Thank You, Stranger. || Namjin ✓

4.

Seokjin and Yunah were standing in front of the café and looked each other in eyes. They gave one another a cute smile and started going to the nearby park.

They sat on a bench and looked at a beautiful sky.
"I can't believe someone can look that attractive.." - Yunah sighed and looked at her sneakers.
Seokjin chose not to say anything. He didn't want Yunah to have any suspicions towards his sexuality.

Several kids were running near them, while their mothers were eating ice cream and laughing together. Clouds split out and sun was shining so bright. This day seemed like paradise, comparing to horror Seokjin's been through two days ago.

Ever since they've met, Jin and Yunah had a very complex relationship. They were always friends, no doubt. In recent years they even became best friends, but there was always some kind of "something" between them.

Whether it was a little flirt or some questionable looks they give each other or longer hugs than usual, that relationship was hard to explain.

"Umm..", Yunah mumbled, "I've been wondering about something, Jin."
"About what?" - Seokjin raised his head and looked at Yunah's eyes. They were sparkling.

"I've never asked you this question, but I feel like asking it now..", Yunah bit her lower lip and looked at the ground, ".. Are you gay?"

Seokjin opened his eyes wide. His hands started sweating again. He felt very anxious.
"Why do you ask?", Jin asked with a dull look on his face, "Do I look like one?"
"No.. I just wondered. It's not a waste to ask." - Yunah sounded lost as she fixed her shoes with her eyes.

"I wanted to ask that especially after watching a dialog between you and that waiter. I felt a flame in my heart. It was a very pleasant view." - Yunah raised her head and put her hand on Seokjin's knee.

Seokjin didn't feel uncomfortable because of her action. He had a very personal relationship with her and it wasn't something he found strange. He put his hand on hers.

"Well.. To be honest, I don't know." - Seokjin was honest.
"I feel like I never knew what I wanted. Btw, what do you mean by "a pleasant view"?" - He tried to sound confused, but he knew very well the chemistry was obvious.

"I saw the way you were looking at him. I felt that you felt the same thing as me. I've never seen you looking at a guy like that before... We both liked him." - Yunah put her fingers between Seokjin's. Seokjin didn't feel anxiety, even though it was a very touchy topic.

"I know.. It was very obvious, but I couldn't hide it. It was just how I felt." - Seokjin felt some kind of guilt. He was mix-feeled about the whole situation.

"I really don't wanna see the guilt in your eyes that I'm seeing now.", Yunah said while tightening her hand that was on Seokjin's, "There's nothing wrong about being who you are."

Seokjin couldn't control his feelings. He felt guilty cuz of who he was. When you're different, you can't simply accept it and live life happily as everyone else. When you don't fit to society's standards, you're simply being cut off by majority.

"I know, Yunah, but in this society it is very difficult to be different. You know what majority thinks about it." - Seokjin sighed.
"Ugh..", Yunah sighed in disappointment, "But you shouldn't stay hush about things like that, not to me. I'm always by your side, no matter what you do or who you are. It's something you couldn't choose and it's totally fine." - She gave him a big smile of support.

"I know, my Yunah.." - Seokjin smiled at her back. It was a big relief. He hugged her tight for several seconds. Two girls that were playing in the park walked next to their bench.

"I hate the PDA so much!" - One girl said to the other as they were passing by. They giggled in a crooked manner.

Seokjin and Yunah separated fast and felt embarrassed.
"I hate small children so much." - Yunah commented back. They both laughed as they stood up. They started going towards intersection. Yunah's apartment was on the right and Seokjin's was on the left.

"Omg!", Yunah shouted, "I just got an idea!"
"What now?" - Seokjin asked tiredly. He was a bit tired of Yunah's ideas. Or maybe scared.

"You've been trying to find a job right?" - She looked at Jin's eyes, putting on a weird smile.
"Um.. yeah?" - Jin seemed confused. He was afraid of what she was about to say.
"Then why wouldn't you start working at that café?", her eyes got bigger as her excitement was rising, " it looks fancy and I believe salary is just as good as the place itself!"

Anxiety hits again. Hands were sweating again. Seokjin really hated that feeling.
"NO! How am I supposed to work there? I mean..", he didn't know what to say, "I'm not even good at serving people!"

"Oh don't lie! You were a waiter two years ago, it can't be that hard. Also, I think not many people visit that place because it's not very transparent."

"Ugh.. no, no, no." - A drop of sweat fell from his forehead.
"Oh come on~!", Yunah sulked while hitting Jin's biceps, "It can't be that hard. You'll get the money, the experience and most importantly, you'll get to hang out with that cutie all day long!"

Seokjin frowned. He didn't know how to skip this conversation.
"Ok, I'll think about it, fine?!" - Seokjin sounded mad.
"Oh, thank you sweety!", Yunah did aegyo putting her fists on her mouth, "I consciously passed you the Apollo and you're here being a stickler!

Seokjin's cheeks turned red. "Of course you passed him, you're taken!"
"I told you he's not my boyfriend.. Even if he was, it's not like we're going to engage or something." - Now Yunah felt awkward, too.

They stood next to the traffic light where they had to separate their ways.
"I expect an affirmative message tonight or tomorrow morning." - Yunah smiled with her eyes.
"I don't promise anything, but I'll think about it." - Seokjin smiled to her and they both started walking towards their apartments.
