Rhyme 2.4
I Want YouThe flutter didn’t stop just like that.
Today Mingyu and the girl would go on a date.
A real date.
He felt his heart beating two times faster as he thought of that word ‘date’.
Oh, he was going to go to a date.
Oh, it was so exciting!
Woo-hoo!
Mingyu couldn’t help but smile like an idiot.
He was so happy (he knew he shouldn’t be like this, since he didn’t know she would say ‘yes’ for going for other dates or not) that finally he told Seungkwan and Seokmin.
“Oh man, really?” Seokmin sounded so happy on the other line. “I’m so happy you find the right girl! She must be very special.”
She’s very special indeed.
Seungkwan took the phone from Seokmin. “Is it true that Kwon Soon-young is the one who set you up with that girl? What’s class she in?”
“She was in the same class with Soon-young, and yeah, I can say that Soon-young setting us up.” Mingyu replied.
“Wow, that’s really great!” Seungkwan squalled. “He didn’t know our plans but he helped out of the blue. I’m really thankful.” He giggled.
Seokmin took the phone from Seungkwan. “Congrats, Mingyu! I hope I hear good news from you soon.”
Mingyu chuckled. “I hope you two get girlfriends too.”
“Don’t worry about us.” Mingyu heard Seungkwan’s voice.
“Oh, I’m so happy! Seungkwan, we and Soon-young should open a matchmaking service!”
“Actually that’s not a bad idea!”
Mingyu hoped the best for his two best friends.
He was now waiting for her in an Italian restaurant. They would meet at 4pm. Yes, it was like a dejavu. He didn’t know why he decided to reserve a table in a same restaurant at the same time. He thought that their supposed to be called a date a month ago needed to be finished by doing the same thing. They didn’t eat last time, he ate alone, and that was not fun. It was like he wanted to go to the plans he had made for that day.
“Can I take your order?” a waiter came to his table and actually it was the same waiter who served him that day. The waiter recognized Mingyu as Mingyu gave him a smile. “Is your girlfriend coming today, sir?”
“She will come, but we’re not officially dating yet.” Mingyu told him the information the waiter didn’t need to know. The waiter just nodded in response. “I will order when she arrives.” Mingyu added.
“I understand.” The waiter left.
It was 3 minutes to 4pm and she hasn’t arrived yet.
She had told him that she had something to do related to her photography club before she came here. He wondered if it was still related to another exhibition since she told him that lately the club members should work in pairs to hunt some photos. She didn’t tell him much about the club but he knew that her partner was the one who took the photo of Mingyu and her. That Jeon Wonwoo sunbaenim. Maybe he didn’t need to think of this, but somehow that sunbaenim stared at Mingyu coldly, especially when Mingyu came back at the exhibition hall that day. She took Mingyu on a tour of the exhibition and all Mingyu could feel was cold stares behind his back. That sunbaenim looked like he hated Mingyu. Mingyu told this to her, and she answered
“Well, h-he stares at me like that too, perhaps h-he hates e-everyone.”
No, that was not true. That sunbaenim stared at her differently.
Mingyu was thinking about some possibilities as she arrived. He instantly forgot about what he had been thinking earlier.
“Di-did you wait so long?” she asked. Actually that was the same question she asked at their first meeting. The dejavu felt even real. She even looked the same, those sweats on her face. Last month when they met for the first time, he couldn’t get his eyes off of her, since he predicted why she was in sweats, maybe because she had been running to get here, and it was all for him. Seriously, she didn’t need to run. He would
