"Want something to eat?"
I said as I rummaged my fridge and took out some chicken breasts to cook.
"Yeah, got a little hungry from waiting for u- by the way, where were you? I thought you were at home preparing for your audition tomorrow?"
She leaned on her hand for support as she observed how I marinated the chicken breasts and prepared batter, sitting on the kitchen counter across me.
I automatically sighed as I heard the word "audition" , somehow I feel incredibly burdened that everyone was very expectant about my audition, I wouldn't lie but I feel so pressured and anxious, it's been on my mind for the past days now.
And it didn't go unnoticed by Somin, with sharp eyes like hers, she immediately noticed me frown over the mention of my audition and bit her lip from the guilt.
"Fuck, sorry I mentioned it"
"Yah language! Actually I'm quite fine now, it's just that I keep hearing that word and it annoys me honestly"
"Really? Who in the world kept pestering you about your audition, and wait- DON'T TELL ME YOU PUBLICIZED YOUR AUDITION!?" she suddenly raised her voice in caution as she hit the kitchen counter really hard.
Even Kai was startled and distanced himself from Somin.
"What? nooooo, I just met few friends and told them about it, and don't worry they won't go and spread that info" I waved my hand at her while still preparing the chicken, reassuring her so she could calm down.
"Which friends? Don't tell me it's that Jackson dude- as much as I hate to admit that he's hot- I just get a bad feeling about him, and if I found out that you DID tell him - I'm really gonna freak out-"
"Somin please, we aren't even close why would I tell him that. And plus we aren't even friends just project partners"
"Mhmm" she eyed me up and down , still being suspicious of me.
Sighing, I continued to prep the chicken breasts and turned the fire on so the oil can be heated.
Honestly, what does she think of me? I have other friends too.
"So who are these "friends" you blatantly told about your audition that is supposedly to be kept as a secret?" She crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow, even though I can't really see but I just know she did it just by hearing the tone of her voice.
Wait, she doesn't know I'm close to Kwangsoo oppa, what should I say.
And I can't possibly tell her that I met Zuho as well, she'll go crazy!
It took me a while to answer, I was still contemplating if I should tell her the truth or not.
I mean I still feel guilty after lying to her a few days ago and also kept a huge secret for which she was totally hurt by it, so if I lie again...I might be labeled as a bad friend.
"Actually.. I met with a friend hours ago because it was his birthday-"
"Oh so it's a 'He'?"
She said curiously .
Oh I already know where this is going.
"Yeah but he's like a brother to me, actually- you might know him, he's quite well known you know-"
"If I hear Song Joongki's and Park Seojun's names, I might strangle you" she said provocatively, but obviously she couldn't do that, she'd go to jail.
