Hello!
I'm Cha GaEul.
I'm Geum JanDi's best friend, since kindergarten.
We've always had a lot in common, our fashion sense, humor, boys...
We met in a strange way too.
You see, JanDi has always been a very... Energetic person. She always fights to stand up for her friends, even if she gets hurt doing it.
So this is how...

"Give it back!" My 6-year-old self yells, crying.
"No! What's in it?" A few boys laugh and pick at the lock of my diary,
"it's none of your business! It's mine, give it back!!" I scream. They smirk and grab a rock, smashing the locket.
They open the book and flip through the pages.
"You write such useless things.." My crush, JaeSeok laughs.
"No I don't!"
"Omo.. What's this.." They tear out a page and read it loud,
'I think I might like JaeSeok. He's very handsome and kind and funny. He's mean to me but I still love him.'
"You idiot! You think I'd like you!" He crinkles up the page and throws it at me.
"You four, shut up!" JanDi suddenly grabs the paper and throws it back at them, "It's none of your business if she hates you or loves you! So buzz off!" She yells, sticking out her tongue.
I stare in amazement as the boys gasp and back away,
"It's the crazy girl.." They say to eachother before running away.

Isn't it funny?
I sit down on my bed, looking through my phone. Ah,
There's so many selcas of her and me.. And some of me and YiJung sunbae.
YiJung sunbae... Ah, I love him so much.
He's so caring and kind.. I hope he can help me learn pottery.
After all, he's amazing at it.
I smile and lay down, then look over at the door of our hotel when I hear it open.
"Ah, you're back?" I ask and sit up again.
Yijung nods, "Yeah. I told JiHoo I wanted to see you." He smiles his award-winning smile and sits next to me.
"Aish, you're too sweet." I say and giggle, leaning my head on his shoulder.
"GaEul-ah..." He says quietly, closing his eyes.
"Yes?"
"Even if I'm not perfect, you love me.. Right?.."
"..." I look over at him, "Of course I love you.." He nods slowly,
"Okay.. I've been thinking.." He sighs.
"About what?"
"There's something I have to do..." He smiles.
"Do what?"
"GaEul, you know how much I love you.. Right?"
"Yeah..?"
"And you know I've only loved you this much.." I nod.
"Yijung, what's going on?.."
"GaEul ah.." He slowly gets off of the bed.
"Yijung...." He takes my hands and kneels down,
"I love you... So much. More than anyone can describe." I gulp.
He isn't..
"GaEul-ah." He reaches into his pocket,
"Yijung.." I say shakily.
"Will you marry me?" He says and holds up a simple yet beautiful ring.
I gasp softly, my tears welling up.
I stare at him, speechless. My throat stops up so all I can do is nod slowly.
He smiles and takes my hand, gently sliding the ring on.
My eyes stay glued to him and him only.
I stand up, holding both of his hands in mine.
"Cha GaEul.." He whispers, "I love you.."
I quickly hug him, my arms tight around him.
"Yijung sunbae.." I say shakily, "I love you too..."
"Aish, this kid.." He chuckles, his own eyes looking teary, "Why do you call me 'sunbae' if we're engaged.." He says and wipes my tears.
I sniffle, "I'm j-just used to it.."
He smiles and pulls me closer,
"I know.." He says and presses our lips together in a soft kiss.

HOW WAS IT?
I love you guys so much, thanks for sticking with me even though I stopped writing for a short period!
So, did you like it?
Should I write about them sometimes instead of JanDi and JiHoo?
