CHAPTER THREE

Seonho is actually a really nice guy, and he's not that bad after all.

I guess I was just overthinking things and thinking about it negatively.

After he gave me my camera, I asked him some questions about himself.

"Oh and by the way, what brings you here?"

"I came here for a vacation. I always wanted to visit this place, that's why," he answered.

But why? Of all places, why here? My curious self can't stop from thinking these questions so I went ahead and asked more.

"Are you alone? How long are you staying here? Where are you currently staying? Why here?"

He laughed at my questions and looked at me in the eye.

"That's too much to ask to someone you barely know."

I shrugged and looked away. I really want to get to know him more and I hope he feels the same way too.

I looked at the time. It's already 4:57 PM. How fast the time flies by.

Seonho saw me looking at my watch and said,

"Do you have to go home now?"

I nodded and told him,

"My parents might be looking for me."

He looked at his watch and nodded.

"I should get you home."

Does he even know where I live? Won't he get lost after bringing me home?

I don't think this is a good idea and I'm worried about him. He doesn't know a thing about this place, and maybe he'll get lost.

"But you'll get lost-"

"Trust me. I won't."

---

So I let him take me home. We rode a taxi on the way home.

I texted my mother and informed her that I'm bringing a friend with me.

It wasn't awkward on the way home and I got to know more about Seonho.

5 facts I knew about Yoo Seonho :

1. He's smart and is a good student.
2. He's their Class President and their Student Council President in grade school.
3. He plays the piano very well.
4. He has a nice singing voice (he said so)
5. He's the captain of their basketball team.

If you come to think of it, he's kind of like my ideal type in boys. I mean, he has it all, technically speaking.

After the 30-minute ride on the way home, we finally arrived.

I told him to be nice, and he laughed at me.

"I'm always nice."

We went inside the house bringing my DSLR with me and his backpack with him. (Yes, he still has his stuff with him all along)

"Ma, Pa, this is my friend, Seonho."

My mother smiled at him and so did my father.

"Nice to meet you, Seonho," my parents greeted.

"Nak, ang pogi naman nyan," my mother whispered to my ear.

"Ma, ano ka ba, nakakahiya," I whispered back.

"Come, let's eat!" my father invited.

"Ma, Pa, you go ahead." I told them both.

My mother and father went ahead and left us both in the sala.

"What were you and your mother whispering?"

He noticed.

"She told me you were handsome."

I laughed at him and he smiled. He looks even more handsome when he smiles.

"Seonho, you should stay for the night. You might get lost," I told him.

"No it's okay. I'll just eat dinner here and then leave."

So as long as his stomach is full, he doesn't care whether or not he gets lost. Wow, this guy.

We went to the dining table together and ate dinner with my family.

He wasn't shy at all and my parents really like him, as far as I can see.

---

After dinner, I went with Seonho outside the house.

It was already late. It was 8:30 PM already and he still hasn't gone home. I'm really worried about him, since I don't know how he'll get to where he's staying, but I trust that he knows.

"Klara, thank you for the dinner. I have to get home now."

He looked at his watch, then checked his phone.

"Are you sure you won't stay for tonight? It's getting pretty late."

I sound so worried, but he just giggled and looked at me.

He walked out the gate, and waved me goodbye.

"It was a pleasure meeting you. Goodnight, Klara."
