Long Lasting Love

chapter 8

"I have a plan," called a voice from behind Chaeyoung.

"Jennie," replied Chaeyoung with shock,"you have a plan for dealing with Jaehyun?"

"Yes, but this plan can either end in a great success, or total failure," warned Jennie as she came and put a hand on Chaeyoung's shoulder.

"Well, you don't know if you never try," said Lisa as she nodded in acknowledgement."What's the plan?"

"Well, it starts with..."

------------------

"...Chaeyoung? Chaeyoung!!"

Chaeyoung snapped back to reality when she heard someone shout her name from outside her room. It was a certain male voice that she knew all too well.

"Sorry Jimin, I was zoned out," she apologized as she came towards the door."What is it?"

"Our guests will be here soon," he announced as she opened the door,"help us finish getting everything ready."

She nodded in acknowledgement of his request and followed him to the first floor and into the dinning room. As she entered the dinning room, she saw her mother putting down food around the table and the plates, bowls, and chopsticks were still not yet set. She quickly went straight to setting the table when she heard the doorbell sound and watched as her mom jogged to the entrance.

"Good evening, please come in," said Chaeyoung's mother with a sweet tone.

"Thanks for having us, Mrs. Park," said a familiar voice to Chaeyoung. In fact, this voice was one didn't expect hear at all. It startled her so much that she dropped the plate she was holding, causing it to shatter loudly on the ground. The rapture through the house, causing her brother in the kitchen to rush to her aid.

"Chaeyoung," called Jimin as he rushed into the room to help,"are you okay? Did you get hurt?"

"N-no, I-I'm f-f-fine Jimin," she replied, her body quaking in fear. Jimin only understood the situation as soon as Jaehyun entered the dinning room, his mom and two other adults in tow. The realization hit Jimin like a semi truck, making him cease his breathing entirely for a moment. However, he collected himself quickly and didn't hesitate when acting normal and very formal.

"Chaeyoung, you go get yourself cleaned up and I'll take care of the rest of this," said Jimin as he helped her walk out of the dinning room and over to the bathroom."I am sorry that this happened, my name is Jimin, nice to meet you. Also, hello Jaehyun, didn't think I was going to see you after school today."

The man and woman who entered with Jaehyun were most likely his mother and father, so Jimin took that into account when planning ahead and thinking about what the best plan of action was. He knew that if he didn't, it would be a long night.

"Jaehyun," called the woman next to him,"do you know each other from school?"

"Yes mom, I have met them before on multiple occasions," replied Jaehyun with a smile. Jimin was furious at the fact that he didn't tell his parents about Chaeyoung and his relationship. If it weren't for the people around, Jaehyun would truly be dead.

"Sorry about that, I didn't mean to make such a ruckus," apologized Chaeyoung as she came back with an awkward smile.

"No worries sweetie, as long as you are alright," said Jaehyun's mom warmly.

"Now that that's out of the way, let's eat," proclaimed the mom of the twins.

----------------------

So far, nothing had really happened between the three teens over dinner, making Chaeyoung relax a little but still remain cautious of Jaehyun's actions. Jimin was also very worried about his actions but was extremely subtle about the whole thing. However, this little amount of relaxation would soon cause an the two of them to be completely caught off guard.
