61 mm

Him & Chapsticks

It was the second day of avoiding the convenience store.Turns out,Jeon Jungkook was going to replace Min Yoongi in the midnight shift while,the latter took the morning shift.I couldn't help but hated my childhood friend now,since,I couldn't buy my favorite grape popsicle in the middle of the night without making an idiot of myself.

 

3 mm of chapstick had been used and I still haven't got the answer to my own question.

 

Maybe,I was thinking too much.

 

Maybe,it was included in the purchase.

 

Ah,why do I have to be so darn creative with my own mind ?

 

It's giving me too many hopes.

 

"Whatever !"I said out loud without myself noticing as I slammed the book shut,earning glares from the people who were studying in the library.I pinked and I quickly scrambled out of the library with my books,embarrassed with my sudden outburst.Running out of the door of the library with books covering my vision didn't help me much as I bumped into a person,making papers flying towards every direction.

 

"Oh god,I'm so sorry,"I mumbled the words out as I collected the papers that were strewn all over the floor.It was a good thing that I didn't fell as well,or I would have never forgive myself.

 

"It's okay,"I froze for a moment and slowly,I raised my head up,meeting eyes.Dark eyes and long bangs that almost covered his eyes.

 

Oh no!It's Jeon Jungkook...

 

It was not a shocker that I was loss for words as the both of us stood up and I had to take a few steps back since,I was so short.Darn,my short legs...He gave me the other papers that he helped me to collect and I whispered a low 'thanks' under my breath.Jungkook smiled for a moment and it made me questioned on why we were bumping too frequently,these past few days.

 

"Looks like you used the chapstick,didn't you ?"he asked as he pulled me to the side by the shoulders.I shivered from the touch before slapping his hands away and slanted my eyes at him.

 

"Why did you even gave me one ?"I answered him with a question,arms clutching tight onto my belongings.His lips formed a thin line as he brought his head lower,to be the same height of me.Jeon Jungkook flashed a cheeky smile and my heart doubled but,I knew better than to give away my expression for a guy like him.No way,I was going to fall for a popular guy like him.

 

"Your lips were chapped,"

 

"And I hate chapped lips....Especially....."He said as his eyes looked everywhere on my face except my eyes.He never continued on his words as he pulled back and entered the library,leaving me all alone and confuse.

 

Well,that answered my question !

 

At least,I know that he doesn't have any hidden agenda.

 

Like I said,this is not a movie.The guy would only be insane to like me.

 

"Hey,mom!Wow,you looked beautiful like always,"I said honestly and couldn't help but envy her.I had always wondered as to why I was so different from everyone from my family.I mean,like Taehyung had the good genes while,I was the shorty with pimples.My hormones were still wild,I tell you.

 

I was still wondering over the guy who had liked me when,we were still in middle school.How did he freaking he liked me ?

 

"Darling,you're beautiful too,"she said to comfort me but I didn't believe her words at all.I only smiled and asked her about her day as my eyes scanned over my mother's face.She was still a beauty even if,she was nearing her fifties.Seeing all of my relatives are so beautiful and handsome is making me so insecure about myself.

 

Even with all of that insecurity going through my mind,I still heard my mom rambling about her day over skype.I fidgeted around the floor since,my was getting rather numb from sitting too long as I walked around the rooftop.

 

"Taehyung said that he was going to visit you in the summer.He misses you to be honest,"my mom whispered over her phone and I laughed when,I noticed Taehyung was behind my mother,squinting his eyes at me,wanting an answer from me to confirm his suspicions and I did just that.

 

"Aww,that oppa and his brother's instinct,"

 

"Mom,I heard that,"my brother whined playfully with shoulders shaking.God,he was such a baby.Eventually,all I was seeing was my mom asking forgiveness from him with me still on the phone and ended conversation when,Min Yoongi came to the rooftop with some snacks in his hands.

 

"Did you get my favorite ?"I asked while,skipping towards him.Min Yoongi scoffed as if he was offended by my words while,his hands went to his back pocket and showed a grape popsicle.He smiled with his gums showing and I immediately snatched it away.

 

"Thanks,"

 

"Welcome,idiot.So....Please tell me,you're not avoiding the convenience store because of Jeon Jungkook,"he asked as he walked to stand in front of me with hands on his waist while,I was spitting back out the grape popsicle back.Glaring at him,I threw the grape popsicle into the trashcan.He totally knows how to make me lose my appetite.Yoongi raised an eyebrow in amusement when,he saw me doing that.

 

"It was a lemon popsicle,apparently and I am not avoiding the convenience store,"I said in denial and Yoongi was being sarcastic with me as he blurted out a 'sure' and blew a raspberry.He totally didn't believe me.I was pouting by that time and stood up,leaning agaisnt the railing to look at the road while,Yoongi put his back to the railing to look at my face.It somehow made me uncomfortable.

 

"Saera,you can't be avoiding boys all the time,"

 

"I am not,"I said again,more in denial than ever before.

 

"How about we make a bet ?"

 

I was so stupid to agree to it,beforehand.I'm such an idiot.

 

I shifted my weight to my left foot then, to my right foot as I stared dumbfoundedly at the entrance of the convenience store.You sly,Min Yoongi.Pouting,I looked at the guy beside me,wanting to abandon the bet.

 

"Yoongi oppa ~Can't we do somethi-"

 

"Nope,I want you to buy my favorite snack from this convenience store,"and my plan failed,obviously.Help,anybody!Finally,I entered the convenience store with a push from Min Yoongi and instantly,eyes were on me.Jeon Jungkook's to be precise.He smiled and leaned against the counter while,I turned around to see Yoongi knocking on the glass door before showing a 'fighting' gesture then,he was gone like the wind.Then,it was only the two of us again.

 

"Hey,chapped lips.We meet again for the second time for today"

 

"Hey,nivea,"I mumbled before,going to the snack's section to get away from Jeon Jungkook.

 

This is not a movie.

 

Nothing's going to change.

 

Yeah,nothing's going change but somehow,in some ways,I wanted something to happen.
