chapter vii
Our Story (우리의 이야기)"I'm going first guys." Shinhye stood up. Having new friends like this made her feel that she can adapt to the people with different attitudes. Jungshin, Minhyuk and Yonghwa are simply not the gentleman type but she thinks they are more realistic than what Yuri wanted having. Jieun is not the typical angelic friend - and Shinhye liked it. She knew she's not perfect, everybody has flaw. Being with people that making her happy, making her grow up. "I really enjoyed this group date." She smiled. "Maybe even happier if Mojo's not here." She made a peace sign at him.
"Look at her, she's starting again." Yonghwa stood up but Jieun grabbed her arm.
"Stop being such at kid, Yong. Are you going to fight again?" She asked.
"But you see that I'm not the one who started it." He scratched his head.
Minhyuk stood up also. "Shinhye let's go." He said. "It is dark already."
"Hey, Kang Minhyuk! You are being so fishy over Shinhye. I am going to knock your head." Jungshin said.
"Why? Is it wrong to be with her today?" He raged. "And, I'm not hurting anybody."
"Ok. Let's go, Hyukkie." Shinhye said. "Jungshin, take care of Yuri. Okay?!" She pointed at Jungshin. "Don't do something fishy."
"Roger that!" Jungshin playfully said.
"Bye!" She said and dragged Minhyuk that made Yonghwa clueless. She dragged Minhyuk like they are more close that them. He started to think that maybe he is wrong fighting to a girl. But it is Shinhye - she said that she already understood him. So what the hell is that? Dragging Minhyuk like they are dating. Stupid Park Shinhye - Minhyuk just broke up with his first love and he is technically making a play with you. Jungshin already warned him, didn't you realize that earlier?
"Hey! What are you thinking about?" Jieun poked him. "Is it your Mom again? I said don't worry about it."
"I'm not thinking of her. She is happy somewhere in this world so why would I bother her." He said honestly. Jieun knew all of it, because she was the one who supported and comforted him back then. Jieun is a good friend. A very good friend.
"Shoot. Was that Shinhye and Minhyuk?" Jieun pointed at the two people hugging each other.
Yonghwa froze.

"Actually, I'm really going to reject you sending me home tonight. I can go alone, it is just 8pm." Shinhye sighed. "But,"
"But what?" Minhyuk stopped.
"But you need to go back to your senses now, Hyukkie." She stopped at the post. "You said a while ago that you don't hurt anybody, but in fact you are. And I think if you didn't stop doing these things that person will end up dying." She smiled.
"Who is that person then?" He asked.
Shinhye pointed where his heart lies. "You." Then she held her palm over his chest. "Stop hurting yourself. I can feel you. Stop pushing yourself being happy when in fact you just want Yejin to be with you again."
Minhyuk grabbed Shinhye's hand and pushed her body to him. He buried his head on her neck.
"See?" She tapped his back. "I knew this would happen."
"I realized how warm you are when you always snob people." Minhyuk whispered. "Thank you."
"I simply got tired seeing you flirt with me but you wanted Yejin to be back."
"I'm not just flirting. I really care for you." Minhyuk confessed. "Don't forget that."
"Okay. Got it." Shinhye laughs. "Let's go home."
Minhyuk smiled. "Thank you, Blossom."
"Seriously?" Shinhye smirked.

"My life isn't going to be better. I am late again." Shinhye sighed while running to her room.
"Park Shinhye!"
"Aish. Not now Jung Yonghwa. I'm late. Let's fight later." She waved.
"Are you dating Minhyuk?" He shouted. "Are you stupid?"
Shinhye stopped. This boy is really going to make a fight again. "I'm not dating him!"
"Then why I saw you two hugging??" Yonghwa asked like a jealous man. "Don't try to deny. I saw you two last night."
Shinhye whispered. "So are we dating? Because I remember hugging you." She teased that made Yonghwa froze again.
"Then don't hug all the guys." He dictated.
"I'm not."
"I told you I saw you."
"I'm just comforting him."
"So, did you just comforted me too last time when you hug me?" He pouted.
"You guys are fighting again??!" Jieun exclaimed. "Stop it!"
"I'm going now. If ever my I can't attend my classes today you are dead, Mojo." She eyed Yonghwa.
***
She run as fast as she can. Jieun was there. Jieun like Yonghwa. She doesn't want any conflicts between them. "What a devil." She pouted. "And why does Jieun always appeared when we are fighting?" She whispered.
"Whispering like a ghost there, Blossom." Minhyuk smiled.
"Is there something weird about Jieun?" She asked him. "Like being so honest or something?" She sighed.
"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Minhyuk laughs. "You are so tricky, Blossom."
"What do you mean tricky? I think it's her who's like that." She insists.
"Why?" He asked. "Is she being tricky because of Yonghwa?" He laughs again. "That's expected."
"What do you mean expected?"
"Why are you so nosy about her?" Minhyuk teased. "I am starting to think that you.."
"Me what?" She raised her eyebrow.
Minhyuk sighed. He know this could be a possibility, but it happened too quickly that he can't even think what he should do. "That you want to revenge because of Yonghwa’s attitude." Then he laughs. He don't wanna say it - because he's afraid that Shinhye might admit it. He don't wanna make Shinhye say again that it's because of Yejin.
Yes, Yejin is his love. Yejin broke up and he's still in the process of recovery. Then one day, Shinhye brought up a piece of light at him and he's amazed. Shinhye made himself grow day by day without Yejin.
Yes, he still have Yejin is his heart. But, Shinhye is slowly occupying the wounded part of him that Yejin has made.
Please pray for the Philippines.
