What's more important?

Friendship?

Or Love?

If you are single, having friends is what keeps you going in life. 

If you find someone you love, you have both your friends and the one you love.

And if that someone, that you were sure that you loved, ended up dumping you, well you still have your friends. The same friends you entrusted with nearly every detail in your whole life. You're not even afraid to show off who you really are, because they're your friends.

That's what I call true friends.

But sometimes, you're unsure if you guys are that close or not. 

People say that the friends in high school are just typical friends. But the friends you make in college, they say they're your true friends, real friends.

And I believed it. 

Being friends with someone was one thing, but willing to do anything for a friend, is a whole other story. 

Just because I didn't want to lose a friend, my best friend, I chose to be the nice friend and be supportive. I'm not even sure if my decision was a wise one or not. 

 

"______!" 

I snapped out of my thoughts. What was I doing again? "Yah! _____! Were you even listening to me?"

I looked up to see Eunnie, my best friend that I only know for 7 months. But believe it or not, we're like blood sisters. We understand each other. "Nani?" I questioned her in Japanese, just for kicks, since we're big anime people anyways. 

She turned to me, holding up two outfits in her hands. "Which looks good on me? This? Or That?" she exchanged between a simple sweater shirt and the other cute striped long sleeve shirt.

I wanted to frown to bad, but I couldn't. So I kept my smile up and faked my happiness, "You should definitely go for the long sleeve." I advised her. She smiled, "I agree as well." She happily smiled, as she began to change. I turned back to my workbook. I sadly frowned to myself. 

I should be happy for her right? I mean I did do the right thing...right? I mean Eunnie could never know what my true feelings are...

"I'm so excited! This is Yoseob-ah's and my first date! Well...if you don't count the part on how he asked me out," she giggled to herself, bringing a bit of pain to my chest. I didn't want to talk about Yoseob anymore. It was just too much already.

"Neh~ ______~ I still can't believe it. I could have sworn that you and Yoseob would be together. But in the end...he asked me out," she unknowingly offended me. But I didn't make a fit about it. Since I could never be mad at the person who understands me and doesn't judge. She's my best friend after all. Plus she's so happy.

"You're that happy huh?" I gently smiled at her, taking off my large black head phones. Eunnie looked over at me, as if I caught her in a terrible act. "You could tell?" I laughed. "How is it not that obvious?" I pointed at her forhead, "It says it all over your face." She laughed. "You know me best, huh, _____?"

I nodded. I did know her best. But it looks like she doesn't know me as much as I could imagine her to try. 

She tried to play off her cool face, but it's too obvious that she was nervous and excited at the same time. "It's just that...I never had a boyfriend before. I'm not too sure of what to expect..." She pulled her pikachu stuffed animal and hugged it, in a thoughtful manner.

This is exactly why I can't be selfish. She's too sweet for words. I could never ruin this moment for her. I smiled and went back to work, putting on my headphones. But I wasn't able to focus at all. I couldn't help but think back to when I had first met this girl. 

 

*(Fall Semester; Freshmen Year in College)*

**FlashBack (First Week of College)**

-First Day of Music Class-

"Wah...these people are so tall..." I mumbled to myself. I had just walked into the largest building on campus. The Art building. I had walked around campus 10 times already, and I'm still unsure if I'm in the right building or not. Omo! I see a large crowd of students waiting patiently in the large titled hallway. Maybe they're in the same class as I am. I walked up to the crowd, wanting to see if the door had the right room number or not. 

Suddenly someone passed by me, catching my own eyes. She was different. She had very light brunette hair and slightly shorter than me. But she seemed somewhat similar to me. And suddenly I saw something on her backpack that made me want to talk to her. But when she turned away, to go somewhere else, I could see that face expression where she sent me a vibe saying, "I'm not in the mood to talk to anyone right now." 

I immediately backed up, not wanting to give her the wrong idea or anything. 

And suddenly everyone began to push me from behind, making me gasp. "Y-yah!" I complained.

"Aye, just go in! We all need a seat as well!" a deep voice man complained, pushing me forward. "But...I'm not sure---" I was interrupted as a huge ocean of students pushed me through the doors. I floated away, unable to push against the force of the wave.

"Okay students! Hurry in! We must start immediately!" the professor had yelled out. I mentally cursed myself. What if I'm in the wrong class? I'll be totally dead! "Make sure you're in Music Appreciation class! If you're not...well...just leave...if you can!" he laughed out loud. OMO! I am in the right class!

I hurriedly took a seat in a row of empty seats. Looks like I could get a good view from here.

Then as I waited as students entered, one by one, students sat in front of me and behind me. But never beside me. I pouted to myself, as I plugged in my earphones. I mumbled to myself, "Am I that weird looking?" I shrugged and listened to the music. 

"Hey!" someone waved their hand in front of me, making me automatically pulling out my earphones. "Yeh?" I looked up to see that short girl again. "Do you mind if I sit here?" 

I was definitely shocked, that she was actually talking to me. I feel compelled right now, but I played it off with coolness, "Yeah. Go for it." Smooth one ______.

She smiled and told her friends that she was with to sit, including a very good looking one, who sat right next to me on my left. But the girl didn't have a seat, unless she's gonna sit to my right. I looked up to her, a bit worried, "Here, I'll move over so you could----" But she held up her hand, smiling. "Anniyo. Gwenchana. Sit, sit. I'll just sit here instead," she pointed to the chair next to me. 

But didn't she want to sit next to her friends instead? She was very weird. I shrugged, as I took a glance at the guy next to me. He looked very attractive, in an unbelievable way. He cooly looked over at me, as our eyes locked for a few seconds, shocking me. I turned away immediately. Maybe I should switch seats with----

"So, what's your major?" the girl next to me asked.

I looked up, unsure what she meant, "Y-yeh?"

She looked at me seriously, "What's your major?"

"Record and filming," I smiled. Maybe I could have a short decent conversation. I'll probably never see her again.

"Oh! That's interesting! I'm majoring in Music," she smiled. "Oh! That's really interesting!" I exclaimed. She smiled. "Hi! I'm Eunnie," she stuck her hand out. I smiled and brought my hand up to her's, shaking it, "Hi! I'm _______. Please to meet you."

"What are you listening to?" she asked me, after our short greeting. I looked at my iPod. I nervously smiled. She's going to think I'm some weirdo or something if I said that I was listening to KPOP. "Um..."

Then she looked at my iPod screen and a huge grin grew on her face, "I LOVE DBSK!" My jaw dropped. No. Frickin'. Way. This can't be happening.

"Although, I'm unsure what is going on right now, but I still love their music!" she smiled, looking forward. I smiled, "It's really good! Even now, I still love them."

"Do you know the song Balloons?" Eunnie asked, happy as ever. I smiled, "FIRST SONG I LISTENED FROM THEM!" I nearly squealed out of excitement. 

And from there, we started off as good friends. The next lecture day, I wasn't sure if I should save her a spot or not. Since I'm not too sure if she was willing to sit next to me again. I looked over at her group of friends that were with her for the first lecture, but it didn't seem like they saved her a spot. So just in case I saw her again I left my backpack in the chair next to me. 

The same guy that had came and sat next to me when I first met Eunji, had came to sit next to me as well. But I didn't mind, since he never seemed to make fun of me or anything like that. And just before class started, Eunji didn't even bother to run to her group of friends, but ran over next to me instead. "You saved me a spot?" I nodded, unsure if she thought I was weird or not, but all she did was smile. "Komawo, chingu-ah!" And she sat next to me. And we continued our conversation from the other day. Laughing and talking to each other, we discovered that we were from the same area of Korea. So we ended up exchanging numbers. And from then on, we were known as friends. Everyday in class, her friends that had been with her the first day, had never saved her a spot. 

Often classmates had looked at us and wondered if were were sisters or even twins. We laughed and shook our heads. Impossible. She was way prettier than I was. How could they mistaken that at all?

*End of FlashBack*

 

That's how I became friends with Eunji. I couldn't believe that I was friends with such a person. She's more than just pretty. She's cool and totally optimistic. 

Although, I don't blame people when they think we're related in some sort of way, other than being friends of course. I'll be honest though. It was like I was looking in the mirror, including my personality as well. She loved KPOP, she really loves her anime, she definitely has a passion for what she wants to study for, she's very optimistic and out going, that I could just see me in her. It was weird. 

"_______!" I looked up, pulling off my headphones again. Eunnie laughed. "I've been calling you! You shouldn't have put up your music so loud!" I couldn't help but smile as well. Her goofiness is just too contagious to avoid. "Do you wanna come get dinner with Yoseob and I tomorrow?" 

In an instant second, I thought about it. Should I be the third wheel and make things awkward? Or allow her to enjoy her time with Yoseob, the guy that I had originally had a crush on. I knew exactly what I chose. "Naw~ Gwenchana! I have plans..."

"OH! Really? With who?" Eunnie became curious. I gulped. . I didn't think this through.

"Ummm...uhhh...I'm hanging out with stupid Doojoon," I lied. It was the only excuse I had in mind. "WAH! Chincha?" she gasped. I slowly nodded. Well it was the only person that I had in mind. Doojoon was the guy that had sat next to me on the first day of lecture for Music Appreciation class. It's no big deal of how we talked, but I guess I could share that part with you guys.

 

*FlashBack (Two weeks into college)*
"Umm...excuse me!" I pulled off my headphones, to see a guy waving his hand in front of my face. My eyes widened with shock. It was the guy that had always sat next to me in Music Appreciation with me! Does he have this film class with me as well? "Can I sit here?" he asked, pointing at the seat to my left. I nodded, a bit speechless. He smiled and quickly sat down next to me. "You're the only person I know that is in this class."

"E-eh?" I mumbled. 

He smiled, "You're the only person that I know that I have two classes with. No one else here that I know of is here." He made it clearer, earning a nod from me.

"Hi! I never introduced myself to you. I'm Yoon Doojoon!"

"I'm ________" I introduced myself, smiling a bit as he instantly grabbed my hand to shake. After a bit of our greetings, we went back to being silent. I looked at my watch. We still had 15 minutes before class started. I looked over at Doojoon a bit, as he shyly looked over at me. But we never talked one bit. So I attempted to put on my headphones on again, but he snatched them away. "Yah!" I complained.

"Wah! What brand is this? They look expensive!" this guy looked at my headphones. "Yah! They're mine!"

"They're amazing!" Doojoon smiled. I pouted, "Yah! Give them back! I want them back!" But Doojoon extended his arms to the left to where I wasn't even able to even take the end of my cord. 

Then he snatched my iPod. "YAH!" 

"Omigosh! I love this song!" Doojoon smiled looking at my playlist. I blushed a bit. This is embarrassing..."Umm...please don't look at it..."

"Here!" he put up one earphone earbud up into my left ear, surprising me. "Let's listen to your iPod together!" I looked over at him, as he childishly put the other on in his right ear to listen to 'Balloons' by DBSK. I couldn't help but smirk at his cuteness. This guy... And so after that day, we exchanged numbers. "Yah! You have to promise that we'll study together!" I held up my pinky for him to promise. He smiled as he grabbed it with his pinky. "And you have to promise to text me or call me when you have a song in mind for me to listen to!" I nodded, smiling. 

And just like that, I had made a new friend, Yoon Doojoon. 

But it turns out the more you got to know him, the more meaner he gets! He's always picking on me. And because of him, I'm just as mean to him now. 

*End of FlashBack*

 

"_________~" I looked up at Eunnie. My jaw nearly dropped. "Wah..." was all I could say. Eunnie looked gorgeous. She never dressed up this nice before. Typically she's always up for just a T-shirt and basketball shorts. 

"You don't think it's too much?" Eunnie blushed a bit, looking at herself in the mirror. 

"Is going out with Yoseob that much of an occassion?" I nearly frowned again, but I kept up my hyperness. She turned to me, offended. "YAH! It doesn't matter if we're just going to his place! I wanna look good for Yoseob." I turned back to my desk. Maybe I should start packing up. 

I began to gather my journals and laptop and put them in my backpack. "You're going already?" Eunnie looked over at me, pouting. 

I faked smiled, "Yeah. I just checked my text messages. Looks like dumb Doojoon wants to meet up!" 

"Ahhh...I see! Well have fun!" she smiled. "Wish me luck on my date!" I nodded, still holding up my act, when really I felt somewhat upset. But I wasn't able to show it to her. She has seen me get upset over other things. But she has never seen me upset at her. That's just because I want her to keep being happy. It's hard to be mad at her, when she said that I was practically like her lost twin. 

*FlashBack (2nd Month of College)*

"Do you know why I wanted to be a music major?" Eunnie had looked at me, as we were walking down the lone streets of our campus. No one was out this late. We were out here, because we needed some time from our boring dorm and went exploring. 

I looked over at her. "Wae?"

"I wanted to create music to where even famous idols would come to me and ask me to compose or even record their albums for them," she dreamingly looked up at the night sky. I looked up as well. 

"But really...I actually want to raise a lot of money," I looked over at her, confused. Eunnie looked over at me, "I want a lot of money." I didn't know what to say to that. I didn't know she was like this. "You pabo." I looked over at her, with a feeling of confusion agian. "I'm not like that at all. I want a lot of money. Enough money to get my younger brother the treatment he needs to live."

"What does he have?" I carefully asked, not wanting her to feel hurt. 

She stretched a bit, "It's a brain disorder. Very rare, even I don't even know what's it called." I was silent for a moment, unsure what to say. It'll be okay? I'll pray for your brother? I hope things are alright...I'm not even sure what to say. What was appropriate or not. Instead, I gave her a pitiful look.

"Yah! Don't be like that. I thought I should share this, since you told me why you wanted to be a film major," she smiled. That's right, I had told her, not to long ago that the reason why wanted to be a film major, was to get the story of my passed mother to the world. It was painful for me to have said that she's passed, even though I don't believe it still, but Eunnie had reassured me that things will brighten up soon.

"Yah know...I feel like this is destiny," she smiled over at me, as we turned a corner, approaching our dorm soon. "Why do you say that?"

"Yah! Don't you think it's definitely weird that I knew you're archenemy before we even met?" she smiled. I nodded, "That's true..." It had turned out that she knew my archenemy back in high school by seeing him at an anime convention. Totally weird.

"I feel like we're meant to have met each other. We're so alike! We have our reasons to enter this college. We came from the same area of Korea. People even think we are sisters! You're like my long lost fraternal twin!" she shouted out, wrapping an arm around my shoulders. Despite her height, she still managed to keep her arm around my shoulders.

I smiled. I'll be honest, I had felt that she was my long lost sibling as well. It was weird how we were so related. 

"Let's go grab some dokkbokki! I'm craving some now! Kaja?" Eunnie smiled, leading the way, dragging me along. I laughed as she did so. This girl. What will happen when we didn't know each other?

*End of FlashBack*

 

"Bye Eunnie! Wish you luck on your date!" I cheered her on, as I left the room. As soon as I shut the door, I sighed a painful breathe of air that kept my tears back. 

There are some things in life that makes it hard on friendships sometimes. 

We're not sure if it's a test or what. But somehow, things turn out to be part of destiny. Just somehow.

I walked down the hallway, turning corners to reach the elevator. As I got in the elevator, I put on my headphones and blasted out happy dance music. Music that I would wanna really dance to in the streets. I pulled out my phone and texted, "Yah! Pabo Doojoon! Meet you in front of the tower in 15 mins! Don't be late or you're dead!" And I sent the message.

----------

"What's wrong now?" Doojoon came running to me as I was waiting for him in front of the tower, sitting on the steps. He was breathing hard. I looked at my cell phone, seeing that he was 5 minutes late. "Yah! You're late!" 

"I didn't see the message!" Doojoon complained. I pouted, "Who was there when you immediately texted me about your terrible blind date? HM?" I reminded him. He sighed, "Mianhe! Really! I am!" 

"Whatever, you're as useless as ever," I complained. 

"Yah! I'm here now!" Doojoon sat next to me. I sighed. "It's Yoseob and Eunji again...right?" I nodded. I clenched my chest. 

"Come on, you know you wanna do it," Doojoon grabbed my hand and intertwining our hands together. I nodded, standing up with him. It's not what you think. It's our special way of comforting each other. "Kaja, let's go for a nice walk, neh?" he offered me, pulling me along as we headed down the sidewalk. "And we'll even talk about it, neh?" I nodded, feeling myself silently cry. No one has ever seen me cry, only him and Eunnie, but that's all. 

"Let's start off with what happened today?" I nodded as I explained to him what was going on. And as I spoke to him, I couldn't help remember the time that Eunnie and I met Yoseob.

 

*FlashBack (3 months into College)*

"Wahhh! I'm tired!" I stretched. We just finished working out in the gym. "Yah! I'm aching like a !" Eunnie laughed as she carefully sat on a bench nearby. I smiled as I gave her a water bottle. She smiled and accepted it, "Komawo~" 

I smiled as I decided to stand up instead. I opened my bottle and took a large gulp of water. "Yah! Don't drown now!" Eunnie complained. I laughed as I looked around the walls, staring at the bullettin board. Then something caught my eyes. I walked over to the board. 

"Yah! What are you looking at?" Eunnie called out to me, but I ignored her. I pulled the piece of paper off the board, smiling. "Yah!" Eunnie ran over to me, wondering what I was staring at. 

As soon as she laid her eyes on the advertisement, she was completely silent. Both her and I looked up at each other. "Wanna go?" 

------

"Wah! We made it before the show time!" I cheered, stepping down the stairway. We had entered a large classroom. It was the room that was meant for anime showings every Friday night. Aka Anime Club Anime=Eunnie's Obsession. 

"We'll just see how it goes, araso?" I looked over at Eunnie, who was unsure of the whole thing. "But...what if we're in the---" 

"We're in the exact room number for the anime club!"

"But what if there are weirdos here?" Eunnie cautiously spoke. "Yah! Just sit will you?" We sat in the seats smacked in the middle of the whole room. But we chose end seats, just in case we didn't like the anime. As we had sat down, the people in the front were talking about something, but we were so unsure of what was going. Something about winning prizes and getting tickets.

"What's going on?" Eunnie looked over at me, confused. I shrugged. I really wanted to know what was going on. "How about I ask someone?" I pointed over to an average guy that was sitting an aisle away from us. Eunnie immediatly objected, "No! He looks like a weirdo!" She mumbled. I looked over at the friendly looking guy. He didn't look like a weirdo at all. He was actually the most attractive guy in this room. Actually, to be honest, when I saw him, his appearance shouted out "I'M CUTE!" His hair was nicely styled, simple but unique. 

"I don't care what you say! I'll just ask, araso?" I smiled, turning to him. And just before Eunnie stopped me, I spoke up, with a friendly smile, "Hey!"

The turned to me, and smiled, a very friendly one as well. "Yes?"

"Do you mind explaining what's going here? We came in late as you could see we're confused," I asked kindly. The guy nodded and stood up, revealing that he was a very lean tall guy. 

After he explained the tickets and prizes, he looked over at me, "What's your name?" 

I smiled and enthusiastically introduced myself, "I'm _____!" I shook his hand. He lightly chuckled.

"And you?" he looked over at Eunnie. 

"Hi. I'm Jung Eunji," she spoke up seldomly, confusing me a bit. 

"Oh! Nice to meet you two. I'm Yang Yoseob. Here you could have my tickets," he kindly gave us his tickets. "I have another meeting to go to. I hope to see you ladies sometime again." Then he walked away. And for some reason, my heart had began to beat like crazy.

"Wah! What a nice guy!" Eunnie, no...I mean Eunji, cheerfully looked at the tickets. "Yah! Why did you lie to him? You're name isn't Eunji! It's Eunnie~"

"Anniyo. It's really is Eunji."

"But...I had always called you Eunnie," I confusingly spoke, unsure what she was talking about.

"I personally don't like the name Eunji. I really like being called Eunnie. And if I hear Eunnie, I know that it's you that's calling me," she smiled at me. "Kaja! Let's wait for what's coming next." 

I nodded, unsure what she meant about allowing me to only call her Eunnie. 

*End of FlashBack*

 

Calling her Eunnie is a lot more different than I had expected. 

When I had asked her other friends about the whereabouts of Eunnie, they were a bit confused. But when I mentioned Eunji, they immediately spoke up about her. 

Was I the only one calling her Eunnie?

There are many times where we were caught up in conversations that lasted up to 4 AM in the morning! That's how close we had gotten. It was unbelievable.

Who knew that friendships could grow so fast. 

But being her friend and school weren't the only things that was on my mind. I thought about Yoseob as well. Giggling in my sleep, thinking about him. How cute he smiled.

Occasionally, when I went to anime club often, I would be able to see him. And Yoseob was always happy to see me. It always seems so nice to have him around to talk to. 

Although there are times where I find myself weirded out by his actions. 

I found out so much about him. So much, in such little time. He's actually a music major as well. He likes optimistic girls, he loves natural girls. He's a real gentlemen when it comes to treating people to stuff. He's so much smarter than you could ever think of him as. He's basically every girl's dream guy. 

When we were in anime club, he sat next to me, at a weird angle. He had propped his right elbow onto the table, but lean so far that he was in my personal bubble, where I couldn't even lean on the table. But when I wanted to, I would lean at the exact same angle, just so I wouldn't bump into him. 

As time passed, my heart began to beat for him a lot. 

 

*FlashBack*

"Why is Yoseob so cool?" I sighed, laying on Eunnie's bed. 

She smiled over at me, before flicking my head. "YAH! THAT HURTS!" I complained. "Yah! You shouldn't be daydreaming like that!" 

I laughed. "I wasn't daydreaming. I was thinking about what he had said yesterday."

"And what did he say?"

I told her almost everything that had happened yesterday, when he took me out to eat. But I didn't wanna leave her out of anything I did. So I threw in a white lie, "He said that he wished you came along. It felt bad that you didn't show up."

"Chincha?" Eunnie smiled. I nodded. I hope she doesn't catch my lie. "Ya know...can I tell you something?"

"Hm? You know you could always tell me anything," I smiled at her. She put down her pen and turned to me. "I actually think that you and Yoseob are cute together. Like really cute."

I wanted to grin like an idiot, but my personality didn't allow me to do so. I didn't want it to be so obvious that I liked him. It was still too early to like someone. So I played it off, "What? You kidding me? Pshhhh~ As if! I don't like him like that!"

"Eh?"

"Calm yourself down! I don't see him that way! He's just a friend! Just a friend~" I hope she didn't see that lie either. I wanna make sure that I really do like him, rather than telling the world.

"Oh! Chincha?" I nodded as she gasped. But she went back to studying, leaving me hanging. I somehow was suspicious of her. But I didn't call her out on it, as I hopped off her bed and went to go shower. 

*End of FlashBack*

 

There are some things that friends don't really tell each other. 

And one of the things I didn't tell her was that I really liked Yoseob. But I like him to the point where I could get shy. 

But she doesn't know that yet. Since she's the only close friend I have on campus. What do I do?

 

*FlashBack (Two Weeks Before the Finals)*

"He wants to hang out?" Eunnie had nearly choked. I nodded, finding it weird for her to do so. "Yeah. The three of us should hang out at least."

"But...I have to finish my homework!" she shouted out, as her usual personality allowed her to be. I laughed, "It's okay. We could cancel it"

"No! You two should go without me," she suggested. Then my heart sank. No! She has to come! Or else I would be all shy and nervous around him. "A-are you sure?"

"Yes! You have to go! I don't want to cancel everything. Since he's only available once in a while," Eunnie insisted. I shook my head. "I can't! Not without you!" 

"Yah! I'll be fine! I'll probably hang out with him some other time. Just not now."

"But..." I mumbled.

"Go! You can't keep him waiting! Tell me how it goes later," she waved me away as she went back to doing her homework. I pouted. This is going to be nerve recking. I nodded, "If you say so..." 

"Have fun! You should text me if you can!" Eunnie busily wrote in her journal

"I PROMISE!" I shouted, waving at her as I left the room. 

I smiled and left the place, really excited to see Yoseob. This is just so scary. I hope I could act normal around him, so it won't seem that I like him or anything.

I ran out to the front door, seeing that Yoseob was already waiting for me. He smiled as he stood up, "_______!" 

I smiled as I walked up to him. And in an instant, he pulled me into a hug, "It's been so long!" He cheerfully said, making my heart beat twice. I happily hugged him back. 

"Let's go!" he grabbed my hand pulling me to his car. My hand tingled a bit, so I pulled away. "Something wrong?" Yoseob looked back at me. I shook my head. "Sorry it's just that...uh..." 

"Let's go!" he got into the car, looking a bit hurt that I took my hand back. I felt bad, but I didn't like the tingles in my hands just now. So I got into the car.

And through the car ride, it was completely quiet. Usually, when I'm with him, I'm all perky and loud. "Is something wrong?" Yoseob cleared the silence. I looked to him, "Eh?"

"It's nothing...it's just that you're unusually quiet," Yoseob nervously chuckled. "OH! HAHAHA!" I laughed. "Sorry...it's just that...I'm a bit tired from all the studying." "Oh...that makes sense."

And throughout the whole night, we weren't talking as much as I had imagined. And most of the time, I was texting Eunnie. I felt bad for leaving Yoseob in the silence. So around 10, I stretched my arms, acting as if I was tired. "Mianhe...*yawns* I'm a bit tired. I think I should head back."

"Oh! Okay...sure..." Yoseob awkwardly said as he grabbed his keys and I followed him. When I got back, Eunnie jumped the gun on me, "What did you guys do?"

I goofily smiled, "We hung out and we talked a lot. It was great!" I sorta lied. We didn't talk much but it was a bit awkward. "He said he wished you were there with us."

"Eh? Chincha?" Eunnie lightened up. "You guys talked about me? What else did he say?" I thought about it, "He talked about his ex-girlfriends and how they left him. And how he was a very romantic guy." I smiled. That was no lie, he talked a bit about his love life. He was so dreamy when he said that. 

"Wahhh...and what do you think of him?" Eunnie bluntly asked me, surprising me a bit. I nervously chuckled, "Wh-what do you mean?" 

"Ya know...what are your feelings for him?" Eunnie curiously asked. I played it off, not wanting to show off my own feelings for him. I'm a better liar than I make myself out to be. "Like I said before, we're only friends. Seriously! I could only see him as a brother."

I pray that she calls me out on my lies. But she doesn't, surprisingly, she bluntly says, "Well I don't get you. He's a fantastic guy and he sounded like he likes you too! How could you not like such a guy?" I was a bit speechless. Could she really not tell that I liked him a lot, especially through my lies? "He's perfect! He has a smile that makes the world go round. His smart and intelligent. And his voice! It's so mesmerizing." 

My heart sank. 

She doesn't even bother to cover up her feelings at all. She shows it up so naturally that I knew her exact feelings right here and now. "Eunnie..." I mumbled. 

"Hm?" Eunnie looked up at me, revealing herself as always. 

"Do you...like him?" I asked her.

But she didn't answer. She was quiet. "You do like him," I calmly said, not wanting to overexaggerate anything. 

"WHAT!! WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT!? I didn't even say that I like him!" she quickly said.

"You didn't deny it either," I got her. She sighed and put down her pencil. "Okay...yeah I actually do like him. But just a crush though!" 

Am I really competing with Eunnie? The prettiest girl in the world?

"But I obviously can't date him! I have studies to do!" then she went back to work. I had my suspicions. For some reason, I had this regret of lying about my feelings for Yoseob. 

If you haven't noticed, but Eunnie has never dated anyone. She liked someone once, but the back story was so sad, that I couldn't even bring it up. But she had never had a boyfriend before. How could I selfishly and openly say that I like Yoseob as well. What am I going to do? Cause drama for both Eunnie and me over a guy? We aren't even sure who he likes right now. 

But I regret saying that I didn't like Yoseob one bit. 

*End of FlashBack*

 

"Do you remember me telling you that Yoseob had actually liked me first?" I complained now. I was over my tears, but now I was ranting at Doojoon. We've been walking for nearly a good hour already. But he didn't mind walking even more, for he was comforting me. 

Doojoon nodded, "Yeah. You told me. He actually had his eyes on you from the start. How you guys met at Anime Club and how he liked how happy and bubbly you were. But something happened where he switched his feeling from you to Eunji."

He hit the jackpot. That was exactly what happened.

You know how I know? Eunnie told me herself. 

 

*FlashBack (A Week into Spring Semester)*

After taking pictures with each other after the long winter break. We sat down and talked to each other.

"______..." Eunnie mumbled. I smiled at her, for a slight second I had forgotten that she was with Yoseob. "I have something to tell you..."

"Hm?" I sat next to her as she pulled her knees up to her chest. "What is it? You got a pet didn't you?" I happily smiled. 

"NO! I don't like pets~" she smiled as we both laughed. "It's something different..."

"Come on. Spit it out, or I'm going to sleep!" I complained. She laughed again. "It's actually about Yoseob..."

I froze. Oh yeah...Yoseob had asked her out while I was intensely studying for my film class. Eunnie was actually supposed to help me study for my exam, but she was out all night with him. Yoseob had chose to take Eunnie out for a 'fun' day. In the end, my gut feeling was right. Yoseob did like her better than me. 

"What about him?" I shuffled in my seat, feeling uncomfortable. 

Eunnie sighed, "He confessed to me."

"Bwoh?" I was confused. "Again?"

"It was about you. We talked about you nearly all the time in our conversations," she looked at me, caringly. Is that so? That's weird...

"What did he confess to you about?" I kept my attention on her, wondering what she had meant. 

"He confessed that...that he had liked you first. He really did," she gently said. "And I'll be honest, I thought you guys were going to be together. Despite you saying you had no feelings for him. I was rooting for you, ________. I really was," she looked up at the ceiling. 

He...he liked me? But...why didn't he confess?

"But he said that on the night that you and him just hung out...well...it got awkward for him. He had that feeling that you really didn't like him," Eunnie admitted. I mentally cursed myself. HOW COULD THAT BE!? WHAT THE HELL!?!?!?!

Yoseob got it all wrong! ALL WRONG! Aish! Why couldn't I be myself that night?

"Then he thought you weren't into him. So after the day he took me out, well...we clicked. It's all thanks to you _______. Komawo. My heart is about to burst!" she giggled. And my heart just shattered. 

I could tell her now that I had actually liked him before he liked me. But...well...that would only complicate things even more. 

So I faked smiled and looked at her, "I'm glad I was some sort of help to you!" 

"Speaking of Yoseob! Let's go get dinner with him tomorrow!" Eunnie offered. But I shook my head.

"Can't, Doojoon wanted to hang out tomorrow," I lied, again. Why is it that Doojoon is always my excuse now in days? "Oh...I see...Well I better get going! I have more unpacking to do!" Eunnie smiled as she left the room. 

*End of FlashBack*

 

"Ya know! I could have had a boyfriend if I would have told you that I liked him!" I ranted some more. 

Doojoon and I were now at his place drinking some sodas that we had bought not too long ago. 

"But you didn't tell her, did you?" Doojoon asked. I shook my head. "And why is that?"

I thought about it. Why didn't I tell her?

And suddenly, seeing Eunnie's happy face flashed in my mind. I saw how happy she was about Yoseob asking her out and how it was her first boyfriend. 

"Because...she was happy..." I softly answered. "I think I kept my feelings to myself was because...somewhere in my gut, a fear, that Yoseob actually likes Eunji. I mean it only made sense that he would like her first...right?" I looked over at Doojoon. 

He shrugged. "It's just that...I didn't wanna ruin her happiness. She looked so happy talking about Yoseob. And...and if I had admitted my feelings for Yoseob..." I took a long deep breath, already afraid of what I'll say next, "Then I'll ruin our friendship. Since we were basically liking the same guy. It'll only cause a huge mess. One of us had to let go..." My nose became runny as tears fell down my cheeks. 

Doojoon shook his head, as he pulled me into his arms, "See. You wonder why you kept your feelings. You chose friendship over love."

My breath hitched. "I. Chose. Friendship?" I mumbled carefully. "Is that why I'm a lonely single person, wondering around campus? Is that why I'm going to be forever alone, just because I didn't have the courage to tell anyone my feelings?"

"You're just too nice, _______. If I were Yoseob, I would have asked you out myself." Doojoon whispered into my eyes. I couldn't hear the sincerity in his voice, as I repeated to myself. I chose friendship over love?

What happened if I had chose love over friendship? Who's going to be with me, after Yoseob dumps me? No one. I think I had foreseen my own future already. I just haven't realized it yet. Until Doojoon pointed it out.

I pulled away from Doojoon and looked up at him. "Wae?" Doojoon looked at me, being all shy now. 

"What about you?" I asked. Doojoon looked at me confused. "Aren't you sad that you're single?" Doojoon shook his head. "Anniyo~" I was confused. "It's because I have a friend like you." That made me somewhat smile. 

Then he moved a piece of hair out of my face and gently caressed my cheek. I liked this warm feeling. "You're a nice girl. Don't think so lowly of yourself. I'm sure there's a guy, perfect enough for you. Just as perfect as Yoseob. You're just going to have the guts to tell him that you like him, next time."

"Do you have someone you like?" I curiously asked. 

Doojoon smiled as he let go of me and stood up. "I do actually. But I can't tell you!" He teased me. 

"YAH! I tell you everything! Why can't you tell me?" I complained. Doojoon smirked, hiding a secret behind that smile of his. "Not. Telling. YOU!" Doojoon flicked my forehead as he ran off. "YAH!" I yelled out running after him. 

We ran after each other, smiling and laughing, even tackling each other down. After a few more minutes of this nonsense, we finally sat down. "Yah...can't you just give me a hint as to who this girl is?"

Doojoon ruffled my hair and nodded, "She's a very clumsy girl. Very bubbly. She's very gullible too. She's a really nice girl, and cute as well. She's really outgoing, to the point you want to follow her everywhere." I nodded listening to him. "She's a very sensitive girl, so you have to be careful about what you say around her."

"Where is she right now?" I asked, enjoying listening to Doojoon, for once.

Doojoon ignored my question and continued with the discription. "She loves picking on me."

"Someone picks on you, besides me?" I was shocked. 

He chuckled, shaking his head, "She even likes the same music I like. We always talk on the phone and text as well." I thought about it. Don't I do that? Hmm...

"You like her that much huh?" I smiled at him, thoughtfully. This girl sounds really familiar for some reason. "Yeah...I like her to the point that I would run out of the dorm in my towel to run for her to comfort her. I nodded. "She sounds really nice. It seems like you'll do anything for her as well."

"Of course! That's why I like her that much!" Doojoon exclaimed. "Did you confess to her yet?"

"Nope."

"EH!? Wae?"

"Because. She's having love problems right now. She still in love with a guy that preferred her best friend over her," Doojoon sighed. I sighed. Somehow that reminded me of Yoseob. Will I be able to let him go? "I'll wait for her to fully let him go. And when she does, I'll soon confess to her."

"You're too nice! Confess to her quickly!" I demanded.

Doojoon laughed. "I will! Not now though. It's not the right timing yet."

I gently smiled at him, "Well that girl better accept your feelings! Or else I'll kick her !" I laughed. Doojoon laughed as he gave me this gaze, a completely different gaze. I couldn't tell what it could be, but it was, my guess, a loving gaze? Strange. 

-Third POV-
As the time passed, _______ and Doojoon fell asleep, in each other arms. 

 

What's more important?

Friendship?

Or Love?

Whatever you choose, it's all about fate. That's all it takes.
