ahreum.

i was awaken by a constant 'ding' sound i can hear from my phone. i groaned as i lazily reached for my phone on the table beside my bed. i squinted my eyes so i can adjust to the brightness. when i finally did i opened the notifications i have.

junkyu:

ahreum:

i stood up and opened my curtains only to see junkyu waving at me. he was already on his school uniform and looked really good in it. my mind went blank but not until i remembered i was still in my pajamas. i immediately hid behind the curtains.

"i'm still on my pajamas what the hell?!"

junkyu:

hobby of hiding
behind your curtains
everytime i wave my
hand? haha

ahreum:

"oh my goodness." i said as i hurriedly tie my hair and looked at the mirror. "my eyes are still puffy." i shouted in frustration.

"AHREUM! WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?! IS EVERYTHING OKAY?!" i heard my brother asked.

"NOTHING! I'M FINE!" not.

junkyu:

pretty.

i flushed red at the sudden compliment. is this guy hitting on me?

pft no way. i'm not even his type anyway.

junkyu:
eeeyyy i'm almost
leaving. you have
to wave back. :<

ahreum:
uhm okay?

i stucked my head out but waved at him quickly and closed the curtain.

ahreum:
there.

junkyu:
i could barely see
you :<

but that's okay i
guess.

i have to go! see you
later!

ahreum:
have fun at school!

i peeked through my curtain and watched junkyu enter their car and leave. when i turned around i saw my brother looking at me with a teasing smile.

"w-why?"

"the first thing you did in the morning is look at junkyu hyung and not me?" jaehyuk pouted as he spread his arms. "i'm leaving. give your big brother a tight hug." i giggled as i went closer and hugged hum tightly. "have fun at school, hyuk. don't skip lunch and make sure to attend all your classes!" i reminded him as i stopped hugging him.

he laughed and nodded. "yes mom." i smacked his shoulder and he fake cried. "you hate me now!"

"you guys are having fun without me." we turned around only to see dad crossing his arms while looking at us. "give me a hug too." jaehyuk and i chuckled as we went closer to dad and gave him a tight hug.

"we love you dad!" we said.

"i love you, too. okay let's go jaehyuk. i'm taking you to school. ahreum, just wait for jinhee to arrive and remember..."

"never let anyone in except jinhee." i recited along with dad. "i know dad. don't worry." i smiled. dad kissed my forehead before leaving my room.

"i'll see you later. be a good girl. i'm sorry you have to stay alone everyday. i can't skip classes." jaehyuk sighed, stroking my hair.

"i'm used to it, hyuk." i told him.

"jaehyuk! let's go."

jaehyuk sighed and kissed my forehead. "your breakfast is ready. bye ahreum!"

when he went out of my room, my smile dropped.

it's so lonely here inside.

ding!

i looked at my phone after the sudden notification sound.

kim junkyu sent you a message.

junkyu:
i went to school early
only to find out that
my first class is
cancelled. boohoo
😭😭😭

well, i guess it's not so lonely anymore.
