I arrived at the house at 4:30 am and climbed the ladder to my bedroom and changed into my sleepwear and laying down on my bed I pulled the blanket up to me and finally slept.
-Timeskip to 8:55 am-
I woke up and went downstairs
Where were you last night? My father asked
Just went somewhere for a walk. I said clearly lying
A walk so late in the night? and you weren't home till like the crack of dawn. My dad said
I lost track of time. I said as an excuse
You know how dangerous going out late in the night is? Dad said
Sorry it won't happen again. Dad said
Let her be. She's twenty one she can handle herself. Mom said
Fine. I'll let it slide this time and don't do anything reckless Dad said
Okay.. I said and left the room and went to the bathroom to shower.
I stepped into the shower and let the cold water wash away all the exhaustion from last night. The chill was refreshing, grounding me in the present moment, but it couldn't wash away the thoughts racing through my mind. Meeting Heeseung, sneaking back home at dawn - it felt reckless, but at the same time, it was the only thing keeping me sane in this world of political expectations and family pressure.
As the water ran down my back, I thought about my father's reaction if he ever found out where I'd really been. The truth felt too dangerous to tell, not just for me but for Heeseung too. My dad had always been vocal about his rivalry with Heeseung's father, and the idea of me being involved with Heeseung? That would be an absolute scandal.
As i finished showering i quickly changed my clothes to a new one and went downstairs.
I sat down on the dining table and ate my breakfast while my thoughts are drifting to heeseung every time.
Girl you're awfully silent. Hyunjae said
Ahh its nothing bro just tired from last night. I said
You sure its not Heeseung in your head right now? Hyunjae teased and i lightly hit his arm
OW! Hyunjae yelped
Shut up bro. I said while a smile tugged a the corner of my lips
Ahh so it is him huh? Hyunjae teased
You're insufferable. I said
Don't worry i won't tell our parents your secret. Hyunjae said
Yeah yeah whatever bro. I said
Planning to see him again? Jisoo asked
Who? I asked
Heeseung.. duh who else we talking bout here? Jisoo said
WHat? No.. I said trying to hide my smile
Look who's blushing. Hyunjae and Jisoo teased
Shut up I'm not. I said
Right right. Hyunjae said
Alright fine i admit it. IT IS HIM IM THINKING ABOUT. I saud
There we go. That wasn't so hard to admit. Eh sis? Hyunjae said ruffling my hair
Yeah yeah whatever. I said
So will you meet him again? Jisoo asked
No.. what? I said
