Strawberries & Cigarettes: (Liskook)

Chapter 15 (fifteen)

"They are really good!" Hyuna mumble to herself,amazed as she watched the debut single of we8 on her laptop. Her eyes were like glued at the screen and I rolled my eyes.

"Can you just stop watching for a moment?" I said,staring at her "You can watch it peacefully at your apartment"

"I don't have any patience and you know that" She shrugged in response,Her eyes still fixed at the laptop's screen and I sighed.

And surely,I regret saying yes to this early morning date with hyuna and xukun.

Yes,I've said yes to his offer.When xukun asked me for a date,I suggested him that we should go for an early morning date,three of us,since we don't have any early schedule. And xukun agreed.

But as I sat there with hyuna who was busy on her laptop and xukun being late for the date,I regret my decision. I should've just slept rather than frying my mind in this early morning.

Out of boredom,I looked around the cafe just to find some teenagers clicking our pictures from the outside. I looked away as I pretend not to see them because this was too early for me to be energetic and bubbly infront of them. But as I was thinking,my gaze was blocked by xukun.

"Hey!" He smiled apologetically as he approached us on our table "Am I late?"

He was panting heavily and I can see the light sweats formed in his forehead. His hair was messy by wind and his eyes fixed on me.

"Yes,You are!" Hyuna was the one who replied to him and his glance went to her.

"Oh!" He bowed slightly "I'm really sorry for making both of you wait for me!"

"I-"

"It's alright!" I spoke up and glared at Hyuna. She eventually take the hint and stuffed her mouth with some bread instead of babbling about how he is late.

"I got stuck in the traffic" He explained as he took his seat beside me which didn't get unnoticed by Hyuna. She glanced at us and coughed teasingly but fortunately,xukun didn't seem to notice because he continued with his story.

"I tried to call you but then the network was also bad" He said and once again apologized "I am really sorry, guys!"

"It's okay,xukun" I nodded at him because I don't want him to apologise again and again throughout the date. And as soon I nodded at him,He gave me a relieved smile.

"Thank God!" He said and looking at our table filled with only coffee and bread,He asked "Haven't you order anything else besides coffee and bread?"

"Not yet" I said "We were waiting for you"

"Then let me order it" He said. Finally he stood up from his seat and made his way to the counter while Hyuna got the chance to whisper.

"Now don't tell me he's hitting on you!" She said and I couldn't help but to stare at her wild assumptions.

"And what made you assumed that?" I stared, furrowing my eyebrows "We are just friends"

"Well,he's also my friend. I know him way before you but he doesn't sit beside me and look at me the way he's looking at you?"

"What are you even talking about? He doesn't look at me in THAT way!"

"Yes,he did!"

"No,he didn't!"

"Yes! He was giving you the puppy look!"

"Stop being delusional!"

"I'm not being delusional!"

"Yes,you are!"

"Then why would he even ask you on a date?" She asked and I shrugged.

"I don't know? Maybe he just want to hang out with us?"
