#12 Crazy Feelings

Wonwoo's POV:

The morning came and I found myself in front of Mina's door. I stared at it for too long, to the point that I encountered each of its details and textures.

"Sorry! I spent too much time in choosing what to wear." I bolted when the door abruptly opened as she popped on my sight.

"It's fine. Let's just go before Mrs. Caden will mark me late." She nodded and followed me until we reached the elevator. As we both entered the small cornered area, the atmosphere became awkward. I can't point out what's wrong. The tension is suddenly rising.

"So uhm... Where's your fiancée?" Her lips pursed and her eyes roamed around the confined thing. I presume she doesn't know where to look, regarding of the situation I guess.

"Uh... She'll be away for months, at the meantime. She's busy with her duties in another country. " I replied looking around the elevator likewise.

"Ahhh. Just for the meantime." She mumbled and started to play with her fingers.

"I apologize for not telling you that I have a fiancée." I stated that caused her to stop moving. She immediately looked at me with disagreement.

"No! That's actually fine! I mean, why would I deserve to know right? I'm just a stranger." She laughed and acted like it was nothing. But in her eyes, she's evidently hurt shall I say? Or am I just hallucinating things?

"Mina, you're not a stranger. You're my responsibility now right?" She stopped laughing and switched on a serious mode. I sincerely gazed at her and waited until her eyes are locked with mine.

"S-so, you're saying..."

"I'm saying that you deserve to know everything about me. What's yours are mine and what's mine are yours. I officially gave you the permission to ask anything about me. Aside from Jun, you're a fun person to be with. You're a great friend." She smiled and nodded simultaneously.

"So it means, that you can ask questions about my personal life too?" She pondered.

"Obviously. That would be so unfair if I only gave mine." Out of nowhere, she plastered a cheeky smile as she leans closer towards.

"Eyyy Jeon Wonwoo. Is this a trick just so that you could get to know me better? Are you falling for me?" She teased me as she pokes my chest with her finger.

"Come on, of course no. It's just because we already became close." Maybe, maybe there's a part of me that wants to know her more. It's been a long time since I first met her and I don't know anything about her background except for the information that Jun gave me in the past.

"Hmm, I don't believe you." She crossed her arms and her brows wriggled. She continued to poke fun at me and I don't know how to behave myself.

"Mina, believe me."

"Okay, if you say so." Sarcastically, she replied. Even so, her face never changed as she smiles like she won in a lottery or something.

"Silly." I uttered and pinched her nose gently. The elevator reached the ground floor and I get out of it while she was left speechless.

Mina's POV:

"Eeeeeeiiiii!" I squealed but as soon as the students stared at me with judgemental looks, I zipped my mouth.

"Get your ass back down there sis! You're being scandalous inside the library." Momo unbelievably scolded me and I clearly heard it through my earphones. Her voice became extra loud because of it.

"Who wouldn't squeal when Wonwoo pinched your nose? Dang it! I feel like I can't sleep." I rest my cheeks on the palm of my hands. I was occupied by the scene earlier. Ugh! I'm feeling so much butterflies on my stomach!

"Duh? of course you can't sleep. It's merely lunch time you fool! It's too bright there." She rolled her eyes but still, she can't ruin my mood.

If you're asking where I am, I'm currently staying at the library in Wonwoo's institute. Since his classes will only end before lunch, he told me that I should wait for him and we'll eat lunch together. Afterwards, he'll continue touring me around. How sweet of him!

Me and Momo talked for too long so I decided to end the call since it's barely four am in Korea. That girl needs some deep rest but I appreciate her because she's always the one adjusting her time. I'm starting to feel bored so I decided to get up and stroll around the library. Glancing and glancing, I ended up seating again because I'm not a book person.

The students are slowly disappearing so when they left, I took a chance to sit on the soft couch that was occupied earlier. I was too tired so I didn't think twice of leaning on the sofa as I watched the ceiling above. The lights are too bright, to the point that I start closing my eyes. I'm getting drowsy and soon enough, my thoughts went blank.

I started to feel conscious again when my head fell to the side. I really want to flinch so bad but I'm too sleepy. In addition, I think someone caught my head in the person's shoulders so, I decided to ignore it and sleep again.

"I'll get you back to the apartment if you're too sleepy." Suddenly, I feel like someone splashed a cold ice water to my face. Shoot, it's Wonwoo!

My gaze immediately landed on him. I removed my head from his shoulder and casually smiled.

"No! No! I'm not even sleepy! Who says I'm sleepy? Who? You? Me? The students? The librarian? The books? I'm not even sleeping, I'm just closing my eyes you know?" I uttered some words which produced him a chuckle.

"Yeah right, like you didn't wake up when I tried budging you." My eyes widened.

"Why didn't you try more though? You can shake me from side to side or you can use the books to slam it on my head, after all, they're just living on the shelves." He laughed at my silliness and that my heart thumped out of joy.

"You're really insane." He smiled.

"Yeah, insane for you."
