Unrequited

That day was beautiful, as the clouds were up in the sky and the breeze was soothing through their skin. The ‘couple’ were just sitting some distance away from the beach, above the slope, and was just staring at the two girls having fun by the shore. It was like the two of them were watching a romcom movie, something that isn’t totally their style.

The silence between the two was comforting before Eunji started humming a song that comes in a form of tease, but also something they could see themselves in.

“Oh it’s so sad to belong to someone else, when the right one comes along~~~” Eunji sang, receiving another smack from Chorong as a reply. She complained on the pain and pouted, that didn’t work on Chorong who just laughed evilly next to her.

“They seem so happy together…” Chorong muttered after a while, seeing Bomi and Naeun hugging each other by the shore, after their shared the sweetest kiss the newly formed couple can come up with. Chorong was dead jealous but accepted the feelings right away. She knows it will happen anyway… Sooner than later.

Eunji, who was sitting next to her, can’t take the scene and ended up lying on the sand instead and sighed. She was carrying her ukulele since a moment earlier and casually played a soft tune. Although the lyrics were sad but at least they both like it as it makes them want to eat ice cream all of a sudden.

“Stop saying that I fell from heaven, you don’t even know how I feel… Should I just let it go? But only I’m the fool who swallows her thoughts… I don’t want to be the nice girl by your side anymore, I don’t want that, I want to act like a fox… I’m not the person who always stood behind you, praying for your love~”

Together, the two sang in both happiness and sadness as the lyrics of the song got the best of them. They sang songs, pretty much everything they could think of, not until Eunji got the perfect song in the situation.

“She says he's so in love
she’s finally got it right
I wonder if she knows
she’s all I think about at night

She's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
the only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
she's the song in the car I keep singing
don't know why I do”

Chorong could sense all emotions coming through her voice. She’s known Eunji’s talent for so long. It was in her singing, on how she could perfectly portray the feelings of the song. Eunji was always great in showing her emotions, it was just that people were just too blind to see it.

I mean, think about it, when did Eunji never fail on showing her feelings?

“She walks by me
Can she tell that
