"Sakura. That doesn't mean-"
"It's fineeee. I didn't get rejected or anything, did I? I don't think it's love at first sight anyway. So thinking about it this way, If I become friends with him, I have a chance on getting a boyfriend who loves me. He must have hot friends." She laughed. She's really one of a kind. Laughing when something didn't go her way. I hugged her. "What's wrong, Yuna-chan?"
"It's nothing". I met her for only two days and I already see her as my best friend. I don't know how but it just clicked between us though we don't have much in common.
"Yuna-chaaan. It's been a minute and you're still hugging me. He must be waiting for us outside. We have to goooo"
"Why are we even going?"
"So that the both of you bond with each other and I become friends with him. We don't have any other classes for today so we are going"
"I don't want a relationship with him. You go alone. Tell him that I have a head ache or something"
"No! You're coming!" she dragged me away.
"Nonono- Sakura please. Noooo-" He was leaning against a tree outside, looking into his phone, when all the girls exiting the building were looking at him, admiring his face and body. "Why the fuck are you so strong? Let's do this some other time. Not today, Sakura, pleaseee." He looked up at us. Fuck.
"Why? You want to look good for him?" she smirked, still dragging me with my wrist, so that I don't run away. She's really evil. I can't do anything anymore. I walked with her to him, looking at a dog nearby, as if it was even more interesting than him. As we got close to him, I remembered the kiss and my face flushed tomato red. I covered my face by looking down, so that the both of them won't notice it.
"Where are we going?" she smiled up at him.
"Your decision." He replied, looking back into his phone. So what now? Was he seriously ignoring me? Hah. Thank god.
"Yuna-chan. Where do you wanna go?"
"Anywhere's fine" I rolled my eyes at her attempt to make me talk.
"Huh- If the both of you aren't interested in going- then I'll be leav-"
"Let's go to the mall near the beach" I interrupted, before Sakura could make any decision.
"Okay! Come on" She dragged me, with Jinyoung still into his phone. "Ah Jinyoung. Why don't you bring your friend or something? Won't it be lonely for you?" She's really quick with this. Wow.
"He should be waiting outside our university." He said looking up, putting his phone into his pocket. My face was still hot and red. I really can't believe I'm going to be spending the day with him after what he has done. Sakura switched places with me, when she was walking in the middle.
"What are you even doing?" I whispered to her with a sad pout. She silently chuckled at my reaction.
"You're red, Yuna-chan" she half-yelled. Great. Now he'll know the reason behind it. She's really embarrassing me. Not that I care. I wish Jun was here. He'll at least save me from this situation.
We reached the gate when there was a okayish-looking guy standing there.
"My life is doomed." She groaned. "I really wanted a guy as hot as Jinyoung." She murmured in my ear.
"Meet my step-brother, Kiu" Jinyoung announced.
"Hello" Sakura waved. We introduced ourselves and started out by reaching the train station. The train was crowded and there were only two seats left. Jinyoung and Kiu let us sit there. Fifteen minutes later, Sakura excused herself and asked Jinyoung to sit there, saying that her legs hurt from sitting. Ahh Sakuraaaaaa.
"It's fine"
"No no. Please sit. I'll be fine."
"What about meeee?" Kiu groaned. "My legs hurt. I'll sit." He was about to sit when, Jinyoung came and sat beside me
"I'll sit. My legs hurt too." Our legs pressing against each other, giving me shivers. He started to type something on his phone. Does he really hate me now?
"Kiu. You can sit- I'm alright." I was about to get up, when Jinyoung placed his hand on my thigh, on my knee-leveled black skirt and pressed it down. I sat down automatically.
"Don't."
"Huh?"
"I said sit here. You don't have to be so uncomfortable around me." he said, looking up at me into my eyes, for the first time since class ended. I turned red and looked away immediately.
He took his hand off me and started to type once again. I relaxed myself a few minutes later. Sakura and Kiu noticed the tension between us. Both of them started to talk about random stuff while me and Jinyoung stayed silent all the while. Sakura really attracts people. It's really something I have to learn from her.
The train stopped at the station and we got off. What was with the sudden change of attitude? Both Sakura and Kiu ignored us and started talking, walking awfully fast. I couldn't really keep up with them. I knew Sakura didn't walk fast on purpose. She wouldn't do that, since she noticed that something was wrong between us. Jinyoung put down his phone into his pocket, grabbed my wrist and started to walk the other direction away from them.
"Wait- What are you-"
"You really need to learn when to shut up". Why was he angry with me in the first place? He was the one who kissed me. He was the one who did everything wrong from the start and he treats me this way.
He brought me to an isolated corner and embraced me into a tight hug, covering his face with my neck. He let out a deep breathe.
"Yuna". My heart started to beat fast. His hug was warm and comforting. "Yunaa-".
"Y-Y-yes" I stuttered.
He hugged me more tight. All I could smell was his sweet cologne. "I want you". What was with him acting so cold a minute ago and now he is being vulnerable around me?
"Sakura and Kiu must be searching for us. We have to go."
"We have time"
"No we don't. If you're not gonna act normal around me. Then, I won't be seeing you anymore." I stated.
"Then is it alright if I force you every time I see you?"
"I'll file a case on you stating that you are using sexual abuse, if you lay a finger on me"
"Seriously?"
"Yes."
"Then I desire to fuck you even more now"
"I'm really sick of you". I pushed him off me.
He chuckled. "That's something I don't care about". I couldn't think of a comeback.
His phone started to ring.
"Yeah?" he said on the phone. "You guys literally ran off. Yeah. I'm with her" he winked at me. I scoffed and turned away. "We'll meet there." He cut the call.
"Let's see here. My father owns a company. Even if you file a case against me, it would be of no use. So do what you can." He said.
"So you're gonna buy me with your rich-ass money?" I crossed my arms.
"Haven't thought about it yet" he adjusted his messy black hair.
"Jesus Christ" I turned around about to walk somewhere. But where? I stopped. "Where are we supposed to meet them?" I asked him, making him smile.
"Follow me darling", he walked off.
"Screw you" I muttered under my breathe.
"I heard that, darling" he said without turning back. I felt like a literal mess because of him. I came here to study and that's what I'm going to do. I'm going only because of Sakura wants me to. If he is going to torture me, well then, I have no other choice than to torture him back. We met up with Kiu and Sakura and entered the mall at 6 pm.
"Jinyoung" I called him. "Can we talk?" making sure Sakura and Kiu hears it.
"Yeah sure." He said with a serious face. What the fuck is with him? "We'll be back. We'll meet up at 9 outside." He told them. He dragged me to a café and we sat there.
"What?" he asked.
"Nothing."
"Seriously?" he raised his eyebrow.
"Mhm." I nodded.
"I don't know what you are planning but it really pisses me off and I want to know what it is. I know you have something to say to me. So just say it."
I let out a huge sigh. "I really don't understand what the fuck is wrong with you and your mood. If you want me, then I'm sorry I'm rejecting you. I came here to study and that's what I'm going to do." I told him.
"Girl, you really are something else. First of all, I feel like flirting with you when I want to. I'll say it-"
"Excuse me- your orders?" a girl interrupted.
"Ah- I'll have coke. You?" he asked me.
"I'll have the same"
"We'll have two." She flirtatiously smiled at Jinyoung and left. She really has no idea, does she?
"Forget about it." He muttered, placing his forehead in his hands. He muttered, placing his forehead in his hands.
"What do you mean forget about it?"
"Just forget it. I don't feel like talking anymore. I'm sorry." He doesn't feel like talking in just a moment?
"You're kidding" I shook my head. I got up and went into the girls' restroom. Was I being too persistent? I haven't even showed him the real 'me' and he says he wants me. I seriously don't know anymore. I want to know what's with him but at the same time I just want to give up and forget I even met him.
I went back and sat opposite to him. He was sitting there with the drinks on the table, and hadn't even taken a sip of it. I finished my drink while he sat there, distracted by a little baby crying in the table near us.
"Come with me" I told him, a few minutes later. I paid for the drinks even though he insisted that he do it. I couldn't even understand what was going on in neither my head nor his head. I pulled him up and I made him walk, behind me, leaving his coke behind. I led him outside the mall and walked to the backside near a fountain, sitting in a small bench placed near it.
"My head hurts", I muttered.
"I'll go buy you pills." He sighed, getting up. "If it hurts even more, I'll drop you off at your room". He was about to leave, when I held onto his hand.
"Do-"
"Do?"
"Don't go. I can- manage." He sat beside me.
"Sure?". I nodded silently, looking down at the stony floor.
"Why did you make me come here?"
"I don't know. I'm an idiot."
He chuckled.
"Don't laugh. I'm not really one."
"You are, to be honest. You literally have no idea."
"What do you mean?" I looked at him.
"Jun likes you, darling."
"No he doesn't" I turned red because of the nickname he gave me.
"He does." He smiled.
"How can you assume something which isn't true?"
"Well it is true and it's not an assumption".
"Whatever." I looked at the small pink lilies floating on the side of the fountain. A cool breeze hit my face.
"I feel like sleeping here. And dying here. When I die, I want different colors of tulips on my grave." I muttered.
"Are you drunk?"
"Maybe. I really am an idiot sometimes." My brain wanted to switch off and just go to sleep but I just can't act weak around this guy or he'll do something to me. I should be much more conscious around this guy.
"Don't sleep here. I'd have to carry you to my home again."
"Fine by me." I dropped my head on his lap and drifted into a deep sleep.
