I love you's
Today was the day. The day she'll finally confess to her best friend, Jisoo.
"I love you," Chaeyoung murmurs under her breath.
Feeling how her heart starts to beat erratically. All the anxiety buried deep down on her came rushing up to her spine. God, she wanted to back down, and just bury her head in instant, but she knew she couldn't do that.
She has to do this for herself. For peace.
Feeling the cold sweat on her palms. Chaeyoung could only bite her bottom lip in anxiety. A hobby that she does whenever she feels nervous.
What was wrong? Chaeyoung doesn't know. It's not like she and Jisoo just knew each other recently or like she's a nerd who has a deep huge crush on the prettiest girl and probably asks her out on the rooftop to have the perfect moment to confess. No, Jisoo and her weren't like that. In fact, the two of them have met for a long time and have been best friends for a long time, so why was she nervous?
Chaeyoung thought maybe it's because she's going to confess now. For real and tell Jisoo about her true feelings; that she wasn't kidding and she was serious when she spoke those three special words at random times.
Chaeyoung snapped back at the reality when she heard a soft knock on her door before it swung open.
Her best friend, Jisoo, stood up with a soft smile on the doorframe.
Chaeyoung gulped, feeling the nervousness spreading inside her. It's not like Jisoo would bite her or probably kill her like how horror movies do. She was just plain nervous at the thought that she's going to confess for real real this time.
"Your Ma and Pa just told me they'll be out for today." Jisoo says, walking inside the room casually.
Chaeyoung looks up then down, gulping the lump growing inside her throat, "Yeah."
Jisoo who felt the sudden vibe coming off from her best friend. She takes the remote to turn it on before snapping her head at Chaeyoung who glances at her with confusion present both on her eyes.
"I actually ordered us pizza after hearing Mr. Park and Mrs. Park are out tonight... so movie night?" Jisoo asks, a gentle smile plastered all over her lips. Hoping the movies they'll be playing for tonight will cheer her best friend up.
Chaeyoung shifts a little bit on her position before taking the guitar that is placed not so far on her desk. She then hands it over to Jisoo with a soft smile.
"How about playing guitar instead of watching movies?"
Jisoo shakes her head, "Both of us know really well that I couldn't play guitar."
"You're acting as if I didn't teach you the basics a few days ago." Chaeyoung grins before patting the seat beside her.
"Come now, you ugly bunny." Chaeyoung says, grinning teasingly at Jisoo.
"You're so mean." Jisoo pouts then changes into a smile before taking the seat beside Chaeyoung.
They sit on the floor in silence with Jisoo positioning Chaeyoung's guitar on her arms. Chaeyoung was at her side, admiring at the sight of Jisoo holding one of the things she cherishes the most.
Jisoo then starts to play with the basics and when she hits the fourth string, it releases a tone that doesn't rhyme with the rest. She furrowed both of her brows in dissatisfaction before shaking her head and tried it once again.
