Bluff (BBANGSAZ)

XXI

Third person's POV

One of those good old days when they haven't known each other's name yet, but Minji already knew that Hanni was someone special.

"Do you want some food?" Hanni offered a snack from her bag, a peanut butter cup.

Minji nodded and gladly accepted the food.

"This is my favorite, and it tastes so good" Hanni said as Minji took a bite.

She thought that Hanni was right because it tasted like heaven. She had only taken a few bites when she noticed something unusual.

Her face was turning red and she was having a hard time breathing. Her hands trembled as she reached toward her throat, panic rising in her eyes.

Hanni started to panic and called the young woman who was taking care of Minji.

"What did you do?" the woman asked, her tone sharp enough to make Hanni’s heart drop.

"I-I'm sorry, I don't know" Hanni said as she watched Minji being carried to the car, her chest tightening with fear.

Hanni's POV

I don't know what exactly I’m doing right now, but I guess I was just totally concerned over my passenger princess. My hands were cold the whole ride, but I didn’t dare let go of her.

And you wouldn't believe that I just lied that I was her girlfriend at the hospital because her parents were not there and I had no contact with any of her family.

But yeah, thank goodness I was acknowledged and was able to make some minor decisions. They advised me to just take her home and let her rest since they had already given initial medication and a bunch of medicines, which I brought earlier.

It was a hassle to change our clothes, but the nurse assisted me earlier, good thing I had clothes in the car.

Minji woke up exactly when we reached her house. I asked for the passcode and she weakly dictated it.

The medicine was effective as I noticed the redness slowly fading. They were glad we had brought her to the hospital earlier, or it could have gotten worse.

She lay down on the huge couch and continued her rest while I prepared some water and healthy food from her refrigerator.

The doorbell rang, causing me to freak out, could it be her parents?

You can do it, Hanni.

A tall woman with long, slender body stood before the door. She looked worried as her gaze shifted to Minji, who was resting.

"This unnie doesn't really listen to me. If Sullyoon unnie hadn't contacted me, I wouldn't have known she got hospitalized" the girl said. I assumed she was Minji's little sister.

"Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself" she paused. "I'm Hyein, Minji's little sister. And what's your name, pretty unnie?"

"I'm Hanni, Pham Hanni, Minji's friend" I said and gladly accepted her handshake.

She looked cold at first impression, just like Minji, but I guessed she was sweet too.

"She's really a hard-headed unnie. I always remind her that she's allergic to peanuts, but she didn't believe me" she breathed and continued, "That's why we have someone who monitors her food, but she's not here. I guess unnie fired her since she wants to be alone. We don't buy anything with peanuts even though I like peanut butter cookies" Hyein said. I never thought she was talkative.
