BLIND LETTER (GyulSun)

11

The week passed with Jisun always stopping by to give me treats. I was actually still not used to it since we've only been close not too long ago. And one thing is that, she's opening up to me more.

Like right now, she just came by the music room with Jiwon. But right now, Jiwon and Seoyeon went to get refreshments from the vending machine outside the building, which makes me be here alone with Jisun. The sudden awkwardness I felt made me nervous.

"Oh, and by the way, Gyuri-unnie. Can I tell you something? I attempted to tell this to you last time when you were at our house but my brother came so I wasn't able to say it," she says and plopped on the chair next to me. I got nervous. I already have a hunch on what she'll say but I do hope she won't bring that up.

"A-alright, what was it?"

She paused and thought about it for a while and turned to me.

"There's someone who puts notes on my locker everyday and I am determined to know who that person is. But they don't put their name on the notes so I'm having a hard time figuring out who it is," she says.

I knew it. When she mentioned "notes", my eyes widen for a bit and I pretended to make myself busy by flipping through my music sheets. My heart was thumping hard inside my ribcage, it was even deafening on my ears already.

"O-oh? W-what kind of notes was it?" Dang it! The last thing I wanted to do was stutter but my lips betrayed me. Argh! Can I just disappear right now?

"Just random things. It was kind of heartwarming actually and I think the sender is a sweet person if you ask me," she says and rummaged on her bag. She took an all too familiar note and showed it to me, "Here it is. I got this just this morning on the way here."

I flinched. I felt my face blush as I saw my handwritting on it. And it was kind of cringe! I just hope she won't ever find out that it was me all along or else I'd die of embarrassment.

I nodded, refusing to even glance at it. Just no.

"Did you tell the others about this?" I asked curiously.

"Yeah. I already told Jiwon and Seoyeon but they didn't know whose penmanship it was. I'll try to ask Hayoung-unnie and Jiheon later though," she puts back the note on her bag.

I already felt cold sweat form on my forehead. Those two and Chaeyoung might familiarize the penmanship because they'd see me write on my subject notebooks.

Ahhh this is nerve-wrecking! Hopefully they won't suspect me once they see the notes.

"Gyul!" An arm wrapped around my shoulders as I was about to go inside my house. I already know who it is.

"Hey, Jiwoo. What brings you here?" I asked.

She slapped my forehead and shook me vigorously. I hissed at her. "Yah!"

"Yah, too! I just got here because I'm not busy anymore yet you're pushing me away already. What kind of bestfriend are you?" she whined. I rolled my eyes at her.

"Quit whining, it's gross," I said and ran inside my house while laughing at her.

"Yah! Jang Gyuri!!" she yelled and chased after me.

"And then now I'm scared. What if she finds out that I was the one giving her the letters?" I was ranting to her about my whole 'Jisun dilemma' and she was just laughing at me. How annoying!

"Then come out clean. You should take that time to confess! What else should you do if not confess? By now I think that she'll accept you since you guys are getting close already," she says after a good laugh. I facepalmed myself.

"Are you being serious right now? It's not that simple and easy, Kim Jiwoo. The last thing I'd want to do is confess," I told her and buried myself with my pillow.

Nope. To confess is a no no for me. Period. I won't be able to handle being rejected so to avoid that, I must keep everything to myself.

She smacked my head with my puppy plushie. This girl has a habit of hitting me recently and I plan to seek revenge soon.

"You cowardly dog. Then what if she finds out that it was you all along? What will you do?"

I took the pillow off my face and looked up to the ceiling. Maybe I'll.....

"I will avoid her and see to it that we won't cross paths with each other."
