Natty: I....saw something...I saw Haechi kissing someone...
This revelation was quite sudden and the moment Natty had told us, I felt my jaw drop in disbelief. Haechi...kissing someone? But who? More importantly, how could Natty have seen this? If it was a secret, then surely, she wouldn't have found out about it? And why was she so devastated by this?
"Woah! amazing news, but....so, why are you so upset about this?" I ask with a hint of confusion in my voice.
Natty: I....I just..."What?" I ask nervously.
Natty was suddenly tearing up again.
Natty: I....um...I just kind of...I like Haechi, Okay? don't laugh,please..
This was completely unexpected, it was like being hit by a sledgehammer. I had no idea that Natty had feelings for Haechi, she had never shown any signs of it before. This whole time, that was the reason why she was being so devastated.
"I..I see." I replied with shock in my voiceI couldn't believe my luck. How could this be happening at the worst time possible? I was literally just about to get closer and talk to chocol and now the chance is already taken away by another unexpected obstacle...but Natty was my best friend, i had to be there for her.
CHOCOL'S POVI didn't know what to say or how to respond to her revelation. It was clear that this was a sensitive topic for Natty but it was also something that I couldn't just brush off. "You like Haechi?" I asked, "as in romantically?"
Natty: "Yes" she said while sobbing"Is Haechi aware of your feelings towards her?" I asked, "Please tell me you've never confessed your feelings to her..."
I saw Natty wipe away her tears and look over at me."I don't think she knows..." she said
"..Do you think this girl might be someone Haechi is dating?" I ask. The thought that Haechi might already be in a relationship was weird...but it was certainly a possibility.
Natty: i don't know... I'm feeling hopeless right now, I'm sorry girls for interrupting you, this was stupid, I'm gonna go..
"Wait!" I tried to grab Natty's arm, but she pulled away and ran off without saying a single word.
Even though I wanted to rush after Natty to make sure she was okay, the sudden opportunity to get more privacy with Ellie felt like a godsend and I wasn't going to let it slip away.
This would be the one chance that I had to talk to her and if I didn't, then this chance would be lost forever...
ELLIE'S POVChocol: So... are you gonna come to our studio tomorrow?
My mind went completely blank, there wasn't a single thought in my head other than the fact that I wanted to be near her again."Yes," I replied, "I'll be there first thing in the morning."
The fact that she had asked me to come to her studio felt like a small victory, I realized that I could actually make progress in getting closer to her.
"Take care, pumpkin" she said while i just stood there and watched her leave.A sudden feeling of exhaustion hit me as we finally said our goodbyes and went our separate ways.
THE NEXT DAY
CHOCOL'S POVThe next day I was on my way to the dance studio to teach a class. I felt oddly nervous even though I knew that Ellie would be the there. It was as if my body was instinctively reacting to the idea of seeing her again.
There was a mixture of excitement and nerves all running through me in equal amounts but I knew one thing for certain, seeing her again was something I couldn't wait for, so I decided to text her.
"Waiting for you in our studio today!" i sent her a photo
