I was waiting for Minho to arrive, feeling restless and so annoyed of myself. Like what the hell Cass, you shouldn't have let Ethan affect you. Urgghh I hate myself, how can he do that to me? I'm so easily turned on by him. Later tonight, I have to get rid of that man.

I kicked out all the stones I could find to vent my anger. I'm so mad at myself right now.

*beep beep*

I looked up and saw Minho waving at me from inside the car.

I smiled at him, feeling guilty. How can I let this guy get close to me when I'm still so unclean and sinful?

I sighed and approached the car. "Hi."

"Hey lady. Hop in."

The ride to school was somewhat uneventful. Minho asked me about my sleep, and I couldn't tell him I'm with my ex. How perfect is that. He also told me he'll be starting to work at their construction company.

"Is Gina also in your firm?"

'Yes. Since it's a family business. Gina's father is the current CEO."

"Oh wow. So rich. So Gina is next in line?"

"Supposed to be. But Gina doesn't really like doing that job. She favors being an architect and design, design, design."

"So, a brother maybe?"

"She's the only child."

My mouth grew wide. "So you're the next?"

"Eh, I think so. No one from the family are in this field. So, I think so."

"Wow. Minho, that's very good."

"Yeah, but that's still far. I have to start at the bottom and you have to start teaching." He pointed at the front. The school came into view. We have arrived so quickly.

"Thanks Minho. Take care. Good luck on your first day! Ganbatte!" saying that with a fighting hand pose.

He laughed, "Sorry, don't understand that last bit but take care. I'll see you later."

I got out of the car and blew him a flying kiss before walking to school.

"So what was that kiss now? Huh? Huh?"

"Ash, shut up. You know, I never imagined you being like this. I thought you were a serious guy because of your voice. But naah, expectation vs. reality."

"Haha well. Don't judge me by my cover."

"I think that should be the book, not you."

"I don't like being compared to a book. But, let's get back to the subject at hand. Are you and Minho..?" Ash is wagging his brows up and down.

I sighed. "We're friends. You know, getting to know and stuff?"

"And stuff? What is that?"

I facepalmed. How could this guy be a teacher. "You should teach now look, the kids are getting restless. Go on, go on. I'll be distributing their quiz scores."

The day went smoothly without Ash pestering me since he's being pestered by the kids.

After the class when all the kids were fetched, Ash sat beside me on the teacher's nook, draping his body all over the chair.

"Cass! Why didn't you help me? I'm so tired."

"Why should I? The kids want it to be you."

"I hate you."

"Well, thank you."

"Let's go home. I want my Gina."

"...."

"What? Bitter? Come on, move on from your ex. Minho's the best you know."

We walked outside and locked the room when I answered, "But when you love someone, he or she will probably the best in your heart."

"Oh wow Cass, so romantic. But I can't deny that. Well, I hope for the best for you. Oh look there's your best."

I followed his line of sight. Minho's car is approaching us.

"Well Cass, I'd better go and see my Gina. Goodbye!" and then he rode his car.

I rolled my eyes and muttered, "Lovebirds."

I boarded the car and met Minho's tired eyes. "Oh wow, first day and you're this tired?"

"Yeah, sorry. I was assigned as a team leader immediately and with a huge project at that. I have to go back and finish the plans."

"Then why did you even come for me? You should have told me that you'd be busy so you won't get dis-"

"Cass, I missed you already."

"Uh.. "

He chuckled. How fast.

"Uh, Minho we were just together this morning."

"I know Cass. But, I guess I was just so tired and down in the drain that I want to see my sunshine."

His sunshine? Me? Whaaaaat? My cheeks reddened. "Minho, that is soooo, arrggh I can't even put it into words. But, I guess I'm happy that someone's still longing for my presence."

He didn't answer for a couple of minutes, but a grin is plastered on his face.

"Cass, I'm sorry I can't treat you to dinner. But I'll make it up to you next time."

"Minho, really it's okay. You don't have to worry. Focus now on your work, so that your dream house would be finally realized."

"Yes. Our house in the future."

"What?"

He chuckled. "Nothing. Here you go, I'll see you tomorrow. And sorry for no dinner."

"Minho, don't make me repeat myself. It is really okay. And for tomorrow, just contact me if you can't make it. I will understand."

As I got down, I heard his car door open. He stood close then hugged me, "Thank you Cassidy."

"Silly. What are you thanking me for?"

"For being here with me. I hope it will stay like this."

My heart ached hearing Minho say that. What is wrong with me? Am I feeling guilty?

I sighed. "Minho, thank you. And take care!"

He kissed me on my cheek, and went away on his car.

As I pushed open my door, I saw Ethan leaning on the kitchen counter, looking pissed. Why do I feel like I'm going boating on two rivers?
