Loyal Love (Rewritten)

Chapter 20.

•◇•

I sat on the couch nervously when my foot wouldn't stop moving as I waited.

I told him what the situation was about my sister and my parents. He didn't seem surprised but listened fondly and even asked a few questions about her as shy as he was. Things she liked, her favourite incidents etc.

I wondered if it might have been a bad idea to have baek pick out someone for hye when he didnt even know her and kyungsoo seems like a sweet guy but he was so... shy and held back, how could he help a little girl he's never even met before.

'' hey" I flinched sitting up right to turn around and look at the stairs where kyungsoo was coming down.

He had a faint smile on his face. I only realized now how late it was, a paper was in his hand, which he reached out for me and I took it confused. it had a drawing on of a little girl flying on a kit.
'' she drew that for you.. she really loved that kite you and her made together.. did you throw it away ?"

I looked at him caught off guard.. shocked or surprised even that she told him that.. that she talked to him at all that is. '' no .. o-ofcorse not but she was so little I didnt thinks he would remember that "

'' well she thinks you threw it away.. maybe you could.. em s-show her you still have it. I think it would make her happy "

'' ok.. yeah ok sure"
I nodded, somewhat Feeling awkward but also reliefed, happy even as I looked over the drawing again with a little smile. She remembered and she didn't hate me.

he shifted in his stand, turning to pass me
'' I should.. go then "

'' did she say anything else? "

He stopped abd looked up at me briefly.
'' n-no.. not really, sorry.. I dont want to push her if thats ok "

'' it is.. ofcorse, your right.. erm .thank you though, thanks "
I exhaled before I looked behind me at the food i ordered earlier.
'' do you maybe want to eat ? "

'' no I sorta need to be home.. sorry " he bowed his head again, i couldnt help but smile at it. The way he spoke to me was like a student would to their teacher or any other Form of authority. But I was pretty sure we must be around the same age. I thought, maybe he was scared of me.
'' alright.. what about your payment ? Do You want it each week or month or-?"

'' each month I guess it more convenient.. a-also.. can you hand it to me in cash ?"

I nodded following him as he stopped by the door. '' how about 500 each week ?"

He turned looking up at me like a deer caught in headlights '' what? That, that's too much "

'' it's my little sister.. nothing is too much" I simply stated with a little chuckle at the end but he seemed to hesitate so I felt like assuring to him that this was alright. '' hey, its alright. Its not that out of the ordinary. Its like what 1500 a month, how much did u earn at the diner? "

He looked away from me, eyes scanning the ground and I cursed myself regretting from bringing it up without having thought it through. Clearly he didnt want to talk about the diner after what happened and what it meant " sorry, its.. it's none lf my business. Erm.
Look, I know you're having a hard time.. right now, Baeks my friend so I'd like to have you as a friend aswell. This is my first favour toward you "
