I Remember You

Tired? - Chapter 3

I walked home and didnt look back even once. I wonder why Yonghwa is acting that way towards me.

I heaved a deep sigh as I hold on to my back pack.

  I remember seeing Yonghwa during our freshman year and I wanted to be close to him. He's kind and always smiles at me, but one day, Micah cornered me in the comfort room.

Lianee..Dont you dare look at Yonghwa. He is mine!  She smirked as she said those words.

I..I just want him as my friend. I told her and she arched her eyebrows.

You cant even be friends! Then with a flip of her hair she went out of the room and left me with my mouth hanging open.

The next day I tried not to look at Yonghwa and I know he was puzzled by my behaviour. He look at me from time to time with a frown. I know that he and Micah isnt even dating but Im afraid that Micah might bully me if I continue being friends with him. 

Honey? I heard HongKi's voice as I answered the phone when I got home. I smiled.

HongKi! I miss you! When are you coming here? I asked excitedly. I heard his laughter and I pouted.

I know youre pouting honey. He voice full of mischievous laughter then he turned serious. Did you see Yonghwa?

I bit my lip before I answered his question. I really wanted to tell him what Yonghwa did today but I know he will be worried for me. I did..why?

He sigh. Please dont go near him ok? He....he's not a good influence on you.

Yes I know. I told him.

Huh? WHy what happened did he say something to you? He asked with a worried tone.

He called me baby. I said sullenly but I smiled as I add, Dont worry I didnt fall for his trick I know that you are the only one that I can trust HongKi. I still remember what happened on my freshman year here so dont worry. I said in a rush.

HongKi didnt reply right away and I bit my lip again.

Are you mad at me? I asked him quietly.

N-no. No honey why would I be mad. At least you know that he isnt to be trusted. I heard his laugh but theres something in his tone that got me worried.

Is there a problem Hong Ki? I asked him.

N-no. of course theres none. Im just tired honey. He sigh.

then rest I'll call you later ok? I said and hear HongKi agreed. Then I heard the soft click of the phone as the call got disconnected.

I look at the phone and I frowned. That was weird. HongKi usually doesnt hang up right away. He must be really tired.

So tired that he forgot to tell me 'i love you' like he always does before hanging up.
