Chapter 5 (<-- I think)
................
....................
What the hell is all this....
How did this all happen.....?
Polite....? What did Seungpyo mean....?
The thing that happened 4 years ago.... then does Seungpyo still....
“Miss Lee.”
........
................
“Yeah, Noah?”
“What is all this? Why is my oppa acting like that?”
Noah asked, large tears falling out of her large eyes...
Her voice a tone higher than normal...
“You see.. Noah... so....”
“How do you and oppa know each other....?”
Noah’s not asking as one of my students right now....
She asking me this question as a person who loves a man...
“............it’d be better to ask your oppa... I’d be better than hearing it from me... it’ll be a lot better hearing from your oppa.”
“....so... there is something..... seeing that you’re talking like this.....”
“.......it’s all past... let’s go in... You’ll catch a cold...
“Tell me... Tell me why my oppa’s acting like that... tell me.”
...Noah will find out soon enough......
But... I don’t think I can tell her.... I don’t think I can open my mouth.....
I still have to see her for a few weeks....
.....I still have to teach her for a few more weeks....
If I tell her, how am I supposed to look at her.....
“Tell me... I want to hear it from you........”
..........
...............
Noah’s voice was shaking.....
...........what am I supposed to do....
I want to cry too, Noah, I want to cry too...
The one who feels like crying is me... not you......
Because of Seungpyo.... because I made the mistake of letting go of Seungpyo.....
The one who wants to cry... the one who wants to just forget about life and cry is me....
“HOW DO YOU KNOW OPPA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
...............
....................
Noah yelled me.... a command more than a question.....
Does she like Seungpyo that much......
I guess......... I should tell her than......... I really have to now............
“...your oppa... no, Seungpyo... we used to go out when we were in high school...”
.........
..................
.......................
............
Noah just stared at me....
“The person named ‘Kyungwon’ oppa was talking about was you...... I didn’t want to believe it... I guess I knew all along...”
........
...............
Her oppa said that.... Seungpyo’s talked about me.........?
As Noah said this, she started running as fast as I could......
“NOAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
......the place Noah was running.......
.................
........................
Was the school... <_<....
I guess she’s getting to class..... <_<
I quickly ran towards her.....
Wearing heels.....
...............
....................
Panting, I tired to catch up to her,
But she was inside the classroom already....
Noah was inside her homeroom class,
So all I could do was just watch Noah through the window.....
....................Noah had her face buried into her desk....
And kept her head down like that....
I’M the one who wants to bury my face into my arms and cry!!! TT_TT ....
I can’t wait for her here....
I went into the teacher offices and I kept hearing Seungpyo’s voice...
...not again...........not again ............... not again .............
Like Noah, I buried my face into my arms....
(Actually, I kinda wanted to try it when I saw Noah do it..)
And time passed....
........
.................
....................
“Miss! Miss Lee!!!”
...........
“Miss Lee!!!!!!”
.......
“....uh, yeah?”
“Aren’t you getting to class...? You have 1 period to teach~”
I got up.................
“Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry...”
“..uh, you don’t have to be sorry towards me....”
I bowed to the teacher who had awakened me,
And headed towards my class...
........
I slammed the door open.......
And looked around, but Noah’s seat was empty....
.................
.........................
“....good morning...”
.............where did Noah go.........
.........................
“Why is this seat empty.”
“...Noah, she left.”
.........
...............one of Noah’s friends who were with Noah when Seungpyo came to this school said... smirking at me.
“...left? For where?”
“I don’t know. She just left.”
“You don’t know.”
“Of course I don’t.”
........
....................
.........................
“You know Noah’s home number right?”
“I doubt she’d have gone home.”
“What’s her cell phone number then.”
“.......I don’t know if she’ll answer her phone....”
....................breathe in..........
............................breathe out......
“DIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
.....
..........
I threw my phone at the girl, yelling....
For a second.. everyone just stared at me.....
“You want me to.... dial Noah’s number..... TT_TT...”
She asked, a different expression on her face than just a few seconds ago....
I nodded...
After pushing the number into my phone with a shaky finger,
She handed the phone to me carefully so that she wouldn’t have to touch my hand...
........…<_< .....
Dammit... I didn’t want them to be scared of me.. TT_TT ....
With the phone pressed to my ear, I walked out of the classroom...
The phone kept ringing...
+RING RINNG RINNNG RINNNNG RINNNNNG+
So you’re not going to answer....
The principal passed me with the phone to my ear...
“Hello~”
“.............”
...the phones started ringing again....
It rang 10 times.... but no one answered....
Should I send a text message..... and I was about to hang up when.......
..........when I heard a guy’s voice answer the phone.
“Hello.........”
....it was a playful, and sexy voice at the same time....
Is this her brother...?
“Hello...?”
“...who is this?”
“......I’m.. Noah’s teacher... is Noah there.....?”
“Did something happen at school?”
“...yes, something happened... she left school.....”
“....she left..............?”
“Yes, are you her oppa...? Is Noah at home?”
“Oh.... I’m not her brother... I’m just an oppa....”
.........
.................
..................
Why the hell is this voice so familiar... <_<...
It’s a voice..... that I don’t think I’ll ever be able to forget....
“....Kim Seungpyo......? Am I right?”
“This is Seungpyo.... how’d you....”
“.........it’s Kyungwon.........”
“...................huh.......???”
“Your girlfriend left!! She left school!!! It’s because of you!!!!!!!!”
......
.............wait.. what the hell am I saying....
Why am I yelling at Seungpyo....
Am I yelling because I’m jealous of Noah....?
Because he answered Noah’s cell phone...
“........are you at school.........”
“YEAH!”
“Noah left.....??”
“Well that’s what I said!!!!”
“........why are you yelling....?”
“.............you don’t know where she is?”
“I’m at school too.”
“Okay.. forget it....”
“.........Kyungwon!”
“...yeah.”
“...come out... let’s meet...”
".............."
.........I’m selfish........
For a second, my heart beat quickened.....
Lee Kyungwon... stop it....
“...why should I meet you? I have to go look for Noah.”
“It’s abuot Noah and I have a lot of things to say to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
.........
...............Seungpyo just yelled........
I keep remembering scary Seungpyo from earlier this morning....
........................................................
“..........okay... let’s meet.........”
.........
................and we hung up.....
I turned my head to the side and when I did I jumped..
Sticking closed to the wall, trying to hear my conversation where the girls....
.........
.................................
“...I’m going to go out because of Noah... I’ll be right back... Just stay here....”
“Yes ma’am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Back then, I was happy when my teacher left for important business....
As I left the school, I asked myself again...
And again after that....
Kyungwon.... are you meeting Seungpyo because of Noah....? Right...? You’re meeting him because of Noah.....
.....................no you’re not.....
Lee Kyungwon....... you’re so selfish.......
Chapter 6
I was inside the cafe, waiting for Seungpyo.
‘Cello’ why here of all places? What was Seungpyo thinking when he wanted to meet here?
Why would he want to meet me at the same exact place I broke up with him 4 years ago.
...............why am I like this after 4 years....
.......I’m starting to hate Lee Kyungwon....
......
......ㅇ_ㅇ.....
Right then...
I heard loud footsteps outside loud enough to shake the cafe....
And the footsteps stopped in front of the entrance to the cafe.
For just a second, it was silent,
And the door opened with a small ring.
It was Seungpyo....
His black hair wet from the rain...
With large black eyes, Seungpyo looked around the cafe.
And when he spotted me, Seungpyo just stared at me for a while...
I was starting to get a little embarrassed.
“...uh, you’re here... hi....”
I awkwardly shook my hand.
And Seungpyo sat down across from me.
And answered with a “Yeah, hi.”
For a second, we were just looking at the table.
No one wanted to open their mouths first.
“What do you want?”
I asked quietly...
Seungpyo answered with a clear voice..
“Two lemonades!!!!’
.........
...................
He still remembers... that I liked lemonade........
....
Seungpyo was rubbing his chin with his elbow on the table...
We were silent....
“...you know... Noah...”
I said.
And with Noah’s name.. Seungpyo slightly frowned....
“Yeah?”
“Noah, left school... I told her... I’m sorry...”
“....told her what...”
“...us.......”
.........
...........
While we were just silent,
The lemonade came out...
“Us..”
“That we used to go out, you told her that..”
.......
How can he say it as if it’s not big deal ... <_<....
“Yeah that. I told her.. I think she wasn’t expecting me to actually tell her straight forwards... What do we do.”
“We can’t do anything about it.. It’s already past.”
"................you’re right... it is.....”
"...................."
And like that... our 3rd wave of silence hit us.....
....................
Seungpyo rested his black eyes somewhere inside the cafe...
I don’t know what it was...
“Noah’s in her 3rd year now. She’ll be going to college next year.... The events that have happened, might impact her grades... and if they drop it won’t be good for her transcripts.
I said bringing Noah up once again....
“I’ll catch her...”
“....huh.....?”
“I’ll catch her if she falls..... don’t worry...”
......you do that Kim Seungpyo.... catch her... she’ll need you to do it for her.....
“Hahaha~~ Tch! You’ve evolved a lot from your high school days~”
................
...................it’s hard laughing when you don’t mean it....
“All thanks to someone......”
What’s that mean...?
Seungpyo muttered something... it was soft, but I heart him....
....someone.....?
With a cold voice, I looked up at Seungpyo...
“Be sure to catch her... I know you’ll be able to. She’s smart, and if you help her a little then she’ll get a lot better. I’m asking you as her teacher. You can do that right?”
“Isn’t it hard talking without taking a breath of air?? O_O...”
...…<_< .... he knows how to make someone feel stupid doesn’t he.....
“Come on! Let’s get a little more serious here! I skipped my class to meet you. And if you talk like that, the my skipping class becomes a waste!!”
.....what the... Lee Kyungwon... what you just said is more childish.... TT_TT .....
“Hey, mine becomes more of a waste. I skipped an important lecture to get here... TT_TT ...”
I cannot have a serious conversation with this guy......
He’s the same as 4 years ago!! TT_TT!!!
Next to Noah I thought he was all grownup....
But with me, he’s the same as before!! TT_TT!!! (AHEM.. i'll take out the 'but with me' part .. <_<..)
........but... this might be the thing I longed for.....
“Fine, yours and mine were both a hella big waste. Let’s just stop now.”
“What kind of grown woman says ‘hella’?! >_< !!”
“What kind of grown man is so childish?? <_<...”
“I am not!!”
“Are too.”
“Stop it!! TT_TT!!”
+RING RIIIIIIIING RIIIIIIIIINGGG+
While Seungpyo was talking, my cell phone rang..
It was Jungmin......
I flipped open my phone...
“HELLO ^0^!!!”
“It’s me, where are you?”
“Honey~ I’m outside right now~~ ^0^”
“Outside? Are you meeting someone?”
Jungmin asked, his voice darkening.
“Oh~ I’m going to go back don’t worry. You’re picking me up today right?”
“What’s happened to you all of a sudden.”
“What are you talking about?”
“...you’re never this perky....”
“Oh Honey~ What are you talking about~ You’re coming right?”
“Yeah... I’m go.. did something happen today?”
“...no~ nothing happened! ^0^, you’re coming, you promised! I’ll talk to you later~ I love you!”
“........uh okay......”
“Muah!!!”
+CLICK+
.............
..........
.................Lee Kyungwon..
I never would have guessed you’d ever get so greasy....
.............
It’s because of Seungpyo...
This way, we’ll go back our places.. where we belong....
With a straw in his mouth, Seungpyo looked at me...
.....I don’t see a trace of a smile on his face.
It’s not an angry expression..... Lee Kyungwon... what did you expect... I started getting a little sad.
“Sorry~ I sounded really gross huh? ^0^, you should do it with Noah sometime ^_^.”
".............."
............Seungpyo was silent..
And I felt myself become embarrassed....
“Hey, hey, is it THAT gross?? Wasn’t I cute? EHEHEHHE”
“....you.... love him...?”
..........
...................
........................
“......yeah.. I love him.....”
"............."
“........hey, what’s wrong with you all of a sudden.....”
“You guy have been going out for 4 years ^_^.”
“.......yeah 4 years... How long have you and Noah been together?”
“4 long years, I’ll give you credit for that~ Damn, 4 years...”
“How long have you and Noah been together?”
“...not that long.”
“Those are the good days~~”
“..............what do you like about him....? There must be something you liked about him if you’ve been with him for 4 years.....”
..........
...................
.....................
The person I love... the person I long for....
The person I want...
Is the person in front of me... forcing a smile..... it’s you Kim Seungpyo....
..........................
.................................I can’t tell him... Seungpyo... I can’t tell him.....
I can’t cause pain to more people than I already have....
“What I like about him~~!! My Jungmin, uh~~~”
...ㅇ_ㅇ..hmmm..ㅇ_ㅇ......"
<_<.. what do I do... there’s nothing for me to say.....
OH! RIGHT!
“Well you see! There was this time when I was getting picked on by these gangster people! And you know what he did? He just continued to get him, and he save me!! ^0^... He’s that kind of person~ He even brought me home even though it must’ve hurt~~ ^0^!! The next day, when I brought it up, he acted as if he didn’t know anything at all!! Isn’t my Jungmin amazing??! ^0^!!”
.........
..............
...................for a second... Seungpyo’s face expression turned cold....
...........I’m seen many different faces.... His angry face, his sad face, I’m seen a lot...
But it’s my first time seeing his face so cold..... it’s my first time...
....
“...you’re talking about 4 years ago...”
Seungpyo spat out...
How did he know? Were there rumors going around?
“Yeah, in high school~~ How’d you know? Were you the gangter?!?!/ HAHAHAHAHAH!! >_<!!!”
"..................................”
“I was just kidding, what’s wrong.”
“What if... the person who saved you wasn’t him.... what if it was another stupid bastard.... then you might have fallen in love with that bastard.....”
“No~ ^_^Jungmin saved me because it was Jungmin... There wasn’t anyone else who’d want to save me anyways~~!!”
“You must be happy you can just live inside the box~~”
.........
................Seungpyo said his voice sarcastic....
His cold face, hurt me....
“Well yeah! What’s good about thinking complex things?!”
“....what if I told you it was m-”
“Excuse me~ Can I take a picture?? ^0^.”
Seungpyo was in the middle of saying something,
When a waitress walked up to us with a polaroid camera....
Seungpyo stopped what he was saying and closed him mouth....
“What picture?”
“Our cafe is have a little couple board~ We take pictures of couples and we’re going to put them up~ We’ll give you a shot also~ You guys make an adorable couple~”
“...uh... we... we’re not going out... we’re just friends....”
The waitress looked at us....
“But, can’t I still take a picture? You just look so good together....”
When I glanced over at Seungpyo....
He still had the icy expression on his face and was looking out the window.
“That’s fine ^0^, make it good~ Seungpyo, let’s take a picture together!”
I got up from my seat and sat on the seat next to Seungpyo....
I slung one arm around Seungpyo and the other into a ‘V’
Grinning brightly I gave permission for her to take a picture of us.
..................
She thanked us and took two pictures.
The waitress handled one photo to me and took the other one with her....
When the photo came out,
I saw myself grinning like a nerd....
And Seungpyo’s face not even looking at the camera with the cold expression still on his face....
If you looked at it...
You’d have thought I was a crazy nagging fan girl and Seungpyo was the annoyed celebrity....
“Seungpyo, look at this~ We came out good huh? Seungpyo, you have a killer profile~ Look at me! I look pretty huh? ^0^!!”
..............
Wordlessly, Seungpyo snatched the picture from me hand....
“I’m going to keep this....”
“...uh.... s-sure.... you can have it....”
...........
.....................
............................
And once again..... silence...........
Chapter 7
……
“Do you want to give Noah a call..??”
...........
...........
“No…”
“….uh… okay… <_<…”
……………..
“Hey! What’s up, talk a little will you?! Do you have someplace to go??”
“No…..”
Seungpyo continued to just stare at the picture… he didn’t even bother looking up at me to answer.
I guess… he doesn’t like being around me….
Is he worried about Noah… yeah, that’s probably right…
With his chin rested on his arm, he continued to just stare at the picture..
And then he slowly looked up…
Then he said to me…
“….do you know the story about the little mermaid…?”
The little mermaid…? What’s that got to do with anything?
“Oh course I know~ What’s the littler mermaid got to do with anything? Oh do you want to see the movie of something? Tch ^_^you‘re the same as before~ ^0^”
“…..what do you mean ….. how am I the same….”
“…..? You…?”
“..how am I the same as before…?”
“Well, you still act like a country boy playing in the mountains.. Clear and happy, like a little kid.”
“……………….”
Seungpyo let out a sad grin….
“…what? What’s wrong with you all of a sudden.”
“Let’s go.”
“Are you mad that I compared you with a country boy?!”
….Seungpyo got up from his seat and walked to the counter by himself…
…is being compared to a country boy a bad thing?
I wouldn’t mind if I was called a country girl….
…awkwardly, the two of us left the café…
The rain outside was falling heavily, still.
Seungpyo silently handed his black umbrella to me…
“Why are you giving me your umbrella? It’s yours!”
“No, you take it.”
“But you’ll get wet!”
“I need to meet someone around here.. You can use it…”
“I’m fine ^0^, I’m going to ride the bus, so I’ll be fine…”
ㅇ_ㅇ..........ㅇ_ㅇ....
For a second, Seungpyo looked at me with angry eyes…
“I’m not a damn kid!!”
“…wh- what are you talking about.. I was just tell you to take the umbrella and not get wet… Hey, why the hell are you acting so pissy?! Are you pissed I told Noah?! That’s it, huh?!?!”
"..................are you acting like you don’t know… or are you really stupid….”
“What?”
“..I’m going… go back to school.. And don’t skip…”
…Seungpyo slowly walked into the rain…
As I watched him get slowly smaller and smaller…
I wanted to call him name….
No, I wanted to run over to him and tell him…
But I just covered my face with the umbrella and I just looked after him…
…crying like a dummy until I couldn’t see him anymore….
What do I do…. Really… What do I do?
I like Seungpyo…. A lot…. What do I do… Jungmin… what do I do…..
….
I like Seungpyo enough to go crazy……
I like Seungpyo enough to cry….. Enough for it to hurt…. What do I do…
The tears I held back started to cascade down my cheeks…
….and I stood there a few hours… just crying…..
.............
...................
...............................
....................................
I went home…
And I cried because it hurt.. Because I was sad…
Because I missed him… and back to because it hurt…
And I had a dream…
……Seungpyo was in my dream…
I was with Jungmin… and behind us was Seungpyo…
Seungpyo was staring at us.. Seungpyo was crying….
And on Seungpyo’s face was a multiple amount of scratches…
Seungpyo opens his mouth and he quietly says…
“…………are you acting like you don‘t know…. Or are you stupid….”
…..those words kept stirring up emotions inside me….
...........
..............
....................
=RING RIIING RIIIIIIINNNNNNG!!+
“…hello…?”
“Miss Lee…?”
“Oh yes?”
“It’s already 10 o’ clock.. What are you doing at home, you should be at school…”
“….I’m sorry… I’m not feeling well today… I’m sorry.. Tomorrow… I’ll be there…”
“Oh! I’m sorry, is it the flu?”
“Yeah… I think it is…. I’m sorry I couldn’t go..”
“There’s nothing you should be sorry about~ Get a lot of rest…”
“Thank you……..”
.......
....................
It’s 10 already….??
My head hurts….
There was a text message on my phone…
“Answer the phone….”
It’s Jungmin….
Am I supposed to call him…?
I exhaustedly punched in a number…
“HELLO!
“Yehwon, it’s me Kyungwon.”
“Huh? Kyungwon~ Why didn’t you answer?!”
“You called….?”
“Yeah! Let’s go drinking today!”
“..you and me?”
“Yeah yeah! Eunsung when on a MT trip today!! It’s our only chance, let’s go! ^0^ !!!”
(Eunsung and Yehwon go to different colleges.)
“..okay, let’s go drinking…”
“What wrong with your voice? Are you sick? Are you at school?”
“No, I’m not sick.. I just woke up.. That’s why…”
“You didn’t go to school? O_O …?”
“Yeah, I didn’t have to go today.”
“Really?! Come over to my house then!! We’ll hang out at my house and then go drinking!”
… <_<… when are you going to grow up…
“Okay, okay, then let’s go that.. Hold on, I’ll be there soon.”
“Okay! I’m so excited!! Hurry okay?!?!?!”
“…..okay…………”
.......
................
Chapter 8
+DING DONG+
Yehwon poked her head out of the small crack she’d opened..
“Kyungwon!!!!!!”
“…what happened to you.. <_<..”
“I’m just so happy!! HEHEEH!! Do you know this is the first time in a while I’ve been able to go out at night?”
“You’re going to stay out all night?”
“Oh course!”
“What are you going to do if Eunsung finds out … <_<…”
“Don’t say something so unlucky.. I’ll die if he catches me…”
“…you probably would.. +COUGH COUGH+!!”
“What’s wrong? Are you sick???”
“No, I had something phlegm in my throat..”
“Spit it out outside.”
“+KWAK!!!+ There! Happy?!”
“Ew, nasty!”
“Move you batch.”
I pushed past Yehwon and walked into their house…
It’s my 2nd time in here..
It’s still clean…
..........
“Yehwon?”
“YEAH?!”
Yehwon yelled from the kitchen.
“..hey, why do you guys have two blankets?”
“….we use separate blankets.”
“Why?”
“I put the bunny on the bed and it peed… That’s why.. Eunsung said he’s not as dirty as I am….”
…… <_<…
“..that sounds like something he’d say.”
That’s right…
The rabbits Yehwon bought 4 years ago…
Haven’t died and they’re still alive….
When I look at the rabbits as big as my forearm hopping around the whole place, I think I can understand what Eunsung has to go through.
..........
“Come to the living room~”
….she’s 22-years-old… not even married… has no money… but…
She has a TV, VCR/DVD player, Stereo, sofas not excluding a loveseat, bed, a coffee table, with a dinner table…
How lucky….
And like that,
We were able to catch up on things we haven’t been able to talk about…
My head got a lot clearer and I started to feel better…
The things that Yehwon talked about is,
How she hated the 1st years who kept chasing at her boyfriend….
She made fun of them too..
-_-...
The things I talking about are the things that happened at school…
……we should be heading out now….
……I’m going to go and drink like crazy….
Yehwon went into her room and took out clothes that she had obviously hidden from Eunsung….
The sun has started setting…
….the sky’s getting dimmer and darker…
“We’re going to a club!! ^0^!!!”
“What about Eunsung…”
“It’s not like I’m going to m- meet some guys! To drink! And dance!”
“Why are you stuttering??”
“Because I had a lot of spit in my mouth!”
“Right.. I believe you~~”
What a cutie… <_<.. She’s going to get caught being that stupid….
There are at least 10 guys that know Ji Eunsung in every nightclub around this area…
You stupid girl <_<..
But still, Yehwon skipped out of the house.
I was waiting for Yehwon at the front door when my phone rang.
………it was ……… Jungmin…
I should answer…
“Hello?”
“Where the hell are you?!”
“….Yehwon’s house…”
“What are you doing, what are you doing huh!?!?!?”
“…what are you taking about…”
“You don’t call, you don’t answer! What’s with you these days…”
“I should be asking YOU that… Yesterday was the only day I didn’t call you…”
“Only day…? Only day you didn’t call me!?”
“I was sick!!”
“……….yeah..? Where were you sick then….”
“Forget it… I’m fine now.. I’m not in the mood, I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“I’ll go to Yehwon’s.”
“I want to hang out with Yehwon.. Just the two of us…”
“You two? There’s only 2 of you?”
“You… you thought that we’d be paired with Ji Eunsung and Kim Seungpyo!??!?!??!?”
".................."
Yehwon ran towards me surprised…
“What’s wrong, who is it..?”
“It’s nothing.. Jungmin, I’m hanging up….”
“…Lee Kyungwon….”
“What.”
“What’s … wrong with you? Just a few days ago you wanted me to pick you up… you told me loved me… When I went to pick you up, you weren’t even there… you get mad… it’s because of that Kim Seungpyo bastard isn’t it…”
“STOP IT!! Dammit! I’m hanging up~~!!!”
+CLICK+
I hung up on him… I don’t know why I’m mad at him.. It should be him who hung up on me…. I can’t stand myself…
My head hurts….
……..Lee Kyungwon.. You’ve gone crazy…..
“Hey.. What’s wrong… Why are you telling… and why didn’t Seungpyo’s name come up?”
“…I haven’t called recently, and I’m acted b***hy towards him.. He just jumped to conclusions…”
Sorry Yehwon.. I can’t tell you… I’m sorry… really, I am…”
“…are you okay?”
“Of course I am! Do you know who I am? I’m Lee Kyungwon!! Let’s go! Let’s go! We’ll go to a night club, the a bar!! Let’s get wasted today!!!”
“ALRIGHT!!!!! >0<!!”
…..+SIGH+….. Han Yehwon… -_-
Chapter 9
The place we arrived at….
Was a night club in the very center of the city.. The one rumored to have a lot of good looking people… even the named just screamed out at you..
+++Queen+++
The entrance was pretty quiet, it was 10 at night…
We walked up to the 2nd floor…
The stage on the first floor had blinking lights and young people moving their butts around and around…
When I turned around, I spotted a waiter looking at me and Yehwon…
…..I don’t know if he was looking at us because he wanted to know if we were booking….
Yehwon was shaking her butt so much it looked like she was shaking her nostrils also.
“Ow~~! It’s too loud!!!”
“It’s been forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s been forever since I’ve been so free!!! TT_TT!!!”
“Will you get rid of that face? You look like you came to a club for the first time .. <_<.”
“TT_TT Kyungwon… I’m free….. TT_TT ….. I’m free now!!”
“Just don’t go to the middle of the floor, if one of Eunsung’s buddies see you then they’ll drag you out you know.”
“Don’t worry! Eunsung’s buddies are busy in Suwon!! ^0^”
“Whatever… you just keep thinking like that… you’ll get caught sooner or later..”
..........

................
................
……………..30 minutes passed…
In front of Yehwon and me, a multiple amount of bottles were placed down by waiters….
But Yehwon and I are still fine so far.
No one’s come over for a booking..
I guess I was just hallucinating or something…
“Let’s go!! Kyungwon, let’s go dance! Huh!?! Huh!?”
“No~~ thank you.. I’m going to just stay here….”
“Let’s go~ Let’s go!”
Yehwon gave me a puppy face and shook my arm..
I might pass out from a headache if I dance outside.. TT_TT…
“…Huh, I got a call…….”
“…..is it Eunsung….?”
“I don’t know. I’ve never seen this number before.. I wonder who it is…”
“Hey! Becareful, it might be Eunsung!”
“Hello????”
Not paying attention to my warning, that dim-witted girl answered her found… and as I looked at her face, I could see it was getting more panicky…
Haha, I told you to be careful…..
“…..me?? I’m at home!! ^0^, huh? Music? Uh, I have the stereo on! …………….huh…. Huh…………? Eunsung.. TT_TT … I’m sorry….”
Yup……
It’s 2005 right now.. The cell phones had evolved so that when you answered your location would appear also….
….Han Yehwon…. That girl was….. Slow … -_-
For a long time, I could hear Eunsung yelling at Yehwon over the phone…
-_-..........
Yehwon just listened to him yelling….
And she FINALLY decided to talk.
“…so..? You’re going to come here?? HAHA! Like you can!!! You can’t! You know why? Because you’re in Kangwondo, stuck in traffic!!! I dare you to come! I dare you!!! >_< !!”
….I think she’s drunk….
If she wasn’t.. she wouldn’t because to talk crazy talk like she is right now…
“Nyah!! Nyah!! Nyah!! I dare you to come!! When you get here tomorrow~ I’m going to be gone!! You know why? Because I’ll be at Kyungwon’s!! You don’t know where Kyungwon lives!!! Hahaha! Do you? Do you? BWAHAAH!! You like cursing at your girlfriend?! You like it, huh?! Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!!! What are you going to do about it?! Kangwondo boy~~!! I’m hanging up!! >_< !!”
…………<_< …………. <_<……………. <_<
When I looked up at Yehwon from my drinking, she was busy cackling to herself and taking the battery out of her phone…
“Han Yehwon..”
“Yeah?”
“You’re crazy aren’t you?”
“No~~ ^0^”
“No.. no, you ARE.. You’re crazy….”
“I said I’m not!! I’m a free person today!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
As she finished talking, Yehwon sped.. I mean SPED towards the dance stage on the 1st floor..
When I chased after her,
She was on the stage….
Moving everything she had on her body…..
Yehwon was shaking her butt because of two reasons the way I see it..
1) She’s scared of tomorrow..
2) She’s half crazy…..
No, but the thing I’m pissed about is….
Why my house?!???!?!!??!!?!?! TT_TT
Chapter 10
-_-..
If Ji Eunsung finds out where I live… He’ll barge in..
Bi+ch at me taking Yehwon out…
And then drag Yehwon out…. <_<..
It’d be better for me to go to mom’s house…..
Leaving Yehwon to dance her butt off,
I came back upstairs to our table and started drinking….
…..10 minutes later….
Yehwon sped like crazy towards us again….
................
I want to emphasize the word CRAZY….
“Hey! Hey! Kyungwon! Let’s go!”
“…why?”
“His buddies!!!”
“Buddies? Who’s?”
“Ji Eunsung knows where I am right now! He’s probably called him buddies to find me!! If I get caught, I die!! Let’s go! Let’s go!”
“.. -_- why do you live like this… no wait, why do I live like this, because of this girl I befriended I can’t even play as much as I want..”
As soon as I finished talking, Yehwon pulled on my wrist….
(Her arm strength was so strong… -_-… in high school.. She got 2nd in the whole school for amr wrestleing.)
..........
..................
.......................
“..you can let go now. My wrist hurts !!!”
We left the club, and we were in an alley.
“..it’s fine, we’re safe now…”
“You said you were a free person!! I thought you said you were fearless! Well, if you’re fearless and if you’re a free person, why the hell are you running?!”
“…TT_TT I’m scared …… TT_TT …”
Yehwon said, looking at me with a red face…
.....
..........
The time was a little over 11.
“Where are we supposed to go then?”
“Let’s go to a bar! There’s a small place I know where not a lot of people go.”
“………………….”
“Please~~~ Kyungwon~~~~~”
“…….dammit..”
And we left the club
And she really brought me to a small bar… a really quiet bar….
There weren’t any other customers besides me and Yehwon..
Yehwon, who already had 5 bottles in her stomach, Was a little drunk already…..
……….my face was getting a little red also….
I can’t drink anymore…
If I do, I don’t know what I’ll tell Yehwon…
….BUT~~~~~ Yehwon kept passing bottles to me….
“Hey~~ Drink!!!!”
“No, I’m fine. No more for me.
“It’s my last wish.. TT_TT …… it’s my last wish, please!!”
“Are you going off to die?”
“….I might tomorrow… I really might die.. TT_TT….”
“…I think running away is the best.”
“I can’t even go where I want anymore! TT_TT! What is this! Last time, the girls from middle school and I got a get together at a bar! Then all of a sudden this huge guy came and dragged me out!! 4 times!!!!”
“Was it Eunsung’s friend?”
“I don’t know! He said that he was Eunsung’s junior in high school.. TT_TT … You know how embarrassing it is?! I mean, it’s like having paparazzi stalkers follow you everywhere!!! They always find me… somehow!!!! Is that all they do?! Look for their senior’s girlfriend!!! If they were good looking, I wouldn’t say anything.. But he looked like a damn fish, and they still follow me!! It’s embarrassing!! It hurts me!! TT_TT!!!”
“…….uh….. Uh……….. Uh………. Okay…?”
“I mean!!! He was a year younger than me!! But he looked at LEAST 10 years older than me!! You know what he says after finding me?!? He says, ‘Mrs. Ji!!! Let’s go!” TT_TT!! I hate that stupid fish guy!!”
“TT_TT …”
“MRS. JI!! LET’S GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
<_<
A loud voice yelled, loud enough to break down the bar…
The voice sounded annoyed, and as if they were trying to sound like a professional bodyguard…
...…-_-......
Standing behind Yehwon was ‘the fish guy’
He looked to be 190 cm, and he looked really healthy.
Yehwon was wailing…
“Yehwon, I think it’s Eunsung’s junior.”
“TT_TT, Hi, so we meet again.. TT_TT ….”
Unlike a few minutes ago when she was professing her hatred towards the fish-guy, she bowed politely to him..
His face was red…
I could see his bottom lip trembling..
“The damn fish greets you hello!!!!”
“TT_TT, you’re so funny.. TT_TT….”
………..
“The damn fish says, ‘Mrs. Ji, let’s go. <_<”
The fish muttered quietly…
It sounded something like a threat….
“Yes… yes of course… TT_TT.. I was just getting up… Kyun- Kyungwon, let’s go together…”
She looked at me with shiny eyes…
They looked like bunny eyes….
I’m sorry … my friend…
However…..
I’m scared of the fish-guy also….
“I’m going to stay a little longer… You go ahead…”
“…..Kyungwon.. Let’s go… let’s go… TT_TT …”
Yehwon was practically begging…
But I looked someplace else…..
I’m scared of the fish guy also.. TT_TT..
And like that, Yehwon,
Dissapeared like the wind… quietly~~~
Followed by the fish-guy…..
-_-.........
