Chapter 5

Hyera's POV

I arrive at home safely and I found my mom was looking at me while crossing her arms. I know this kind of look. It must be something that she want to know from me. "Where did you come from?" I grin to her and she still looking at me with her serious face. "Hm, playground?" My mom let out a heavy sigh and tell me to sit down on the sofa. "Why?" I sit as soon as my mom told me to. Maybe this is actually about a serious matter? "You know, Hyera. You're getting older." I just nod along even though I'm confused. "When you're getting older, you have to find a job." I let out a heavy sigh and look on the floor. "I know about that, mom. But you know, my result is bad. They won't accept me with this bad result." My mom let out a sigh and pat my shoulder. "Maybe, they will accept you." I hug the fluffy pillow beside me and look at my mom while pouting. "How?" She smile and I just keep pouting. "Just don't give up! That's all, sweetheart. You should take a rest now." Maybe my mom was right. I have to try at least! Should I go find a job near my house? Jung Hye Ra, can you just think about that tomorrow? Okay I'm talking to myself so don't mind me.

—————

I woke up happily today but not really happy? Someone just ruined my mood about a few minutes ago. Of course, it's my lovely sister. Please give an applause to her because she just ruined my mood today. Before I leave my home sweet home, I stay in my room for about an hours. I was just thinking about whether I should accept Baekhyun's offer or not. Maybe I should accept his offer since my mind can't think of any job that suits me. Actually, I've been thinking to work at a cafe because I like eating and that's why I want to work there. I would love to work at a bakery since I like the smell of the freshly baked cake from the oven. But, they won't accept me with my bad result right?

And so,

I ask Baekhyun to help me and he agrees. What a kind guy.

Flashback

Actually, I used to cry a lot when I'm still around 4 years old. And back then, a cute little boy and taller than me was always there for me. He was standing in front of me while streching out his hand. "Don't cry! Even if you're upset, you can't give up so easily!" I always trust him. I trust him so much.

And that person is Byun Baekhyun.

Even though I'm not a kid that used to cry a lot like before, he still cares about me a lot. When we're in the primary school, he was like a big brother to me. He also protect me when I'm in danger. Both of us got into the same high school too. We would usually went to the canteen together, walked home together, studied together and I never knew that people does find our relationship was interesting. They always thought that he is my boyfriend. I did explained to them that we're not in a serious relationship but some of them look dissapointed and some of them look glad.

Oh! about Raeyoo, we do hangout a lot back then when we're still a high schooler. We ate and went shopping and ate and went shopping and

The same routine continues on.

Baekhyun avoid me for no reason at that one time. Maybe he does has a reason? I don't know but I feel really empty when he's avoiding me. He didn't talk to me at all and it hurts me to the point that I can't help but cried. Why? Because I don't want to lose him.

It hurts so much.

Now, I'm studying at- what is the college name again? Okay nevermind. No one cares anyway. I promise to my mom that I will do my best to pass the final exam and Raeyoo cheered for me. She was at another department so I explain it enough right?

And about Baekhyun,

He's okay now! I'm so glad that he's avoiding me because of the gossip that other students kept spreading and not because of hatred. He cheered for me too and I am so happy that he still cares about me. I'm studying right now but the loud knock on the door is making me annoyed. "Jung Hye Mi, your precious younger sister is currently studying for her final exam. Can you please keep quiet and talk if there is something that you want to say?" My sister rolled her eyes and immediately walked away. Glad that she understood. I need to focus. Yes, focus!

After my final exam, I hope that my result is fine than what I imagine it to be but it turns out the other way around. I'm dissapointed in myself. I keep those result from my mom but, she will know it sooner or later. Baekhyun said that he want to meet me today at the park and I agreed. I just need someone who can comfort me right now.

I went toward the park and saw Baekhyun was sitting on the bench. His face was full of hope. I can't bare to look at him because I don't want him to know about my result. "How about your result?" He asked me as soon as I sat beside him. "I-I don't know how to tell my mom about this, Baek." I said while looking at him with teary eyes. I started crying because I don't want to keep this secretly from my mom. Baekhyun know that my result is not that great as soon as I cried. He pulled me toward him and pat my back. "Just cry." My tears kept falling like a waterfall and he pat me on the back gently while saying 'it's okay to let it all out.'

I seriously don't want to lose him.

End of flashback

When I was busy smiling to myself, I suddenly saw Baekhyun leaning his back at the door while crossing his arm. Wait, since when did he get here? "Spacing out again?" I let out a small chuckle and nod. He approach me and sit at the edge of my bed. "Are you thinking about me?"

What?!

"N-Nope! I was reminiscing those times when we're in the primary school, high school and college." He laugh and immediately pinch my cheeks. "Still, it's about me too, right? Am I wrong?"

LET ME SLAP HIM-

Nevermind.

"Stop this now you cinnamon roll." He stop laughing and I look away while pouting. Even though I really like to hear his laughter but I can't say it. "Cinnamon roll? Wow I like that nickname! Am I the first one that got those nickname?" Suddenly, I feel the urge to tease him.

"No. I said like that to Chanyeol before too."

His face expression suddenly change. Is he mad at me? "Really? I don't believe you." I laugh and shook my head many times. "Fine. You're the first." His smile appear again and he pats my head continuously. "Aww! I love you." Baekhyun, that words should be forbidden when you're with me! I can't stop blushing right now and I really want to disappear.

And it's all because of you.
