Why Her? (SaiDa)

41 - Get It

Jeongyeon POV

I'm sitting in the couch, waiting for my mom. I'm going to talk to her about Nayeon again. I know she's not going to change, but I have to try again.

"What do you want to talk about?" She asks me finally sitting in the couch. "It's not about that girl again, is it?"

"It's about her" I say and she sighs. "My girlfriend"

"You can't force me to like someone, Jeongyeon" She says. "If I don't like your girlfriend I have my reasons"

"What are your reasons?" I ask, looking at her in the eyes. "You're always saying that you hate her and that you have your reasons, but you've never told me the reasons"

"I'm worried about you" She says. "Nayeon doesn't seem like a good person"

"Nayeon is a good person, mom" I say. "How can you have that opinion about someone that you don't even know?"

"I don't owe any explanation" She says getting up off the couch.

"You're right" I say. "But I don't owe you any explanation either. And that means I can bring my girlfriend here whenever I want to"

I start getting up off the couch to got to my room, but I feel someone touch on my shoulder and it was my mother.

"I'll tell you my reasons" She says sighing. "Please, don't hate me"

"I don't hate you"

"I'm scared" My mom says, making me confused. "What if she hurt you like him?"

She didn't need to tell me who was him. I already knew who she was talking about.

"She won't" I say. "He hurt me, but that doesn't mean Nayeon will. I trust her with my life"

"You said the same thing about him" She murmurs.

"I was 13" I say. "Of course I didn't know what I was doing at that time. But I grew up and learn a lot of things. Now I'm 19. I know what I'm doing now. And I love Nayeon. You could try to like her at least, because she has never done anything bad to you"

"I know" She sighs. "I'm afraid that she may do something bad to you"

"But she hasn't" I interrupt her. "Imagine this: Someone hurt you. That doesn't mean everyone is going to hurt you. There's bad people, but there's good people. Do you get it?"

"I get it"

"Can you try to like her?" I ask her with a pout. "For me"

"I can try" She answers. "But I can't promise you that I will like her"

"I can promise you that you will like her" I say. "Because it's impossible to not like her"
