WENDY’s POV

“Seungwan-ah, I think I like you, *she shook her head* no, I love you already, I fell for you, for the past 3 months, something had changed whenever I look at you, my heartbeat becomes faster whenever I see you and before I know it, I keep worrying and thinking about you, i-it just happened, Seungwan. I really can’t explain everything, It’s just I am sure in one thing. I have fallen for you, real hard. So, uhm. Can you be my prom date nextweek, Seungwan?”

I didn’t expect that Joohyun will tell me this. And I don’t know what to say. I don’t know how to process everything. I don’t know what will I tell her.

“I-I don’t know Joohyun, I think I don’t feel the same way?”

There I said it. Because I am afraid. I know I like her already, it’s just I am too afraid to admit it. I am afraid to fall in love with a player. And I think If I admit my feelings, the relationship will end if Joohyun will leave. So I don’t really know. I don’t wan’t to be hurt. So I said it. Irene’s face started to get sad and hurt. I don’t want to see her like this. I want to tell her my feelings also, but I can’t.

“A-ah, o-okay, you don’t have feelings for me? Yeah, this is a first” Joohyun laughed but it is obviously a fake one.

“What do you dislike about me, Wendy?” Joohyun asked but I can see the sadness in her eyes. I can’t say anything, because in fact. I love everything about this girl, how can I dislike her? She is perfect already.

“I … I, I…” I stuttered as I don’t know what else to say

“I know it already, I am not smart” Joohyun had faked a laugh again

“I-It’s not that, you’re a smart girl Joohyun, but I know you are a player”

As I said it, her gaze had drifted to my side. I know she is avoiding my gaze. But there is something on her eyes. It’s like she really is hurt?

“Seungwan, I know I can’t clear my image as a playgirl, but listen, I really am serious with you. It’s been so long since I felt this feeling. It’s been so long since I let myself open up my past to someone like you. I am serious, Seungwan. I love you” as she said the past word, she look at my eyes again. And for a second, I felt her sincerity. It’s like she really is serious.

“I- I don’t really know, Joohyun. I’m sorry, I really am” I said it and Joohyun once again faked a smile, noded, and then went out of the photoboth.

I looked at the machine in front and grabbed the stock of photos that we have took and put it on my bag. I don’t know why I did it. I just dumped Irene but I still grabbed these photos. And after that I ran outside and saw Joohyun’s back and she is walking, I followed her and I wanted to protest when she past the dresses section in the mall. But after thinking about it, maybe she won’t go anymore. So I didn’t protest, instead I just followed her outside of the mall and into the parking lot. The drive was silent because I can’t dare to speak. The pain can be felt in the tmosphere. Then after a minute, Joohyun dropped me off. I do
