chapter 12.

Princess, let's get going. He intertwines our hands.

Okay.

He walked to the reception, paid for our meal and we walked hand in hand out of the restaurant, after walking for a while, I asked Kang Dan if we could go to SEO garden and he said it was okay, he intertwines our fingers again and pulled me towards the direction of SEO garden.

I spotted a bench nearby and I asked if we could sit for a bit, he leads me towards the bench and we sat down, both of us quiet and neither is willing to break the silence.

The incident from the restaurant replayed in my head, the way my Nigerian friends treated me like I was some piece of shit when they were actually the shit in the room. I wasn't surprised at their reaction,since I got to Korea they've distanced theirselves from me for some reasons I can't seem to figure out but I've since detached from them, not letting their behavior get to you will equal a better life.

Kang Dan.

Yes.

How did you know Sid and Jenny.

Them? I actually happened to walk into that restaurant one day and they called me to come sit with them, I thought it was a friendly gesture but I regretted it afterwards, they were all over me especially that Sidney girl.

As expected, she will be all flirty with her lame pickup lines.

No worries princess, there's nothing to be jealous of, I don't like easy girls, I'd rather go for the mean girls with a little bit of sass included.

Tsk, what makes you think am jealous, am not even your girlfriend. Lies lies, in my mind, I actually pictured myself strangling Sidney.

Take it easy princess, you look like you could kill a person right now, calm down, he whispered into my ears.

You don't wanna miss criminal code test which is scheduled for tomorrow.

Oh shit, I totally forgot about criminal code test. What time is it prince?

It's 2pm princess.

I'll leave when it's 4,30.

So you were saying…

You should be conscious of Sid Dan.

Why is that princess, you jealous some chick is gonna snatch your man to herself? He teased on a husky tone, first time I hear him speak in such a low tone and the sound of his voice sent shivers down my spines.

What makes you think I'm jealous, you're not even my man, I haven't fallen in love yet genius.

But we still have few days and I plan on making you mine after a month.

Sounds so cocky for a lover boy who follows me everywhere without any plan for his life other than being my follower.

You know I fancy you more that anyone princess, he tuck a strand of my braid behind my ears and for a moment I was taken back to a scene in a recent kdrama I watched.

Kang Dan, Please stay clear of Sid and Jennifer, chances are that she likes you and is jealous of us, and she's gonna try to cause a rift between us judging by how much she dislikes me for being myself.

Wait, she hates you for being yourself?

Yes, that's the painful truth.

But why?

She wants me to be one of her minions but I refuse to be one of her minions.

That doesn't come as a surprise considering how sassy you are, he gives a grin and I rolled my eyes playfully.

He caress my hair before speaking again.

Let's forget about them princess, let's talk about us.

There's nothing to talk about us. The only thing is that your one month is left with 6 days to make me fall in love with you but I somehow sense the opposite.

What do you mean, you sense the opposite. How?

Well it seems like yours falling hard for me while your efforts in me are seemingly bootless.

You're making it feel scary princess, the thought is creepy for some reasons.

Am not tryna sound scary, but six days from now you'll know if I really fancy you and if I don't, you'll be fancy free.

But I don't wanna be fancy free from you Victory, he dropped his tone to a low voice that only I could hear, I do believe am a proper man for you and I'll chase you till you're head over heels for me. His low voice had me feeling dizzy and thinking all kind of dirty things in my head, my mind imagined those voice whispering dirty things into my ears while he's having me all to himself in bed.

Can you imagine how delusional you sound right now.

And can you imagine how obvious your lie sounds right now.

I fight back the urge to bite my lips, I got caught lying to myself.

He moved closer to me invading my personal, he leans his face closer to mine.

Kang Dan what are you doing we're in public.

What makes you think I care about that.

What are you trying to… he silence me with his finger on my lips, he raise his left hand to caress my tight cheek and for a minute I forgot about the people around us, all I could actually see in my world was Dan. He didn't stop, he locked his gaze with my mine and stroked my right cheek pouring all his affection into that one touch.

My phone suddenly rang which jolts me back to reality and I move away from Kang Dan's touch to check who it was.

After receiving my call I stood up from the bench. Well Kang Dan, it's been a wonderful date today so I… he cuts me off again before I finished my sentence. Date? You consider this a date?

Yes, offcourse I do. If it wasn't a date what was it.

Well, it's a date, I was just surprised that you openly admitted to it being a date.

I guess I suddenly got too comfortable around you that I don't feel scared anymore I murmured enough for him to hear.

You did? He stood up and locked his gaze on me.

I looked away from him, my eyes starring everyday but his way.
