My Hype girl (Daerin)

Chapter 12: In my mind

"In my mind"-Lyn Lapid

Danielle:

Danielle tosses and turns in her bed staring at the blank wall before her attempting to get some rest, putting forth alot of effort to wrap her head around the mere moments of her and the cat eyed girls last encounter. From sleeping next to her, to having their bodies so near she could feel her breath on her skin, was this the universe telling her it was meant to be? Could she ever forget about Keeho and move on? To Danielle Marsh, Kang Haerin was the most uniquely perplexing individual. But something about Kang made Danielle come back for more. Haerin was like a cat, so beautiful but yet so perilous, possessing beaty and danger. Was this a forbidden feeling for the latter? That question yet had to be answered.

Danielle was always quite persistent in her studies even from a Younge age, however, tonight was not the case. Every time she had sit down and attempted to even pick up her pen, Danielle's mind would subconsciously  go to a whole different direction. The result simultaneously being the cat eyed girl. Kang Haerin. Repeatedly. This distraction being no help to her, the latter had decided to visit the convenience store quite late in the night. Was it ethical? No, as she had school the next day. But would this stop her from at least trying to clear here mind, absolutely not. Making her way to the store and blasting music in her ears helped Danielle ease out these complex yet puzzling emotions from the past few days, she didn't have this luxury recently so she perceived this peace a rare moment in itself. Maybe this wasn't a so bad idea the brown haired girl had thought to herself.

Finally arriving to the store, Danielle retrieved the closest basket beside her. Walking around the store, she picked all of her favorite snacks, exited to eat them later. Grabbing herself a cup noodle, she seated herself next to the convenience store window, having a breath-taking view of the street during the night. Her reflection from the glass stared back at her, she looked rushed, wearing her oversized clothes, no makeup. Nothing was eye catching about her in this moment, nothing in particular, she was just herself in this very moment. At least she was clearing her mind from every inconvenience she had encountered that week. Night time was always Danielle's favorite, even if it did not seem like it, she simply found piece in the dark, minimal noise, lights shining, no conversation. She preferred silence, but even silence does not last long.  Never had she experienced such peace in her life. She always had her mother there to talk to, but in this very moment, Danielle could only battle with her thoughts and emotions. As she was taking slurping her hot noodles she felt the satisfaction of the hot soup hitting her thought in this cool temperature. The door swings open and the bell rings its mesmerizing song, the cool gush of sudden wind hits the brown haired girls face, sending goosebumps down her spine, but Danielle pays no attention to it as she was too invested enjoying her food. Everything seemed right in the moment.  

The silence. 

Peace,

The chilly wind. 

The hot noodles. 

Danielle was at peace with herself.

Haerin:

Had Haerin made an excuse to not attend the dinner, these immense circumstances wouldn't have taken place. For the past hour Haerin had been staring off into the distance, stiff and unphased - nothing particularly on her mind - listening to all of her sisters friends getting along and making noise. It was just a mere background noise, but for the cat eyed girl, it couldn't get worse than this. The noise, the crowd, the clanking of mental in the kitchen, the smell of all the different foods mixed together, people making useless conversation about what they ate the other day or how they needed to pay their bills, the light beaming down on her face feeling the warm lights radiation. The cat eyed girl was used to peace, no attention and absolute no intention of socialization. This kind environment was defiantly not Haerins cliché, and only ever so tolerable for an ever so small amount of time.
