18 AUGUST 2018

i sat there playing with
my food as minho and
jisung continued staring
at me .

" are you sure you're okay ? "
minho asked for the nth time .

" where are hyunjin and the
others going ? " jisung questioned .

i finally put my head up to
see the boys playing around
with hyunjin .

" did you guys fight ? " jisung
asked with a stern voice .

" minho i'm fine , and yes ... we
did fight ... i feel like he is ashamed
about our relationship since he still
doesn't want to make it public
until now " i replied avoiding
eye contact .

there was a long silence
indicating them not knowing
what to reply with .

" i swear to god if hyunjin thinks
he can hurt ara's feelings , then i
can teach him a lesson too " jisung
rolled up his sleeves .

minho looked at jisung before
shaking his head .

" you don't need to start anything
jisung , it's already bad as it is "
minho patted my back at the same
time .

" do you think i give a- "
jisung got interrupted as there
was sudden announcement on
the school radio .

" good morning fellow schoolmates , and teachers . today , one of the radio club's close friends has a special request for us . let's welcome hwang hyunjin and give him a round of applause ! "

minho and jisung immediately
turn to look at me . i was having
a confused expression on my face
as the whole canteen started
clapping for him .

" hi , i'm hyunjin from grade 12 and today i'll be playing a special song for someone that means a lot to me , someone whom my heart belongs to , kwon ara "

" oooooooooooh " everyone at the
canteen went .

i heard whispers like " who ? "
and " ooooh her " around me .

( play the video on top now !! and quickly scroll back down here to read the lyrics )

" now i will be singing sunny days and summer nights

neoreul cheoeum mannassdeon nal
the day i first met you

balkge usdeon nege mal georeossdeon nal
the day i talked to you with a bright smile

uriga doen geu yeoreumbam
that summer night that became ours

gamanhi nae soneul jabadeon geu eoneu bam
that one night you held my hand still

gieokhae jigeum yeogi
remember this right here

sarange ppajin uri
us , who fell in love

eonjenga meon husnare
someday in the distant future

geu yeoreumnal tteooreul ttae
when that summer day comes to mind

geuttae gati usja
let's laugh about it together "

"oMG ARA ARE YOU HEARING THIS AAAAAAAAA"
minho started squealing and tugging onto my arm .

i smiled to myself , surprised that hyunjin would do something like this to make up for his mistake

" Sunny days

ne yeope isseulge
i'll be right next to you

yaksokhalge na
i promise

eonjena naege gidaedo dwae
you can always count on me

Rainy days

honjara neukkyeojil ttae
when you feel lonely

pyeonhi swil su issge
so that you can rest comfortably

ije naega neoui
i'll now be

pogeunhan bami doeeojulge
your warm night

uri cheoeum geunalcheoreom
like the first time we met "

as i was listening to the song he was singing , hyunjin suddenly approached to me in the canteen with his hands behind him .

wait isn't he the one singing ??

he stood beside our table and took out a flower which looked like the ones outside our school .

" Right there next to you

Right there next to you

eonjena naege gidaedo dwae
you can always count on me "

" stand up idiot what are
you waiting for " minho
nudged me .

i quickly stood up after the
song was over .

" i never meant to keep it a secret because i was embarrassed , i was just waiting for you to tell me that you're ready , but you never did ... now that i know you got hurt because of this , i feel bad ... so will you forgive me ? " hyunjin asked with a pure smile on his face .

" ..... yes " i giggled before he
proceeded to hug me tightly .

" wait , so who was the one singing ??"
i asked , confused .

" i actually recorded it right before
the announcement , the boys said
something too . they wanted to
apologise for being crappy and
judgemental friends , i hope you
can forgive them too " hyunjin
finally pulled away and held
my hand .

i looked around and then smiled
at bangchan and the rest .

the whole canteen was cheering
by then , how embarrassing . i
never thought my life could be
like one of those cringey kdramas
i watched .

" it's official guys ! hyunjin
and ara are together !! " minho
exclaimed .

jisung was remaining
silent the whole time . until he
noticed that i was looking at him ,
he started chanting " HYUNARA
HYUNARA HYUNARA " with
minho .

hyunjin stared into my eyes and
pinched my nose . i'm felt so
relieved that we made up on the
same day .

is it even possible to stay mad
at this guy ?

perhaps , couple fights aren't that
bad after all ... maybe it's meant
to help us strengthen our bond :3
