"Behind it" - Cai Xukun FF (ip+sk ff)

Chapter 15 - Friends

Natalie's POV

"Open this door, you have 10 seconds to do it or I'm calling the police to open this stupid door!" a voice woke me up and I lazily got up from the bed with my eyes still closed. Stretching my aching body I made it to the door and unlock them sighing deeply.

The person from the other side must have heard my moves since he opened the door harshly almost making me fall.

"Do you want to tell me why Jisung asked me to take his things from your house?!" Kate asked me crossing her arms in front of her as if she had wanted to look angry.

"Because he broke up with me," I answered truthfully still not fully awake. I made myself to the kitchen and started to prepare some tae for myself while the girl followed me.

"I know that part...but why...he didn't tell me why even thought I asked him few times about that but he was just 'nevermind, just take my clothes because I don't want to go to that house' so here I am hoping to get some answers from you," the girl explained flopping down on the chair as I was busy making breakfast.

"Are you hungry?" I questioned gaining a murderous glare from her. If she only had had a knife next to her I would have been stabbed probably. She titled her head to the side and kept looking at me as if I was at least mentally ill.

"What?"

"Are you hungry?" I repeated my question and the girl gave me another glare. "I guess you're not," I responded to myself not interrupting the preparation.

I heard Kate getting up from her seat and soon after I could see her with the corner of my eye. I didn't look at her thought and just continued cooking anxiously waiting for her next words.

"Tell me...did something happen?"

Oh yes...a lot of things has happened, but you wouldn't believe me if I told you anyways...

"There's no chemistry between us anymore...it's just like that...we just weren't meant for each other I guess," I said hiding some facts. What was surprising about it is that I didn't feel bad, sad or depressed because of the break up. I just felt normal.

"WHAT?! I've been shipping him with you for so long! You were my favourite ship and now what?! You're telling me there's no chemistry between you two?!" Kate shouted while I was finishing my breakfast. She took few big breaths and opened her mouth again. "But it's true Jisung could have treated you better...he was too busy in the company but if Changbin manage to make time for me, Jisung should be also able to make some time for you."

I stopped what I was doing not expecting these words from her. Nonetheless I couldn't disagree with what she said. Maybe all that time it was just me who believed in that relationship even thought it had actually ended much earlier.

I couldn't even remember the last time he took me on the date or spent some more time with me. The only surprises he used to make was coming back home from time to time before I went to bed, but then Jisung just directly went to sleep not even talking with me.

"I know that even Chan made more effort than Jisung did," Kate suddenly added waking me out of my little trance. "Maybe I should have shipped you with him from the very beginning."

My eyes went wide and I looked at her with a questionable expression.

"What? That's true...he is a good man...and your style-"

"Okay, you know I have to hurry up. I have to go to the dance studio today," I desperately tried to stop that sensitive topic and move on to the next one. I sat on the table with my food and a cup of white tea with Kate following behind me.
