Chapter 15
This Thing called 'LOVE'"Oh My God! You gave me a heart attack !" - Aeri said, her legs losing the strength in them making her squat.
Seunghyun could only laugh at the sight in front of him.
"What are you doing here ! It's 3 AM !" - Aeri commented, glaring at Seunghyun.
" I could ask you the same." - Seunghyun replied with a grin.
"But I asked you first" - Aeri retorted getting up from the ground. The duo met each other on the street leading them to their cottage.
"Hmmmm true. "
"So what are you doing here ?" - Aeri shot a questioning look at him.
"I couldn't sleep. Too many things on my mind." - Seunghyun replied leading their way to a bench nearby.
"Why what happened?"
"Nothing.....Actually I don't know." - Seunghyun replied with a smile, finding his answer silly.
"Huh?"
"Fear of the unknown, I guess."
"Oppa" - Aeri called him out looking directly into his eyes. His confession had actually surprised Aeri cause he seemed like a carefree, kidish soul. Little did she know that the guy she was talking to was a sensitive little kid who was sometimes lost in his own world.
"If you keep living in fear when are you gonna enjoy life? Things are kept unknown for a reason. It's kept unknown so that we can get surprised by it. So rather than being in fear of it, you should be excited. Excited that life has kept tons of surprises in store for you. Now whether they are good or bad is secondary."
Seunghyun couldn't help but admire the kid sitting next to him. He was totally surprised to hear such words from .
"Waaww sometimes I need have some sense knocked into me by kids too." - Seunghyun teased Aeri, tapping her nose causing her to giggle.
"Now tell me what's up with you ?"
"Nothing. Actually I don't know. Too much on my mind I guess." - Aeri imitated Seunghyun making both of them erupt in laughter.
After calming themselves down, Arei continued - " It's actually nothing, I couldn't fall asleep because of Hani's loud snores. That girl keeps everyone awake and sleeps peacefully. Just like an infant."
"You do know that you can come to me whenever you want to share something right? " - Seunghyun replied with a smile.
"I know Oppa." - Aeri replied with the same smile.
"Now let's leave or else Tae Oh might come and hunt me down." - Seunghyun joked, messing Aeri's hair and getting up from the bench.
The sibling like pair soon parted their ways but one thing they failed to notice were the pair of eyes continuously watching them.
Jiyong stood in the balcony of his cottage, taking a puff and witnessing the whole sense that had happened. It would be wrong to say that he didn't feel angry. But more than being angry he was jealous. With a frown on his face, he returned back to his room.
"Good morning Aeri!" - Hani chirped.
"Yah! I couldn't sleep last night all thanks to your snores." - Aeri mumbled in her sleep.
"Oooo heheh sorry." - Hani apologized kind of embarrassed with herself.
"Aaaa aaaahh aaaaahhhhh " - Hani flinched due to the pinching pain in her ear.
Eul had caught Hani by her ears and was dragging her out of the bed.
"How many times have I told you to no leave your wet towel on my bed." - Eul commented pulling Hani by her ears to make her clean the mess she created.
"Aeri~~ Eul is bullying me again!" - Hani pleaded for help.
"Eul please make her pay for disturbing my precious sleep too!" - Aeri shot back causing Eul to let out a giggle.
"Yah!" - Hani opposed by stomping her feet.
"Go call Seungri, maybe he might come and help you." - Aeri teased making Hani go red.
"My god, look how red her face has turned" - Eul commented making Hani whine.
An hour later everyone was ready to explore the new places to be visited. They were going to visit Cheongpyeong river. The place was famous for it's 50m tall bungee jumping site.
Rather than taking 2 different cars, the group decided to rent a mini caravan as they would be camping later on.
Aeri and Hani were busy dozing off in the back seat while Eul was again busy with her client.
"Any problem Eul?" - Tae Oh asked, concerned for the young girl as she seemed frustrated.
"Nah, it's nothing much. Just some issue regarding the design of a project." - Eul replied, switching off her cell phone.
"Chuck your work. You came to enjoy, don't stress about your work." - Seunghyun advised.
"Yeah."
"Look at those both, they have no worry about the world. All they do is sleep, just like our maknae here." - Tae Oh commented glancing at Aeri,Hani and Seungri.
"That poor kid didn't get to much sleep yesterday" - Seunghyun replied, getting a questioning look from everyone except Jiyong.
"Why what happened?" - Taeyang asked.
"Hyung didn't let her sleep and kept talking to her." - Jiyong blurted out, still pissed.
"How do you know!? You were awake too?" - Seunghyun questioned but Jiyong didn't reply and simply turned his face away. Seunghyun understood what was going inside Jiyong's head and he couldn't help but smile at his Dongsaen's pouting face.
"Wait when did this happen?" - Eul asked, confused cause she never knew Aeri wasn't in her room.
"Yesterday at around 3.15, Aeri said she couldn't fall asleep because Hani kept snoring. So she texted me,asking whether I would mind having a talk with her. Since I too was awake I decided to meet up with her." - Seunghyun lied with a straight face, he was in a mood to prank Jiyong. But the mischievous smile on his face didn't go unnoticed by Tae Oh and Taeyang. Both of them knew that their dorky friend was up to something and they needed to play along.
"Oh seriously? Wow I didn't think Aeri would ever open up to you Hyung." - Daesung joined in.
"Yeah, actually. It's rare to see her ask people out that to in the middle of the night." - Eul replied, unaware of the fact that there was something fishy going on.
Jiyong couldn't control his facial expressions and the words 'I'm Jealous of You' - were clearly written all over his face.
