Thank U for Being on My Side | ATEEZ Yunho

#33

He walks a few steps behind you, he knew he shouldn't have said that to you. He knew well that you always try to see the good part in everything. You are not a try-hard, you always worked your full capacity to achieve your goal, you want to be proud of yourself. However, you seems to be too ambitious sometimes and that won't do good for you.

You can see your house from the intersection, you heard his footsteps still following you quietly. Then you turn to face him. "You should be going on your way now" you keep your eyes on the pavement. You don't know why but you feel so dejected, you got off work exhausted just to be lectured and called a try-hard by him, how you could feel better.

"Y/n you know I didn't mean it, it comes out before I could think properly, and I'm sorry for that." he defended himself.

"Yunho please, I was just too tired of this, a nice sleep would help so you can go now.." 

"I won't go if you're still mad at me"

"I'm not mad! I was just.. tch.." you sighed as you can't hide the fact that you're actually mad, not by him though, but by yourself. Sometimes your over-thinking self took over and switched on your emotional state, you can get upset over any little petty things.

Still standing on your place, Yunho then walks to you. He reached for your arms and bend his back adjusting to your height. "Y/n-ah look at me.. I know it's been hard for you, but I know you're always sincere with everything you do, and that made me so envious. All my life I've been a puppet for my parents, I didn't really enjoy what I've been doing...until we met again." He paused a bit. 

"I need to live meeting their expectations, they nearly turned me into an android if not because of the guys, I'm sure you haven't forget about that. And now I have another reason to live my life; to make the one I love happy. I want to give her everything she deserves, the praises, the love, and the happiness in this world especially for her." he stop to look at your face, you got teary eyes.

"I don't want my love to be mad, maybe I went overboard for worrying about you too much, but I really hope you to take one step at a time, don't push yourself too hard. If you got hurt, I'll be hurt too~" he said the last part cutely.

You just stood there until you bring yourself into his chest. You are more than happy to have him by your side. You still question yourself if you deserved him. "Yunho it's not your fault, it's me who's being overboard.. and your kind words really touched my heart" you look up to face him "Did I deserves you?" you keep staring into his eyes. His loving smile didn't leave his face "We deserved each other, that's what I believe." He then pulled you into a tight hug.

--the next day: at the restaurant--

"Are you feeling better?" mr. Baek asked you while you're munching your lunch.

"Yes mr. Baek, I'm fine now" you smile at him.

"Good then, I hope you can manage for today because I won't be here all day"

"I'll show my best, I've reviewed your tips over and over so I can do better, you can count on me!" you said enthusiastically.

"Yah I like your spirit young lady, keep that up!" you're actually nervous but you try to shrug it off.

There your third day go, you still got your orders mixed up but you can handle it now without breaking down. You're slightly disappointed but that's better than messing up. "Phew~ I barely got through today, well done Y/n-ah" you said to yourself.

"Y/n-ah good job today!" you look up to see the head chef approaches you.

"Yeah I think I did pretty okay chef.." you smile slightly.

"Nah you're improving and that's what matters!"

"It's all thanks to you and the other chefs for helping me, sorry for being burdensome." you and your modesty.

"Well if you're a burden we could have fired you already Y/n-ah, come on we all know you're serious in this, and I know you can do this well."

You chuckle softly," Thank you chef, I'll do my best, please don't fire me~" he laughed at that.

"Hello?"

"Did you get fired?"

"Yah why did you always ask that Seonghwa-ssi!"

"Ahahahah I'm just joking.. I haven't heard from you since forever!" 

"It's been only three days hwa.. Why? Is there anything matter?"

"Umm nope, I just.. uh how should I say.."

"Whyyyy don't make me curious here, tell meeee~"

"Well.."

Long story short, Seonghwa won't be in a relationship soon. He caught her crush with a man doing lovey-dovey things a few hours ago when he's out to buy some materials at the market. She didn't know that Seonghwa noticed them, she must have no idea that he won't hit on her anymore. You try to say that it's maybe her best friend or maybe her family but you're not sure yourself so you can't really say anything. You prompt him to talk to her but he thinks that there's no hope for him and her anyway.

⭐ the argument made the both of you closer, you're upset but he's there to wipe it away. you got better being a chef yourself, it's only a matter of time that you'll enjoy doing your job without being restless. 

so i still have plans for you and the guys, even though you went your own way now, they gonna appear somewhere along the story. ⭐
