IRRESEPLACEABLE (PARK JINYOUNG X READER)

#10

I've been avoiding Mr. Park like a plague.

I was so embarrased with myself I couldnt bring myself to talk to him.

"So, Rose, any plans for Christmas?" Juyeong asked.

"Nothing. My parents will be home, so I guess I'll spend it with them"

"Make your 25th open. The whole class is planning to have a party at Suho's place"

"I hear the guy's loaded" Euntaek added.

"Okay. I'll come" I agreed. It will be a good way to clear my heads after all.

After school, I stopped by at the bookstore, where I spent most of my leisure time. I used to go here with Mr. Park a lot. Its an old building, and rather small, so there usually arent many people, five at the most. So, it became our regular hangout place.

Ugh, I'm thinking about him again.

I hate myself. Why cant I just forget him. But, not a single day goes by in the past months that I dont think of him. I really like him after all.

As I scanned around the books, the door swung open to reveal a familiar face that I have been avoiding for the past months.

I hide behind the bookshelves. And to make things more worse, he keeps coming near me.

When he finally stopped and began scanning the books, I take it as a cue and decided to slip out.

I took about only four steps when he snatched me in my bag, aburptly stopping me.

"Yah yah yah, where do you think you're going?"

"Oh hi there Mr. Park. Didnt see you there?" I laughed nervously. Okay, that came out really weird.

He loosened his grip and I turned to face him.

"You've been avoiding me, a lot. In the beginning I thought you just want to spend time with your friend, but now, it became obvious that you dont want to hang around with me anymore"

No, thats not true.

"So, I want to make sure there's no misunderstanding between us, and we can part ways, Rose. If thats what you want"

"I'm sorry. Its just, its me. I dont hate you at all. I still wants to be friends with you" I confessed, the last part came out as a whisper though. My tears were about to fall any moment.

"What was that?" He teased.

"I still want to be friends idiot!" I shouted at him, but quickly covered my mouth when I realized what I just did.

Tear rolled down in my cheeks, and another, then another, they just keep coming.

I harshly wiped it with my sleeves. Mr. Park stopped me, holding me firmly in my wrist. With his other hand, he gently wiped my tears. He then gave me a small smile and patted me on cheeks.

"Do you wanna have dinner with me, my 'friend'?" He asked, trying to imitate Mark's english.

Its just too cute.

I nodded.

I just fell in love with him more and more.
