FAIRYTALE LOVE: THE LITTLE MERMAID ; baekji

CHAPTER XI

"Ex-boyfriend?" Eunji repeated and didn't miss the look Namjoo gave to the two hiding boys so she followed her gaze "You mean...that guy?" she continued as she saw Jongin peeked.

"Yes, it's him" Namjoo said as she look again, this time with Kyungsoo peeking. And when Kyungsoo saw her, he immediately hid again.

"Oh" Eunji's mouth formed an 'o' shape as she nodded slowly and examined Namjoo. She looks cute and innocent. She kept biting her lower lip, must be because she's nervous. She looks like a good kid and so she wondered what happened that made her to leave Jongin. Maybe she didn't love him anymore, because she called him as her 'ex-boyfriend' when Jongin said that they didn't even have a proper break-up. It means that for her, they already ended their relationship. But if she didn't love him anymoe, then why was she in there? "Do you wanna talk to him? Should I call him for you"

"Woah wait up. Now? B-but...I mean... no please, dont" Namjoo panicked

"Okay okay, calm down. But, isn't that the reason why you always came here? So that you can talk with him?"

"Yeah but... I don't think he'll talk to me"

"Yeah you're right" Eunji said "You know, he's trying to move on from you" Eunji said as she remembered Jongin's words.

Hearing those, Namjoo lowered her head. "I thought he still loves me, but he's trying to forget me now"

"He still loves you, but you see it's hard for him" Eunji said

"It's hard for me too" Namjoo said

"Well I didn't really know the whole story, and I know that I don't have the right whatsoever, but I hope when the both of you are ready, you can finally talk about everything and resolve your issue" Eunji said sincerely and reached into Namjoo's hand "He's my friend and it's sad seeing him like that, you know, he's so confused as to why you left him"

"Wait, what?" Namjoo asked, surprised by Eunji's words "Me?" she pointed at herself "Left him?"

"Yes, that's what Jongin have told me" Eunji said, confused by her reaction

"Who's Jongin?" Namjoo asked "Wait, unni are we talking about the same guy here?"

"Your ex-boyfriend is not Jongin?" Eunji asked, already feeling the heat on her cheeks due to embarrassment

"No. It's Do Kyungsoo"

"Kyungsoo? That guy had a girlfriend? For real?" Eunji can't believe that Do Kyungsoo, the creepy and quiet boy had a girlfirend before.

"Kyungsoo" Eunji called when she entered the kitchen

"Hey did the girl said anything?" Jongin asked, as if more interested while Kyungsoo just continued with what the crabs that he's cooking.

"Kyungsoo, she wanted to talk to you" eunji said then faced Jongin " And why are you the one asking? You're not Namjoo's ex-boyfriend"

Jongin just chuckled like a child " I just got excited"

With a serious face and voice, Kyungsoo headed to the door and said " take care of here first"

The two, wanting to watch what will happen followed to the counter and watched Kyungsoo that was heading to Namjoo. Namjoo didn't know that Kyungsoo was near because she's facing the other way.

Then an orange haired guy suddenly barged in the restaurant. Eunji noticed that kind of resembled Baekhyun. The guy was looking around as if trying to find someone and stopped when she spotted Namjoo.
