OUTLIER

"Are you hungry?" he asked as they walked together on the side of the road. "Yeah, a bit" she replied still can't believe how she's able to hold proper conversations with the man beside her after all their previous encounters was her throwing off snacks and shouting at him.

Truly, she knew how wrong of her to judge him so quickly.

"Sorry" she muttered out of blue.

"You don't have to be sorry. It's normal for a human body to be a hungry after a certain period of time" he spat not knowing the real reason of her apology. She smiled and just let it be.

They reached a restaurant near a hospital which Namjoon needed to go after their dinner. "Why do you need to go to a hospital? Were you injured from your job at the cafe?" she asked as they sat on a table waiting for a waiter.

"No" he chuckled, "Besides it's not my job anymore. I got fired remember?" he said that made her chuckle. "I still can't believe the prodigy is actually clumsy" she uttered. "Stop that" he said. "Stop what?" she asked. "Stop calling me prodigy" he replied. Just then she realized how wrong of her to call him that, was it because of how almost everyone called him a prodigy boy? she thought.

"Just call me Namjoon since it's my name" he said breaking Jihyun's deeper thoughts. "If so, then call me by my name too. It's Jihyun" she smiled. "Okay then" he agreed. "You're a Min right? Your family name is Min?" he asked that made her frown. She didn't really wanna remember how she's a member of that family and she didn't wanna talk about it.

Sensing this, Namjoon shifted the topic again as their food arrived. And with that their dinner turned to something fun again at how they bickered with each other. Smart remarks here and there.

"I need to get going now. The hospital is nearby so I'll just walk, as for you I called my butler to take you home. Just wait for him in here since he's on his way" he said as he stood up and wave. Jihyun could only wave back and mutter a thanks as he glady accept it with a smile.

But why was he so eager to leave? He smoothly dodge all my questions too regarding the hospital and his job at the cafe. "I guess I'm not the only one trying to hide things huh" she muttered looking out of the windows. The butler hasn't arrived and Namjoon's just left.

She smiled, Just then she thought of something she shouldn't do but she really wanted to know more about him. So she stood up and reach for the door.
