"Are you sure that's how he said it?" Eun Jung asks as she puts the ramen into the pot while it boils

*flashback*

" I'll be seeing you" He adds as he walks out

I freeze.

The way he said it.

It was like...

Like he said that as an inside joke.

And I was the punchline.

*over*

"Yeah Eun," I say as I pop a piece of kimchi into my mouth as I swing my legs on the counter

"You know how good I am at reading people and that man...He's no good" I complain scratching my head in frustration

"Well maybe you should give him a chance, I mean... was he cute?" She asks, mild curiosity coating her words

I think back to him. He had short, soft-looking dark gray hair and a mild stubble on his face. His smile charismatic and his accent going perfectly with his deep soothing voice. He was tall, at least 6'0 since I had to look up at him and I'm not so short myself. The way he held himself was like he was always the most sophisticated one in the room... Even me just meeting him twice I could see he was well off. 

"...I would say" I start as I jump off the counter and grab some soda from the fridge

"He was definitely tall dark and handsome" I finish, smiling in thought

Eun finishes with the ramen and sets some bowls out on the table

" Then give it a try girl? What could go wrong? It's not like he would eat you if you gave him the time of day ya know?" She smiles

I sit down at the table and grab some kimchi to eat with my ramen as I sulk

"No, I will not." I state. Final.

"If you don't let anyone in. How will you know if they are good or not?" She asks, not looking at me but at her phone.

I think about it.

How will I know?

I've always based people on how I perceive them to be when I first meet them, and I barely give many people the time of day to get to know me.

Maybe just this-

"Fine just this time I'll listen to you. Besides I can contact him" I say dreading those words

"Awesome" she smiles, then realizes what I actually said

"Wait really?" She asks, putting her phone down and putting all of her attention on me

I take a card out of my jacket pocket and place it on the table

-Hannibal Psychiatry: ###-###-####-

She looks up at me

"He's a psychologist?" She asks

"Apparently," I state as I slide the card back into my pocket.

"So, what are you going to do? Call him?" She asks curiously

"Not yet... I think If we do actually meet again..." I think for a moment

"That's a sign that there really is some type of meaning as to why I met him," I say. Finalizing my thoughts

"That didn't really answer my question..." She frowns, raising an eyebrow as she silently asks for more details.

" I know" I smile and start to finally eat my ramen.

"Eat your ramen before it gets cold and soggy," I say nonchalantly

Eun Jung gives me one last look of "please tell me what your thinking" Before she finally gives up with a sigh. And begins to eat her dinner.
