....

Hobin put his bags on the floor and stretched his limbs. He was rejuvenated after staying at the hospital but was glad to be home. To his surprise, Jina had also moved back on the same day and was putting her bags inside her house.

"Are you sure you should be coming back here?" he frowned as he entered her house. "What if there are more spirits?"

"I was just taken by surprise that time," Jina said. She put her bag on the bed and began to unpack her things. "The old man gave me more charms and he'll be purifying my house every week from now on. I don't know what happened that day…"

She glanced outside her window and to her relief, there were no spirits outside at that moment. It was safe. For now.

Hobin looked around as if to make sure the place was ghost free. He checked the kitchen and bathrooms for any anomaly but everything seemed to be in their proper place. It still puzzled him how Jina was attacked that day. Why did so many spirits turn up there? What was going on?

He sat on her bean bag couch next to her bed and tried to think.

"You know, this is kinda strange," he said. "You were able to kill a demon. The ghosts are attacking you for no reason. And the weird rituals are affecting me. Do you think our powers are somehow...related?"

"What do you mean?"

"Think about it. How many other people with special abilities do you know? Your sister and mother's powers are due to the fact that it's hereditary but even in a weird family, you're the weirdest. Meanwhile, I'm not just able to read the minds of living beings but also of the spirits if they possess others. You see dead people while I see the memories of the living. Don't you think that maybe we were given these powers for a reason?"

"Well…"

Jian would be lying if she said she did not think like that. Truthfully, she thought about that several times but she could not see any link in their abilities other than the fact both of them were strange.

"Forget it!" she sighed. "We'll have to keep working until we find a link or at least an explanation."

"I think I know mine," Hobin muttered.

"What was that?" 

"Nothing!" he claimed. Jina rolled her eyes and picked up a pile of clothes to discard in the laundry bag when something fell on the ground. Before Jina could grab it, Hobin picked it up and to Jina's chagrin it was her bra!

"Ehhh?" Hobin grinned. "Tinkerbell, you're a B-cup? Isn't that small?"

"Give me that!" she squeaked and lunged forward to grab it from him. But he was too tall, holding it right above her head.

"Tinkerbell really is tiny!" He teased her, watching her jump up and down as she tried to take her bra. "Tiny Tinkerbell!"

"Give me back my bra!" she yelled and jumped. But she lost her footing and grabbed on to Hobin. He stumbled and both of them fell on the bed. 

Jina was pinned underneath him, his strong pepper like scent hitting her nostrils and made her a little dizzy. Hobin was gazing at Jina, her long hair spread on the bed while he hovered over her. They were painfully close, their bodies grinding against each other. Jina's heart beats sped up and she blushed by his suddenly tender gaze. 

He raised a finger and removed a strand from her face. Her skin heated up at the touch and she looked at him with her large doe shaped eyes while her heart was thumping crazily against her chest. Hobin was also hypnotized by the delicate beauty in his arms, memorizing her features to his memory.

She was unattainable for him and he knew that. He knew that she loved his brother and not him but he could not keep himself away from her. After all, he moved heaven and earth to come back to her and fulfill his promise. No matter how much he tried to run away, he would end up coming back to her.

That's right, he realized. I can never run away.

Jina was still in a trance, waiting for something to happen. She was not able to look away from his handsome face, captured by his very essence. The attraction she tried to fight was only growing and despite their eight year age difference, she could not help wanting to be with him.

But did he want to be with her?

I guess not, she thought. But then...why is he looking at me like that?

His dark eyes were fixated on her as if there was no one else but them. Why? What did that mean? Did he like her? Or-

"I guess I am whipped," he whispered and suddenly swooped down, kissing her. 

Jina's eyes widened in shock when their lips touched, her heartbeats going off the roof. His soft lips tasted like caramel and she closed her eyes, kissing him back. She opened her mouth to smash their tongues together, intensifying the kiss. His one hand was clutching her silky hair, while the other one played with her fingers. 

She was breathless as they kept on kissing, her hands wrapped around his neck. His skin radiated the heat and passion which was suppressed for months, trapping them in that fiery moment. They were oblivious to the entire world, lost in the intensity of their kiss-

BANG! BANG!

The sound of someone banging on the door broke them out of their furore. For a few seconds, Jina and Hobin were frozen in that position, their minds finally back to reality. He quickly got off of her, both of them red and blushing.

"I...I…" Hobin stammered. For once, he could not find words to describe what happened and even Jina was not sure of what to do.

"Jina, are these bgs yours?" Mrs. Ahn, the landlady asked from outside. "These are blocking the way!"

"N-No!" Jina squeaked. "Those might be Hobin's. I-I'll tell him to clear them up…"

"Okay!"

They heard Mrs. Ahn's footsteps shuffling away. Jina and Hobin did not dare to look at each other, their minds still thinking about what happened a while ago.

"I-I'll go and unpack," Hobin mumbled, unsure of what to say. She was his brother's girlfriend and he should not have crossed that line. It was embarrassing and wrong.

Was she angry? Did he force a kiss on her? Hobin felt really guilty and did not dare to utter another word. Her face was hidden  behind her long locks and he was worried that she was going to hate him. This was not how it was supposed to be.

Jina did not reply when he left the apartment, shutting the door behind him. As soon as he was gone, she lay on the bed and touched her lips.

She could still feel his lingering warmth on it and slightly blushed. The kiss was unexpected and sweet. Even if her place was a mess at that moment, she could not help but think how perfect her first kiss was.

Or maybe it was because of him?

"Now I'm turning into a hopeless romantic!" she sighed and hid her face in a pillow. The butterflies in her stomach would not stop fluttering, thinking about Hobin and their first kiss. 

But the idiot still did not ask her out! Suddenly, she frowned at the thought. Was he going to ask her out on a date? What should she do? What should they do on a date? What clothes should she wear?

"What do I do?" she mumbled hopelessly.
