Girl, Get up.

Chapter 33

Minji finally slumps into her bed. She was exhausted. She hasn't even been back for a day but a lot has already happened. Haerin hugged her. Minji smiles to herself as she tosses and turns around her bed. She sits back up and looks around her room, it still looks like how she has left it. She couldn't believe she's back in Korea again, she lays back down again and stares at her ceiling. She closes her eyes and thinks of today's events, she tries to fight off sleep but tiredness finally wins.

Minji doesn't know how long she has been asleep but she stirs as she could hear whispers around her.

"Should we wake her up?"

"No, no, we should let her sleep some more"

"So what, we just watch her sleep until she wakes up?"

"I don't mind that, she looks pretty when she's asleep"

"Ew, Felix."

"Creep"

"Oh so now I'm the creep when I compliment her for being pretty when she's asleep but you guys aren't? We've literally been watching her sleep for 15 mins now."

"Yeah well the difference is we didn't say it out loud."

"Keep those thoughts to yourself buddy"

"Im telling Haerin"

"Hyewon, please. I'm begging you. Do not tell your sister. She just got done being angry at me for having Minji as my background picture on my phone"

"Serves you right for making a move on her girl, bro"

"It was literally a group picture us"

She slowly sits up from her bed and looks around her, she sees her group of friends in her room. She stretches and yawns, she gives her friends a smile and they smile back at her as they make their way to her bed.

"You sleep alright?" Hyewon says as she pats Minji's head. Chaewon climbs onto her bed and snuggles up to Minji, Chan and Felix sit on the edge of Minji's bed and smile at her widely.

"Mhm. I did. How long have you guys been here?" Minji asks her friends, she could barely hear what they were whispering about earlier.

"Not long, we were contemplating if we should wake you up or not" Chaewon says as she snuggles closer to Minji, Minji laughs and hugs Chaewon; she grabs her phone and takes a picture of her and Chaewon.

"What was that for?" Chaewon asks her, she looks at her friend curiously as Minji sends the picture to someone.

"Sending it to Yunjin" Minji smiles at her Chaewon, Minji tells them that Yunjin deserves it for teasing her earlier. The group laughs and asks her what Yunjin said to her. Minji fidgets around her bed and looks at her friends. She contemplates if she should tell them or not. She figured that since Yunjin and Hanni knew, she should tell them too.

"Don't freak out okay?" Minji starts off, they all look at her curiously. Chan moves closer to the bed and makes room for Hyewon, she climbs onto the bed and moves beside Chaewon. Minji looks to see if her friends are comfortable before dropping this news to them.

"She teased me about Haerin" Minji says, she waits to see their reaction but sees that it looks like they were urging her to elaborate more. She sighs again and finally explains to them the truth.

"While I was away, I realized that I like Haerin. Even when she and I were fighting, I still liked her. I don't know when it started but I didn't realize it till I was going out with Sunghoon and she was all I could think about" Minji sighs heavily, she remembers how difficult it was for her to admit her feelings for Haerin back then.
