Minhyuk's p.o.v :-
I heard that Jiwoo's helping Kevin. I don't know what came over me, but I want to stay here now.
"I'll help too."
I said that and Kevin widened his eyes. Shucks! He knows I never offer to help. I only do the chores when its my turn to do them.
"Really?" Kevin asked.
"Yeah! What's there to be so shocked about?" I replied in a counter question.
I don't know why I'm even doing this. Wait Kevin's face expressions are changing. IS HE THINKING THAT I'M JEALOUS? WHY WOULD I BE JEALOUS?
"Are you....." he was about to complete his question when I stopped him midway.
"It's not what you think." I said.
"But I just wanted to say that you're trying to compete with Jiwoo. Like, trying to show that you're better in this."
He said, trying to change the topic. I know he didn't mean what he said. He's saying that because of Jiwoo.
Of course she would understand what he meant by his 'Are you..' She's not that oblivious.
"Yes! Kevin's right."
Ok! I was wrong. She's oblivious to this right now. I wanna go back to my room now. I said some shit to her, earned a side eye in return and got back to my room.
I closed the door behind me and let out the breath I didn't know I was holding in. I don't what's wrong with me.
I mean whenever this woman is infront of me, my heart starts to beat so fast.
I feel like my heart's just about to explode.
I feel tingly in my stomach.
I feel proud when she smiles because of me.
I want her to be comfortable around me.
I can't see her crying.
I hate to see her sad.
I hate those who make her sad.
She's so beautiful, cute and kind.
She thinks so positively. She doesn't let shit get to her.
I like how her eyes twinkle when she smiles. How she tucks her hair behind her ear when she's thinking about something.
How she sticks out the little edge of her tongue when focused on her work.
How she tries to fight, even when she knows she'll lose.
....
I was smiling. Unknowingly. Suddenly, the realisation hit me like an effing truck.
I'm thinking about Jiwoo!
Baek Jiwoo!!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!
I slap my face very hard. I hissed at the burn. I checked my face in the mirror and indeed, my cheek's red.
I don't know why I'm thinking like this. I should probably sleep.
I lay in my bed pulled the covers up and almost immediately I was in my dreamland.
Timeskip :-
*alarmbell ringing*
Minhyuk's p.o.v :-
I woke up to my alarm. It turned it off. I checked the time. It was 6 in the morning.
I got out of my bed, did a little stretch and went to the bathroom.
I did my normal routine and then I went to take a bath. I came out with a towel wrapped around my waist. I was about to change when a thought came acroos my mind.
WAIT!!!
I ran to my room's door and locked it.
Phew!
No more Jiwoo barging into my room and catching me almost naked.
Then I peacefully changed into my outfit of the day. Let's do a fitcheck.
I know it's just a normal day. But I like to make it extra.
So I'm wearing a grey jeans, a black tee on top and white shoes. Not completely white. A shady white. Also, some accessories to light it up like ~dynamite~
I have my headphones hanging 'round my neck and I slung my bag over my shoulder.
Now, after looking at myself in the mirror for the last time, I got out of my room.
I entered the kitchen and saw everyone present in there.
Not that I care about anything. But something caught my eye.
Jiwoo's talking about things with Kevin. They're laughing, smiling at eachother.
EVEN JIWOO'S HAND IS ON HIS SHOULDER!
but why am I getting hyper?
There's something that's seriously wrong with me.
Ignoring my silly thoughts, I walked to them. Silly me, sat on Jiwoo's other side.
She didn't pay any attention to me. That's offensive. I was about to tease her but then I heard,
"Thanks Kevin! What you said last night, made my whole day 20 times better."
Jiwoo said happily. Kevin frowned playfully.
"So, since you remember that what I said made your day 20 times better. You should also remember that I told you to stop saying Thanks because besties can comfort eachother."
Kevin replied. To which Jiwoo chuckled.
"I'll keep that in mind, bestie!"
Bestie?! I'm intrigued.
I tapped on Jiwoo's shoulder. She looked at me.
"What are talking about?" I asked.
Jiwoo smiled.
Oh my god! That smile. Ufff!!!!
That smile would be the death of me.
I don't know what she's saying, I'm just lost in those eyes.
I would be happy to keep that smile on her face forever. How can anybody hate such an angel?
Yes! I tease her. But, not because I hate her. Because she's my friend.
AND! I shouldn't be having these kind of thoughts about my friend.
LEE MINHYUK! EFFING CONTROL YOUR BRAIN!
I was pulled back into my senses by Jiwoo as she shook me with force. And when I mean Jiwoo applied that force, it's no joke.
My shoulders are not on their right places right now. I'm sure about that.
"I told you something."
Shit.
"Oh! *yawns* I'm still sleepy. I couldn't catch up. Can you repeat?"
Phew!
Good one. Jiwoo glared at me for once but then she stared o speak again.
"So after doing the dishes, me and Kevin had a little conversation."
Jiwoo explained what happened last night. I can't help but my heart's swelling with proud at what Kevin said.
That's true you can never find a bestie like Kevin. He's like a brother you never knew you really needed.
Right now, Jiwoo needs a lot of encouragement and support and I'm happy that she's not letting the whole situation affect her that much.
Yes! It is too much. But she knows that she'll get through it. After all, she's not alone.
