 krystal's weakness

________________________________________

"We'll walk you home." Amber threw her skateboard on the ground and hopped on it. Krystal shook her head.

"It's fine. You and Luna go ahead." Krystal waved and walked away. She didn't want to be a burden to them any longer. They should do what they need to do, and not worry about her. She had told them that it had been a very tiring day and she wanted to go home.

"I'll walk you home." Krystal shook her head. Donghae had been sticking to her the whole day. Strangley, her heart started riding on roller coasters again.

"We're walking to same way anyways." He chuckled and walked a bit closer to her.

"Your house isn't this way." She mumbled. She knew his address by heart. Jessica had taken her there multiple times. Her mom had forced her to take Krystal with her.

"I'm surprised you still know where it is." He chuckled. As their arms brushed against each other, Krystal could feel herself going faint. She hasn't felt like this in years. It's rare that anyone could make her feel this way. The only person who could cause this was the one and only Donghae. The guy who dated her sister, and unofficialy dated her too. To her relief, Jessica and Donghae broke up for some unknown reason, but it never hit her with the fact that once they broke up, she would never see him again.

"It's your friend's house." He spoke up. Krystal turned her head to the left. It was one of her friend's house. She walked over to the window and peeked in. Sulli was there, all right. With a whole bunch of other guys. She knocked on the window. None of them seemed to have heard her knock. She knocked again, more furiously this time. Sulli turned to look at her, so did a couple of other guys. Sulli ran through all the guys to open the door. Now all of the guys were staring at the door to see who it was.

The door opened and Krystal looked past Sulli. Who were all these guys? Of course, Minho was here. That meant these were the tryhard jocks.

"I swear! T-this doesn't look a-as bad-" Sulli's face looked flustered as she tried to explained. She was doing a lot of hand gestures at the same time. Krystal was just staring at Sulli's shirt, without blinking. Had Sulli join the football team without telling them?  Krystal felt so backstabbed. She wasn't going to cry now, not when the football team and Donghae were looking.

"Hi Minho." Krystal smiled and waved. He smiled and waved back, inviting her to come in. Krystal rejected. She turned and walked away.

"You okay?" Donghae asked, still walking beside her. Krystal nodded.

"I'm just tired." Krystal sighed.

"What happened to the restless Krystal I know?" Donghae chuckled.

Of course, the restless Krystal. She remembered that Krystal. The one who go do reckless things like date her sister's boyfriend. Once Donghae left, Krystal decided to change. No more Donghae, no more old Krystal. But now he's back, and she didn't know what to do. They finally arrived at her house. She rung the doorbell. The door opened, revealing her mom.

"I made lunch for you, dear." Her mom walked back into the kitchen as Krystal slid out of her flats. She noticed Donghae was entering her house.

"Why are you inside my house?" She asked. Her question was answer as soon as the door opened again.

"Hey!" It was Jessica. She ran over to Donghae, wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.

"Forgot to tell you," Donghae broke away, "we got back together." He face Krystal. At that moment, she had a stir of feelings that was unrecognizable. He face Jessica again and they continued their make-out session.

It looks like it was going to be a long day for Krystal.
