Sehun’s POV

“Yo Sehun ah. Didn’t you come back with Aemi? When is she coming? Ya! Did she change much when she was little? I’ll bet she’s still just as stubborn,” Chanyeol muttered to himself as we drank several glasses of wine.

“Why? You still have a crush on her?” I absent-mindedly.

Did I forget to mention? Chanyeol, Aemi, Jihyun and I all used to play together when we were little. Chanyeol had a childhood crush on Aemi. I furrowed my eyebrows in amusement. Don’t tell me this rascal didn’t forget about Aemi yet?

“No way dude! I was like what? Eight? Aha I’m just curious” he replied lightly.

“She’s hasn’t changed a lot. Still just as stubborn, blunt and rude” I chuckled to myself.

“You transferred schools for her. You can’t tell me that you don’t like her,” Chanyeol asked.

“She doesn’t like me” I stated bitterly.

“What? So you confessed?”

I nodded and gulped down the last bit of wine I had left in the glass. I poured another glass of wine aimlessly. I wanted to so badly see Aemi again. I missed her so badly. I haven’t seen her in days. I felt like suffocating. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get myself to stop thinking about her. Spending nights at the club with other girls. Kissing them. Talking to them. Just wasn’t the same. I’m like a lost puppy without his owner. I wonder what she’s up to now…

Aemi’s POV

“I really don’t want to play Jongin…” I said in defeat as he drove around aimlessly for an hour.

“Don’t call me Jongin. Call me Kai,” he said aimlessly as he drove.

“Kai? Isn’t that what Jihyun calls you?”

“Jongin sounds too formal” he chuckled.

“Please drop me off at the bus station. I just want to be alone. Huh?” I requested almost in a tone of plea.

“Am I that annoying?” he asked.

“Shouldn’t you go spend time with your fiancée? Why are you pestering me?” I whined in irritation.

“I don’t want you to be alone. If you’re upset, talk to me. I’m a good listener” he assured me.

“How long did you know about Sooyoung?” I asked without hesitation.

“I don’t know much about her. For as long as I could remember, she was a part of Minho’s life. I only see her probably a couple times a year and then it’s almost like she vanishes”

“Is that really all you know?” I asked skeptically.

“Why would I lie to you? Sooyoung doesn’t seem to be that bad… what you did back there… Why do you hate her so much?” he asked me clueless.

So he doesn’t know anything about Sooyoung… he was an outsider just like me. He knows absolutely nothing… just like me. I shouldn’t have thrown him a tantrum. He didn’t deserve it because he is not part of the problem. He was an outsider. I thought again.

“Just drive… Kai” I muttered.

I fell asleep soon after. I could feel the motion of the car rocking me to sleep. I don’t know where we were but when I woke up hours later, Kai was asleep as well. I guess he didn’t get much sleep either. I looked around and we were parked on a busy street in Gangnam. I turned to my right and I watched as Kai slept peacefully. I never noticed how long his eyelashes were, his perfect face again mesmerized me. His nose, his eyes, his lips… how can anyone be so godlike? Subconsciously and without thinking, I leaned closer to his sleeping body.

“How can someone have such a face?” I asked myself in awe.

Leaning in, I could smell his Burberry cologne. I could hear his steady breathing. Being this close, I had an urge to touch him. His skin seemed so flawless and so soft. Suddenly, I realized that I have been staring for too long.

“I’m beautiful… aren’t I?” he smirked with his eyes still closed.

I widened my eyes in shock. Damn! He was faking the whole time. Now I look like a creep for staring! I quickly sat back in my seat and coughed awkwardly as Kai exaggeratedly feigned a yawn. I rolled my eyes as I avoided his gaze.

“I can’t believe you did that” I commented as I got out of the car.

“Where are you going? Wait! Are you mad at me?” he asked as he followed me into a nearby café.

Jihyun’s POV

I kept recalling the moment when I saw Kai embrace Aemi as I was trying to study for my Biomedical exam tomorrow. He’s never hugged me before. The way he looked at her. The way he Aemi’s hair. The way he whispered in her ears that everything was okay. He’s never done any of that with me… Was I loosing it? Am I hallucinating everything? I remembered back to how close they were on the way to New Zealand. I remembered back to when I called Kai yesterday night about Aemi. She was staying over his house. He’s never insisted on me staying before. Was I being petty? Is this how it feels to be jealous? Our four years together, I never felt jealous because Kai never showed any interest in anyone. There was no need to feel jealous but now… something has changed. Something has changed in Kai.

The once silent and poker faced man was no longer Kai. He now smiles occasionally and is more talkative. He now shows his feelings to others. He eats street food! Why does it seem like he’s changing right in front of my eyes but his change isn’t for me… it’s for Aemi? I realized that I didn’t pick up my pen from the paper in a while and there was now a large ink stain. ARGH! I crumpled the paper and threw it in the garbage.

“Why am I like this lately? Why am I being so petty?” I whispered to myself as I rested my head on my arms. 

Chanyeol’s POV

Today was like any other night. I went to St. 319 and was surprised to see someone new at the club tonight. As I entered, I sat in front of the bar and ordered vodka. I usually don’t sit here but this new girl was absolutely stunning. She was dancing alone. The way her body moved to the beat of the music. Her black strands of loose waves fell loosely on her shoulders as she wore a navy blue strapless body-con dress. She had the most perfect legs I’ve seen in my entire life. In all, she was gorgeous. So I guess I have some company tonight. I walked towards her and when she turned around, I was astounded.
