Third Wheel ;; Yoon Sanha

Il

Hong Iseul, Jo Bora and Yoon Sanha.

We've been friends for around 9 years now.

Me and Sanha have been neighbours since our diaper days and Bora moved in the house next to mine in kindergarten.

The three of us always clicked well.

These past nine years have been amazing for me with two great friends until I realised a few weeks back that I'm starting to like Sanha.

I have not reached that stage where I get all nervous around him and stare at him from afar and think of him all the time and draw little hearts all over the page instead of taking notes. No.

I'd never be like that.

But I can feel myself being excited every time he tells me something important or wants me to give my opinion on something.

This happens a lot since we are best friends and we always ask for each other's opinions all the time.

Bora and Sanha are close too but I'd say we both are closer.

Bora is like the perfect girl best friend anyone can ask for. Especially when we both go guy watching.

Me and Bora don't have any secrets and we try to tell each other everything.

She does tell me everything but I don't.

Not after she confessed to me last week saying that she has been in love with Sanha for quite some time now.

I didn't know how to take that news. I wanted to be happy for her and support her but at the same time I wanted to scream.

But since I am stupid and I always put others first, I didn't tell her about my crush and tried my best to be happy for her.

Even though me and Sanha are closer, they both would make the ideal couple.

They always quarrel and make fun of each other and call each other nicknames all the time and make the whole class notice them.

Not in a desperate for attention way though.

But I'm not like that. I don't like to attract attention and keep to my two friends.

Which does attract attention because they are not introverts like me but still only like 1/200 of the school's population know me and even they choose to ignore me so I'm fine with it.

Sanha makes up for all the times I'm being ignored by giving me his bright smile when he sits next to or when he gives me his pizza slice during lunch or when he tells me I look pretty.

But I can't help but feel bitter when he also does it to Bora as well.

I feel pathetic to feel jealous of my best friend and even more so to be in love with my other best friend.

I am Hong Iseul and this is the story of me being the third wheel all the time.
