That Android

"That Android, what is he really up to?"

Zeri was frowning hard as she ran away, murmuring to herself. She headed towards the rooftop as she thought about why that Android wanted her to be his girlfriend. She couldn't understand why no matter how much she thought about it. She could feel that he obviously wasn't serious at all. She could tell that he was forcing a smile.

Since she was young, Zeri had always been the quiet type. She used to just sit there and watch people. She had always been the invincible character. She grew up in an environment that never gave her the chance to speak for herself. Because of that, she learned how to observe people. She learned to read their expressions, the look in their eyes, the tone of their voice, and their body language; she noticed everything. She could see through someone's lies. She could tell if someone was faking something and her intuition had always been spot on.

This was the reason why Zeri avoided the pretentious girls who tried to approach her. If possible, she didn't want to stare into anyone's eyes. She never wanted to judge anyone just by her own viewpoint but she couldn't help it. However, maybe being like this wasn't that bad at all. She was able to avoid unnecessary dramas by not foolishly falling for other people's tricks.

So to her, that Android was no different. He obviously didn't like her or was interested in her, so why would he ask her to be his girlfriend? Moreover, he was such a stunning creature so why would he even want someone like her, especially when he always looked annoyed every time he looked at her?

Somehow, Zeri thought, that Android was a complicated being. She felt his insincerity but for some reason, he seemed different. She'd been thinking about it and she could tell that it wasn't just because he was the only guy who didn't trigger her fear. This was also the reason why she'd been staring at him since the first time their eyes met.

Zeri couldn't look any man in the eyes due to her fear, until this Android came, so she was trying to figure out what it was that made her not fear him. Zeri even tried to look into a man's eyes on her way home yesterday, thinking that she was already cured but she was wrong. She still had that extreme fear and it seemed like that Android was the only exception. Thus, she agreed with his offer, no matter how nonsensical it was. Aside from having no choice, Zeri thought that by doing this, she might find out the reason why she was not afraid of him and when that happened, she might also discover a way to cure herself.

"Your decision is right Zeri, you did well. Besides, even though his fuse seems to be short, that Android doesn't seem to be that bad since you're not afraid of him so just bear with it and go for it for now!" Zeri could only encourage herself before climbing up at her personal hideout.

…

Meanwhile, the number one heartthrob who just came out of the mini forest wore a terrifyingly dark expression. He looked so displeased but his cold and dark expression made every girl around him swoon as usual, despite the chilling temperature he exuded.

"Oh god, look at that expression! I didn't know that our prince looks even cooler when he is displeased!"

"That's right, this is the first time I've seen this expression! He's so damn hot!"

"No matter what mood he's in, prince Kira still looks ethereal. Ahh… my heart!"

"But who dared to displease our prince like this?!"

"Good question. We better find out what happened. We won't forgive anyone who dares making our prince look like this!"

As the students murmured to themselves, Kira couldn't hear a single word coming from them. He was busy thinking about that Squirrel. He couldn't believe that she ditched him just after he told her that she was now his girlfriend.

That damn Squirrel, did she not understand what 'girlfriend' meant? How could she leave the great me like I was some trash she didn't need anymore?!!

By the time Kira entered his private room, Rei, who was waiting for him inside, could only grin the moment he noticed his dark expression.

"Wow! I'm guessing Miss Kim did something interesting for you to become like this." Rei mischievously said while Kira simply sat as he loosened his tie.

When Kira remained silent, Rei continued speaking. "Did she perhaps reject you?"

"She said 'okay' without batting an eye, can you believe that?" Kira smirked as he shook his head.

"Ohh, that's unexpected. But why do you look displeased? Wasn't this what you were after?"

"That girl. That squirrel… ahhh… I'll make sure to make her fall head over heels with me. I won't let that cheetah escape again next time!"

As those words left Kira's mouth, Rei could only tilt his head in wonder and awe. This result was more than what he expected. This was the first time Kira said something like this with intense seriousness.

I never thought Zeri Kim's impact on him was this huge. Haha, it looks like the upcoming episodes are going to be fun…
