The One That Got Away-s.rj x c.js

Me and Vin spent those two weeks pretty much together. She waits for me in the morning at the field and walked me to our home in the evening. We were also texting or either calling at night.

"Vin told me—"

"You mention her pretty much everyday these days." My dad caught me red-handed.

"Well, we spent the past two weeks together and she asked me if we can go out later." I explained.

"She's asking you out?" I saw my father's playful smile. Oh God, he's shipping me with Vin too.

"Not that kind of ask though but It's not the first time!" I covered my mouth immediately after I realized what I just said.

"Bingo! So, are you two together or what?" He seems interested with her. I face palmed, why did I even mention it to my nosy father.

"We're friends." I smiled timidly at him and continued eating.

"Friends huh? I didn't know that friends are suppose to drop you off at home with a kiss on the cheek and a hug at 9 o'clock in the evening. I didn't know that friends stare at their friends while sleeping in a video call. I didn't know that friends are like that, my bad." My father is really good with sarcasm, oh my gosh.

"We don't pretty much label things, so I think we're friends?" I answered truthfully.

"That's it. You're more than friends but less than lovers. Guard your heart, princess. Though you must be both infatuated now, but you both need assurance and consistency. In time, I know you'll both ask for it." He really is a love guru. Being a chick magnet way back his teenage years, he managed to observe people.

"I don't know, dad." I shrugged and continued eating. "I'm going with the flow, ya know. I'm still enjoying it. But, I'll inform you once I feel something more." I assured him. We're close to each other so, I always tell him my struggles. He's my best friend, my dad, my protector and my first man.

"Enjoy your teenage life, princess. Just don't get pregnant, or get drunk at the bar because you can get wasted at this house, or try doing drugs." I nodded at him.

"So today's your christmas party, right?" He asked and I nodded as an answer. I'm wearing my usual clothes. Skinny jeans, printed cropped polo, denim jacket and black with a touch of white Air Force 1 shoes. Nothing new with my outfit. My mom tied my hair into a clean high ponytail again.

I kissed my dad goodbye and received my daily allowance bafore hopping inside my car.

"Don't pick me up later." I told my driver and entered the campus. I walked to our classroom and sent Vin a message that I'm already at school. My phone vibrated and her reply appeared. She asked me to go outside our classroom. I did what she asked me to do. As soon as I stepped out of the room a warm hug engulfed me. I hugged her back and kissed her cheeks.

"Why?" I asked her as soon as she released me from the hug.

"Nothing, I just want a hug and kiss from you." She smiled adorably. I pinched her cheeks and noticed that we almost have the same outfit. She have her skinny jeans too, her denim jacket and a pair of pure black Nike Air force 1 shoes. But instead of cropped polo like mine, she got a hoodie and a beanie.

"And you're not addicted to it, you say?" I jokingly said which made her blush. I found it cute and pinched her tomato cheeks. I kissed her again and told her to go back to her classroom. I went back inside for the party is about to start.

After a few hours, the party came to an end. We bid each other goodbye and parted ways. I saw an adorable blue-haired girl waiting for me outside the Senior High School's building. She walked to me and smiled adorably.

"Hey, wait up. Stand beside each other, let me hold this for you. Smile!" Den suddenly said. We smiled at her polaroid camera. She took two smiling photos of us and two wacky photos. She said she took it so we won't fight over the pictures. I shook my head in amusement and bid her goodbye. We divided the photos and started to walk. She intertwined her fingers with mine as we walk. She is really sneaky. We walked until we reach their home. She said she'll drop off the gifts she got before we stroll around the mall. We entered their home and her mom, aunts, grandma and some of her cousins welcomed us. I didn't know their house is filled with guests, gosh. She greeted them all and kissed them. I bowed at them as she introduce me to her family. They all asked my name which I continuously answered.

"I'm Yuri Choi."

We bid them goodbye as soon as she came back from her room.

"Sorry about my family." She rubbed her nape shyly.

"It's fine."

"It's just that, I never brought anyone at our house even my friends." I nodded with what she said. We reached the mall after walking for a couple of minutes. We went to the arcade station and played a lot. We got bunch of tickets after almost three hours and exchanged it with a stuffed toy. It's a yellow baby cupid stuffed toy named Qoobee Agapi. She told me it's our first kid. We went for some try at the claw machine and in her fifth try luckily, she got a white cute stuffed toy. She named it Milky Way and told me it's our second kid.

"You got good genes, then." I said and stared at the stuffed toys I am holding.

"They're really adorable." I said and hugged it.

"Of course." She said cockily. I rolled my eyes at her and we went inside a fast food chain. I don't like to eat at fancy restaurants. I prefer eating home-cooked foods than eating at a restaurant.

We ordered and paid for it before finding a table to eat. We found one at the secluded part of the place. People barely come at that area, actually we are the only people in there. Our order was served and we started eating right away. She was about to get a bite from my chicken when I stopped her from doing so. She's allergic to it but still being a hard-headed as she is. She doesn't listen to her doctor and still eats chicken. I slapped her hands causing her to retreat it and pout.

"No, young lady. That won't work on me." I said and continued to eat.

She ate silently and didn't talk to me the whole meal. It's fine for me though, I'd rather have her mad at me than let her eat that chicken. She might have rashes again all over her body. I don't want her to suffer like that. She told me the last time she ate chicken, she never fell asleep that night because her body was so itchy.

"Hey, don't be mad or anything. I'm sorry, I care for you that's why I'm doing this. I don't want you to suffer from body itching again. I'm also trying to save your ass from getting scolded." I said as I held her arms. I looked at her with a hint of sadness. She pouted and said sorry to.

"I'm sorry for being childish." She hugged me and I swear I'm gonna punch whoever make this precious kid cry.
