Namjoon's pov :
Jin went for a shower and I walked out for a fresh air.
I told her to forget what I said then, but I want to know how she would react to my proposal.
I have snucked out of the hotel and walked to the beach and started walking on the shore.
The beach, the refreshing air, the moon's reflection on the sea on which the waves are rushing towards me. The view is so beautiful. This view will stay in my heart for a long time.
Jikyo? Why is she walking here alone? She saw me and waved awkwardly.
I walked towards her and spoke, "Why are you here alone?"
"What about you?", she asked me.
"I wanted to have some fresh air...."
"Me too"
"You came without intimating Mr. Song about it, right? Wait until I tell about it to him", I teased her.
"As if! You came alone too.. You didn't inform about yourself to Mr.Song too, did you?"
"I did!", I lied to her.
She raised her eyebrow and we laughed together after a second of eye contact.
We walked together in silence and I asked her with hesitation, "Ummm... Jikyo... I know that I asked you to forget about me asking you out, but what do you think about it?"
She sighed.
"I thought you asked me to forget about it",she spoke, "So I never thought about it. I'll need some time"
I nodded and there is a long, awkward silence between us.
"Let's go back to the hotel", I asked her.
"You go ahead. I'll walk for a bit more time", she spoke and I nodded and walked away.
Jin walked towards the same time when I started leaving the beach.
Jikyo's pov:
Jin walked towards me.
My brain is filled with Joon's proposal.What should I do about it?
"Huh? Why are you here at this time?", he asked me..
"For some fresh air. What about you?", I asked him.
"Same", he spoke and we started walking together.
"Let's sit for a while", he asked me and I nodded. We sat together for a while.
"Isn't the scenery beautiful?", he asked me.
"Absolutely beautiful", I sighed.
" what is that sigh for?", he asked me.
" Because it's too beautiful...", I spoke and he ignored me because he didn't understand what I have said.
"Actually... Namjoon proposed me", I told him what is going on in my head.
"O-oh... So, how did you respond?", he looked as if he was totally taken aback.
"... Actually he asked me out twice today", I started. He looked at me in total surprise.
"First time, he told me that he liked me at Busan tower and told me to forget that. He asked me what would have been my response if he had asked me out...And I told him I need some time".
"What did he say?", he asked me.
I shrugged.
"Can I give you an advice?", he asked me. I nodded.
"Say no to him", he told me. But why?
Wait...
Don't tell me...
Is that him telling me that he likes me?
"Why?", I asked him.
"How should I put this...? You will lose your friendship if you started dating. In my opinion, friendship is greater than love. You shouldn't lose friendship for love", he spoke.
What did I even expect? He might have noticed that I started liking him and he told me off in this way.
"I never thought you could speak this well", I spoke.
"Hmm? Why?", he asked me.
"Never mind, I'm going back to my room. Bye", I spoke and turned to see Namjoon watching us.
I walked past him to the room.
Namjoon's pov:
Jin walked towards her as I was walking away from her.
He approached her and sat with her on the shore of the sea.
Should I leave them alone or listen to my conversation?
I let my curiosity get ahead of me. I snuck behind the nearest tree and started listening to them.
"Namjoon proposed to me", my heart skipped a beat when she mentioned me.
She explained how I asked her out to him. It's so embarrassing to listen.
"What did you say?", he asked her, but there is no response.
"Can I give you an advice?", he asked her....
"Say no to him", he spoke.
This crazy son of a b*ch!
"Why?", she asked him.
How should I put this...? You will lose your friendship if you started dating. In my opinion, friendship is greater than love. You shouldn't lose friendship for love", he spoke.
How should I take this? I clearly told him that I like her from a long time. He told her not to accept my proposal.
I'm done with him.
She walked away and I walked towards him swiftly and grabbed him by his collar.
"Why did you do that?", I glared at him.
"What? I spoke what I mean", he released my grip from his collar.
"So.. Do you mean that you don't want to tell her about your feelings?", I growled at him.
"I didn't exactly mean that, but yes. I'm not going to tell her my feelings and lose our friendship", he spoke.
"Okay then, never tell her about your feelings. Don't speak to me either. I'm done with your shit", I pushed him slightly and walked back to our room.
Jin's pov:
I just don't understand. Where did I go wrong?
I just wanted the three of us stay together. Is that too much to ask for?
Should I have told her to say yes to him?
Did I told her to reject him because of my selfishness?
Should I ask her to accept him? No, it will get worse if I do that.
I can't take back what I said and what happened.
I will try to mend our friendship by talking to both of them honestly tomorrow.
I walked back to my room and slept.
The next morning, I washed up and moved to Jikyo, not expecting the scene that happened before me.
