Cheer up baby (Jihyo x female reader)

Chapter 9

~Y/n's POV~
"I'm going with you. I'll start packing today."

"Whaaaat? Are you sure? Why all of a sudden?" Joy questioned me. I took a deep breath and tried to hold on my tears.

"I-I confessed to Jihyo. Of course she said no, she's in love with Megan instead. I don't want to make it any more awkward between us so I'm going with you." I said all in one breath. It became silent as I waited for her response.

"...Y/n are you sure you want to do this? I don't want you to regret anything." She sighed and I immediately answered yes.

"...ok be done packing by tuesday. Your last day of school will be on Wednesday and we'll spend Thursday packing. Friday is when we'll finally be leaving." She said and I nodded writing it all day. We said bye and I took a deep sigh. Today was Friday night so I better start packing. I called my parents to tell them that I was leaving and they were against it but I'm still doing it.

Tuesday
I packed up all my belongings and stuffed them into 3 boxes. To be honest, I threw majority of my things away and only kept clothes, hygiene, toys etc. Joy was here too, cleaning up the kitchen and bathroom. As I cleaned up my room I saw a note from Jihyo from about 5 years ago.

Dear y/n~
Today is Valentine's Day! I love you very much! Remember to take care of yourself and call me whenever. Even though I'm going to college this year, I'll always be by your side! I'm happy to have you as a friend as you always stood by my side and defended me. I will fight for you till the end of time and even when we are married to someone else. I'll never leave you and will be your number 1 friend and supporter!
~Love, Park Jihyo😊💕

I continued to reread the letter over and over again. I never realized that I kept this letter and how long ago it seems. Now she was happily in a relationship but not by my side. My eyes started to water (probably from the dust) and I tightened my grip on the letter. Oh the irony of this letter. Joy then came in and looked at me concerned.

"Y/n are you crying?" She asked me and I shook my head and wiped my "tears" away. "What's that paper for!" She quietly asked and I looked at her and smiled.

"Oh it's nothing. Just some useless piece of paper I found." I smiled and I crumbled up the letter and placed it in a garbage bag.

Wednesday
Today was my official last day of school. My class planned me a party and the day was spent doing fun things like watching a movie, playing games.

"Y/nnnnnnnn please don't leave us!" Hana cried out as she hugged on to my waist. I chuckled before pulling her off. It was our last 10 minutes together and we were eating cupcakes and chips.

"Geeeez it's not like I can't call or FaceTime you guys!" I reassured but she still continued to cry. Dohee came over to me and gave me a hug before flicking her finger at my forehead

"You pabo! How could you leave us like this!" Dohee angrily scolded me with sadness in her tone. I gave her a pat on the head.

"I know you're scolding me to hide your sadness." I teased her and she growled before laughing.

"Ahhh you pabo! But seriously I'm gonna miss you!" She said and I pulled her and Hana into a hug.

Ding Ding
The bell rung, thus ending my last day at this school. Dohee and Hana started crying a lot, making me wanna cry too.

"Byeeeee! I'm gonna miss you all! I love you!" I said to my class. They all waved goodbye at me as I left the class. I hurried out the school building and outside. I seen a black limo and already knew that it was Joy. I ran over and she rolled down her window.

"Come on in! How are you feeling?" She asked me as I entered the limo. I sighed before giving a half smile.

"I don't know. I feel sad but relieved at the same time." I mumbled and she gave me a pat on the back. But I didn't really feel all relieved. I still thought about Jihyo. She hasn't sent me any text or calls. I called her and immediately went to voicemail. I decided to leave a voicemail and a few texts.

"Hey Jihyo it's me, call me back whenever you have time or don't. But I really wanna talk."

I ended the voicemail and joy gave me a pat on the back. We stopped at a restaurant and ate before heading back to her apartment.

"Get some good rest. We have a long day tomorrow." She gave me a blanket and pillow and kissed me goodnight. It was only 10 pm but I was dog tired. I was dead asleep within 30 minutes despite sharing a small air mattress with Joy.

Thursday
I woke up at 8 am to a sunny sky and Joy cooking breakfast. I checked my phone and still no response from Jihyo. However she did post a picture of herself with Megan on Instagram. Apparently they went on a date.

"Y/n come eat your breakfast. We have a lot to do today." She sung in a honey like voice. I ran into to the kitchen and was in love with all the food. We sat on the floor and ate pancakes, eggs, bacon, fruit and drunk smoothies. After eating we got to work and finished packing her apartment. It was noon and we were bored.

"Well y/n today is your last day in Seoul. What do you want to do?" She asked me and I smiled. There's a ton of things I always wanted to do.

"Get ready for a day of adventure." I smirked and pulled out a list of things to do.

First we went to the mall and got boba and shopped around. Then we went to the amusement park and got a crap ton of tickets. I rode on pretty much every ride while Joy only rode a few. Afterwards we stopped at a food market and ate until I felt as if I was gonna bust.
Friday
"Come on y/n lets go! Our flight is at 2:30!" Not rushed me as we were packing our final things. I rushed downstairs and we headed to the limo. I was nervous as it was my first time leaving the country. And who knows when I'll be back.

"Are you ready?" Joy asked and I nodded even though I was nervous. She then put on a baseball cap and a face mask. We went in and her security carried her bags. We finally were sat in the waiting area and waited for our flight to be called. I sat and checked my phone to see if Jihyo ever replied. She never did. It's been days and she never bothered to open it either. Did she ever care about me in the 1st place?

"New York flight at 2:30 is ready." The intercom said and we got up. As we walked I stopped and became nervous. Was I doing the right thing? Everything was happening so fast.

"What's wrong?" Joy asked and I smiled and went along.

"Ah nothing I just thought for a bit." I grinned and she gave an unconvinced look but pulled my cheeks playfully. After some time we were finally on the plane and was first class. We put our luggage above us and sat down.

"Ahhh I'm so excited." Joy smiled and squeezed my hand. I sat in my chair and thought about it. Damn I really am leaving my home country. Who knows what my future is to hold? As the plane took off i went on Instagram. Jihyo posted a picture an hour ago with Megan at a food market. I went back to messages. Still no reply whatsoever. I stared at our messages for who knows how long. I reread everything and missed those times. I smiled a bit and felt tears start to form. I wiped my eyes and clicked Delete Contact. 5 years worth of messages gone. Years wasted. I looked out the window and placed my headphones in and played Into the New world.
