Chapter 13
Say You Love Me [ Hiatus]
Kim Jongin was ready to go out for his first date with Bae Suzy. Saying he that wasn't nervous was an understatement of the century. He wanted it to be special, and for nothing to go wrong.
'Somebody is going for a date today.'
'Who?' Mrs Kim asked.
'Your son and my daughter.'
'Suzy and Kai?" Mrs Kim asked looking at Mr Bae. 'But they always go out together. I didn't see any big fuss about it.' Mrs Kim blinked animatedly, staring at her husband's friend.
Mr Kim rolled his eyes, and kicked at his wife's leg lightly under the table. "Honey, before this those two just hung around together. But today they are going for “A Date” Don't you get it?'
'I'm processing.' Mrs Kim said, noticing the looks that she was getting.
'What took you so long? Your son has a girlfriend that just so happens to be his Suzy.'
His Suzy? That made Kai smiled slightly.
'They're boyfriend and girlfriend now? Since when?'
'Since now.' Mr Bae responded.
'We are?' Suzy said looking at Kai.
Kai shrugged his shoulders.
'They're a now couple. I'm so happy.' Mrs Bae said with a wide smile on her face.

Suddenly Mrs Kim squealed. 'We can start planning your wedding!'
Suzy choked on her drink.
'Umma!' Kai shrieked.
Kai wrinkled his nose, giggling at remembering their parent’s reactions this morning during breakfast.
"You didn't buy her flowers for your first date?” His umma asked when he met his parents as he walked to the door.
"Umma, don't you think you're so bit too excited?"
"But you should, boy."
"I'll buy for her next time." Kai answered.
"All right then, you can go now. Maybe she is waiting for you." His umma said excitedly.
"Bye umma, appa."
"Bye son." His appa replied.
Kai closed the door and walked straight to her house. He lingered in front of Suzy’s house, nervously glancing at his watch as it got closer to seven. He felt like there was a particular pressure on them. They weren't just in friend territory right now, there was a possibility of something more, which he wasn't going to deny and say he didn't like the prospect of it. He always had harboured a small crush on her even though he kept denying it.
Suzy was pacing in her bedroom. Now that things had ended with Himchan and she was with Kai, she realised that the feeling she had for Kai were deeper and far more real than she had allowed herself to believe.
