If I Can

Part 5

"Harin? Where are you going?" Harin looked at her mom, who was washing the dishes. She smiled at her and said "On a walk." Her mom nodded and returned the smile with a soft one. Harin could tell she had something to ask. "Could you possibly give that bag of pork chops to our neighbor on your way out?"

Harin pursed her lips and nodding. She didn't say another word as she left her home with the bag.

She bumped into Hamin on her way off their driveway. She snarled looking at him and he just chuckled. "Watch where your going next time." He didn't say sorry, and went inside the house.

Harin walked to the stone princes house, she told her mom she no longer wanted to go there but her mom gave her no choice.

She knocked on the door. "HEY STONE PRINCE OPEN UP!" She yelled.

The door opened and this time he was dressed in sweatpants and a plain black shirt. A pencil behind his ear.

"What?" He said and she rolled her eyes, taking his hand and putting the bag in his hand. He was startled and then said "Don't you live in the other district of the school?"

Harin raised a brow. "Why do you care?" He shrugged, no smile shown on his face.

"It's odd that you come here every few days with food for me." Harin chuckled and crossed her arms. "Why do you think I'm the one giving you that? Do you like it?" He rolled his eyes, with a grim look on his face.

"Whatever puppy. It's late go home." He said shutting the door and Harin had her mouth open at his rudeness.

Harin then walked away from his house onto the sidewalk. She didn't keep walking though, instead she looked up at the dark sky and realized how cold the night actually was.

She was only in a baggy shirt and was fighting with herself whether to go back in to get a sweater or not but she thought against it and kept walking.

She then stopped walking, feeling a warm hoodie sling onto her arm.

The stone prince closed the door, slapping himself. He put the food down and peeked from the window to see if she was still there.

Surprisingly for him, she was but it was weird because she wasn't a timid person and seemed to be stuck in her thoughts not walking further away from his home.

He felt the breeze from the window and threw the pencil off his ear. He grabbed a sweater and put it on. Quickly grabbing another one and running out the door, locking it.

He quickened in pace when he noticed she began to look forward to walk. On instinct to make her stop he slung the hoodie onto her arm.

"What are you doing?" He didn't show any signs of anything so she just held the hoodie in her hands.

In annoyance he said in a harsh voice "Put the hoodie on." She looked at him but he didn't look back so she just listened.

"Where are you going?" He asked and she shrugged. "Why are you out?" He also shrugged and she began to walk, him following her.

Walking side by side he asked curiously "I haven't seen you around school and finals are coming. What happened?"

She chuckled bitterly. "Why do you think you have it easy this year? I'm going to get a higher score than you this year!" She yelled at him and he shrugged. "I don't know about that." He sped past her.

"Hey wait up!"

They had ended up at a bench by the convenience store. Sitting beside each other, sipping on their own drinks. Stone prince was spacing out while she just watched him sit there and look good like other students had said.

"Hey Stone Prince!!" She said after a few minutes. He didn't answer and she called him out a couple more times. "Stone prince?" She said, standing up and walking over to see his face. That's when she noticed him holding the empty can in his hand and his eyes were closed.

She smiled. "If you weren't so rude, maybe I would like you." She mumbled, looking at him. Snapping out of it, she put her mouth close to his ear and whispered.

"Han Kiwon...wake up.." He woke up, dropping the empty can on the floor. He turned his head, face facing hers. He was stuck and she laughed, pulling her face away from his.

"You should see how red your face is."
She chuckled.
