Part one

The sun was shining so brightly on street Jung ho that the people walking on it had to slit their eyes. Suzy, lonely as ever kept to herself not giving much space to anyone. As a part of her daily routine, she visited the library and was returning home with a pile of books in her hands. Semester was about to get over and she had a lot of papers to complete before she graduated. She could barely see the ground in front of her as the pile of books covered her face. She managed to find her way and slowly got down the stairs; just when, a strong gust of wind blew pushing some of her hair into her eyes and she dropped the books on the ground. Clumsily trying to pick them up, she knelt down and lifted a book just when another hand held it. She raised her head to the owner, and saw a handsome man as pale as ice with big, bright eyes squatting in front of her. He picked up all the books and looked at her.

"Are you okay?" he asked and stood like a fallen angel in front of her while stretching out his hand for her

"Are you okay?" he asked and stood like a fallen angel in front of her while stretching out his hand for her.

'Wha...who the hell is this handsome guy and what's with his eye contact!' she wondered.

She shook her head slightly and immediately looked down and replied "I am fine, thanks". Unable to resist seeing him again, she lifted her gaze up once again and stared at him.

He returned her look with a huge charming smile that now employed two cute dimples with sparkling eyes. He then turned back and slowly walked away. She kept watching him until he went out of sight, near the turning of the street. He stood out as the only head higher than other people in the crowd.

She kept wondering about him even after coming back home.

I've never seen him here before, is he a tourist, a foreigner? Nah! He looked like a Korean to me...Or maybe, newly moved to our area? ...FILMSTAR!??

Her eyes brightened with just the thought of it.

But she realized about semesters, quickly shook her head, arranged her books in the shelf and began to immerse herself into her textbook. A while later (at least it felt like it was a while), she found herself sleeping on the open book making the pages wet with her drool. Drowsily she looked at the clock and realised she had slept away and only 40 minutes were left for her exam.

Panicked, she ran towards the bathroom with her brush and uniform. In not less than 20 minutes she came out hastily dressed. Hurriedly she packed up all the things in her bag and left for college.

Half running and half jogging, skipping two stairs at a time, she came to the entrance of her classroom and panted,

"I am so sorry sir, I'm late" she apologized lifting her head slowly and almost froze hearing the person standing there.

"Is this the time you arrive for an exam?", asked the invigilator, but something about him seemed familiar.

'Uuuhhh!! The hot guy!'

She remembered that it was the man she met on the street yesterday while returning from library. An awkward silence followed his question.

"Uh...mm...I..I'm...I'm sorry..I" she stammered.

"Its okay" , he said "Now hurry to your desk, I will not grant you extra time. You've got to finish the paper within the given time, do you understand ?"

Still hesitant to raise her head up, she silently nodded and mumbled a "yes" While she walked to her desk. It took her sometime to come out of the shock. Her heart was beating so fast that someone could run a turbine to generate current with its power. She wrote as fast as she could to keep up with the time. The final bell rang and her hand was already shivering with pain.

"Last ten minutes", he announced and she looked at him to find that he was staring back at her. Her heart skipped a beat again and immediately she dug herself into the paper trying to avoid eye contact.

After the last bell rang the students walked in a line to submit their papers and Suzy was the last one to finish since she started later. Seemed like he was waiting for her turn to come in the line because as soon as she stepped forward he spoke, "Wasn't it you yesterday?"

She gave him a puzzled expression.

"It was you, right?" he repeated "Near the library, the cute girl who dropped the books"

Cute!!?? Me?? Is his eyesight alright? Then why am I blushing? Oh dear if someone sees I'm dead. Luckily all left and I'm the last one.

There was a huge gap of awkward silence. He snapped her out of thoughts when he cleared his throat loudly.

"Uh...yeah. I was in a hurry back then" she replied blushing with an awkward grin. This was the first time she looked him up that close. He shined like the sun and looked angelic with that smile. Just then the door of the classroom opened and a man with a dark coat called, "Mr Lee Hongbin?, the dean wants to have a word with you"

'Hongbin?? So, is that his name?', Suzy thought and sighed, 'Ah! handsome people have handsome names too'

"Yes, I'll be there in 2 mins", Hongbin nodded. He turned and looked at her, smiled brightly and left without another word.
'There it goes again, ah! you should stop beating so hard. You can't beat so much everytime he smiles, I'll end up getting a heart attack someday then' she banged her chest and calmed her herself down.

"Excuse me sir?" Hongbin asked for permission to enter the room labelled Dean & Superintendent.

"Ah! Mr.hongbin, please come in. I wanted to give you an important message dropped by your friend just now", the dean answered while he gestured him to take a seat.

"Friend??" bin thought, "who is it, sir?" he asked in curiosity as he sat down.

"Well, that is not what is important Mr

"Well, that is not what is important Mr.Hongbin, what is important is the piece of information I ought to give you" dean replied.

Hongbin was looking anxiously at the dean who, casually lifted the cup of tea and took a sip from it. He began ,"Mr.Hongbin seems like you are wanted back by your team. You have to pack up soon and leave to Seoul"

"What? Seoul? But I'm here on an official break. Why can't they use a substitute?" Hongbin exclaimed.

"Is the job of yours that easy to be taken by a substitute Mr Hongbin?" dean continued "Listen officer Lee, I know that you are here for a break but you can't back out when your needed"

Hongbin took a moment of silence and let out a deep sigh. He answered "Fine Sir. I understand that. I'll leave tonight itself, thank you for letting me teach here as a guest lecturer" and smiled. He stood up bowed at the dean and walked briskly out of the room still a thousand questions running his brain.
