Could Love be Hard as Math?

Chapter 49

Mina POV

After Chaeyoung drove away, I readjust my backpack and quickly go to pick up Yeji. While waiting for her, I'm nervous as I thinking how I should to pick her. She doesn't know what my car looks like. So, I think I should have to shout for her. Or that people will think or labeled me as a kidnapper if I say the famous line 'hey your mom told me to pick you up'. As I was thinking how I should pick Yeji, luckily Yeji stands close to pick up lane and she sees me once I roll my window down.

"Hai Mina unnie." Yeji skips over to my passenger side.

"What are you doing here?" She asked excitedly.

"Oh, I'm supposed to be picking you up. Your mom and Chaeyoung have somewhere to go." I said.

"Oh, really? Yeay, we can go play!" She said and jump excited.

She then quickly gets in, happily sit at passenger seat. Well, that's quick which worried me since she trust me so easily.

"Are you sure you're allowed to sit in the front?" I asked her.

"I won't tell my mom if you won't." She grins shyly.

"Fine." I replied.

Yeji quickly complies and excitedly bounces in her seat.

"So, where are we going?" Yeji asked.

"Hmm, we going to get you some food first then we going to your family. Your dad is getting a check up." I said.

"Like a flu shot?" She said.

"No, just doctors are going to check that everything is okay. So, are you hungry?" I said looking at her.

"Yeah! I want ice cream!" She said excited.

"Okay sure. What about a kids meal sound with that?" I said.

"Only if it comes with toy." She said pouting.

"Sure thing." I agree.

I turning into the nearest fast food. With Yeji occupied with food, which she started on ice cream. I was less tense about driving her to the hospital. I'm holding my breath as I turn into the parking lot.

"Woah, this is a big hospital." Yeji nervously said.

"It will be fine. Come on, take your toy with you." I said.

Yeji nervously nods, but grabs her pink plastic kitten and follows me inside. She immediately runs to lobby area filled with toys, occupying herself. I pulled my phone and call Chaeyoung.

"Hey." He answer weakly.

"Hey, we're here waiting in front lobby." I said.

"Okay. I will be there soon." He replied and end call.

The phone clicks off and I take a seat next to other nervous visitors who tap there feet in close unison.

"Yeji." Chaeyoung called his sister.

Immediately, Yeji runs to Chaeyoung arms, letting him throw her up in the air. Then, he put her down carefully and ruffling her hair.

"Look. I made friends. Mina unnie got me this toy and ice cream." She hold up her pink kitten for Chaeyoung to see.

"That's really cool." Chaeyoung forced himself to be enthusiastic, but he looks just as nervous as when he left school.

"Thanks for picking her up. We should work on biology project on Monday." He said as he turning to me.

"Yeah, sure." I replied.

"See you Monday." He said and grabs Yeji hands.

But, Yeji pull her hand and runs to me. She hold my hand tightly and pout.
