chapter 32

                                1"A state of confusion, illusions and restlessness. She needs to rest", said Nazma."We are your friends, Zaini. You are in South Korea for your internship and we went to a club and you are high right now", said Nazma."Really?? Did I make it to South Korea? Did I meet Kim Jae?" asked Zaini holding Nazma from her shoulders. "Yes, we met him this evening only", replied Nazma."What?? OMG! Why don't I remember anything? It must have been an amazing experience to meet him", said Zaini thinking hard."Don't ask what the scene was!" uttered Leo."Yes, it was an amazing experience but now we should go back to our flat. We need to go to the hospital tomorrow morning", said Nazma and tried to move Zaini towards the car.Zaini pushed her away and started running on the road."The breeze is cool here. I like it. It feels comforting when it touches my face", said Zaini in a slurry voice. Kim Min Ho ran after her. Nazma and Leo looked at them in disbelief. "I don't think she can make it to our flat until unless she sleeps. She will make a scene there too and will fall into a mess again with the hospital", said Nazma."You are right. Let's go to my house and I will drop off both of you earliest in the morning at your hospital", said Leo."Your house?" "I mean Kim's house", said Leo reminding himself what they had told them earlier.                               2Zaini stopped at the bridge which they had passed earlier by the car. She looked towards the water and far away from the city."I have seen this view many times in Korean dramas. Today, as I am standing here I believe dreams do come true if you trust them. I am so happy right now", said Zaini opening her arms towards the water. Kim Min Ho looked at her with love. "You have highly positive vibes. You are like a magnet. Every time I see you I feel like moving closer to you. I want to see you all the time. I want your cheerful face in front of me always", said Kim Min Ho without realising he was confessing his feelings for her. Zaini looked at him from the side and then laughed."Are you trying to woo me!? Well, nice try but how can you flirt with someone without showing your face? After all your expressions also matter", said Zaini in a slurry voice which made her look even more cute. Her open hair was playing with the cool wind. The little makeup that she wore added beauty to her already beautiful face. It was getting hard for Kim Min Ho to stop looking at her. He was blown by her presence and forgot the surroundings. He could not listen to what she was saying, as he was not able to listen to her. He was just looking at her beautiful face and talking lips. Even though Zaini was not in her senses she realised Kim Min Ho was not listening to her. She turned towards him. She waved her hand in front of his eyes. Finally, she moved his mask from his nose down to his chin. Zaini could not believe who was behind the mask. She rubbed her eyes quickly but the face didn't change. "Are you Kim Jae?" asked her in a slurry voice again.Kim Jae smiled looking at her."I think I am in Love with you!!" uttered him.Zaini was utterly dumbfounded.                                3Meanwhile, Nazma and Leo were discussing what to do next with Zaini. Suddenly, Nazma's eyes fell on Zaini and Kim Min Ho. Though they were a little far from them and it was dark, she could see Kim Min Ho was heels over his head for Zaini.  "Tell me one thing. Does he love her?" asked Nazma looking at them.Leo looked at them too and then at Nazma. He didn't know what to say. "I don't know. How can I know?" replied he, trying to avoid the conversation."Why can't you know? You are always with him like a shadow. You two must be sharing your thoughts", said Nazma looking at Leo with suspicious eyes. "He doesn't share everything with me", said Leo."Hmm... Well, even if he has feelings for her ask him to stay away from her. She is already committed. Her boyfriend cares for her a lot", said Nazma. "Tell this to him who doesn't want to accept it!!" uttered Leo."What? Speak louder!" said Nazma."Nothing!"                                4Zaini kept staring at Kim Jae's smiling face as she could not believe it was him.Suddenly, she smiled back and said, "I have seen your face with such expressions multiple times on the screen. I used to pause the dramas and look at your face for hours. You look so handsome and cute that sometimes I felt perhaps one day you would look at me with the same expressions. And, believe me, I would die that day!!" "I am looking at you only!! But don't you dare to die? I want to spend my life with you. After waiting for so many years, I have found my true love. I am dead sure, this is not an infatuation. You have grown over me in such a short period", said Kim Jae with love-filled eyes."You are joking, right? I must be highly drunk right now. This dream doesn't feel like a dream. It feels more like a reality but I know this is a dream", said Zaini trying to grasp the words coming out of Kim Jae's mouth."It's not a good time of my life. My dramas are not working. I don't have someone special in my life. The one whom I met recently and I feel magnetic vibes from her, looks at me as her dream, not as her reality. What an unlucky person I am!!" said Kim Jae in sadness. Although he felt relieved after confessing his love, he knew she was not in her senses to understand him."Ahh... Kim Jae, don't feel sad. You are the hero of the story. You will get your heroine somehow", said Zaini holding his face in her hands, in a childish way. Kim Jae smiled at her cute face. Zaini again looked at the water under the bridge. Kim Jae was still looking at her. The whole time Kim Jae was standing with his back towards Leo and Nazma. Leo shouted at them to come back.Â
