My new friend
Why Not? "Hiatus"
I finished packing up my belongings and went downstairs to grandma she had made us tea and there stood two cups ready on the table. I sat down and looked shyly over at her. "You've finished packing up?" she asked. I nodded. "Drink your tea before it gets cold." grandam smiled and slurped from her own tea. With a smile I grabbed my my cup and took a sip. The tea was so hot I burned my tongue immediedly. "Aouch!" I burst out. Grandma looked worried and I said that everything was fine. But secretly I was craving for something really cold.
"So how are you, dear?" I knew she was talking about my dad and his death. I tried my best not to cry. "I'm fine." I lied. I quickly drank my tea to get away from the talking. Grandma sent you away to the store with a long shopping-list. As I was walking I thought of how weird it was to be in Korea, and not home in Ireland. Everything was new, though I had been here many times before. But now I was supposed to live here!
I tucked the shopping-list from my pocket and looked up what I would find first. Bread. The bread section was easy to find and I chooses the usual. After fifteen minutes my basket was almost full, now I only had to find the delicious bananamilk. I looked for the milk section and... Found it! The last bottle of bananamilk was right before me and I was just about to take it when I saw an other hand reaching for it at the same time. I looked at my right and saw this boy. He looked at me too. We both made a grab for it but he won, he was faster. I blushed but he just smiled. "Here you go" he said and smiled. "Thank you" I said with a shy voice.
**Mr.Mysterious's P.O.V **
I noticed she was on her way to leave but I couldn't just let her slip away. For once, I decided to actually do something. I placed my hand on her shoulder for a try to make her stay. She stayed. I saw her turn around looking a bit afraid. I smiled at her to make her stay calm and told her my name. I thought she would reply with her own name but she was quiet.
"So... What's your name?" I asked. "Lee Hana" she said. It's a beautiful name. She was looking down and I didn't want her to think it was awkward or anything so I lifted her chin to look at me. Maybe it was too much.. I asked her if she wanted to spend a few hours with me and when she said yes I was really happy. I just kept smiling. I followed her home so she could leave her stuff, and then we went past me so I could drop off my things. Then I took her to the park where we sat down by the pond, just talking.
**Hana's P.O.V**
I awkwardly turned around to walk away, but I felt a hand on my shoulder. I froze but turned back around and found the boy smiling at me. "I'm SungJong" he introduced himself. I completely froze. He seemed to be waiting for me to say something. "So... what's your name?" He asked. Oh, of course that was what he was waiting for. "Oh... Lee Hana" I answered and blushed hard while looking down at the floor. He lifted my chin, made me look at him. SungJong smiled, making my knees go weak.
"Do you want to kill a few hours?" I started to feel sweaty. "Uhm.. Sure" I replied nervously. The both of us paid for our products and we decided to leave them at home first. He followed me to the door, waiting outside. I walked inside. "Hey grandma, I'm going out for a while" I said happily. She smiled at me and thanked me for shopping what she needed. I gave her a hug and walked out again. SungJong was still waiting where he had promised. He took me to the park with this beautiful pond and we sat down on an old bench close to it(after he had left his stuff of course).
We started talking about many different things, I don't know why but I started to open up and I even told him about my parents. I guess I thought I could trust him, but I felt the tears building up in my eyes. No! No! No! Don't cry now! I thought to myself. But I couldn't hold them in. It all got very emotional and the next second I felt his arms tightly wrapped around me. I buried my face in his chest and tried to stop crying but flashbacks took place in my head, making me cry even more. I felt so bad for giving SungJong this impression but it was so hard to cope with these feelings.
After a while I got calmer and I looked up at him. "I'm so sorry" I apologized and wiped away the tears. He looked back at me and smiled; "Don't sorry yourself" he said. "I'm your friend, I'm supposed to be here with you, trying to cheer you up". A smile wasn't enough to show how happy I was to hear that. "It's getting late though, and as your friend I suggest you to go home now so nothing bad happens" he gazed over the darkness. I sighed and nodded. Once again he followed me to the door and gave me a goodbye-hug. I was just about to go inside as he called my name. I turned around and looked at him. "Yes?" "Maybe I can take your number?" he asked cutely. I giggled and gave him my number and he gave me the promise to text as soon as he got home. We said goodbye, again, but before I went inside he shouted "Goodnight, Noona~!" and then he was gone.
"I almost started to worry about you" grandma said. "I'm whole, but tired" "you better go to sleep so you have energy left for tomorrow". I did what she said and brushed my teeth and went to bed. I heard this little noise and discovered a text. It's from 'Jongie~! He wrote me goodnight and ended with his name. I replied "goodnight" and added a smiley. I fell fast asleep, thinking about him and everything we talked about.
