Fifty nine (christmas day!)

Just Leave Me Alone

Jihae slowly opened the front door and breathed in the cold air.

Taemin called out to Jihae to come help set up the shop.

"Coming!" Jihae called out and looked outside for the last time.

Jihae ran to the back of the shop and started preparing for the customers.

As time went by, the cafe started filling up with customers.

It was so busy that Jihae didn't even realise Junhyung was right there helping her.

It started getting darker and everyone started leaving to go celebrate Christmas.

Taemin was allowed to leave early for the party that Yena was holding.

Soon there were only 2-3 people left in the cafe so Junhyung and Jihae decided to have a rest.

"THAT was the busiest day of my life." Junhyung sat down on the seats, all puffed out.

Jihae nodded in agreement and sat down next to him.

The manager popped his head around the door and smiled.

"Hey you guys! Thanks for your hard work today! Here's your pay and you're allowed to leave now."

The manager patted both of them on the back and walked out to close the cafe.

Junhyung and Jihae changed into their clothes and walked outside.

Snow was falling from the sky and all the christmas lights were on.

"Soo.. uh, are you doing anything today?" Junhyung awkwardly walked next to Jihae.

"Nah. Except going home. What about you?"

Junhyung scratched the back of his head and shrugged.

"I guess.. the same as you."

Jihae nodded and they kept on walking. Jihae couldn't stand the long silence between the two.

So she decided to speak when suddenly Junhyung spoke at the same time.

"You first." Jihae smiled.

"Uh.. well, i was wondering if you wanted to um, hang?" Junhyung smiled back.

Jihae laughed and nodded. "Sure, why not. Where do you wanna go?"

Junhyung grinned and looked around.

"There's this park that looks really pretty at night."

Junhyung started walking and Jihae followed after.

It started getting really cold so Jihae tried warming her hands by rubbing them together.

Junhyung glanced over at Jihae and smirked.

He slowly took Jihae's hand and put it into his jacket's pocket.

Jihae looked over at him and chuckled.

After awhile, they finally reached the park.

"Damn. Everythings covered in snow." Junhyung grumbled and stopped walking.

Jihae let go of his hand and walked over to the playground.

She found a place where it wasn't covered with snow because it had a roof.

Jihae turned around and grinned and told Junhyung to come over.

They both sat down underneath the roof and curiously looked around.

Junhyung could see that Jihae was shivering so he moved over next to her and wrapped one side of his jacket around her.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jinki was sitting down on the sofa, bored with the party.

He kept sipping on his drink and not making conversation with anyone.

Some girls even tried approaching him but he just ignored them.

Jinki couldn't stop thinking about that one person who wasn't at the party.

Jinki got up and walked out of the house without anyone realising.

As soon as he was out, he wrapped his thick scarf around his neck and zipped up his parka and started walking.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You've really never had a boyfriend?" Junhyung laughed out loud.

Jihae glared at him.

"It is not that funny! Then what about you? Did you ever have a girlfriend?"

Junhyung nodded.

"Mm.. around 30?"

Jihae rolled her eyes while Junhyung laughed even more.

"No but seriously. Why haven't you dated before?"

Jihae slowly stopped laughing and tried hiding her awkward smile.

"I just.. i don't know. I don't feel like it, i guess." Jihae awkwardly laughed.

"Well.. do you feel like it now?"

Jihae stopped laughing and slowly looked up at Junhyung.

She realised he actually looked serious.

Jihae didn't know how to respond so she quickly got up and walked out.

"Hey it's getting pretty late. We should go home."

Jihae was about to walk away when Junhyung suddenly got up and hugged Jihae from behind.

"Jihae. Don't act like you don't feel anything."

Jihae stopped moving and stayed still.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"I know you do. Or am i the only that-"

"Junhyung?"

Jihae and Junhyung both slowly looked up and saw someone standing there, staring at them.

Junhyung slowly let go of Jihae and backed away.

"J-jinki? Is that really you?"

Jihae looked back and forth at both people.

"You guys know each other?"

Jinki ignored Jihae and slowly walked up to Junhyung.

"What.. are you doing here?"

"H-here? i'm just hanging with Jiha-"

"In Korea."

Junhyung opened his mouth and tried saying something but nothing came out.

Jinki slowly started frowning.

"What are you doing in Korea, Junhyung?"

Junhyung stayed still and looked back and forth at Jinki and Jihae.

Jihae couldn't stand not knowing what was going on.

She walked up to Junhyung and Jinki.

"What's going on? How do you guys know each other?"

Junhyung pulled away from Jinki's stare and looked down at Jihae.

"U-um.. we're childhood friends."

Jihae looked at them both in shock.

She was about to say something when Jinki butted in.

"I'll ask you again. What are you doing HERE?"

"I-i.. i don't know."

Jinki suddenly grabbed Junhyung by the collar and slammed him against the brick wall.

"Why the  are you with Jihae?" Jinki whispered in Junhyung's face.

Jihae gasped and tried pulling them apart.

"Jinki! What the hells wrong with you?! Stop it!"

Jihae pulled Jinki's hands off Junhyung and stood in front of Junhyung.

"Why are you attacking your childhood friend like that?!"

Jinki was breathing heavily with anger and just looked at Jihae.

Jihae stopped yelling and blinked a few times.

She's never seen Jinki so angry.

Jinki turned around and walked off.

Junhyung called out to him but Jinki didn't turn around once.

Jihae slowly turned around and looked at Junhyung.

"What.. was that about?"
