Enduring (EXO)

여덟

Sehun took a seat on the grass ground in the garden.

" All of this will end after next two months."

Her words echoed in his ear and the way she talked about it so easily made his heart ache.

Well, he couldn't blame her though. He was the one who was never being serious with the relationships and girls. Though he meant all his words to Jinri, she might think he was just saying easily cause he is a playboy.

He said it didn't matter if she likes him back or not. But it was still hurt for him to hear her say those. He wants to think it didn't matter, but it actually matters.

Sehun had decided to make her fall in love with him and he wouldn't change his decision.

" What are you doing, Sehunnie?", he looked up as the voice approached him.

" Heejung..", he smiled at the elder who took a seat next to him. " I am just getting fresh air.".

The elder smiled, " Did you fight with Jinri?", she asked making Sehun shock a little.

" No. No.", he immediately denied. How could he fight with her favorite Jinri. He bet Heejung would beat him up if he messed with Jinri.

But the woman still smiled, " Please endure Jinri.. She might be cold in appearance. And her coldness might hurt you soon or later. But she gets a warm heart inside.. ".

Her words quite startled Sehun, since they were most mature words for Heejung to say. The woman mostly acts like an innocent child whenever she is with Jinri. But now, she was talking to him as if she were Jinri's mother.

" When I first met her, she was lifeless. It seems like she doesn't know how to smile.. But lately, I can see her smile and being happy. And I believe the reason behind her smile is you..", she said gently holding his hand.

He returned the smile, " I have been always enduring her. And I will always do that.", he said.

Because Sehun believes his efforts can make Jinri look back to him one day.

" What are you two doing?", they both looked up to Jinri who was walking towards them. Jinri then sat by Heejung's side.

" Nothing, Jinri. We are just talking.", she said to the younger girl.

" What it is? Heejung, do you like Sehun more now?", Jinri asked almost like joking. And Sehun smiled.

" Of course not. Jinri is the best for me.", Heejung replied pinching her cheeks.

" Heejung..", Jinri groaned while rubbing her reddened cheeks.

Heejung suddenly stood up saying, " I have to go to eat now. Enjoy your time alone.". She left them in the garden after saying goodbye to them.

The atmosphere between Jinri and Sehun suddenly became quite after the elder left.

" Why did you left me alone with those books?", Jinri asked almost annoyed.

Sehun turned to stare at the girl. She doesn't really know that he was upset with her words? Or just pretending not to know?

But he didn't talk back. Instead, he looked towards the west again. Jinri felt a sudden worry when Sehun ignored her like that.

' Did I do something wrong?'

Of course, she did. But the clueless Jinri remains clueless .

While she was busy thinking back what she did wrong, she felt a weight on her thighs. When she saw Sehun laying down there, she was almost freaked out.
