201 EYE BOOGERS (1/2)
”Hi, I'm so sorry to disturb you but may I ask if I can share this table with you?”
Chan Gu asked as he flashes one bright smile showing his perfect set of white teeth and cute dimples in his cheeks.
His voice sounds so deep and masculine that he could easily still one's heart away. Partnered with his signature killer smile, anyone would find it hard to turn down his request.
Being one of the school belles, Hae Soo was already used to seeing this kind of action on a daily basis. Countless warlocks have already tried to strike up a conversation with her before using lame tactics just like that.
But no matter how immune she was to this kind of approach, she still can't help but fall to Chan Gu's charisma.
Hae Soo could clearly feel the butterflies in her stomach as she looked at Chan Gu who was still standing and was waiting for her response.
”Sure, go ahead. Feel free.”
Hae Soo said simply as she took another sip of her tea. She intentionally averted her gaze to avoid Chan Gu's eyes.
What she did instead is she look outside the shop to observe the busy nightlife in Majika's square.
Since the walls of the shop were made of transparent glass, she could easily see what was happening outside from her where she was sitting.
This is one of the main attractions offered by Whizmead.
Sometimes, one could also find it refreshing to just sat at a corner and observe everything around you quietly while enjoying a cup of warm tea or any beverage of your liking.
Chan Gu's palm was sweating profusely as he waited to Hae Soo's response. He was afraid that the other party will turn him down.
But when he saw how the young lady was reacting, he heaved a sigh of relief. From how he sees it, Hae Soo was more likely to be shy rather than upset, and this is good news for him.
At least, with that being said, he believed that it won't pose him any problem in the future if he will decide to start making friends with her.
”Are you waiting for someone? I'm sorry if I am troubling you...”
Chan Gu said after sometime when he noticed that Hae Soo has no intention of starting a conversation with him.
He doesn't want to make their first meeting to be stale and boring so before the atmosphere could even get more awkward, he deliberately made his move.
”Of course not. I was alone by myself. You can use the table as you please. In any case, I will be taking my leave soon, so you can have it all for yourself.”
”You were leaving already??? Why???”
Before Chan Gu could even stop himself, he already asks out loud what was on his mind. As a result, Hae Soo was startled.
”Err???”
For some reason, Hae Soo feels like Chan Gu was a little off today. She can't help but feel that Chan Gu seems to want her to stay longer, and she finds it a little weird.
After all, they barely knew each other.
Yes, maybe they were familiar with each other's face and apparently, they happen to know each other's name as well.
But aside from that, there is simply nothing between them. They were even not that close.
It was already a surprise itself that they were sharing the same table despite not knowing each other well enough.
Wanting someone to stay longer, isn't it asking a bit too much?
Chan Gu also does not know what exactly had come to his mind when he reacted that way. He was as equally as flabbergasted as Hae Soo was.
”Oh,.. W- wh- what I m- mea- mean is, you don't have to leave in a hurry. If you are uncomfortable sharing the table with me, I - I c-can leave. This is your spot, to begin with.”
Chan Gu was even stuttering when he said that. He feels like the reason why the other party suddenly decided to leave is because of him.
”No, it's not like that. In fact, I would really love to stay with you longer it is just that I really must go now because I still have plans.”
”Really? You want to stay with me longer?”
Chan Gu was obviously surprised when he heard Hae Soo's answer. On the other hand, Hae Soo was blushing all over up unto the tip of her ears when she realized that she had a slip of tongue at that split second.
