Chapter 10
A Promise To My Twin SisterI never knew Yoona liked Jaejoong that much, I never even believed that Yoona would ever fall for that kind of man. To be honest, Jaejoong is not even her type, but Baekhyun is.
After witnessing her, begging for Jaejoong's love, I started to pity her, I began to take care of her more and tried my best not to hurt her feelings, 'cause I know she wouldn't hurt mine as well. Pretending as if I didn't know about what happened yesterday between her and Jaejoong, I acted as if I just got electrified and 'magically' turned into her protector.
"When are you going to start training..??" Yoona asked calmly, while chewing her lunch
"Hmm, next week. Why?"
"Aniyo. Wonder if you'd like me to come along, I've been curious about how SM.Ent building looks like. It must be awesome, isn't it?"
I nodded and continued eating my lunch, "Eerm, Yoona-yah, did something wrong happen to you? You look down lately" I pretended not to know
She paused, "Aniyo, I just happen to meet my.. Eerm, somekind of an old love? And yep, I feel like I've dug my own grave", she answered while she plays with her food
"Who? Baekhyun-nie?" I teased
"Aniyo, aniyo. I trust him, I know he wouldn't hurt me. And he's not even my ex!" she answered
"WOOOOOOOOO~! Then shouldn't you just run to him and tell you how you feel? It would make it easier for you two to be together!"
Yoona laughed and answered her phone right away as it rang. "Hello. This is Yoona speaking.." she greeted, "OH! Baekhyun-ah?" she looked a bit shocked.
"Araso, araso.." she then raised and ran towards the door, she opened it and there it goes, Baekhyun's in front of the door, holding a bouquet of light pink roses, Yoona's favourite colour.
"This.. This.. This is for you" he smiled shyly
Yoona grabbed the rose and smiled shyly, they both froze and I could see they were feeling a bit nervous. I was glad Baekhyun might actually replace Jaejoong in Yoona's heart. "Ya! Yaaa..! YAAAAA! Stop being so awkward, come in!" I yelled, but no response. "YAAAAA! Bacon-ah!" I yelled and threw a tissue roll to his head, but ended up hitting too low.
"Ahh, jinja! YAAA,
"
I nodded, and Yoona nodded as well, "Approximately $35, why?" I asked
"LET'S GO AND WATCH A MOVIEEEEE!" Baekhyun shouted and jumped up and down excitedly, "That Transformers movie, it's shown in 3D! Please, please!" he begged
"How much do you have in your pocket?" I crossed my arms
He dug his hands into his pocket and grabbed his money, "Hmm, this is.. Hmm, approximately $40. It would be enough for me. How about you, Yoon?"
"I.. I spent quite a lot last week, so I only have $15, while the admission ticket is $25. I might just.. Stay at home today" she faked a smile
Baekhyun and I exchanged glances, it wouldn't be good to leave her at home while we go out and have fun. "No, that won't do. I have $35, and Baekhyun has $40, so I could pay $5 for you, and Baekhyun pay another $5 for you!" I said
"Yes! Yes! I agree. If you don't wanna come, we better stay here together, its not fun to leave someone when we go out and have fun" Baekhyun commented
"But.. It's just early March, and I need to wait 'til the first of April to get my monthly allowance from Dad" she said
"So?" we asked in unison
"So.. So I need to wait for a month to pay you back!" she answered
"Yoona-yah! It's only $5, it wouldn't kill us. Just come and have fun, you look bad, really bad!" Baekhyun said, and placed his hands on her shoulder. Yoona eventually nodded
After arriving at the venue, we bought 3 tickets, and a large box of popcorn. I held on to my ticket and I know they want me to sit in between the two of them so it wouldn't be awkward as the movie plays. We entered the studio, 15 minutes before the movie starts.
"Kyun-ah, do you want to swap seats with me? So you could sit beside her and hmm, hold her hands and umm, look at her from up close and umm, I don't know. Yes or no?" I whispered
"A-aniyo, aniyo. It would be soooo awkward! Not this time, I might try to be closer to her, but not now, I'm not ready" he said
"Idiot. You're not a man!" I hit him with my elbow and walked faster
"Yoona, do you want to sit in the middle? I know you hate sitting beside someone you don't know. Yes or no?" I asked her
"Ah, no, it's fine. But there's just a few people her, only around 50% filled, so I don't think anyone's gonna sit beside me" she said
I failed again, no use asking them again, they won't even bother to talk to me. The film starts and they both focused on the movie.
15 minutes passed..
45 minutes passed..
An hour passed..
An hour and 30 minutes passed..
I need the toilet, I need the toilet. "Baekhyun-ah!" I called him and hurriedly gave him a sign that I'm going out.
I ran outside hurriedly and without looking what's in front, I couldn't concentrate since I'm busy holding in my bladder.
"YA!" someone called, "YA!!", I didn't look back and continued running towards the nearest toilet
Ah, finally... I could let everything out, I feel relieved. "YA!" someone called again as I walked out from the toilet. And again, I didn't bother to look who that is
"YA!
I looked back at him, "Mwo? You! Lee Donghae?"
He laughed, "Why? Are you surprised I'm here? But you do look pretty, how much did you pay? A billion?"
"You're crazy.. I'm not like that Yujin!" I said and walked away, and didn't care that he followed me all the way to the studio
"Oh? Kim Yujin? You know her as well?" he suddenly asked
"Everyone knows her, but the . Why? She's your girlfriend?" I asked curiously
"Aniyo, but she used to" he smiled
"Oh? So she's your ex, huh? I pity you that you dated a like her. You should've dated someone better" I said, "But oh! you're at the same level as Yujin, so yeah, actually you both look good together" I added
He smirked, "Anyway, starting form next week, we're going to meet each other almost everyday, let's improve our relationship!"
"Why should we? We could just pretend not to know and talk to each other. It'd be easier for us" I said
He grabbed my phone from my grasp and missed called to his number, he must've gone insane, "I'll call you later" he said then left.
[NIGHT: 10PM]
It's 10PM, but Yoona and I were buried deep in thought. Yoona might remember about Jaejoong again, but I didn't dare to ask. We both stared blankly at the roof and breathe slowly.
"
"Ne?"
"Is it fine if I share a story?" she asked
I nodded, "Why? What happened?"
"Baekhyun-ie, when you went out of the studio and went to the toilet, you were outside for quite a long time, right?"
"Ne.. What happened? And also, when I went back to the studio, both of you were no longer there. Where were you?"
"It scared me.. He moved and sat beside, but I pretended not to see him. He then held my hand and he kinda leaned closer towards me. I said to him that it feels uncomfortable and embarrassing, so he dragged me to the corner of the theatre...." she explained while hugging her pillow
"So? What happened next? Woah, this sounds cool. It's like a drama, you should just write a novel about it, Yoon!"
"Then.. He told me he likes me and he wanted to be my boyfriend.."
"MWO? That fast? I thought it would took around a month to make him ready for it, but it actually took only hmm, a week? So.. What did you say?" I began to feel excited
"I was about to say it to him, but he tried to kiss me. So without saying a word to him, I pushed him away and I went home"
"So.. So.. You rejected him? Why? I thought you like him", I said and sat beside her
"Yes, I did. But yes, I'm not ready to love again" Yoona explained, "That old-love I spoke to you about, I liked him so much but he liked someone else. Now, I'm trying hard to get over him" she said
