Chapter 8 Pet Me For A Kiss
Sports Festival, the closing day.
"Strike a pose!" Meiya shouted and giggled. I shook my head repeatedly while hiding my face with the both of my palms.
My friends complimented me for wearing a red and black patterned casual dress and flat boots. I attached my cat pins on the side of my waist, wore my red beret and applied the red lipstick that Minho gave me yesterday.
They didn't know that it was from Minho. I just told them that I bought one at the shop yesterday.
"You're really growing up." Fawn's voice cracked and turn around, her back facing us. She raised her arm to her face to make it look like she's tearing up.
"Ugh! She's like two years younger than us!" Meiya slapped her arm and laughed.
"Roll call outside!" The class president announced and we all walked out of the classroom to make our way towards the campus ground.
"You do know that today is the closing day of the Sports Festival. That means we'll be dancing to disco later in the evening here at school!" Meiya beamed in delight and did a little dance.
"I have curfew." I mumbled. "I'm only allowed to stay until 8." I added.
"That's okay, buttercup. You have me." Fawn clicked her tongue and winked.
"What I'm saying is, are you going to approach Minho and ask him to dance?" Meiya asked, glancing secretly towards Minho who's in line of his class.
"Uhm.."
"No. Always remember that you are the prize. Women shouldn't go asking a man to dance with her. A man should make the first move." Fawn chimed in. "Show him that you're better off without him. That you can be a queen without a king. Besides, having a man is not a necessity."
Fawn laughed and clapped her hands at her own speech. "Some may call having a man is a luxury, but I call it a burden ha!"
I laughed at her remark while Meiya took some time understanding what Fawn was trying to imply. All of a sudden, I accidentally locked eyes with Minho. My laugh soon died down and looked away, suppressing myself from smiling. My hands automatically traveled to my beret, adjusting it a bit in shyness.
I looked back at him and saw him smiling at his girlfriend who's now beside him. His smile looks genuine. I chewed on my lower lip when I realized that I have no rights to want a man who's already committed to somebody else. But my heart is longing for him. I don't want to make a mistake. I don't want to ruin a relationship. I don't want someone's heart to be broken just because I wanted mine to be fulfilled.
"(Y/N), are you feeling fine?" Fawn asked and I immediately nodded my head.
I took another second to glance towards his direction. He was holding Clara's waist and smiling at her sweetly as if she's his own world. They look perfect together. Both pretty and handsome. A perfect pair, indeed.
