I felt Jiyong Kwon’s eyes gazing at me. “Adobo?”

I arched my face upward and met his eyes. “Huh?” I think the word “Pabo” is neatly written across my forehead. Now I pretty much want to murder myself. I cursed under my breath then sighed, “N-Nothing. I just remembered my fave food way back in the Philippines.” I muttered in a lower voice, turning my face at a slight angle. Stupid, Dara! Stupid! Stupid!

“I see,” nodding.

Just great! I can practically see my forehead’s reflection on his eyeballs with the word “CRAZY” in full blaring neon colors.

“Why do I have a feeling you’re avoiding me?” He asked matter-of-factly, as he was sitting on JaeBum’s seat.

Yeah, I thought I wasn’t being Miss Obvious. “I don’t think I am.”

I looked around and caught Jay’s eyes with his blank expression, and I replied by shrugging and swirling my finger on the side of my head, secretly. “HELP.” I mouthed the word.

“SOR-RY” He mouthed the words back. I watched him taking out his phone. After a few seconds my phone vibrated. “ADMIT IT! YOU CONFESSED ALREADY.” All in full caps.

What’s wrong with this guy?!

Isn’t it insulting if Jiyong’s laughing after he heard me saying I love him? I sneaked a glance at Jiyong who was now talking with Taeyang about something. “NO!” I said shaking my head while replying his message.

“What are you waiting for? Christmas?” Came his reply.

Oh man! “Ummm….How about? NEVER!” I texted back and turned my phone off and stuck my tongue out at Jay. “Okay, that’s pretty childish, Dara.” I said to myself. “Stop it!” I, again, talking to myself. I should stop having these words coming from my mouth, especially not this guy around. I swear he has pretty freaky mutant hearing powers.

Wasn’t it I used to be just thinking everything all in my head? How come words are spitting from my mouth? God! I guess my body is having a temporary tantrum or something. Temporary tantrum?! Where the f.ck did I get that freaking word?
