Jieun's POV

I sat down on the lounge seat while I waited for my mom to come. " Jieun! " I heard a familiar voice but that wasn't exactly who I wanted to see.

" Your mom has an appointment so she asked me to come instead. " Kayeon said with a smile.

Kayeon is my mom's assistant. She practically watched me grow up, and she's always there as a mother figure for me.

I smiled slightly as she wheeled my luggage to the car. I got into the passenger seat, " Sorry for making you wait. " I shook my head with an assuring smile.

While she was driving, she looked over at me and furrowed her brows. " Where's your lucky charm? I remembered you would go everywhere with it. " I looked down at my bag.

I pursed my lips, " I decide to give it to someone. "

She seemed surprised by me, " Is it the Younghoon guy? I heard you got him a Kenzo sweater. " I shook my head.

" Please don't ever bring that incident up. " I said and she nodded.

Not gonna lie, I gagged at myself for that. Can't believe I tried to separate a couple up for someone I don't even like.

I cleared my throat, as I turned to Kayeon. " What does it mean if I get all nervous and I felt as if my heart is about to explode? Oh, my stomach feels all crumbly too. " She sneaked a laugh.

" Are you in love? " I widened my eyes.

" Impossible! " I turned my body to look out of the window as it drove passed many houses in the estates.

Kayeon teased me, " I remembered when I was your age, that was when I met my husband. " I turned over to her, wanting to hear more.

" We were high school sweethearts. I went after him instead and at that time it wasn't a norm for girls to chase after a guy. People often tease me, they told me he wouldn't appreciate me since he got me easily. " She chuckled.

I blinked a few times, signalling her to continue with her story. " Well, I didn't care. Love is blind, they say and it's true. I was blinded by love but I'm glad I was, because if I'm not I wouldn't have went after him. "

" After chasing him for a year, I got tired. I felt as if he doesn't feel the same way so I gave up. I stopped trying to get his attention, but that was when he started chasing me. " She chuckled at the thought of it.

A smile crept up on my face. How I wish I have such a cute love story too.

She looked over at me, " So whoever you like now, please go for him but know when to stop trying so hard. " I pursed my lips as I looked down at my phone.

When I got home, I went up to my room and laid on my bed while staring blankly at the ceiling.

The thought of us accidentally kissing came into my head. Unknowingly, my hand reached over to my lips and heat started rushing up to my cheeks.

I squealed as I rolled back and forth around my bed.

It's honestly so cringe but somehow, I don't regret that kiss. It made me realised how I-

No.

No.

I didn't feel anything.

My stomach started growling so I went down to the kitchen to get some food. While I was eating my sandwich, my phone vibrated and I looked over at it almost immediately.

' Want to know how to be fashionable? Watch our video today! '

I slammed my phone back down onto the table.

Somehow, a part of me wish he would message me but god knows when he would. " Jieun! My baby! " I pushed the last bite into my mouth and went to the living room.

My mom ran to me and pulled me into a hug.

" How was your camp? Did you enjoy it? " I nod with a smile on my face.

My mom doesn't have time for me usually so she tries to spend as much time as she can with me.

" So what happened during the camp? " She asked. All the thought of what happened during the camp as well as the kissing incident came to my mind.

I shot her a smile, " Nothing much. Your usual camping stuff. " She nod and I smiled awkwardly while staring into space.

" Let's have some mother-daughter day today. " I smiled widely.

Just then my mom's phone rang and my smile faded. I know for a fact that she will have to return back to work. She answered the call, " Didn't I tell you I will be spending time with my daughter today? " She shook her head as she let out a sigh.

" What? He's already at our office? Oh my gracious. " She placed her hand on her forehead and I know from that look that i've seen for the past few years of my life, as much as she don't want to leave me alone she have to.

When she hangs up the call, she walked over to me and grabbed both of my hands. " I'm sorry Jieun, I promise to make time for you. " I shot her a reassuring smile.

I didn't want her to feel bad because it really wasn't her fault. My mom really did sacrifice a lot to give me a good life. She's the sole breadwinner of the house and she had a bumpy past.

She gently stroked my hair and shot me an apologetic smile before she left.

I let out a sigh as I walked to my bed room and laid on my bed again. I thought about what Kayeon said as well as her love story, not gonna lie I'm tempted.

I took up my phone and searched up for Jaehyun's name in my contact.

It took my 1 hour just to type out what I wanted to tell him and it's only a sentence.

I smiled proudly at my masterpiece.

I clicked sent and the moment I did, it showed on my screen,

Seen, 3:52PM.
