Every day from that day was the same, jake tried talking to me for a few days but I ignored him most of the time. Soon enough he stopped trying and i was okay with that.

It was a month later now. It was December and soon Christmas was coming, we always celebrated Christmas with Jake's family since it was always just me and my mom. This year was no exception since my mom didn't know what happened. She gave me money to buy gifts for jake and his family.

It was Saturday and Christmas was in 2 days. Which meant we didn't have school on Monday since it was Christmas. I went shopping this evening since i had been delaying buying his gift. Shopping for his parents wasn't that hard since they would appreciate whatever I bought for them. I bought a cute but affordable tea cup set for his mom and a wallet and tie for his dad who has always been like a dad to me. I honestly appreciate his parents a lot and for what they've always done for me.

Now the thing was I wasn't close to jake anymore and I didn't know what he'd like or what his preferences were now. I went to the mall looking around for almost an hour but couldn't find anything. That's when i entered a store and saw jake standing there clueless looking for something. I tried leaving so he wouldn't see me but that's when he saw me with a huge smile on his face. minju! he said smiling and my heart skipped a beat at that moment. I missed jake so much that seeing him like this makes me wanna cry.

oh hi jake i say smiling
are you shopping for Christmas? He says
yeah, you? i say
yeah but I sadly couldn't find anything he says
same, i was just gonna go eat something i say
oh same! How about we go together? he says
okay i say a bit unsure since it's been a while since we ate together.

We got upto the food court and jake asks me what i want and i say I'm with whatever he wants. He orders pizza, one pepperoni and one mozzarella. We sit down and eat our pizzas that's when jake says

hey, i just wanted to say I'm sorry. I never got to apologize to you properly. Although I don't have any excuse, i know I shouldn't have said that just know I didn't mean any of that. I just felt like my mom was blaming me for spending time with my friends and i was immature. I hope you can forgive me minju..

It's okay jake, i forgave you a long time ago. I think of you as family don't worry about it too much i say smiling

He smiles back at me and my heart melts. I've always known that i like jake but i never knew if it was romantically or as friends.

Being away from jake for so long made me think it was as friends but now the way my heart is beating makes me sure that i like him. I really like him and it's bad.

After we're done eating i tell him I'm gonna go shopping and he asks me if i wanna go home together and i say yes.

I look around a few stores but couldn't find anything. I went to the last store in hopes of finding something, i see a black hoodie, it's basic but it's his style. I imagine him wearing it and my cheeks turn red. Without thinking too much i buy that hoodie and a cap for him since he loves wearing caps.

I call jake telling him I'm done shopping, eventually he comes to the front of the mall and we go home together chit chatting and talking about random stuff.

We reach home and he says  i had a fun time today minju, let's hang out more often before entering his apartment
I say with a smile okay jake

We both go inside our apartment. I sit there on my bed with my heart beating so much. I am not sure what i should do with my feelings for jake. I know he doesn't like me so I'll try keep them to myself as much as possible.
