Do You Love Me Like The Way I Love You? || SF9

Episode 13: ROAR

Inseong's P.O.V.

At dinner time, Inseong watches as Hwiyoung barely says a word, silently eating his dinner. Suddenly, Inseong approaches him and asks about what is bothering him.

"Hwiyoung?" I tapped Hwiyoung gently upon the shoulder as he was about ready to head to bed. He quickly turned around.

"Hyung?" he stated, a little startled by my sudden tap on his shoulder.

"Is it alright if I ask what's been bothering you lately?"

"Hmm... What do you mean? I'm fine, nothing's bothering me," I could tell that he was certainly lying given the fact that he was completely avoiding eye contact with me.

"Yah! Kim Youngkyun! You're obviously not okay, mind telling me what's up?" Raising a brow, I let him sit beside me on the couch in the living room. Hwiyoung hesitated for a moment, exhaled, and turned to face me.

"Hyung, I like someone, ok," he stated after releasing yet another sigh.

"Oh, you do?" I stated, trying not to sound shocked. Gently, I gave him a pat upon the shoulder. "Well, what's so wrong with liking someone?"

Hwiyoung exhaled once again. "Well, what if this someone likes someone else?"

I rubbed my chin, thinking of a good answer to give him, but I just couldn't come up with anything. So, instead I just reassured him that everything would be alright and to probably try and confess to this girl. However, I could tell that by the more I talked, the more and more Hwiyoung seemed to get uncomfortable with me. It was by then that I told him that I would be heading to bed in order to give him some time alone. He nodded, understanding, and as I left; sighed and headed back to his own room that he shared with Chani and Taeyang.

I lay there upon my bed, unable to fall asleep, for I was thinking about Youngja-ssi. Is it strange to feel this way? She's like a younger sister to me. After all, I did basically see her grow up before my very eyes since I am a really close friend of her brother's. If I told Minjun that I am indeed falling for his younger sister, he'd probably strangle me to death. Or, maybe I'm just over exaggerating things. Exhaling, I stared up at the ceiling above me. Even though I was given her number by her personally, I never thought it necessary to actually call her or send her a message. But, maybe I should now (?) I don't know, maybe it would make her uncomfortable? I like her, I love her. However, our age difference. Even though we're basically legal enough to date, wouldn't it be weird for us?

I know that Chani likes her as well, so what exactly am I supposed to do?

Chani's P.O.V

Chani is in his room that he shares with Taeyang and Hwiyoung. He stares up at the ceiling, thinking about both Youngja and Jihye; being unable to sleep because of them.

What am I supposed to do? I thought to myself, unable to fall asleep due to the fact that I had been thinking too much about both Youngja-ssi and Jihye Noona. Jihye just confessed to me. She even kissed me. The thing is, why did that kiss make me feel different inside? I know for a fact that I like Yougja-ssi, but why did that sudden kiss make my heart flutter? Is this strange? Is such a feeling normal? I just don't know. Sighing, I stared at the digital clock on my bedside table. The clock ticked away to 12:00 AM, and I just lay there, thinking to myself about the current situation.

"Yah!" Taeyang yelled within a whisper. "Kang Chanhee, why are you still awake?"

Startled, for I did not know that he was watching me; I turned to face him. "Hyung?"

"Now, don't ask me the reason to why I'm awake. As the maknae, I do care if you get enough sleep. After all, Youngbin hyung would be pretty angry if you start falling asleep in the middle of practice. Tell me, what's up?"

"Remember, when I told you guys that I think that I like Youngja-ssi?" I stated back in response.

"Yes, and so?"

"Well, what if I don't know if I still like her now?"

"Huh? So, you're saying that you don't like her anymore?" Taeyang hyung raised a brow, walking toward me and sitting beside me on my bed. "When did you notice that?"

"No, I'm not saying that I don't like her anymore. I'm-I'm just confused."

"Confused?"

"Yeah, it's as if I'm probably falling in love with two people at the same time. Either that, or something's just making me feel totally different,"

"I see. Well, I think it's pretty normal. After all, without a love triangle, what excitement would a romance story have?" Taeyang hyung smirked and off to bed he went again.

And there I was, left alone to think to myself once again.

Do I really like Youngja-ssi or am I slowly, slowly falling for Jihye Noona?

I don't know, but something's making me feel different and somehow this feeling involves my heart, my emotions, and my mind.

What am I supposed to do?
