Chapter 15. My Best Friends

HANNI POV

Hyein and Danielle just blinked at me from across the coffee table as I nonchalantly hit submit on all of my college applications. Whew, that was a huge stress reliever. I was so happy to get all these college applications out of the way so I could focus on scholarships for the remainder of the year.

I mean, if I didn't, my parents would probably strap me to a computer and get it all done without leaving the house.

And while we were all supposed to be working on them after practice today, I was pretty sure Hyein and Danielle only accomplished giving me bitch stares the whole time.

"Hanni," Danielle started to say as she brought her pen up to her lips then to point at me, "Shin Ryujin was asking you out on a date."

For the past twenty minutes, Hyein and Danielle have been insisting that the encounter I had with my co-captain and teammates was purely a "wing-girl" tactic to get me to say yes to a date with Ryujin.

And sometimes they thought I was the dumb one in this group.

Danielle insisted that Bae and Isa were "obviously" baiting me to admit that I liked girls and that it was convenient enough that Ryujin happened to be in the room as well.

And Hyein claimed that Ryujin just got out of a long-term relationship with a girl and was already happily putting herself out on the market.

And while they spewed out that nonsense, I bickered back to them that she was just being nice and simply put that as the tennis team's co-captain, she was obligated to be friends with every person on the team.

Duh.

Hyein pitched in, "And Eunchae is captain of the badminton team. You don't see her holding hands with all her teammates and saying, "you go, girl!" from the sidelines."

Danielle replied hostile as she was still bitter towards the girl badminton player for possibly being involved with Haerin, "Instead, I'm pretty sure she hits her ankles with her badminton racquet whenever she fucks up. Such a team player."

I piped in as I sipped my coffee and glanced at my computer screen that said, "Congratulations on submitting your application to NY University." "And what does that have to do with your theory that Ryujin wants to fuck me?"

"We didn't say that she wanted to fuck you," Danielle said, "We simply said that we think that she's trying to ask you out."

"And why in Satan's buttocks would she want to ask me out?" I replied as I gave them a strange look.

"Who wouldn't?" Hyein chirped and Danielle nodded.

"No one wants to date me," I muttered and closed my laptop, "Didn't we just have this conversation? I'm ugly and I talk a lot. Case closed."

"Hanni, you're fucking beautiful so stop saying that bullshit," Hyein nearly shouted and I wondered if Danielle's parents were home. Not because I didn't want them to hear this conversation, but because I was secretly hoping Danielle's mom made those heavenly Nutella cookies. "That's why Minji literally cannot stop eyeing you-"

"Wait, what?" Danielle blurted out.

Oh shit. My eyes widened as I gave Hyein a look of surprise. Her eyes widened in response as she looked at me and mouthed the words, 'you didn't freaking tell her' as she nodded over to Danielle.

"I can fucking read lips you two, what the fuck are you two hiding from me?"

"Nothing!" I yelled out, not wanting to have this conversation as I sat up into the couch to hide behind some pillow cushions in preparation.
