Chapter 15 - Something Strange

Jas's POV:

(Still on the phone)

"OMG ! Clare, Han just texted me." I may have shouted due to excitement.

"You Idiot, tell me what it is about", Clare shouted back from the other side.

"He asked me to him after class in the coffee house. Should I consider it as a date? Clare, tell me what should I do? I don't know how to react. If it's not a date then I don't want to embarrass myself by getting overdressed."

"Shut up and calm down first. Tell me first, what did you reply?"

"Obviously Clare, why would I say no to him?"

"Did you reply to him just in a second?" Now her voice sounds demanding and I don't even know why.

"Yes, of course I did, why?" I answered her hesitatingly.

"You are surely an Idiot. Who replies right away. Now, he must have assumed that you were waiting for his text all day", she shouted again.

"You are right. But I was desperately waiting"

"But, he doesn't have to know about it, you dumb. It's alright. I will teach you everything. Facetime me later. Now I have to go"

"Aright, bye" I cut the call.

As soon as I was about to throw my phone on the bed and regret all my life decisions, I got another text.

'Sorry for today. I didn't have much time to talk to you. How was your day?' It was Han.

I was about to reply right away but as suggested by Clare, I waited for 2-3 minutes to reply to him back.

'It's okay. I was busy all day. I had back to back classes and at the end of the day I was tired. So, I came back home early. How was your day?"

'Yeah, the classes were good but I was really hoping to see you. I guess there wasn't any luck'

Suddenly I got a text from Sanhyul to meet him outside.

I went to look for him. He was standing on the porch with his hands in his front pocket of his pants.

"Yeah, Sanhyul, I am sure I didn't do anything this time. I did try to play your guitar again but I am sure I had kept it properly in its place." I was stuttering like a fool as once I had broken his guitar strings while he wasn't there and I didn't tell him about it. He is very possessive about his instruments. He didn't speak to me for a day and even avoided me. I felt so guilty for it after I got to know it was a gift from his grandfather. "No, you dumb. It's not about that and when did you touch my guitar again", he flicked his finger on my forehead. "Ouch, Sanhyul, I told you even before it hurts", I massaged my forehead. "Alright, I won't do it", he took my hands out of forehead and massaged it using his fingers, "actually, I came here to tell you, as I don't have morning practice nowadays, I can give you a ride or whatever". I could see he was a little embarrassed. He looks so cute. Even now he hasn't stopped massaging my forehead. I know he cares about me alot but won't show it. He and his dumb attitude. "Thanks Sanhyul, I won't be late. I will be ready by 7." I replied while trying to control my smile at his so-called 'childish attitude'. He looks so adorable now. I wish I could squeeze his cheeks just to annoy him but I know if I do, the result won't be great. He wouldn't let me go without a hard flick on my forehead or without squeezing my cheeks. I took his hand from my forehead, "it's okay, I am fine now".

"Alright, bye then. Good night", he left even before I said anything. I am sure he is too embarrassed to look at me now. I like that about him. Beneath that cool attitude, he is a softie.
