I slowly opened my eyes as the sunlight began to stream across my face. I groaned as I sat up slowly feeling the constant pounding in my head. I looked around as I tried to remember the events that had occurred the night before. A piece of paper on my nightstand caught my eye, and I reached over and grasped it bringing it closer to my blurred eyesight to read.

Good Morning Mi Sun,

I am very sorry for the events that happened last night. I did not mean for any of it to happen. I should have been more cautious of my surroundings. I really hope that you aren't hurt. If you need anything please feel free to call out for me. Don't really have a phone, but don't worry I will hear you. I found some aspirin in your cabinet in the bathroom. Make sure to take the medicine and don't strain yourself to much today.

I looked over to see two aspirin tablets sitting on my nightstand along with a glass of water. I reached out and popped the tablets into my mouth and drowned them down with the water. I sighed as I got out of bed. My entire body felt sluggish, but at least the throbbing in my head was going away. I shuffled my way out of my room and toward the kitchen. I took note of the slight mess of clothes thrown everywhere and concluded that Min Jee came home from the party with a guest. I sighed as I stepped around the clothing and headed toward the kitchen. I grabbed a bowl and spoon and my favorite cereal. I sat down at the table and poured the cereal into the bowl as I heard the commotion coming from my roommates' room.

"Shh. You have to be quiet," giggled Min Jee in a slight whisper. I shook my head and stuffed a spoonful of the cereal into my mouth. The sound of shuffling feet neared, and I looked up to see Min Jee entering the kitchen and a tall man entering behind her.

"Oh Mi Sun, your awake," said Min Jee with surprise in her voice. I merely nodded and stuffed another spoonful of cereal into your mouth. Min Jee chuckled and turned to her guest.

"Mi Sun, this is Sang Min. We met at the party last night." Sang Min smiled as he stepped closer to the table and held out his hand.

"It's nice to meet you Mi Sun," he said with a small smile. I returned the smile and reached out and touched his hand. As soon as his hand connected with mine, a sharp stinging sensation went through my arm. Sung Min rose his eyebrow as he stared at me but remained silent. I quickly released his hand and looked down toward my cereal bowl.

"Well we are heading out. Can you go grocery shopping?" All I could muster was a nod as I continued to stare down at the bowl. I could still feel Sung Min's eyes on me.

"See you later," said Min Jee. They left the kitchen and as soon as the sound of the front door closing resonated throughout the apartment, I sighed in relief. I sat there for a minute collecting my thoughts. I slowly stood and gathered the bowl and spoon and gently placed the items into the sink.

I slowly made my way to my room and began changing into more proper clothes to go grocery shopping. The journal caught my eye as I pulled my sweatshirt on over my head. I picked up the journal and debated whether or not to open it. I honestly didn't want another stranger showing up at my door unexpectedly again. I chose against it and stuffed it into the drawer of my bedside table.

Grabbing my wallet and slipping on my shoes, I left the safety of my apartment. I quickly walked down the street with my head bowed as I weaved between people. I ducked into the market and grabbed a small basket. I walked along the aisles staring up at the different products. I wasn't paying much attention and accidently bumped into someone.

"Sorry," I murmured as I looked up toward the person. I was slightly taken aback by how handsome the guy was. He was wearing head to toe black and the only color on him was his red tie. He smiled down at me as he brushed his hair out of his eyes.

"It's okay," he said with a deep soothing voice. For some reason I was drawn in by not just his voice, but his steel Grey eyes. He smirked as he turned and walked away and disappeared down another aisle. I shook my head and continued with my shopping.

I approached the check out lane and low and behold I am standing behind the guy from earlier. He turned his head and smiled at me.

"Hey again," he said with a slight chuckle. I smiled at him and giggled.

"Hey."

He held out his hand, "I'm Yong Sun. What's your name?"

I was about to reach out to shake his hand when someone grabbed my wrist and brought me closer to them.

"There you are babe," said a familiar voice. I looked up to see Kai standing there glaring at the man.

"What?"
