Pride & Insecurity

Don't Go...

 

 

 


 

 

     "Oh 'deer'!" Sehun exclaimed with a shocked and annoyed tone.

 

     "H-huh? What happened, Sehun-ah?" Baekhyun asked curiously.

 

     "Bedsheets! Erggh!"

 

     "Huh? What's with the bedsheets?"

 

     "Huff! Hyung, I hate myself!"

 

     "Ehh?? Why? I don't understand."

 

     Sehun explained what happened and Baekhyun felt apologetic. He blames himself from taking the plushie from the table. Now, Sehun doesn't know how to deal with the current uation. He just continues to cuss incoherent words and Baekhyun can't help but pout.

 

     Later, Suho and Chanyeol arrived at the cafeteria. Through Baekhyun's text messages, the two knew what happened and that became the reason why the two rushed to the said place. Chanyeol and Baekhyun hoped for Suho's skills.

 

     "No way I'm gonna do that!" Sehun bursted. All eyes were set on him and after realizing, he bowed down in embarrassment. 

 

     "Phew... Then, you have a better plan perhaps, don't you?" 

 

     "Y-y-y-yeah. I-I-I-I..." He stuttered. Joonmyeon raised his left eyebrow. 

 

     "Phew. Fine. I don't have one. But... I j-just can't!" He continued to say he surrenders.

 

     "Really? Why so?"

 

     "Because...B-because... I don't know! I just can't apologize to that doe-eyed feminine guy!" He reacted childishly."

 

     "Sigh... Because of pride and insecurity, I suppose..." Sehun just nodded sideways in disagreement.

 

     "Sehun..." Baekhyun spoke. Suho looked at him.

 

     "Baekhyun, come with him. Also apologize to that boy." -Suho

 

     "H-huh?! Why me?!" He reacted.

 

     "Because you helped Sehun do things to that poor boy. It's like bullying in some angles."

 

     "I-I-I-" Baekhyun stuttered. Suho cut off his words. *

 

     "Wow!" He said in a louder voice. It shocked the two while Chanyeol just twitched. "You can't do it because of pride & insecurity. You know your mistakes and you don't want to be badly embarrassed.  You're thinking that if you'll apologize, the boy would count that as a point or an advantage. Are my conclusions, right? Why!? Those were your faults! Why not have humility instead of pride? Why not have friendship instead of insecurity? Why not, Sehun & Baekhyun? Why not?" Suho emphatically expressed his views.

 

     "You're right, hyung... I apologize." Baekhyun said in a mellow voice. And Chanyeol rubbed his back gently.

 

     "Not to me but to that boy."

 

     "Yes. Sehun, let's-" He was cut off due to Sehun's sudden action.

 

     "Excuse me. I'm leaving." He quickly stood up, took his bag and walked out.

 

     "Sehun!" Suho called out his attention. It's not a shout, just a loud call. Sehun paused to hear what Suho had to say.

 

     "Pride... is the only poison... that when swallowed..., gives cure..." Suho said with a gentle voice. Sehun looked back over his shoulders with a blank expression. He turned back again and continued to walk out.

 

     "Sigh... Did I overdo it?" Suho asked, feeling apologetic. He thought, his words were more like a scold to Sehun. He didn't mean to. Yes, that's what he thought. *

 

     Sehun walked out with an empty tummy. He's too pissed to go back to the cafeteria or reenter the canteen. He went up to the rooftop. He wanted fresh air for moments and he found it there. He took a view of the school and deeply he breathed in and then out. For the time he's been pensive, he gained some sort of peace of mind which let him think of what his Suho-hyung told him. And for that same time, he haven't noticed that he's not alone.

 

     He heard that someone sneezed. He averted his gaze from the view of the school and looked back. He saw the back of the head of a boy behind some wooden crates that were settled several meters away. He decided to come near to it, curious of who the owner of those glossy black locks is. As the distance got shorter and shorter, he's having a clearer and clearer view of the boy's head. When he's already leaning onto the wooden crates with his elbows, he found out that the boy was having his lunch.

 

     "Boo!" He shocked the boy.

 

     "Ahh!" Shrieked the boy who badly twitched and almost choked himself with the food in his mouth. Sehun just laughed at it.

 

     "Owssh! You scared me! Huff! Huff!" He was breathing heavily. His eyes were very widely opened.

 

     "Oh. Wait. Calm down or else your eyes will pop out." Sehun replied as a half-meant joke. The boy looked down, squinted his eyes and deeply sighed in relief. Sehun saw the boys eyes but he thought that it's still big despite that it was being squinted.

 

     "Who are you? And how dare you to scare the out of someone who was eating?" He spoke.

 

     "Ah. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I just noticed that you're in so much focus while eating and I find it cute."

 

     "What!? Of course, I'm eating! Why? Are you not that type of person who focuses on what he's/she's eating? And wait, me? Cute? Tch!" The boy reasoned out.

 

     "Hmmm.... Maybe yes, maybe no.... and... yes, you're cute." He answered both questions.

 

     "Oh. Good." Said the boy sarcastically.

 

     "By the way, the answer to your question earlier, I'm Oh Sehun. And you are....?"

 

     "Kyungsoo. Do Kyungsoo." He said that while he's looking down and scratching his head gently. When he raised his head up, he saw Sehun's hand stucking out like he wanted friendship.

 

     "I'm sorry from before but could we be friends?" Sehun asked sincerely.

 

     He doesn't know why he's like that or why he wants friendship with that Kyungsoo guy. Maybe because he find him cute or maybe he's already making a move that has something to do with Mr. Blondie. Well, we could also say that his actions were just some side effects of that peace of mind he gained earlier. "Why not have friendship instead of insecurity?" That could be something that kept on repeating on Sehun's head. Let's say, Sehun doesn't want to let history repeat itself for now. Specifically, the event where he acted so snarky to Mr. Blondie when they first met which caused multiplying troubles like of that what he faced earlier in the canteen.

 

     Kyungsoo took a deep breath, thought of it for a while and soon, accepted Sehun's offer of  friendship  They shook hands and they both smiled to each other. For sure, if Sehun's friends found this out, they'll treat it as another miracle. Well, Sehun is changing slowly due to some uncertain reasons.

 

     The shaking of hands ended and Kyungsoo led the younger to his secret place. It's just a space covered with wooden crates to hide his small figure. A picnic mat was on the floor and lying on it was Kyungsoo's bag.

 

     "Hey. Are you done with your lunch already?"

 

     "Err...Y-yeah.." Sehun responded. Kyungsoo was about to believe him but his stomach let out an audible growl.

 

     "Hah! Liar!" Kyungsoo blurted out. The other just whistled as if nothing happened.

 

     "Here. Let's eat. I bring two lunch boxes everyday because sometimes, I get bullied and they take away my lunch. They would just return the empty lunch box if they're done."

 

     "Ah. I see. Thanks for this. Hmm... Why not come with me and my friends? You'll have a lesser chance of being bullied, I guess." 

 

     "Are you sure? You can't feel what a loner feels." 

 

     "I'm returning your question to you. Are you sure? I've been a loner before." 

 

     "You've been?! With that looks? Oh c'mon. You're kidding me." 

 

     "No, I'm not kidding. Being a loner is hard sommetimes. Because you have to do and overcome things on your own. You can't rely on someone but to yourself only. And you can't also ask for help. But sometimes, it's good. Although you don't enjoy much, you could enjoy things on your own. You appreciate things others don't. You see sides others can't. You live in a way others won't. Also, you have a lot of time to think and you cherish things while being pensive."

 

     "Phew. Yeah. You're right. Well, you really have been a loner. You know how it feels too well." And Sehun smiled at him.

 

     "So, would you come with me on Monday lunch? I want to introduce you to my friends. They've been the reason why I somehow manage to continue the smile I've started at home."

 

     "At home? What do you mean?"

 

     "Uhh, it's a long story. I'll tell you if we have the time. So, wanna go on Monday?"

 

     "Ahh... Okay. Let's see how it will go."

 

     "Good thing! I'll pick you up here. Monday lunch."

 

     They agreed on it and they ate together. They're getting to know each other and they're starting to become good friends. 

 

--- 

 

     "Chanyeol, I feel guilty..." Suho started.

 

     "Why noona?" The shorter looked at him with half-covered eyes.

 

     "Shoot. You're nice." The older said sarcastically. The other just grinned, showing a derp face.

 

     "Phew... I think, I did a mistake."

 

     "Why? Maybe that's just a side effect of your guilt. I think, you did nothing wrong, hyung."

 

     "Really? You think so?"

 

     "Yes. They're not deprived of your advices & warnings. You're almost like a parrot or a tape recorder repeating your words."

 

     "But I wonder if they ever let those words come into their minds. It's like they never understand and I guess, they will never also understand what I did earlier."

 

     "Oh c'mon. I know that they'll understand. You're just considering their own good. Especially to Sehun. I know, although you won't tell it, you have a crush on our maknae. Am I right?"

 

     "Ehhh?!" he reacted with big eyes depicting a shocked expression. Add the baby pink stains on his cheeks to the description.

 

     "Don't worry. I'll keep it as a secret." And the derp face continues to beam.

 

     "Ahh.. It's not that I have a thing for him. It's just that I find him very cute and I adore that. It's just a crush and I try not to let it go deeper."

 

     "One thing might lead to another, hyung. Be careful."

 

     "Oh. Just be honest and frank if you have a crush on him, too. Just tell me if you don't want me to have a crush on him and you want to have him solo. I have that feeling at times. Watch out, others might be hurt." Then they both laughed.

 

     "Fool."

 

     "Scrap that. Thanks, by the way. You really are the Happy Virus."
