Accidentally in Love

Preparing

-Sumi's pov-

One more day without Seungcheol. I went to the mirror and washed up. While washing my face I looked at myself in the mirror. After a long time of staring I looked away. I couldn't face myself like this. Broken, confused, lonely...lost.

After washing up I turned my phone on. 60 calls from Seungcheol, and 99 texts from Seungcheol. I lightly smiled then got a call from Dino.

"Yeoboseyo?

"Sumi noona? Gwenchana?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. What did u call for?" I asked.

"Oh yeah. You remember the dance right? I sent Suzy noona over to help you get ready. If you don't want to go it's okay." He said.

"Ani, I promised you. I'm coming, and thank you Chan. Tell Hoshi I'm sorry for running out on him." I finished.

"Okay. Bye noona." He replied cutely.

"Bye Chan." I said then hung up.

After a few minutes the door bell rang. I went downstairs and saw unnie with a big box. I quickly opened the door and she smiled. "Wanna help me?" She asked. I smiled and took the box from her hands.

We walked up to my room. "What's in the box unnie?" I asked when we got to my room.

"Open it. It's a present for you from me." She answered.

I opened it and in it was a beautiful white dress. (In the media)

"Oh my...unnie it's beautiful. Where did you get this?" I asked.

"It's mine. Since I'm old now, I decided to give it away. Now listen closely, this dress is very magical. When I wore this dress to my prom I found my true love. My eomma wore it and found my appa. This dress helps you find who you're going to spend the rest of your life with. You can dance with anyone and it will still look like this, but the very last dance of the day the dress will lightly glow. Then your true love will come find you and ask for the last dance. Even if you don't think it's him, it will be him. After you're done wearing this dress, I want you to keep it and when someone is looking for love, give it to them. This dress is very important." Unnie finished.

"Thank you Suzy unnie. I promise to pass this dress on when the time is right. But why did you give me the dress?" I asked.

"It's because I've watched you closely. You're exactly like me. You jump to conclusions, you're strong headed, sometimes you let your guard down but that causes you to build it up more when you get hurt. And mostly...you're confused. You don't know if you should trust people, so you push them away. I know you don't want to hear this from me but...you're heart is numb. You fall in love easily, but then come to your senses and realize that you're letting this person in your heart. You've been hurt before, so it makes you scared to let another in. Sumi..just know that there are people around that want to help you." She finished.

You realized that tears were falling. Everything she was saying was true. "Unnie...how do you know this? I didn't even know this myself." I said while wiping my tears away.

"I told you, right now you're confused, you feel lonely, you're numb, and most importantly you're lost. You're heart feels lost." Should we get started on your makeup? She finished.

"Can I ask you something unnie?" I asked as she started applying make up on me.

"Yes, anything." She replied.

"Do you ever feel like you're thinking of something, but you don't know what you're thinking?" I asked.

"Close your eyes. And honestly..no. Why do you feel like that?" She asked.

"I feel like that all the time. Like something is always on my mind, but I just don't quite know what it is." I said.

"Is it possibly a someone and not something? When do you know you're mind is on the right track?" She asked.

I thought about it and only one answer kept coming up. Choi Seungcheol.

"I feel my mind working right when I'm with....Seungcheol." I finished.

Tears were starting to form again, but I held them back. I couldn't let unnie see my tears while she was doing my makeup.

"Sumi, is Seungcheol the reason why you're confused these days? What happened between you two?" Unnie asked me.

"I can't cry, so I'll just say it quick. After I tell you, you can't ask anymore questions. Seungcheol and I started dating, but just broke up yesterday. He said it was okay to break up, so we decided to let each other go. It's nothing big though." I finished.

"Nothing big?! You are confused and don't know what going on  because of him. If anyone knew Seungcheol then it'd be me. I know my younger brother, and when he wants something he goes for it. He doesn't give up, that's the way our parents raised us. I'll speak with Seungcheol after this, Dino invited me over there. Do you want to come?" She asked.

I shook my head and she just nodded. The rest of the time went by slowly and was filled with nothing but quietness. I wanted to listen to some music so it wouldn't be too awkward. "Unni, is it okay if we turned on some music?" I asked. She nodded and I connected my phone to my speaker. These days I've been listening to Day6. My favorite song from them was, "Out of my mind." (True story...)

---------

After the song ended, Seventeen 'Mansae' came on. I smiled as I heard each one of their voices. I missed them. The last time I spoke to them was the day of the sleepover. My smiled faded as Seungcheol's voice came on. No tears fell, only a smile plastered on my face. I really did miss those guys, maybe I should go with Suzy noona to the dorm.
