Eunhee
“Sleeping again?” I sighed during our last class. Sometimes I feel that I’m the only one excited to be with him during our review classes. He does not look interested the whole day! It feels like he only goes to school because.. uhm.. What could the reason be?
I stood up and cleared my table. I thought of a way to wake up Key today. “KEY THERE’S A FIRE WE’RE TRAPPED WAKE UP! OH MY GOD OH—“ he stood up and covered my mouth with his hand and the his other hand was on my waist. “Are you trying to find ways to wake me up?” He smirked.
I nodded. He slowly removed his hand on my mouth. With both hands on my waist, he turned my body infront his and whispered “This will do.” Key leaned towards me, trying to initiate a kiss. I wrapped my hands around his neck and was leaning closer to him. It’s true, this is not the first time that we will kiss but I still feel the butterflies in my stomach and the nervousness in the air. It happens all the time, I’m curious if it occurs on him as well.
Suddenly, the door opened with a loud bang. On our surprise, we pulled away from our close interaction and checked who was there.
“Key-oppa..” Yongjoo cried, almost collapsing to the floor.
Yongjoo
Good thing our house here in Daegu is the same street with Key oppa’s house. I have the excuse to go home with him every time.
I guess he’s not leaving the class yet. Knowing him, he’s probably sleeping right now. He maybe does not even know that it’s already dismissal. ‘So cute of him.’ I chuckled to myself.
“Yong Joo-ya!” Jonghyun waved outside my class. Why is he here already? Do I need to deal with this guy as well? I have received atleast 3 confessions today but among all of those I have rejected, this one’s the most persistent.
“You’re here again.” I said with my not so amused voice. “I thought you would miss me.”
“Oh the confidence, I can’t handle it.”
“You have to; I’m going to be here till you give up.” Jonghyun said positively.
“I need to live, Jonghyun-ah. Give me space to breath.” I said sarcastically.
He moved a meter away from me. “Good enough?” I mentally facepalmed myself. Why do I deserve this kind of guy?!
I watched my classmates leave the room. One of the girls patted my shoulder and said “Good luck, Nicole-sshi. That’s a very consistent one. Not sure if it’s in a good way though” she left off with her friends and waved at me. Ofcourse, I waved back with a smile on my face.
I faced Jonghyun again—and removed the smile on my face—This misfortune, oh my God!
I took my bag and left the class. Of course, he’s tailing me. He just said he will. “Where are you going, this is not the way out.” He advised. “To Key-oppa, I need to fetch him.” Why am I explaining to this guy? Is he my boyfriend? Ugh, I have no time to argue. “Uh-Key? Uh-uhm I think he left off already.” Jonghyun stuttered. “Let’s go now, Yong Joo-ah.”
“Too Late, Kim Jonghyun. We’re already here.” I wagged my fingers at him and looked at the window. It was Eunhee and Key-oppa. What are they doing?!
Suddenly, Jonghyun hugged me and said “You don’t deserve to see that, Yong Joo-ah.” With his soothing voice. I felt the warmth of his comfort but it didn’t stop me. I pulled away and saw more of their intimacy. I banged the door open and I felt my knees losing the ability to stand.
I never thought I could encounter this again. Not to mention, it’s the same face. I have unrequitedly loved Key for several years but I can never get used to this. I felt like dying, the first time I saw them together. The first time I have learned that they’re together. It feels like I’m being stabbed in the chest for a hundred times.
It hurts so much, seeing the guy you love, the guy you want to give happiness to but can’t, the guy you have always prioritized, with the girl he loves.
“Key oppa.” I cried. Jonghyun tried to help me up and I accepted his offer. I fell on his chest, my body became so weak. I can’t stand on my own. “Take me away, Jonghyun.” I whispered.
Key
“Yong Joo ah.” I stepped forward towards her. “Not now, Key oppa. Let’s talk later.” She left off with Jonghyun while he supports her body to move. Good thing Jonghyun was there, I’m so worried about her.
“She’s just shocked.” Eunhee patted my back and comforted me. “I know. It was like that with Hana too. She almost attempted suicide that time.” Eunhee was so surprised and left her mouth gaped. “Don’t worry! She won’t try to kill herself this time. I assure you!” I guaranteed.
“Yong Joo has grown up now and besides, Jonghyun is with her. He’ll take care of her.”
(A/N: Long time no update for this story. I just finished my exams last week and the results aren't that well. Just sharing, hehe.)
