My Best Friend || kth

18 - Friendship > Love

My phone kept ringing and I just stared at it.

Taehyung is my best friend and the guy I like and he doesn't even know about my feelings.

I should not feel guilty...

"Hello"

Taehyung: Yah! Why did you take so long to answer?

Mimi: I was in the shower.

Taehyung: Did you get home safe?

Mimi: Looks like I did.

Taehyung: Hey Mimi?

Mimi: Mm?

Taehyung: Did anything happen on the way home?

Mimi: Like wha..what?

Taehyung: Just saying.. You know..

There was an awkward silence..

Mimi: How is your dad?

Taehyung: Ah.. He'll be discharged soon. He is doing really good.

Mimi: I'm glad to hear that.. I was so scared when you called.

Taehyung: I heard you and Titina got penalty points from Mrs. Lee. You two must have gotten close now. Strange...

Mimi: She doesn't seem so bad after all..

Taehyung: Nobody is a bad person once you get to know the real them..

Mimi: Yeah That's why you should make up with Jungkook.

I said sarcastically.

Taehyung: You're crazy. Go to sleep now.. See you at school tomorrow.

Mimi: Mm..Goodnight.

Oh right.

There's school tomorrow.

Why!!!

How will I face Jungkook?? Should I just pretend to be sick? What should I do??

•

The next morning. I really got a fever and runny nose.

Must be because of the rain.

Though it was so uncomfortable I was extremely happy.

Mom called the school for sick leave so I stayed at home the whole day.

Hilda and Taehyung came over after school.

Hilda: You've been ignoring me for so long.

Mimi: Me? No way.

Hilda: I didn't even know Tae's dad has got better.

Mimi: Ah Sorry.

Taehyung: Did you get yourself wet in the rain yesterday. This girl...

Mimi: But i had fun..

Then there was a sudden flashback which made me flinched. Ughhh..

Hilda: It's strange.. Jungkook was absent today too.. I guess you both caught the flu.

I coughed out of embarrassment.

Tae went to the Kitchen to prepare porridge. How thoughtful...

Hilda: Did anything happen yesterday?

Mimi: Hilda.. I don't know what to do..

Hilda: What is it? Tell.me?

Mimi: Tomorrow is Saturday anyway.. Spend the night? I can't tell you while Taehyung is around..
