Chapter 5: On Her Back
The Journey of TrustChapter 5: ON HER BACK
Three days passed since the day she talked to him again. Krystal had never seen him at school, maybe it’s because the school’s just too big for them to bump into each other or they just simply never should have. They also never talked again after but it’s fine for Krystal. She thought that he’s totally just want to straighten everything in between them this time and they're really just friends now. In her mind, maybe he thought that it would be good if she could just hang out with him just like she hangs out with the rest of EXO members.
She also didn’t tell anyone about the chat - Krystal just talked to her sister. Jessica might be the best person to talk to for now because she never judges. She told her about everything – she even cried in her lap. It’s a relief that they finally got to talk, but it’s also painful for Krystal to deal with reality. Krystal didn’t even tell Sehun or the other EXO members about it EXO might already found out from Jongin, but she didn’t want it to come out from . She doesn’t want to be seen like the one who’s hoping here.
“Stop avoiding Kai. Let’s just be cool to each other like you used to. You’ll be okay and we’ll make you happy. For now, friends before love. Okay?” she kept on repeating Kris’s words in her mind and decided to ease off the tense.
Krystal walked down the school hallway with her brown wavy loose long hair, her perfectly curved body, and also her glimmering white glowing skin. She covered her uniform with her dark blue sweater - it matched her black and blue plaid skirt uniform well. She caught every man’s eyes but would only nod with a smile when someone greeted her.
So much people likes her but she never even once give them a chance. She might be perfect in everybody's eyes now but it’s so different back then. Therefore she never takes their feelings since she knew they only liked her after her appearance changed.
She was searching for her friends on the hallway. It was break time and she wanted to grab lunch but she didn’t want to eat like a loner. She usually just needed to go to the cafeteria and join EXO right away but she’s not feeling like approaching them for today – the reason was because she wanted to avoid sitting in the same table with Kai. After a short search, she spotted Kyungsoo at the entrance of the cafeteria. He just stood there alone looking at the people. It was so cute. He was just like a lost child – typical Kyungsoo with his O.O face.
“Kyungsoo-ah!!!” she ran toward him and gave him a hug. She always does that whenever she meets him. She treated Kyungsoo like a little brother. Of course they’re at the same age line but for her Kyungsoo’s just too cute for a 17th year old boy. Kyungsoo’s fine with it but whenever she started pinching his cheek like a little baby then he’ll scold her.
She pinched his cheeks and he started to nag. “Yah Jung Soo Jung. I’ll pull your hair in the count of three if you don’t let go of my cheeks,” his eyes widened and his teeth clenched – it was just so cute for her to take in.
“Kekekekekeke arasso, arasso. Where’s the others?” she said while tiptoeing to look inside the crowded cafetaria and found EXO’s table empty.
“They’re playing soccer,” Kyungsoo answered simply.
“Okay then little baby, let’s grab lunch!” she slung her arm around his s
