Until I got home already, I can't still stopped thinking about what she was said. It really bothers me a lot, I hid this for a year and I don't want to spread this thing in a wrong time

I sit in the couch and put the toy in the center table in front of me. I could felt that my body was exhausted

Actually, Nathalie was good and kind... back then. Luhan, Nathalie and I are used to be friends. We always hanged out together. But, when Nathalie became Luhan's girlfriend, everything was changed. She act weirdly and starts to ignore me. I tried to talk to her but she just ignored me or she just talked trash to me, so I decided to let her do whatever she wanted to do

That's our friendship ends. Luhan also tried to talk to her why I suddenly became her enemy but he failed. I concluded that maybe she just jealous because I am closer to Luhan than her so, I requested Luhan that he must be put a space between us, we must not hang out anymore because Nathalie must be jealous in the attention and time that he was giving to me than her. At first, he declined but I insist him, especially when I realized that time that I fell for him

I tried to stop my feelings but I can't. I did everything just to forget him, but in the end of the day I will ended up missing him and continue loving him secretly. I can't fight against with my heart because it's really difficult.

I snapped back in reality when the doorbell rang. I stood up and headed to the door. When I opened it, I saw Baekhyun standing.

"Why?" I asked irritatedly like he's disturbing me

"Is that the way you greeted your visitor?" He jokingly asked and he opens the door widely then enter inside

I closed the door and spoke: "Yah! Are you fooling around again?"

"Tss. Don't be silly, I came here to get Sandeok's toy since you have your job tomorrow" He sit in the sofa, leaning comfortably with his feet above the center table

"Put your feet down! The table mantel will be dirty because of your shoes" I whined

"Then clean it, or buy a new table mantel. Either of the two will do" He said lazily

I ignored him and went in my room and get his son's toy then went back to him

"Here" he handled the toy and look in the rubix cube in the center table

He is now seating properly while he is looking at the toy in his front

"When did you have an interest in playing that toy?" he asked suspiciously, grabbing the toy but I quickly snatched it from his hand "Hey, I just checking it!"

"It's none of your business Baekhyun. This is my gift to my friend" I said and immediately put it in the bookshelves near beside me.

"Friend? Let me guess. It is Luhan, isn't it?"

"H-huh? How did you know?"

"I noticed when it's Luhan's birthday you buy some random gift, sometimes it is expensive, but when it comes to us-your other friend, you only bought a simple cheap shirt and sometimes you don't buy us a gift"  he shrugged

I can't answer him back. Is it really obvious?

"Don't worry Min Seok, I already know that there is something" he flashes a mischievous smirk

"What?"

"Nothing" he stood up and went to the door "I gotta go, I have meeting in a few minutes, goodbye!" He went off, leaving me here standing, still processing what he was said

I think it is okay if he know that I have a feelings to Luhan, beside I trust him and he's not close to Luhan, so basically there's no chance to tell him to Luhan

After a few hours, I decided to call Chen and ask him if he is available today, fortunately he is. So, I invited him to come here in my apartment. I want to tell him what happened an hour ago in the mall about Nathalie. He know that I'm not in good terms with Nathalie, but he doesn't know that I love Nathalie's boyfriend

After a few minutes, he arrived here

"Why do you want me to come here? Miss me? Anyway I bought some coffee, you want some?" He put the plastic bag that he handled in the table and put the cans of coffee out in the plastic

I ignored what he sayed and spoke:

"I think Nathalie know about it"

"Huh?" He stopped from putting out the coffee and looked at me, wondering what I'm saying

"Chen, Nathalie know about what I am hiding"

I looked to him with a frustrated expression and I saw he was taken back. It took a seconds before he answered me

"W-what? How did you know? Did she told you that she knew it?" He asked

"I think she know because she's threatening me that if I will tell to Luhan that she's cheating him, she will tell to Luhan about my secret. I don't know Chen"

"She have someone else beside of Luhan-ge?"

"Yes Chen, she doesn't deserve him. He's kind and he love her very much, then she is doing all this thing?"

He walk towards me and sit beside me

"It's their problem Xiumin. Don't butt in. Let Luhan know about Nathalie's another boyfriend"

I didn't talk back. He have a point, but I saw my best friend's girlfriend was with someone else? Did my conscience will let me sleep every night thinking of those scene in the mall? Of course, no. That's why I'm thinking this too much because she's wasting the love that Luhan giving to him, that I am wishing for.

I felt guilty because Chen didn't know that I love Luhan. He just know that he's one of my friends. All this time, I hid it in myself. Yes, it is difficult that you're hiding your feelings in a person, and the worst is it's your best friend. But it is the right thing to do, I'm contented that we have a friend-relationship

Suddenly, Chen grabbed my hand in my lap and gently squeezes it

"Calm down Minseok, I'm here okay?"

"But I'm worried"

"I assure you that no one will never know about this. I assure you" He put his hand in my cheek and softly caresses it

I nodded in response, though I felt a little bit awkward because of what he is doing but I quickly brush it off in my head, he is my friend anyway.

"I'm here Xiumin, always be in your side" said Chen, hugging me tightly "Just don't think too much, everything will be okay"

I closed my eyes and hugged him back, hoping that his word will come true
