Kyungsoo accompanied me home. It was my first time to walk with a guy.

“We can part ways now. Our house is just there.” I said, breaking the silence between us.

“Okay.” He replied.

“Kyungsoo...” he turned around. I think I’m blushing.

“Thank you for this day....oppa.” I said, a bit stuttering. I remember that he’s older than me by 2 years.

“You really remember me now. Your honorifics are back.” He replied with a little smirk at the end.

“Goodnight, Jihyunie. I’ll see you tomorrow.” He said.

Now, I am sure that my whole face is turning red. It was my first time to feel this kind of tension.

I went straight inside my bedroom. Right hand on my chest. My heart feels like it’ll burst from Kyungsoo’s smile and words.

*phone vibrates* -1 Kakao message from Doh Kyungsoo-

[ Sleep well. :) ]

I almost threw my phone. I never knew that my heart would flutter like crazy from a simple text message of him.

[ You too, oppa. Sweet dreams :) ]

 I replied. I hide my phone under my pillow before I start giggling like a kid who received a candy.

[ Jihyunie, stop replying. I’m trying to sleep. ]

[ I’ll just talk to you in dreams then. ]

I replied, covering my face with my pillow.

[ 🧡 ]

I threw my phone on the other side of the bed. My heart is fluttering so much! I went to sleep with a happy heart.

“Ji...hyunie” I turned around and saw Kyungsoo.

“Oppa. You’re here.” I replied, smiling. I suddenly remember our message exchange last night. I can feel my face getting hot.

“Ya. Why is your face so red?” He asked. I touch my cheeks. It was so warm!

“Cause the weather is so hot today!” I exclaimed. Obviously lying.

“Where should we eat after the review?” He said while putting his hand over my shoulders.

“Ya! Mrs. Park might see us!” I whispered while distancing myself to him.

“And so? We’re not doing anything bad. We’re friends.” He replied. Yeah we’re “friends” now but why am i sulking over that term.

“Ya jihyunie. I heard a joke about mayonnaise.”

“What is it?”

“I won’t tell you cause you might spread it.” He laughed after saying his joke. I giggle a bit.

“Ya that’s not even a laugh!” He exclaimed. I burst out my laughter.

“You can be real Jihyun if you’re with me.” He said with a warm smile. 

I need help... I think I’m falling for him.
