Unrequited Love of 1870's Diary {SHINee Jonghyun}

CHAPTER 2

Carla secretly pulls her ahbuji's drink. She wants to taste it.

"Carla!" Carla immediately let go of it.

She thought her mother won't notice about it since she is busy talking with Mi-Cha's parents. "Ne eomonie?"

"I saw you."

She turns her head to the other direction while she pouts. She returns to looking her mother and smiles cutely. "I want to know what's the taste of it eomonie."

"No."

Mi-Cha's father, her Uncle Sewoon, ruffles her hair. "Aigoo, such a curious lady."

"Ha! She's a pain in the head brother." Her mother said. "So stubborn."

"Aniyo." She pouts. "Right abhuji?"

"Hahaha, kurae, kurae." Her father pinches her cheek.

"Aigoo... Sister, help me with my daughter." Her mother looks at Mi-Cha's mother, her Aunt Ji-Won.

"Let's asks Mi-Cha's help dear." Mi-Cha's mother pats her mother's hand lightly.

She looks on the ground while pouting. Aigoo, why are they forcing me to wear girl clothes?

She scratches her head while standing. "Eomonie, abhuji, imo and samcheon, I'll just go out and look for Mi-Cha."

"Kurae. Just make sure to be back before 9 o'clock comes." Her mother reminds her. "You are not familiar with the place still and it's already night."

She salutes to her mother. "Copy eomonie!" She runs away when she sees her mother attempting to throw her slippers to her.

Carla is playing on the flatted can while walking on the street back and forth. She is waiting for Mi-Cha. She tucks her earphone and sings with the song played on her phone.

"Bounce with me bounce with me! Bounce with me bounce!" She keeps on repeating the lyrics while walking back and forth with her head down.

She stops from walking when she notices a pair of shoes in front of her. She smiles widely. "Mi-Sssss—"

"Hi." Jonghyun smiles warmly at her.

She bows to him as she greets him back shyly. "Annyeong Jonghyun-ssi. Is Mi-Cha with you?"

"Aniyo. She asks me to wait here. She's worried that you might get bored or lost in this place."

She holds her neck. "Aishh, I'm fine." Carla looks at the sky while trying to move her eyes to the left and right. She feels awkward to Jonghyun which is very unusual for her to feel towards an opposite sex. In fact, she is closer to boys than girls.

Jonghyun clears a throat and then tucks his hands on his pockets. "Urhmm, why are you wearing a cap at this hour?"

"Ah? Eh... I don't like my hair."

"Huh? That's weird? Why?" Jonghyun asks with amusement in his eyes.

She smiles sheepishly. "I know it's kinda weird, but my hair... I don't like long hairs, but my eomonie..." She puffs an air as she remembers her mother. "She said she will rather see me as bald than having a short hair."

Jonghyun can't help, but laugh at it. "I wonder why you don't like long hairs Carla-ssi. It's very unusual for girls, unlike you're a—I mean, if you know what I mean."

"Aniyo! Of course, I'm a girl. I just don't like too much girly stuffs." She smirks. "Having a long hair bothers me a lot especially when I'm playing basketball or trying to paint or repair stuffs." She said casually.
