i wake up to a good morning text from changbin, which makes my lips curl up in a wide smile.

changbinnie 🤧🥰🤞❤
good morning naeun, i hope you slept well! i know i did :)

me
i did sleep well, actually, and i'm glad you did too!

i roll my eyes at changbin's contact name, and change it, then i wait for him to text back.

surprisingly, my phone dings almost immediately.

binnie 💞
same goes for you
i enjoyed talking to you last night :)

i smile widely.

me
i enjoyed talking to you too bin!

binnie 💞
we should do it again sometime!

i blushed bright red.

i really had enjoyed talking to changbin. it was so much easier than i had expected it to be, and he was funny. he was funny and sweet, and talking to him made me forget about school, about my mom, about all my worries.

but now, it was rushing back. i knew my friends were right, when they said the changbin situation was really about my mom.

i'm afraid to get involved with changbin, and that is the truth.

i'm afraid to get involved with him because i'm afraid he'll become a distraction. and i can't afford distractions. i have to work hard to get the best grades i can to make my mom proud of me.

i'm afraid to get involved with hi. because i'm afraid i'll end up disappointing my mother.

but for now, i'll try to handle both. i want to keep changbin around as long as i possibly can.

me
yeah, i think i'd like that alot!

binnie 💞
cool!

my heart began to beat a little faster in my chest. was changbin asking me on a date?

me
