Chapter 177 - Grant them [1]

A sigh escaped from her mouth, and she mumbled, "I knew that this wasn't going to be fun."

But that's when, she felt a pair of cold hand grip her cheeks, and taking her by surprise, her face was turned to face Oh Sookyung. As her eyes met with his, she raised one of her eyebrows.

Before she was able to question what he was trying to do, he took her by surprise by placing his lips on top of hers— a romantic gesture Moon Jiwoo had usually seen in the movies.

She had believed that in real life, this was quite a cringy thing to do, but now that she was kissing Oh Sookyung, her thoughts were not the same anymore. Maybe it was because the other party was Oh Sookyung.

Closing her eyes, she responded to the kiss with equal fervour as buŧŧerflies fluttered down in her stomach. Her heart started to beat rapidly while her hands grabbed on to the material of his clothing.

Her cheeks were dusted in a shade of pink, but due to the low lighting, it was bȧrėly able to be seen.

Her thoughts were no longer on boring the ride was. It was completely contaminated with the thoughts of Sookyung and the kiss. The man was truly sly to do something like this up here.

Moon Jiwoo wondered whether or not this was the reason he was eager to get on to this ride so badly.

After he pulled away from the kiss, he flashed her a wide smile, and that's when, Moon Jiwoo noticed that the ride was almost landing. It seemed that time had passed much faster than she had expected.

A strange thought on how she wanted to continue the ride for much longer and have Sookyung kiss her longer crossed her mind. Seeing how she was able to have such thoughts flustered Moon Jiwoo a lot, and she cleared her throat.

"That was unfair!" Moon Jiwoo exclaimed, embarrassed.

Knowing that Moon Jiwoo had very much enjoyed that despite of the reaction she was displaying currently, a chuckle escaped from his mouth.

Soon enough, the ride landed, and the door was opened by the staff. Instantly, Oh Sookyung jumped down from his seat.

Then, extending his hand, he held it out for Moon Jiwoo. As Jiwoo's eyes fell on his hand, a smile spread on her face, and she grabbed it.

With support from it, she got down from the ride and showed him a thumbs up for his good job.

"So, what do we do for now?"

Almost all of the rides were played by them, and there was nothing more Moon Jiwoo wanted to try out in the amusement park. After all the snack she had earlier, she wasn't hungry either. No matter how much she thought about it, there was nothing much left for her to do at here.

While both of them walked by each other's side inside the park, Sookyung curved the corner of his lips while he tilted his head to face the woman before voicing out, "Why don't we just walk around like this? The temperature is quite cool as well."

He intertwined his fingers with hers and swayed their hands while he walked. As a slightly bashful expression sat on Moon Jiwoo's face, she nodded her head.

That's then, something came in Moon Jiwoo's mind, and as she wondered why she hadn't asked something important as this to the male before, she questioned, "So what are you planning to do now?"

Knowing that he wasn't planning to go to the Underworld, she knew that he was planning to settle down at here. It couldn't be possible that he wanted to manage a flower shop for his entire life when he did not hold a slight amount of interest towards it.

"No idea," Oh Sookyung said, "I just want to tag along where you are and spend as much as time as possible with you. That's all. I am rich after all, and I don't need to work hard for money."

Moon Jiwoo scoffed and commented, "If you are around me all the time, you will be easily bored."

"That's impossible! You are interesting to the point that you are capable of keeping me entertained for centuries," Sookyung vocalised.

"Why don't I feel happy after hearing something like that? Are you planning to torture me for centuries now?" Moon Jiwoo raised one of her eyebrows.

Oh Sookyung chuckled and stated, "It hurts when you say it like that. This is just me showing my immense love towards you."

"Love, my foot!" Moon Jiwoo mumbled.

"Since we will be living for centuries any way, why don't we just forget about work for now? We can think about all that when we get slightly older. Let's go on a trip all around the World. Since I am rich, I will be able to afford it."

"That's crazy," Moon Jiwoo voiced out.

"It is, but I don't see you being displeased by it. I remember you once saying that it was a dream of yours to go all around the world, and I think it would be possible for us to do that," Oh Sookyung stated.

Moon Jiwoo let out a chortle and asked, "Are you being serious?"

"Does it look like I am joking?" he questioned, putting on a poker face.

"I don't know. The thing is that I am unable to tell whether or not you are joking or serious," Moon Jiwoo answered bluntly, wearing a smile on her face.

"Right," he said, "I am being serious then. You should try to learn more about me."

"Not interested in that, but isn't that too impulsive of a situation? This isn't anything you can decide on the spot or something. More consideration should be put before deciding something like this."

"Really? Why? It's not like both of us have any friends or families who would be waiting for us. Moreover, even if you have friends right now, how long you will be able to stay with them before you have to separate? 

In a matter of time, it would only look suspicious to everyone. That's why, we can't stay at a same place for life."

"Are you meaning to tell me that I will be without friends for my entire life? That I have to be stuck with you always? This is such a horrible thing!" Moon Jiwoo let out a groan.

Oh Sookyung extended his hand towards the girl, and pinching the bridge of her nose, he voiced out, "What did you just say?"

As pain went through her nose, she moved back in order to avoid his touch, and sticking her tongue out at the male, she retorted, "I am not a dog. I am not going to follow your orders and repeat the words."

"Wow! Look at you being disobedient. Don't you think that you should be punished for these actions of yours?" he questioned.

"Catch me if you want to punish me!" Moon Jiwoo challenged before turning her back on the male.

With that, she stole a glance at his direction before turning her back on him and making a run for that. Seeing the girl's childish actions caused a sparkle to appear in those eyes of his, and a chuckle escaped from his mouth before he ran after her.

Moon Jiwoo turned back, and her eyes fell on how the male was running after her. Seeing how much speed was, both of her eyes widened, and she increased her speed instantly, trying to increase the gap between both of them.

However, no matter how much she tried, it seemed that the space between them remained the same, and she could see that Oh Sookyung was trying to tease her.

This was only starting to infuriate her. She did not know what to do against the male when he teased her in that way.

"Stop playing around! Just catch me if you can," Moon Jiwoo shouted, glaring at the man who was playing around with her.

"Are you sure that you wouldn't be crying if that happens?" he questioned.

"You Asshole, do you want me to chase after you instead!?" she exclaimed.

At her words, it seemed that the make did not waste a second further before increasing his speed, and it bȧrėly took him a couple of seconds before he closed the distance between both of them. He hugged her from the back taking her by surprise.

"I won again for the day. So, what is this reward you are planning to give me or should I just make two wishes for you to grant?"

"You are really shameless, but since I am quite generous, you can have two wishes. State them," Moon Jiwoo voiced out.

"Not now. I will do it later."
