Let Me Help ~Kim Seungmin FF~

002

END OF SCHOOL: 

I am now on my way home. I can finally be in bed and watch TV. How great. Which noodles should I make today? Bu- My thoughts were cut off when I heard a familiar voice shouting my name. 

"MINHYE" I turned around to see Seungbin? wait no- Seung... Yeah, Seungmin. That was his name. What in the world did he want from me now? And how in the world does he know my name? I never told him. 

"He... Hey" He spoke as he grabbed his knees panting and gasping for air. What is he doing? I didn't reply bad and just continued my walk. "Wait up.." He jogged his way to me. I stopped walking and pulled out a sticky note from my back pocket not forgetting a pencil, and wrote. 'Why are you following me, what do you need?' I peeled the sticky note off the pile and stuck it on his shirt. Continuing my way home. 

He read the note before running back to me. "I'm not really following you, I just live here. and I saw you walking here so I thought why not walk with you" I didn't like how he seemed to be getting comfortable around me, but this wasn't okay. I cant let him get close with me, no matter what, I. Wont. Let. It. Happen.

Not again. 

I didn't want to be rude either, but still there's no way I'm letting him, let alone anyone get close to me. I cant trust anyone, who knows what they are hiding. and what they plan. I just ignored him and continued my walk not taking any glances at him whatsoever. 

We both continued our walk in silence. I think he noticed I didn't want to talk to him. Well not really him, but at all. We were at my house. I wanted to wave bye to him, But if I did he will probably think we are friends. Which is clearly not the case. Nor going to happen. 

I just walked to my door, pulled out the key from my bag, unlocked the door, and entered. "Bye" Seungmin spoke before I closed the door. I didn't even wake bye, but it's for the best. Right? I mean not everyone is the same, and Seungmin seems trustable, friendly, and kind. So maybe he is different. 

I have thought about maybe giving him a chance, but I'm just too scared to feel hurt. After what happened I cant feel that I'm able to trust anyone. 

I walked over to my kitchen throwing my bag on the floor. I made some instant noodles and went to the living room. About 20-ish minutes into the show, there was a knock on the door. Who would come to my place? Why would anyone come to my place? I don't have any family. 

I let out a big sigh walking to the door. I checked the peep hole. Oh... Seungmin. What is he doing here? I opened the door for him, He was holding a box of cupcakes? They looked really good. I don't think I saw these at the store. 

"Hey uhm... My mom wanted me to bring you some cupcakes." This was really nice of him, Maybe I should really give him a chance. I went back in the house to grab a pencil and paper. 'Thank you very much, Tell your mom I said thanks. Very sweet of you guys.' I gave him the paper with the writing on it.

As he read a small smile formed on his face. That smile of his is so charming, I could look at it forever. He looked back up at me as I returned the smile. "Your smile is very pretty" I slightly blushed at his comment. 'Thank you again, would you like to come in?' I wrote back on the paper. 

"Oh.. sure" I opened the door wider for him to enter. I grabbed the cupcakes and stored them into the fridge. I turned back to see an amazed Seungmin. What's so amazing about this house? 'Would you like anything?' I gave him the paper. "no thanks, I like your style. it's very.... cozy." He retorted while still observing the room, He was right about that. I like to keep my house comfy and cozy. 

He was sure giving me a lot of compliments. It made me start to like him more. Maybe I could actually trust him. He's very nice. He's not the type to be gossiping around with others, or act like those "cool kids". 

"Anyways.... I have a question." He will probably ask why I don't talk. "how come... you don't talk?" I was right. I grabbed another paper and pencil. 'I do talk I just don't with people, because of some things.' I gave the paper to him. "Well you can trust me, I wont hurt you."

I thought about it, but decided to give it a shot. I mean it wont hurt to try. Right? I let out a big sigh before speaking. "I'm sorry... Its just, I had a rough past and I thought isolating myself from all people would be the best solution." He looked shocked at me. I didn't have an ounce of regret lingering in my voice. I was confident about this. 

"Y- your voice... It sounds so beautiful" His eyes were shinning. you could see the beautiful night sky in them. "Thank you" I looked down smiling to myself. "Wanna talk about it? your past?" I don't think I'm ready for this conversation. Maybe another time. "I'm sorry... But I promise I will tell you soon." I trust Seungmin. I just have that feeling he will never hurt me. 

"It's okay don't apologize, I wont force you. Take your time okay?" He spoke as he came closer to me, engulfing me into a hug. I hesitated before hugging him back. He felt really nice. His scent was amazing. I was starting to feel really safe with him. Next time he visits I will definitely tell him everything. 

"Wait- but you cant tell anyone and I mean anyone that I talked to you." I warned him. "Or I will throw a chair at you." I broke the hug holding up my fist to show him I will hurt him if says anything. 

"I promise" He chuckled. We both sat down on the couch "Okay okay... uhm if you want to stay longer we can play games or watch TV whatever you want, or you can go home." I said the last part a bit sad. I really didn't want him to go... just yet. 

"I can sta-" He was cut off by a his phone ringing. It was his mom. "hey mom. Oh I'm at the neighbors house. Okay I will. Bye love you too." He put his phone away. I looked down really sad. 

It must be really nice to have a mother. I sadly lost mine. all my loved ones. Seungmin noticed. "hey you okay?" He asked me as he turned his body towards me. I quickly wiped my tears. "y-yeah yeah I'm fine. Don't worry about me." I spoke, fighting the urge to cry. 

"How could I not worry about you. Your my friend... my only friend" My heart hurt so much. Do I really deserve to be loved this much? I eventually gave in and broke into tears. "I'm sorry..." He pulled me immediately in for a hug. He definitely knows how to comfort me. 

I hugged him back also almost immediately cry in his shoulder. "Don't be sorry Minhye... Would you like to talk about it?" He spoke. I still wasn't ready. especially in this state I couldn't. I just couldn't. "I'm sorry for wetting your shirt, I can wash it for you." I said breaking the hug. "Don't worry about that, it's fine." How can anyone be this kind? 

I broke the hug and looked into his eyes. He looked at mine too.
