⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Bora looked up from her—admittedly boring—novel, glancing at the man sitting next to her. He looked to be scrolling through something on his phone, one of his hands propped under his chin.
It's the same guy from yesterday! she realized, recognizing him as the nice guy that had kindly asked if he could sit next to her. Is this just a coincidence, or could it be fate...?
The man was extremely attractive, even though half of his face was concealed by a dust mask. And, judging the way in which his legs dangled off the seat and occasionally brushed against hers, Bora could infer that he was tall—really tall.
Being one for superstitions and chance meetings (re-meetings, in this case), Bora squirmed giddily, a cheeky—and creepy—grin forming on her face.
This has to be fate! she deduced. After all, what are the chances that a hot guy like him would ask to sit next to me twice? Also, he decided to take this bus again, despite there being other buses!
Suddenly, said person coughed.
"Sorry," he apologized croakily, the deepness of his voice shocking Bora, "I'm still a bit sick."
Bora blinked slowly, trying to comprehend the fact that he had spoken to her.
Omg omg omg—
"Oh...haha, no, it's okay!" she giggled, blushing something fierce. The man nodded gratefully in response, going back to his phone. Silence befell the pair once again—not that Bora minded. She resumed her examination of the attractive man.
His ears are so cute and pointy... she mused, a giddy smile forming on her lips as she imagined touching such a majestic pair of ears. Ahhh~!
...And that's how the rest of the bus ride went.

[THE THIRD ENCOUNTER]
It's been two days since Bora last used the bus. She had gotten a part-time job at the local library, and her mother became the one to pick her up.
However, today was a Saturday, and she greatly missed her bus buddy, so...
"I can't wait to see my bus buddy again~ ♪" she sang, skipping with much vigor as she made her way to the bus stop. When she passed a store's window display, however, she stopped.
Wa-wa-wait one fat minute!
Backpedaling, Bora turned to face the window display, her eyes catching sight of a poster in the process. Pictured on the ad was a group of nine men, each of them possessing unique features that made them attractive in their own way.
"Ah, it's the EXO and SPAO collaboration!" she exclaimed shrilly, her fingers lovingly tracing over the frontman's chiseled face. He didn't react, of course, his broody, narrowed eyes staring at her photogenically while his arms rested at his hips.
