the moment i stepped inside my house, my mother popped out of nowhere scaring the heck out of me.

"shh, your sister's asleep," my mother said putting a finger up to her lips. i placed my fingers at the bridge of my nose close to my eyes. my mother gave a small smirk. "so.. hoseok?"

"mOM."

"shh, don't worry. i won't tell a soul what i saw," she smiled. "are you two finally dating? it's about time."

my cheeks turned pink for some reason. "n-no. we're not... well, i don't know."

"i know what it is. you're confused on how you feel about him," my mother softly said. i sighed as i walked over to the dining room, and sat on a chair with my mother following behind.

"it's like now everytime i meet with him, there's a feeling inside of me where i hope to see him. seeing him smile is something i'm used to seeing everytime i see him. you know he likes me, right?"

my mother laugh softly. "yes. it's quite obvious coming from that boy. hense, the reason why he must have given you that kiss before he left just now," she said.

i ran my fingers through my silky hair as i let out a sigh. "i don't know mother. i mean... does this mean... i like him?" i asked softly.

"i think... that's only for you to know," she replied in a soft manner. a frustrated sigh came from my mouth as i leaned onto the table top. "love is so complicated," i muttered to myself as i ran circles on top of the table with my finger.

"true... it can be complicated, but being in love can be... the most wonderful feeling you can ever experience. the queasy feelings you get in your stomach and skipped heartbeats mean something," my mother softly said.

i looked up to look at her. "just... being able to see him each and everytime," i softly began to say. a smile grew on my mother's face.

"i do like him."
