❝ my best boyfriend ❞

chapter three: feelings...

MINA's POV

i dragged bambam by the wrist all the way out of the classroom.

mina: yah!- didn't i just told you to treat me like your noona?!- i'm not yours and i will never be! quit dreaming, bambam, we're only friends!!-

he sighed and looked down. i could see him clenching his fists.

bambam: we're only friends, huh?!- then why are you avoiding me?!- i literally saved you from falling the other day, and no- you didn't thank me or anything! instead, you left me in the ditch, and you didn't even bother to explain what the hell i did wrong!!-
mina: bambam-ya... i- i had other complicated things going on in my life-

a lie. a complete lie. i knew damn well that it was all him. why i avoided him, and why i told him to treat me like his noona- it was all just because of him.

and i don't want to accept that i probably have feelings for him too. i mean, am i out of my mind?!- i can't like a friend i've had for nearly half of my life!- i would just... lose him.

bambam: problems?!- and you could've told me about them!!- i've been your friend for so many years now, and you still don't trust me with your problems?!- i hate it when you do this to me, mina, i hate it when you leave me in the dark and stop talking to me!

before i knew it, tears fell out of my eyes and rolled down my cheeks.

bambam: if this was what you wanted all along... i'll leave you alone. because i don't want to see you anymore, mina. why should i hang around someone who doesn't even want me to be with them? and i mean it. goodbye, myoui mina.

i grabbed his hand.

mina: bambam- please...

he shook my hand off.

and that was not what i wanted. at all. tears fell out continously from my eyes. i fell to the floor. did i care if anyone was staring at me at this moment? no. i was left there, sobbing until someone offered me his hand.

i looked at whoever it was, my vision blurry. it was eunwoo. i accepted his hand and he helped me up.

eunwoo: mina?- are you okay?

he handed me a packet of tissues. i took them and wiped my tears. i nodded slightly.

eunwoo: follow me. you should wash your face.

he grabbed me by my wrist and pulled me to wherever we were going to. i didn't care, because i didn't know what to think at that moment.

he pulled me all the way to the nearest washroom.

eunwoo: go in. wash your face. i'll be waiting out here for you.

i forced a fake smile at him and went into the washroom.

i washed my face the best that i could, but either way i still looked like a mess. i was trying to ignore the fact that my heart could explode any moment, the fact that i could just break down any moment.

i left the washroom to see eunwoo still waiting there. i was relieved, because i didn't want to be alone at that moment. i approached him.

mina: i'm done.
eunwoo: really? let's go then...

he grabbed my wrist again.

mina: why are you so kind to me?
eunwoo: why shouldn't i be? you were kind to me earlier too...

i smiled at him.

eunwoo: now let's go, it's lunch and you must be hungry... i'll treat you!

i felt and heart my stomach grumble.

i looked awkwardly at eunwoo.

mina: i- sorry...
eunwoo: see?- you're hungry. kajja.

i smiled and let him take my hand.

he took me for lunch to somewhere outside of school, instead of the cafeteria. i wanted to ask why, but at the same time, i was relieved. i don't think i would have been able to eat with so many people staring at us. but when i realised that he was taking me to the BASKIN ROBBINS, i panicked. i mean, yes, i would very much like to eat cake now, but it would be something too expensive for him to treat me to.

we entered the almost deserted cafe, sitting far away from the other customers.

mina: yah... why are you treating me to somewhere expensive like this? i can pay by myself.
eunwoo: no. i'll pay for you. and also, you've just stopped crying, i'd feel bad for you if you were to pay by yourself.
mina: fine, i guess...
eunwoo: what do you want?
mina: ah?- cheesecake would be fine...

but i still felt guilty to let him pay.

i stared out of the glass window to see the sky getting dark. i guess it would be a pretty cold journey back to school-

once he returned, we talked about so many things, i swear, that i knew he would be one of those people i would keep close to my side. he gave me that kind of vibe i felt with my close friends. it didn't feel awkward around him at all-

time skip - after school

the journey back to school had been really cloudy. luckily, we arrived in school before it could start raining. and the whole day just seemed dark. i just felt lonely without him, and even though i had classes with my other eight friends, being with him and them are just- different...

however, it started to rain when we were about to finish school... since i didn't have an umbrella, i went to the school's office to borrow one. i decided that i was going home alone today, since i didn't feel like hanging out with anyone else except eunwoo...

and with that, i left for home after getting one from the school's office. i didn't expect to meet anyone on the way... i was in my own world before i realised that i had bumped into someone. the umbrella i was holding fell out of my hand before i knew it- i had almost fell onto the wet hard pavement, for one thing...

mina: AH!!!-

the person that bumped into me grabbed my arm and pulled me so that i landed in his chest.

and that was when i realised- i could hear...

a familiar heartbeat.

i looked up to see-

bambam.

as soon as i realised, i quickly escaped his embrace.

mina: i- sorry...

it was silent. for a really long time, to me...

bambam: watch where you're going next time. i told you that i never wanted to see you again. so get lost, myoui mina.

i couldn't control myself. i found my tears pouring out of my eyes once again. i fell to the ground. but instead of seeing him help me up, he walked away, just like he did before.

i sat down there, sobbing on the wet ground, for the next thirty seconds... until someone came to save me. again.

it was eunwoo oppa.

he helped me up. i could hear him asking me whether i was okay but i ignored him. or rather, i was too distracted by my thoughts...

i just knew that-

from now on, bambam will be a much different person. he will no longer be the boy whom i growed up with, to find out that i had feelings for him all this while.

bambam... is a completely different person now.
