Kapitel 44: Surprise
The next day early morning Ray arrived at Ye-Jin's place early in the morning. He was surprised to see Ye-Jin waiting for him sitting on the front porch. It seemed that she was slightly dozing off. Ray pressed the horn and she was startled awake. He suppressed his laughter but couldn't stop the little curve of his lips at her scared look.
On the other hand, Ye-Jin who was startled awake caught the sight of the sound in mere seconds and didn't waste any time idling on the cold floor. She quickly got up and made her way to the car and simultaneously Ray opened the door for her.
Ye-Jin: (smiling) Good morning Ray, you look happy?
Ray: (nodding) Morning to you too. Did you rest well?
Ye-Jin: (affirmative) yes I did and you?
Ray: I couldn't sleep much and I know you didn't either.
Ye-Jin: (sighing) I tried contacting Aera last night. She still isn't answering.
Ray placed his warm hand on her fidgeting ones in order to comfort her. Ye-Jin's hands were slightly cold due to her staying out for some time. She was a little surprised at the unexpected contact but she felt touched at the unspoken gesture.
Ye-Jin: I am fine don't worry. I am confident we'll sort things out between us.
Ray only nodded at her and chose to not comment. It was a matter between two close friends and he was in no position to interfere between them. The most he could do was cheer up the girl who was sitting beside him. The crease between his brows eased a little when he saw her relax.
Ye-Jin: (curious) by the way why didn't you rest well?
Ray: I had to prepare somethings for today.
Ye-Jin: oh!
After that neither Ye-Jin asked anything nor ray elaborate further on what he had been up to. Ye-Jin definitely had many questions churning in her head but she didn't dare ask Ray any because she didn't want to spoil the tranquillity between them.
The rest of the ride was spent in silence. Ye-Jin fell asleep in the car as it was comfortable and Ray couldn't make himself to disturb her even after they arrived at their destination. He just turned off the engine and waited patiently for her to wake up.
It didn't take long for her to wake up.
Ye-Jin: (drowsily) are we there?
Ray who was somewhat lost in admiring her calm face came back to earth when he heard her question. It dawned on him that he had been lost staring at her. A first he felt like kicking himself for behaving like a pervert but then questions arose in his mind as to what was happening to him.
Ray: (composing himself) Yes. We are there.
Ye-Jin rubbed her eyes to chase away the remaining sleep and looked out her windshield to see the very popular building standing imposingly in front of them. She was speechless and could do nothing except stare at the huge infrastructure.
Ray: (clearing his throat) shall we go in?
