EPISODE 27
Early in the morning, I find Woohyun oppa standing outside the house. I smile at him and he smiles back.
"What are you doing here---" he just smiled at me and pulled me to his car "w-wait! I still have classes to attend to!" I continued grumbling but this made me shut up "OUR DATE OR YOUR CLASSES?"
I tried to resist the overflowing excitement I'm feeling right now but I just can't "Where are we going?" I continued on asking him while he's driving. He just pinched me on the cheek. I didn't ask him after that, afraid of blushing like a tomato.
I looked out the window... I smiled wondering where will we be heading to on our first REAL date.
First...we toured around Myeongdong Market and bought caps, wigs, glasses and masks for disguise. In one of the stores, the sales lady recognized Woohyun oppa. She was calling out his name that attracted the people's attention. Out of fear, we ran off to the car. Even if it creep us out...we still laughed over our silliness.
I wore the crinkled wig on him and laughed over his odd appearance. I mocked him after "you don't even look like an idol with that on! hahahaha!"
"argh~ I don't want to wear that!" he threw the wig behind and fixed his hair "it's wrecking my idol image"
"we can't go out if you don't wear that" I protested. If he don't disguise himself, we couldn't date in public. Now that he's telling me that he doesn't want to wear that is much like he doensn't want to date me and it's pissing me off "let's just go home"
"Okay. Okay. Don't be mad. I'll do whatever you want me to" I smiled at him when he got the wig back "I'm still handsome with this on right?" I nodded with a thumbs up
"I'm doing this for the first time in life" he whispered "because I don't want to piss you off"
People kept on looking at us but we didn't mind. I didn't think people will recognize Woohyun oppa with his wig, cap and glasses on. As we're walking, I saw a couple shirt and shoes on display in a store.
"Let's wear those on!" suddenly... Woohyun oppa pulled me to the store. Looking at our reflections in the mirror with couple shirts on and matching rubber shoes was so overwhelming.
After shopping few crazy little things...we went couple biking at the Han River Park...I just thought that this is the most wonderful spring I ever experience - embracing Woohyun oppa's back while cherry blossoms are showering down on us. Even if I can't shout out loud that I'm dating Woohyun oppa, it feels just alright.
It's late night when we got to Namsan. I've never been in Seoul Tower but I know that this is a romantic place for couples. I giggle thinking that we're here as couples. It doesn't seem real though as we're walking foot apart. It's really awkward for us to see other couples holding hands. I never noticed that we're only inches apart until our hands bumped to each other. Our hands keep bumping as we're walking. When we were running a while ago, we were holding hands. I wonder if he'll hold me again.
I freeze when he finally holds it "It keeps on bumping and it's irritating me" I looked at him in confusement but he did not look back. I snap thinking that he's just making a reason so he could hold me.
We left our lovelocks there with our names on it. I was about to drop the key on the box when he stopped me "let's keep it instead"
"The keys were supposed to be dropped on that mailbox-like stuff. Couples drop it there so no one could unlock it. If we keep these keys on us, it's like we're thinking of unlocking it again. The locks are symbols of bond that could never be unlocked" I mumbled.
Instead of answering me, he snatched the key I'm holding and dropped both keys on his pocket "It depends on. I want to keep it as a remembrance." I don't want to suspect him on unlocking it and so I just agreed with him.
After our dinner...we went sightseeing at the top of Seoul Tower "Oppa. I realized that you're really amazing" he's looking at me while I'm still looking at the sparkling lights of buildings in Seoul "because there's a lot of people who love you"
I got sad over the thought that Woohyun oppa differs a lot from me. He has the members...the fans and of course, a family. I know I have friends and I have Infinite too...but it is all that I have. I don't have a family.
"have you ever wondered how many people love you in this world? I think it's countless. If I point a building from here, I know for sure that there's at least one living there who loves you"
Suddenly...he back hugs me "it's not HOW MANY" he emphasized "but HOW MUCH" he hold me even tighter "if you point that building...for sure one of those people living there knows me...but you couldn't really say if that person loves me. If people do love me...perhaps it's because I'm an idol...but I keep on wondering if people could still love me not as Infinite's Woohyun but as Nam Woo Hyun"
I could sense in his words hesitations and doubts. "Now. I believe I'm with the real Nam Woo Hyun because I'm not dating the idol named Woohyun but the person named Woohyun... You're likable oppa no matter who you were in the past, who you are now and who you will become in the future"
He turned me to face him... "Ji Ae ah~ you're amazing too because I---" he shrugged "even if you don't have a lot of people who love you...you have me..." he's about to kiss me but curse his eyeglasses that got in the way =___=
We just continued on sightseeing while he's embracing me behind. I was expecting a confession from him, but still he didn't. He just kept on giving me warm embraces instead of giving me a formal confession.
"Jalja (sleep well)" he gave me a sweet smile and unlocked the seatbelt for me. I was about to get off the car but hesitated after... "Oppa..." he looked at me with a confused expressioon. I breathe out all the hesitations and steal a kiss on his cheek "kumawoyo (thank you)" making him flushed and frozen.
