Sulli

“There were so many things missing that were in the book, but it was still an awesome movie!” Nara exclaimed as we walked out of the movie theatre. We had just watched the film Divergent that was being played with Korean subtitles. I didn’t need the subtitles though and neither did Nara.

“Yeah,” I said with a laugh. “There were some stuff missing, but doesn’t that happen with every book that’s turned into a movie?”

“Of course.”

I was right when I said Nara was strong; we haven’t said a word about the other day and she has not shown any changes either.

“Are you alright?” I asked Nara as I lead her into her apartment. I looked around. Her apartment was blank and crapy. When I say crapy, I mean crapy.

There wasn't a lot in the home, there looked to be leakage stains, and there were cracks on the wall. There wasn’t any furniture besides a bed and maybe a table or two while the kitchen didn’t look any better. How does she live here?

“Yeah, I’m fine,” she said throwing her bag onto the bed. She smiled at me like she had never cried, like she had never slapped Chen, like the picture had never spread among fans.

“You know,” I said taking a seat next to her, “You could come live in my apartment with Minhyuk and myself. We’d be glad to pay your share of rent.”

Nara offered me a kind smile and shook her head. “I’m okay. I don’t want to use your money.”

I looked her in the eyes and placed my hand on hers. “Seriously, come live with Minhyuk and me. We can move the computers from the office and set it up in the living room or our room.”

Nara only removed my hand from hers and looked away. “It’s alright. That’s too much for you guys to do and this place isn’t so bad.”

“Alright,” I said hesitant. “Are you really okay though? You slapped Jongdae pretty hard.”

Nara’s sweet laughter filled my ears. “Yes. I just got mad and overwhelmed. I’m alright though.”

I looked at Nara as we walked up the steps of our apartment complex. She looked alright on the outside, but I’m not sure if she is alright on the inside.

“I’ll message you later,” Nara said with a smile when we reached her apartment. I waved and watched as she walked inside. Why can’t she just agree to live with us?

Once the door was closed, I walked up the steps to my apartment. I walked inside and went straight to my bedroom.

Minhyuk was out right now hanging out with Chanyeol most likely so I had the apartment to myself. I sat my backpack on the bed and sat down. Looking to my right, I noticed a notecard on the nightstand. Picking it up, I read it.

Wear sweats and my sweatshirt and be in the park by eight.

                                                                                -Baekhyun ♥

I laughed at his note. Shouldn’t it say ‘Wear a nice dress and meet me outside, we have a dinner date’? He’s such an odd person and that’s what I love about him. I looked at my phone and noted that it was six right now. I had two hours to do what I wanted and then meet him in the park. I wonder what this is all about.

For the next two hours, I did what I usually do; watch YouTube videos. Once it was seven forty five and Minhyuk was still nowhere to be found, I got up and searched in my closet for Baekhyun’s sweatshirt. He left it here one time and I failed to return it. It’s become my sleeping wear.

Placing the sweatshirt over my body, I looked down at my legs. I had my pajama pants on and figured I should change. Going over to another drawer, I pulled out gray sweatpants trading them for my pajamas with Scooby Doo on them.

Leaving the bedroom, I turned off the lights and grabbed my phone and keys shoving them into my pocket. I reached the front door and turned around to make sure all the lights were off. I then turned back and slipped my pair of gray Vans on. I then went outside my apartment locking the door behind me.

Walking down the stairs, I began to sing Overdose. Some parts I could remember from the practice room while others escaped my mind. Once in the lobby, I slightly bowed to the woman at the front desk and then exited the building.

Walking down the street in the dark is comforting, yet terrifying. It’s comforting because no one is out to bother you and being by myself is comfort to me, but it’s terrifying knowing that at any moment something could happen.

I sang different songs as I walked to the nearby park. They ranged from EXO to VIXX songs. Once in the park, I found a bench to sit on and looked at my phone screen. It was currently seven fifty seven meaning I got here three minutes early. For those three minutes, I layed down on the bench and sang more.

“Be the light
Shine on my black and hidden heart
Melt me from being frozen
So that I’ll be so dazzling
That no one else can look at me

Be the light (shine your light on me baby)
Be the light uh uh uh oh
Be the light (shine your light on me baby)
Even when you slightly pass by me, I feel like everything has been taken away from me”

I sang Be The Light by Block B loosing myself in the song. I stopped singing as the park lit up. I slowly sat up and looked up at the trees. On them were Christmas lights and between them were lanterns dangling.

I looked around for the culprit and found Baekhyun walking towards me with a smile plastered on his face. Standing up, I met him half way. Once to him, I placed my arms around him in a hug.

“So what’s this for Mr. Byun?” I asked with my face in his chest.

“Well Mrs. Byun, I thought I’d do something pretty for you.”

I giggled at the name. Mrs. Byun. Byun Sulli. Sounds a little strange, but I like it.

I pulled back and pecked him on the lips. “Then why am I in sweats?”

He leaned back in for another kiss. “Because,” he said after breaking it. “You’re pretty enough and I just wanted to relax while looking at the pretty lights.”

I smiled and gave him a squeeze. “Sounds great.”

Random EXO Confession #44:

As I read Divergent, I imagined the main characters brother, Caleb, as Chanyeol and I have no idea why. They are nothing alike. Once I saw the movie, I began to picture Caleb like the actor instead because in Insurgent (the second book), Caleb's not what you expect...
