Chapter 27

Always There For you

“Is everything alright?” Jisun unnie asked.

“Unnie… Unnie!” Hansun called my name.

“Huh?” I was shocked. “You’re calling me?”

“Jaelin, you seems like something’s bothering you. What’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I’m fine.” I said.

“Really? Look at what you are doing.” Sunbae said.

I look down, oh ! I was pouring coffee and got carried away by my thoughts till I spilled them all over the floor.

“Sorry! I’ll go get the mop.” I said and went to the kitchen.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you?” Sunbae asked, following me into the kitchen.

“Nothing, really. I’m fine.” I said and smiled.

“You don’t seem like you’re fine.” He said.

“Probably just worried about school stuff.” I said.

“Hmm…”

“What? You don’t believe me?” I asked.

“Yeah, I don’t believe you.” He said.

“I’m fine! Really!”

“Come on, let’s go out.” Sunbae said, pulling my hand.

“Where? We’re at working hours.” I said.

“Let’s run away! Don’t let Jisun know.” He gave me a playful smirk.

“No! Unnie will be very angry! She might kill us both!” I said.

“Come on! Let’s go do something fun.” He said and pulled me out through the back door.

I tried to pull him back to the shop but he is too strong for me to pull him back. He bought me to the bus stop and sat down.

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“Waiting for the bus.” He said.

“Where are we going?” I asked.

“Anywhere. Where do you want to go?” He asked.

“I don’t know! You’re the one that pulled me out.” I said.

“Let me think…. Hmm…. Got it!” He said and stood up.

“What?”

“The bus is here.” He said and pulled me up the bus.

I glared at him the entire journey. Where are we? But he gave me a big playful and mischievous grin and said nothing. I look out the window and I was shocked.

“Sunbae, where…?

“We’re going to the amusement park!” He said.

“Why?” I asked.

“No reason. I haven’t had the chance to come here since…. I don’t know, since high school?” He said. “And, for today, can you call me Minjae oppa instead of sunbae?”

“What? No! That’s weird!” I said.

“Come on… Just one day.” He said.

“Fine… But just today.” I said.

“Yay!”

“Oh right. Sun… I mean, Minjae oppa, what if L’s fans spot us? There will be scandals spreading if they see us. They’ll think I’m dating you.” I said.

“Don’t worry, I have figured that out. Just say that I am your brother.” He said.

“My brother?”

“Yeah, that’s why I wanted you to call me oppa instead.” He said and smiled.

“Minjae oppa… Gomawo…”

“If you want to thank me, treat me ice cream.” He said with a cheeky smile.

“Fine…” I said and smiled.

“I was thinking, to ride that roller coaster or to ride that Ferris wheel.”

“Hmm… I vote for roller coaster.” I said and pulled him along.

“Hey, Jaelin… Are you sure?”

“You’re scared?” I asked.

“Not that… Just this seems higher than the last time I came here.” Minjae oppa said.

“Yeah, they have upgraded it.” I said.

“What?”

“Let’s go!” I said and pulled him to the line.

While we were waiting, I saw some girls whispered something to each other and they seemed excited. Maybe they think Minjae oppa is good looking and wanted to get his attention?

“Umm… Excuse me… Are you L oppa’s girlfriend, Jung Jaelin?” One of them asked.

“I’m not…” I replied.

“I’m sure you are!” The other girl said.

 “Can we take a picture with you?” They asked.

“Yeah, sure…” I said.

They pass the camera to Minjae oppa, who stood there and looked so blur.

“Okay, 1, 2, 3!”

“Thanks!” They said.

“Umm… May I know who this is? Are you cheating on L oppa?” One of them asked.

What in the world?

“He’s my brother. My real brother.” I said.

“Annyeong, I am Jung Minjae.” Minjae oppa said. It’s weird that he changed his name from Park to Jung.

“Ah… Where is L oppa? Is he here with you? Where is he hiding?” They asked.

“He’s working very hard for Inspirits now.” I said.

“So he’s not here?”

“Nope, I think he’s in the practice room now. Practicing hard.”

“Ahh… Anyways, gomawo unnie!” They said and run away.

“Wow, seems like you’ve become a celebrity too.” Mnjae oppa said.

“Ani, they just want to show off that they saw INFINITE L’s girlfriend.” I said.

“Why did you deny it when they asked you the first time?” Minjae oppa asked.

“…….” I kept quiet.

“Arasso, tell me when you’re ready.” He said.

“Thank you…”

“For now, let’s forget everything and have fun arasso?”

“Nae!” Arasso!” I said and smiled.

A few rides later…

“I think I’m getting a little too old for this.” Minjae oppa said, sitting down at the bench.

“Come on! We still haven’t gone on that ride!”

“At least let me rest for a while!” Too late! I was already pulling him to the queuing line.

After all those crazy rides, we finally settle down for dinner at a barbeque shop.

“Ah… It sure is tiring…” I said while waiting for the beef to be cooked.

“You’re the one running all around and going on all the rides!” Minjae oppa said.

“Well… I am excited…” I said and smiled.

We ate our food in silence for quite a while… Guess we’re pretty hungry.

“About what you asked in the morning…” I said.

“What did I asked?”

“About L…”

“Yeah… What about him?”

I told him about his CEO and that night that I wanted to end it with L.

“I only have one question for you….”

“Yeah?” I asked.

“Do you still love him?” He asked.

“I… Of course I do!” I replied.

“Then tell him the truth!”

“Oppa… What if they end his contract? What if they fire him?”

“They won’t. The last I checked, if they terminate his contract, he can file a law suit… And besides, L is the face of the group. He’s probably the most famous member, they won’t do that.” He said.

“But I can’t face him anymore…”

“If he really loves you… He can leave his idol life just to be with you.”

“Thanks Minjae oppa… You are the best!” I said, giving him a smile.

“So, are we eating or do I eat all this by myself?”

“Hey, that’s mine!” I said and pick up the largest piece of beef.

“Come on! I was aiming for that!” He said and I just gave him a mehrong!
