CHAPTER 51
The whole time of walking was silent. No one dare to open a topic.
“Sooyoung-ah!” you suddenly heard a familiar voice called you that broke the silence. It was Qri. She was smiling.
“Ohh.. Qri..”
“Hello Sooyoung and Luhan. Are you going to the class now? Can I go with you two?” she asked.
Both you and Luhan looked at each other. You’re the first one who looked away and faced Qri. You smiled, “You both go first. I need to use the rest room.”
You then whispered to Luhan, “Take this chance to have a talk with her. I’ll go first.”
You then faced Qri again, “I’m sorry but I really need to use the rest room now.” She nodded, “Okay. Go ahead.”
You glanced once more at Luhan before you run off. As you finally runaway, you glanced back again. You saw them already walking on the way to the classroom and also TALKING TO EACH OTHER.
You heaved a sigh, *It hurts to give you to her but I’m not selfish so be happy with her, ne?* you smiled then entered the rest room.
You didn’t pee or anything. You just wash your hands and looked at yourself at the mirror. You smiled at yourself, *I’m happy... or not? But I need to.*
You stayed a little bit at the rest room before you completely went to your English class. You took a deep breath before you enter the classroom.
Right after you opened the door, your heart breaks. You saw Luhan smiling at Qri and so was her.
Slowly, you walked towards your seat with a heavy heart. *I should be happy now. It’s all my fault anyways..*
As when you sit on your place, he didn’t even gave you a glance. He was still talking to Qri. *I guess he didn’t notice me..*
“Ohh! Sooyoung, you’re here now!” Qri said. You turned to them and forced a smile, “Ohh yeah..”
“When did you came?” Luhan asked.
*So.. he really didn’t notice me?* “Just now.” you replied.
Just then, the teacher came. The 3 of you straightened up and focus in front. In the middle of the class, you glanced at Luhan. He was focusing on the teacher.
Suddenly, Qri’s pen fell on the floor all of a sudden. She was about to get it but Luhan did it for her. He was smiling as he handed it to her. Then I saw Qri blushing as she took it. “Gomawo.”
“No problem.” he replied, still smiling. Qri smiled back before facing the front again.
Before you burst into tears, you immediately faced your front to prevent seeing anything that will break your heart.
Little did you know, Luhan’s smile faded immediately as Qri focus at the class again. He glanced at you but you weren’t looking. You’re only focusing at the class.
He silently sighed. *I guess you really don’t have feelings for me. I just kept assuming the fact that it will never happen. I should stop liking you now. From now on, I’ll convince myself to like Qri instead. I think that would be good for the both of us.* he then focus on the class also.
---
“Class dismissed.” the teacher announced. It’s now time for lunch.
You faced Luhan, “Luhan, I can’t go with you for lunch. I still need to talk with my other teachers of my first 2 classes for not attending the class yesterday and also today. Can you tell about this to my friends?”
Luhan, “Okay. I tell them.”
“Gomawo.” after you said that, you fixed your things.
“Umm.. Luhan, if you don’t mind, can I eat lunch with you?” Qri asked. Luhan glanced at you, “Of course, you can.”
“I’m going now.” you said without looking at them then completely leave the classroom.
“Kaja?” Luhan asked Qri. She beamed and nodded. With that, the both of them headed to the canteen.
“Luhan hyung!” Sehun waved at him. Luhan glanced at Qri, “Come on, I’ll introduce you to them.” Qri nodded and smiled.
“Ohh.. you’re with the new student.” Baekhyun said with an amused smile.
“Yeah. She’s Qri, I and Sooyoung’s classmate in English class. Qri, they’re my friends.” Luhan introduced them one by one. “Also, these are Sooyoung’s friends.” he aslo introduced them one by one.
“Annyeong haseyo! Qri-imnida. Nice meeting you all of you.” she said with a smile.
“Woah! Yepeoda!” Baekhyun commented that made Qri chuckled. Chanyeol hit his head, “You looks like a fanboy on what you were saying.”
Baekhyun pouted. All of them laughed at him.
Luhan turned to Qri, “Come on, let’s sit.” Qri smiled and nodded. Then, they sat at the two empty seats.
“Hyung, where’s Sooyoung noona?” Sehun asked. “Yeah, where is she?” Yuri also asked.
Luhan told what you said earlier. They all nodded in understanding. “Oh wait Luhan, didn’t you wak—” Yuri didn’t even her sentence because Luhan cut her off.
“Sleeping is her habit so maybe that’s the reason why she missed her first two classes.”
“Eh?” Yuri was confused.
“Come on, let’s just eat. Don’t waste the time.” Luhan snapped. Everyone nodded in agreement except for Kris.
“I forgot that I need to borrow a book at the library. I have to go now.” Kris turned to Qri, “Sorry if I can’t eat with you. Maybe I can eat with you next time.”
Qri shool her head, “Ani, it’s okay. I think you’re in a hurry now. Maybe that’s very improtant.”
Kris smiled, “Okay then.” he looked at the others, “I’m off first.” with that, he left.
---
Your talk about your teachers ended immediately. Since they already knew you, they didn’t let you explain yourself anymore. It was okay with them whatever your reason is.
You felt relieved about that but now, where are you going to go? Your talk with your teachers only took 5 minutes so you still have 40 minutes to eat lunch but you don’t want since Qri will probabaly with Luhan right now.
You decided to just stayed at the roof top instead to see them happily together.
You rested your arms at the railings as you peacefully looked at the scenery in front of you.
“I thought you were talking to your teachers right now?” a sudden voice came up.
You turned to your left,
“Kris..”
CHAPTER 52
“How did you know that I’m here? Did you bring someone with you? Why aren’t you eating lunch with them?” you asked Kris continuously.
He only chuckled. You frowned, “Yah, did I say something funny?”
He laughed even more. You raised an eyebrow, “Are you crazy? Laughing without a reason?”
Finally, he stopped laughing and faced you. He smiled, “Now I know.” he said. “Mwo?”
He shook his head the stared at the scenery in front, “You like him, don’t you?”
“Eh?”
“You like Luhan, right?” he asked as he faced you. You looked away, “Of course, I like him. He’s my bestfriend.”
“Oh come on, we both know what I mean by that question. You like him as a guy, am I right?”
“Stop asking me that kind of nonsense question.”
“How come my question is nonsense? My friend is involved here and also you that considering as my friend too. Will you just answer my question? You only need to give me a YES and a NO answer. Is that really hard for you to choose between those answers?”
You remained silent. *It’s actually hard, Kris..”
“Okay, I’ll repeat my question. Do you like Luhan as a guy?” he repeated.
Still, you remained silent.
“Okay, I think I already know the answer. Silence means YES, right?”
You let out a sigh, “Yes, I like him.” you said in a low voice.
Kris looked at you in surprise. He didn’t expect that you will admit it. “Then why did you let him to be with Qri?” he asked.
You closed your eyes, “I like him, I really like him and I hate the fact that I’m giving him to Qri but I need to.”
“What? Why? Are you sick or something?” he asked.
That question made you chuckled. “You’ve watched many dramas, Kris. I’m not sick okay. I have a healthy body. Tsk!” you rolled your eyes.
“Then why do you need to do that?” “It’s a secret.”
He raised an eyebrow. You smiled, “I can’t say it to anyone. You should contented now that you know that I like Luhan.”
He rolled his eyes, “I already knew about that.”
“But how did you know?”
He paused and slowly faced you. He smiled, “It’s a secret.” You made a face, “Psh!”
“Do you really want to spend the whole lunch time here?” he suddenly asked. “That would be better for me.”
He nodded in understanding.
“You, aren’t you going to eat lunch with your friends?”
“Oh right! I’ll go ahead now.” he said and started to walk away. “Kris, wait!” you called.
He stopped looked back at you, “About me liking Luhan,” you bit your bottom lip. You were about to continue your sentence but Kris did it for you.
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep it as a secret.” You smiled, “Gomawo.”
“No problem.” he was about to go but you stopped him once again. “Wait!”
He looked back again, raising an eyebrow. “Can I ask you once more?” you asked. He nodded, “Go on.”
“Why did you went here?” you asked. “Because I want to be sure about your feelings for my friend. Honestly, I didn’t expect that you would admit it.” he chuckled, “You know what?”
You looked up at him. He smiled, “You’re the one that I want for Luhan not that Qri girl.” after he said that, he completely left.
You titled your head, *He wants me for Luhan and not Qri? This is the first we had a serious talk but he chose me than Qri? Why? Didn’t he notice that Luhan likes Qri? Psh! I really don’t understand that guy.*
You smiled, *Well at least he wants to support me though I already gave up to fight for him...*
---
All the classes were ended. All the students headed to their respective dorms and you were one of them.
As you were walking on the way to the dorm, an arm suddenly linked on your arm.
You turned to your side, “Ohh.. Qri..” She smiled, “Can I walk with you again?” she asked. You nodded, “O-Of course.”
“Did you already talk to your teachers?” she asked. You smiled and nodded, “They understand.”
“That’s good. I thought they will give you punishment. Good thing, they didn’t. I was worried about you.” she said. You smiled, *She’s really nice. I won’t regret chosing her to be with Luhan.*
“You don’t have to worry. I’m alright. You, how’s your time with Luhan?” you asked.
“Good. I’m very happy that he was nice to me and I’m glad that we’ve got a chance to spend time together.” she said with a giggle.
*I shouldn’t be ask her about this. I only hurting myself more and more..* you sighed.
“Wae? Are you sick?” she asked worriedly. You immediately shook your head, “Ani. I was just tired a bit.” you excused.
“Ohh.. So sad, I really wanted to tell you how happy I was..” she sadly said. “It’s okay. You can still tell me about it while we’re walking.” you snapped. *Aigoo! What did I said again?*
She smiled, “Cheongmal?” You forced a smile and just nodded. You don’t have a choice anymore, you couldn’t say no.
“You know what? Actually, I’m very surprised when Luhan approach me when you went to the rest room this morning. I can’t believe that he talks to me. I was so speechless that time but he said that I can speak and don’t be shy. Then I suddenly chuckled by that statement. It was simple but when Luhan said it, I can’t help it but smile. I never felt this kind of feeling before. Only Luhan did this to me. That feeling made me happy.”
You decided to remain silent. *She really is happy..*
“Also, when my pen suddenly dropped on the floor, he took it for me. I thanked him and he smiled at me. That time, I know I’m blushing. Oh my gosh! I think I’m in love..”
You froze, *She already fell in love with him...*
“Sooyoung? Are you okay?” she asked when you suddenly stopped on walking that made her stopped also.
You snapped out your thought and faced her. “Oh.. Gwenchana. It’s just that, my head is aching.” you said as you touch your forehead.
“Is that so? Let’s hurry then so you could rest now.” she said. You just nodded.
After few minutes, the both of you finally reached the dorm. “Go inside now and rest. You’re making me worried. Take care of yourself, ne?”
You only nodded and forced a smile. She gestured you to go inside. “Gomawo, Qri.” you said.
She chuckled, “You don’t have to. I didn’t did anything. Just go inside and rest, ne? I’m going now, see you tomorrow.”
You smiled and nodded then opened the door. You were about to enter the dorm but suddenly stopped. You glanced at Qri once more, *Don’t be too nice to me. You’re making it hard for me to hate you. I should really give up now...*
With a sigh, you completely entered the dorm.
CHAPTER 53
The next morning, you woke early. You decided to prepare breakfast for your friends and also for yourself.
As you were preparing, Yuri suddenly went out from her room. “Good morning!” you greeted with a smile.
“Woah! You woke up early. That was new.” she said that instead of greeting you back. You rolled your eyes, “That’s not new. Psh!”
“Whatever! But how come you woke up early?” she asked.
*I actually having ahard time to sleep last night..* “Psh! What kind of question is that? I just woke up, okay. Oh! Also, I’m preparing for our breakfast.” you said.
“Can I help?”
“Of course! That would be nice of you.” you stated. She rolled her eyes, “Psh!” then both of you burst into laughter.
“What’s going here?” Seohyun and Yoona suddenly came out. You and Yuri looked up.
“We’re just preparing for our breakfast.” you said. “I want to help.” Yoona said. “Nado! Nado!” Seohyun beamed.
Both you and Yuri glanced at each other then faced the two again. You both smiled and nodded.
The 4 of you started to prepare the breakfast all together. You actually miss this, having time with your friends.
*I may not have a love life right now well at least I still have my friends with me..* you smiled and focus on preparing the food.
After the preparation, the 4 of you eat the brealfast all together then went to school all together also.
*As much as my friends are with me, I’ll try my best to be happy everyday.*
---
Kriiiiiing! Kriiiiiiiiing!
It’s now time for the 3rd class. English class was actually your favorite class before but now, not really. Honestly, you really don’t want to attend this class anymore but you can’t. You can’t lost your scholarship.
With a heavy sigh, you headed to your English class even it’s against to your will.
As expected, Luhan was already there. He was talking with Qri again. You didn’t bother to get their attention anymore so you just straightly headed to your seat and silently sat on it. You glanced at them but they seems busy on their conversation.
You turned to the window beside you, trying to cheer up yourself. No one outside. The view was silent as how your heart silently beeting for Luhan.
Minutes later, the teacher came. All you just did is only focus at the class. Luckily, you successfully make it.
As the class ended, you decided to not escape anymore. You decided to grab a lunch with Luhan and the others and also with Qri. She’s now part of your friends anyways.
The 3 of you headed to the canteen all together.
“Qri, sit here beside me!” Baekhyun called as the 3 of you arrived at the canteen. You saw Chanyeol hit Baekhyun’s head. You chuckled and shook your head because of them.
Baekhyun pouted, “Psh! Quit that jealousy, will you?!” he then looked at Qri’s direction again and smiled as he waved her over.
*Their attention is now with Qri. Did they even know who I am?* you sadly thought.
Suddenly, you felt someone tapped your shoulder. You turned to your side and saw Kris. “Ohh.. Kris..”
“Come on, the food is waiting. Do you want them to get mad at you?” he said. You chuckled, “Nice joke.”
He smiled, “Let’s just sit, okay?” You smiled and nodded, “Araseo Duizhang.” He glared at you but then smiled. With that, both of you headed to the table and sat next to each others.
Luhan frowned at the sight, *Since when did they get close to each other like that? Did I missed something? Aish! Whatever!* he turned to Qri, “Come on, let’s sit.” She smiled and nodded.
Both Luhan and Qri sat next to each other, in front of you and Kris.
AWKWARD.
You turned to Kris and whispered, “Help me please..” Kris turned to you and blinked. “Distract me.” you whispered again.
“Yah, what are you talking about?” Luhan snapped. You faced him, “Eh? Uh-oh.. Nothing. Nothing.”
Luhan rolled his eyes, “If you say so..” You ignored Luhan and turned to Kris again and gave your expression that you were begging him.
Kris didn’t responded on that instead he do something. He took some foods and placed to your plate, “Eat all of that before the food voluntarily run from you.”
After he said that, you couldn’t help but laugh. That simple made you forgot that Luhan was right in front of you. Not fully though but you were happy that Kris was trying his best to distract you.
You smiled at him, “Gomawo.” He smiled back, “You’re always welcome.” he winked. You chuckled.
“Yah, what’s happening here? Don’t tell me, the both of you are dating?” Suho questioned at you and Kris. Luhan suddenly choked by that question. Kris smirked.
You panicked and immediately handed him a glass of water. Qri also did at the same time as you.
Luhan stared at the glass of you were holding and also to Qri’s. He took the one that Qri’s holding instead of yours. Your heart sanked. Slowly, you put down the glass of water back on the table.
“We’re not dating, so stop questioning us. We’re just friends, close friends.” Kris suddenly said. You turned to him. He just smiled. You smiled back, *Gomawo..*
You turned to Luhan. Qri was gently patting his back. “Gwenchana?” she asked, worried. You saw Luhan nodded and smiled at her, “I’m perfectly fine. Don’t worry.”
You quickly looked away and started eating your food.
Luhan glanced at you but he only saw you eating. He silently sighed and also focus on his food.
---
It’s been already a week ever since that incident happened. You were still ignoring Luhan and so did him. You always saw him with Qri, happily talking to each other.
You didn’t bother them anymore since you think this would be better for you. Plus, you don’t want to see them together.
Buth then, Qri was always wanted to walk with you on the way to the dorm after class. As much as you wanted to reject her, you couldn’t. You really don’t want to know about Luhan and Qri doing together but Qri was always telling you about it everytime she walked together with you.
One day, after class. You received 2 text messages. 1 from Luhan and 1 from Qri. *What should I open first?*
You decided to open Qri’s mesaage first.
to: Sooyoung
I have to do something. I can’t walk with you today so don’t look for me. Let’s just see each other tomorrow.
from: Qri
You heaved a sigh, *That was a relief. I really can’t take all she was always saying though I can’t stop her.*
Then you open Luhan’s message.
to: Sooyoung
Meet me at the roof top after class.
from: Deer Lulu
You raised an eyebrow, *Am I really the one he texted or this is only a wrong sended message?* to make sure, you did what the mesaage said.
As you reached the roof top, you saw Luhan back facing you. “Luhan..” you called.
He turned around and faced you. He was smiling. You titled your head in confusion. *What’s with him?*
Slowly, he approached you and to your shocked, he hugged you. “Luhan..” you whispered.
“Gomawo..” you heard him said. “Eh?”
“Sooyoung-ah, I think I’m in love..” you heard him said.
Your heart beats faster than normal. *He’s in love? With who? And why is he hugging me? Wait, is he referring to me?* before you could ask who it is, Luhan spoke again.
“No, scratch that. It’s not only ‘think’ because I’m really in love. Sooyoung-ah, I’m in love with Qri..”
All of a sudden, a tear automatically fell from your eye.
CHAPTER 54
Luhan released you from the hug when he noticed that you weren’t responded. His eyes widen as he saw a tear on your cheek. “Sooyoung, why are you crying?”
You didn’t say a word but only stared at him. Luhan stared back. *She tell me that you want to stop then I won’t hesitate to stop this. Please Sooyoung, just say a the magical word...* Luhan hoped.
Slowly, a smile came up to your face. It was actually fake but you did your best to make it real in front of him. “I cried because of joy. I’m very happy for you.”
Luhan’s face fell but he didn’t let you notice it.
He faked a smile, “I’m glad to hear that from my love tutor. Also, I’m very thankful to you for teaching me on how to fall in love with someone. I already confessed to her and she accept it. I’m so happy. This is all happened because of you so thank you..”
For some reason, the last words hit you. It feels like he was telling you that it’s your fault. *Well he’s right. It’s all my fault. I lost you because of what I have done.*
You forced a smile, “Yeah. You should really thank me. I’m proud to have a student like you, Luhan.”
He just smiled.
“I have to go now. Let’s celebrate on some other time, ne?”
He only nodded.
You smiled once more before you turned around. As the time you turned around, the smile on your face faded just instant. You then headed to the dorm with a heavy heart.
The time seems so fast. You were already right in front of the dorm. You stopped there for a moment before you reached out the door knob and slowly twisted it to open the door.
“Sooyoung-ah!” “Woah! You’re early today.” “That’s new.” you heard your friends greeted you.
You only stared at them as you were still at the main door but it was already closed. You didn’t say anything and just continued to stare at them.
“Sooyoung-ah..”
Yuri didn’t even got a chance to finish her sentence because you already run and hugged her as you burst into tears. “Sooyoung, what happen?”
“Yuri..” you sobbed. “If you have a problem, you can tell us.”
“I lost it.. I lost the dare...” you said between your cries. Yuri release you from the hug to face you. “What do you mean?”
You stared at her for a moment then another tear fell dorm from your eye, “Luhan was in love with Qri.”
“Eh? How come you lost the dare?” -Seohyun
“You actually did your dare well. You succesfully did it, Sooyoung.” Yoona said.
You shook your head, “Ani. I lost the dare. I lost it. I fell in love with him. I fell in love with Luhan without me noticing it.” then you burst into tears again and dropped your body on the floor.
“I’m sorry. I lost it. I’ll do punishment but please give me more time to do it.” you sobbed.
Yuri joined you on the floor and hugged you, “I’m sorry Soyoung. Actually, I also lost the dare. I didn’t date any nerd guy. It’s just that, I really can’t date them.” You didn’t say a word and just continued crying.
Seohyun also joined the two of you and also cried, “Mianhe.. I also lost the dare. I failed in one of my math quizzes.”
Next is Yoona. She cries even more than Seohyun and Yuri. “I’m really sorry but I’m dating Kai.”
The 3 of you made a stopped on it and slowly turned to face her. “You were dating Kai?” Yuri asked.
“How come we didn’t notice it?” -Seohyun
“Actually, we started dating since the trip in China.” Yoona confessed. “Omo! You one lucky girl!” Yuri commented. “I envous you.” Seohyun added.
You saw Yoona blushed. You looked away as another tear fell from your eye. Your friends immediately noticed you.
“Sooyoung, stop now.” Yuri whispered. You wanted to obey her but your eyes disobeyed.
“Let’s not talk about the dare. Just erase it to your mind. Why don’t you tell him your feelings?”
“I-I can’t. Qri already accepted his feelings. They’re already together.” you said between your sobs.
They hugged you again to give you a comfort though it wasn’t enough but they it will calm you a bit.
The 4 of you stayed like that for a long time. Soon, you all headed to your respective rooms to take some rest. That night, all you did was to cry.
---
It was another morning again. Another morning means another day but it seems like yesterday because heart was still broken. You couldn’t forget the fact that Luhan was already in love with Qri.
You attended your first 2 classes. When the third class finally came, you decided to not to attend bacsue you still can’t face Luhan yet and even saw him with Qri. You chose to stay at the library than seeing them together.
You also skipped lunch. You ask your friends a favor to make an excuse for you. Good thing, they understand you so they agreed.
Kris was kept calling you but you just ignored it and decided to turn off your phone so no one can ever disturb you.
After lunch, you attended your remaining classes. Luckily, you didn’t see Luhan nor Qri wgich made you felt relieved.
You were on your way to the dorm when you suddenly saw Luhan... with Qri.
Your froze. You couldn’t move or say a thing. You just stared at them.
Luhan was also staring back since he was in front of you and only few meters from you as Qri was standing next to him while her arms linking at Luhan. Seems like Qri didn’t notice you because she was facing Luhan like she was saying something to him.
Suddenly, she noticed that Luhan wasn’t listening at her anymore. He followed his gaze. A smile automatically formed on her face as he saw you. She was about to call you but there’s a guy suddenly wrapped an arm around your shoulder.
It made you jumped a little. You turned to your side but to your surprised, the guy kissed you on the lips but it was only a short kiss though. “Miss me?”
“Myungsoo...”
CHAPTER 55
You were now lying on your bed, still awake. You were staring at the ceiling as you’re mind still processing about what happen earlier. It was really unexpected.
*Eoteokhae?*
:: flashback ::
“Miss me?” your eyes widen as you saw Myungsoo right in front of you with a wide smile on his face.
“Myungsoo..” that was all you can say because of shock.
“Omo! Sooyoung-ah, is he your boyfriend?” Qri suddenly asked as she approach the two of you along with Luhan. You met eyes with Luhan. For some reason, his expression was hard to explain.
You looked away but didn’t reply to Qri’s question. But then, you heard Myungsoo spoken. “Yes, I’m her boyfriend, I’m Kim Myungsoo by the way.”
You were actually shocked by Myungsoo’s answer as you looked up at him. You open your mouth to say something but Luhan interrupted. “If I’m not mistaken, you’re not her boyfriend anymore but her ex-boyfriend now.”
That statement made you faced Luhan. He was intensedly staring at Myungsoo. “Am I right?” Luhan added. “We didn’t break up so I’m still her boyfriend. And I’m sorry, may I know who are you?”
“I’m Sooyoung’s bestfriend.”
Myungsoo turned to you with a confused expression. Before you could explain to him, Luhan spoke again. “I become his bestfriend when you’re gone for 2 years. You don’t even know how lonely she was when you’re gone and now, you’ll just came back and think that you’re still her boyfriend?”
“Stop.” you said.
“Why would I stop? Wae? Don’t tell me, you’re going to accept him again? Are you stupid? He only breaks your heart, Sooyoung. Wake up!”
You didn’t say a word and remained silent. Luhan faced Myungsoo again, “Neo! You better leave her alone. You broke her heart once and don’t make a step to break it once again. You don’t deserve her, you kmow that?!”
“I said stop.” you spoke again. “No. I’ll never stop until this bastard will realize what he have done to you.” Luhan replied as his eyes were still staring intensedly at Myungsoo.
“I said stop it, Luhan.” you turned to Myungsoo, “Come on, let’s talk somewhere.”
You were about to leave but Luhan grabbed your wrist. Qri was shocked but she decided to remained silent the whole time.
“You still have a chance to avoid him so do it now. He will only make your heart broken if you choose to be with him again.” Luhan said.
“Luhan please.. I want to talk to him.. alone.” you tiredly said without looking at him but Luhan still didn’t let you go.
Myungsoo narrowed his eyes to Luhan, “Don’t you hear what she had said? She want to talk to me alone and we need to do that.”
Luhan glanced at you. “Luhan please..” you said once more. With that, Luhan slowly let go of your wrist though he wanted you stay by his side instead of Myungsoo.
You looked up at Myungsoo, “Kaja.” then you started to walked away from Luhan. Myungsoo followed you.
“Gwenchana? You look pale.” Qri said to Luhan after you amd Myungsoo left. “Come on, I’ll walk you back to your dorm” Luhan said.
“Eh? I thought we’re going on a date?” she asked. “You see, the gate was about to close. We can’t go out anymore or we’ll get caught.”
“But you told me you have an idea how we can go back here even the gate is already closed.” Qri said. “Yeah but I realized that it’s not good for you. You’re new here and it’s not good for your record if you did that. Come on, I’ll walk you back to your dorm.”
Qri didn’t protest anymore and just nodded. With that, Luhan silently walked her back to the dorm. Until they reached the dorm, Luhan didn’t say a word. Qri bid him ‘goodbye’ and ‘goodnight’ but Luhan only reply a nod to her and left.
---
You and Myungsoo are now at the roof top. Myungsoo was very happy that you chose to talk to him.
You were near the railings when Myungsoo suddenly gave you a back hug. Your eyes widen in surprise, “Myungsoo..”
“I miss you Sooyoung-ah. I miss being with you, with the only girl I love.”
You closed your eyes to prevent a tear to fall down from your eye. Slowly, you removed his arms around your waist and faced him. “Listen, Myungsoo. It’s because I chose to talk to you doesn’t mean I forgot all the things that happened between the both of us. I actually want to talk to you because I wanted to ask you some questions.”
He sighed, “Okay. I’m ready to answer those questions. Ask me now.”
“What are you doing here? Why did you came back?”
“I’m here because of you. I transferred here to be with you again. I don’t know what to do anymore without you by my side. My two years without was like a nightmare. It’s slowly killing me..”
“Then why did you leave without saying a word?”
“Sooyoung, I know I gave you pain by doing that but I regret it. My parents forced me to study in Japan and whenever I protest about it, they wouldn’t let me. I tried to escape but you know my parents, they have powers to make me follow their will. But they noticed that I became miserable the time I went to Japan. I can’t blame myself because I’m actually moserable without you. My day wasn’t complete without you, Sooyoung.”
“Still, you should at least mention this to me before you leave instead of leaving like a stupid. You just dumped me, you know that?!”
Myungsoo took your both hands, “We both know that wasn’t true. I didn’t dumped you, okay?”
You removed your hands from his grip, “But it seems like one. Myungsoo, you left without me telling this and now you’re back and saying that you’re still my boyfriend? What do you think of me? A toy that if you wanted to play again, you’ll back and get it?!”
“No Sooyoung, of course not. I don’t treat you like that. For me, you’re the most special girl that I want to be by my side.. always.”
“Then why do I feel like you didn’t treat me like that?”
Once again, Myungsoo held both of your hands. “Sooyoung, can you give me a chance to prove it to you?”
You were shocked by his sudden question but yoy only remained silent. Then he spoke again, “I will do everything just to make your heart accept me again. If you want me to court you again, I’ll do it again like what I’ve done before or maybe better than before. Please Sooyoung, give me another chance..”
He was very sincere as says those words. You could feel it and see it by your own. Though you hate him because of what he did to you two years ago yet there’s still part of you that wanted to give him another chance.
You stared at him for a moment, “I need to think first. I’m already tired, I want to rest.” you said. “Okay, I’ll walk you to your dorm.” he offered.
“No. I want to be alone. I want to think carefully. Please give me time to think, Myungsoo.”
“Ohh.. Araseo..”
With that, you started to walk but then you herd him spoke again that made you stopped, “Tomorrow, I’ll start to prove myself to you. I’m not expecting for your ‘yes’ again but I’ll do everything just to make you say ‘yes’ again. Jalja, Sooyoung-ah..”
After hearing that, you didn’t said anything and just continued walking again until you reached the dorm.
:: end of flashback ::
*Waaaaa! Eoteokhae? Why would he need to make me confuse like this? Aigoo! I don’t know what to do anymore..*
You let out a heavy sigh and closed your eyes. Soon, you finally fell asleep.
CHAPTER 56
It was already sunrise. Your eyes slowly open as the sun rays hit your face through the window. It took you some seconds before you fully open your eyes.
Slowly, you sat up and jumped off from your bed. You took a bath and wear your uniform before you exited your room.
Your friends was already there. They’re silently eating at the dining area. You decided to approach them.
“Good morning girls!” you brightly greeted them.
They didn’t responded instead they gave you a look. Their expression was hardly to explain. It was unreadable for you.
“Yah, what’s with you all? Stop looking at me like time. It seems like you guys wanted to kill me with those stares.” you joked.
Still, they continued staring at you like what they’re doing the time you approach them. “Yah, what’s the matter? Did something happen?” you asked.
“What do you think?” Yuri questioned back. “Okay, I give up. Just spill it. I definitely don’t have an idea.” you said as you sat next to Seohyun.
“Don’t lie to us. Why didn’t you tell us?” Yoona asked. “Tell you what? I don’t understand.” you replied as you faced Seohyun with a confused expression on your face.
“Why didn’t you tell us that Mungsoo came back? Are you with him again? I he your boyfriend again?” Seohyun asked.
You froze. *They knew? How?* “Wait, how did you guys know about Myungsoo’s comeback?” you asked.
“He’s here.” Yuri replied shortly. Your eyes widen, “Mwo? He’s here? Eodiseo?” you looked around but no sight of Myungsoo can be seen around the dorm.
“Behind the main door.” Yoona replied. “You mean.. in front of the dorm?” you asked. She nodded.
You quickly stood up and were about to approach the door but you heard Yuri spoken. “You can’t open the door until you answer our questions.”
“Questions?”
“Is he your boyfriend again? Are you hiding your relationship with him from us? Why did you accept him again?” she continuously asked.
“No, no and a no. That’s my answer. Can I go now?” you asked. “No.”
“What?! I’ve already answers those questions.” you snapped. “Why are you in a hurry? After what he did to you, you still love him huh? Then what about your feeling with Luhan?”
You were stunned by her question. You actually don’t have an answer by that question but you still gave her a reply.
“I didn’t say I’m chosing Myungsoo over Luhan though I know Luhan doesn’t have feelings for me. I’m not going to accept Myungsoo’s feelings for me that fast either. I just wanted to see how can he prove his love to me. I didn’t gave him a chance yet though he wanted to start today. I know you guys are only concern to me but please.. I need your supports for this. Just let me see what he can do.” you said.
“Is your decision final now?” Yoona asked. You nodded.
“I guess we don’t have a choice now girls. I think she’s already finalize this. All we can do is support her.” Yoona said.
You smiled at her.
“I’ll go with that idea then.” Seohyun said. You smiled at her too. Yuri sghed, “Do I have a choice?” she asked.
You smiled even wider, “Gomawo.” you said and hugge them one by one.
“Psh! Just go. Myungsoo is waiting for you. Go to him before someone caught him outside. You know that boys aren’t allowed to be here, right?” Yuri stated.
You nodded, “Thank you again.” you grabbed your bag then you run towards the door and quickly open it. There he was, back facing you.
“Myungsoo..” you called. Slowly, he faced you. He was holding a boquet of flowers. A smiled automatically formed on his face as he saw you.
“Sooyoung-ah!” he called as he run towards you. He was about to give you a hug but you step backwards and looked away.
Myungsoo stopped on what’s going to do. He already got it. Still, he tried to smile and instead of giving you a hug, he handed you the flowers. “White roses for you. Aren’t white roses your favorite flower?” he said.
You stared at it for a moment. *He still remembered..* you couldn’t help but smiled.
“You looks better when you’re smiling.” he suddenly said. Your smile faded as you cleared your throat. “Where did you get that?” you asked, looking away.
“I ordered it for you. I know these flowers will make you smile than seeing me, right?”
The moment he said that, you could feel that he was hurt. You stared at the roses in front of you then slowly took it.
You looked up at him. You saw him smiled. *He’s still the Myungsoo I know. he knows the things that will make me happy. For some reason, I miss this..*
“I already accept this. Aren’t you leaving now?” you asked in normal tone. He shook his head, “Ani. I’m actually here to fetch you. I want to go to the class with you.”
You raised an eyebrow, “Are you saying that we’re in the same class?” you asked. “All your classes are the same with me.” he replied with a smile.
“MWO?! You did that in purpose, don’t you?” He only smiled.
That smile already answered your questioned. You let out a sigh. “You’re still the Myungsoo I know. You’ll go wherever I go.” you whispered but loud enough for him to hear it.
He chuckled, “It’s because my heart is with you. If a person doesn’t have a heart, it means he will die. Since you already stole my heart and I don’t think I can still get it back, I don’t have a choice but to follow where my heart located which is you.”
*Those words was like a funny words to others but I found it sweet.. I don’t want to feel this but my heart voluntarily feels it..* you thought.
You rolled your eyes on him, “Whatever! Let’s just go!” you said and started to walk. Myungsoo smiled and followed you.
While the both of you are walking, you suddenly noticed the students looking at the both of you. *Aigoo! Why are they looking at us?*
“Woah! So sweet.” “Look, he even give her a boquet of flowers. How sweet.” “And the boy is so cute. Isn’t he’s Kim Myungsoo? The Guitar Prince two years ago?” “Yeah but wait, look at the girl. She’s Han Sooyoung, right? She was he’s ex-girlfriend.” “Omo! Don’t tell me, they got back together?” “Well, they actually look good together.”
You bit your bottom lip and just lowered your head as you continued walking. But Myungsoo noticed your worried expression. He grabbed your wrist that made you stopped. You looked up at him, confused.
He smiled at you before facing the students around. “Listen, everyone! I and Sooyoung weren’t together anymore. But..” he faced you, “I’ll do everything just to make her fall in love with me again.” then he smiled at you again.
A sudden smile formed on your face unknowingly. Until now, he never fails to make you smile.
The atmosphere filled with ‘Ayyyiiiieeeee’ coming from the students around.
Little did you know, Luhan was watching the scene from afar. He was narrowing his eyes to the both of you as he grip his fist tightly.
CHAPTER 57
After the scene that happened earlier at the corridor, both you and Myungsoo headed to your first class. Myungsoo decided to sit on the empty seat in front of you since the teacher haven’t arrive yet to assign him for a seat.
Myungsoo faced you while sitting in the front seat of your seat. He was staring at you.
You lowered your head, “Yah, quit staring. You’re not sitting properly.” you snapped. Even you were lowering your head, you could still see that he was smiling at you. It made you feel uneasy.
“Do you already eat breakfast?” he asked, totally ignoring what had you said. You were about to answer him but your stomach already answered it for you by making a sound.
You heard him chuckled. You bit your bottom lip, *How embarrassing..*
Just then, you saw him placed a sandwich on your desk. You looked up at him in surprise. He smiled, “I know you can’t eat because of my sudden appearance so I brought you a sandwich. Go and eat it before the class starts.”
“Myungsoo..”
He chuckled, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to ask for a payment. That’s free.” he said.
You stared at the sandwich for a moment. “Your stomach won’t satisfy if you only going to stare at the sandwich.” he said.
You chuckled, “Gomawo.” you said as you slowly get the sandwich and started eating it. Still, Myungsoo didn’t take off his eyes from you.
“Will you quit staring? I can’t eat properly..” you snapped. “It’s all your fault.” he said with a pout.
“Eh?!”
“Because of your beautiful face, I can’t take off my eyes from you. Tsk!”
You blushed.
“You’re more beautiful when you’re blushing.” he commented. You lowered your head, “Stop teasing me..”
He chuckled, “You’re still the Sooyoung I know. You are easily blushing by my words..”
You rolled your eyes then stared at him, “And you’re still the Myungsoo I know. You never failed to make me smile.” you said.
The moment you finished your sentence, you met eyes with Myungsoo. You stared at each other for a moment until someone called you.
“Soyoung-ah!”
You broke the staring contest and looked at the door. Yoona was now walking towards her seat which is next to yours.
“I brought you a sand—” her words was cut off as she saw the sandwich that Myungsoo gave to you. “Where did you get that sandwich?” she asked.
“Eh?” you looked down and realized that you were holding a sandwich, “Oh this? Myungsoo gave this to me.” you said and glanced at Myungsoo. He was still staring at you.
Yoona looked at Myungsoo, “Yah, quit staring. It seems like you’re melting her by your stare.”
Finally, Myungsoo broke his stare. He looked at Yoona, “Oh Yoona! Long time no see..” he said.
Yoona rolled her eyes, “Psh! You’ve only noticed me just now?” Myungsoo chuckled, “What can I do?” he then turned to you, “Your friend’s beauty hynotizing me..” he smiled at you.
Again, you blushed.
Yoona looked at you. She rolled her eyes, “Whayever!”
Just then, the teacher finally arrived. She gave Myungsoo a signal to step in front. Myungsoo politely obeyed the teacher as he walked in front.
“Mr. Kim, please introduce yourself.” Myungsoo nodded and faced the class. “Annyeong haseyo! Kim Myungsoo-imnida. I became a student here teo years ago and now came back to make Ms. Han Sooyoung fall in love with me again.” then he winked at you. “That’s all thank you..” then he bowed.
The classroom became loud because of the squealed after they heard Myungsoo’s confession.
*Aigoo! Why did he say that? He shouldn’t be..* you thought a you lowered your heard.
You felt Yoona elbowed you, “Don’t fall for that.” she whispered. “Don’t worry, I won’t.” you whispered back with a smile.
“Okay Mr. Kim, please take your seat in front of the girl named Han Sooyoung.” you heard teacher annoiced with a giggle.
You rolled eyes, *Even my teacher supported him.. This is insane..*
With that, Myungsoo walked towards his seat as he smiles at you. You just stared him.
As Myungsoo sat in front of you, you heard him spoke. “Stop blushing because of me..” he said in a low tone with a light chuckle.
You then touch your both cheeks, *Aigoo! Am I really blushing? Omo! Embarrassing..*
You heard him chuckled again, “I was just kidding but now I’m sure that you’re going to blush after I said this, You’re beautiful than anyone else..”
He’s right! Your face turned red after you heard him said that. *Aigoo! Yoona, I know I said that I won’t fall for that but why do I feel I am?*
The first class ended silently. You say ‘goodbye’ to Yoona before heading to your next class with Myungsoo. From now on, you need to use to this. Use to be with Myungsoo all the time since you’re in the same class as him until the end of class hours.
For the 2nd class, it also goes the same as yoir first class except for the presence of Yoona.
The time goes by immediately. Now, it’s time the 3rd class. As both you and Myungsoo are heading to your 3rd class he suddenly held your hand.
You gasped in surprise as you looked at him. He wasn’t looking at you. He was focusing on the way with a smile on his face. You broke your stare at him and focus on the way too.
You were about to remove your hand from him but you suddenly saw Luhan and Qri. Qri was linking her arms to his. It made you stopped that also made Myungsoo. Luhan and Qri did the same.
The 4 of you are now facing each other and did some staring contest...
CHAPTER 58
“Oh! Soyoung-ah!” Qri broke the ice as she dragged Luhan in front of you and Myungsoo. “Hello! Myungsoo, right?” she asked as he looked at Myungsoo.
Myungsoo nodded. “I’m Qri, by the way. And this is Luhan, my boyfriend.” he introduced.
You looked up at Luhan and he’s also staring back at you. Luckily, you already put the flowers on your locker so he won’t see it yet you started to feel uneasy because of the atmosphere around you. Your ex was now standing next to you while holding your hand while the special person who’s now holding your heart was in front of you.
“Come on inside. The class will start any time soon.” you said as you looked away. “Oh yeah. Kaja!” Myungsoo lead you inside the classroom, still holding your hand.
Qri and Luhan followed.
You’re now sitting on your place as Myungsoo suddenly sat next to you. You stared at him. It’s not because you were shocked that he sat next to you but because he’s sitting in Luhan’s seat.
Just then, you sudden heard a voice spoken. “Excuse me but you’re sitting on my place.”
You looked up, it was Luhan.
“Is that so? Oh mian.” you heard Myungsoo said as he stood up and sat in the seat in front of yours instead. With that, Luhan sat on his seat.
Myungsoo did the same again. He’s not sitting properly and just facing you. “Yah, you still doing this..” you whispered.
He smiled, “I can’t help it. I really miss staring at your beautiful face.” he whispered back but loud enough for Luhan and Qri to hear it.
“Aigoo! You’ve got a sweet boyfriend, Sooyoung.” you heard Qri said. You open your mouth to explain but Myungsoo already did.
“I’m not YET her boyfriend but I’ll do everything for that to happen.” he said as he smiled at you. You forced a smile.
You glanced at Luhan but he’s only looking in front. Your face fell. But then you noticed his hands. He was gripping his fist tightly. You frowned, *What is he into?*
Suddenly, your teacher came. It’s now time for Myungsoo to introduce himself again. He introduced himself in front of the class just like how he did it on the your first two classes.
You just lowered your head as you heard your classmates squealed because of Myungsoo’s sweetness. As for Luhan, you don’t want to see his reaction anymore or you will just disappoint.
As Myungsoo came back, he whispered. “You’re free to blush again, beautiful.” Well, he never failed to make you blush because you did. “Yah, stop calling me like that. I’m not into it..” you whispered back.
“Then get use to it from now on, beautiful..” he said. You bit your bottom lip to prevent yourself on smiling but you failed. You couldn’t help it and end up smiling widely.
Little did you know, Luhan was listening to the conversation. He wanted to explode but he couldn’t. As much as he wanted to punch Myungsoo, he can’t because you’re not his property and he thinks that you’ll never be..
---
Kriiiiiiing! Kriiiiiiiiiing!
The bell finally rang. Third classes are now ended and it’s now time for lunch.
“Kaja?” Myungsoo asked. “Umm.. Myungsoo, I’m going to eat with Luhan and Qri.” you said that made Luhan looked at you.
“Is that so? Then can I go too?” Myungsoo asked. You paused and turned to Luhan. He didn’t say anything. “Okay.” you shortly replied to Myungsoo.
With that, the 4 of you stepped out of the classroom then headed to the canteen.
Minutes later, all of you finally arrived at the canteen. “Sooyoung noona!” Sehun called as he waved at you.
You smiled. “Who are they?” you heard Myungsoo asked. “Luhan’s friends. They are famous. They group is called EXO.” you replied.
“Oh yeah! I remembered. I knew one of them.” he said. You looked up, “You do?”
He nodded, “The guy called Lay. He can play guitar too. I remembered we played guitar together in one event here in school two years ago. Don’t you remember?”
You frowned, *He played guitar with Lay? How come I couldn’t remember?*
Myungsoo chuckled, “You know why? Because you’re too busy focusing on me that’s why you don’t noticed him. Psh! You silly..”
You looked up at him, “I did?”
He nodded, “It’s because you couldn’t take off your eyes from me.” the he winked. You rolled your eyes but laugh after a while.
Accidentally, you met Luhan’s eyes but he quickly looked away. You frowned, *Weird..*
“Come on, my friends are waiting.” Luhan said. With that, the 4 of you approach EXO and your 3 friends that were already sitting at the usual place.
You introduced Myungsoo to them. EXO warmly greeted him. Myungsoo is right! He really knows Lay. You can see it the way Lay talked to him.
You sat next to Kris as Myungsoo on your other side. Luhan in front of you as Qri in front of Myungsoo. Okay, it was awkward positions.
As the time Myungsoo sat, your friends remained silent and just focus themsleves in eating.
“Yah, what happen to you girls. Why did you guys become silent all of a sudden?” Xiumin asked.
No one answered him. Yuri, Yoona and Seohyun only continued eating silently.
“I guess they’re still mad at me.” you heard Myungsoo whispered. You let out a sigh, “You can’t blame them. Even me, I’m still mad at you.” you wgisered back.
He pouted cutely.
*Cute.* you thought but you only rolled your eyes on him and secretly smiled as you lowered your head.
“Don’t mind the girls. Let’s just eat.” you heard Kris said. You glanced at him but he avoided your gaze and started his food.
*Is he also mad at me? aigoo!* you let out a silent sigh and continued eating.
“I need an explanation.” you suddenly heard Kris wgispered. You glanced at him, “Eh?”
“What exactly going on?” he asked. “I can’t explain here.” you said, lowering your voice as you took a bite on your food.
“Later.” he said. You didn’t reply at him anymore and make yourself busy on your food.
Suddenly, Myungsoo placed a steak on your plate. You turned to him and titled your head in confusion. “Eat a lot. I love watching you eating as much as how I love to stare at your beautiful face.” he said with a smile. You bluhed immediately.
“Woah! Look at her, she’s blushing!” Baekhyun commente with a playful smile on his face. “Psh! She wasn’t blushing. It’s because today is hot. Right noona?” Sehun asked.
You just smiled a little. “See.. She smiles because I’m right.” Sehun said as he made a face at Myungsoo.
Myungsoo only chuckled, “Seems like that kid likes you.” he whispered to you. You chuckled, “I like him too.” you whispered.
“MWO?!” Myungsoo reacted in a bit high voice that made him caught EXO’s, Qri’s and your friends’ attention.
You laughed at his reaction. “I was just kidding!” you snapped, still laughing. “Woah! She’s laughing because of him.” D.O. said.
“No she’s not!” Sehun, Kris and Luhan said in unison.
That reaction made you stopped on laughing. All of you got stunned by that. Your friends suspiciously looked at Luhan and even to Kris.
Qri slowly stared at Luhan, surprised. Myungsoo taken a back by the sudden reaction. EXO raised their eyebrows by their 3 friends.
“Ohh.. I don’t think she’s laughing because of him.. That’s all.” Luhan said and continued their food again. Kris cleared his throat, “Same goes with Luhan.” he explained.
Now, all of you looked at Sehun’s direction. Sehun made a face, “She wasn’t laughing because of him. That’s all.” he then continued his food.
His friends laughed at the maknae except Luhan and Kris.
You cleared your throat, “Let’s just continue our food. Lunch break will end anytime soon.” you said. Eveyone nodded and did what you said.
As all of you finshed the food, you heard Kris whispered. “Text me later. I need your explanation.” then he stood up and headed back to his class.
With that, all of you went to your separate ways. No one from your friends talk to you. They’re still mad at Myungsoo that they couldn’t approach you.
As you and Myungsoo arrives at the classroom, you immediately texted Kris. You explained all that happened on your text message.
After some minutes, he texted back.
to: Sooyoung
I think all I can do now is to support you. BUT be sure that you’re going to make a right decision. This will be for your own love life. Always remember that.
from: Kris
---
The time quickly goes by. The school day is now ended. It’s now time to go back to the dorm.
“I’ll walk you to your dorm.” Myungsoo offered. You wanted to reject his offer but he already walked ahead you. You let out a sigh and followed him.
In the middle of the walk, you suddenly saw Luhan walking on the opposite direction. “Oh. Luhan, right?” Myungsoo asked.
You saw Luhan nodded. “Did you walk your girlfriend to their dorm too?” Myungsoo asked.
Luhan glanced at you. You lookes away. “Yes, I did.” you heard Luhan said. That answer broke your heart.
“I’m doing the same with Sooyoung too.” Myungsoo said. Luhan nodded, “Okay. I’ll go first.” with that, he completely left.
Myungsoo turned to you, “Kaja?” You forced a smile and nodded. With that, you both continued walking until the both of you arrived in front of your dorm.
“Thanks for walking me here, Myungsoo.” you said. He smiled, “Anything for you, beautiful.” he replied.
You were spacing out so you totally ignored what he said. You turned around and was about to enter the dorm but Myungsoo grabbed your wrist that made you faced him again.
Before you could say anything, Myungsoo kissed your forehead. “Goodnight, beautiful.” with that, he left.
You were left there, dumbfounded. You blinked a couple of times until your mind finally sinked. Myungsoo was already gone on your sight. A small smile suddenly formed on your face.
You were about to open the door again but someone grabbed your wrist again. You smiled, *This guy is really something. Aigoo! Myungsoo..* you turned around to face him but to your shocked, he wasn’t Myungsoo but..
“Luhan..”
“Let’s talk.”
CHAPTER 59
You’re now at the roof top with Luhan. There was a silent atmosphere around there. No one open a topic yet.
“Are you happy?” Luhan suddenly broke the silence. You turned to him, “Eh?!”
He wasn’t looking at you as he repeated his question. “Are you happy with him?” he asked once again.
“You, are you happy with her?” you questioned back.“What?”
“After Qri became your girlfriend, it seems like you abandon me. It seems like you abandon your own bestfriend.”
“You know it wasn’t the truth.”
“Just answer my question. Are you happy with her?” you asked. *Please say no and I will confess now..*
There was a pause before you heard him said, “Yes, I’m happy. Qri is a very cheerful girl and it’s impossible for me to not to fall in love with her.”
That statement broke your heart. That statement made your mouth shut. You couldn’t say anything for response. You didn’t know how to react for that.
“How about you, why don’t you answer my question now? Are you happy with him?” he asked.
“The Myungsoo who returned is still the Myungsoo I used to love before. He still never fails to make me smile. He still know the things that will make me happy. So.. Yes, I’m happy with him. I guess.” you replied with a lie.
“Did you accept his love again?” he asked, looking at you.
You shook your head, “No. I didn’t. I still wanted to see what else he can do to prove his love to me.”
“Is there chance for you to accept him again?”
You paused, “As for now, I don’t want to say any expectations yet. My decision was still undecided.”
“Are you sure you’re really happy with him?” *Just say no and I won’t let you go anymore. I won’t give you back to him again.*
“Like what I’ve said, he never fails to make me happy.”
“You’re not answering my question straight to the point.”
“As for now, I’m happy when I’m with him.” Luhan’s face fell. “Is that so?”
You nodded.
“Okay then. I’ll support you for yoir any decision you’ll make. I’m still your bestfriend, anyways. If my bestfriend is happy, I am too.”
*Yeah! I heard that word again. We’re only bestfriends. I shouldn’t forget about that..* you sadly thought.
You forced a smile, “Yeah! I’m very happy to have a supportive bestfriend like you. So.. It’s getting late now. I leave first.”
Luhan only gave you a nod. With that, you completely leave and went back to the dorm.
As you open the main door, you saw your friends waiting for you there. They were worriesly gazing at you. You couldn’t help it anymore which made you burst into tears.
“Sooyoung-ah..” Yoona hugged you, “What happened?”
“We made a talk. Luhan and I..” you sobbed, “He still doesn’t have feelings for me. He said he was happy with Qri so I did the same thing. I told him that I’m also with Myungsoo..” you cried even more.
Yuri and Seohyun joined the two of you on the hug. “Just cry it out. You will feel better in that way..” Yuri said as he gently patted your back.
They let you cry tonight to make you feel better. They didn’t ask you anymore and just gave you a warm hug. They wanted hug you until you feel better.
---
On the other hand, Luhan went back to his dorm with a heavy heart. It’s already past midnight when he decided to go back.
He straightly made his way to his room. He found Kris sitting at his own bed while reading a book. Since he was busy reading, Luhan headed to his bed and laid there.
“You’re in love with her, aren’t you?” Kris suddenly spoke while he was still busy on his book.
Luhan turned to his friend’s direction. “Yes, I’m in love with my girlfriend. It’s not hard to fall in love with Qri.”
Kris closed his book and slowly faced Luhan. “Don’t talk to me like a fool, Luhan. We both know that I’m not talking about Qri. I’m talking about the girl you met before you got here. I’m talking about Sooyoung.”
Luhan’s eyes widen, “How did you know that I’m with her before I got here?”
“Like what I’ve told you before. I know lot of things about you Luhan. I can see it by your actions. Even the only picture of Myungsoo with Sooyoung, I know that you’re the one who stole it.”
Luhan staredat his friend in shocked, “Yah, are you watching every action I make?”
“Honestly, yes but about the picture, I don’t actually have an idea that it’s with you. It happens that I’ve got to see it on your drawer when I’m looking for my things.” Kris explained.
Luhan remained silent. “I’m not going to ask why did you stole that picture but I wanted you to tell me, you’re in love with Sooyoung right?”
Luhan was very shocked by his friend’s words taht he was hearing right now. He lowered his head, “Since when did you found out about this?”
What Luhan shock the most was Kris’ answer for that question.
“About two years ago..”
CHAPTER 60
“Since when did you found out about this?” Luhan asked.
“About two years ago..” Kris bluntly replied.
Luhan stared at his friend in shock, “H-How.. did you k-know?” he asked, stammering.
Kris faced Luhan, “The way you look at her. I already saw it since two years ago. I already saw how you adore her when you look at her. You’re not like that to the other girls and even Qri. Honestly, I was shocked when I saw you with her the day when we (EXO) followed you. I didn’t expect that you were already meeting her. Actually, I have no idea how you met her but there’s one thing that I know,” he paused for a moment before saying, “..she’s special to you because you’re in love with her.”
“But she only sees me as a friend.” Luhan said in a low voice.
“How did you know? Did you ask her what she feels towards you? Did she already told you that you were just a friend to her? Are you sure that the thought on your mind was the truth? Do you really think that she wasn’t in love with you?” Kris asked.
Luhan was stunned by his friend’s words. “Then, what are you trying to say now?” he asked.
“What I’m saying is, why don’t you confirm it by yourself. Try to ask her. Confess to her.” Kris said. *I don’t want to tell you what Sooyoung feels towards you. I wanted you to be a man and do it by yourself. I can only help the both of you like this..*
“But..” Luhan was about to say something but Kris already cut him off.
“If you really love her, you’re ready to know her answer. Whether you’ll get rejected or not. Well at least you told her what you really feels. What if she feels the same? At least you don’t have anything to regret. Confessing is the best way for you to get better.” Kris said.
Luhan think about it for a moment. *Do I really need to confess to her? What if she’ll hate me after I did that?*
“Always think positive. As a friend, I wanted to advice you. Just confess to her and be ready for her answer. Goodnight.” with that, Kris lay back on his bed and closed his eyes.
Luhan glanced at Kris for a moment and sighed. He also laid on his bed. *I can’t believe I’m in love with the same girl 2 years ago and until now..*
:: flashback ::
It was Monday. This is the usual day for the girls to give their gifts to all EXO members. Ever since then, Luhan was nowhere to be seen. He wasn’t that cold-hearted that time. He was cheerful though he was easily get annoyed when he was surrounded by te girls.
Every Monday, Luhan disguise himself to escape to the girls. He will looks like a different person when he did that. He actually looks like a nerd.
One Monday, it was Lunch. Luhan was walking at the corridor while he was on his disguise. Suddenly, he accidentally bumped to someone. A girl with her two friends on her both sides.
Luhan bowed at her, “Mian.” Then he saw the girl glared at him, “Watch your way NERD! How disgusting! Tsk!” then the girl pushed Luhan aside that made him fall on the floor.
Luhan frowned at her. The girl rolled his eyes, “Don’t look at me like that! You nerd!” then the girl fixed her uniform, “Aish! My unoform is now a mess. Come on girls, let’s look for EXO instead of talking with thia nerd.” with one last glare, the girls left.
Luhan watched the back of the girls as they walk. *What a pathetic girl. If she only know that I’m one of EXO, she wouldn’t do this. I think doing disguise is better. Well at least I’m seeing how the girls threat the different kind of persons.* he thought as he slowly stood up.
When he was about to walk, he accidentally bumped to someone again. Luhan face-palmed himself, *How many time do I need to bump to others and get insult by them?*
He frowned at the girl he bumped to. “Mian..”
Luhan was shocked. He’s not the one who apologized but the girl in front of her. The girl bowed, “Mianhe. I didn’t mean to make your uniform wet.” she said.
*Wet?* Luhan examined his uniform. He finally realized what the girl is saying. The girl accidentally spilled her juice to his uniform.
He was about to speak but the girl spoke again. “If you want to, I’ll treat you lunch for return.”
“Eh?”
“Come on, I’ll treat you lunch!” the girl said again as she pulled Luhan along with her.
Luhan stopped that made the girl stopped. “Wae?” the girls asked. “I don’t want to eat at the canteen.” he replied.
“Eh?”
“I don’t want anyone to see me.” he said as he lowered his head. “Araseo.” the girl beamed.
Luhan looked up at her, *Is she going to leave me without giving me a lunch? So.. she’s also the same with the girls hmm..*
“Wait me at room 512, I’ll be there after some minutes.” the girl said with a smile. Luhan stared at her in surprised.
Before he could ask the girl, she already walked away. *What she did say? Wait her at room what? 512? Why there? Oh! I’ll just use the elevator..* with that, Luhan made his way to room 512.
He sat in one of the chairs inside the classroom. He waited for the girl there like what she said.
5 minutes had already passed. She still nowhere to be seen.
10 minutes, still no sight of the girl.
*Aish! How can that girl fool me?! Aigoo! I’m being stupid here waiting for that girl!* he stood up and was about to open the door when the door burst open and revealed that girl.
“Where are you going? Didn’t I told you to wait me here?” she asked. “Oh.. I thought you’re not coming back anymore.” he said.
The girl smiled, “I have my words and I’ll do whatever I’ve said.” she lifted the pastic that she was holding to show to Luhan, “Here’s the food. Kaja!” then she dragged Luhan to sit.
Luhan only stared at his food. “Aren’t you going to eat? Don’t worry, I didn’t put any poison on it. I’ll just bought it at the canteen.” the girl explained.
*This is the first time that a girl didn’t insult me with this disguise..* Luhan smiled at her, “Gomawo..” then he started his food.
“It’s nothing but your uniform. It was already have a damage..” she said in a low tone as she gazed at his uniform.
Luhan followed his gaze. He smiled at her again, “No need to worry. It’s okay. Besides, I’m already okay with the food. It tastes good.”
“Chincha?”
Luhan nodded. Finally, the girl smiled. *Yepeoda..* Luhan admired her beauty.
“Go and eat.” she snapped. “How come you don’t have a food? Aren’t you hungry?” Luhan asked.
“Don’t worry about me. Just eat your food.”
“I don’t think I can forgive you..” Luhan suddenly said. “Mwo?”
“Before I completely forgive you, you need to join me with this food.”
“But I bought that for you only because of what I did. I can’t eat with you.”
“You treat me a food beause you were guilty on what you did, right?” Luhan asked. The girl nodded.
“Then eat this with me.”
“But—”
“I insist. Or do you want me to not forgive you?”
The girl smiled, “Araseo but now I’m forgiven hmm?” Luhan nodded as he smiled back.
With that, the girl joined him. She was about to use the fork but Luhan already did so she’s now using the spoon instead.
Suddenly, the girl’s phone rang.
“Yeoboseyo?” “Oh! Myungsoo, are you finish with your practice?” the girl brightly smiled, “Chincha? We can eat lunch together today?” “Ne, araseo. I’ll be there. Bye.”
Luhan stared at her, *She’s very happy when she talk to that Myungsoo..*
“Nugu?” Luhan couldn’t help it but ask her. “Uh.. That’s my boyfriend.” she simply replied.
“Y-Your boyfriend?!”
The girl nodded, “Um.. I’m sorry again about the incident earlier. I have to go now. Finish your food, ne?” she stood up.
Luhan didn’t answer her anymore. “Bye!” with that, the girl darted outside the classroom. Luhan was about to ask the girl’s name but she was already gone.
Ever since that day, Luhan stopped his disguise. The nerd every Monday is now died. Luhan already kill him. That nerd will never appear again in front of everyone or even to that girl.
Luhan always looked at that girl from afar, secretly. He usually saw her with his boyfriend, Myungsoo. He knows him because he is the Guitar Prince at this school along with his friend, Lay.
Everytime she saw that girl with that Myungsoo, it will always broke his heart. Ever since he met her, his heart never stopped beating for her.
And ever since he found out about her relationship with Myungsoo, he became cold to anyone especially with the girls. He never wanted to get close to any girl like how he get close to you. After that incident, Luhan became a cold-hearted person...
