REMEMBER ME?...
part 46's
Vano and Kiara fell silent as soon as they entered Kiara's room and saw the sketchbook the girl was looking for was right on top of her bed, along with her other belongings.
Kiara breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at her sketchbook while saying a few words of gratitude. He then turned to Vano with a clumsy smile. “Thank you for helping me find him. It seems like someone is cheating on me today,” he said a little annoyed by the actions of anyone who said that his book was on Vano and made the man's activities disturbed.
Vano blinked his eyes a few times and turned to face Kiara. “Hm, equally.”
“It's almost night. You better go back to your room, too. At 10 we'll be back in Seoul, won't we?” ask Kiara later.
“Hm,” Vano just muttered in response.
“Then let me drive you to the door,” Kiara said. “As a thank you,” he added.
They walked back to Kiara's room. Vano exited Kiara's room, while Kiara was in the doorway.
“Good night, then,” Kiara said as she raised her hand.
Vano simply fell silent in response.
Kiara who realized that would not receive a meaningful response from Vano, then—with a little disappointed— moved to close the door. However, before the door was completely shut, Vano's arms held him back, making Kiara re-open the door of her room, a kind of reflex movement due to being surprised by what Vano did.
“What's up?” ask Kiara.
“Tonight at 7, I will be waiting for you in front of the inn. I heard the night view on Nami Island is very beautiful. I want to see it with you. Can?”vano asked as he stared right at Kiara's bead.
Kiara blinked her eyes a few times. She could hardly believe that Vano had just asked her out. Hey, dating?!
“O-oh, alright,” reply Kiara after a while.

Vano doesn't know what got into her so she dares to ask Kiara for a date. Wait, he didn't even realize this was a date! All he thought about at that time was that he had to take Kiara somewhere to talk that night. He only felt that he needed to talk to Kiara that night, as well as to apologize for having inconvenienced the girl last night. After all, many people say the atmosphere of the night on the island of Nami is very beautiful. He also did not want to miss that. Moreover, he did not want to miss it alone.
At night, at 7 pm, Vano was in front of the inn in a neat and thick suit. It seems that he is really serious about this impromptu dating event considering that he who is not too demanding of punctuality now comes earlier than the promised time. Vano doesn't like to wait, but this time, it will be a special exception. Because first; the mood is good, and second; he is waiting for Kiara—even though somehow the second reason seems so strange.
At 7 more than 10 minutes, in a slight hurry, Kiara walked quickly towards Vano who had been waiting for her in front of the inn. He stood beside the man while stabilizing his hunting breath as he went in a hurry and as he was facing Vano, also his first date.
“Have you been waiting a long time?” kiara asked as a breaker of silence once she met Vano.
Vano turned his head towards Kiara then glanced at her watch. “You're late 10 minutes.” Short talk.
“Already, it's okay,” cut Vano. The man smiled sweetly while looking straight at Kiara's bead. “How about we start now? While we have plenty of time before 10.”
“So? All right,” Kiara said short.
Vano frowned as soon as he heard Kiara's short answer. He then ruffled his waist while looking at the girl. “Yes, can you not be so awkward with me? Can't you be like before we had a fight? After we had a fight yesterday it felt like something had changed,” the protest.
“Really? But you are so to me too!” Kiara retorted.
Vano's hardened face finally softened. He had just been caught red-handed and he could not deny that he had been acting awkwardly towards the girl lately. When exactly can a Vano defeat a Kiara in a debate?
“Alright, I confess!” vano said quickly followed******hard* which gave rise to a white steam plume in front of his face. “I just feel embarrassed because last night I was helpless and you helped me do everything. That'sthat's all. I'm sorry for troubling you.”
Kiara who saw the apology from Vano, fell silent for a moment and then suddenly laughed. Making Vano frown and staring at him sharply, feeling clueless. Does what he just said contain an element of humor so that the girl laughs?
“Why are you laughing?” vano asked a little offended.
“Ah, sorry. It's just that, you don't have to feel too bad to overdo it like that,” Kiara said. “I did it voluntarily. Loving to help is my middle name, you know? Don't blame yourself. If you can't, don't push yourself. Accepting the help of others never hurts, right?In fact, I'm ready to help you again if this time you fall back.Well, you are ‘officially’ has become... ehm.
Vano was silent at the girl's explanation. He then smiled faintly when he heard Kiara say the word ‘engatanku’ while turning his eyes and cleared his throat. In fact, if Vano did not see wrong, the girl's cheeks had blushed.
“Yes, we're going for a walk, aren't we? It's getting late! Comeing! Which place do you want to visit first?” kiara exclaimed quickly, not wanting to drag on in the awkward atmosphere that re-emerged between them.

Kiara can hardly believe what she heard and saw when Vano asked her out a date a few hours ago. At that time he could not think much, so when Vano asked his willingness, the girl immediately agreed. When the man left and he closed the door to his room, Kiara was silent behind the door to just calm down so as not to scream at that moment, it's nice to receive a date from a person you've loved for a long time, Kiara would be lying if she said she didn't like Vano anymore. Moreover, a few days ago, it was always him who took the initiative and moved aggressively towards Vano while the man was instead apathetic.
Will his hard work and hope finally come true now?
