Bad News
Capturing His HeartWet hair dripping on my shirt, I sat on the windowsill in my room, reading a book, but it's impossible to pay attention to what's actually happening in the story. I can't stop thinking about Taec. I had, possibly the best night ever last night. I'm still incredibly confused as to whether or not he likes me. I put my book down and looked out the window. The autumn leaves that burned bright lightened my mood and took my mind off of the busy boy drama momentarily. I pictured walking around outside playing in the fall leaves with Taecyeon. That'd be nice.
I went to the dining hall for breakfast, but there was no sign of Taecyeon. Then I went to lunch later at the time that Taecyeon and I usually have lunch together... still no sign of Taecyeon. Maybe I should text him?
"Hey, wanna have lunch with me?" Sent.
I received a text almost immediately: "Sorry, I already ate."
"Oh... okay. Then I'll see you later."
And then there was no reply. That's weird. I guess... he's busy? I probably shouldn't take this to heart. It's fine. I have work to do too. I grabbed a paper plate and made myself a sandwich to take back to my room.
I sat in my room, working, to take my mind off of Taecyeon, but every hour or so, the thought of Taecyeon avoiding me returned. I wonder what must have happened... I didn't do anything... did I? Then I got ready for chapel after eating dinner with Nicole.
Later at community chapel, I see him sitting a few pews behind me. As we processed out of the chapel, I walked pass him, and he avoided eye contact with me. I really wonder if I did something wrong... I hope it's nothing big.
I didn't want to seem to clingy since he was already avoiding me. Instead of waiting for him outside of the chapel, I walked back to my dorm with my girlfriends.
Monday morning rolled around before I knew it and thankfully I had History first period so that I could talk to Khun and maybe get some information out of him, but before I could ask, Khun pulled me aside to tell me something.
"Tiffany, I need to tell you something," he said urgently.
I looked at him, hoping he would give me some good news.
"Taecyeon knows that you like him."
"What? How? Is that why he's avoiding me?"
"He's been avoiding you? That's not good..."
"Wait. How did he find out?"
"Chansung told him."
Are you kidding me?!??? "What??" I said loudly.
"Yeah. Last night we were having a bro chat, and then someone brought you up. Then Chansung was telling us about how he really liked you in the first week of school, and that he just figured that you liked him at that time too. He then continued to say how stupid he felt, and how he wished you just told him. Then, Taecyeon jumped in, and mind you, he didn't look too happy. He was basically telling Chansung about how it's his fault that he lost that chance, and how big of an idiot Chansung is for not realizing how much you liked him. That if he even had the slight idea that someone like you liked him, he'd jump on the chance and not let it go. Then, suddenly, Chansung blurted out that you like Taecyeon, and Taecyeon fell silent. I guess right now he just feels really awkward and stupid for not realizing it, especially after yelling at Chansung for it. I wouldn't worry too much about it."
"I'm going to kill Chansung. And how can I not worry about it? Taecyeon is avoiding me left and right!!"
"Just ignore him for now. Both of them. It's your best bet."
I sighed as I walked back into the history classroom. I couldn't even concentrate during class because all I could think about was a way to fix the situation.
I walked back to my dorm after school and sat on the porch contemplating the possibilities of the future. I could see no way out of this fickle. What am I going to do now?
