When I Opened My Eyes (Yugyeom)

Chapter 5

Besides the fact that I don't know who Yugyeom is to me, I would also like to know where this Jackson person fits in.

Mark-oppa had just come to pick me up and surprise surprise, Jackson  and Yugyeom tagged along as well.

Jackson sat upfront with oppa and Yugyeom beside me in the back.

I observed something weird.

He seems closer with Jackson than is is with me.

Okay, I'm being a bit too observant today.

Once we've arrived, "Ah you're back. I have a surprise for you guys." My mom sqeuled, "Is appa back?" I asked soflty, "Did he come home from his trip? It's been a while. A long while. You said he'd be home soon. Is he here today?" I was hopeful.

Everyone stayed silent.

He's not back.

"Appa's not home. It's something better. Something you like."

I'd like it if appa came home. He hasn't been home in years.

Upon walking into the kitchen I noticed a cake. A chocolate and caramel cake. It looked so pretty. Pretty good.

"I baked this for you all so feel free to have as much as you want. I'm going shopping. Be back in a bit." She waved and left.

Yugyeom cut four slices and handed it out.

Mark-oppa looked over at Yugyeom, then Jackson, then to me, "Yeon, you eat first. It's only polite since you're a lady and all." Jackson scratched his nape.

"Okay." I took a bite. Everyone stared at me with expectation burning in their eyes, "It... tastes good?" I say hoping that's what they were expecting. They sigh and begin to eat.

Did I say something wrong?

"Yeon-ah, would you like to go watch a movie? I'm only asking because Mark-hyung and Jackson-hyung left. It's okay if you say no." We were sitting in my room. He broke the silence by asking that question.

"Sure."

Why did I just agree?

"Great! You should change out of your uniform. I'll be in the living room waiting for you." He beamed and left.

Did he indirectly ask me on a date?
Why did I agree? I barely know him.
I agreed because I feel safe around him.
But why do I feel safe around him?
