" Hey miss ! Welcome back !" The worker exclaimed that caught my attention. " Ah hey .. haha . Sorry that i rush you guys just now " I replied.

" No problem miss , I really appreciate what you did there " She added .

" Huh ? " I was dumbfounded.

" You gave the foods to them .. It's been quite a while since they stayed there . I really hoped that they'll get a shelter to stay " She said . I then nodded slowly as i was realising that i had no shelter for tonight too . I'm doomed if i couldn't book any hotel .

" What would you like to order for yourself?" She asked .

" Umm not sure yet . I need to talk to someone first . I'll come back in a min " I hold that up as then i walked to the man earlier .

I stopped as i unfortunately saw his laptop screen at it shows the fireworks that i seen last night . It was exactly the same and i can confirm that because the fireworks are slightly different from the others i seen back then in korea .

He was there all along ? What a coincidence.

" Um sir , I–"

But then i stopped as he gasped in shock . Why do he looked so shock ? Do he hates seeing me ?

" Uh .. about just now . I'm sorry that i was a bit rude . " I exclaimed.

He frozed " Y-You're apologising? It's not even your fault .. It's clearly mine . " He replied.

" But i talked to you so rudely .. I feel bad " I added .

He smiled " It's okay .. for me , you're not rude at all . But instead i'm glad that i met you " He said but then stopped as soon he realised what he just said and then was slightly blushing.

" If only there's anything i could do for you to apologise on what i did . I bet i hit you so hard ... I'm such a bad –"

" I forgive you . You don't have to do anything. Just , thank you sir .. for forgiving me too " I said .

" No ! Can i .. at least treat you breakfast? That would totally be relieving for me . At least i wont be thinking what i did till forever haha" He said .

" Uhh . Okay " I then awkwardly chuckled as he offered a seat infront of him . It's odd because it is my first time eating with a total stranger that hit me before . If father was here , he would totally be frighten seeing i'm eating with someone i clearly don't know . Well , good things happen .. we shouldn't reject it .

" By the way , what's your name ? You seems like a tourist here .. " He asked right after the waiter took my order .

" I'm ... Irene . Just call me irene . And yes i am a tourist. " I replied.

" Ohh .. pretty name . I'm taehyung by the way . I'm from korea but i have stayed in italy for a couple of years now .. but i just arrived at rome yesterday " He said .

" Yesterday? Me too!" I exclaimed happily.

" Are you from korea too ? " He asked . I then nodded " I live at the cas– " I stopped as i just realised that i was going to expose myself .

" I mean . I live in seoul . " I covered that up .

" Ahh. I use to live there too .. but that was years ago " He said as he was munching his foods .

" Why do you move here ? " I asked .

" Because my parents used to live here .. Here in rome . They had a house so i decided to clean it up since it's been a while since i came here .. " He explains.

" What about you ? " He added .

Talking about houses . Maybe it's time for me to let him at least help me finding a hotel or a house to rent ...

" Umm .. It's a little personal. Uhh, Taehyung. Can i have a favour?" I awkwardly asked him .

" Sure , anything!" He replied .

" I really need to find somewhere to stay for tonight. I am staying at this one hotel my friend booked it for me but she only booked a night so i had to find another hotel to stay tonight .. But if it's a house for rent is even better ! Because i'll be staying quiet long .. So it would be really great if you could help me " I exclaimed.

" A hotel ? Sure .. there's plenty types of hotel around here . I can also find you a house for rent but maybe for tonight i'll help you with the hotel " He said .

My heart lightens up " Awh . Thank you so much .. I'm so glad you could help me !" I said happily as if all my worries had fade away while the reality is , I still had to worry .. what if he didn't manage to find one house for rent? I'll suffer.

" Can we exchange phone numbers ? At least it would be easier for me to contact you " He asked .

" You want to exchange numbers ? Like .. you want to exchange our phone numbers ?" I asked as then i tried to open my phone where i put the number card in it .

He then chuckled " No that haha , I mean like i give you my number and you give your number to me so that you know my number and it would be easier for us to contact" He explains and then started to feel weird on how weird i am . I don't even understand that . Pray for irene :')

" Ahh , I'm sorry . I'm a bit like a frog under the rock .. " I chuckled .

" Nahh , it's okay . It's nobody's fault . But now , you dont have to worry because by tonight.. I'll bring you to the hotel " He said .

" Really ? Thank you so much ! You're my life saviour!" I exclaimed .

He let out a small chuckle and looked straight to my eyes with sparkling eyes " Glad that i could help you " He muttered.
.
.
.

I went back to my hotel after i had a little walk around the city . I then called princess joy as i haven't called her since last night and i bet she's still waiting for my call .

" Yah irene ! Finally ! I've been waiting since yeaterday! " She exclaimed as soon she picks up .

I chuckled while i was starching my body , Just woke up from a rest at the bed " Sorry , it's been a little rough this morning " I replied.

" Rough ?? What happen ?? " She replied with a worried tone .

" Umm , i'm not blaming you but you only booked a night for the hotel and not , a month " I exclaimed .

" WHAT ?! I literally booked for a month ! For lord – .. Oh .. right . No wonder it's so cheap " She said .

" Oh lord , I'm so sorry irene ! I never realised that ... My bad , I should check twice before !" She added .

" It's okay joy , you dont have to worry much .. "

" No! It's okay ! I'll book another hotel now!" She said .

" No no! I've met someone that had helped me booking a hotel ! "

" Someone ?"
