EPISODE 44
*** DONGWOO'S POV***
An hour has passed since Woohyun went out. And so, we decided to follow after him, though we're not sure where he is exactly.
Of course, our managers didn't let us at first, but the insistent we are.
I've been wandering around, still I couldn't find him or her... I'm not just sure who I'm really looking for.
Shit. A mall is no joke, much more the crowd. Lucky that I am, no one can recognize me. Maybe disguising could be a talent.
I'm perspiring. Hard. I'm tired. Freaking tired. And so, I sat on a bench.
Woohyun... Ji Ae... just where the hell are you?
I'm afraid Woohyun found her. It can't be, right?
"Eo! I got a signed album!" a girl with familiar voice sat beside me, and when I turn to look at her... "Ji Ae"
Seems like she didn't hear me, she continues talking at her phone, "Ya! I stood for almost an hour just to get a signed album, you know? No joke. Ahh" she paused to take her heels off, "my feet"
"Of course! They are SO handsome up close!" she nods happily.
I didn't know I'm smiling until she eyes me. I felt my cheeks blush under my face mask.
"Photocard? Nah. It's Woohyun's" she holds the photocard up, "I want Sungjong's! It's just, random, you know. Err. I tried to exchange it, believe me!" she sounds like arguing over the phone.
"but no one wanted to..." she said, her tone sad.
She continues after a while, "a fan next to me even asked him to do an aegyo! Of course, he didn't. Arrogant idol that he is!" she pouts
She paused, listening while taking the band aid off her foot. "Aww. Uncle? Of course he's mad. So mad!" she rolls her eyes, "I just don't get it when he hates me going here in Korea! Like, what's wrong?"
Damn. She's still eyeing me. I could feel her stare.
"Yeah. I'm going after tomorrow's concert. No, he doesn't know. And I don't plan on telling him!" she frowns,"he'll get even mad like hell for sure if he knows..."
"I told you, you should have come with me! Yeah. I know. Exams. Whatever!"
I thought blood ran out of me when she said, "Sure! As promised! I'm gonna take lots of Dongwoo's pictures for you!"
"Okay. Study hard Hoshiko-san!"
After hanging the phone, she fishes a band aid out of her purse and put it on her wounded foot.
Finally, she stands up. And automatically, I stand up too.
What am I doing?
I continue to follow her until we reach the road. I think she's waiting for a taxi.
Approach her! Approach her! Approach her!
Damn it. I can't. The thought that I'm just mistaking her for Ji Ae is scaring me. But... I have to. It's bugging me. I have to confirm who she really is. Before it's too late.
Finally, I walk forward to her. And two steps more, I could reach her.
"You're not going anywhere."
Out of nowhere, Woohyun came. It happens in a nanosecond when Ji Ae opened the taxi's door and Woohyun grabbed her arm off it.
Then, he closes it. Still looking at Ji Ae with intense stare, burning with anger? I don't know. Maybe in longingness? I really don't know.
