Ji Hoo's POV (continued flashback)

I can't believe what she says at first. But I take it in properly. So I lean in attracted. I can feel her breathe and...

A person walks in and Chaerin blushes and pushes me off. I catch myself and sigh. I look up to see my tutor, Mrs. Jane. Thanks a lot for coming in at the right time, Mrs. Jane.

"Mr. Kang?!" She yells helping me up back onto the bed. I thank her and she begins to scold me but looks towards Chaerin.

"M-Mrs. Jane?" Chaerin calls out and they stare.

"Chaerin... Lee?" Mrs. Jane says familiarly.

I look up interested now since our kiss was officially interrupted.

"You two know each other?" I ask.

-

"So during the day, Mrs. Jane is Chaerin's teacher but you come here to tutor me afterschool?" I restate. They both nod.

"So... Why are you here?" Mrs. Jane asks turning her head towards Chaerin. She becomes panicked after thinking about something and her face turns red. I smile in the background while she stammers to explain.

"She was with me when I got sent to the hospital by that group of delinquents. She saved me, but was also injured in the process." I say and Chaerin gives me that 'thank you!' look.

"But why were you laying so close on top of Chaerin on the floor earlier, Mr. Kang? Or could it be..." Mrs. Jane asks with a small smirk. I blush and I look to Chaerin who has also turned to a bright red. But I still manage to find my voice.

"Chaerin was helping me with my leg therapy since I'm giving her piano lessons. But I tripped during leg therapy and fell on top of her." I say honestly. She nods unsatisfied with a natural story.

"Oh, I didn't know Mr. Kang could play piano. And I didn't know you were taking lessons, Miss Chaerin. You're usually up around starting fights in class." Mrs. Jane says facing Chaerin. She opens her mouth to speak but nods embarrassed. I laugh a little despite trying to make her feel less embarrassed.

"Well, today we'll skip the lesson since you must be tired from leg therapy, Mr. Kang. I take my leave now." Mrs. Jane says and I nod. The door closes and there is an awkward silence between the two of us. I look down at the sheets on my bed and Chaerin looks somewhere else while sitting in the stool beside the bed.

I turn to look at her but she also has and we make eye contact. Our thoughts of a kiss between the two of us made us look away in that instance. I slowly turn again after a slight pause but instead I don't meet her eyes.

I met her lips.

I close my eyes and savor it. She kisses me and I kiss back. Her lips are soft and warm. I don't blush at all during the kiss though, it came... naturally. We separate after a few moments. My eyes open and our eyes meet as our lips left. She steps away towards the door.

"I want good piano lessons, okay?" Chaerin says grinning and blushing a little. I smiled.

"Don't worry. They'll be good." I reassured.

"They better be. 'Cause that was my first kiss." She says turning a little red and she leaves closing the door with a smile.

I grin.

Really? Her first kiss?

Because that was my first too.

-

"Ugh, I suck at this!" Chaerin says.

"You're a lot better than when you first started, just be patient!" I say. It had been two weeks and everyday Chaerin came. My leg therapy lessons in addition, progressed like never before. I could stand and take little steps on my own now.
