[Series] What made you smile?

 

The next and next day, I bring Yoseob to the orphanage house. He grows closer with the kids. The kids like him so much because his face looks like a kid. I guess he’s already turning to his old self or his new self. Ah I don't know. Seeing him smiling and laughing really make me happy. I don't even know why but every time I see those, I found myself smiling like an idiot. He gives me a happy vibe.

"I see you have a lot of fun with the kids," I say, taking a seat beside him on a bench while watching the kids playing around the playground. 

Yoseob's lips curve a smile, "Quite. Thanks to you."

"Ah, it's nothing really," I reply, smiling sheepishly.

"Can you hand me a piece of the cookies?" he says, pointing a plate of cookies on the table. I take a piece and hand it to him.

Accidentally, tips of our fingers touched. I feel a wave of electricity runs through my body. Quickly I pull my hand away after successfully pass the cookies. Yoseob does the same. We stare into each other eyes for a while before looking away.

I feel my face hot.

"This cookie is yummy," Yoseob compliments, breaking silence between us.

I blush, feeling my whole face is getting hotter.

"Why my baby Sunni is so happy? You seem glowing lately," Nanny asks, sitting opposite me at the dinner table.

"Uh glowing?" I giggle. "Nanny, you're funny!"

Nanny smiles. "I'm not lying. Something special happened? Want to tell me anything?" she asks, giving a curious look.

"Something special? Um, no. Tell you anything? Um, no too I think," I scrunch my face, thinking hard about anything to tell.

"Eyy, don't lie. You have something," Nanny raises an eyebrow. I frown.

Something? Like what?

"Anything boy related?" she out of sudden asks.

My eyes slightly widen. Without my conscious, my face starts to heat up, blushing. Only one person appears in my mind when Nanny mentioned 'boy'. He is Yang Yoseob. I don't even know why he appeared.

"Aigoo, you're blushing now. It's true, right?" Nanny teases, giggling. I bite my lower lips, embarrass.

"No Nanny. It's not like that," I pout. "It is just...I don't know why but he's always appeared in my mind. Whenever I see him, I'm so happy. Can you explain that?"

I seriously have no idea why I'm being like that. Nanny grins widely.

"Aigoo, you're a grown girl now."

My eyebrows furrow, confused. Tilting my head slightly to the left,

"What do you mean by that?"

Nanny chuckles. "What I mean is...you like him," she pinches my nose lightly and leaves me dumbfounded.

I'm...what?!

 

~~~

 

"I don't like him that way, right?" I try to convince myself.

But....what if Nanny's words were right? No no, it's not right! But...still. Ugh, this is so frustrating.

"Miss Park," my driver calls.

"Uh, what is it?" I ask confusedly.

"We've reached school," he replies, looking slightly weird at me.

"Ah, okay." Getting out from the car, I see Yoseob is walking toward me with his sweet smile. All of sudden, I feel butterflies in my stomach.

Aish, why I'm being like this. Calm down Sunni.

"Hi Sunni!" Yoseob greets me.

"Hi Yoseob!" I reply, trying to be cheerful like usual. Yoseob's face turns sour.

"Are you okay? You look quite pale," he says worriedly, putting his back hand on my forehead. I blink in surprise. Once again I feel a wave of electricity runs through my body.

"I-I'm okay," I manage to say, slightly stammering. Aishh, why I even stammered.

Yoseob pulls away his hand and smiles.

"Thank God you're not sick."

I grin awkwardly. I don't even know why but I really want to ask this question.

"What if I'm really sick?" I look at him.

"Of course I'll be worried sick," he answers, ruffling my hair. "You're my friend."

I feel hurt hearing that. I feel like my heart crashes into pieces. So, all this while, he assumes me as a friend only. Why I even think about this.

I don't like him that way...right?
