36 If you add interest, its nineteen kisses now (1/2)
Seo Tae Il is too hurt and angry. He doesn't feel like seeing her, but the thought of never seeing her also bothers her too much. He turns around the car and returns the park. He sees her sitting back on the swing. He can't see her face because her head is hung low.
If you don't like me, why are you still crying now?
He stands in front of her. ”Why are you crying now?”
”Why are you back?” She looks up at him. He pulls her into his embrace and looks into her eyes. ”If you don't like me, why are you crying now?”
”I am not crying because of you.” She tries to push him away, but he holds her tightly in her embrace. ”Let me go now.”
He doesn't speak. He looks at her intensely. Like he can see through her. She doesn't meet his eyes. Why is he looking at her like this? He is making her nervous. Is he the same Tae Il?
”You owe me nine more kisses.” He lifts her chin to make her meet his eyes. ”If you add interest, it's nineteen kisses now.”
What?
”Do you think that you can get away after taking advantage of my visuals?” He asks her, amused by her startled reaction. ”It's sexual harassment, isn't? Whether you had your memories or not, why should I care? My body has been 'tainted' by a shameless girl.”
”Interest?” Ji Won has trouble digesting his words.
”You kissed me ten times. The interest is ten more kisses. The total is twenty kisses. I have already kissed you once. So, it's nineteen kisses now.” He embraces her tighter. ”It's simple mathematics.”
”Simple mathematics, my foot!” She looks at him with disbelief. ”If you want nineteen kisses or nine kisses, why don't you do it now?”
He rolls his eyes. He replies sullenly, ”I will do it when I want to do it.”
”This...” She feels like her body is heating up. He leans closer to her. She can feel her heartbeat going haywire.
”Your heartbeat...I can feel it.” She hears him say. He lets go of her with a smile.
”Stop it.” She scowls at him. ”I don't want to see you anymore.”
”It doesn't work like that.” He crosses his arms. ”You owe me nineteen kisses. I will take each kiss whenever I want. You better be ready.”
”You have lost your mind.” She cracks her knuckles.
”If you use violence, I will call the cops.” He takes her arm. ”Let's go home. Your sister is worried about you.”
