you took a quick photo of your somewhat pleasantly looking food─ it was beyond normal at this point for cameras to eat first instead of people, that was basically a rule in this generation.
you friend sighed beside you, tummy growling like a starving wolf. She grabbed her fork unpatiently looking at you, like one more minute and she'll devoured you instead.
"are you done yet? I feel like I'm gonna deflate soon" your friend dramatically slouched on your shoulders as she said
"one sec....and......done!" you said as the last 'clicked' shot by your Retro 90's Digital Compact Camera Digicam
"urgh....finally...." was all your friend said before she dived right in to the food.
You were still busy checking the photos when you noticed one particular pic.
a guy in blue hoodie, standing at the corner, headphones on.
his side profile is beyond the word good, like he was some model or something.
okay...South Korea obviously is packed with alot of good looking dudes, but him? he looked waaay different than any guy you seen before when you set foot here,
you were busy staring at that pic when your friend peeked in,
"yo, who's that?" she said while still munching on her food.
"don't know..." you whispered, looking up at his direction, "but he looks super good"
"go get his insta or smth then" she shrugged
"what─no, are you crazy?" you hit her shoulder lightly, there's no way your gonna go up to some random stranger and ask for their socials
"I mean, we're literally in another country, there's no harm in trying"
"Yea but nah.." you finally set your camera down, looking at him one last time before finally eating your food.
the subway was beyond crowded.
you and your friend was basically sandwich between thousands of people. going to the station during work hours was not a great idea at all.
in the midst of trying to find your next station, you unexpectedly bumped into someone
"ah─sorry" you apologised quickly before rushing towards the station you were heading, afraid of missing the train.
upon finally reaching your station, you felt relieved for a second before it hits you.
where did you put your ticket? shit, did you lost it?
a wave of panic washes all over you, you scramble around your pockets and bag, in hopes that the ticket was in one of them. you panic even harder when it wasn't.
nice, this might be the worst moment of your life or atleast top 5
just then, a loud voice can be heard from behind, passerby turning towards the voice as it got closer to you.
huh? you turned around, and a guy was runing towards your direction
"your ticket...huff...it fell on the floor just now" he was still gasping for air as he handed you your ticket.
"oh...thank you" you said, still feeling shock, woah, did God answer your prayers?
"sorry for making you run here" you apologised quickly, as you slowly looked up, you noticed something.
blue hoodie. headphones. wait.
there's no way right? its been 3 days after that incident in the restaurant,
there's no way its him. right?
his face was still the same since your last encounter, and bro, he looks even better up close to be honest.
your words died on your throat when your eyes met his, you didn't even realised he knew how to speak your language,
time felt like it stopped that moment
"no worries, but I got to go now" he smiles softly like he was inlove with you, before dissapearing into the crowds
ah. how can you ever recover from that?
the day was near its end, the sun settling quietly as you browse around the comestic store,
it was also your last day here. You wanted buy some your favourite makeups before you leave.
slowly you search through the row of skincare and makeups. there's so much, you barely can find what you need without a staff
still, you believed you could save the hassle of talking to a staff who probably knows little to nothing about English. (and avoid stuttering and making a fool infront of them)
after what felt like years of searching, you finally found what you need,
beaming proudly, you reached out to grab it. however, to your dismay, someone else was a millisecond faster than you, leaving you empty-handed
you looked over, ready to face the 'culprit' who'd took the final bottle
your words died in your throat again
this is not a coincidence, you swore on your life.
instead of a blue hoodie, he was wearing a white tee with sweat pants. with those same headphones draped around his neck.
he looked at you and the bottle before realising,
"ah, sorry." he apologise, "here you can take it."
"oh, thanks" you replied, taking the bottle from his hand, his fingers graze over yours softly before he pulled back
"I come here often so no worries" he gave you a smile before turning around,
At that moment, you called him out.
God gave you 3 chances and there's no way you'll threw away the last one.
"hey!" you said, not loud enough to attract passerby but enough for him to hear you
"yes?" he paused and turned around slowly, eyes meeting yours
"can I....have your Insta?" you said, you wanted to mentally bang yourself in the head for saying that,
He paused at that, clearly not expecting that,
you were mentally prepared for the rejection, it's okay you could just never set foot here again after haha....
your thoughts are interrupted when he finally smile,
"thought you'd never ask" is all he says before walking towards you with his phone
wait....did he plan all this??!!
