Chapter 13

Truc

"Too hard for you? It was hard for me! I didn't understand why you were doing this to me! I didn't know why you broke up with me! I didn't know if you loved me."

I jumped, startled at Hoseok yelling at my sister. I was confused about what was going on. Who was Hoseok to my sister? How do they know each other? Millions of questions ran through my head as I waited on the couch. I had lost my appetite to eat the chicken that was now sitting on the table in front of me. After seeing my sister cry when seeing Hoseok, I had become worried and confused.

I now sat in the car with my sister thinking about what had just happened. There was a strong tension in the air and it was starting to become awkward. I brought my thoughts back to when Hoseok asked me if we could still be friends. Of course I would, why wouldn't I? It's not like I did anything but what if my sister won't allow it? She was sad about it after from what I heard and she is Hoseok's first love.

"How do you know Hoseok?" I say to my sister.

"He...he was my ex-boyfriend," she says to me quietly. I silently nod and give up asking her question knowing that she will become upset if I ask her anymore.

"Are you dating him?" she suddenly says to me and glances at me with sad eyes. Is she...jealous?

"No don't worry I'm not dating him," I say with a small reassuring smile. I can see that in her eyes that she's relieved and turns the radio on. Urban Zakapa's song "I Don't Love You" comes up and I can see that in her eyes she starts to tear up. She sniffles and quickly wipes her eyes. She quickly turns off the radio and sighs.

We reach the house and she stops the car. My sister's face is blank and she sits in the car looking straight ahead. I begin to get out the car and realised she wasn't not coming out. I sit back down and look at her.

"Lynh, you know you can tell me anything, right?" I say with a hint of worry in my voice. She nods and starts the car again.

"Let's go out to eat. I'll tell you more about my relationship with Hoseok," she says.

"How about mum an-"I say but she interrupts me.

"They've gone to visit grandma so they won't be back until another few days," she says with a small smile. I nod and look straight ahead.

She drives to a small diner and we begin to walk out the car. We walk in and sit in a small booth in the back of the place.

"What do you want?" Lynh says to me whilst looking at the menu.

"Uh, I'll just have a chocolate milkshake and some fries," I say while she nods.

The waiter comes over to our table and takes our orders. When he leaves, I look at my sister and see her staring at her wrist. She has a small bracelet with a small angel with a bell on it. She spins the bracelet round and round and watches as the charm moves left and right.

"Was that from him?" I say to her. She looks at me and nods and lightly smiles.

"He gave it to me on our one month," she says with a small laugh.

I sit there confused about why she would wear it. Wouldn't she feel sad about the memories between Hoseok and her?

The waiter comes back and gives our food to us. Lynh says thank you quietly and waits for them to leave.

"Why did you two break up?" I say as I poke at my food.

"I had doubts and thought that relationships should be made of trust and not love but I was stupid and broke up with him," she says as she sips her milkshake as if it was nothing but I knew deep down inside she had many regrets.

I decided after to not ask any more questions and began eating my food whilst she asked me about school.

"Do you still like Xiumin?" Lynh says with a smirk. I blush and quickly look down from her gaze. She laughs and wipes her mouth with a napkin.

Of course my sister knew about my crush on Xiumin. We've been really close since we're young and told everything to each other. Well, maybe not everything. She never told me about Hoseok. I had heard from her friends about her secret boyfriend but she never told me anything. I asked her many questions but she told me I was too young for that kind of stuff and said that she would tell me when I'm older.

"Does he like you as well?" She says to me. I shake my head and she gives me a reassuring smile.

"There's always other fish in the sea," she says to and laughs. I laugh along with her.

We finish and start to leave the store. Lynh goes to pay for the food whilst I go wait outside. I check my phone to see (2) messages from Hoseok asking me about my sister.

Has ur sister told u everything? Do you know now?

Is she still upset?

I sigh and open up my phone to answer the texts.

Yeah, she told me. She's fine now. We just went out to eat.

I wait for a reply and see that he's read it but doesn't say anything else.

My sister comes out from the store and I put my phone into my pocket not knowing that Hoseok had sent me another message to give to my sister.

"Let's go home. It's late and you have school tomorrow," she says to me as we get in the car. She starts the car and begins going home. The ride home was silent but not as awkward as last time.

We reach the house and we go our spate ways. Once I go into my room, I quickly get ready for bed and think about the day I just had.

Something just doesn't feel right.
