Chapter 46: Chapter 46
βDaniel's P.O.V.β
"That means you L-" I asked again to clear my doubts about Nuri's answer, but before finishing my word, I felt a pair of soft lips on mine.
My eyes widened at her sudden action.
"Nuri was kissing me? It wasn't an accident or for any persistence!
It was a damn freaking kiss. A kiss to show how much Nuri loved me." I smiled.
Then I pulled Nuri closer to me until her body landed on my lap. I gripped her tightly, making the kiss more intense.
But we couldn't stay in that position for long as I fell back on the bed. And Nuri ended up hugging me while lying over me. But our kiss continued. The incredible feeling I received by coming closer to Nuri was incomparable to anything else.
I felt I had the whole universe in my arms.
When Nuri finally moved away, my face flushed red like her.
Nuri buried her face in my chest, being shy.
I wrapped my arms around her.
My heart was beating like a drum. I guessed Nuri could hear my heartbeat.

βNuri's P.O.V.β
"I love you," I whispered, keeping my head on Daniel's heart.
His heart was beating at the same pace as mine. I didn't know that heart beating can sound like a piece of beautiful music.
"You are the only thing whom I love so much in this whole universe," Daniel said as he caressed my hair.
"You're pretty much everything for why I want to keep living and be the best version of myself."
My face was already red. It reddened more after Daniel's confession. I didn't know this is how much Daniel loved me.
"I'm sorry, my sickness ruined your plan to visit Jeju." Daniel coughed a little.
And I realised Daniel was still sick. I shook my head and tried to move away from the top of Daniel. But Daniel tightened his grip as he narrowed his eyes on me.
"What?"
"Daniel, you need to eat something and then take your medicine," I uttered the sentence with a concerned voice.
"I can take it later. Just stay like this a little more." Daniel scrunched his nose.
"Why the hell is he so cute?" My mind was playing games with me as it witnessed Daniel's cute side.
"Should I kiss him again?
"No, what if he thinks of me as a pervert? I had already kissed him shamelessly once." I started having conflicting thoughts in my head.
"Uuggghhh." The word blurted out of my mouth.
"What?
Did I do anything to annoy you?" Daniel's eyes worried, searching for the reason for my frustrating words.
"Ah...It wasn't meant for you." I mumbled.
"Hmm.. then for who?"
"Ah! You're so noisy. Leave me, Daniel. I need to buy breakfast for you." I tried to free myself from Daniel's grip, but he tightened the grip even more.
"What's the time? It looks like almost 12.
You didn't eat anything till now?" Daniel said with his slightly widened eyes.
"How can I? You were senseless since last night. Was I in a situation to think about eating anything?" I pouted.
Daniel chuckled.
"Well, now you know how I felt last night when you went missing."
I gasped.
"You're an evil human!"
Daniel burst out laughing, watching my grumpy face.
"Fine.. fine, Jagi.
Let's eat something then." Daniel said with a smile.
I glanced up at Daniel with confused eyes.
"What did you call me?"
"Jagi...
Why? You don't like it?" Daniel smiled the most adorable smile I had always adored.
"I love it," I said excitedly.
Daniel's smile widened.
"I have always heard K drama main lead males calling their girlfriends and wife Jagi!!
Omo!! I didn't know it sounded so cute." I added with an excited tone.
Daniel's eyes became annoyed.
"What? Because of K-drama, you like it?" Daniel's voice annoyed.
"Yeeesssss!!!" I replied.
"You.." Daniel uttered the words while staring at me coldly.
"What?"
Daniel didn't answer my question and pushed me off of him. I rolled down from the top of him, and my body rolled until I fell from the bed and my body hit the floor.
"Ouch."
"What the heck, Daniel!" I yelled.
Daniel poked his head from the bed and glanced at me with an annoyed face.
"Having a good view there?" Daniel asked while giving a fake smile.
"What was it for?" I narrowed my eyebrows at him, still lying on the floor.
"To wake you up from the K drama world. It's not a K drama." Daniel coldly uttered the sentence.
I rolled my eyes and stood up from the floor. Thanks to God that It didn't hurt that much, or I would have beaten up Daniel. But suddenly, Ray's screaming from last night flashed in my head. I gulped.
"I better not mess with him." I thought and gave a hesitant smile to Daniel.
"I'm going to buy food. I'll be back soon." I said, took my purse, and left the room quickly.
***********
I glanced at my phone wall, and it showed the time, 6 pm. Daniel was weak, and he again went to sleep after having his lunch and medicine. I walked around the room a little as I was already bored. But Daniel was sick and I needed to look after him.
Stretching my hands and back a little, I walked to the balcony. As I stood on the balcony, I noticed Ray's room was again crowded with his friends. They seemed like they just returned from somewhere after having a good day of enjoying themselves together.
I shifted my gaze to my right, from where the street could be seen. And at a little distance Some little shops. Behind them, some long trees were dancing with their branches by the strong breezes. And the sky was turning dark little by little.
"Hey."
A voice distracted me.
Turning my gaze to the opposite balcony, I found Ray leaning on the railing.
"Hey! " I replied.
"Enjoying nature." Ray looked around a little bit before turning his focus on me.
"Yeah. It seems like it's going to rain soon."
"Thank God, we covered most of the visiting places before evening." Ray smiled widely.
"That's great. Where did you go?"
"Jeongbang Waterfalls, Cheonjiyeon Fall, Oedolgae Rock. " Ray explained.
"Daebak! You already visited so many places."
"You can join us tomorrow if you want. " Ray suggested.
"I don't know. If Daniel gets better, we can join you."
"Ah, right! How is he now?"
"The fever is gone now. But Daniel is still weak. He needs some time to recover."
I said as I shifted my gaze again to the street, and I started watching the passer-by people and the nature view.
"That's great. Daniel Hyung will be better by tomorrow, I'm sure."
My eyes followed Ray's voice, and I found him giving me an assuring smile.
"Oh, And how are you? I'm sorry. I should have asked earlier." I bowed my head to show my sincerity.
"Calm down, calm down, lady. Do I look bad or sick? I am fine. Low-key, the injury didn't give that much pain how much you were concerned in the morning." Ray chuckled.
"Huh? That means?" I gasped at Ray's words.
"Yeah...I liked how your face was concerned and worried to see me with bruises."
"But those bruises appeared because you were hurt, right?"
"Wrong."
"What?"
"Actually, I have allergies from Lily, and before reaching your room, someone carrying a bouquet, including Lily, bumped onto me, and I guess that's when it started.
The red marks appeared after some time because of the allergy. But You and Daniel Hyung thought those were bruises.
Daniel Hyung didn't beat me that much if I tell the truth." Ray burst out laughing.
Ray's laugh attracted his friend's attention to us, and they glanced at us. I realised I was scolding Daniel for nothing. I should have thought about it that Daniel can't beat a person like that without any reason.
I heaved a sigh as I rubbed my temple in despair. Ray kept laughing at me.
I understood at that moment why Daniel kept asking why I was treating Ray. Daniel already knew the bruises on Ray's body weren't made by Daniel.
"Stupid me!" I murmured, realising how stupid I was.
I shifted my gaze back to the streets and tried to ignore Ray's stupid laugh. The rain started. Ray finally wiped his tears of joy and said, "It's raining. Now go inside, or you'll catch a fever too."
I rolled my eyes as I kept staring at the street. People were rushing inside the shades nearby. And opening umbrellas. But all of a sudden, a man caught my eyes.
He was not moving from his place, and he was staring in our hotel's direction. That man was dressed in black, from his cap to shoes. He seemed mysterious. I tried to see his face by leaning in from different angles.
"What are you doing now? Rain yoga?
I heard Indian people love to do yoga?" Ray scoffed.
I scowled at Ray, "Can you shut up for a second?"
Then I concentrated on the man in black again.
"Just tell me what is there to look at with so much interest!" Ray asked, following my gaze.
I rolled my eyes again as I kept trying to take a good look at that man's face. But my whole body trembled suddenly when the man glanced up towards us, and his eyes met mine for a long second. I noticed his face. He was the same person who was kidnapping the girl in the alley that day, who was following me in every hotel to kill me!
I felt my heart becoming heavy, and I couldn't breathe properly for a few seconds.
"It can't be! It can't!!" I screamed in fear.
