Chereads / Levanter / Chapter 37 - 36

Chapter 37 - 36

It's already 8 and everything is settled. They're now outside and sitting near the bon fire.

They have barbeque, marshmallow,  chips, soft drinks and beer with them. Jisung buy a lot of food and when you said a lot, it's really a lot.

Jisung is eating Seungmin's barbeque while Seungmin is drinking cola while eating chips.

"So, what are we going to do?" Seungmin asked before munching some snacks.

"I want to just a casual talk. It will be more fun if all of our friends are here." Jisung said before drinking his beer.

"I agree. Anyways, how's life?"

"What do you mean 'How's life?'"

"How's your boring life. No relationship, only friends, only make out. So how's life?"

"Huh, thank you for reminding me Mr. Life is perfect." Jisung sassed.

"Whatever, are you really not going to have a permanent relationship?"

"I don't know, maybe love is not just for me. All of the person that I like is already taken."

"Minho hyung is already taken?"

"What the hell are you saying? I don't like him for pete's sake."

"Why? Don't you like him?"

"The hell I'm not. I will never like him."

"I think you are. Do you believe in the saying that the more you hate, the more you love."

"Well baby, I have my own saying. The more you hate, the more you hate."

"What hell is that saying? You're nonsense."

"The hell dude. I'm handsome but not nonsense."

"Yes you are Mister, anyway. Whose the person that you like?"

"The person that will never love me back."

"Why?"

"Because he's already taken. And I know no one can break them apart."

"So you're wishing for them to be teared apart."

"Not wishing but regretting. I have so many question and what ifs in my head. What if I became more close to him, what if I make my first move?, what if I'm the one who confess to him first, what if I didn't let myself to be afraid. Will he love me? Will he accept or reject me. Does he like me too? Does we will end up together too just like his relationship now. I don't know, I regret everything that I didn't do. Now I know why they say that it's better to regret what you do than to regret what you ever do."

Seungmin didn't respond and just look at Jisung whose looking at the sea that is now embrace with the darkness but the moon is giving the light and make it beautiful.

This is the first time that Jisung actually being serious and honest to him. He know Jisung as a happy and jolly person. He never thought that Jisung have this kind of side. The serious and honest side.

"I don't know what to say." That's the only thing that Seungmin said.

"It's ok, you don't need to say anything."

"I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what?"

"Because I ask that stupid question. I don't want you to be sad." Jisung smiled because of what Seungmin said. He looked at Seungmin whose pouting while looking at him.

"It's ok, don't pout. You look like ugly duckling."

"Yah, I'm more handsome than you." Jisung chuckled and just shake his head before looking at the sea.

"Do you mind if I ask who is he?"

"You." Jisung answered.

"What? Answer me properly."

"It's you idiot. But don't worry, that's all in the past."

Seungmin eyes widen and his mouth is widely open.

"You've gotta be kidding me."

"Of course not, but now I'm happy for you. You deserve Hyunjin than me. I have regrets but I don't regret that you ended up with Hyunjin. Just tell me if ever that Hyunjin cheated on you. Ok?"

"Are you serious?"

"I am, why? Are you going to avoid me now?"

"Nope, I'm not immature to avoid you just because you confess to me but please, don't tell to Hyunjin that you confess to me. Please."

"Ok, but you need to treat me lunch tomorrow."

"Fine."

"But I want to ask you, if ever that I confess to you. Will you accept me or reject?"

"Do you want the honest answer?"

"Yeah."

"Maybe reject. To be honest I like Hyunjin since the first time that I saw him. Sorry, I'm just being honest."

"It's ok."

"Shall we go now? We need to prepare, we will leave later."

"Just one more hour."

"Ok."

They stay there for one more hour, just talking about random things and topics before going back to the vacation house.

They prepare to leave when they enter the house. Jisung go to his room, same to Seungmin.

After preparing, they both go to the airport and fly back to Seoul.
