Chapter Twenty-Five
Fragile Hearts
Finally! Her exams are finally over and Jieun fought the urge to scream on top of her lungs. She was finally free and the only exam left is her college entrance exam but she wasn't going to stress herself over it now. She has two weeks of holiday and no one can stop her from spending every second of it. Everyone began exchanging hugs and goodbyes and she smiled politely to her classmates that waved before leaving the exam hall.
"There she is!" Jaekyung slung her left arm around Jieun's shoulder and hugged her. "I can't wait for our vacation. I have so many things planned out for us" She blabbered, her excitement was evident. "Can't wait" She replied sarcastically while rolling her eyes. She was actually looking forward to the vacation just as much, she smiled softly at the thought of spending more time with Myungsoo and the rest.
Speaking of Myungsoo...
Jieun turned around to look for him and of course, his table just had to be surrounded by his fans. "Ugh, I don't even know why those clowns bother. He's obviously not interested. Look at the way he's smiling. Such a fake, can't belive they haven't noticed" Her best friend muttered under her breath, cringing in disgust. "I'm going to look for Woohyun, you should save him. See you in two days, Jieun. Don't bring your ugly swimming suit!" Jaekyung warned, before smacking Jieun's and walking out of the hall.
Don't mess with Jaekyung when it comes to fashion, Jieun bet she would skin her alive if she ever brought a swimming suit similar to it along with her. I should stop by the mall before going home. But she had to do some saving first.
She took a deep breath before making her way to Myungsoo's table, "You can do this" She mumbled countless of times, her palms starting to sweat. The last thing she wanted was to have his fans have something against her but the thought of him being with them didn't seem like an option either. Thankfully Myungsoo stood up and made his way towards her, brushing all his fangirls aside.
"Call me!" One of the girls shouted, shrugging when the rest of her group members gave her a look. "Aww, did my Jieun get jealous and decided to tell those girls off?" He smirked, pretending to be touched. Jieun laughed nervously, "You wished. I just wanted to say bye. So...bye!" She waved awkwardly causing him to laugh. "You are such a terrible liar" He ruffled her hair, "Come on, I'll walk you home" Doesn't he always.
"Actually.." How was she supposed to tell him she was stopping by at the mall to buy a new bikini? It's bad enough he saw her undergarments once. Her cheeks reddened at the memory of it. "I have somewhere to go, I'll see you on monday" Myungsoo stared at her as if she haven't just dismissed him.
"So where are we going?"
"Seriously Myungsoo, you can just stay outside. You don't have to go in!" She cried, stopping him from entering the shop. "Why not?" He whined. "I want to help you pick out a bikini" He added with a chuckle. "No, stay outside" She repeated as if he was a puppy. He raised both of his hands in defeat and crossed his arms. "I'll be good"
Jieun nodded in approval and gave him one last glance before walking in the store. "Hello, Miss. Can I help you?" Jieun blushed, why can't she pick out her own in peace? "It's fine" She whispered, signalling a no. "I'll be here if you need me" Jieun nodded as a polite gesture and walked to the other side of a shop, stiffling a groan. It was all Jaekyung's fault for pestering her into
