Sam’s P.O.V: 305Please respect copyright.PENANAncm7qhlFM6
305Please respect copyright.PENANANfStuHdRc0
305Please respect copyright.PENANAyCGVwFHIRq
We were back at the café, where we had dumplings. It was the only place we could sit and talk, as there weren’t many people. Zoey, Mino, Lee, and I sat in one booth while the others sat in the next one. Mike and Daniel remained standing, watching what might unfold in front of them.305Please respect copyright.PENANAJSucaw1sxA
305Please respect copyright.PENANApqUoa7eqO4
305Please respect copyright.PENANAQ76Afsy2ID
Lee, in her aunt outfit, really looked like an angry one as she said, "You really have a lot of explaining to do, Zoey. What were you thinking about going over to that club? Do you really want Collins to hang all of us?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAiz74bYBMdT
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMkeiCMrpk6
305Please respect copyright.PENANAE5hnaOkHt6
"I was just going to talk to Johnny." Zoey tried to defend herself. "I wasn’t going to do anything stupid, I promise."305Please respect copyright.PENANA0OY7Nqc48A
305Please respect copyright.PENANAN8NylMHnPL
305Please respect copyright.PENANACONzqZORjA
"Then why didn’t you tell us what you planned to do?" I asked. "And don’t tell me that you knew I was going to refuse."305Please respect copyright.PENANA569rKltyfS
305Please respect copyright.PENANAASt16KKXRU
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHIouSgUmWN
Zoey opened and closed her mouth instantly. She was going to say exactly that.305Please respect copyright.PENANA59IZWNCwhw
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMBFTB7NY89
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkOkd4D0lDi
"You know very well that Collins told us not to get near him," I continued. I turn to Mino. "And were you really going to follow through with her plan?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAGS8ogAa9mZ
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhZIzlvo9q5
305Please respect copyright.PENANASCvC87QEAp
Mino shook his head. "I did try to tell her that it wasn’t a good idea," he answered. "Now I wish I was a bit firm with her."305Please respect copyright.PENANAGQ1VDOPJFb
305Please respect copyright.PENANAjfK6KtzdCS
305Please respect copyright.PENANAyojMjhPFKH
I sighed. I had no reason to be mad at Mino. Zoey can be persuasive sometimes. Moreover, there’s no denying that he likes her a lot and would do anything to please her a little.305Please respect copyright.PENANAXckWxYaRs6
305Please respect copyright.PENANASvP2vr6710
305Please respect copyright.PENANAxywHbyIea6
"Okay, now that we have Zoey," said Mike, "can we have some fun, like, for real? We can’t end this night with a sour mood, right?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAJPNYT3GvQA
305Please respect copyright.PENANARlZ8k9dGTG
305Please respect copyright.PENANAtADIUp9Xok
"I agree," said Zoey. I quickly looked at her, and she covered her mouth. Right now, she has no right to suggest anything, not after what she did.305Please respect copyright.PENANAFqIuQlgYHa
305Please respect copyright.PENANAzb6i4IhQou
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvnah3HevrA
"Yeah, you can hang out if you want," said Lee as she leaned back on the seat. "I’ll go back to the car. This search for Zoey really got me so worked up that I need a breather."305Please respect copyright.PENANA5rsobbSqRl
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhHq4KxhEs0
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZR67Pfadl
"What?" Christine came up from behind the booth, looking down at Lee. "I thought you wanted to try out those shoes that we saw earlier. And they are in your favorite color." 305Please respect copyright.PENANAHq625WOnRz
305Please respect copyright.PENANAqLfar2CqLu
305Please respect copyright.PENANAZflrAirz43
"Yeah, come on, Lee," said Zoey. "Shopping isn’t fun without you. If you want, I’m going to accept any punishment you give me."305Please respect copyright.PENANA0psZY8hURk
305Please respect copyright.PENANA6sTeRH9rrI
305Please respect copyright.PENANARd1RUhWs82
Lee raised an eyebrow. "You went too far this time," she said. "How sure are you that I’m going to forgive you?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAmptW6mdTca
305Please respect copyright.PENANAI8WGIyCzs1
305Please respect copyright.PENANAdhLiYlOUqs
"Because you see me every day, and staying mad at me is pointless," Zoey answered.305Please respect copyright.PENANAM763WvnCmR
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYFJ8jBsaJb
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHPyEf5BnZ0
"I couldn’t have thought of a better answer," said Daniel.305Please respect copyright.PENANA67t3AS2sZL
305Please respect copyright.PENANAZz0Lzsi0oj
305Please respect copyright.PENANAL9LuKuJPOH
"Smart," said Lee. "But you’ll need a lot more than that to convince me to go shopping with you."305Please respect copyright.PENANAFft01AVxIi
305Please respect copyright.PENANAqJg4oFztP1
305Please respect copyright.PENANAqZ9RPfWiUT
Zoey turned to look at me, and I shook my head, telling her that even I don’t know what Lee wants. It’s best she figures that out for herself.305Please respect copyright.PENANAA7tlWL8MCe
305Please respect copyright.PENANAsMVNneJo6j
305Please respect copyright.PENANAorfsSY3HXt
"Come on, you guys," said Jungkook, who now came over by the booth. "We’re in Hongdae. We can’t let this opportunity slide. I can guarantee that we’re going to have a lot of fun."305Please respect copyright.PENANAPFltl5liUH
305Please respect copyright.PENANAD86UOajMb8
305Please respect copyright.PENANAlk7RqL8OMG
"Come on, Lee," said Christine. "Jungkook does have a point. Who knows if we will ever get to come back here with the busy schedule that we have? Let’s take advantage of the situation."305Please respect copyright.PENANAeCQo8Jdwgz
305Please respect copyright.PENANApg9zRD84hq
305Please respect copyright.PENANAEenwfaFToi
Everyone else started to chip in, doing his or her best to convince Lee. In the end, she gave in.305Please respect copyright.PENANAZoiZ9nV0O0
305Please respect copyright.PENANAIfS3hLPFey
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkptpjEsfmC
"Okay, fine," said Lee. "But let’s remember to keep a low profile. We don’t want to attract attention to yourselves."305Please respect copyright.PENANAAIV0ouxRZn
305Please respect copyright.PENANAil776N6u6Y
305Please respect copyright.PENANAfrEpRFkQ5L
"Yes!" Zoey cheered loudly. "I knew you would come around."305Please respect copyright.PENANASgwiPVN9cs
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5C2uZqKqCm
305Please respect copyright.PENANAxE78zgGJ96
"I’m only doing this because Jimin, Jungkook, and Mino are here." Lee folded her arms as she looked the other way. "Don’t think you’re off the hook, Zoey."305Please respect copyright.PENANAr75CcbxOa5
305Please respect copyright.PENANA3KXAKaQxqX
305Please respect copyright.PENANA0TMbhprYwm
"If you think I will forget, I won’t," said Zoey with a smile. Oh, she will definitely forget by tomorrow morning.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4V6kaVnKm8
305Please respect copyright.PENANAigZsjsu0R0
305Please respect copyright.PENANAaP8I0jtrnn
"What do you suggest we do first?" I asked Jungkook.305Please respect copyright.PENANACeYf1gd3bz
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHeVlNpqTRz
305Please respect copyright.PENANAAzEBlnpsnk
"We can start by buying ourselves another serving of dumplings," said Daniel as he licked his lips and started to make his way to the counter.305Please respect copyright.PENANAornwLZftWP
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeDCuq9JHul
305Please respect copyright.PENANAe1zarmh4hj
"Daniel, wait…" I called out to him. However, he was already at the counter. Christine apparently joined him. I shook my head. Something tells me that we might be carrying boxes of dumplings home once our stay in South Korea is over.305Please respect copyright.PENANAHOObzGeihm
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMYRzwQ98IS
305Please respect copyright.PENANADFycvObP2S
"When those two get fat, Collins is so going to kill us," said Lee, shaking her head in disbelief.305Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZK9yQeO6m
305Please respect copyright.PENANAyVTbe105BN
305Please respect copyright.PENANADDFMYCGsot
After we finished our dumplings, we had to walk a few blocks back to get the high-heeled shoes Lee wanted. Afterwards, we visited shops that sold traditional Korean outfits, which Zoey couldn’t help but admire. I remember telling myself when I first came here that I would get myself one. Therefore, I decided to look. Christine, Zoey, and Lee were so frantic about it that they also started to look at which Hanbok would look good on me giving their comments. I made a mental note not to tag them along when I get to look for my wedding dress in the future.305Please respect copyright.PENANABfuQLhHmxo
305Please respect copyright.PENANA3cLtTntctP
305Please respect copyright.PENANAafRpzkikj2
"This is the most excited I have ever seen them," said Jimin as he came to stand next to me.305Please respect copyright.PENANALthSgI5Qm8
305Please respect copyright.PENANAUfyj80jIyH
305Please respect copyright.PENANAZGYXw4covH
"Trust me, this is nothing," I said. "Whenever I want to try out something new, the three are always in the forefront of picking things instead of me."305Please respect copyright.PENANAb01GPW8oeW
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHIZdMvm3TP
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMe6JlFo7Po
"Yeah, and it’s annoying," said Mike, who was on the other side of the store going through the male section with Daniel and Mino.305Please respect copyright.PENANAYtlts6o0nr
305Please respect copyright.PENANAIIHo3UwwUN
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYggO1aibGN
"Then maybe you should’ve come here at a later time without them," Mino suggested.305Please respect copyright.PENANA5GZefOrfkz
305Please respect copyright.PENANAASCaPR5t3i
305Please respect copyright.PENANA83do7RbKcp
"Nah, this time is fine since we've got such a busy schedule," I said. Before I could go to the next hanger of clothes, I stopped to look around. "Has anyone seen Jungkook?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAmLT1UdYDpk
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeRdotLKJ9f
305Please respect copyright.PENANAuqMsuKYPoy
The five of us who stayed close started to look around. Weird. He was behind Jimin a few seconds ago. He definitely hadn’t gone with Lee and the others. So where is he?305Please respect copyright.PENANAqYjLnxVk1Y
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmcOFf6Nu6E
305Please respect copyright.PENANATuOVpBNsB7
"He’ll turn up," said Daniel. "Maybe he found something that he wanted to try on and is in the men’s room as we speak."305Please respect copyright.PENANA2CxJRWHfxw
305Please respect copyright.PENANA1hgQhKLYB4
305Please respect copyright.PENANAh0JcvMhc4P
"Wow, you sound casual." I gave Daniel a look. "What if he happens to get noticed? Then we’re all toast."305Please respect copyright.PENANA8WGqKV34oU
305Please respect copyright.PENANAuz1EXIsS76
305Please respect copyright.PENANAPRB8uoF455
"You think too much," said Jimin. "I doubt if he has found something to go and try on. He would’ve told me first."305Please respect copyright.PENANAldSxvbywtf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAGgcG4b5yJu
305Please respect copyright.PENANA84izCqbh35
"Hey, Lee!" Jungkook's voice came from across the store. "Come see this."305Please respect copyright.PENANAsTtUJ3J6vq
305Please respect copyright.PENANApB6MGWReLD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAv028rIuUAt
Jimin and I turn in the direction of Jungkook’s voice. I see Lee, Christine, and Zoey rush to where he is. Don’t tell me he was also looking for something for me to wear.305Please respect copyright.PENANAemJGWhEVc8
305Please respect copyright.PENANA2PcrY2BiBQ
305Please respect copyright.PENANA8Za5peJGXa
I start to walk over to where Jungkook is, and Jimin happens to follow behind me. When I got close, I couldn’t help but see stars in the three women’s eyes as they looked at the Hanbok Jungkook picked out.305Please respect copyright.PENANA82KrmQArRQ
305Please respect copyright.PENANABgvSqtGYio
305Please respect copyright.PENANAUj69JLCbYZ
"Ah, this is so pretty!" Zoey exclaimed. "Sam will look amazing in this one."305Please respect copyright.PENANA2w1CoxN2TU
305Please respect copyright.PENANAcMqpVYR46l
305Please respect copyright.PENANA6M69VEeoKg
"What do you think, Sam?" Jungkook, showing me what he had chosen.305Please respect copyright.PENANAHzSczQYxFC
305Please respect copyright.PENANAowdAfEQYCy
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvxIUIC9qDx
The Hanbok he picked was a white blouse and purple skirt. The skirt is beautifully designed with pleats and waist strings. At the bottom of the hem, there were beautiful flower patterns. I had to admit that Jungkook picked a pretty Hanbok.305Please respect copyright.PENANAA09Y4F9Gsm
305Please respect copyright.PENANAGEaqAIBCrB
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvG775yHsIr
"It looks lovely," I commented.305Please respect copyright.PENANAVM0pXzq5tD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMuaoF1yL8a
305Please respect copyright.PENANAGxeM3452Dg
"Jungkook really has good taste," said Mino, who, with Mike and Daniel, came over to see.305Please respect copyright.PENANAZUAtjr63z2
305Please respect copyright.PENANA59N2FvNpsD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAlPr5AsnY17
"You should put it on, Sam," said Jimin.305Please respect copyright.PENANAMEHzyg3aJD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAlN89ut4L0t
305Please respect copyright.PENANAOXVBa26Qg6
"I’ll help you put the blouse on," said Lee. "It can get a little complicated when you’re trying it out for the first time."305Please respect copyright.PENANA0txsE1S7PY
305Please respect copyright.PENANAwJcAM1eKZ1
305Please respect copyright.PENANAqcNiCGgMX5
"Yeah, I will need the help."305Please respect copyright.PENANAqXYHekcttr
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgiOpqh9Cw6
305Please respect copyright.PENANAglHYf7rK05
Jungkook handed the dress to me, and I followed Lee to the changing rooms. I could hear Zoey and Christine giggle as I walked away, and I knew they were obviously talking about the outfit that Jungkook so happened to pick out.305Please respect copyright.PENANAgkTYIhAs2s
305Please respect copyright.PENANAn6nbUMRuqq
305Please respect copyright.PENANAXGHNuMDHre
Lee and I came to the women’s dressing rooms and entered one of the empty stalls. It felt so good to take the hoodie and mask off. In addition, when I started to change into the Hanbok, I couldn’t help but notice just how comfortable it felt. After Lee tied the strings of the skirt behind my back, I turned to look at the full-length mirror. I can’t believe that I’m actually wearing a Hanbok.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqnNXSGds1X
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhc5umG4A8j
305Please respect copyright.PENANAdYUqceWjS3
"Oh, you look so pretty," said Lee as she stood behind me. She glanced at me in the mirror as if I were some gorgeous doll she had dressed up. "Your mum will think you’re adorable once I send her a picture."305Please respect copyright.PENANAAWNq4edOw2
305Please respect copyright.PENANAw0YmbR0Pym
305Please respect copyright.PENANAbldKGUzaN3
Lee pulled out her phone and did just that. I turned to look at her with a glare.305Please respect copyright.PENANAMs5pgxKs2z
305Please respect copyright.PENANABFQDn5zCyv
305Please respect copyright.PENANAnBGLFEuc6f
"What?" Lee asked as she shrugged her shoulders. "It’s not my fault that you look pretty. Come on, the others are waiting to see you."305Please respect copyright.PENANA8TxaPUJ6PF
305Please respect copyright.PENANAFugx6gg0cK
305Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZTiB5feVm
"Oh, before I go out..." I turned around to where I lay aside my clothes to look for the mask. However, Lee took hold of my shoulders to lead me out of the changing room.305Please respect copyright.PENANAfGntLPdySC
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmmTKqeAfQd
305Please respect copyright.PENANAs9J6wKfJkt
"There aren’t many people in the shop," she said. "Don’t worry about a thing. The others are waiting for you outside."305Please respect copyright.PENANAFy6GhQydmS
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeTl72IL81A
305Please respect copyright.PENANAr1eUTGCteV
Lee opened the door and led me out of the room. As expected, we found the others waiting outside the changing rooms. Christine and Zoey jumped with excitement as I appeared before them.305Please respect copyright.PENANAwKVulJDGku
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvRADTtlCnp
305Please respect copyright.PENANATxgE6EHb0G
"You look so pretty, Sam," commented Zoey as I found her approaching me. "I have to say, the Hanbok really suits you."305Please respect copyright.PENANA8icShtuRiD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgEKy5mAqRr
305Please respect copyright.PENANA7paz1RKBux
"Stop making me blush," I said as I nervously tucked a strand of my hair at the back of my ear.305Please respect copyright.PENANAUdLcdsWhcD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAXakZMTVHdQ
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVujzBm9Fkg
"No, it’s true," said Mike. "You look really lovely. I can’t believe I just said that."305Please respect copyright.PENANAPjtADzv3pb
305Please respect copyright.PENANAII0ABftBDc
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHQ2QNaJM3r
"Same here," I said, giving off a nervous laugh.305Please respect copyright.PENANALYecaLjYem
305Please respect copyright.PENANAnF4WYTNVDW
305Please respect copyright.PENANAxHCl00extk
"Mum is going to love this," said Daniel, who had already pulled out his phone to take a picture.305Please respect copyright.PENANACjAWvZ08zJ
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhejWJmu7Yc
305Please respect copyright.PENANAp5rQm3nIkP
"I know, right?" Lee asked. "You definitely look adorable."305Please respect copyright.PENANA3I4feC6GJN
305Please respect copyright.PENANATwMxqqVEY9
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvDTB5yyl2z
"You can say that again," said Mino as he smiled at me. "Once your fans see you, you’ll be the talk of the town."305Please respect copyright.PENANAi8KP2Kxgnu
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmneFvQi58l
305Please respect copyright.PENANAbCbosEDqjp
"Yeah, I know that," I said. "Please don’t post the pictures you’ve taken so soon. I don’t want people to know right away that I’m here."305Please respect copyright.PENANALSkRRFBk0E
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgGjHrAU3Bv
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvC0oY3CUy3
"Don’t worry," said Christine. "The last thing we need is for us to do what Zoey did when she filmed you with G-Dragon and the video went viral."305Please respect copyright.PENANA3UVxEXmXSf
305Please respect copyright.PENANArFmvk5dLI3
305Please respect copyright.PENANAE4tC80S8lw
"Wait, that was you?" Mino asked, turning to look at Zoey.305Please respect copyright.PENANAuBRjcjWgEC
305Please respect copyright.PENANAf6TJXjY1SZ
305Please respect copyright.PENANAQaopf6ys7R
Zoey folded her arms. "Yes," she answered, looking rather annoyed at Christine for bringing it up. "But I didn’t mean harm, and I did say I was never going to do that again."305Please respect copyright.PENANAcpLFdU0ctj
305Please respect copyright.PENANARLf30BFuKx
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMdbArkKFUS
I saw Daniel, Mike, and Christine give Zoey a look, and I knew what they were thinking. It’s funny how Zoey could’ve remembered that. She usually doesn't, and there are times when you have to remind her. Anyway, it hasn't been too long since the incident happened.305Please respect copyright.PENANA9IiD7DD6Lf
305Please respect copyright.PENANArCsaErFf5r
305Please respect copyright.PENANASpE3cwkNXp
"Smile here for the camera," said Jimin as he also had his phone out to take a picture. "You really did good choosing this Hanbok for her, Jungkook."305Please respect copyright.PENANADV2iVYZQoI
305Please respect copyright.PENANAC1k1Kb7nVL
305Please respect copyright.PENANA8hm9L5fh6o
All Jungkook could do was smile under that facemask of his, which wasn’t hard to notice; just like everyone else, he was looking at me. The look in his eyes showed that he was proud of himself for picking out the Hanbok.305Please respect copyright.PENANABbl8mcBe5q
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHq2GqVgMU6
305Please respect copyright.PENANAzSqDlT3Eyq
"Thanks so much for picking this outfit for me, Jungkook," I said. "It’s really lovely. Not to mention that I just love the color purple."305Please respect copyright.PENANAWKn5vRpb5t
305Please respect copyright.PENANAXMG4UGpXXI
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvGzs5CmgAV
"Don’t mention it," said Jungkook. "I remembered that it's your favorite color."305Please respect copyright.PENANAHTabrIAgYI
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkAZUaykVGf
305Please respect copyright.PENANASXx172Swaz
I blushed, and for some reason, I thought of quickly turning away, especially when Christine and Zoey nudged at each other. I wish I could hit them on the head to stop them from mocking me.305Please respect copyright.PENANAtyQyT6jvMw
305Please respect copyright.PENANAtQpcRL2VQ8
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhGHRjYuvS0
"Oh, yes, it is," said Mino. "You must really be a fanboy." He nudged Jungkook with his elbow.305Please respect copyright.PENANAiZuLvGpTu4
305Please respect copyright.PENANAAb2yZDqQ5W
305Please respect copyright.PENANA53agAWA277
"No, I’m not," Jungkook replied shyly. "I just so happened to come across that once online; that’s all it is."305Please respect copyright.PENANARgbTqBPzZI
305Please respect copyright.PENANALkX8hP7V4w
305Please respect copyright.PENANA7Nn9hVpVID
"I better go change," I said. This is getting embarrassing. "Are you all done with taking pictures?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAT4QjUcM1Ay
305Please respect copyright.PENANAR0QvGW3O83
305Please respect copyright.PENANABgoSDNamDw
Zoey and Christine replied no. As though they were photographers, they quickly took pictures. Others thought of taking photos with me still dressed in the Hanbok. Each person took a picture with me. Then we all took a photo together, with Mino being the one holding the camera and taking the selfie with everyone behind him.305Please respect copyright.PENANAdeVD2PK5xr
305Please respect copyright.PENANASZ9CcwJkuf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAPypfmczPKh
Afterwards, I went to change back into my clothes, with Lee helping me out again. When we came out of the changing room, we found that the others had dispersed to different parts of the store. I heard Zoey and Christine talking over which traditional attire to choose from.305Please respect copyright.PENANANOo74lpHYf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAs6eSxdL4f0
305Please respect copyright.PENANA3A382GA0Xu
"Finding a Hanbok is going to be hard for those two," said Lee as her eyes also fell on the pair.305Please respect copyright.PENANAzi1JnA2agD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhVXnGdsVMc
305Please respect copyright.PENANAapt5VirShl
I smiled. "Mine was a little easier, wasn’t it?" I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANAyVUMSZHrbf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAs7RN0X6DkB
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMMBOxGbEhH
"That’s because Jungkook found it." Lee looked at me. "Sometimes men know better than women when it comes to such things."305Please respect copyright.PENANA1QRb204a5c
305Please respect copyright.PENANAtqyzCHR1HC
305Please respect copyright.PENANA6plv65JW2Z
I would’ve agreed with her, but that sent me blushing somehow. It was sweet of Jungkook to find me such a pretty Hanbok. I just wish Zoey and Christine wouldn't mock me about it.305Please respect copyright.PENANAgVtdF0AdwA
305Please respect copyright.PENANAynTA1TX4Q5
305Please respect copyright.PENANAv8iSCN9iSG
I told Lee that I would be going over to the counter to pay for the attire. She said she would accompany me.305Please respect copyright.PENANA8sCbaILlCt
305Please respect copyright.PENANATZVR9AdCcw
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5nzwgKIwCM
"Aren’t you going to find a Hanbok for yourself?" I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANApdo9ZiDIH3
305Please respect copyright.PENANAb2FJJC3sdn
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYinbaBkTx4
"Nah," she replied. "They’re gorgeous to wear, but I’m just not interested like you were."305Please respect copyright.PENANACQEBNmvKc8
305Please respect copyright.PENANARTnF89SoeY
305Please respect copyright.PENANAlfyZ5bGAP1
"Point taken," I said.305Please respect copyright.PENANAeue5b0cJfW
305Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7rBxFehFH
305Please respect copyright.PENANA7Yi25aMDVa
When we got to the counter and paid for the Hanbok, the rest of the others joined us. I started to look around for Christine and Zoey, but they were nowhere near the female clothes section. Did they find outfits and decide to go try them?305Please respect copyright.PENANADFfJELjL2e
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVddnksGKq8
305Please respect copyright.PENANATvYZN11yiF
"Has anyone seen Christine and Zoey?" I asked the others.305Please respect copyright.PENANAEdbS7iFhOu

"With that Hanbok, do you plan on buying the traditional shoes that match with it?" Mino asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANA7ky3WyC53h
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkOQl7Glodl
305Please respect copyright.PENANAbmADCjDES6
"To be honest, I never thought of it," I said as I looked at the Hanbok, now packed in a black garment bag. "Maybe I should."305Please respect copyright.PENANAAKNtUDk4qK
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVusGqjoCRG
305Please respect copyright.PENANAIxqiWM2gFg
A woman by the counter said, "There are some shoes that you can look at. I suggest you get the white ones to match the dress."305Please respect copyright.PENANA1GYvy4yeM0
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHSFLoGtPGQ
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVckSWjmvq9
"I can help out if you like," Jungkook offered.305Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZjlwpFlDv
305Please respect copyright.PENANAcUTi3Gf9hm
305Please respect copyright.PENANA4uVWA6MCj0
I gave him a nod of my head, and we went over to the shoe section, not far from the counter. Jimin and Mino had nothing to do, so they joined us. Mike and Daniel decided to look around a little.305Please respect copyright.PENANANJUHFFpU9w
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhGYoVgyZOf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAsZb93XCNm1
With Jimin and Mino around, I discovered there were three types of women’s shoes that could go with a Hanbok. Kkotshin, which are silk shoes with flowery embroidery. Unhye are low-cut silk shoes decorated with cloud-shaped silk pieces. Then there are dinghy, which are low-cut leather shoes with scroll patterns. There were all pretty shoes, which made it difficult to pick. Even with the others’ help, they were having a hard time choosing. I noticed how much time had passed while looking for a pair of shoes and how long Lee had been gone to look for the girls.305Please respect copyright.PENANAfo5fx9oUgm
305Please respect copyright.PENANAyfZb7K6dvb
305Please respect copyright.PENANAWllhTSOfi6
"I wonder what’s taking them so long," I said as I turned to look around. There was no sign of them anywhere.305Please respect copyright.PENANAXBXukEGUvr
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmV1X69SMOf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAfhNp3Kw2pp
The others didn’t seem to hear me, as Jimin said that he might have found a shoe for me. Mino and Jungkook joined him to see what he had picked. He picked white kkotshin shoes.305Please respect copyright.PENANA2qtQcEFY9i
305Please respect copyright.PENANABmm7ACElie
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeNMjBrHQIh
"This will look great on you," said Mino. He checked the shoe size underneath it. "And it’s just your size. You should try it on."305Please respect copyright.PENANADyO0RbBd5U
305Please respect copyright.PENANAwNLCzeZYj9
305Please respect copyright.PENANABn6G85equG
I took my shoes off and put the white kkotshins on. They fit perfectly, and the gold flower embroidery on the shoes added a nice touch. It will suit the dress very well.305Please respect copyright.PENANAbqY3w7X7EU
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5F9QiqyLFk
305Please respect copyright.PENANA7BkbFZmAVR
After removing the shoes and wearing my shoes again, I notice Mino looking around as though looking for something. He must be looking for Zoey and the others.305Please respect copyright.PENANARGHeSPwybX
305Please respect copyright.PENANAQEaxPXwy1v
305Please respect copyright.PENANAFNeuIanTT0
"Hey, don’t you think the ladies have taken too long?" he asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANARqHq4Ax7wR
305Please respect copyright.PENANAJLAv7INCXS
305Please respect copyright.PENANAWAhNgpMjEQ

Mino and Jungkook decided to come with me. Jimin said he would wait by the counter. We first went to the changing rooms. The two men waited outside while I went in. There were four changing rooms, two on either side. Three rooms were occupied, while one remained empty. I decided to call out to see if Zoey was here.305Please respect copyright.PENANAvuTzQcNsGX
305Please respect copyright.PENANA0fAa2e1QxC
305Please respect copyright.PENANASNMieA49bw
"Zoey, are you here?" I called.305Please respect copyright.PENANAhWKfLiZrYr
305Please respect copyright.PENANAFqKTftOP9b
305Please respect copyright.PENANAdeedpKwIPu
I didn’t get a response until I heard someone muttering; it sounded like Zoey. Likewise, I walked over to the door of the changing room, where I was hearing the noise, and knocked on the door.305Please respect copyright.PENANAiu65lS4BAR
305Please respect copyright.PENANA3UVA0RBfgi

"Sam, thank goodness," she responded. "Please come in. I can’t seem to get this blouse off, and it's killing me."305Please respect copyright.PENANAM4kn2fEoZJ
305Please respect copyright.PENANArsBKRTOPYV
305Please respect copyright.PENANAN6E15OCkhq
I rolled my eyes as I opened the door. For sure, I found Zoey struggling to get the blouse off. I helped her wear it again before properly removing it for her.305Please respect copyright.PENANAYasj189C9X

305Please respect copyright.PENANANrqzz2WeZj
305Please respect copyright.PENANAAU2Hjtqcbl
Strange. Where are the two of them now? I told Zoey that she would find me outside the changing room. I walk out, and not only do I find Mino and Jungkook, but Lee as well.305Please respect copyright.PENANAeR7H6mMPyS

"No," Lee answered. "I checked the women’s room, and I made one more sweep around the shop, but nothing. She’s not here."305Please respect copyright.PENANAOzrncrnYKa

Lee still had a phone by her ear. A minute later, she shook her head and said, "She isn’t picking up her phone."305Please respect copyright.PENANA0Wk6iVI0MC

"She still isn’t picking up her phone," said Lee, now with a worried look on her face. "It’s not like her not to answer her phone."305Please respect copyright.PENANASjTNQ23DNx
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeGJ49jxNtW
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgzQt45PZjL

305Please respect copyright.PENANAH94ACzEW9N
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMjJYmYGTzz
We all turned to look at Zoey with weird looks. Why is she bringing Johnny up all of a sudden?305Please respect copyright.PENANAGw9rmU2kwa
305Please respect copyright.PENANAp02w1MBACf
305Please respect copyright.PENANAwB6dIdbywQ
"Now you’re being paranoid," said Mino. "We all know where he went, and Hongdae is a big place. How can he have found Christine out of the blue?"305Please respect copyright.PENANA9LAdEWSh5E
305Please respect copyright.PENANACr7Q60f4iQ

"It’s too early to assume anything," said Jungkook. "It looks like she went out without telling us where she was going."305Please respect copyright.PENANAqb7a8zIktj

305Please respect copyright.PENANAN4kjUvBYsy
Everyone agreed, and we joined Jimin at the counter, who had already paid for my shoes. I told him he didn’t have to, but he insisted that it was the least he could do. Zoey decided to pay for the Hanbok she had picked. When Jimin asked Zoey if she was going to get some matching shoes too, she said she would come by later when we found Christine.305Please respect copyright.PENANALpG4b7dTyb

305Please respect copyright.PENANAtXIYdyP49B
305Please respect copyright.PENANAO09Bklqlb1
I was walking down the crowded Hongdae Street, thinking to myself, Sam and the others are going to murder me for abandoning them like that. My phone had beeped for a second time, and I found Lee was calling again. I can’t pick up and tell her where I am going. She would tell the others, and they would definitely come after me. I do hope they don’t worry about me too much. After the stunt Zoey pulled, my disappearing act might just put them on edge.305Please respect copyright.PENANAfnRB0NUAnK
305Please respect copyright.PENANApwGvKdeSeW

Then why am I out here?305Please respect copyright.PENANA51aTm9Konl
305Please respect copyright.PENANAidOdXCv3of
305Please respect copyright.PENANAPO1ClPNYyD
Simple, really. While I was helping dress Zoey into the Hanbok, I received a text from Jinwoo. I told Zoey that I would be right back and texted him back. He was asking where I was, and I told him about Hongdae Street and finding Zoey. It so happens that he was also around the area and wanted us to meet. I didn’t want to tell anyone, for they might make fun of me, and that’s why I left like I did.305Please respect copyright.PENANAnxmhNdi37B
305Please respect copyright.PENANAw4bFwZ7wNM
305Please respect copyright.PENANArUgtGJhqe2
Jinwoo gave me directions to where he was, and I noticed that the place had many restaurants and small outdoor eating venues. I don’t know why, but meeting him made me feel a little nervous and excited at the same time. It isn’t normal, is it?305Please respect copyright.PENANA79GaFseqgK
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeLHuehDMWD
305Please respect copyright.PENANAy8RNjwzTcw
I finally arrived at the outdoor restaurant. The brightly lit bulbs that lit the place and the green leaf decoration that acted as a roof above the restaurant made it look spontaneous. It didn’t take long to spot Jinwoo sitting on the table in the middle of the restaurant. There weren’t many people around, so he easily noticed me as well. He stood up from his chair as I walked over.305Please respect copyright.PENANAvmNF7VUKWV
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvey4PbfIVV
305Please respect copyright.PENANA6WI2C8NjtY

305Please respect copyright.PENANAe2RvcK44FQ
305Please respect copyright.PENANADjy4PWm6kB

305Please respect copyright.PENANAjS6ofwENTl
305Please respect copyright.PENANARQZU328fU0
I sat down, and he went over to take his seat. We sat facing each other, and I couldn’t help but blush. I still wore the disguise, and I’m surprised that Jinwoo recognized me. He also wore a black mask covering the lower part of his face, and I can’t help but notice the blue jean jacket and black shirt that he wore with matching black jeans and white canvas shoes. He looked so cool. Why am I blushing so much?305Please respect copyright.PENANAqrLgv7qEGR
305Please respect copyright.PENANALXXSl61SPW
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmBvjjEd2oC
"The others aren’t going to be worried about you disappearing on them, are they?" Jinwoo asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANAKbYkx2mjcY
305Please respect copyright.PENANAofMRCFI75f
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVj9IrQTY50
"Nah." I playfully shook my head. "They will be fine. I bet they think I went over to the dumpling shop and will be back soon."305Please respect copyright.PENANARy3sEzZ5VS
305Please respect copyright.PENANAAfpTwPJJQM
305Please respect copyright.PENANAtrEdxDonsN
"Anyway," said Jinwoo as he picked up the menu on the table. "Let’s order before it gets too late. There’s a special Korean cuisine that I would like for you to try out. Will that be fine?"305Please respect copyright.PENANAawGjeCMkCm
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkXyOClUnUp
305Please respect copyright.PENANAY6HklqZbNU
"Ah." I was caught absentminded for a bit, as I couldn’t stop staring at Jinwoo. When he asked, his eyes found mine staring at him, and I felt like hiding under the table in embarrassment. I cleared my throat to answer. "Yeah, sure."305Please respect copyright.PENANAChVUp23nn6
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgktp1So4Ia
305Please respect copyright.PENANAh634JK5FHd
I could tell Jinwoo was smiling at me under that mask. He turned to look for the waiter nearby. There was one behind him, and he called out for his attention. The waiter came over, and he talked politely in Korean as Jinwoo made the order.305Please respect copyright.PENANAHGSRSTgi0r
305Please respect copyright.PENANAOmaBObket9
305Please respect copyright.PENANAK6hfVtfDAS
With all that is going on, I couldn’t help but blush so much, and my heart beat fast with each dying minute. This whole thing felt more like a date. Is it? I don’t think so, but I wonder what Jinwoo thinks of this. Maybe I shouldn’t ask. Gosh, I swallowed as I tried to prevent a squeal from leaving my mouth.305Please respect copyright.PENANABKi8rf0aiq
