Penthouse fanfic : Oneshots

What if I don't let you go? : A seokro oneshot

Rona and Jenny walked inside Rona's house after completing their vocal performance practice in Cheong A arts Centre. They paused when their eyes fell oh the two suitcases sitting in the hallway with Mari standing behind them, a strange smile on her face.

"Eomma...are you going somewhere?" Jenny finally broke the silence as she approached her mother with Rona following close behind.

Mari grinned and shook her head.

"Not me..."

She pulled out two boarding passes and placed them in Jenny's hands.

"The two of you are going to Jeju  right now."

Rona and Jenny stared blankly at the woman before blurting out in unison.

"Us?"              

Mari nodded

"But isn't it Logan ajhussi and Suryeon ajhumma's engagement tomorrow? I wanted to attend it..." Rona muttered staring at the suitcase in front of her.

"It's not even their wedding. It's just an engagement. Plus, it was Suryeon-shhi that suggested that all of you kids go for a last trip together before Rona goes abroad and Minhyuk leaves for the military." Mari explained as she began to pull the two suitcases out of the house.

"All the kids? You mean...even Seokhoon and Seokkyung?" Jenny asked as a glint appeared in her eyes.

Hearing Seokhoon's name, Rona's face immediately darkened as she hesitantly followed the mother and daughter duo out of the house.

She was going for a trip with him. It had been a month since she last saw him when he had taken her to Suryeon and she had learnt about the truth behind her mother's death. The trip back that day had been quiet. She had clutched onto his body and softly cried into his shirt as they drove back to Hera Palace. He hadn't said a word. He didn't tell her to stop clinging onto him or to stop acting like they were still together. He had simply been there. Silently waiting for her tears to stop flowing. He didn't say a word. He simply dropped her home and had walked away, without looking back even once. And then she had never seen him again ever. She was finally beginning to accept that they were really over for good this time and now she had to see his face again. She didn't know if she would be able to act like her chest didn't hurt every time she saw him if they actually went for a trip together. He clearly was fine. She was not. And she didn't want to burden him with our feelings that just weren't fading away no matter how hard she tried.

When Rona came out of her thoughts, she was standing with Jenny in the Parking Area. They were soon joined by Minhyuk and the Joo twins who seemed pretty awkward too.

"Yah Lee Minhyuk! Why are you so late?!" Jenny scolded the young man, pulling him away from Seokkyung's side and towards her.

"Ooh..Yoo Jenny...are you perhaps....jealous?" Minhyuk giggled as he shoved Jenny lightly with his shoulder.

"Jealous my foot..." Jenny muttered rolling her eyes.

Rona couldn't help but release a small laugh as she watched her two best friends bicker again.

That's right.

Maybe she was overthinking everything.

She should just stay with Jenny and Minhyuk and everything would be fine.

There was no reason to be scared of facing Seokhoon when she could just not face him.

It was going to be okay.

She was leaving in a week anyways.

She just had to get through this trip without showing him that she was still crying over him every night.
