47: The Party

Narrator's POV

"I know you're using me," Junhui straightforwardly said which made Nari quirked an eyebrow.

"What's that supposed to mean?" She asked as she put down her morning coffee on the island counter, which she had taken a sip from.

Junhui have finished washing the dishes, so he turned around to fully face her. He leaned against the sink with a smirk. "Last night, the way you spoke at the dinner table, gives off a jealousy type of vibe,"

Nari scoffed. "Don't be ridiculous. Jealousy type of vibe? What is that," she laughed.

He caught me red-handed which is making me flustered. - she thought to herself.

Junhui scoffed back as he crossed his arms. He looked down for a moment before diverting back his gaze at her. "Don't lie to me,"

"I can read a room pretty well,"

"And last night, it seems to me that there must be something that happened back in Hawaii that made you and Seungcheol have that kind of tension," he trailed off as he eyed her suspiciously.

Nari had fallen into silence as she knew that Junhui is almost close to figuring out what happened. To cover up her anxiety, she chuckled. "I don't know what you are talking about, Junhui," she singsongs.

"Oh, I'll find out sooner," Junhui singsongs along with a laugh.

Nari's POV

   It didn't take long for time to past by so quickly. Since I didn't have a dress to wear for the party, I did a last minute shopping for the latter and so far, I'm glad I've found the perfect dress that suits me pretty well.

I began to get ready by 4:10 which I started off with a simple make-up and doing waves to my hair. Right off, the clock had strike at 5:30 and by then, I was ready to go. I took one last glance at my reflection, in front of the mirror.

I wore a dark red cocktail dress that has one-shoulder sleeve, paired with white heels that has ankle straps. And of course to top it off with some pearl necklace and earrings. Lastly, I paired it with a white clutch bag.

I made my way downstairs so we can go off already. As soon as I made my way through the stairs, Junhui who was busy fixing his necktie in the foyer, immediately diverted his attention to me. "Wow, Looking dazzling tonight, milady,"

"Thank you," I smiled with a hint of arrogance.

"So are we ready to go?" Wonwoo asked as he appeared. As soon as he diverted his eyes at me, he looked at me from head to toe.

"Nice color you picked," he complimented with a thumbs up.

"It was the last one they had in the store," I said.

"So anyways, are off now?" I asked.

"Yeah, Cheol said to wait in the car, so I guess we could go now," Junhui responded as we walked towards the door.

"Soonyoung! Don't feed her sweets! And bedtime's at nine!" Wonwoo reminded before we exited and made our way to the car.

We waited for only a couple of minutes before Seungcheol came and then we went off right away. It only took a good few minutes before we reached the hotel where the reunion is being held at. When we got there, we were told that the party will start in a couple of minutes which is why the guys just spent their time catching up with their classmates.
