Jae intrigued him, though he couldn't quite place how, or why.
She wasn't particularly pretty in any conventional sort of way like her sister was. Jae’s hair was unkempt, and unpractically long-- long enough to make him wonder how she was able to see through those thick, black bangs, or if she even possessed more than half a face. And, it wasn't only her face that was covered all over, but the entirety of her body as well. (Which was a shame, really—he thought in an expectedly boyish manner. I imagine that she might be gorgeous underneath all that cloth and hair.)
He had been told once before that people hid the things they didn’t like.
But, what was there not to like he wondered. There were rumours-- but rumours were shadows of reality, more imagination and philosophy than substance and fact. Yes, this wondering, that was it. That was the reason he excused himself from his company, and then notwithstanding moved towards this overly-covered girl with overly long hair.
He wanted to know her for what she truly was.
