Chapter 22 : I'm so thankful for them!
A Geek's CharmOkay, we broke up. We broke up. We just fakingly broke up. I can't help it. I can't help it but cry. When our tea meeting ended, we went straight back to school and pretended as if nothing happened. Well, we're supposed to act like that. We're just friends, or are we even friends? What am I saying? This is all my fault. I shouldn't have even had feelings for him. I should like Gongchan.
The day went well besides the broke up which made me clearly down. A few times, Namjoo would asked me what happened. I would deny that something's bothering me, and I know she knows there's something wrong. As I entered the door, mom greeted me and I really tried my best to fake a smile.

"Look, if you're comfortable about telling us the problem, we'll listen.. But if you're not.. It's okay." Dad said. Woah.
"Well, we broke up." I spilled it out. I saw my dad's face went more serious. This will really disaapoint him to I took another path.
"But, we're friends. Really friends. We managed to work it out, we'll still study together from time to time and hang out. We'll just not be 'romantic' to each other. I guess, we didn't really had the spark." I sighed. Really sighed. "I was just sad that I'll probably miss, you know, us...." I looked at them, and I can see that they're not so serious anymore.
"You know, I hope you'll get things straight with that guy. CNU is a fine man. I like him and I was really excited with such a music geek dating my daughter. I thought he was perfect. Not thinking about marriage though, but he seemed really into you and I really thoug
