1. Foreigner

Chanwoo's POV

It is Saturday night and me and the guys had just finished dinner that Yunhyeong had cooked for us. I was just about to ask what we were getting for dessert when Hanbin cut me off.

Hanbin: "Chanwoo, you're the youngest so go get the ice cream! I want chocolate ice cream!"
Me: "c'mon it's 9 o'clock at night!"
Bobby: "Just go real quick, you've done it many times." Junhoe and Jinhwan just looked at me.
Me: "fine."

I hurried out of the apartment since Hanbin can get cranky fast. This is like the hundredth time they've made me get ice cream.

I remember that one time when Hanbin made me run for ice cream and used to boss me and Donghyuk around all the time. Oh how the times haven't changed.

I finally made it down to the store which was a few blocks away from the apartment.

As I entered, I saw this somewhat tall girl who was about 5'5 and had long and pretty hair. She didn't look like she was korean, she was probably a foreigner. I'll admit she was pretty cute. She had water bottles in her hands.

Flashback to an hour ago
Y/n's POV

Y/n's mom: "Y/n can you please go get water bottles for me and aunty!" I'm an adult for chrissakes, can't believe she's still bossing me around.

Y/n: "But it's getting late and I don't know my way around!" Ugh I can't believe she's making me buy things for her this late, plus I have to buy it for someone I don't even know. That's not even my real aunt! Just another one of her snobby friends who put on a fake smile.

Mom: "You'll be fine, don't forget your phone. Call me if something happens."

Y/n: "But-"
Mom: "No buts!"

She pushed me out of the house. Honestly sometimes I think I have anger issues. I don't really like my mom, I listen to her and do whatever.

What she did really made me mad so I decided to walk around and maybe come home late to make her scared.

I didn't feel like looking up directions, so I just walked and waited until I came across a store.

I've never been to such a beautiful place like this before, actually I've never been outside of the U.S. before.

I was born in San Diego, California. I have siblings but I won't get too much into detail about that. I am 22 years old and I am part Lao and part Vietnamese, but grew up speaking English since my parents couldn't speak their native language with each other.

The reason I was in South Korea was because my mom had a childhood friend back from Laos who had just moved here in Seoul.

She said she would pay for our tickets and give us a place to stay. I mean whatever, I had just graduated from college and had nothing else to do, yet again I had no choice.

In college I was required to learn a language, so I chose Hangul. I could understand it very well, but speaking it wasn't so great.

I was walking along a very pretty river and got startled by a snake who walked right in front of me. Stupid snake.

End of flashback

Finally, a store, took me about an hour and now it is 9 o'clock. I hope my mom gets worried about making me go out alone.

As I entered I saw this pretty tall and cute guy who was at the cash register. Idk why but when I'm around cute guys I just get really nervous and stuff, so I tried to hurry past him but he said something.

Clerk: "Hi, my name is Johnny Seo, call me Johnny, if you need anything just ask." His smile was really nice, and his eyes. Wow. And surprisingly his English was really good.

Me: "Thank you" I said quietly. There was also a second clerk but she didn't say anything.

I made my way to the water bottles and grabbed 3. I noticed that a guy came in. He wasn't cute nor ugly, more like adorable.

We made eye contact, he actually looked at me for awhile as if he knew me, whatever I'll just go pay.

Chanwoo's POV

I quickly grabbed the ice cream and went to the counter. As the clerk was ringing up the ice cream, I noticed that I had forgotten my wallet at home! I shouldn't have rushed out of the apartment so quickly.

I noticed that the pretty girl with long hair was next to me and was paying for her things with the clerk named Johnny.

She had a worried look on her face.

I was about to tell the clerk I left my wallet at home, but then the girl next to me cut me off.

Chanwoo: "Looks like I've-"
Girl w/ pretty long hair (y/n): "Don't worry, I'll pay."
She gave the clerk 10 dollars and ran out after looking at her phone. I didn't even have the chance to ask her name.

Y/n's POV

I noticed the guy next me act nervously. Oh he forgot his wallet, I'll just pay for him. As I paid my mom had texted me to hurry up. So I paid and ran.

Back to Chanwoo

I didn't think much about it but I really wanted to know her name and thank her. I entered the apartment and everyone ran towards me for ice cream.

Me: "Thanks for making me buy the ice cream, some girl had to pay for me since I left my wallet at home!"

Hanbin: "So? Girls always try to pay for our things all the time." That's true, girls would always pay for us since we are very popular in school. But that girl didn't seem like she knew me.

Me: "Whatever, I just didn't get a chance to thank her." I walked away and went into my room. I was actually thinking of vlogging for my YouTube channel but nothing came to mind. So I just fell asleep.
