The Quiet Boy | Lee Seokmin

Chap. 31

Author's POV

They've been exploring the mall for 10 minutes. "I'm thirsty." Seokmin told. "Yeah, let's go get a drink." Yeoreum suggested. They went to the basement floor since there was so many stall and restaurant at that floor.

"You waited here, I'll order." She smiled. Seokmin was playing with his phone while waiting for Yeoreum. Then he looked up to Yeoreum who was queueing on the line waiting for her turn. He then cracked a smile at how beautiful she was. "Wait till one day I'll make you officially mine." He said to himself.

"Oh look who's here? My favourite boy on earth! Of all people, I've met you! We're destined to be together!"

Seokmin felt his left arm being hugged by someone. He was shocked at the sudden action. "Who the heck- oh Yeri? What are you doing here?" He asked. "Hahahahaha you're so funny babe. I'm here for shopping of course. Look! I've bought a new bracelet! Don't it look pretty?" She showed him the bracelet.

"Yes yes it looks pretty." He looked at it. "Hmmmm, let's go." She was about to drag Seokmin but he stopped. "Where?" He frowned. "Accompany me to go shopping of course. Since you're alone, I'm alone then let's go." She said smiling.

"Who says I'm alone?"

She stopped. "Are you with someone?" She asked, sound a little jealous. "Yes. I'm here with Yeoreum." He pointed at Yeoreum who was now paying at the counter. "WhAT?!" She seemed a bit mad. Seokmin was shocked and looked at her innocently.

Soon he smiled when he noticed Yeoreum was walking towards him with two drink in her hands while Yeri was looking at her with hate and anger. "Oh hey, Yeri. You're here. And ya Seokmin this is yours." She gave to him and he happily took it.

"I ordered milk tea for both of us since I don't know what else to drink here and you didn't tell me what drink do you want so yeah." She said. "Oh nevermind, I like milk tea too!" He exclaimed. She smiled.

"Are you guys gonna ignore me over here?" Yeri rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. She glared at Yeoreum and Yeoreum don't know what to say. "Why are you always with him?! Huh? What is his connection to you? You have no connection at all! You're just a stranger that came from out of nowhere and you stole him from me!" She angrily stated.

"Ayy. What's wrong with you? No one is stealing me from anyone. No one owns me. You get it? By the way, she lives with me so no wonder why we always together. And our connection, we're besties." He put his arm around her shoulder which made Yeri more pissed off.

Yeoreum's POV

"WhaT!?!?! You guys live together?!?!" Yeri raised her voice a little which made people around us looked at us. "Shushh! Slow down your voice, will you? We're at public here!" I told her but she became very mad.

"Don't you shushed me here girl. No one tells me what to do! Listen here, you better stay away from him or I'll make your life a misery. Don't you underestimate me. You don't know what I can do." She warned her.

"Hey! That's too much Yeri. Don't you dare blackmailing her. It's you who better stay away from her." Seokmin warned her back. I don't know what kind of situation I'm in but I'm confused.

Yeri just blackmailed me and Seokmin here was just defending me. Okay what?

"Oh really?" Yeri asked, smiling. More like an evil smile. And soon, she left. "What's wrong with that girl?" Seokmin asked confusedly. "I don't know but she sure creepy." I claimed.
"I know right, I never seen this side of her before."

"She's just too obsessed with you. Jeez I think I should learn how to defence myself. I'm scared after hearing her words. Maybe I shouldn't underestimate her. Do you know where I can learn those defending skill? Like taekwondo or karate or anything?" I asked him and he laughed.
