Taeyeon's POV

 

After a long and tired day, I went home to sleep.

 

But surprised, Siwon is inside with mom and dad.

 

"Yo." I greeted him as I bowed to my parents.

 

My mom shook her head. "Taeyeon, what kind of word did you use to call your cousin? Though you both are closed, but you cannot greet him impolitely." She grumbled on and on.

 

UMMMAAA, JUST STOP PLEASE, I'M HAVING A HARD DAY!!

 

I really wished to shout that out loud because mom doesn't seem want to stop.

 

*sigh*

 

I sat beside Siwon, wishing he got my signals.

 

"It's okay, auntie." Siwon smiled politely. "I know her for long enough not to care her attitude anymore."

 

"I'm really pitying you for having her as a close cousin, Siwon."

 

"Omma..." I whined. "Anyway, thanks, cos." I told him.

 

"What happened to 'oppa'?" He whispered, watching my parents when he talked to me.

 

Yeah, we pretty much talked secretly.

 

"Not in the mood calling anyone that." I replied sulkily.

 

"As far as I know, you only call me that." Siwon pointed out.

 

"ARGH, stop making conversation with me!!" I hissed.

 

"Bad mood." He clutched his tounge. "Don't throw tantrums on me, kiddos." He warned.

 

"Well, you came here. Means you're asking to be my prey, right??" I told him. "Why are you here, anyway?"

 

His face brightened up.

 

W.T.F

 

Siwon - a charming guy, I must say - face is brightened up and I wanted to puke.

 

It's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo weird seeing a guy feeling that happy.

 

Gosh, my cousin is GAY.

 

Okay, okay, back to the topic.

 

"Ahem... so?" I asked him.

 

Mom and dad left, knowing full that he wanted to talk privately.

 

Psh, rich cousin.

 

"I think I fell for Tiffany." He confessed.

 

I gagged.

 

My mind is exploding because dynamite was thrown inside.

 

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttt?!!!

 

For all the living things' sake, did I hear right?!

 

Okay, okay, brain, collected youself.

 

First, Tiffany confessed to me she likes Wooyoung.

 

Second, my cousin, Siwon, confessed she likes Tiffany.

 

Then third, will Wooyoung confess that he like someone too?!

 

Dimwit.

 

This life is . Everything is confusing.

 

"Hey."

 

I didn't realize Siwon has been wagging his fingers in front of me, making sure I'm not spacing out, which I am.

 

"What!?" I hissed.

 

"Say something, but 'what'." He said.

 

"What should I say? 'Yes, Tiffany likes you too, Wonnie'? Dream on." I harshly said.

 

Oops. Why was I being so sensitive?

 

Siwon seemed to be taken aback by my comment. His face slowly becomes sad.

 

Ugh. Why my cousin has this kind of face? Now I'm feeling guilty.

 

Guilty as charge.

 

I sighed. "You know what, Siwon? I don't mean any words from before. I'm just having a bad day, and you came, and you..."

 

He stopped me. "Yeah, I know you don't mean that."

 

I felt grateful that he understoon, but...

 

"No one can actually resist Siwon's charm!" He exclaimed and laughed.

 

I gave him a weird look for being so confident.

 

Uh-huh.

 

What if he finds out that Tiffany likes Wooyoung and break down like a fragile woman? Damn, that was hard to bear...

 

I fake a laugh when in inside I wailed.

 

What to do, now?

 

Siwon's POV

 

I actually didn't mean it when I say no one can resist my charm.

 

That just a lie.

 

A big fat lie.

 

I actually felt so unattractive.

 

But if Tiffany can accept me for who I am, then I don't need to be attractive. I just need her love.

 

I felt Taeyeon become stiff with my comeback, and I laughed hard.

 

Trying.

 

Trying to make the tense atmosphere go away. But that doesn't really worked out, though.

 

"Ahem, Taeyeon?" I cleared my throat.

 

She gave me blank expression.

 

"I'll leave now." I said and she just nodded like robot.

 

I wish I know what she is thinking.

 

She is my one and only cousin that I could trust. Seeing her in that expression and 'bad day' not giving me any good feeling.

 

But I believed if she wanted to tell, she will.

 

There's no need to force her too.

 

"Bye." I told her, leaving her house as she waved to me.

 

"Bye, Wonnie!" She shouted and closed the door.

 

I wanted to see Tiffany.

 

Guess, I'll be seeing her tomorrow?

 

Happily, I went home.
