Hyejin slowly opened her eyes on her sleep, sighing while rubbing her eyes lazily. It was early in the morning. As in really early.
Hyejin sat up on her bed. Groaning, she picked up her phone to an unknown number that kept texting her, and to be face by a few missed call from the unknown number not that long ago. Hyejin sighed and reads the text.
'Hyejin?' -3:07
'Hyejin! Are you awake?' -3:015
'Please answer me if you see this!' -3:20
'Hyejin!!' -3:30
'Are you avoiding me? Or are you already asleep?..' -3:40
'Hyejin..' -3:50
'Meet me in the park near your house, please. I'll be waiting..' -3:59
Hyejin sighed as she scrolled to the long text and decided to reply.
'Who are you? And why do you want to see me?'
'You really did change a lot.'
'It's because I don't know you, jerk.'
'Where's the Hyejin that I know?'
"Do I even know you?'
'Hello? What did you do to Hyejin!?'
'This is me, stupid'
'I'm just messing around. It's me, Seungcheol'
'Seungcheol? How did you get my number?!'
'I got it from your parent.'
'What!? How?!'
'I always visit at your parents house after you left.'
'Wow. How lucky, tsk.'
'Yeah, yeah. So..?'
'So what?'
'Are you coming or not.'
'No of course.'
'eh? Why not?'
'Oh my gosh. Because we are already done and it might be awkward.'
'I don't find it awkward and were already over. It's not like you're going to meet me here as your boyfriend.'
'Cocky much?'
'Ugh. You're driving me crazy. Just come here!'
'What if I don't come? And plus they might freak out if they found out I left the house. They'll think that I have been kidnapped or maybe I escaped.'
'haha, I'll take full responsibility. Just come here.'
'Too lazy and too early. Really early.'
'ughhhh. You're driving me insaneee.'
'I was just using those an excuse to not see you but you keep on bugging me. I was deep in my sleep.'
'Just come here.'
'Why!?'
'I just wanna talk to you and I can't sleep.'
'Fineee.'
'Finally! Come here now! Hurry!!'
'Okay! Just wait stupid!'
'Okay stupid! I'll wait here.'
'K'
Hyejin left him a one word reply and got up from bed. Thinking about something to wear and ended up wearing her own pajamas. I mean, they're just gonna talk for a little bit and then part ways.
I'm gonna make this quick. Hyejin tip toed her way downstairs and went outside successfully. She wore her slippers and went to her destination with Seungcheol.
As she entered the quiet place, she saw Seungcheol sitting on the bench and this is where she admired him.
His sitting position making him look cuter, how he clutched the edge of the bench as he's eyes darted on the sky that made his eyes shine with tears falling down. Is he crying? Why?
Hyejin sighed and sat beside him.
"Are you crying?" Hyejin asked softly. Seungcheol flinched and this is where their eyes met.
Hyejin can finally see Seungcheol's face. After that one year, he was still handsome. He's lips that is pink like the cherry blossoms, he's nose that Hyejin would always kiss making him pout, and he's tear stained eyes that twinkled like the stars. Just seeing him cry made Hyejin's heart cry too but why? Hyejin already broke up with him. Why does she feel this way?
I get it now. The reason was, she didn't want to be a burden to Seungcheol and his friends career. She thought it was the only way to stop this and to forget but no. No matter how many times she'll do anything to distract herself Seungcheol would always pop in her mind. His smile, his face, his eyes, he's everything. Let's just say, Hyejin still loves Seungcheol. The same as Seungcheol. They still love each other.
"Oh no.. I'm not.." Seungcheol quickly wiped his tears away while sniffling. Hyejin chuckled.
"It's okay if you cry. It's just the two of us in here." Hyejin said softly making eye contact with Seungcheol.
"I'm not. it's just.. I have a lot of thoughts going in my mind." Seungcheol looked down. Hyejin shook her head and sat comfortably beside Seungcheol.
"Why are you wearing your pajama if you're going to meet me here?" Seungcheol asked looking at Hyejin's clothing, Hyejin only shrugged.
"We're just gonna talk and go back home."
"I was planning on treating you to eat and then we could talk." Seungcheol said glancing at Hyejin.
"You know I can't say no to food. Let's go." Hyejin laughed and held Seungcheol's hand and helped him stand up. Seungcheol blushed as he felt how warm Hyejin's little hands. Oh how he wished to hold it everyday. Hyejin soon realized what she was doing, she blushed and quickly pulled away making Seungcheol feel sad and disappointed.
"Sorry.." Hyejin mumbled looking down and feeling her face heating up.
What is happening to me today!? Hyejin thought and blushed madly.
To avoid the awkward silence and the awkward situation, Seungcheol cleared he's throat and asked," What about your clothes? Aren't you gonna change? You're only wearing your pajama."
Hyejin shrugged and small smile appeared.
"Wearing a pajama to going out is not that bad compared to what I did to you and left you without a reason. Let's just go."
Hyejin grabbed Seungcheol's wrist and went to a nearby restaurant to eat ramen as Seungcheol's treat.
Ramen might not be healthy but it's the only choice. Their only choice.
