CHAPTER 2: Straight Forward

"Bella… He asked me, seeing the way he was lost in thought, it was as if the name 'Bella' was a kind of shock to him.

"Bella short of Isabella, I said.

"Oh I see ; he chuckled.

What so funny? Like when did my name turn to a comedy, I muttered; he must have read my mind as he apologized immediately.

"Am sorry !! I find English a little difficult" he apologizes with another handshake coupled with a Smile.

The way he smiles and laughs makes me happy "Such a sweet Soul; Jimin "I called out as I handed him the lunch Box which got his name in script on it maybe that's the initials.

"Yes Bella, how may I help him.

"I think you keep your lunch box in the wrong desk, "here"  I hand him, but he refused to take it, keeping my hand hanging in the air.

"This is for you Bella"; he said 

"I never told you I'm hungry".. I replied. He put his hand on his ear, signaling me of my earlier call.

"Oh I see, I Smile. That's thoughtful of him, we just met today, and he is offering me lunch… Woah! Who  is he? "Mother Theresa Son. I thought amidst with a chuckle.

"Jimin" I called out" you don't need to give your lunch to me okay., I will get something at the cafeteria… I told him as I went back to my seat.

"Hahahah. He laughed audible.

I was shocked again, "did he inhale a laughing gas, I muttered.

"Are you scared to eat my food, he asked as he moved closer to my seat.

My face is already covered in red as my colleagues silently watch the drama unfolding in their very faces.

"See Bella, am now your colleague and your friend… Besides this is my first gift to you… Are you seriously going to reject it" he asked with a poker face.

I was speechless, my mind stood still, the way he was straightforward with his words got me baffled, I was still trying to digest his words when he added more to it.

"Hello Bella. My name is PARK JIMIN, a music and a Dance teacher and your colleague and friend.

Just looking at him, I seriously don't know what to say, this is the funniest thing that happened to me today; I chuckled as I watched him introduce himself making a dramatic signal playing; even though his English was haphazard, doesn't make it less understanding.

"Nice to meet you, Jimin. I said as fast I could just to stop all the eyes focus on me; 'but since you are new, can we share the lunch?

"Arasseo.  He responds in Korea if that will make you feel better and less scared of me
