What Life Is All About

“What?” The guy said as he took a place beside her. The girl who’s having an annoyed expression on her face quickly moved her chair away from the guy’s chair. She could heard the guy chuckling lightly as he saw her action.  Gosh, she looks cute even with that annoyed expression .

            “Hey Chorong, can you just chill?” The guy said calmly without feeling anything. Chorong gritted her teeth, glarig at the guy beside her. Well, he’s lucky that we’re in the library right now. If not, he would be dead in her hand.

            “So, how about we start the discussion about our project?” The guy trying to have conversation with her. Chorong remained silent, not even have guts to talk with the guy. After a few seconds, the guy sighed heavily.

            “This girl really drives me crazy,” Woohyun thought while mentally cursed himself for choosing this girl as his partner. Well, he didn’t think twice when he chose Park Chorong as his partner because there’s something about the girl which made him attracted. And he needs to find the reason.

            “Fine,” He muttered. “Let’s do it with your way.” He suggested, hoping that his suggestion would made the girl talk to him. Chorong cleared before taking a notebook from her bagpack.

            “Alright. I’m in.” She said shortly, scribbling something on the page of her notebook. Woohyun was totally relieved as he heard her, finally she’s giving in.

            “Great then. So… What’s your suggestion?”

Chorong didn’t answer the guy’s question. Instead, she handed him her notebook and showed him the page that she just scribbled. Woohyun was kinda amused as he looked at the page.

            “Are you serious? You want to do clothes designing?” Woohyun asked seriously. He didn’t even like the idea since he prefers architechture-illustration more. Chorong scoffed as she heard him.

            “It’s fine if you don’t like it,” She said shortly in unamused voice. He asked for her suggestion and she just suggested as he wanted. The surrounding become intense as both of them didn’t talk. Both of them are literally having a mental-war with each other.

            “This is crazy! I don’t know anything about fashion designing. Oh, ! What I’m going to do now?” Woohyun cursed in his mind.

“Oh come on, man. Just say it.” He said to himself as he took a glance of Chorong who was sitting beside him, probably having a calm expression plastered on her face.

            “Hey, let’s do another thing.”

Chorong raised her eye brows, mouthing a ‘what’ towards the guy beside her. Woohyun cleared his throat before he spoke, “I think, architechture-illustration is better,” He finally said his decision.

“Pfft.” Chorong shortly replied as she made an unsatisfied face. From her expression, Woohyun already acknowledge that the girl didn’t agree with his suggestion. Gosh, she’s driving him crazy, like seriously! He never meets any girl who is hard to be handled other than Park Chorong. For God’s sake, he regretted with his decision by choosing her as his partner.

“Then, what do you want?” He almost shouted. Chorong glared at him, not even answering. Silence was filled between them. Just then, Chorong finally stood up from her chair and in a fast pace she grabbed all her books and stuffed them in her bagpack. Woohyun drew a few wrinkles on his forehead as he saw the girl’s action. Is she leaving?

As Chorong have a grip on her bagpack, she turned to Woohyun, “You know what, I don’t think that both of us are ready for this discussion.” She said sharply.

“Let’s cancel this discussion and meet up when we’re ready.” Woohyun couldn’t even say anything. He just stay still, not even dare to answer. It was his fault though because he’s the one who really want to paired up with her for this project. Yet, they couldn’t even make up their discussion well.

“You know what, since you’re the one who chose me as your partner, I hope would bear with my attitude.” Woohyun shivered as he heard the girl’s cold voice. She sounded as if she was giving him a warning. With that, Chorong left Woohyun at their table.

Woohyun in the other hand kept releasing a heavy sigh. He felt like as if he just defeated. Defeated by a girl. And he hates it. What’s wrong with you, Park Chorong?

“Serve you right, Nam Woohyun.” Chorong muttered as she went through the exit door of the library. She hoped that the guy would change his partner after this. Like seriously, she couldn’t even bear herself for being paired with a cassanova even it’s a school project. To her, they’re not even suit to be called as humankind in this Earth.

‘Click! Click! Click!’

“Hey!” Naeun shouted at that guy. The guy chuckled lightly as he heard the girl squealed. Slowly, he made his way towards the girl at the school’s corridor with a smile on his face. His right hand was gripping the camera tightly.

“You’re taking my pictures without even asking,” She said while having an unsatisfied face as the guy approached her. “Do I have to?” The guy said jokingly. The girl glared at him with her cold eyes. “Fine, I’m sorry Naeun.” The guy apologized.

“Well, it’s just for fun since the photography club members are having a competition right now.” He continued as he explained the reason why he’s taking her pictures. Naeun nodded slightly as she heard the guy’s reasons.

“But Myungsoo, you don’t have to take my pictures.” The girl said again which made the guy rolled his eyes.

“Why did you forbid me so much from taking your pictures?” He asked as a concern. Naeun clasped her lips. Not even knowing what to answer. It’s not that she doesn’t like Myungsoo took her pictures but it makes her felt quite shy. She was afraid if the pictures didn’t turn out beautiful when Myungsoo checked on it. Gosh, what’s wrong with me?

“Um… Actually, it’s….” Naeun couldn’t even continue her words as Myungsoo once again clicked his camera and took a picture of her.

‘Click!’

“Hey!” She shouted again, trying to steal the camera from the guy. But she couldn’t even reach it since Myungsoo is swifter to hide it behind his back. “Like seriously, stop it Myungsoo.” She begged. Myungsoo shook his head jokingly which made the girl pouted.

“Aww, look at you. You look like a kid when you pout like that.” Myungsoo said while letting out a light chuckle. Naeun scoffed as she heard him. She could feel that her cheeks were burning up and she was hardly enduring it. He’s driving me crazy.

            “Last warning Myungsoo. Don’t do it.” She said sternly, a serious expression was plastered on her face. “Alright.” Myungsoo finally said in defeat and decided to quit. Well, quit his activity for a while actually.

            “Gosh, it would be embrassing if you present all the pictures during your photography club session. And I would be embarrassed too, you know.”

            Myungsoo laughed a little, trying to console the girl that nothing would affect her because of the pictures. “Chill, it’s not that I’m going to present them during the session.” He said. Naeun took a glance of the guy who is having a smile on his face. Damn, he’s cute.

            “But then why did you take my pictures? It’s not that I’m a famous person or what,” Naeun said, playing the hem of her skirt. Myungsoo let out a sigh. He’s thinking hard about searching the answer for the girl’s question. He must make sure that his real intention is hidden from the girl. It would be a trouble if she knew his real intention. And it would make it harder for him to know the girl more. According to Eunji, Naeun is hard to be reached by a guy because she often avoid herself from befriends with them. That’s why he felt so lucky to be closer to her.

            “Like I said, it’s just for fun. Don’t worry, I’ll send you the pictures to you if you want to,” He tried to console her with his brilliant suggestion. “You will?” She asked for confirmation. Myungsoo nodded his head as a sign of agreement.

            “Alright then. But you have to make sure that you’ll delete my pictures in your camera.” Naeun said pleadingly. Myungsoo didn’t answer. He couldn’t even promise that because he’s absolutely not going delete those pictures. Never.

            “Myungsoo? You will delete them right, don’t you?” The girl asked again. Myungsoo cleared his throat. “Well….”

            “It depends on me. I will delete your pictures if I want to.” Myungsoo said.

            “I take that as a ‘yes’.” Naeun said as she made her steps away. She was late for her Art class and she need to rush. Gosh, please blame that Kim Myungsoo guy for making her late! Myungsoo just watched Naeun who was walking to her class. What a beautiful creature she is. Once again, Myungsoo adjusted his camera at the level of his eyes and…

            ‘Click!’

Myungsoo drew a grin on his lips as he take a look of his masterpiece. This time without being caught, he managed to take the picture of his so-called-first-love. Perhaps, it’s true.

“Sunggyu-sshi?” Eunji almost stumbled upon the school’s gate when she saw the guy outside his car. “Is he picking Myungsoo up? Aww, what a good cousin.” She thought as Sunggyu threw her an eye smile. Of course she would smile back to him. Well, it’s a bit shocking for her since they didn’t about five days after the last meeting.

“Hey, how are you?” Sunggyu greeted her as she approached him. He looks handsome in his corporate attire . Wow, he definitely looks like a CEO of a big company. By just looking at him, you would know.

“Yeah, I’m good. Anyway, are you picking Myungsoo up?” Eunji said. Sunggyu chuckled a little as he heard the girl’s assumption. Jung Eunji, how cute.

“If you are, then I think you should just go home because he’s having a session with his photography club members.” Eunji continued which made the guy nodded his head. Eunji cleared and looked away as she felt nervous. Duhh, why did I feel like this?

Sunggyu looked at the girl with a grin on his face. Eunji looks innocent and youthful in her school uniform. Thinking of that, it made him feel bad because of the marriage. She was supposed to live her days as a teenager peacefully but then the marriage hit her so hard. What a strong girl.

“Ehem.” Eunji coughed a little. She could feel her cheeks were heating up as she realized that Sunggyu is staring at her. Gosh, how she wish that she could hide her face right now. “God, why must I met up with him today?” She mentally said to herself. The surrounding became awkward as both of them stayed silent.

“Um.. By the way, I’m not picking Myungsoo up,” Sunggyu suddenly said to brush away the awkwardness between them. Eunji raised her brows, frequently thinking about the reason why Sunggyu is here.

“Then, what are you doing here?” She finally decided to ask instead of making her own assumption. Sunggyu clasped his lips nervously.

“Well… I’m picking you up actually.” He stated. Eunji was totally shocked as she heard him. Why must he picks her up? Do they need to go to somewhere?

“Why?” Eunji asked, confused. Sunggyu didn’t answer. Instead, he walked towards the passenger door and opened it.

“We need to head to somewhere. Just follow me,” He said with a smile plastered on his face. Eunji was not sure at first, but then she decided to follow the guy. “It’s not like he would do anything bad to me right?” She thought to herself. As she agreed, she occupied the passenger seat which is beside the driver’s seat. After Sunggyu closed the door, she mouthed her ‘thank you’ from the car’s mirror. Sunggyu smiled as a reply.

“So, are you ready?” Sunggyu suddenly asked as he fit himself at the driver’s seat. Eunji looked at him with a confused expression plastered on her face. “Ready for what?”

“We’re going to try the wedding attire today,” Sunggyu said which earned a shocking look from Eunji. “Today!?” She shouted hysterically. Oh my god, she couldn’t even believe that it would happen this fast! Like seriously, they just met last five days and now… They’re going to have a try on their wedding attire. This is damn crazy!

Sunggyu let out a heavy sigh. He felt sorry towards her, but he didn’t have any choice. All of the things were already arranged by their parents. “Yeah, I know that it’s a bit shocking for you. I’m sorry.” Sunggyu apologized.

Eunji leaned her head over the car’s cushion. Her head almost exploded and she felt like crying. But after hearing Sunggyu’s apologize, she felt better. It’s not like she’s the only one who carry the load. Sunggyu too. It’s tough for him too. So she had decided to just go on with the thing and try her best to not being selfish. Slowly, she closed her eyes and relaxed herself. Even she’s not opening her eyes, but she can feel that Sunggyu’s eyes are definitely on her. This made her blushed a bit. What a caring guy he is.

            “Come on, Sunggyu-sshi. We will be late if you don’t start to drive now.” Eunji said in a calm tone. Hoping that it would make the guy relieved a bit. Sunggyu started to drive as the girl wished. Yet, his eyes never leave the figure beside him.

“How can you be so strong like that?” He thought while taking a glance of that girl, Jung Eunji. He was very amused. He never meets any girl who is strong other than her. Where did she found her strength?

“God, I’m lucky to have someone strong like you,” He said in his mind, still looking at the girl while driving carefully. Deep in his heart, he’s hoping that he manage to take care of her well after they said their marriage vows. Only a month left. And after that, they will officially declared as husband and wife.

“Gosh!” Woohyun grunted as he threw himself on the sofa, definitely frustrated because of thinking. He couldn’t even think right. How he wish that he could throw himself into the sea right now.

“Dude, what’s wrong huh?” The tall guy who just entered the living greeted his angry-looking friend. He took a seat beside Woohyun who is definitely not in the mood. Woohyun just rolled his eyes and ignored the latter’s question.

“Looks like Nam Woohyun already found his match,” The guy said sarcastically which earned a gentle-kick from Woohyun. The latter let out a light chuckle which caused Woohyun frowned. “Gosh, this is funny,” Woohyun scoffed, trying to calm himself.

“Yeol, cut that crap off. You’re not helping me a bit.” Woohyun said in a stern tone. Sungyeol give his friend a michevious smile, totally enjoying the loss of Nam Woohyun. Well, actually he felt quite sorry for his friend but then… No, Woohyun really needs someone to ditch off his cassanova personality.

“Wow, she’s amazing.” Sungyeol said, sipping his coffee. Woohyun glared at the tall guy. “For God’s sake, if you’re not my friend I’m going to kill you right now, Lee Sungyeol.” Woohyun cursed which earned a big laugh from Sungyeol.

“Thank goodness that I’m your friend.”

Woohyun rolled his eyes and turned away. He’s been suffering from headache just because of one ‘the-world-most-stuborn-girl-ever’. He didn’t have to mention her name anymore. It’s obviously, Park Chorong. She’s driving him crazy again and again.

            “Like seriously, I need your help Yeol,” Woohyun begged while ruffling his hair into mess. He couldn’t even think of any method anymore. That girl is so different and too hard to be handled. His cassanova skills won’t work on her.

            Sungyeol placed his mug on the table, turning to his friend. To be honest, he doesn’t even know how to help the latter beside him.

            “I don’t even know why I attracted to her,” Woohyun mumbled in sigh. Sungyeol raised his brows after he listened to his friend’s last words. Attracted? Nam Woohyun is currently attracted to a girl? No, that’s impossible! Gosh, looks like Woohyun really have a serious problem this time.

            “Hey, you know what… I never heard that you attracted into someone so much. Dude, you’re in love.” Sungyeol jumped into his conclusion. Woohyun drew a few wrinkles on his forehead. In love?

            “No, Yeol. That’s impossible. I’m not. Love didn’t even exists.” Sungyeol shook his head slightly. What a stuborn friend he had. Seems like Woohyun is still holding to his past memory. Memory when he believes in love and the moment he decided to never trust love. To Woohyun, love is like a poison.

            “Sooner or later you will realize it, man. Just forget what happened in the past and move on,” Sungyeol adviced him and gave his friend a pat on the shoulder before make his steps out of the living room. Hearing about ‘the past’ makes Woohyun heart aches slightly. He would never forget it. The moment when he decided to not believe in love. But he could feel that love is chasing him right now. Is it possible for me to believe in love?

            Woohyun shooked off his head for a few times. No, it can’t be. He’s not going to be the victim of love again. He already promised himself that he will not even believe in love after what happened during the past years. Never.
