Blurred Line | Lee Minho ff

Chapter 2 - Elation

- 13 years ago -
"I heard that you are moving to Houston... "
Minho hung his head low.

"Haha, I'm not moving to Houston. I'm staying there for a while before going to another country, " I giggled.

Minho didn't laugh with me, very unusual.

"Minho...? " I croaked out in English.

He gave me a teared-up look, his vulnerable side showing. I, as his best friend, never really saw his vulnerable side. This made me feel as if a knife was stabbed into me - it hurt a lot.

"Have.... Funny? " he replied in English.

I chuckled before stating in English, "Fun, not funny. "

"English isn't my first language, " he snorted in Korean back - he wasn't a good English speaker.

"I know, I know... See you soon? " I stated softly.

He didn't say anything. He just smiled back. Well, that's better than nothing, right?

I stared at his face. Generally, he did look the same as before. But some features did change because of maturity (or puberty...are they both the same or not????). His jawline was more prominent and... That's about it.

Once I've realised that I have been staring, I cleared my throat.

"Minho? " I squeaked out softly.

"Yup, that's me, Jihyeong. " he smiled after his subtle declaration.

I soon found myself mirroring his smile. I felt a part of me - an empty part - was finally fixed. It felt like putting the last puzzle piece of a puzzle.
We then walked around Gimpo Airport while catching up on things that we've missed. God, I never actually thought that I would meet up with my childhood best friend, Minho!

"You've got a place to stay at? " out of the blue, Minho suddenly asked me.

"I do. At a hotel nearby, " I clarified with glee.

Since I had just graduated from university, I am currently looking for a job. I turned my head to look at Minho. All I saw was a glare from him while furrowing his eyes.

"Why spend you're money on something so expensive when you can stay at mine? "

I grinned wider - like a Cheshire Cat! I was on seventh heaven. This could allow me to catch up with him even more! Am I lucky? I'll answer the question myself lolz :) [did I just use an emoticon-]

"Ah yes before that, wanna grab some iced tea? " I heard him suggest.

"You still remember? " I smiled from ear to ear.

"Ay, I don't have memory loss, alright? " he joked with me, chuckling slightly.

While queueing up, realisation dawned upon me that the significance of our friendship meant the whole world to me - on a different level. Well, we have been friends since 2 years old - and we are 28 currently! I may, no, DEFINITELY, wanna cherish this friendship. I cannot stand the feeling of leaving Minho again! Elation was written all over my face as I recalled out lost memories

Omg hello there guys! I'm so sorry if this chapter isn't the best I'm so disoriented lately. Anyways, I'll try my best to be more active haha
