The Quiet Boy | Lee Seokmin

Chap. 28

Author's POV

The school time was over. Yeoreum's day were going as usual, she had a lot of happy times with her besties after a long time. The boys were giving a chance to Yeoreum to spend time with her besties.

Uncle Kim then fetched her from school and drove to home. She was greeted by the boys. She was smiling widely to see them. She wanted to forget about the pain in her heart because her heart was too weak to handle it.

"I change my clothes first." She told the boys and ran towards her room.

"It seems like she's happy again." Seungcheol said while waiting for her. "She is. We all could see how happy she was when she saw us." Jun added. "I'm happy for her." Jihoon smiled. "Yes, she looked like she's happy. But she's still hurt in the inside." Minghao told.

"Then let's make the pain go away. Let's not making her feel the pain again." Mingyu stated making them nodded. Few minutes after, Yeoreum went downstairs and joined the boys. "Hi guys." Yeoreum cheerfully greeted them and sat beside Jisoo.

"You seems so happy." Jeonghan looked at her. She nodded. "Yeah, but.. I still can feel the pain. Why is it so hard to make it go away?" Her smile slowly vanished.

She let out a sighed. "I don't want any of this to happen. Just why? I'm not strong enough." She leaned on the sofa and closed her eyes. Tear slowly fell through her cheek. "I don't want to waste my tears anymore but they keep coming out." She wiped it away.

The boys remained silent. "Help me, help me forget about this feeling. I want to be happy again." She begged. "Don't worry, we'll make you happy again like you used to. And Seokmin too." Wonwoo smiled. "All you need to do is move on. Move on with your life. I'm sure you know that, right?" Jisoo patted her shoulder.

Yeoreum smiled to them. "Thank you. Thank you so much for giving me spirit to be happy again. I'll help myself too." She put a wide smile on her face. "It's pretty boring, what are we going to do?" Dino asked out of the blue.

"Molla. Any ideas?" Seungcheol crossed his arms.

"Want to go for a walk?" Soonyoung suggested. "Where?" Jun looked at him. "Um, park maybe? Or the city. Anywhere." He suggested again. The rest were too tired to walk so they disagreed with Soonyoung's idea. He pouted.

"Seokmin, can I, go to your studio? I kind of bored the other day so I went to checked the third floor. I found a studio. I've been there but that time I wasn't asking for your permission. So, can I?" Yeoreum asked. "Oh yeah, I forgot Seokmin has a studio in this house. Well let's go there." Jeonghan said and they went to the third floor.

Yeoreum's POV

I opened the studio's door and switch on the lights. I tried to not be awkward around Seokmin after I confessed to him. I decided to ignore about it. "Wahhhh long time I didn't enter this room." Dino said while wandering around. "Oh I missed this piano." Jun oppa said as he sat on the piano's chair. He looked at the piano like it's his lover.

"Oppa, you can play?" I sat beside him. He nodded. "We used to hang here often. But since what happened to our Seokmin, we never went here. I always play this piano and adores it like it's mine." He gave me a cute smile. "Hyung, play it for us. It's been a long time since you play." Seungkwan suggested.

He then play an emotional music. All eyes glued at him as he played like a pro. There's a smile formed on my face while looking at him then to his fingers that pressed the piano keys. After that, he finished. We all clapped our hands and praised him.

"You're so good! You play it like a pro." I praised him while clapping my hands. He laughed and thanked. "Noona noona can you play it too?" Hansol asked me. The boys looked at me and suddenly I felt nervous.
