Dazzled (Light Series #1)

Chapter 6

Kihyun was busy putting back his camera on its bag when someone tap his shoulders.

"So how was it?" Shownu asked.

"Great!!" Kihyun showed a big smile.

"Whoa, that's a good news." He smiled back.

"Hyung, you should remind me to thank Hyungwon for this."

"What?" Kihyun suddenly noticed Shownu became quiet and faced him totally.

"Any problem?"

"Hmm.. nothing. It's just that.."

He waited for Shownu to continue but he didn't.

"C'mon, never mind that. We have to go back fast, I think it'll rain soon." Shownu went ahead going out of the room.

"What? Rain?" That must be the lamest joke Shownu had in his thoughts. They were out the whole day and the weather had been great until this afternoon so that must be impossible? Or... not?

He went out and indeed it's cloudy.. the cloud seems to be too heavy, it's too dark. A heavy rain might fall any moment.

As the chilly breeze blew, in this wide meadow, seeing the tall trees of the mountains not too far, and looking back at the dark sky, it's kinda creepy and the looks of it is creeping out Kihyun.

He went back thinking that when the weather is great, this place looks like a paradise, a hidden one. But when storm is about to break in, he suddenly wants to go back down to the villa.

He saw Minah.

"Blind Girl, it's going to rain soon. We have to go back now." He said.

"Uh-huh. Yes, we're about to. Are your things ready?" She asked.

He nodded but he slapped his forehead.

"You know... I don't know when will I get used to being with you." He said out of nowhere.

Shownu met them, bringing along their things.

"Why?" Minah asked, curious.

"I keep on nodding and doing other things I am doing with people that can see when I'm with you. I guess.. I should learn how not to do only gestures for your sake." He answered shyly. He's grateful that only Shownu can see him, but also not.

Shownu is about to laugh.

"Bro, why are you like this? I didn't expect a change like this from you." Shownu tapped his shoulder and went ahead.

"Minah, I'll go ahead. Lover boy Kihyun will take care of you, don't worry."

Kihyun rolled his eyes and wanted to throw something at his hyung.

"Ah, Shownu oppa?" Minah asked but only for Kihyun to hear.

"Uh-huh. The swimming team has to fix our things back in the villa." He said.

This time, Minah just nodded. They walked slowly, in silence. While walking, Kihyun is kicking small stones out of Minah's way so that she won't get tripped, so as pushing away twigs and branches out of the way. After a while, Kihyun can already see the small figure of the villa. They're almost there but Kihyun doesn't want to.

He looked up at the dark sky, it'll seem to pour down very soon but they're near anyway.

Kihyun stared at their hands almost bumping to each other while walking. He wants to hold her hand but he's unsure if he should just do it or ask her before doing it.

'What if she says no?' He thought. Suddenly, his chest is pounding. Is he nervous? This will be the first time in his life he felt this way with a girl.
