Chapter 33

We stare at each others for quite long. Until she decided to talk.

"Oh hi Haejung and Jinhwan." She gave us a warm smile. Not like Hyelin, the both of us didn't smile, we're shocked, I'm sure she is too.

"Hi Hyelin." I said with a smile, trying not to change this conversation awkward.

I nudged Jinhwan arm, want him to greet her too. And gladly he did "Hi Hyelin."

"Well it's very awkward of you guys standing at there. Why not have a seat." She let us sit in front of her and we kindly did.

Oh dear, I hope this won't get awkward.

"How are you Hyelin?" I asked, nervous for the answer. If she said she's not okay, then I'll be dying with guilty.

"I'm fine, quite good actually." She said while showing us a bright smile, guess she really is fine." What about you guys? I guess you guys are in a relationship now, am I right?"

I chuckled and nodded my head slyly.

"What a good news! Even tho I know you guys will end up together from the very start." Me and Hyelin shared a smile. She really is kind hearted, even from the very start I met her.

I look at Jinhwan, he haven't make a sound ever since we saw her. Exclude the time when I nudged him.

I eyed him a 'Say something' look when our gaze met.

He frowned and look back at the table.

"Hae and Jinhwan, your drinks." Laura suddenly came and placed our drinks on the table.

After saying our thank you Laura left.

"So... Hwan ah, you listened to me?" Hyelin asked Jinhwan, even though she called her Hwan, but I'm not jealous anymore.

Jinhwan looked up and stare at Hyelin."Yes..."

"Good, I'm really happy for you too, I really am." She said and finished the last sip of her drink.

"Well, I need to go now, need to go back to school for the club meeting." She stood up with her bag and walked away while waving her hand to us. "Bye maybe I'll see you guys some other days."

"Why aren't you talking?" I asked Jinhwan who already moved to the opposite of me.

He sighed and look at me straight in the eyes. "It's awkward...and after all of those things that happened, I don't know how to talk to her anymore."

I look down at the drink and start thinking. I can't force him he's right.

My phone suddenly start to rang. I quickly take out my phone from my school blazer.

Omma calling...

I answered the call after checking the caller ID.

"Hello?" I said trough the phone.

"Hae ah, can you come home now? Your dad and I suggest that we should have some family time since he is going to Japan later."

I nodded my head, but realizing she can't see me. "Oh yah sure."

I'm about to end the call but she talked again. "Your dad said don't bring anyone else, not even Jinhwan. He said is family time. I know it's funny, Jinhwan is basically our family already!"

I quickly stole a glance at Jinhwan, who are looking at me with the straw in his mouth.

"Stop it mom, it's funny, I'm still in high school."
