*Onew's POV*
"Hahahahahah," Minho was the loudest to laugh when I told my members about what happened today.
"Serves you right. You lied to us about going to the convenient store in the first place. I've told you many many times not to lie, right?" scolded Key.
I grinned like an idiot. Well, everything happened so fast. After Luna stepped on my right foot, I was unable to move for a second. It hurts like death! I'm sure she have some kind of a superhero power. And I'm sure she was so angry at that time.
"Hyung, wake up! We're here!" Taemin shook my shoulder all of the sudden. I startled and unconsciously jumped, making my head bumped on the ceiling of the van. "Ouch! My head!"
Taemin giggled. This kid...! "Let's go, let's go! I'm hungry!" he whined like a little child. My heart quickly melted. I bet everyone will melt with his overloaded cuteness.
I jumped off the van and joined the other members into the restaurant where we're going to have our dinners. It is seldom for us to have dinner outside. We usually ordered take-aways.
"What would you guys like to order?" asked the manager. He was in a good mood tonight. Whenever he opens his mouth, it's gonna be something hilarious. I wonder why.
Our table was the loudest. All six of us - including the manager - talked at the same time, ordering our food. I pitied the waitress who looked all confused, but I couldn't help but laughing lightly. After finishing with the order, which took about 15 minutes, I heard some noises from the entrance.
I saw a bunch of students standing in front of the entrance, and were looking to our directions. They must've some kind of a function like annual dinner, maybe. I smiled seeing them waved at me. They must know me.
"It seems like they're all overseas students," said Minho, who happened to look at the students too. He smiled at them and I swear I can hear them shrieking at the entrance. They must be our loyal fans. How I wish I can interact with foreign fans someday.
"I wonder where they are from.." said Taemin as we were busy smiling and waving at them.
"Hmmm you can't really tell" I said.
"They are not Asians though" Key added. Well that statement can't be denied. Those students really look like they are not Asian. Those blonde hairs, big blue eyes and tanned skin really says it all.
"Are they from America? Ahh I wonder if they have met Emma Watson" with his cute eyes, Taemin managed to make us laughed. He pouted as we were laughing at his statement just now. Jonghyun quickly pinched his cheeks and said "Stop making faces"
Our nosiness came to an end when our food is served. The smell... ahhh so heaven~ Key took out his phone and took a picture of his dish. "I'm going to upload this on me2day" he said happily. It's nice to know that we can interact with fans trough me2day.
"Hyung, lets play a game!" said Taemin as he put his drink down. We all looked at him in a curious way.
"What game?" Jonghyun asked scratching his head.
Taemin smiled and grabbed a bowl full of salted peanuts. "The title of the game is 1, 2, 3 stop" he said.
"What kind of title is that?" Key asked taking some of the salted peanuts.
"I'm not finish yet. Hmm." Taemin pouted his mouth while thinking how to explained about the game to others.
"Yaa Taminnie don't make us playing such a nonsense game. You also don't know how to explain to us and stop making that aeygo face." Jonghyun said to Taemin.
Everyone laughed. Taemin continue make his aegyo on purpose . Minho pat Taemin's head and asked him to stop it.
"Ok guys. Lets eat now." said our manager. Our meal have been served on the table. I can smell my favourite lemon chicken.
"Taemin, let's continue your imaginary game after we eat." I said to Taemin.
"Okay! " he replied and make thumbs up.
* Luna's POV *
"Attention please! We will have a dinner tonight. The restaurant is at the end of the road. Please gather at the lobby at 8 pm. Is that clear? " said Mr. Gordon.
"Yes Sir!" We replied in unison.
"Good . Now you can go back to your room. Remember! '8 PM' or you will go to the restaurant by your own." Mr. Gordon left to his room. He was holding his back like an old man. Poor him.
We all were heading to our room. I felt really tired today. I am thinking about taking a nap. About the incident, It's really bother me. ARGHHH!! Lucky him I don't give him a kung fu kick. What was his group's name again? Shine..Shining..Shinee? Urgh! I don't care. Even if their fans want to kill me then go ahead. I learnt martial arts. Don't make me cut and break their legs..
***
"Oh My God!!! It's already 7:30 pm. I'm late!" I rushed into the toilet to washed my face.
I quickly changed my shirt. Running here and there to get my things.
"Why didn't Casandra wake me up! Is she my best friend or what? " I mumbled . People look at me. They would think that I must be crazy talking by myself. I don't care! In my head right know is Casandra. She should wake me up ! Didn't she ever noticed that I am not with her. If I meet her she better watch out!
Luckily that restaurant is not far away from our hostel. I can just walk to reach there. But this spectacles are very blurry at night. I can't see properly. Luckily I can see the restaurant's name from far away. I am thankful to the sign maker for making the sign so big and bright.
Phew~ I'm so relieved. Finally I reached safely at the restaurant. Now I have to find my schoolmates. Where are they? Honestly, I love memorising, reading, learning but searching? I totally hate it. There's a lot of people in this restaurant. So noisy and I can't focused on my searching.
But suddenly someone push out his chair and hit me. I was right behind his chair and fell over. The chair fell on me. I groaned in pain. The person who caused this accident and their friends help me to get up.
"Gwaenchana-yo?" Asked one of the guy who help me to get up.
Again! Korean! Do I looked like a Korean? Ask me in English already!
"Oh? Luna, are you okay? I'm so sorry." said one of the guy.
His voice sounded very familiar. I looked at him and shocked. It's Onew!
"You again?! Can you stop making me involve in trouble?!.." I am mad at him and continue to talk to him in anger.
His friends seems to be puzzled about this situation. One of his friend ask him something in Korean. I just walked away after that and found Casandra on her way to the restroom.
* Onew's POV *
Taemin is really creative! His '1, 2, 3 stop' game is so fun and entertaining. At first we didn't really understand and it sounds like so impossible but when you start playing it, its actually as easy as 1, 2, 3. No wonder the title is 1, 2, 3 stop.
"Minho stop it! You're going to kill us with your act" Key said, laughing his tears off. Minho makes a sudden move, actually a sudden funny move when Taemin shouted 'stop'. His right hand was on his head like patting himself and his other hand was like making a 'shhh' on his mouth.
"Yaa Minho, stop making funny faces!" Jonghyun added.
His face was blushing when we keep re-enact his funny face just now. "Guys stop it please" he begged. He showed his cute face.
It was so happening and so funny that my sangtae suddenly comes and attack me. I tried to make even more funnier act than Minho that I moved my chair a bit. But who would've thought that there was someone behind me!
"Omona! You hit a girl!" exclaimed Key. I quickly stood up and took off my chair from the girl. No, wait. I know this girl. It's Luna!
Every members started to swarm us. Our noisiness had attracted other people to watch what happened. "Gwenchana-yo?" asked Minho. He also lent a hand to get her up on her feet.
"Oh? Luna, are you okay? I'm so sorry," I apologized. This situation somehow reminded me about what happened today, when we met at the street. She fell on the ground too.
Luna widen her eyes and her face started to turn beet red. "You again?! Can you stop making me involve in trouble?!" She grunted angrily and stomped off to the restroom.
I blinked my eyes for a few times, not knowing how to react. Is this supposed to be a bad sign? And then Jonghyun tugged my shoulders.
"Yaa, hyung! Who's that girl? Do you know her?" asked him. The other members looked at me with the same desire.
And then, our manager interrupted. "Guys, we should go now. Everyone is starting to make assumptions about what happened. Let's go and we'll talk about this later,"
We followed the manager into our van and leave the place. In the van, everyone is waiting for me to open up the story about Luna, the poor girl who got pushed by SHINee's leader in a full house restaurant. Wait, wasn't that supposed to be a good news? Aish, nevermind!
"So... about that girl," I started with a silly grin. It seemed that they were all too curious to know about Luna. I sighed. Somehow, I feel like I don't want anyone else to know anything about her. I wonder why.
"She's a foreign girl," I said. I feel nervous all of the sudden. They all looked like FBIs!
"We know she's a foreign girl. How did you meet her? When?" asked Key one after another.
"Oh, oh! I know! You must meet her at the church. She looks like a church girl," said Taemin, giggling. "Nonsense!" I said.
"No, actually, I met her at the airport when we arrived here," I finally opened up. They all looked a thousand times interested in my story.
"Tell us more!" pleaded Jonghyun. He made his famous puppy face.
I pouted my face. I don't want them to know anything about her. If they know, then they would be interested in her too. If they were interested in her, then how about me? Wait, what was I thinking?!
"Oh, look! There are chickens having a race over there!" I tried to distract them, but none of them ever fall for my distraction.
"Mwol haedo, Onew sangtae~" Jonghyun sang the sangtae song along with the sound effects.
Soon after, we naturally discussed about something else. Phew, I pass!
*****
Three days later...
*Onew's POV*
I woke up really early today. I don't know why but lately I'm interested in jogging. All this while I thought jogging, exercising was really boring but lately it feels really amazing. And for some reason, it makes me stop thinking about the incident that happened at the restaurant.
"Hyung, it's still early" Minho was probably shock to see me getting ready for morning exercise, because as far as they know, I'm the type who likes to laze around in the dorm. Well not today!
"That's okay. It's a good time to get some fresh air" I said, hoping that he won't ask more questions. After the chaos scene where my chair accidentally fell on Luna, they all have been asking me some questions like; 'Where are you going?', 'Do you want me to accompany you?' and 'Are you okay?'. It's like they are trying to dig some secrets from me which I myself don't know what it is.
Luckily Minho just smiled before he left me alone at the front door. I closed the door and off I went to the park nearby. It's been a while since I enjoyed morning exercises. Today I realize so many beautiful things around me.
After I jogged around the park for about 3 rounds, I took a seat near a big old tree. The tree is so big that it covers me from the shining sun and also people can't really notice me. It's a good spot to take a rest and at the same time, hide.
As I was admiring the view in front of me, a group of students pass by. The teacher who leads them somehow looks familiar. They were busy snapping pictures here and there. Ahh I hope none of them saw me resting here. I put on my shades.
I open a bottle of water to drink but while I was drinking, I saw a school girl running towards the group of students. It seems like she was late and had to run as fast as she can. I almost squirt out the water that I've drank when I saw that school girl who was running almost tripped. It's kinda funny to see the funny moves she make, trying to avoid that pebble. I hope that bad luck sign will go away and turn into a good luck.
* Luna's POV *
I'm late again?! Sheesh what's going on with me? Why am I always late? When I woke up this morning, it was already 7:30 in the morning. Yikes, I'm 20 minutes late! I quickly change and grab my bag before I run as fast as I can to catch the others.
As far as I know, they are only going to snap beautiful morning pictures in a park near our hostel. Luckily I managed to chase them. There, I saw Casandra having fun posing in the pictures. Only God knows how angry I was at that time. What kind of a best friend is she, leaving her best friend in the dorm- TWICE!
Without realizing, I almost trip on a pebble. I hope no one saw me. It would be such an embarrassing moment if someone saw how I was avoiding that pebble.
"Casandra!" I shouted her name, not thinking about my surroundings.
She looked at me with a shocking look. I guess she didn't expect to see me here. "L.. Lun... a.." she stutter when I gave her an evil smile.
"Why didn't you wake me up?!" I scold her. She was screaming like crazy when I started to pinch her right arm. Serves you right!
"Ahh there's our sleeping beauty" a voice behind me really freaks me out. It was Mr. Gordon teasing me for being late. The others were laughing, including Casandra.
My cheeks were blushing when they all started to tease me. Is this really fair? It's not my fault that Casandra didn't wake me up! "I'm sorry sir" I quickly apologize, bowing 90 degrees. Wait- bowing? Since when I became a Korean? Argh this must be Onew's fault.
Speaking of Onew, I haven't seen him after the chair incident. Hmm, could it be that he's away for a moment? Huh? Why should I care?! He was the one who broke my glasses! And then I heard Mr. Gordon clapped his hands.
"Alright, everyone! We're going to have our breakfast at the cafeteria there. Please behave yourselves," said Mr. Gordon. "If any of you have forgotten anything, I'll give you 10 minutes to get your things. If you're late, then we'll say 'bye-bye'," He tried to crack a joke at the end of his sentence.
A few students went back to their rooms to get their belongings, which I wasn't supposed to know. I sat on one of the bench with Casandra. I looked at the park's surroundings while waiting. It looks eco-friendly enough. As far as I can see, Korea has a friendly unique culture.
"Hey, look! It's a squirrel!" shouted Casandra. Her voice had attracted other students to look at the direction where she pointed.
"Where? I can't see it," I tried to look at the squirrel too, but this cheap glasses was holding me back. I can't see a thing on the tree!
"There! It's sitting on the branch," said Casandra. I tried to focus on the branch, but darn! This glasses were no match for it.
"I can't see it," I said slowly. I took off my glasses and wiped it thoroughly, hoping it would give me a clearer vision. But when I wore it again, it's still the same. Sigh!
*Onew's POV*
I watched Luna from the moment I saw her just now. It was entertaining to be honest, watching her secretly. I could study her true behaviour.
Just now I saw her wiping her glasses, then something clicked on my mind. Her glasses! I've forgotten about her glasses! It's been three days since we went to the optical store. I should claim it today! Aigoo, how can I forgot such an important thing!
I quickly went back to my dorm. Wait! How should I give her the glasses if I didn't know where she's staying? Should I just ask her? No, no. Bad move. She's gonna kick me for sure if I appear in front of her again. But, what choices do I- Wait, I know! Mr. Gordon!
Mr. Gordon was watching a few Korean kids playing bubbles. Quick, Onew. Make a move. Construct a word. I walked slowly towards Mr. Gordon without making any of the students - especially Luna - noticing me. I tip-toed from behind the trees and hid behind the nearest bench to Mr. Gordon.
"Okay, what should I do now?" I conversed alone. I squatted there for a few minutes before Mr. Gordon suddenly clapped his hands. He sure likes to clap his hands to get his students' attentions.
"Everyone's here?" he asked loudly. Hearing the response from his students, Mr. Gordon smiled. "Now, let's go!" he said cheerfully. He is a cool teacher indeed.
They all started to follow Mr. Gordon across the street. I started to panic. "Wait, wait," Nobody heard me. "Eotteoke?"
"WAIT!!!!"
Just then, I heard something shouting. Everyone stopped and turned around. Phew, luckily someone had shouted. But, who was it?
I saw Luna checking every pockets of her cape, and her bag. Was she the one who shouted? I watched them from behind the bench. I bet if anybody saw me doing that, they might mistake me as a bandit.
"What is it, Luna?" asked Mr. Gordon. He stepped nearer to her.
"I... I forgot my wallet," said Luna. Her voice was shaking. She must be scared that Mr. Gordon will scold her.
The other students seemed angry. I heard her apologizing. Mr. Gordon sighed before giving her permission to get her wallet.
"I told you to check your belongings before going out the hostel. I even gave you 10 minutes to get anything you've forgotten earlier. Now look what happens when someone is being ignorant," nagged Mr. Gordon. I could see that he was crossed with Luna's behaviour.
I watched Luna as she ran towards a hostel near SM's building. Wait, that was our company's building. Ah! So that's where she's staying. A hostel near SM's building! No wonder we bumped into each other at the street the other day.
Okay, now that I know where she's staying, I could happily go and claim her glasses ^^
*****
*Luna's POV*
Knock knock! "Ugh, Casandra, open the door please," I sank my head in the pillow as soon as we got back from breakfast. After what I did this morning, I bet everyone hates me now. Sob.
Knock knock knock! The knocking has gone louder. "Casandra!" I raised my head just to see that there was no one in the room except me. I groaned and lazily walked to the door.
"Yes? Casandra's not here," I said as soon as I opened the door. Standing in front of me was Taylor, who's got her hair done last week. Wait, why should I talk about her hair.
"I'm not looking for Casandra," she said. I raised one of my eyebrows. "Mr. Gordon, he's already waiting for you downstairs,"
"Huh? Mr. Gordon? What does he wants?" I asked, panicked. What did I do wrong this time?
Taylor shrugged. "I don't know. You better go now, and fast," And she left.
I instantly took my sweater and ran out of the room. Am I doom?
"Luna!" Mr. Gordon was standing there, in front of the entrance. I panted.
"I'm sorry, I'm late, sir," I said, while trying to catch my breathe. The reason while I panted so hard, was that I needed to climbed down the stairs because the cleaner said the lift was broken. Not wanting Mr. Gordon to wait any longer, I had to run as fast as I can. Luckily I didn't trip.
"It's fine. I'll get used to it," he said half-jokingly. "Now, let's go,"
"Huh? Where?" I asked, dumbfounded.
"To the optical store, of course. You said that you can get your glasses in three days, remember? Well, it's been three days now," said Mr. Gordon.
"Ah, I see," We both walked down the streets. I looked around to see if Onew was somewhere around by any chance. Tch, what was I thinking. Of course he wasn't. Wait- Why do I suddenly think of him of all people?
We took a cab to go there. I told the driver where we're heading since I've been there before, without Mr. Gordon. While I was in the cab, I can't help thinking about Onew. I wonder why. But then I remembered the embarrassing moment where I talked with the pole, and he was the one who returned my broken glasses. I bet he laughed my face off after the incident. Aish..!
"We're here, Luna," My train of thoughts instantly stopped when Mr. Gordon tugged my shoulders. He paid the fee before alighted the cab.
Both of us entered the optical store and was greeted with a friendly worker. "Can I help you?"
Mr. Gordon answered on my behalf. "Yes. We came here before to fix her glasses, and we were told that we could get it done after three days. So we came here today to claim it,"
The lady worker seemed suspicious of Mr. Gordon. She went to the counter, followed by us. "May I see the receipt?"
I looked a little bit dumbfounded. What receipt? I tried to recall if there was any receipt that I received when I went here with Onew before. Oh yes! Onew took the receipt! Aish, now how in the world should I get my fixed glasses now?
"Luna, my name is Luna. I came here before with that idol guy," I said. The lady furrowed her eyebrows.
"Which idol?" she asked. I looked at Mr. Gordon, hoping that he could help me with this.
"The leader from SHINee," said Mr. Gordon.
"Ah~ You mean, Onew-ssi, right?" asked the lady. I nodded. What's 'ssi' anyway?
"If that's the case, then he had already taken the glasses earlier this morning. He said that he will give it to you later," said the lady again.
I frowned. "Huh? He already take it?" The lady nodded. I looked at Mr. Gordon who doesn't seemed to be panic at all.
"How about the payment?" asked Mr. Gordon calmly. What? Be panic a little, sir! It's my glasses for heaven's sakes! I need it!
"He already made the payment,"
"Well then, we gotta go. Thanks," Mr. Gordon lead me out the store.
"But, sir. How should we get the glasses from him?" I asked, a little bit angry. Onew sure likes to mess up with me a lot! He's gonna get it as soon as I find him!
"I don't know," answered Mr. Gordon, calmly as ever. Oh my god, please help me.
"But... but..."
"It's okay. We'll make a new one. How's that?" suggested Mr. Gordon with a smile.
"But... but..." I seemed lost. Oh dear, what should I do? You better be guilty now, Onew!
*****
*Onew's POV*
I looked outside the window. All I could see was a row of white fluffy clouds. It looks like a cotton candy. Taemin who sat beside me was already fast asleep the moment we got into the plane. We're going to Taiwan for a fan meeting today.
Right after I got back from claiming Luna's brand new fixed glasses, we - the SHINee members and the manager - went straight to the airport for our morning flight.
"Hahahahahah," Minho was the loudest to laugh when I told my members about what happened today.
"Serves you right. You lied to us about going to the convenient store in the first place. I've told you many many times not to lie, right?" scolded Key.
I grinned like an idiot. Well, everything happened so fast. After Luna stepped on my right foot, I was unable to move for a second. It hurts like death! I'm sure she have some kind of a superhero power. And I'm sure she was so angry at that time.

"She's a foreign girl," I said. I feel nervous all of the sudden. They all looked like FBIs!
"We know she's a foreign girl. How did you meet her? When?" asked Key one after another.
"Oh, oh! I know! You must meet her at the church. She looks like a church girl," said Taemin, giggling. "Nonsense!" I said.
"No, actually, I met her at the airport when we arrived here," I finally opened up. They all looked a thousand times interested in my story.
"Tell us more!" pleaded Jonghyun. He made his famous puppy face.
I pouted my face. I don't want them to know anything about her. If they know, then they would be interested in her too. If they were interested in her, then how about me? Wait, what was I thinking?!
"Oh, look! There are chickens having a race over there!" I tried to distract them, but none of them ever fall for my distraction.
"Mwol haedo, Onew sangtae~" Jonghyun sang the sangtae song along with the sound effects.
Soon after, we naturally discussed about something else. Phew, I pass!

Three days later...
*Onew's POV*
I woke up really early today. I don't know why but lately I'm interested in jogging. All this while I thought jogging, exercising was really boring but lately it feels really amazing. And for some reason, it makes me stop thinking about the incident that happened at the restaurant.
"Hyung, it's still early" Minho was probably shock to see me getting ready for morning exercise, because as far as they know, I'm the type who likes to laze around in the dorm. Well not today!
"That's okay. It's a good time to get some fresh air" I said, hoping that he won't ask more questions. After the chaos scene where my chair accidentally fell on Luna, they all have been asking me some questions like; 'Where are you going?', 'Do you want me to accompany you?' and 'Are you okay?'. It's like they are trying to dig some secrets from me which I myself don't know what it is.
Luckily Minho just smiled before he left me alone at the front door. I closed the door and off I went to the park nearby. It's been a while since I enjoyed morning exercises. Today I realize so many beautiful things around me.
After I jogged around the park for about 3 rounds, I took a seat near a big old tree. The tree is so big that it covers me from the shining sun and also people can't really notice me. It's a good spot to take a rest and at the same time, hide.
As I was admiring the view in front of me, a group of students pass by. The teacher who leads them somehow looks familiar. They were busy snapping pictures here and there. Ahh I hope none of them saw me resting here. I put on my shades.
I open a bottle of water to drink but while I was drinking, I saw a school girl running towards the group of students. It seems like she was late and had to run as fast as she can. I almost squirt out the water that I've drank when I saw that school girl who was running almost tripped. It's kinda funny to see the funny moves she make, trying to avoid that pebble. I hope that bad luck sign will go away and turn into a good luck.
* Luna's POV *
I'm late again?! Sheesh what's going on with me? Why am I always late? When I woke up this morning, it was already 7:30 in the morning. Yikes, I'm 20 minutes late! I quickly change and grab my bag before I run as fast as I can to catch the others.
As far as I know, they are only going to snap beautiful morning pictures in a park near our hostel. Luckily I managed to chase them. There, I saw Casandra having fun posing in the pictures. Only God knows how angry I was at that time. What kind of a best friend is she, leaving her best friend in the dorm- TWICE!
Without realizing, I almost trip on a pebble. I hope no one saw me. It would be such an embarrassing moment if someone saw how I was avoiding that pebble.
"Casandra!" I shouted her name, not thinking about my surroundings.
She looked at me with a shocking look. I guess she didn't expect to see me here. "L.. Lun... a.." she stutter when I gave her an evil smile.
"Why didn't you wake me up?!" I scold her. She was screaming like crazy when I started to pinch her right arm. Serves you right!
"Ahh there's our sleeping beauty" a voice behind me really freaks me out. It was Mr. Gordon teasing me for being late. The others were laughing, including Casandra.
My cheeks were blushing when they all started to tease me. Is this really fair? It's not my fault that Casandra didn't wake me up! "I'm sorry sir" I quickly apologize, bowing 90 degrees. Wait- bowing? Since when I became a Korean? Argh this must be Onew's fault.
Speaking of Onew, I haven't seen him after the chair incident. Hmm, could it be that he's away for a moment? Huh? Why should I care?! He was the one who broke my glasses! And then I heard Mr. Gordon clapped his hands.
"Alright, everyone! We're going to have our breakfast at the cafeteria there. Please behave yourselves," said Mr. Gordon. "If any of you have forgotten anything, I'll give you 10 minutes to get your things. If you're late, then we'll say 'bye-bye'," He tried to crack a joke at the end of his sentence.
A few students went back to their rooms to get their belongings, which I wasn't supposed to know. I sat on one of the bench with Casandra. I looked at the park's surroundings while waiting. It looks eco-friendly enough. As far as I can see, Korea has a friendly unique culture.
"Hey, look! It's a squirrel!" shouted Casandra. Her voice had attracted other students to look at the direction where she pointed.
"Where? I can't see it," I tried to look at the squirrel too, but this cheap glasses was holding me back. I can't see a thing on the tree!
"There! It's sitting on the branch," said Casandra. I tried to focus on the branch, but darn! This glasses were no match for it.
"I can't see it," I said slowly. I took off my glasses and wiped it thoroughly, hoping it would give me a clearer vision. But when I wore it again, it's still the same. Sigh!
*Onew's POV*
I watched Luna from the moment I saw her just now. It was entertaining to be honest, watching her secretly. I could study her true behaviour.
Just now I saw her wiping her glasses, then something clicked on my mind. Her glasses! I've forgotten about her glasses! It's been three days since we went to the optical store. I should claim it today! Aigoo, how can I forgot such an important thing!
I quickly went back to my dorm. Wait! How should I give her the glasses if I didn't know where she's staying? Should I just ask her? No, no. Bad move. She's gonna kick me for sure if I appear in front of her again. But, what choices do I- Wait, I know! Mr. Gordon!
Mr. Gordon was watching a few Korean kids playing bubbles. Quick, Onew. Make a move. Construct a word. I walked slowly towards Mr. Gordon without making any of the students - especially Luna - noticing me. I tip-toed from behind the trees and hid behind the nearest bench to Mr. Gordon.
"Okay, what should I do now?" I conversed alone. I squatted there for a few minutes before Mr. Gordon suddenly clapped his hands. He sure likes to clap his hands to get his students' attentions.
"Everyone's here?" he asked loudly. Hearing the response from his students, Mr. Gordon smiled. "Now, let's go!" he said cheerfully. He is a cool teacher indeed.
They all started to follow Mr. Gordon across the street. I started to panic. "Wait, wait," Nobody heard me. "Eotteoke?"
"WAIT!!!!"
Just then, I heard something shouting. Everyone stopped and turned around. Phew, luckily someone had shouted. But, who was it?
I saw Luna checking every pockets of her cape, and her bag. Was she the one who shouted? I watched them from behind the bench. I bet if anybody saw me doing that, they might mistake me as a bandit.
"What is it, Luna?" asked Mr. Gordon. He stepped nearer to her.
"I... I forgot my wallet," said Luna. Her voice was shaking. She must be scared that Mr. Gordon will scold her.
The other students seemed angry. I heard her apologizing. Mr. Gordon sighed before giving her permission to get her wallet.
"I told you to check your belongings before going out the hostel. I even gave you 10 minutes to get anything you've forgotten earlier. Now look what happens when someone is being ignorant," nagged Mr. Gordon. I could see that he was crossed with Luna's behaviour.
I watched Luna as she ran towards a hostel near SM's building. Wait, that was our company's building. Ah! So that's where she's staying. A hostel near SM's building! No wonder we bumped into each other at the street the other day.
Okay, now that I know where she's staying, I could happily go and claim her glasses ^^

*Luna's POV*
Knock knock! "Ugh, Casandra, open the door please," I sank my head in the pillow as soon as we got back from breakfast. After what I did this morning, I bet everyone hates me now. Sob.
Knock knock knock! The knocking has gone louder. "Casandra!" I raised my head just to see that there was no one in the room except me. I groaned and lazily walked to the door.
"Yes? Casandra's not here," I said as soon as I opened the door. Standing in front of me was Taylor, who's got her hair done last week. Wait, why should I talk about her hair.
"I'm not looking for Casandra," she said. I raised one of my eyebrows. "Mr. Gordon, he's already waiting for you downstairs,"
"Huh? Mr. Gordon? What does he wants?" I asked, panicked. What did I do wrong this time?
Taylor shrugged. "I don't know. You better go now, and fast," And she left.
I instantly took my sweater and ran out of the room. Am I doom?
"Luna!" Mr. Gordon was standing there, in front of the entrance. I panted.
"I'm sorry, I'm late, sir," I said, while trying to catch my breathe. The reason while I panted so hard, was that I needed to climbed down the stairs because the cleaner said the lift was broken. Not wanting Mr. Gordon to wait any longer, I had to run as fast as I can. Luckily I didn't trip.
"It's fine. I'll get used to it," he said half-jokingly. "Now, let's go,"
"Huh? Where?" I asked, dumbfounded.
"To the optical store, of course. You said that you can get your glasses in three days, remember? Well, it's been three days now," said Mr. Gordon.
"Ah, I see," We both walked down the streets. I looked around to see if Onew was somewhere around by any chance. Tch, what was I thinking. Of course he wasn't. Wait- Why do I suddenly think of him of all people?
We took a cab to go there. I told the driver where we're heading since I've been there before, without Mr. Gordon. While I was in the cab, I can't help thinking about Onew. I wonder why. But then I remembered the embarrassing moment where I talked with the pole, and he was the one who returned my broken glasses. I bet he laughed my face off after the incident. Aish..!
"We're here, Luna," My train of thoughts instantly stopped when Mr. Gordon tugged my shoulders. He paid the fee before alighted the cab.
Both of us entered the optical store and was greeted with a friendly worker. "Can I help you?"
Mr. Gordon answered on my behalf. "Yes. We came here before to fix her glasses, and we were told that we could get it done after three days. So we came here today to claim it,"
The lady worker seemed suspicious of Mr. Gordon. She went to the counter, followed by us. "May I see the receipt?"
I looked a little bit dumbfounded. What receipt? I tried to recall if there was any receipt that I received when I went here with Onew before. Oh yes! Onew took the receipt! Aish, now how in the world should I get my fixed glasses now?
"Luna, my name is Luna. I came here before with that idol guy," I said. The lady furrowed her eyebrows.
"Which idol?" she asked. I looked at Mr. Gordon, hoping that he could help me with this.
"The leader from SHINee," said Mr. Gordon.
"Ah~ You mean, Onew-ssi, right?" asked the lady. I nodded. What's 'ssi' anyway?
"If that's the case, then he had already taken the glasses earlier this morning. He said that he will give it to you later," said the lady again.
I frowned. "Huh? He already take it?" The lady nodded. I looked at Mr. Gordon who doesn't seemed to be panic at all.
"How about the payment?" asked Mr. Gordon calmly. What? Be panic a little, sir! It's my glasses for heaven's sakes! I need it!
"He already made the payment,"
"Well then, we gotta go. Thanks," Mr. Gordon lead me out the store.
"But, sir. How should we get the glasses from him?" I asked, a little bit angry. Onew sure likes to mess up with me a lot! He's gonna get it as soon as I find him!
"I don't know," answered Mr. Gordon, calmly as ever. Oh my god, please help me.
"But... but..."
"It's okay. We'll make a new one. How's that?" suggested Mr. Gordon with a smile.
"But... but..." I seemed lost. Oh dear, what should I do? You better be guilty now, Onew!

*Onew's POV*
I looked outside the window. All I could see was a row of white fluffy clouds. It looks like a cotton candy. Taemin who sat beside me was already fast asleep the moment we got into the plane. We're going to Taiwan for a fan meeting today.
Right after I got back from claiming Luna's brand new fixed glasses, we - the SHINee members and the manager - went straight to the airport for our morning flight.
"Good Afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Now we are arriving in Taiwan.Thank you for choosing our airlines and have a pleasure journey."
"Ahh finally we're arrived." I said to Key at the back.
While waiting for the other pessenger to get their luggage, I took the glasses from my bag. Now, how should I give her? We're going to be in Taiwan for 2 days. What if she also went to the optical store to get it? Will she get mad if she knows I've already claimed it?
[ To be continued]
