Sir, do you like Alphie? (2)

Alpheus' cheeks reddened after he said that. He fidgeted nervously and slowly slid his chair closer to Sir Junshik Hyung, "Um… S—Sir, do you— by any chance— have a feeling for me? M—Maybe we're soulmates since you're searching for me when you get charmed by a vampire, right?"

CLANK!

Cha Junshik's spoon dropped when Alpheus suddenly asked that question. 

He looked at Alpheus as if he was looking at a ghost, while Alphie lowered his head shyly, feeling hot on his face.

Cha Junshik was just too speechless to even say anything right now. How could this dog suddenly say that Cha Junshik liked him?! That was unscientific! 

"Um… Sir?" Alpheus asked. "I—I'm just asking, Sir…."

"H—How could that be?" Cha Junshik replied.

"Huh?"

"How— I mean, how could I fall in love with you? What makes you think like that?"
