I put down my phone after saving the picture of Leona to my gallery. As I studied her figure, the chilling words of Jun came back to me..

"Leona is very precious to me and I love her.."

"Does she love you?"
"Yes, but not in the way that you think.."

It tormented me. But no matter what I did to try and understand it or suppress it, I couldn't. So, I did what I had to do..

•Leona•

While at lunch with Mira, my phone lit up with a name I had not seen in a long time..

I've got to change his name.. to what though?
Hobi? No.. too cutesy..
Hoseok? Meh.. to plain.. and painful..
How about..

Ho: Are you busy?

Heart pounding, I discreetly tried to answer him before Mira noticed.

Should I change his name again?

Leona: Why?

Ho: I want us to have lunch together.
       Are you free?

Leona: Right now?

Ho: If you're free, then yeah.

Leona: Hoseok, I don't have time for this.

Ho: Please?
        I just really want to see you again..

I sighed.

"What cha doing?" Mira piped up, causing me to get alarmed.
"Oh, uh nothing. Just.. Texting, you know."
"Ooooh. Is it Jun?" She grinned as she got closer to me, attempting to peer over at the name.
"No." I locked my phone.
"Awww. Is it your sweetheart? Why so sensitive?"
"Because you're not my-." I stopped myself.

What the hell are you doing?

"You're not my security guard and I would like to keep my personal life private." She pouted.

I'm so glad that went well.

"Well, anyway. Here you go." She said, handing me my drink. "We have a few things to get through today. Just small stuff, you know? Not the big stuff."
"Okay."

We walked into many many stores, but it was when we were in Patty Kitana's Craft Store that we ran into someone..

"Okay, I'll give you the list of things I'm looking for and bring whatever you have to me that even seems like it'll be similar to what I want. Despite the color or etcetera. I'll meet up with you in a few. Okay?"
"Got it."

"I'm so glad you're my maid of honor." She smiled. I couldn't help but deliver to her a sad smile, though. I was hurting.

Why would Hoseok do this to me?

No no. Stop being stupid.
You did this to yourself.

If I hadn't of.. ugh, gosh.
Focus!

I shook my head, regaining my focus on the different fabrics and spotted something I truly loved. It was the blue Willow pattern that I truly adored. Looking around, I swiped it and put it in the front basket for myself.

I'm sure she won't mind if.. If I just.. Ugh..

Biting my lip in frustration, I kept going. Going on and on. Checking off thing after thing after thing. Then, finally, I came to another item.

This is where Mira's section is..
Maybe I should go swipe it up just in case..

Upon my arrival, though, I heard a familiar voice conversing with a well known one.

"Sehun.. Come on, you know the risk! She just doesn't know.." she said as she traced her fingertips along his jacket, looking down.
"Well, this.. doesn't have to know. ..want you home."

Home?

"Sehun.." She trailed off as he leaned in to, what looked like, kiss her. A hand on my mouth, I began to back up..

Into a wall of beads..

The beads went splashing everywhere out of one container and I was the center of attention. I had never felt so embarrassed in my life. Mira instantly appeared in front of me with that guy she was with and I did not know how to react.

"I-. I-I'm so sorry. I just-.." I bit my lip and covered my face in panic.
"Leona, it's okay. Stop freaking out." Mira chanted.
"I just was so shocked when he-."

Dammit.

"When who what?" I looked up at both of them.
"N-nothing."
"Did you see anything that startled you?"
"No.. Nevermind."
"Don't say Nevermind, Leona. Is it him?" She pointed at the guy. "Is it Sehun?" I covered my mouth and looked down in embarrassment.

Suddenly, the guy came up to me and started talking in a whisper. "Is it because you saw me kiss her?" I didn't know how to answer that question, but he did. "Relax, Leona. Mira is a very near and dear person to me. You don't have to worry about what you've seen."
"What have you told her?" Mira suddenly went off on him.
"That I kissed you."
"What?!"
"She saw it. Might as well tell the truth." He shrugged. Mira sighed.
"Leona, I am so sorry. You see, Sehun here is my best friend and if you think that I'm cheating on Hoseok, don't worry because he knows about it."
"Knows about what?" I questioned.
"Sehun's my best friend and all, but..

Sehun's.. gay.."

She looked over at Sehun. "You see, he doesn't like it when I do this." She pinched his cheek. "Or this." She poked him. "Or-."
"Mira, I think she gets it. Now, cut it out." Mira couldn't stop smiling.
"Sehun's been my friend for years. We've always been like this."

Well, I guess if he's not explicitly gay, then..

I'm still confused..
