LOVE SICK

Chapter 8

Yonghwa POV

“I think I’m already falling for him. I don’t know what to do” shinhye said. It felt like

someone is crushing my heart to bits. Once again, the girl I like liked someone else. Only this

time, she doesn’t know I like her. that I really really like her. what can I say to her? yonghwa,

she is your friend. Answer like a friend will answer his friend. “what or, okay let’s put it on a

scale basis. From 1-10, 1 the lowest and 10 the highest, rate your feelings for him” babo

yonghwa. She looked away, she stared at the river like she was thinking. I’m hoping for a

miracle right now, please don’t let it be a 10. “it’s a 7…” she looked at me. “and a half” she

continued. This time I look away. I don’t her to see the sadness in my eyes. “love is not just

about happiness, love has it’s fair share of happiness and sadness. If you’re okay with that.

Why don’t you give it a try?” I said.

“you what?” jonghyun, minhwan and minhyuk shouted. Yonghwa told them what shinhye

told him. They are all in his room at his grandma’s house. He called up his cousins and the

blue boys over. “ssshhh! Haelmoni is already sleeping!” juniel shushed them. “what happened

to the over confident yong?” jonghyun asked. He can’t believe his hyung do such a thing. “you

guys are such bulls you know that? Oppa you did the right thing.” Juniel said with an

assuring face. “hey, it’s your cousin that’s hurting here.” Minhyuk protested. “tsk tsk tsk. Boys

and their ego. Listen okay! You really need girl’s education 101! Okay, oppa is her friend now

right? That guy is her best friend. How can you be so sure that it is love that she’s feeling. For

all we know it’s just a habit. She’s so used to him being around so she’s settling for the

obvious, for the accustomed. She knows him to well that when he confessed she’s battling if

she accept him she will never get hurt because she knows him from childhood.” Juniel

narrates earning a thunderous clap from jungshin. “she’s right you know. Hyung, don’t give

up yet. You’ll never know, the world is round, he maybe on the top now but, it will eventually

turn. Try again, Smile again hyung” Jungshin said.

Shinhye stayed in her room after she got home. She’s so worked up now that someone who’s

not been with jae and her gave her an advise. “love has it’s fair share of happiness and

sadness. If you’re okay with that, why don’t you give it a try?” yonghwa’s advice kept on

repeating on her head. “otoke?” “shinhye-ah, dinner’s ready.” yoochun called her. “ah deh

oppa!” she answered. He is jae joong, shinhye, he’s been so good to you all those years. She
