We all finish our food, Donghyuck and I agree to disagree on our conversation. Jisung walks Chae home so I'm walking with Hyuck. His house is in my neighborhood but it's on a different street.
"So, what did you think about the news?" Donghyuck inquired out of the blue. "Umm I mean...if Jisung's happy I'm happy" I trail off. He hums in response. "You guys have been friends for a long time" he says stating the obvious "so have we." he stops and looks at me. "Anjae, do you like Jisung?"
"What?" I'm taken aback by the question. I had never really thought about it. I've always had a soft spot for Jisung, he's my best friend. "Of course I like Jisung, he's my bestie." Donghyuck gives me a face that says 'girl stop playing'. "You know what I mean, Anjae." He says slightly annoyed. I groan and pause to think. "You're thinking too long. You do like him, don't you?" I roll my eyes at his conclusion. "Lee Donghyuck, do not say a word about this or I will hurt you." I threaten. A smirk spreads across his face. "Your secret is safe with me"
"It better be."
I don't even know if I really even like him like that.
"Hey so how do you feel about Chae?" I ask him. We've never really talked about her. She's just been here. "She's cool I guess but she's only ever really seemed interested in Jisung." He recalls. "Yeah" I scoff in a agreement "she's never been a fan of me."
"If she hurts Jisung-"
"Don't think like that" Donghyuck cut me off. "We have to at least give her a chance." He states hopeful.
"Still..." I say stubbornly.
Donghyuck and I part ways. "I'll see you tomorrow Jae!"
"Bye, Hyuck" I wave and turn down my street.
As I'm walking home, I think about what Donghyuck said. I guess I've always liked Jisung, I just never payed attention to it. Our friendship is strange. In ninth grade, everyone thought we were together but we always said we're just friends. I don't know if I'd take the risk of dating Jisung. Relationships don't always work out and I would literally die if I lose him. I'm scared that if we get together then breakup, all those years of being best friends will be ruined. Even if we do manage to remain as friends, it won't be the same.
I arrived home and went to my room. I dropped onto my bed and pulled out my phone to text Jisung, like I always do.
Hey, I hope you made it home
safe.
He never responded so I went to sleep.
