* Luna's POV *
Finally we arrived to our hostel. The girls were whispering saying that the building next to our hostel looks like the place where SHINee stays. I rolled my eyes in disgust. Haven't they got enough with their 'oppas' or what ever it is called? They really need to take a chill pill.
A white van pass us as we were busy carrying our bags to our hostel. From far I can see someone was looking at me. Like stalking me... I quickly ran into our hostel hoping that the stalker won't have the nerves to follow me. Luckily I didn't fell. My luck is starting to co-operate with me.
"Luna, you look pale" said Casandra who is also one of the schools honored student. She is like a best friend to me. What, you think nerd students can't have a best friend?
"I think someone is stalking me" I was out of breath.
Her eyes were like going to pop after hearing what I said. "Really? What are you going to do then?" she asks. I don't really have a plan. Wait, what am I doing? I shouldn't be telling this to her. I myself am not sure if it was stalker or not. I can't see things clearly for gods sake! What's wrong with me today? Why am I accusing things?
"April fool!" I said, showing a big huge smile at her.
"April? It's November..." her response make me realize what a fool I am.
"Novembers fool!" I said. Casandra raised her left eyebrows like waiting for me to explain more. "Novembers fool is something I just made which you have to make two silly things in one time" I randomly explain to her.
She looked me in the eyes. "Hurry up and get your new spectacles. You're going to be a loony soon" she said sarcastically. Fine, I failed at lying. It's a good thing right?
Someone knocked the door and said Mr. Gordon was looking for me.
"Yes sir?" I said.
"What took you so long?" he asked.
"Err sir, I can't see clearly remember?" I answered his question. Duh- he was the one who wants to bring me to the shop to fix my broken spectacles and now he is asking me silly question? Awesome...
Mr. Gordon then burst into laughter. I can see that he was wiping his tears. Is it so funny?
"I'm sorry Luna, I forgot. So shall we?" he said and I can see that he was putting out his hand towards me.
I was trying to reach his hand but which one is it? There are so many hands!!! "Err sir, again I tell you.. I can't see very well"
Once again he laughed at me. Hooray I'm his new joker... Whatever.. He grab my hand and off we go searching for a shop that can fix my glasses. Mr. Gordon tells me his silly stories along the way. I was amazed to hear that he was once caught a robber with his bare hands! Isn't that cool or what? He even tells me that he once tried to make a new recipe of a popcorn by substituting the honey to chilli. Guess what happened next? Everyone who tasted his popcorn began to have a massive case of diarrhoea.
He can be funny sometimes despite his strict identity. I wonder why is he still single... Suddenly I bumped into someone and I fell.
"Mianeh~" that voice- how come that voice is so familiar?
"Luna, are you okay?" Mr. Gordon asked as he was trying helping me to get up. CRACK! "Oh! My back!" Ouch, that's not a good sign.
"A...re you okay?" that familiar voice asked. I was astounded. I'm sure I've heard this voice before.
*Onew's POV*
"I'm going out," They all looked at me simultaneously after hearing my statement.
"Where are you going?" asked the manager.
"To the convenient store," I lied. Actually, I was thinking a lot about the girl I met at the airport earlier. The one that was talking to the pole. Yes, the one whom her glasses were broken because of me.
I was thinking if I should replaced her broken glasses with a new one. So that's why I'm going out, to the optical store which was just a stone's throw away.
"I'll be back in awhile," I closed the door and quickly went outside the apartment where we lived.
A few people had noticed me while I was walking down the street. I smiled at them. That's who I am, always smiling to other people and somehow make them feel warm inside. The weather was really great today. Not too hot nor too cold, just nice.
"Hm?" I stopped. From afar, I saw someone familiar. I looked at her sharply, and I was right. It was the girl I met at the airport! Wait, who was she with? Her boyfriend? No, he looks too old for her. Where is she going?
The girl was getting nearer and nearer, but I couldn't move even an inch! I wonder why. I was practically staring at the girl, until she accidentally bumped on me!
Great, now she fell on the ground, and I was still standing there like a statue. I soon realized that she needed help because of the broken glasses. "Mianeh~" I said.
"Luna, are you okay?" I heard the old guy asking her while trying to help. So, her name was Luna. What a beautiful name.
CRACK! "Oh, my back!" I looked at the old guy as he struggled to ease himself.
"A...re you okay?" I asked, to both of them. They didn't looked much convincing in that state. Should I lend a hand?
"My... my back," said the old guy. Ah! His back. I helped him to get up slowly.
"Are you okay, sir? Is there anything I could help you with?" I asked again. He nodded.
"My back is aching. You know, old man's stuffs," I wanted to laugh but I must respect him. He doesn't really looked that old, but he was talking that way.
"I'll escort you to the clinic and get a check up from the doctor," I decided. For a moment there, I've forgotten about the girl named Luna who was still down there, on the ground.
"Oh, do you need a hand too?" I asked her, and offered my other hand. Luna took it and back on her feet.
"Er... Thanks, I guess," I stared at her for awhile. Actually, it's funny seeing a person wearing a broken glasses, but I tried not to laugh.
I quickly stopped a cab and brought both of them to the clinic. The nearest clinic took about 10 minutes by car.
In the cab, I could sensed someone was staring at me. I turned to my side, and saw the guy looking at me with half-closed eyes. What's with this guy?
"By any chance, are you.... SHINee's Onew?" asked him. I smiled, before nodded slowly. He picked his fingers. "I knew it! I'm Gordon, a teacher from a school in Canada. We're in an exchange program which took place in here. Nice to meet you," We shook hands like we've known each other, which wasn't true.
Mr. Gordon was talking like a mad person, about how excited he was, meeting a famous idol on the street. I guess he had forgotten about his aching back. I didn't talk much since my focus now was on Luna, the girl with the broken glasses. She was staring at me from the moment we entered the cab. I wonder why.
*Luna's POV*
Who is this person? And why did he helped us? And most of all, why do I feel that this person's voice is familiar? Where could be the possible time that I'd met him before?
Through my blurry vision, I saw him talking to Mr. Gordon. From what I heard, he was a famous idol from the contemporary band... SHINee? And then something clicked on my head. Yes! SHINee! I heard that name in the airport earlier! The one that had made all our students gone crazy. Yes, so that's how it is. But, what's with his familiar voice?
And again, through my blurry vision, it looked as if he was staring at me. I wonder why.
"Luna?" I suddenly realized that someone called my name. It was Mr. Gordon.
"Yes, sir?"
"Were you day dreaming? I called you 5 times already!" said Mr. Gordon. I quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, sir. I didn't hear you. So, what is it?"
"I'm sure you know who's this kind young man here, right?" Mr. Gordon smiled. Although I couldn't see it clearly, but I could sensed it.
I shook my head. "No," I know Mr. Gordon was shocked after hearing my answer. Thinking that SHINee is a well-known band, who wouldn't have shocked knowing that there's still people like me who have no clue about them?
"You better be kidding me Luna. This kind guy here is Lee Jinki also known as Onew, the leader of SHINee" Mr. Gordon started to explain to me after hearing my shocking answer.
"Shiny? You mean like the dish detergent?" I asked.
I can sense that 'Onew' was trying to laugh but maybe due to some respect, he didn't. "That's not it. We are contemporary boy band. Our group consists of 5 members including me"
Mr. Gordon added, "They are going to debut in Japan soon"
"Sir" I called him. "Do you, by any chance.. follow this group?" I asked. Not that he can't but it was just funny to see him eagerly explaining about SHINee.
"I'm not fangirling, Luna. It's just my niece talks about SHINee so much that I, automatically starts to follow them. Not being weird but their songs are so addictive. Noona neomu yeppo~" at the end of his answer, Mr. Gordon started to sing.
Suddenly, Onew starts to join him to. It's like a duet... but in a cab. They were singing, enjoying the music and what I hear was only 'Her whisper is the lucifer'. What the?
"It's only a song Luna" said Mr. Gordon. Maybe my face accidentally showed them how shocking I was listening to that lucifer thingy. I only smiled, pretending that I don't care but deep inside I was ashamed.
"So Luna, do you know K-Pop?" Onew asked. His voice, so familiar but where? I didn't answer his question straight away because my brain was too busy recognizing where did I heard voice. "Luna?" he called.
"Ahh, I'm sorry but have we met before?" I asked him which was a shocking thing since I didn't plan to ask him. It was a spontaneous question.
*Onew's POV*
"Her whisper is the lucifer!" that Mr. Gordon is sure an awesome teacher. He is such a cool man. I wish my teachers was like him.
I looked at Luna. She looks beautiful although her broken spectacles looks funny. Wait.. broken spectacles? Is she the one... ?
How do I ask her about her spectacles? I can't be so sure that she is the one because I myself can't really remember the face just now but somehow I think, she's the one. I must try to talk to her, get her into a talking mood then I will ask her about the broken spectacles. Yes, what a genius plan!
Here goes nothing... "So Luna, do you know K-Pop?" I asked bravely. Hoping that she will be comfortable talking to me. But her sudden silence is killing me. I mean why is she like that? Closing her eyes like she is trying to remember something. "Luna?" I called her.
"Ahh, I'm sorry but have we met before?" she asked me. That's clearly not an answer!!!
"Onew was asking you a question. Where are your manners Luna?" Mr. Gordon kinda scolded Luna for not showing a good attitude.
"Ahh that's okay sir" I calmly said to Mr. Gordon.
Luna was quiet, thinking for an answer. "K-Pop? Yeah I've heard of it a lot lately" she answered in a well-not-so-mannered tone. I bet she was angry that Mr. Gordon scolded her. I only nodded.
"We are here" said the driver.
I was just about to escort Mr. Gordon out when he suddenly said, "Onew, I can walk from here. You go and bring Luna to the spectacles shop"
*Luna's POV*
So here I am, walking with the leader of SHINee... the group that I believe, many girls would be dying to meet them. Yeah, I guess I should consider myself as a lucky girl. Although I'm not a fangirl...
I had to hold his hands along the way. It's not that I want to! I'm not that pervert okay.. but it's because I can't see things clearly and they were so many people heading our way, walking behind me. The pedestrian zone were very busy, like there is no difference between the road and the pedestrian zone. Someone accidentally bumped into me.
"Are you okay?" Onew asked. He gently grabbed me but something happened. While he was grabbing me, I almost tripped and accidentally bumped into his chest. Only god knows how fast his heart was beating. Quickly I pushed him slowly.
"Sorry" I said, embarrassed. I hope no fangirls saw what happened just now, because I heard that fangirls are so loyal to their idols that they will do anything to protect their idol. Plus, I heard that they will pull hairs too! Gosh... I don't want to be bald.
"That's okay" he said. I hope he didn't take it as something weird. "Hurry up or the shop will be close" he added.
We walked into the spectacles shop. I was very happy to think that I will get to see everything clearly again, but the shopkeeper said they will need to take 3 days to fix my broken glasses. That's what Onew translates. "What? Are you kidding? You expect me to walk in this big city with no glasses?" my tone of voice was kinda high which make me the centre of attraction.
Onew then talked to the shopkeeper. I don't know what they are talking about but I'm certainly sure that Onew was on my side. It seems like he was negotiating something with the shopkeeper.
"Luna, the shopkeeper says that your spectacles are really in a bad shape. So in order to fix it, you have to wait for 3 days. That's the minimum" said Onew.
"But how am I going to see after this?" I asked. Seriously how I wish I didn't have to come here. My luck is getting further and further away from me. Soon it will disappear...
Onew didn't get to answer my question when the shopkeeper suddenly interrupted our conversation. Again, I can't really understand what they are talking but I hope it's something good. At this point how I wish I know who actually stepped on my spectacles.
"Hmmm" that was the only sound Onew make.
"So?" I asked him eagerly.
"He said that he will give you a cheap spectacle for you to borrow"
Say what? I have to wear a cheap specs. "Fine whatever. As long as I can see" I replied in an insincere tone. I know I should be grateful but somehow I am really not satisfied today.
"Okay then. But first you have to undergo through some eye tests"
*Onew's POV*
Is she the one?
After Luna got her new cheap spectacles, it's time for us to head home- I mean hostel. We didn't hold hands anymore because Luna can see now. It was kinda scary when she looked me in the eyes just now.
"So this is how Onew looks like" she said while her eyes were looking at my auburn hair.
I didn't say a word. "Let's start everything all over again shall we? Hi I'm Luna, I'm here because of the school exchanging programme from Canada" she introduced herself in a more polite way, different from how we met.
"I'm Lee Jinki, also known as Onew. I'm the leader of SHINee. Nice to meet you Luna" our hands exchanged.
Luna is a talkative type of person once you know her. She talks a lot about her family, studies but nothing about her friends. "You have a bestfriend?" I was curious.
She nodded. "Only one. Her name is Casandra" she answered, chuckling. It seems like she doesn't really care. "She is the only one who understands me. She also helped me at the airport just now when I can't see due to my broken spectacles" she added. Her statement 'at the airport' makes me feel awkward. I got a feeling that she's the one.
"How did it broke?" I have to investigate her story to make sure she's the one.
"Some guy stupidly mistaken the floor and my spectacles. He stepped on it! I wish I could just kick his butt. But too bad I can't remember his face. If I ever meet him again, who knows what'll happen, right." And she smirked like, evilly.
Gulp- I think it's her. How should I tell her the real truth? I don't want my butt to be kicked!
"Actually..." I started. She looked at me. It made me even more nervous! "No, actually I... about your spectacles,"
She raised one of her eyebrows. "What about it? Wait, do you by any chance know who the culprit is?" asked her eagerly.
I gulped, and nodded. Luna got somehow excited that she jumped like a kid. "Who? Who? I'm all ready to kick his butt!"
I raised my hand, slowly. My head stuck on the ground, I can't seemed to face her due to the overloaded nervousness. She stopped jumping and stared at me.
I took a deep breathe. Right, here goes nothing. "Actually, I'm the one... who stepped on your spectacles. And I'm sorry," Upon that, I quickly bowed the 90 degree bow in front of her.
*Luna's POV*
I couldn't stop from looking all shocked and everything. Onew was bowing in front of me after revealing the culprit who stepped on my spectacles.
"So, you're the one who's gonna be kicked!" I shouted. I knew exactly that I was becoming the centre of attention in the middle of the shop. But who cares?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to step on it. I really didn't see it coming. I'm truly sorry. Please don't kick my butt, I still need it," he begged me. Ah, really...!
I don't know why I couldn't tolerate this one. I was outta luck because of the guy in front of me! He was still begging me to forgive him. "Okay, okay, quiet!" I finally said.
Onew looked at me with a pair of hopeful eyes. Nah, I won't be fool by that! "You want me to forgive you, is it?" I asked, in a much lower voice than before. In my mind, I already know what to do.
Onew began to smile and nod his head repeatedly. I smirked. And as quick as lightning, I stepped on his foot as hard as I could. "Here! For making my spectacles broken! Next time we meet, I'm gonna really kick your butt!"
As soon as I said that, I left him wailing. Must be hurt, 'cause I stepped his right foot with all my might. Well, serves him right!
[To Be Continued]
Finally we arrived to our hostel. The girls were whispering saying that the building next to our hostel looks like the place where SHINee stays. I rolled my eyes in disgust. Haven't they got enough with their 'oppas' or what ever it is called? They really need to take a chill pill.
A white van pass us as we were busy carrying our bags to our hostel. From far I can see someone was looking at me. Like stalking me... I quickly ran into our hostel hoping that the stalker won't have the nerves to follow me. Luckily I didn't fell. My luck is starting to co-operate with me.
"Luna, you look pale" said Casandra who is also one of the schools honored student. She is like a best friend to me. What, you think nerd students can't have a best friend?
"I think someone is stalking me" I was out of breath.
Her eyes were like going to pop after hearing what I said. "Really? What are you going to do then?" she asks. I don't really have a plan. Wait, what am I doing? I shouldn't be telling this to her. I myself am not sure if it was stalker or not. I can't see things clearly for gods sake! What's wrong with me today? Why am I accusing things?
"April fool!" I said, showing a big huge smile at her.
"April? It's November..." her response make me realize what a fool I am.
"Novembers fool!" I said. Casandra raised her left eyebrows like waiting for me to explain more. "Novembers fool is something I just made which you have to make two silly things in one time" I randomly explain to her.
She looked me in the eyes. "Hurry up and get your new spectacles. You're going to be a loony soon" she said sarcastically. Fine, I failed at lying. It's a good thing right?
Someone knocked the door and said Mr. Gordon was looking for me.
"Yes sir?" I said.
"What took you so long?" he asked.
"Err sir, I can't see clearly remember?" I answered his question. Duh- he was the one who wants to bring me to the shop to fix my broken spectacles and now he is asking me silly question? Awesome...
Mr. Gordon then burst into laughter. I can see that he was wiping his tears. Is it so funny?
"I'm sorry Luna, I forgot. So shall we?" he said and I can see that he was putting out his hand towards me.
I was trying to reach his hand but which one is it? There are so many hands!!! "Err sir, again I tell you.. I can't see very well"
Once again he laughed at me. Hooray I'm his new joker... Whatever.. He grab my hand and off we go searching for a shop that can fix my glasses. Mr. Gordon tells me his silly stories along the way. I was amazed to hear that he was once caught a robber with his bare hands! Isn't that cool or what? He even tells me that he once tried to make a new recipe of a popcorn by substituting the honey to chilli. Guess what happened next? Everyone who tasted his popcorn began to have a massive case of diarrhoea.
He can be funny sometimes despite his strict identity. I wonder why is he still single... Suddenly I bumped into someone and I fell.
"Mianeh~" that voice- how come that voice is so familiar?
"Luna, are you okay?" Mr. Gordon asked as he was trying helping me to get up. CRACK! "Oh! My back!" Ouch, that's not a good sign.

I was thinking if I should replaced her broken glasses with a new one. So that's why I'm going out, to the optical store which was just a stone's throw away.
"I'll be back in awhile," I closed the door and quickly went outside the apartment where we lived.

"My... my back," said the old guy. Ah! His back. I helped him to get up slowly.
"Are you okay, sir? Is there anything I could help you with?" I asked again. He nodded.
"My back is aching. You know, old man's stuffs," I wanted to laugh but I must respect him. He doesn't really looked that old, but he was talking that way.
"I'll escort you to the clinic and get a check up from the doctor," I decided. For a moment there, I've forgotten about the girl named Luna who was still down there, on the ground.

After Luna got her new cheap spectacles, it's time for us to head home- I mean hostel. We didn't hold hands anymore because Luna can see now. It was kinda scary when she looked me in the eyes just now.
"So this is how Onew looks like" she said while her eyes were looking at my auburn hair.
I didn't say a word. "Let's start everything all over again shall we? Hi I'm Luna, I'm here because of the school exchanging programme from Canada" she introduced herself in a more polite way, different from how we met.
"I'm Lee Jinki, also known as Onew. I'm the leader of SHINee. Nice to meet you Luna" our hands exchanged.
Luna is a talkative type of person once you know her. She talks a lot about her family, studies but nothing about her friends. "You have a bestfriend?" I was curious.
She nodded. "Only one. Her name is Casandra" she answered, chuckling. It seems like she doesn't really care. "She is the only one who understands me. She also helped me at the airport just now when I can't see due to my broken spectacles" she added. Her statement 'at the airport' makes me feel awkward. I got a feeling that she's the one.
"How did it broke?" I have to investigate her story to make sure she's the one.
"Some guy stupidly mistaken the floor and my spectacles. He stepped on it! I wish I could just kick his butt. But too bad I can't remember his face. If I ever meet him again, who knows what'll happen, right." And she smirked like, evilly.
Gulp- I think it's her. How should I tell her the real truth? I don't want my butt to be kicked!
"Actually..." I started. She looked at me. It made me even more nervous! "No, actually I... about your spectacles,"
She raised one of her eyebrows. "What about it? Wait, do you by any chance know who the culprit is?" asked her eagerly.
I gulped, and nodded. Luna got somehow excited that she jumped like a kid. "Who? Who? I'm all ready to kick his butt!"
I raised my hand, slowly. My head stuck on the ground, I can't seemed to face her due to the overloaded nervousness. She stopped jumping and stared at me.
I took a deep breathe. Right, here goes nothing. "Actually, I'm the one... who stepped on your spectacles. And I'm sorry," Upon that, I quickly bowed the 90 degree bow in front of her.
*Luna's POV*
I couldn't stop from looking all shocked and everything. Onew was bowing in front of me after revealing the culprit who stepped on my spectacles.
"So, you're the one who's gonna be kicked!" I shouted. I knew exactly that I was becoming the centre of attention in the middle of the shop. But who cares?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to step on it. I really didn't see it coming. I'm truly sorry. Please don't kick my butt, I still need it," he begged me. Ah, really...!
I don't know why I couldn't tolerate this one. I was outta luck because of the guy in front of me! He was still begging me to forgive him. "Okay, okay, quiet!" I finally said.
Onew looked at me with a pair of hopeful eyes. Nah, I won't be fool by that! "You want me to forgive you, is it?" I asked, in a much lower voice than before. In my mind, I already know what to do.
Onew began to smile and nod his head repeatedly. I smirked. And as quick as lightning, I stepped on his foot as hard as I could. "Here! For making my spectacles broken! Next time we meet, I'm gonna really kick your butt!"
As soon as I said that, I left him wailing. Must be hurt, 'cause I stepped his right foot with all my might. Well, serves him right!
