*Baekhyun loved me? No, It is not possible… So he hated Kai during this time because of, me?* You stopped running and felt your chest, your heart. You were very surprised when you knew the reason why Bakehyun and Hyena broke up was because of you, Because Baekhyun loved you.
*Baekhyun… Why he never mentioned it to me? Why only now?* You slapped your face in disbelief. You thought it was a dream, because your bestfriend loved you. You are, his bestfriend and he is your bestfriend. *How can it be? So the thing he asked was about this, about himself….*
“Jiwoo!” A voice called. You startled and spun around, Baekhyun was running towards you. You panicked, *Oh my god! I don’t know how to deal with him!* You covered your face with your palms and gave him your back.
Baekhyun softened and stopped running when he approached you. He slowly pulled your palms from your face and studied your face. “Are you angry with me?” He asked.
You shook your head without opened your eyes. He sighed, *Damn, she must have been very surprised.* “Jiwoo, please open your eyes.” He softly said.
You didn’t reply and It was quiet. You opened an eye, Baekhyun was staring at you with a serious look. You knew that he was not playing around, so you opened your eyes and looked at him.
“Sorry… I know you’ll be surprised.” He began to speak, “Yes, that was said by Hyena is true. I loved you, since our first year in Junior high school.”
Your eyes widened for his honesty. You lowered your head to hide your blushed face. *What is this? A confession?* You thought, didn’t want to lift your head.
Baekhyun lifted your chin with his hand and searched your eyes. You avoided his gaze and looked away. “Don’t try to avoid me, Jiwoo.” He said with a smile. You quickly nodded without answering.
“I’ll tell you about my secret.” Baekhyun sighed and walked to see the scenery with his hands in his pockets. “Well, I never loved Hyena. I just like her, but the feeling can’t beat my feelings for you. Do you know who took me for a date? It was her, not me.” You blinked in surprise, You never know. Hyena was your close friend at that time but she was not tell you about it.
“And I said yes, Because I thought maybe I could forget you. But apparently, I can’t. Then, I was honest with her and broke up.” He continued while you just heard his story. “And I think, since then she very hates you. I also don’t understand why all of a sudden she moved.”
You were silent, *She must really love Baekhyun…* “Don’t tell me you pity her.” Baekhyun suddenly said, you startled and grinned. He chuckled, then gave you a serious look, “She does not deserve the pity. She was sick, you don’t see how she saw me, she seemed to want to pounce on me.”
You laughed and shook your head. “Baekhyun, She was like that because she loves you.” You smiled.
“I don’t care!” Baekhyun hissed. “If I didn’t do anything to her, she will hurt you! I knew a girl like her—I mean, nevermind…” He sighed.
You tilted your head, “What was that?” You asked.
Baekhyun quickly shook his head. You gave him a curious look. Baekhyun’s expression softened, he walked over to you and took your hand. Suddenly, you felt your face was red again. Blushed, you lowered your head.
“Jiwoo, Listen to me…” He whispered, looking at you with his soft gaze, “I know you are still mourning for Kai, but I really loved you. Give me a chance to replace him, to take care of you.” He smiled.
Yes, your heart is beating. But you feel any different. *This is not the same as when I was with Chanyeol…* Chanyeol’s face suddenly appeared in your mind. You shocked and shook your head, don’t understand why all of a sudden his face appeared.
