Healing and Regret

| Chapter 4 Pt. 1 |

[A/N: Yeah, I know it's been a long time, but if you know me, you know I'm lazy. Also, this is going to be broken up because I'm lazy, so only one perspective for now.]

Next Day...

Quynh's POV:

I woke up with a start. I looked at the clock and it read "10:27 AM". Is Leo going to be there again?? I sat up and walked to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth and did my business. I went to the dresser and tried to find some decent clothes to wear. I wore the clothes I could find and I went down the kitchen after getting ready. [A/N: Sounds like a bad story so far, sorry, I don't care.] "Bye, mom, I'm going to the park!" I said as I left after grabbing a granola bar to eat.

I reached the park and I sat down as I looked around to see if Leo was here. I sighed and checked my phone. Ten minutes passed without any sign of Leo. I guess not. I put down my phone and stood up to throw away my granola bar wrapper and started to walk towards the exit. As I was a few feet away from the exit, someone tapped my shoulder. I jumped in surprise and turned around to look at the person.

"You forgot your phone at the bench," the unfamiliar man said.

I grabbed the phone from his man and said, "Thank you."

As I was putting my phone in my pocket, the man looked at me closely and then his face lit up. "Quynh! Is that you?" he said.

"H-How do you know my name?" I said, confused and weirded out. What if he is a stalker?? O-Or a creep who takes young people a-and... does things with them?? [A/N: Hahaha, this is the story of someone who does not have many friends.]

"You don't remember me, Quynh? We were classmates back in 7th grade," he said, smiling.

I thought for a while, then answered, "Nope, doesn't ring a bell."

He chuckled and said, "Hyunseung? Jang Hyunseung? Do you remember now??"

I shook my head. "Nope."

"I was that guy who had braces. I had a crush on you. Remember??" he replied. [A/N: Haha, like someone would have a crush on Quynh.]

My face lit up. "You're that guy who had the emo hair!"

He nodded and laughed. I laughed along with him. "Yep. That's me!"

I studied his face a bit more and exclaimed, "Wow, you look way better!"

He looked at me, "Is that supposed to be a compliment....?"

I nodded and continued staring at him. Damn, he looks very handsome now.. Why did I not like him in 7th grade... That was a huge mistake. But what about Leo?

He stared at me weirdly and asked, "Are you done looking at me now....?"

My face flushed with embarrassment as I said, "Sorry, you just look so... different."

He chuckled and said, "Um, thank you, I guess. Well, if you don't mind, I think I should head home now."

"Oh ok. It was nice seeing you again, Hyunseung. Hope we can meet next time," I said, hiding my disappointment that he was leaving so soon.

"Why don't we exchange phone numbers? We could still keep in touch...?" he said.

"Sure," I said, trying to sound cool when I was exploding with happiness inside. I handed him my phone and he gave me his as we began to put our numbers in each other's contacts.

After we were done and returned our phones, he said, "Well, it was nice meeting you, Quynh, I should get going now, bye."

"Bye," I said, watching him leave the park and drive home.

I began to walk home after his car was out of sight. I really like Hyunseung now.. But what about Leo...? Who do I pick?? Does Hyunseung still like me after I rejected him for a year...? What about Leo? We literally only met once.. Ugh, I don't know..

Author's Note:

Hey there again! It's been like a month or two, lol. But! I am back with a pretty horrible chapter. It's not much but deal with it. Part 2 is going to be published later, not soon though, with the other perspectives. This is Quynh's part so she better be happy she gets her own chapter/part. Now, it's time to say goodbye. Bye.
