이희승 :: The Love's Curse : Unloving You

020

❝I think you both need to find a place,❞ Slowly opening his eyes as he stopped kissing Jung Aori and went to look at the figure. Eyes widened as he got caught by his sister again.

Gulping the large lump on his throat, he surely needed to explain it to the sibling. But why did he even want to explain? Does Seolhee even care for his business? Does Seolhee even want him to explain? Heeseung was just his brother and nothing else. Why would she be listening to his explanation if she didn't even care at all?

❝Couples this days are so annoying.❞ Seolhee told as she walked away, while carrying the heavy feeling on her chest that even herself didn't understand what's going on and why she always felt it.

A hand went to hold Seolhee's wrist, stopping her from walking. Seolhee already knew who it was. ❝Seolhee, let me explain—❞ scoffing at the sibling who is gonna defend himself and convinced the girl, Seolhee already cut him off. ❝Why would you explain everything? I'm not possessive,❞ Seolhee smiled at the brother once that she turned her body just to face him.

❝Plus, I'm only seeing you as a brother, Heeseung. Why would I even get jealous? I know your thoughts and I think you misunderstood me for being jealous at you both.❞ Taking off the sibling's grip from her wrist, as she went to walk away. ❝Go back, Aori might be waiting for you.❞ Heeseung was just stunned at his place, following the girl with his gaze until she disappear from the place.

Seolhee went to sit at the picnic table and played with her legs while waiting for the three to come back. Mind was occupied, thinking about what she saw earlier. Chest was getting heavier when she still could recall everything. 'No, I'm not jealous and why would I? I'm his sister. I can't love him.'

Slapping both of her cheeks at the same time, she woke herself up from her deep thoughts. ❝Have you found your phone?❞ Getting her attention by just hearing the deep voice of the youngster, Jay sat beside her, which made Seolhee feel even more awkward.

❝N-no.❞ Seolhee simply answered and just lower down her head, didn't even wanna look straight at Park Jongseong. ❝Aren't you worried?❞ Jongseong asked as he went to see Seolhee's face but she looked away.

❝Of course I am. Why would I not be?❞ Seolhee told, a bit annoyed to the Park. Standing up, as she walked away, my mind was occupied and being bothered. Pictures of that night and earlier keep flashing back. Park Jongseong and her brother Lee Heeseung.

Seolhee didn't even look where she was going and just kept ruffling her hair just to stop her from thinking about the two male. She didn't notice the root, it came from a large tree. Lucky was on her side, someone suddenly got to hold her waist and prevent her from falling and having a bruise.

❝Are you alright?❞ she heard the worried tone came from a girl. Standing up straight and facing the female, as she gave a bow to thank her for saving. ❝Thank you... uhm,❞ The girl giggle and made Seolhee raise her head by patting her at the shoulder. ❝It's fine. I'm Yang Ji-eun by the way. It's my duty to save you.❞

Arching a brow to the girl, Seolhee couldn't understand what the girl was saying. ❝Duty?❞ Ji-eun looked at the wrist watch and her smile got even wider. ❝Well, I gonna go. Somebody is waiting for me.❞ turning her body, as the Yang started to walk away but Seolhee stopped her and asked the same question.

❝What duty to save me?❞ That made Ji-eun turn around. Tilting her head as she hid her hand behind her. The Yang's rosy lips stretched and went to form a smile once again before she could even place her index finger on her lips. Wind suddenly blew, making Seolhee flinch and cover her eyes.

When the wind stopped, she slowly opened her eyes and went to look at the Yang again but surprisingly, she wasn't there anymore. She disappeared into the thin air.

❝Heeseung-ah, let's sit together.❞ Aori told to the Lee in a cute way. Heeseung didn't answer and kept staring at the figure that was sitting on the picnic table for who knows how long. ❝Heeseung?❞ Heeseung finally turn his head to the girl and just nodded.

Seolhee was staring at nowhere, still thinking about the girl named Yang Ji-eun. ❝Yang Jungwon,❞ calling the young boy, Jungwon went to approach the Noona and asked why. ❝Do you have a relative named Yang Ji-eun?❞ Seolhee asked the younger one. Jungwon got stunned for a minute, still looking at the girl. ❝Jungwon?❞

Jungwon sighed and just shook his head and denied. ❝Yes, Noona but that girl already died years ago.❞ He told as he gave a bitter smile to the girl. Wind blew, making Seolhee's hair dance in the air. Seolhee apologized for asking a question and making the Yang uncomfortable.

❝It's fine, noona. You don't need to apologize, as if I'm gonna hide it from you.❞ Getting something from his pants' pocket, he also got the Lee's hand and place her lost phone on her cold palm. ❝I'll seat next to you at the bus, Noona.❞ Showing his joyful smile as Jungwon went to left the Lee. 'Damn, you tricked me again.' His smile faded after turning around.

Opening her phone to check the battery percentage, but instead, a message popped in, making her hand tremble.

1hr ago

[New Message] Heeseung: I wanna hear that you're in love with me too. I fucking want to hear it so bad, baby. Please...

Heeseung: I wanna see in your eyes that you're jealous. I wanna feel that I got love back...

Chest was hurting after seeing the message that her brother Lee Heeseung sent her an hour ago. Hoping that the Yang didn't see the messages but unfortunately... he knows already. That Heeseung has feelings for his twin sister.

But still, Yang Jungwon wasn't the type of person who would check someone's phone without the owner's permission. As they got out from the resort, the bus came and opened its door for the students to come in. ❝Yah, Lai Mingxia, are you even a kid? Why are you singing Hey Tayo?❞

Seolhee scoffed and just went inside the bus at the second to the last row and waited for Jungwon to sit beside her like he asked. Heeseung sat with his new girlfriend, near Seolhee still, Seolhee didn't wanna talk with her for some reason.

As soon as Jungwon came, Seolhee sat near the window. Letting out a groan, after he sat beside his noona, Jungwon got his buds and plugged it to his ears. ❝You may have fooled everyone,❞ Seolhee went to turn her gaze to the Yang beside who suddenly talked. ❝... but you can't fool yourself.❞ Jungwon continued and then turned on his music and highed his volume so that no one could disturb him.
