"i don't even know... he just dragged me away from hoseok." i complained through the phone, talking to jihye.
"what did he say?"
"he said nothing except for let's go home." i said, imitating jimin's voice.
"wait, you two living together?" she gasps.
"what? no. you're thinking the wrong thing."
"then what?"
"haven't i told you already that we're neighbors now?"
i hear jihye laughing so hard, "of course..." she stopped for a moment, "...you didn't tell me."
"oh, i didn't? well, atleast now you know." i chuckled.
"fine, whatever. you said you need help. what is it?"
"um what should i do, girl?"
i've been thinking this the whole time before i called jihye. it frustrates me, really. i don't even know how to face him when we meet at school. i'm not a shy person but, i still don't know what to do. i even requested the teacher to change my seat beside jimin. how is that possible i can avoid him?
"oh gosh eunjung, don't overreact. just keep it cool. act like it didn't happen."
right. keep it cool, eunjung. he doesn't speak that much so he'll probably ignore me.
"right," i faked a laugh, "i'm overreacting. thanks for listening to me though."
she laughed and bid goodbye. i guess i have to relief myself from that situation earlier.
i've decided to send hoseok a message to apologize for that scenario.
to: hoseok
hey, i'm sorry for what happened earlier. even i was shookt. aaaa sorry T^T
"who are you texting to, missy?" i was surprised when i saw my mom peeking behind me.
"a friend, mom."
"wait, hoseok's the name?" mom continues to look at my cellphone.
"um yeah, why?"
"jung hoseok?"
"huh? yeah, i'm asking you why."
"why are you texting your cousin?"
WHAT?
***
finally got here at school. i stopped when a guy in front of me blocks the way. i looked up to see who it was and it was hoseok.
"hey there." he greeted.
"hey couz." i laughed as i teased him.
i still can't believe he's my cousin. mom told me yesterday that he's my aunt hyeseun and uncle hyungwo's son. aunt hyeseun and my mom are sisters. then i called hoseok yesterday and talked about it, we were both surprised. thankfully, i'm not dating him or what or else i'll be a dead meat already.
"whatever, couz your face. let's go now, we're gonna be late."
we both went inside the classroom and good thing, the teacher hasn't arrived yet.
i felt uneasy as soon as i sat beside jimin. i want to ask him why he did that because he just left me hanging but at the same time, i don't want to, maybe he'll just ignore me again.
but i ended up doing the first one. i asked him because i'm still curious as hell.
"jimin, i'm asking you. why did you do that?"
and as expected, he ignored me. but before the teacher arrives, i've heard him mutter "i hate you."
OKAY, WHAT?
