“If I remember correctly, you’re Sandara, right?”

He saw her frowned and pouted.

“Tsk! It’s Dee! Dee! Not Sandara!” She corrected him in a snappy manner.

He chuckled at her reaction.

“I prefer to call you, Sandara. It’s a beautiful name.” He said as he look past Sandara.

“Eeeh! Call me that again and you’ll be dead!” She said with her eyes slightly squinted.

“Sandara. Sandara.” He repeatedly said her name and the next thing he knew was the incoming flying shoe.

“Aww. That hurts!” He said as he rubbed his swollen forehead.

“Told ya. It’s supposed to be Dee, got it?!”She said as she picked up her thrown shoe from the ground.

‘”Fine, fine. Then, Dee it is!” He said as he shook his head.

He saw her triumphant smile which made him a bit annoyed at her.

“By the way, what are you doing here?” He asked.

“I answered that question earlier,” She answered without looking at him.

“Right, right. Let me rephrase the question. Why are you here?” Yunho asked irritably.

She looks up, rolls her eyes, twitch her nose and puffed some air action. She looks at the guy who was waiting for her answer and she let out a heavy sighed then smiled.

“Hmmm. I don’t know either. I just like here, its makes me feel all better.” She answered as she rubs her hands together.

“What do you mean?” He asked.

He saw her fidget for awhile and looks like she was thinking on how to avoid answering his questions while taking consideration of his feelings. He smiled at the thought that this girls doesn’t probably knew him.

“Oh well, it makes you feel alive, ne?” She answered as she runs around in circle.

He watched her as she spins and runs around in circle for a couple of times until the dizziness caught up with her. It was cute in a way and he just loves on how she flaps her hands like chicken while spinning round and round. She looks like she was having so much fun to the point that he was doing the same flapping minus the circling around.

He saw her fall and for a second, he got worried and immediately approached her to help her out when she suddenly burst out laughing and flicked the tip of my nose.

“Ouch. That stings!” He yelled and he was about to take revenge when he was mesmerized by her.

She looks so genuinely happy. Laughing over such simple things and creating such a lively laughter. Her laughter sounded so sweet and enchanting that he can’t help but join her laughing. Her eyes would squint and sparkle or it was just a mere illusion for him. He shook his head to shrug off the unnecessary thoughts.

“Dee, what class do you belong?” He suddenly asked which startled the girl.

“Uhmm.. What do you mean?” She asked as she avoid his questioning gaze.

“I mean, what grade and class do you belong so I could likely visit you during my free time. I mean, I don’t want to have this accidental meetings, you know, since we always tend to bumped to each other.” He explained.

She let out a nervous chuckle and her little fingers were kind of shaking.

“Hmm.. So?” He asked again.

“Ah, you see … I actually … ” She stuttered but was cut off when they heard a voice calling out for someone.

“Yunho! Yunho!” A female voice was calling out for him.

Yunho frowned at the annoying female who had disturbed his free time with his new friend. He tried to ignore it when he saw her smile at him and shooed him away.

“Go now. I think we will meet again.” She mouthed as he walks away from her.

When Yunho’s figure was completely out of sigh. She tried to stand up and after a few failures, she managed to get herself up and walked towards the bench. She was breathing heavily when someone tapped her back.

She looked back and sadly smiled at the unexpected person.

“Told you to stop playing this game.” He scowled at the fragile girl.

“It’s not a game.” She answered as she was gently carried away from the place.

It might be a simple game, a short conversation with a stranger or someone whom you just knew but then and there, it may also be the only thing you need to feel better. Strange, right?
