My boyfriend is Lee Min-ho

Chapter Thirteen - Confessions

The stupid me actually forgot about the final dinner party after the production was completed. Yoojin had invited me to join them and she promised to text me the venue when it was all confirmed.

Shit. And I thought I would not be seeing him again. That was why I had written that message and told him that I liked him. Jeez, now it would be so awkward to meet up again. For me and for him. Jeez... I should have told him only when I got home back in Singapore. That was the safest option. Why was I so stupid!

Anyway, the outcome of that text.... He never did reply on that day. I figured he must have gone off for shooting. I kept refreshing my phone to check but nothing came it. I went to bed with a headache. When I woke up the next morning, I saw that there was a text from him at four in the morning. Oh dear... I hoped he was going to have enough rest for the next day. He was growing some bad eye bags.

I stared at the screen nervously with my hands gripping tightly on the phone. The text was still unopened. I wondered what he had wrote. Part of me was dying to know what he had replied but the other part of me was worried about what he had wrote. I had no doubt that it would not be something positive. I mean, Lee Min-ho would never possibly liked me back. It was just barely three months. He had better choices of girls. Much prettier and people closer to home. Park Shin-hye was a good example. He was nice to me because he was simply nice to everybody. He was a nice guy.

I tapped on the unopened text. I bit my lip as I wait for it to flash up.

"Of course, we'll always be good friends. Don't think so much. Concentrate on your revision. We'll talk again after everything."

I stared at his message. Well, I was great to have his assurance about our friendship for sure. But what was he assuming that I was thinking? About him? About us? And we would talk again after everything? Was there something he wanted to talk to me? Maybe he wanted to tell me to forget about the romantic notion? Aw.... that would be too cruel for me! And did he also imply that I shouldn't be texting him until then? Oh my god.... that would be so boring for me! He was like my only active Line friend here in Korea. With everybody busy with their revision, hardly anybody talked to me these days!

I let out a sigh of frustration.

My next paper was in two days' time. I reckoned I could do with a break at the moment. I grabbed my bag and put on my fleece jacket. I was heading off to town.

My final week went past in a whiz. I couldn't even register how I survived to my last paper. Anyhow, I survived it. I hoped I would get an average B. The final paper hadn't been easy. It was tougher that I had expected.

When I returned to the room, Cass was all packed up and ready to go. She was flying back to Hong Kong and I promised to send her off. After leaving her final instructions on shipping, saying her final goodbyes to everybody and taking a final look around the dorm, we headed out.

It was a quiet journey to the airport. Guess the both of us were too solemn to talk. We just wanted to sit there and enjoy our last moments together. Sounds cheesy eh?

She was the first to break the silence. "Is everything alright with you?"

"Huh? What's wrong with me?" I raised an eyebrow.

She shrugged, "I don't know. You seem rather down these days."

"I do?" I smiled a little.

"Did something happen...?" I never told her about Min-ho nor the times when he brought me out. "Is it some guy?"

I shrugged. She probably took it as a yes.

She smiled and consoled me with a pat on the arm. "Well... whatever it is, I'm sure it'll work out fine."
