Aku.Dia.Kamu - Chapter NINE

Salam & 안영 to all ♥♥

.: NINE :.

It was 5 degrees below zero that morning. I couldn’t get up. I felt my body freezing up, though I already turned on the heater. Why was it so cold? It’s only early December.

Today my beloved appa would come back. So omma, me and oppa would go fetch him at the airport this evening. I love the airport. Why? I enjoyed the sight-seeing of the people rustled in and out there. If I was lucky enough, I might bump into celebrities.

“Omma I’m going out~” DongWoon was walking out and I was at couch watching the television.

“Out? What do you mean out?” Omma appeared out of nowhere.

“I’m meeting a friend?”

“A friend? Who?” I was curious to know.

“None of your business.” He scoffed. Duhhh, I was just asking. Stupid.

“No! Your appa’s coming home this evening. We need to fetch him remember!” Omma said with a cold face.

DongWoon’s expression as if he just remembered about it. “I’m sorry omma.” He slowly reached the door. “I’ll be back soon!” And the door closed behind him.

“Yah~! Sohn DongWoon!!!” Omma screamed to the door.

I turned my vision to the television back. I didn’t dare to look at omma who’s not in her good mood now.

“Do you have to go somewhere too like your DongWoon, Dayya?” Omma asked sarcastically.

“Noo?” I looked at omma and she went upstairs.

There were so many people waiting at the arrival hall. I bet today’s flights were pretty busy. I looked around, I saw people with banners with names on top of it. I tried to spot any celebrities’ names, but none.

I just looked at the door with omma beside me. Appa was supposed to be out now. “Why isn’t he out yet?” Suddenly omma asked.

“Molla~”

We waited and waited. The door was opened. People made their out of the door, pushing their own trolleys.

I saw someone waving at us, smiling.

“Appa!!!” I screamed excitedly.

“Omma~~ Appa’s there.” I excitedly shook omma’s body and showed her appa. She just smiled when she’s finally spotted him.

I ran towards him leaving omma’s behind. Appa’s stretching out his hands and I throw my arms around him. “Appa~ Bogoshipo~”

I could feel his hand caressing my back. It felt so good.

He loosened the hug, he turned himself to omma and hugged her. I love this.

“Where’s DongWoon?” Appa’s looked around, asking.

“He’s meeting a friend.” Wrapping my arm around his waist.

“Oh? Who?”

“He didn’t tell. He just left.”

Did I say that my oppa didn’t follow us? Stupid him said that he had plan to do. What was it more important than your family? I didn’t care much.

We walked hand in hand, like a happy loving family. It looked so beautiful, enough to make people grew in envy. I took over the trolley from appa, leaving my parents behind for them to re-united. I’m such a good daughter. I’m so proud of myself.

I was enjoying myself handling the trolley loaded with my appa’s luggages. I turned back to see my parents walked together hand in hand. I played around with the trolley like a five-year-old kid, speeding the trolley as if I was driving a Ferrari. Out of nowhere, another trolley appeared in front of me. I tried so hard to slow down the trolley, almost bumped into each other.

I became panic as my parents rushed to me. “Omo~ Mianhae.” I bowed 90 degrees. “Mianhae.” I kept saying sorry without looking at the owner’s face. I was too scared.

“It’s okay.” The voice was very sweet. It was a girl’s voice.

I gathered all my might to face that person.

“Wow.” My mouth opened in amusement. That girl is really pretty. She was so tall that I thought she’s a model. Plus her long golden blonde hair, made her complexion even better.

“I’m sorry for my daughter miss. She’s always this clumsy.” That was my appa. I was still amazed by this girl’s beauty. I didn’t even blink my eyes. She looked like a doll.

“Ahh~ It’s nothing really.” She smiled. Waaaaaahh. She looked like a goddess. Could I be like her? I wish.

Suddenly a guy went to beside her, smiling at us. He should be her boyfriend. They both looked great together. How could they be so perfect?

I kept looking at them until they’re gone behind the door. “Dayya ah~ Why are you so clumsy?” Appa took over the trolley from me. I just realized that the couple was finally gone. “Oh?”

He watched her as the bus’ door closed until she found herself a seat. Suddenly he felt something cold landed on his nose. He looked up.

It was the snowflakes.

The first snow in Seoul.

He looked back at A-Lya who’s enjoying the sight of snowflakes inside the bus. The time passed real slow on that moment. DongWoon couldn’t help but to watched her, enjoying her every moves. As the bus was moving, A-Lya looked at him, waving just like those in Miss Universe’s competition.

When the bus was completely nowhere in his sight, he started his walk home. As he was strolling the street, he couldn’t stop smiling. His memory went back to how A-Lya first showed up at the café just now.

**FLASHBACK

There were not so many people in that café. The pungent smell of the coffee trickling his nose. He loved the smell. He kept tapping his hand to his thigh. Looking around, trying to calm himself. Every time the main door was opened, he would look over. Afraid that it would be the person he would be meeting in a minute.

“It’s pretty cold today right?” He practiced himself some lines.

“No no no.” He shook his head. He took a sip of his black coffee.

His attention turned to the main door as he heard someone’s entering in.

And it was her.

Min A-Lya.

He nervously rose up. His hands straightened his wrinkled pants as his eyes were looking at her walking towards him.

As she reached to the table, she bowed approaching him. “Anyeong~ Sorry I’m late.”

“You look great today.”

Though she just wearing a simple red-coloured trench coat, she looked quite outstanding. He couldn’t take his eyes off her.

“Oh, thank you.” She took the seat across him. “You look amazing as well.” She flirted back.

That made DongWoon felt like his heart was about to burst.

**END OF FLASHBACK

His phone vibrated.

“Oppa~ Omma asked where are you?” – Dayya

“I’m on my way home.” DongWoon
