Something About Hyein

"I don't think I can do this." Danielle said, and leaned her head on the counter while hiding her face behind her red solo cup that's filled with flavoured vodka.

"Dani, you're just gonna say hi." I said, and patted her back.

"Can we uninvite him?" She asked.

"That's rude."

"You're Daniurally rude, so Jungwon wouldn't mind. He literally lives next door, so what's the proble-"

"I like Jungwon." I interjected and gave Dani a stern look.

"Well, I don't." She deadpanned and sighed. Danielle then stood up straight and chugged down her vodka.

"I don't like Sunghoon, and yet there he is." I pointed out, while gesturing towards Sunghoon and Jake who were playing beer pong with my basketball teammates from across the room.

"That's totally different." Dani said. "You're not secretly in love with him."

"Oh?" I raised an eyebrow. "So you're implying that you're secretly in love with Jungwon?"

Danielle bit her lip and groaned in complaint.

As soon as Minji and I went downstairs, people have already arrived. Jake and Sunghoon were already entertaining them with beer pong, Cards Against Humanity, and they even set up my old Wii console and got people playing Wii Sports. Some were already tipsy, and there was a lot of excitement going on in each station.

Then we saw Danielle hiding in the kitchen. She was sitting on the floor by the corner cabinet and had a bottle of flavoured vodka beside her.

Before we even approached her, Minji was being called by our basketball teammates to play beer pong with them against Jake, Sunghoon, and Jungwon. Apparently the boys are winning, and Minji and I both know that our teammates can be very competitive.

Then Minji grabbed my hand, as if asking for my permission. It made me smile at her gesture and just squeezed her hand back and nodded my head to let her know it's okay.

"This is all your fault," Dani complained. "Why did you have to give me ideas that Jungwon's... That he's- You know what? I'm going to say hi."

I chuckled and nodded my head.

"Yeah, you go girl-"

"No, no, no, no." Dani quickly changed her mind and filled her cup again with vodka. "Nevermind. Not gonna do it."

"Okay hold on, calm down." I told my best friend and took her drink away from her. "Let's chill for a sec. You know that I'm not forcing you to do this, right?"

"Yes." Danielle nodded.

"Then it's no problem, then. If you don't want to say hi to him, then don't." I said, and actually laughing at her stressed out face.

"But he's so cute..."

"Oh my god." I rolled my eyes.

"Here's the thing though." Danielle started, and sighed. "I think he likes me too. I mean, not romantically, I don't think. He's different. He's not some guy who wants to get in my pants, you know?"
re you sure?" I asked.

"Well, yeah." She nodded. "Every piano competition, and me always getting second, while he gets first... I'm just realizing now that he would say, 'great job Dani'. Back then I thought he was saying that to rub it on to my face that he won, but now that I think about it- really think about it... He was actually really genuine."

"And you were actually just a stone cold bitch the whole time." I told her with a grin, but she didn't think I was funny. So she just ignored my comment and continued,
