[Exopink: Baekmi] The game of destiny

The truth of the promise

It was the day of the school festival and also the last day of baekhyun and taehyung's challenge. Both were nervous and also curious about the result thinking about whom she will choose. It is either this side or that side. Baekhyun and bomi were in the house. He was tensed, though he is confident that bomi loves him but he was also worried about bomi's decision of choosing one. Today their challenge is going to come to an end.

Baekhyun saw bomi wearing the birthday dress he gave her. He smiled looking at her "Why did you wear this?" he asked. She smiled "Because I like it". He asked "Why?". She said "Because you gave it". He hugged her tightly as he was touched "Bomi, always be with me, okay? Don't ever leave me". She broke the hug and caressed his cheek "What's wrong? I will never leave you. I am not going anywhere silly". Baekhyun caressed her cheek "I don't know why but my heart is troubled today. It feels like something is going to happen". He kissed her forehead and smiled.

Baekhyun got a call from his friends and he told bomi that they need him for some work "I will go ahead. You can come later, okay? I will tell naeun to pick you up". She nodded "Be careful". He held her hands "Thank you for being there for me". She smiled "Thank you too". He left and bomi was waiting for naeun .She heard the sound of the car and rushed but her dress stuck to the table and tore. Bomi was bewildered "My dress...baekhyun gave me this.." she said feeling bad. Naeun came inside and told her to change. Bomi was troubled thinking "I don't know why it feels like something is going to happen". Naeun gave her a dress "Wear this" she said. Bomi froze as that dress was given by taehyung on her birthday as a gift. Naeun pushed her "Go and change, we are late" and bomi had to agree.

On the other hand taehyung decided to tell the truth to bomi. He wanted to win her truthfully not by lying. So he decided to tell her the truth today. He knows that it is either baekhyun or him. He will either win or lose. So he decided why not the result be fair. He took the picture of his childhood where bomi and baekhyun were promising each other at the back. He said looking at the picture "Bomi, you will choose me, right?".He sighed and stuffed it in his pocket and left to school.

It was evening; baekhyun was doing the last minute preparations along with some people when he spotted bomi. He waved at her and was also confused looking at her dress. Before he could ask, bomi told him the reason. He patted her head "It's okay, i will buy another one for you". She said pouting "But I liked that dress". He giggled "It's okay". They enjoyed their time together strolling around the school, eating delicious food in the stalls.

Taehyung came near bomi "Let's go" he said grabbing her hand. She looked at baekhyun and he told her to go with him. Taehyung and baekhyun looked at each other as they know they are in the same place. Somehow, they understand each other. They know that both are going through the same thing. Taehyung and bomi went to different stalls and played games. Bomi feels comfortable with taehyung but just as a friend. She always thought she loves him but baekhyun was the one who introduced her to the feeling of love. He said " You wore the dress i gave you". She smiled. Taehyung said "Bomi, whatever you decision is...Remember we will always be good friends". She nodded "Yes, we will always be friends". Bomi wondered "Why is he saying this all of a sudden?". She found that he is unusually weird today. It's like something is going on in his mind.

It was time for the festival dance, baekhyun asked bomi "Care for a dance, my princess?". She smiled "Yes, my prince" she said. Both danced together near the bonfire. He placed his hand on her waist and pulled her closer. She blushed staring in his eyes. He asked "Bomi?". She said "Hmm". He leaned closer and whispered "I love you". He continued "Can you give me the answer? Do you love me?".

She blushed looking down , avoiding eye contact. He lifted her chin "Is it a yes or no?" he asked nervously anticipating an answer. She bit her lip blushing hard. Taehyung disturbed them. Bomi was flustered. "May i have a dance with you?" he asked. Bomi was puzzled. She glanced at baekhyun and he gestured her to go. She took his hand and went with him. Bomi danced with taehyung smiling widely as he was talking about their childhood. He said "Remember we used to eat ice cream in the rain". She giggled "And you used to come to school the next day with snot running down your nose". Taehyung felt embarrassed "Those were good days right bomi?". She nodded "Yeah, those are all memorable moments for me". Bomi felt sad again looking at taehyung and also baekhyun who was watching them from afar. She excused saying she needs to go somewhere and left.

She saw jungkook and some boys giggling forming a group. She was passing by but something flew and fell on her face. She saw something on the ground and took it "It is photograph" she said turning around. She was shocked to see that "This is taehyung's picture of that party". Her eyes widened more when she found what was in the background. She saw her making a pinky promise with a boy. She widened her eyes "That's me...What is the meaning of this? Who is that?" she said troubled. Jungkook came near her. He said pointing at the picture "This is taehyung". Bomi asked "Do you know, who is this boy over here?". He shook his head "I don't know". Taemin interrupted them "I know". Bomi asked "You do? Who is it? Please tell me". Taemin said "It is baekhyun, he told me about your childhood promise". Bomi's tears rolled down her cheeks "Baekhyun...". She closed her mouth and ran holding the picture. She fell on her knees in a corner "Baekhyun....i promised baekhyun....not taehyung....That's the reason he always talks about our promise". She smiled widely, tears still flowing down her eyes "That means my promise was with baekhyun not taehyung....I am so happy....Why didn't you tell me before stupid...I love you....i love you so much baekhyun....my promise and my heart belongs to only you....only my baekhyun".

She wiped her tears simultaneously standing up "I have to tell him....that I love him....i love him". She tried searching for him but could not find him. She called him over phone and he answered "Bomi, where are you?" he asked. Bomi's happiness was out of the world. He asked again as she wasn't answering him "Bomi??". She smiled widely "Baekhyun". He panicked "Bomi, what's wrong? Are you okay?". She said smiling widely "I....i want to give you the answer you are waiting for....baekhyun, I want to tell you something" she said. Baekhyun asked "Are you okay?". She smiled "I have never been this fine...Baekhyun, come to our class. I will be waiting for you...to give you....your answer". Bomi wanted to give him the answer directly rather than on the phone. She kissed her phone after ending the call "My baekhyun...He is my childhood love...He is my little prince....Bomi...That's the reason he said he loves you when he first met you....i love him too...I want to confess as soon as possible". She ran to tell him that she loves him too.
