Johnyong "What Is This Feeling?"

How did we end up here?

Johnny

It's lunch Taeyong is approaching me and it makes me feel excited. I always anticipate what will happen. I try thinking about the most interesting conversations I can make. Here goes a chance "Taeyong ummm.....how was class?", That was great! "It was okay, and you?...umm, How are things going with your parents?" Why is he asking about my life? Does he really care about me? "They...they are struggling to pay my college books and I need to get a job. Actually today later in the afternoon, I'm going to ask about the hiring position in the japanese restaurant near the school." Today I am pretty confident about the job interview, I hope to get the position before anyone else. "Ah, really! I hope to see you there then because I'll pass by just to see you." Taeyong smiled at me and stared into me with those dark brown eyes.  He makes me smile too, "Taeyong tell me more about yourself, who were your friends in the past and are you still connected with them in some sort of way?" The truth us that I want to get closer to Taeyong, and to know more about him. "Johnny, I........I had very bad friends.....and they hurt me....real-" I did not think before speaking and my words came out as a yell, "What did they do to you?! How did they hurt you?" I practically yelled the first question, but I decided to calm down when I asked the second one. I still wonder what happened to him with his friends. "They..." he hesitated to answer and he thought a lot about what to tell me. I don't want to pressure him so I'm going to let it slide. "Don't worry Taeyong. I know that you prefer to forget about it. Let's talk about something else!" I try cheering up the aura and Taeyong's eyes widen due to my sudden change in mood. But he smiles brightly, oh, my heart skips a beat and my face blushes unexpectedly. Taeyong's smile widens even more, if that is possible. He grabs my hands and starts hitting the palms of my hands trying to play a game. I follow the flow he initially starts and we play the game until our hands hurt. We stay seated on the bench quietly observing the grass and the flowers it barely had. Fall was coming and the leaves in trees became orange passing the days. Taeyong leaned onto my shoulder and spoke with a calm and bright tone, "I want to stay with you like this forever, I trust you more than who I ever trusted in my life. I need you."

Did I just speak my mind aloud, oh no! Johnny shifts a little after I made my unexpected confessions to him, his smile appears again and it makes me feel comfortable like it always does. He takes hold of my hand and squeezes it making me feel safe. This is how I want to feel, safe, comfortable, and happy. Happiness is what I feel with Johnny. I know that I barely met him days ago but this feeling came naturally as if it had been destined to happen. Lunch time is over already and we have to say goodbye. This time I'm not going to forget. I need to ask Johnny for his phone number. "Johnny!", I force my voice to not crack since I'm not used to speak loudly. Johnny turns around to face me again, "May you give me your phone number?", he smiles and takes out a piece of paper and starts writing on it with a pen. "Here, goodbye Taeyong." Johnny leaves waving at me jogging to his next class which is farther away from mines and the day continues.

Time skip after school

I want to arrive early to my job interview. I need to give a good first impression in order to receive the position. I walk inside the restaurant exactly one minute before the actual meeting but I saw the owner waiting and observing me carefully. The owner indicates me to go inside his hidden office and closes the door behind me. He orders me to sit down on the chair in front of his desk as he made his way to his own. I felt a ping of nervousness and a desperate need of water because my throat went dry. "Your name is Johnny right?...." I waited for more but he stared back at me so I responded with enthusiasm and excitement,"Right." He scanned the brief summary I made about myself. "This would be your first job. Why do you want to work here?" I did not want to waste time and my response came out easily just like I planned it to be. "I really need the job to help my parents in need, we are currently stuck in an economic crisis and I need to help them." I decided to let that be the explanation since he will only be my boss and I explained fair enough. The young man glared at me and muttered something in a language I could not understand, he smiled. I waited for a question a command or something. "My name is Yuta Nakamoto, it was a pleasure meeting someone like you. I will take you into consideration and most probably because of your background I will make you take the position of cashier or my sales manager. Please be patient since I am still thinking about the changes I have to make. You may now leave." He is a very well mannered and organized guy, you can tell because of his very polite and critical thinking. Yuta, my possible boss seems to be very nice. I feel like I really did make him feel comfortable about my education, and he deeply thought about offering me really good positions. If I receive a position in the restaurant I will work hard, I don't want to disappoint a guy who seems to trust me. I will work harder from now on.
