Be Honest | Park Jinyoung

chapter fifteen

After morning classes, you and Jinyoung decided to go out for lunch. You two headed to a cafe for a light lunch because you planned to eat dinner together with Ji-yeon. Jinyoung ordered you both an iced coffee. You sat there for a little while just talking and deciding where to eat lunch.

"Do you just want to get pizza?" You asked.

"That sounds fine. Let's go! I'll pay." Jinyoung said cleaning up your table.

"I'll pay for my half." You said putting on your jacket.

"No you won't. I'm getting a whole pizza. Subin texted and said she went out with Soo-ah. So we can head to her apartment and order delivery."

"Okay. Fine but I'll give the tip. At least let me pay you back somehow."

"No. Keep your money. I can handle the expenses. My parents' business is growing a lot so don't worry."

You just nodded your head. You two walked all the way to the bus stop.

"We can just take my car. So we don't have to wait." He walked you to his car and opened the door for you.

"Why did you go to school on the bus when you have a car right here?" You asked confused.

"Because. Ji-yeon doesn't want anyone to see that she only wants me for my money and looks. So with that we took the bus."

"I see."

-time skip-

You two finally arrived at Subin's apartment. You sat down and opened your phone. You called and ordered the pizza. As you were finished, you called to Jinyoung the price. He took out his money and put it on the counter.

You went into your room to check on your necklace. It was displayed nicely. All of a sudden, your phone rung. It was a text from an unknown number.

"You can't hide. I will always know where you are. I'm your father. Why leave like that?"

Jinyoung was about to pick it up but you immediately got it out of his hands. The doorbell rang and Jinyoung payed for the pizza. You tried to contribute some money but Jinyoung kept rejecting it. He took the pizza and placed it on the coffee table. He grabbed you plates, napkins, and drinks.

You always had the best times with Jinyoung. You never wanted it to end. Jinyoung always made conversation worth listening for. He always made you feel happy and warm inside.

"Promise me something?" He said holding out his pinky. You nodded and wrapped your pinky around his.

"Go right ahead."

"Promise me- That we always stay right by each other's side. We will be together at each other's worst. That we don't just need each other for support but for happiness." You touched thumbs.

"I promise you."

"Be honest. Don't lie."

"I'm not. I promise you that it will be like that."
