"What's the title of this song? I forgot." Airah asked when he played EXO's Peter Pan. Instead of answering he started to sing along with it "I remember! Hahahaha! Peter Pan!"

"I'm seriously thinking you're a fan now." he joked "I think I am too. They have this thing they call bias-"

"Who?" he quickly asked "I don't know, I can't pick." she answered, they are all fair in her eyes, all are talented! All have visuals! No wonder why fans are head over heels for them, now she can get them "You should pick me! I am your favorite sheep." Yi Xing sounded like a kid to her that made her chuckle "I can't choose, I am sorry." she said "No... no. That can't be." Yi Xing whispered.

Yi Xing's mind was full of thoughts on how can he make him her bias "Hey, don't you think we should buy some food? I want some fries." Airah noticed how serious his face was so she called his name "What do I need to do so I can be your bias?" Airah got shocked with his question, Yi Xing stopped the car "Tell me. I'll do it."

Then she laughed "Hey, what's so funny? I am serious here you see?"

"Yi Xing, there's nothing you need to do. You're the most special sheep to me. Okay?" Yi Xing's eyes slowly sparkle in happiness "I am special?" he asked.

"Yes, you are. Now let's go find some food, I am still hungry. I didn't eat well this morning."

"Aye!"

Yi Xing wore his face mask and shades before getting their order in the drive thru "Oh my, I'm sorry..." Airah told him when she realized he can't be seen "It's okay, don't mind me. Here's your fries!"

"H-Hey. Are you sure we're going here?" Airah asked when Yi Xing stopped in front of a mall "I am. We should buy some groceries before going to my house, I forgot to ask Manager Woo to buy." Airah grabbed his shoulder "People might see you, they might see me with you, people will gossip about this." he only smiled and take her hand on his "Don't worry, the store just opened, there will only be few people around."

Yi Xing was pushing the cart as she get what he needs in his house "Let's get some soda?" he nodded "Hey, you're so busy with your phone." she said choosing what soda she likes to drink, Yi Xing showed her his phone "You... you creep!" Yi Xing was busy taking candid shots of her! "Again, I am too handsome to be a creep, Airah. Too and way way handsome to be one."

"Then why are you doing that?" she asked "I'm keeping memories, this is our first time to buy groceries together." she felt something kick inside her, how can Yi Xing be so sentimental? He's nice, soft, thoughtful... ideal. She thought but quickly shrugged it off of her mind, she can't be dreaming just because he's like this to her "Yi Xing, I don't know what you're thinking right now... but thank you. Thank you for making me feel special." with the awkwardness rising in her, she walked to the next stall leaving Yi Xing.

"Oh damn, will you stop beating fast?" he asked his heart "She might hear you." he said as if as his heart is talking to him. Yi Xing followed her with a huge smile in his face, thinking how will his plan work. A small hope is building inside him, he can feel it. He can feel that Airah's is slowly developing feelings for him and it's something he should work really hard for. He can't let what Baekhyun, Jongdae and Xiumin said happen to him!

"Do you want some apple juice for later?" he asked her "Now that you've said it I feel like I'm craving for apple."

Yi Xing checked his Messenger and he saw Kylla's message.

Kylla Lee
Done translating! Tell me when I will see Kyungsoo please? 😍

ZYX
Soon. They'll be visiting me here.

They were in the middle of their talk when someone called his number "Zhang Yi Xing speaking." he said "Hi, Yi Xing. Is Airah with you? She's not answering her phone." he looked at Airah and handed his phone to her.

"Ma? Why?" she asked "Hey, sweetie, we forgot to tell you we are going in an out of town trip tomorrow with your father's colleagues. Am I disturbing anything?" she chuckled "Nothing, Ma. We're just talking about how his trip in South Korea went."

"Okay okay, be home early you still need to prepare your clothes for our trip." she bid her goodbye to her mom "Please send her home safely." Airah's mother told Yi Xing "I will, Auntie. That's for sure."

As much as he wanted to tell Airah now about his feelings, he can't. He knows she needs to go home. What a bad timing. He said to himself.

"I'm really sorry that I need to go home now, Yi Xing. I wish I could stay longer so we can talk but yeah..." Yi Xing smiled and told her it's okay "We can continue next time! You know I'll always find time for you, Airah."

He told her to wait a little to get his present for her he bought from South Korea "That's a huge box." she said "It is. I made sure I bought everything." Airah opened the box and she saw EXO albums inside it "Woah!" she happily checked all the albums "Thank you! I was planning to buy them, so thank you!"

"Here's the real gift." Airah took the small box from her, it contains a flashdrive and a key "The flashdrive contains my trip in South Korea, I took videos and compiled them so you can watch it. Just don't laugh at me. And the key... well, you'll know its purpose soon." she genuinely smiled at Yi Xing "I'll keep all of these. Thank you so much, Yi Xing."

"You're very much welcome."

"So uhm, when are you coming home?" Yi Xing asked when he parked his car in front of their house "It's just a couple of days trip. I'll bring something for you too!" she said "Thanks, just be back safe and that's enough for me." Airah's heart started to beat fast again as he noticed the sincerity in his eyes, only Yi Xing can make her feel like this. It's only him who can make her heart flutter and her cheeks burn. But she's afraid of what's growing inside her, she might get hurt and she doesn't want that.

"Thanks." she said when Yi Xing opened the door and helped her carry the box he gave to her. She pressed the door bell, Yi Xing put the box down "I'll see you then." he said "Y-Yeah."

"Ahm, Airah..." she only gave him a stare "C-Can I hug you?" her eyes widened, Yi Xing slowly opened his arms to welcome her.

Oh gosh, stop beating so fast! She told her heart but it won't listen "Y-Yes?" though it was awkward, Yi Xing moved closer to encircle his arms around him. Airah's arms went up to hug him back "I missed you. I really missed you." Yi Xing whispered to her. She gasped when she felt his lips in his head "I was going to tell you something but I guess today was a bad timing. I guess I'll just wait for you to comeback."

Airah pushed him away when the door opened "Okay... I'll act like I saw nothing, don't worry about me guys!" Kylla ran inside their house, she took the box "B-Bye!" without looking back she went inside leaving Yi Xing.

"Damn, Yi Xing. Don't you know how to take things slow?" he slapped his face.
