Utterly confused, the artist tilted his head and rubbed the back of his neck.  He was more than eager to be of any kind of civil service but two  questions instantly injected his brain— why him and.. 

      “ ..uhh..who’s them? ”

She almost wanted to smack his head upside down. Did he not see the people that were pushed down with their items severely spread out all on the floor? People must only care about themselves nowadays, although that was like herself. However, she couldn't just stand by and watch some innocent people who were in need of her hand sit down there helplessly. She gave him a disgusted stare and quickly gestured her hand to the quite obvious incident before his very eyes. 

❝ Do you now see who's them?  Now that I have answered your question, can we quickly help them out of their unlucky situation? ❞

The woman rolled her eyes and made her way to pick up the items securely placing them in their respective shopping bags. She sighed and helped an individual up, placing the shopping bags back into their hands. A small, yet warm smile graced her lips as she looked at the other. Her hands unknowingly reached for the other's hands and lightly tapped them as if to tell them that everything was alright. Sometimes people needed that extra boost to keep their day going even when things weren't going so well. Then, her eyes made it back to the man who had such a clueless mind and shook her head in dissatisfaction.

"A fool?" His inquiry is laced with both curiosity and uncertainty, and his gaze lingers on her features; studying her expression, the emotion in her eyes, the way she carries herself. No physical attribute leads him to the conclusion that she’s a fool, nor does her words, but it seems that she sees something that he doesn't. An eyebrow raises, and he leans forward against the table, closer to her as she sits across from him.

"You don’t seem like a fool to me, but I've never been the best at reading people. Why do you say that, though? Don’t tell me it’s something silly like you've fallen for someone you can’t have, or blaming yourself for something you couldn't have helped—"

No matter what he said, she was a fool. A fool who believed something had horribly happened to him with his sudden disappearance years ago, especially since she hadn't been so well of herself either. She held grudges for a long time and as a matter of fact, he was one of the lucky people on this planet to actually have her care for him, so it only made the matter worse. She glanced at his action and leaned forward herself, raising her hand up to put her finger on his forehead, only to push it back. 

❝ It's not my fault that you never contacted me all those years when you decided to disappear. ❞

She was still angry even though they have met quite frequently after he had come back to South Korea. That was just perfectly like her, stubborn. If he had been nice enough and thought about what she would have felt about him being gone, it would have saved him a lot of trouble. She already had been through her own brother's disappearance which didn't end so well, so she was afraid to lose someone dear to her again. Jonghyun is a dear friend to her; they've been through a lot having been so close to each other for so long that it would break her heart to lose him.

 ❝ I'm not falling in love anytime soon, my dear friend. Trust me.  Now, did you find any lovely ladies while you were gone?  ❞

With that being said, she quickly muttered under her breath, "Now, who would want to date someone like him?" She snorted before taking a sip out of her coffee. Maybe it's because they've known each other for so long that he just felt like an older brother or a best friend, someone that she could easily mess around with and know that he wouldn't take it to heart. It was always fun to meet up with him and just chat about almost anything. She really didn't have any friends and he just about made it up for everything.

"I-" he stopped after the first word left his mouth, not sure what to say. He wondered if she was upset at something he did, but he recalled nothing that he would have done to induced such a comment. "I’m not quite sure what you’re talking about," Minhyun ended up saying, one hand placed at the back of his neck.

She was sure that he was in a state of confusion. The woman had not directed that comment to him, but rather to the young fellow next to him who she had a little argument with before this stranger walked in and quickly assumed that she was talking to him. What a cute little guy, hah.  

❝ Well, first of all, I wasn't talking to you. So, don't worry about it, really.❞

It seemed like he was a bit frightened of her, but who would be scared of someone with such a small appearance? Everyone thought she was an angel, but in reality she could kick all their asses like it was nothing. Quickly remembering that he was still there, she tapped the other's back trying to provide some sense of comfort to him but didn't know why she even bothered. Maybe it was because she was reminded of her dead brother. 

❝ Hey, you okay, right? Do you need like tea  or something? ❞

Blinking rapidly, the female’s eyes grew wide as she jumped in her spot, a quiet shriek escaping her lips as she moved to the side. “I’m sorry! Are you okay? Is this good?” She asked, tipping her head a bit.

Her reaction was priceless. She wasn't expecting her to be scared in any way, rather she just wanted her to move so that she could simply reach over to grab that instant cup noodles. Hunger was eating at her, literally. She quickly tippy toed in order to grab it before standing back in a more comfortable position. That cup noodles just had to be placed on the highest shelf possible; it was just her day.

 ❝ I just wanted to get this, sorry if I scared you. ❞

She responded as she waved the item in her hands with a smile upon her visage to show that she meant not harm. Yeolmu pressed her lips together as she stared at the other wondering whether she could go to the cashier to pay or not. She felt like she needed some consent from the other, it was truly odd for her to feel that way.  

❝ Did you need something  from here too?❞

"Excuse me?" Alessa tilted her head to one side, looking at the woman who’d addressed her.

She didn't mean to speak aloud, but somehow she just did. Speaking out her thoughts again was something the woman really should learn to get the habit out of. Her blank eyes cautiously moved towards the other, hoping that the other wouldn't get anything out of her useless words. 

❝ Oh, I wasn't speaking to you.  It's just me babbling to myself again, please don't mind me. ❞

Her fingers brushed her fringe to the side whilst she allowed a deep sigh to escape from her lips. As she exhaled in the fresh air, she slipped her hands into the front pockets of her coat where they would find warmth again.

"…Maybe that light won’t shine too much for a while, but if you give it some time, I think you’ll notice it."

❝ Let me ask you something, have you ever gotten your heart broken, ever? ❞

He spoke as if it was so easy to heal a broken heart. Obviously he didn't know much or simply decided to bury his pain inside somewhere like she had herself. However, her eyes softened up at his words. She did want to find that light again, but it just seemed too impossible for her. Happiness was something she was scared of and didn't want to feel it again, at least not for now.
