Chapter 16: Talking 말하고있어

Chapter 16: Talking 말하고있어

Min Chi


  "Ya, where's the flashlight?" Jae Hee asked the girl beside her. I sighed, I was at the back with my arms folded. They were in front of me, as we all walk towards the boys' room. Filling the creepy hallways that we have to pass, so, we can go to the boys' room. My lips turned into a 'slash' line, as I look at my phone, that I had been holding the entire time. Keeping my annoyance in there, 'cause I was too scared to continue my sleep, if they're all here.


  Curse them. 


  Nope, nothing. No text messages. I sighed, once again, as I place it to my pajama pocket. I look around, not caring if I have a bunch of fan girls leading the way. I hope I won't be lost, since I don't know the way. Besides, there's a bunch of fangirls leading the way, Kim Chi. No need to be-- Where are they?


  I look around me. No one. Wait, where are they? No, I don't want to be here. I look outside, and from a distant, I felt something in those bushes. What if it was a werewolf? Or a Vampire? Worse, a serial killer? No, no, no. I've gotta find them, otherwise, I'm dead. I turn around, as I felt a hand on my mouth and the other on my shoulder.


  Is this the serial killer? Well, that was fast. Too fast, for me to even react. How did he do that anyway? Well, I should be the one blaming myself 'cause I didn't run that fast, supposedly. So, that's why he caught me. I always knew, taunting Jae Hee and her gang is a bad idea. Now, here I am, alone with a serial killer who was still covering my mouth to prevent me from escaping some words, that I'm sure, will now be heard from afar. 


  Kim Chi, you babo!


  "Don't scream, I'm not a person who you're probably thinking right now." A familiar and soft yet manly voice assured me, as he removed his hands on my mouth, turning me around to face him.


It was Byun


It was Baekhyun


The-- yeah, you get it.


Recognizing the voice and the person in front of me, sends a pang of guilt running inside my body. Why did I said bad things to him? I should really stop cursing inside. I should've known what was coming. I didn't even really need to let my eyes downward to prevent me from embarrassing myself with my two months best friend, to know what was the unsophisticated sound that I heard a while ago. Now, my guilt is killing me. 


  Gathering enough courage to look at the scariest (for now) boy who is silently quivering a naughty yet playful smile in anticipation as he look at me. It took a minute or two to realize what was going on. His other hand was placed on my waist, making me, slightly, awkward. He was smirking down at me as I look at him straight in the eyes.


  It was undeniably beautiful. Those black orbs, shining and reflecting the moonlight as I imagined that he was a werewolf who's about to eat me. There was a lot types of werewolves and, if being a control freak who researches about werewolves and vampires will be the only way to describe me, then I won't hesitate, but agree, instead. 


  He was a gosh damn, alpha in my imagination. And if this would become a reality, I'm pretty sure, I would be dead by now. Not because of the way he look at me, or his right hand was practically saving me from falling. Because of the million heartbeats, I'm pretty sure is unhealthy in my situation. But there's another way to get out of this, hypnotize him, or vise versa.


  And then it hit me...


  Literally, hit me...


  We were hit by small rocks, that I'm pretty sure is big enough to call a pebble. Hey, I sometimes, get my facts straight, okay? We were force to separate (not that it was an important thing) on our little staring contest a while ago by an old native man. He was around the old woman's age, that we met in the market, a while ago.


  "Sneaky little teenagers..." he said while walking away, leaving us starstruck. The old man, made me remember my grandfather. Yeah, he wasn't the best grandfather, I've ever met, but he always buy the things I want. Spoiled or not, but that was me when I was a little kid. 


  The only word that I can describe right now is: Serendipity. Pure Serendipity.


~○~○~○~○~


  "So, why did we come here?" I asked, entertaining myself with the great view of the cities, waiting for Baekhyun's answer to leave his lips. Maybe, it's a bad idea to even ask that question. After all, we were very awkward since that incident happened. With summer just around the corner, I don't even know if Baekhyun and I will hang out despite the awkwardness that's suffocating me right now. And I know, he was feeling it too.


  "About the audition.." he started.


  That much had been evident, of course, the moment my eyes look at his with an observing look, noticing that he'll say something to me. The audition was, indeed, a lucky guess though, I must admit. You know how observant I can be at some times. We didn't need that much time to know ourselves to know exactly who we are. Not to mention our impressive silent conversations using only our eyes to communicate. 


  I gathered all my attention to him, which made him, unbelievably nervous. We were in that special treatment where we let ourselves silent for a minute. He was so nervous and uncomfortable. He was in deep thought. And consequently, so was I.


  "I've made up my mind. But I don't know if you'll understand me about my decision." he said skeptically, while looking away. I don't want him to feel that I don't trust his decisions, even if, I'm so hyped about knowing it. Nevertheless, I'm sure I can understand what he decided about himself. I sighed and tapped his shoulder, making sure, he was looking at me. Thank goodness, he gets the signal.


  " It's okay if you don't want me to know about it. At least, not yet." I paused emphasizing the last sentence. He's my best friend, and I'm pretty sure, I have the right to know what's the problem. I look at the stars, and saw a very shiny star, that caught my attention. I can feel his head looking at what I was seeing right now.


  "See that star?" I asked him, not looking at him, but pointing my index finger at the star that caught my eye. He made an 'mmmm' sound, indicating that he's listening to me. "You can talk to her, if you're thinking too much about your audition. And if you're finished with her, you can tell me all the conversations you had." I stated, finally looking at him.


  I saw him forming a smile on his lips. That smile... It was a smile, I've never seen before. Usually, his smile is the reason why I always laugh, but this is indescribable. Though I did my best to restrain myself from anything I'll regret, and thankfully, I have enough strength to control myself. I should thank the morning prayers I've been doing.


  AHHHHH!! OPPA!! HELP US!!" 


  The barking demand was succeeded by two whole group. The first, girls who are the ones that left me in the middle of the hallway all by myself. The same reason why I cursed Baekhyun inside my head. And the same reason why all the teachers will kill us tomorrow with words that I can't even absorb or process. The second, well it's probably the boys who's the same with Baekhyun.


  Still. It was a very silly thing to do...


  Please help us.
