Chapter 7: Moments

Jihoon P.O.V

It was a very quiet night. My room was dimly lighted. I felt a comfortable and cozy vibes.

I walked heading to the windows in my room and slid aside the curtains.

The city lights shined brightly overwhelmed the lights from the stars above.

There were only handful of cars that drove on the streets. I love this moment the most. It felt weirdly cozy.

I still had assignments to do but I'm neither motivated nor energized to finish it.

I decided to took a stroll. It was cold outside especially during nighttime. I grabbed my black zip up hoodie and a grey fleece joggers.

The weather was cold enough that my breath condensed into water vapour.

As I walked down the sloped street, Eunha kept running through my thoughts for no reasons, unintentionally. The way she smiled, I enjoyed it every seconds.

But I promised myself not to fell in love anymore. After being ignored completely by Nayeon, I decided to settle down first and focus on my work. I felt terrible remembering it.

I stopped in the middle of the walkway for awhile, looked at a building beside me. It was Sinb's house.

It's been a long time since we last met and talked though. Her house was dark, no lights to be seen plus it's already 12:24 in the morning. I think she slept.

Suddenly, flashbacks and memories flashed through my mind.

'I walked along the corridors while holding tons of books. A girl suddenly pushed me from behind. It was Sinb, she and her friends laughed and gagged about the way I fell.'

'"Yah what's your problem?!" I yelled.
"What do you want to do about it?" She sticked her tongue out and kicked my food that fell from the table.'

I smiled thinking about it. She used to bully every students in the school including her classmates. Not to forget her horrifying punch. Once tasted, you'll never sleep comfortably.

But she's 'kind'. She's a type of person that are easy to be friend with. It was shocking to realize how bright and friendly she was. I chuckled recalling back memories and started walking.

I rubbed my hands hoping to warm myself up. The wind blew from the northeast relative to me, strong enough to floats my hair up. It was basically a cold and windy night. Walking alone is boring and it's impossible to ask any of my friends to join me tonight. Maybe a call would break the loneliness. 

I slid my hand into my pocket to pull my phone out, I felt the slight warmth. I scrolled down the screen in search of any names to be picked.

I stopped scrolling at 'E'. I saw Eunha. I glanced around me, thinking about calling her. There were numerous possibilities. Whether she's already slept or wide awake and not answering my call.

I felt a sea of anxiety deep down. My palms were sweaty. I pressed 'call'. The phone beeped. Then someone picked up.

"Nuguseyo?" a female sounded somewhat drowsy. But I'm very sure it was her, the voice was familiar.

"Eunha? Is it you?" my voice trembled in excitement and tenseness. I saw a bench facing the road in the distance right in front of me. I put my left hand in my pocket and started heading towards it. My legs felt like burning a little after quite a long walk from my house.

"Jihoon?" she astonished.

"Aren't you sleepy now? Your voice sounds funny." I chuckled.

"Shut up." she giggled. "I just woke up."
