It's Sunday today and my family as well as Yena's family left for some work. Of course both for different work and at different time, leaving me alone in the whole household. Even Yena and her siblings are out, it's only me at home.
And I guess that's what tempted me to call my infamous japanese crush over. Not for me but because he wants to have the diary of Yena for a day.
Yep, his boba eyes managed to convince me. But I definitely put up a condition. I'll read Yena's diary first and if I think it's relevant and it doesn't expose anything very personal of her then only I'll tell him about her entries. Otherwise it's a big no.
I'm actually taking a huge risk. If my father finds out that I've called a boy over, especially the boy who walked me home 2 freaking times (and is still doing the same thing secretly), he'll make me end up in Kim Jun's kitchen to make breakfast for him as his wife.
And if Yena or her family finds out that I went to her room without asking for any possible kind of permissions and even stole her diary, her family as well as mine would throw me out.
"Damn..." I heard my own voice, filled with sudden realization. Is it too late to call off the agreement with Riki? Definitely not, he might have just left his place.
I just need to give him a call and maybe lie that Yena's back home. But before I could call him, I recieved a text from none other than Riki himself.
Riki Nishimura <3 :
Open the door, I'm here ;)Hahaha, I promised to help him so...
"Hey pretty!" Riki cheekily smiled, throwing his hands at me for a hug when I opened the door. I shoved his hands and him aside before quickly closing the door.
"Don't make any noise, shh." I spoke up, causing him to immediately put his hand over his mouth.
"But... you said you were home alone." He slightly moved his hand away from his mouth and asked quietly.
God, he's so cute sometimes.
"Yes, but walls have ears too. So, shh." He nodded, again covering his mouth. "You stay in my room, which is over there." I pointed towards my room, "I'll go check Yena's room first and then take you with me. Okay?"
"Okay, ma'am." He chuckled, "you're acting like we're committing a serious crime.
"Of course, we are. It's invasion of privacy, Nishimura!" I sighed heavily, "Don't do anything mischievous."
He smiled as I made a weird face at him before heading upstairs.
It's been longer than a decade since I've climbed these stairs that exist in the same house I live in. I'm doing this just for the guy who doesn't even love me. Is anyone more stupid than me out there?
I would be lying if I say that my legs weren't trembling with every step, I felt nostalgic. I remember running down and up on it almost everyday and every hour.
I was just 8 when my mother dragged me down from those stairs, both my parents had tears in their eyes. And that was the last time I ever ran down those stairs and talked with Yena.
Her parents and my parents seperated themselves and I and Yena from each other.Everything that happened after that was only tragic but it doesn't erase how beautiful things were before that specific event.
I was never told what happened between Yena's family and my family, so I named everything a misunderstanding and to stop myself from engaging with Yena, I started to hate her for everything or maybe nothing at all.
I let my thoughts be interrupted for a moment as I gently held the doorknob of Yena's room. Nothing has changed about this floor, expect for the people who live here.
A reluctant sigh of relief left my lips when the door opened easily. Thank God, she didn't lock her room.
But the next thing that my eyes caught in the room, awakened a great sense of surprise and wonder in me.
I saw a huge framed childhood picture of Yena and I together hanging on the front wall, right behind her bed.Why?
All of a sudden I felt overwhelmed as I could no longer stand there. I ran back to my room not even knowing why so.
U-uh, Miso?" Riki looked surprised to see me as I saw him hide something behind him. I didn't feel like talking so I let it slide, standing there quietly.
"Is is safe to go upstairs now?" I blinked, snapping out of my thoughts as I nodded silently. "She's not there, right?"
"Yes." And we began to climb the stairs together.
Riki started wandering around the room and opening random drawers in search of the diary.
But both of us Snapped our heads towards the washroom when we heard it's door unlocking from inside."What the--" I quickly grabbed Riki's hands and looked everywhere before pulling him into the closet. I was panicking, okay?!
"You said no one was there!" He whispered, his voice vibrating against my skin. We were close, so damn close.
I slightly opened the closet's door to have a peek outside and my jaw literally dropped. Yena came out of the washroom and what even more surprising was that a half- naked guy followed her from behind.
A guy? A guy?! A FREAKIN' NAKED GUY?!
"Huff, finally the stain from your shirt's gone." Yena breathed out.
"Yep. Thanks, baby." The guy cupped her cheeks, causing Yena to laugh softly.
YENA HAS A BOYFRIEND? DOES HER PARENTS KNOW ABOUT HIM? FOR HOW LONG HAVE THEY BEEN DATING? DO THEY DO UNHOLY THINGS?
Wait, why am I worried about her?I looked back at Riki and saw him blankly staring at the lovely couple in front of him.
Well, I do have a reason to worry about my cousin having a boyfriend.Yena leaned in to kiss that guy as I immediately covered Riki's eyes.
"Don't look." I whispered to him softly. He wrapped his arms around my waist and leaned his face on the crook of my neck. In just a few seconds, I felt something cool on my skin.
Once again the guy I loved was crying for another girl on my own shoulders.
