Prodigy

Chapter 12

*Normal point of view*

After Dahae hung up on Jimin, we went to the back to get tubs of ice cream. She put on a sad romantic movie. She was eating a tub of Cookies n' Cream ice cream while I ate a tub or Caramel ice cream. My phone rang again and I looked to see who it was. It was Jongsuk so I answered it.

Minah: Yobuseyo?

Jongsuk: Minah. What happened?

I sighed and told him everything. When I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING.

Jongsuk: I'm sorry about that.

Minah: It's fine. You shouldn't be the one apologizing.

Jongsuk: How far are you from the airport. I'll come pick you up.

Minah: You don't have to.

Jongsuk: I want to.

Minah: I'm about 3 hours away.

Jongsuk: Alright. I'll be there.

Once we got there. We saw Jongsuk and I thanked Dahae for everything. Jongsuk drove to his house and got comfortable.

Jongsuk: *smiles* I doubt you know this but I'm pretty good at cooking. I'll cook us some dinner.

Minah: *smiles* Awesome. Call me if you need any help.

Jongsuk: *laughs* Alright but not today.

I smiled and he started preparing everything.

Jongsuk: You know.. If you ever need help. I'm here for you.

Minah: Thank you.. In a way, I kind of wished I lost it to you instead. You were the first boy in school to show me any kindness when I needed it. I understand why girls call you the schools prince. I started liking you and I wanted to hang out with you but so many things happened.. I don't really think I wanted to hang out with you because I liked you. I wanted to hang out with you because I felt like you were my first male friend and you were one of the nicest guys I ever met. I wanted that kindness and positive energy around me. I felt safe around you. I feel like I'm starting to regret losing it to him.

Jongsuk: I don't really think it matters who you lost it to.. I lost mine to my first love but she's not around anymore.

Minah: I'm sorry to hear that.

Jongsuk: .. Ah! Ani. She's still alive but I mean she's not in Seoul anymore.

Minah: If you loved her, why didn't you chase after her?

Jongsuk: She had a dream so I let her go.

Minah: What was her dream?

Jongsuk: *smiles* Modeling. I think you'd be a great model.

Minah: *smiles* You think so?

Jongsuk: *smiles* I know so, so let me ask you for a favor.

Minah: What kind of favor?

Jongsuk: I'm supposed to be modeling for this magazine next week. The girl I'm modeling with is.. Not very attractive. I wanted a prettier model that I would have a better connection with so they told me to find one. That will be you.

Minah: I'm flattered but why me?

Jongsuk: You're beautiful, You're inexperienced but I'm sure this'll be good publicity for both of us, we'd cooperate well together.. And you're one of the only girls I talk to. I don't really pay attention to the girls in school but you're different.

Minah: *smiles* Good different, right?

Jongsuk: *smiles* Very good different.

Minah: *smiles* That's good to hear.
