I Fell In love With Hyunjin

chapter 18

Kim Eunji

I didnt bother putting much make up on, its not like he gives a damn about it. He likes someone else, im just a friend to begin with. No one special.

I dont want to make things awkward, but i cant stop thinking about last night and Ae cha. Was she the girl he was talking about? I should distance myself out of respect.

I took a deep breath. He said he was already here at the venue. Its only 3:30, i hope time flies fast.

He saw me and and waved. He started walking forward.

He looks good even in casual clothes. I looked away. But i looked back again, i couldnt stop my eyes, he's too handsome. Wait. WERE WEARING THE SAME COLORS! My eyes looked everywhere but him.

"Hey." He greeted.

"Hi." I bowed.

"Why are you bowing?"

"Uhm. Should we sit somewhere?"

"Yeah, lets get a drink, we can get in line maybe a bit later."

I busied myself by looking for a cafe or anything i can use as an excuse.

"Wow, i just noticed. Were wearing the same colors!" I turned my head to him and nodded. "Im wearing gray pants while youre wearing a gray top."

"Yeah and black skirt and you a black long sleeve." I looked twice. "How is this possible were both wearing long sleeves?" The universe is messing with me. Please, i want to move on.

"Yeah, seems like even in clothes we have the same taste."

"This is not mine." I shrugged.

"Omo. This isnt mine too!" He smiled.

My eyes widen. What? If we have another similarity im blowing my head off. I shouldnt feel butterflies. Get a grip Eunji.

"Tim hortons?" I pointed.

"Sure."

We got in.

"I'll order." I volunteered, i need to get away from him.

"No, i'll take care of it. Just sit down."

"I'll just have iced coffee and a classic donut. Thanks."

"Okay."

I rested my face on my palm and stared outside. No one ever said moving on is easy anyway. I fell way too fast for him, definitely my fault.

"It might take 5 minutes." He sat down.

"Thats okay."

"You seem sad."

"Me? Im not."

"Even earlier. Arent you supposed to be happy? Were seeing Baek Yerin later."

"Right. I forgot about that." I smiled.

"What occupies your mind that you forget youre going to a concert?"

"Nothing big."

"Hmm, youre lying. But okay i wont ask. But i expect you to be overjoyed later."

The silence was broken when our order came up. He stood up and took it.

"You ordered the same thing?"

"Yeah, im too lazy to choose."

We took a sip of the drink and i just ripped the donut quietly while he took a bite on his. We've never been this awkward, even when we turned quiet back then it was comfortable. Now its like were dodging each other but trying to act normal. Maybe he's trying to create some distance?
