explain more in detail what he meant by "You don't know who I am?"

It kept playing through my brain. He seemed like any other guy, a normal guy basically.

Someone placed their palms on my upper joints that were connected from my neck.

"Funny thing seeing you here, my dear!" An elderly voice tittered behind me.

I turned around to see my next-door neighbor Ms. Park Ara. She was holding some shopping bags in each hand while giving me a big smile.

"Good evening, Ms. Park Ara!" I lowered my head slightly as I felt her hand on top of my head.

"No need for that, my dear." She took her hand off, beginning to walk in the same direction as I. "Come on, it's better to walk together than by ourselves!"

I nodded and hobbled behind her, as I stared at her shopping bags. I bite my lip, while slowly reaching for her shopping bags.

"Let me help you!" I insisted to help her with her bags since I didn't want her to be tired.

She gave a little nod and pass her bags to me. I began to carry them while following her home, as we were walking she stopped in front of me and looked up at the sky.

"Oh, Hyun-ae! Look how beautiful the sky looks!" She cried of happiness, clasping her hands together.

"It is very beautiful."

After a couple of minutes, we finally got to our apartment and entered the automatic doors that opened.

We got to her apartment that was next to mine and went in. I placed her shopping bags on her kitchen counter and stretched, feeling my back making a loud crack.

Ms. Park chortled and handed me something in an envelope, that had my name at the front.

She started to unpack her shopping, while I decided to open the envelope. I don't really expect anything from Ms. Park but she didn't mind giving me stuff.

I gasped to see what was in the envelope. She was grinning to herself while she was putting her shopping in the fridge.

"Ms. Park! I-I can't take t-this!" I placed the money on the counter and pushed it towards her.

"No, my dear you should take it." She pushed it back toward me and I simply declined.

"B-but I can't-"

"Nonsense Hyun-ae. I want to help you live that dream as you were my child." She took my arm and placed it into my palm.

I felt so guilty taking money from my neighbor. I walked around the counter and hugged her tightly.

I can't believe she's helping me to get the dream to work as a fashion designer and probably get to work with GUCCI!
