Helpless (Gfriend Eunha Fanfiction)

Twenty Three

EUNHA POVS

"Finally!" I exclaimed happily when I spotted Mingyu is sitting on the driver seat. I'm still far away from the car but I guess my eye sight is good so I'm able to see it even though the windows are quiet tinted.

"What are you happy about?" I tense up at the sound of Jungkook.
"Nothing. See you around." I say and run quickly to the car. I knock the window for Mingyu to unlock the door. I get it and sigh in relief.

"What's wrong?" He asks.
"I should ask that question. Why are you absent at work? Twice in a row." I decided to avoid his question.
"Family business." I try not to look upset because this has happen often, ever since we're younger.
"Okay, have you had breakfast?" I decided to not talk about him being secretive and go for a regular talk. I'm not answering his question anyway so its fair I guess.

"Yeah." He nod. His mind seems like to be far away so I decided to just stay quiet and hum to the music.

Today's schedule is they're going to be practicing again. Its been like this for one week. I guess they're now going to discuss the choreography.

"Why are you guys so quiet?" Another voice pop in. I jump from my seat and turn around. Its Yuju.
"No reason. Why are you here? Just curious." I hastily added.
"Jin hyung told me that I should come along with every schedule. Not that I'm complaining. I have nothing to do at home." She shrugged. I wonder why.
"Why?" I ask anyway.
"He doesn't tell me." She leans into the backseat.
"Oh."

We sat in silence, every single one of us seems to be lost in thoughts. Even though my focus is on my phone, checking if there are any suspicious vehicles following us. I'm not completely focus in it though. My mind is also wondering around.

How am I going to face Jungkook now? I can just pretend its nothing but its really obvious its something. Besides, I know I'll blush like crazy when we'll talk again. I need to control my heart though. Maybe I could talk to Yuju about it.

"Mingyu, I need to see Yuju for a moment, okay?" I ask Mingyu. We're in the lobby of the building. He nods. He's acting weird, not that he'll tell me his problem. Why bother to ask.

I found Yuju waiting for me in the girls restroom. Back in my school days, whenever I want to tell secrets to my friends, we'll always did it in the restroom. At least, some things always stays the same.

"What is it?" She asks. I told her about the incident. She listens to me intently, not interrupting my words in the slightest. Although she does smile slightly, I'm sure its because my face is blushing. How worse could it be if I was standing in front of Jungkook?

"So, you're asking my advice on solving the problem?" She asks.
"Precisely." I nod my head.
"Well, forget your feelings to him. That's the easiest way to solve the problem. Although I don't know if you could do that." She says.
"Yeah, its going to be hard for me. Any other ideas?" I don't bother hiding my feelings for Jungkook. Its obvious Yuju knows it, she knows me really well.

"He probably did that because he's just teasing you. Like a friend? If he does has feelings towards you, he won't act calm like that." She says.
"You're right." I say absentminded.

Maybe I'm overreacting. We're friends after all, at least I think he views us that way. If he does like me, he'll be blushing but he doesn't. Yuju's words are right.

Even if I like him, he wouldn't like me. There are so many more female idols that are more perfect than me. Why would he like me? Someone as perfect as him needs someone that's perfect as well. Not one with flaws.

Still, it stings. The fact that he probably view me as his friend only. Or worse, his bodyguard only.

"Forget it, I'm talking nonsense." Yuju says.
"What?" I ask, focus back on the reality.
"What I said to you is what I'm trying to tell myself." She says.
"What do you mean?" I become worried at her frustrated expression.
"I'm telling myself that Jimin only sees me as a friend. Not more than that." She says.
I widened my eyes. I mean, I had some thoughts that she does like Jimin but I'm not sure if Jimin likes her as well. He's known to be flirtatious with girls. I don't know him well enough though to know how he reacts to a girl he likes.

"Did something happen between both of you?" I ask.
"No. Its just, it needs to stop" She says.
"Yeah." I agree, absentminded.

"Hello?" I stop my tracks when I heard Mingyu is talking on the phone. I hid behind the walls. Eavesdropping isn't great but I have to. I need to know what's going on with Mingyu.
"What? Are you insane? Mom! Fine, let me talk to her." Her? Who's her?
"You ask for this? Can't you refuse if you don't even like it? I have work to do. Really? Thank you. Sorry for canceling it though. Wait, I didn't mean.." He trailed off. I can hear him sighing heavily and walk around.

I put on my expressionless face and approach him.
"What's wrong?" I ask, even though I know his answer.
"Nothing." As expected. Each of us are busy with our electronics again.

"Can I ask you something?" I ask after we're being silence for a while.
"What?" He looks worried. Its not that I'll ask him his 'family matters' when he's not going to answer it.
"My friend did something embarassing to someone and she doesn't know how to face him again." I'm not going to explain the true story to him. He'll make fun of me.
"Apologize to him then." He says, looking relieved.

He doesn't understand. I decided to just tell him the full story with different person.

"It happened to you and Jungkook, right?" Mingyu says. I tense. How did he know?
"Taehyung told me." He says as if he's reading my mind.

MINGYU POVS

"How? Taehyung wasn't with us yesterday." Eunha looks surprised.
*Flashback*
"Hello?" Why is Taehyung calling me at midnight?
"Mingyu? I have something to tell you."
"Tae hyung? Since when you have my number?"
"I have my sources. You won't believe what I saw earlier." He sounds excited.
"What?" I ask, can't help but curious.

"There's something going on between Eunha and Jungkook. I saw it at the gym." He says. Eunha? Jungkook? Gym?
"What do you mean?"
"Ask them for details. That's all I could give you." He hang up.
"Yah!" I say even though I know he can't hear me. What does he means by that? Nevermind. I'll ask Eunha tomorrow.
*Flashback end*

"That's it? That's all you've got to tell me?" She asks.
"Yeah. You want to ask for my advice. But you can't even tell me the truth." I say.
"You're saying that I'm lying?" She asks.
"I'm saying, you can't even tell me that you like Jungkook." He says.

EUNHA POVS

I stay silent. Unable to answer him.

"See? I'm right. I've expressed before that I don't like you with him. You know why?" He asks.
"Why?" Because I truly have no idea.
"Because its impossible for both of you to have a love story." He says.
"Yeah, he's an idol and perfect while I'm not an idol and have flaws." I snap at him.
"That's not what I meant." He says.
"Then what do you mean?" I stand up. Feeling my anger is slowing heating me up.

"I mean, find someone around you, Eunha. Someone that's in you're league.."
"You're saying, I'm not in the same level as him, right? You're saying that our chances to date is thin, right? I completely know and understand it, okay? Its a criminal then to like someone like him?!" I blow up.

"Listen to me, Eunha! That's not what I meant. I don't want you to be hurt so I advice you to find someone that could love you!" He stands up and yelled at me.
"Then who?! Who could love me, huh?!"

"Me!"
