Fated To Love You

19th string - True Feelings

RIN’s POV

It’s about 1AM when we were able to go out of the arena.

“Wah, I’m so tired and sleepy.” HaNa said and the yawned.

“It’s so late… can we still catch a bus home?” Aiden asked HaNa.

“Oh my! It’s past their time, no more bus for us.” My poor friend, HaNa cried.

And then suddenly I thought of an idea.

“How about you just both stay at my place? Let’s just ride a cab, anyway, it’s just 30 minutes from here.” I told them and then suddenly a gleamer of hope was in their eyes.

“REALLY?!” HaNa asked and then held my hands between hers.

“Hey don’t get so much excited you brat… Is it really okay? I mean… we must be a bother, especially that you’re leaving alone and—“

“It’s okay. I have 3 guest rooms in the second floor and no one’s been using it since I moved so you won’t be a bother or anything.” I told them and then smiled.

“Assa!!!! So it’s a deal! Let’s find a cab Aiden!” HaNa said and then dragged Aiden not quite so far to find a cab.

I was waiting for them to find a cab while looking after some of their things when I heard familiar voices.

“You sure you don’t want to come to the dorms?”

I looked at their direction and saw SHIVA’s van coming out of the parking lot and then there’s Marcus going down off it.

“I’m going home to our house tonight. My mom asked me too.”

“I see. But please take care. It’s too late now.” Andrew oppa told him as he patted his shoulder and the van drove away.

I was still looking at him when he caught me staring. I looked away and then turned away from his direction for a bit. But I heard his footsteps coming.

Why can’t I avoid him?

“Hey.” He said as he held my shoulder.

I turned around trying not to feel shy.

“Hey.” I said too.

“Why are you still here? It’s so late now.” He asked.

“We’re going home.” I told him and then pointed at HaNa and Aiden.

“All of you going together?” He asked again.

“Yes… I actually invited them to sleep over at my place since there’s no bus going home already.” I explained to him.

“At your place? With a guy?!”

“Why? Is there something wrong with that?” I asked him. I knew where he is trying to get his point.

Then suddenly HaNa and Aiden called me.

“Rin, we got a cab!” Aiden said as he smiles.

I gestured an okay sign to them and then I faced Marcus.

“So, just see you around. We’ll be going—“ And he just suddenly grabbed my wrist and then dragged me to where my friends are.

HaNa and Aiden threw bewildered expressions at us and when we finally stopped he let goes of my hand.

“I’m sleeping over too.” He said, and then he opened the cab’s door and went in even before us.

The three of us sighed.
