"then, what's the best for me?"
"me."
"you're joking, right?"
"uh yeah, of course i'm joking." i faked a laugh.
"good, you scared me for a moment."
ouch.
"by the way, i wont be walking home with you today." jinyoung said, thankfully changing the subject.
"what, why? i thought you were staying over tonight? i already bought the face masks and everything."
"i'm sorry, but jihoon hyung wants me to spend the night. the guys are coming too. we can have a home spa some other day."
change of plans. AGAIN.
"oh, okay." i said, and looked down at my shoes.
"okay class, take out the packet we started yesterday. you can work on it with the people around you." the teacher spoke, and went to go help a student who had their hand raised.
"lets work on it together." jinyoung said and scooted my chair closer to his.
"i'm sorry, who are you?" i said, acting like i didn't know him.
"what are you taking about?"
"what? do i know you?"
"bom, please. are you mad? is this why you're acting like this? this is nothing to be mad about."
"stranger danger!"
"stop." jinyoung softly grabbed my wrist.
"i'm not mad. i'm just annoyed. it seems like you never have time for me anymore. it's always 'i'm sorry, reschedule?' 'maybe next time?' or 'some other day'. can't i just hangout with you?"
"don't get me wrong, i want to hangout with you. we see each other every single day. doesn't it get tiring to you?" he asked, not thinking about it twice.
"tiring? wow i see. whatever. and no it doesn't get tiring." i said and turned the other way, facing the wall.
"bom-"
i grabbed jinyoung's face. "if it's so tiring, i'll leave you alone. we wont walk to and from school together, we won't sit near each other in class, and we definitely won't hangout."
"are you serious? i didn't mean it like that."
what he said wasn't offensive. it's just since it came out of his mouth, i got offended. i'd like to think that i'm not too attached to him, but i am.
i ignored him for the rest of the class. it was hard, since every five seconds he tried to get a word out of me.
i got up as soon as i heard the bell rang.
"have fun with jihoon oppa." i said and left the classroom.
why is this boy always saying shit he'll regret later? i honestly don't know how long i can go without physically being without him. the longest ive spent time apart from him was maybe a week, and it was miserable.
the annoying buzzing of my phone interrupted my thoughts.
