letter #20 + scene

jungwoo,

i just couldn't believe what you did today. it was so out of the blue, i was caught off guard. and yukhei did something out of the blue, too.

yukhei had his arm above my shoulder and coolly shoved his other hand in his trousers' pocket. i wanted to talk to him about you, asking me to be your date. when in fact, i've already agreed to him.

" yukhei--

" it's fine, seullie. it's not your fault anyways. i knew jungwoo hyung wanted you as his prom date. i just. . liked you and i wanted to share that special night with you. especially that it was your birthday. " i stopped in my tracks as i digested his words properly. l-liked me?

i faced him with curiousity and awkwardness etched in my face. he just gave me forced smile.

" y-you like me? " i bit my lower lip. he just shrugged and shoved both of his hands in his pockets.

" i like you, choi seulyoon. but i shouldn't, because i would hurt someone. he liked you first--

" xuxi! " i turned to face you, running towards us, a bouquet of sumflowers in your hands. which i supposed is for joohyun sunbae. but i want yukhei to finish his words. who liked me first?

" just say 'yes', okay? " was the last thing yukhei can ever say before you can finally approach us.

" oh hyung, just in time. i almost slipped! " yukhei laughed. i smiled, still biting my lower lip because i actually missed that kind of laugh.

you tapped yukhei's shoulder and then he left. but even before he can, he mouthed;

"say yes"

and so, i nodded and smiled him goodbye. i faced you, only to see you kneeling in one knee and handing me the bouquet. there were a few students in the hallway and all of them gasped as you kneeled.

" seulyoon, i will properly ask you this time. " my heart was beating so loudly, i couldn't even manage to breathe properly. i clutched my chest and heaved a sigh. i batted my eyes and focused on you and the flowers. the flowers. . . it was for me?

" choi seulyoon, will you be my prom date? " i gasped a bit as you asked. oh my freaking gosh! the people in the hallway started to shout and scream, to support you.

i think i couldn't say no, so . . .

" yes. "

you were so happy. you jumped in the air and hugged me. i didn't know why you acted like that, but i have decided.

i'll just cherish the moment before it's gone.

seulyoon.
