Dear Aster,

As soon as I landed, I took a cab to my apartment left my luggage and left with my cycle. Han river. I am riding my bike to the Han river. It was winter and the air was cold. The sun was setting and the birds were heading home.
In 20 minutes I reached, watched the last 7minutes of the sun going down. I am here, I am back, I came back. Seoul. Han. 

<how could I know one day I'll wake up feeling more but I had already reached the shore cuz we're ships in the night night night>
There was the sun setting, I bid my friend farewell with a faint smile. It was getting dark but I didn't want to leave. So, I went to the store and got myself ramen, instant rice and sausages. As I took a bite I realized how hungry I was and I hadn't eaten for the past 20 hours. As I was chomping down every bite within a millisecond a voice came from the back.

"Slow down you might choke"- said a voice from nowhere.

Eh?!

I looked around and a guy with a black cap looked down at me before I could see anything I thought he was a stalker and immediately stood up to make a run, as a result, I choked on my ramen.

*coughing and panicking

"I told you to slow down"- he said. He held out a bottle of water and looked at me. I was still very panicked to even notice his face.

"Sit and calm down", - he commanded.

I immediately sat and drank the water as it helped to wash down the food stuck in my throat.

"I'm sorry I surprised you but you should be eating slowly," he said while looking at me.

"No, I was pigging out heh. I was hungry" I said while I chuckled. 

"You okay now?" He asked.

"Ye...s....s"

I saw his face for the first time as the light from the store flashed on his face. Handsome and kind. A smile that makes my heart skip a beat, maybe stop entirely.  He's wasn't smiling. This deep voice of his intimidates me to a whole another level.  and I said;

"I should head home now. It's pretty late." I said.

He said, "It's just 6:30" with a questioning voice.

"I kinda had a long day, landed here just a few hours ago". I said with my voice shaking.

He asked, "And you came here just as soon as you landed?"

"Um, kinda...BYE!"

I ran. I just ran as fast as I could.

(26minutes later)

*panting

I reached home but I couldn't breathe and the jet lag got me. Throwing myself in bed I immediately got a shut-eye.


(9:00 am, Sunday)


The sun came to say hi. My eyes opened with the brightness literally illuminating my room but the cold gave me chills. What a beautiful day and...

I FORGOT MY BIKE LAST NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
