"So you wouldn't mind if I..."

No Matter How Much It Hurts

 

- M i n j u n g

I was at the cafe where Aron worked at. I brought my laptop to imitate the image that I had work to do. I mean, to be very honest, I did want their coffee and cake again, but..I also really wanted to see Aron's face as well. _ _|| 

As I entered the shop, I didn't see Aron waiting the tables. I guess he wasn't working today. Sighing as I took a seat, I checked my blog. I saw that I had gotten a message from one of my followers. They sent me a link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxIJpiS-Avg, telling me how I should listen to the song. I've never heard of the band 10cm before, so I decided to go ahead and click it. Plugging in my headphones, I clicked play, sat back, and listened. On habit, I closed my eyes and listened carefully. Before even the singing began, I could already tell I liked the song. And as he did begin to sing, I could tell I had fallen in love with the song! It literally gave me goosebumps. Without realizing it, I had began to smile because of the beauty of the song. Music these days just don't sound like this anymore. It was very nostalgic; listening to this. So nostalgic and beautiful that I could feel a trickle of a tear drop stream down my face. Believe me, I'm not the type to cry easily, but when it comes to truly beautiful and touching music, it's sometimes impossible not to cry.

I was about to wipe away the tears, but before I could, I felt someone else wipe them for me. o.o;; I slowly opened my eyes and found my face only inches away from Aron's face. e.e||

"W-whoaaa!" I automatically pulled back. He was in his Apron and Vest. Realizing he was the one to wipe my tears, I rubbed my eyes, and said, "O-oh, sorry. E-er, I wasn't crying for real. It's just, this song was really beautiful..erm...Anyways! W-when did you get here? 

"I've been here for a while now," he gave a lazy smiled. Pulling back, he crossed his arms on the table, and rested his chin on his arms. He looked into my eyes. "You're so cute Minjung ah." He then smiled again, super big. 

"'C-cute'? 'Minjung ah'?" I repeated what he had said. How is it that he can be so..random? 

"Mhm. :) We are close friends now aren't we? Let's be a little less formal with names," he said. "C'mon, you try too! Call me...'Aron Oppa.'"

"Psshh, NO!" I laughed. 

"C'mooonn, just once?" 

"Nope~" 

"Tch, fine," Aron pouted. As I saw his kiddish face, I couldn't help but laugh. Suddenly Aron stopped pouting though, and rested his chin on his arms again. He slightly tilted his head and opened his mouth to speak. "Minjung ah." 

"Hm?" I stopped laughing.

"You're really pretty," he smiled again. "Beautiful; when you smile." With this, he got up. "Well, work calls." Although he said this, he just kept looking into my eyes. He then leaned in, close to my face and said, "Minjung ah. Don't cry, okay? Because Aron is here...don't cry." He gave a gentle, soft smile, and held his eyes to mine for a minute longer, then walked back to the kitchen. 

Once he had gone, I held up my hand to my chest once again. I stared at the doors of where he had went inside. "Chincha..Aron..I really don't know what this feeling is..." I smiled and whispered to myself. "It feels nice though..it's warm." Not being able to contain it anymore, I smiled; big and wide. I probably looked like a huge idiot who was smiling to herself, but at the moemnt, I just didn't care. 

As I was sitting there, alone, one of the pretty unnie waitresses came over and set a mug of coffee on my table. I read her name tag, and said, "U-um, Kahi-shi, I don't think this is mine, I haven't ordered yet." 

"Oh no, this is definitely yours. Someone personally asked me to deliver this to you," she smiled, and tilted her head slighty to Aron, who was now out and waiting other tables. "He's a nice kid. That Aron." She gave a sort of sistarly smile, and looked at me. "Enjoy your coffee miss." and she left to go deliver someone elses coffee. Weird..but what a nice and pretty unnie. ; u ; 

I held the mug with both of my hands, looked at the coffee, and smiled. On top of the coffee, the foam, it read. "Fighting!" with a cute little cat face smile. I obviously smiled, but I just couldn't bring myself to ruin the coffee by drinking it right away. After taking a picture, I did end up drinking it though. It turned out to be even more amazing than the last one I had last time I was here. 

After a while of working on editing, I decided to clean up and go. However, this time, I didn't leave when it was Aron's time to get off work. Not wanting to disturb his work, I decided to simply leave quietly. 

The sun was just beginning to set. I stuffed my hands in my pockets, and began on my way home. It wasn't long until I heard someone shout my name with an oh so familiar voice. I turned around to the voice. Like how I said before, the sun was just beginning to set, and the sky was a beautiful orange. And as I turned, I couldn't help but squint, because the sun was waayyy too bright. However, without even having to see who's face the voice belonged to, I knew exactly who it was. "Aron," my lips whispered as it formed a smile . "Wow, this always seems to happen to us, huh?" I half laughed. "And..aren't you supposed to be working now?"

His hands were on his knees as he was panting. He then held one hand up, as if telling me, "one moment." I laughed again. Once he had caught his breath, he looked up and replied, "Just got out of work." I noticed that his sweater wasn't fully on correctly, and he still had his apron on as well. 

"Er..you sure about that?" I eyed his apron. I could see his face fluster for once. He quickly took it off and stuffed it in his bag. 

"O-oh, I must have been in such a hurry that I forgot to take it off," he stuttered. I laughed at this, because typically it was always me being flustered and stuttery. As he was walking beside me, I bumped him playfully. 

"D'aw. Look at you, trying to act cool," I smiled. 

"I-I forgot. Chincha," he looked to the ground. 

"Uh-huh," I gave him a weird look. Because he was so tall, I had to stand on my tippy-toes to ruffle his hair. "You're so cute when you're embarassed," I said without really thinking. And suddenly, the atmosphere..changed. e u e Erm.. 

Aron looked up and smile, "Chincha? You really think so?" e u e Wat. 

I was about to tell him to forget what I just said, but then I realized. What was the point of even trying to cover it up anymore? So I simply nodded and responded with a, "Mhm." With this, Aron plopped in front of me, halting my walking. 

"Chincha? Chincha, Chincha? AWAHH. Minjung-ahhhhhh~" Aron ooed. e u e

"E-erm..yeah?" I answered, a bit confused at the sudden aegyo he was giving.  And at this point, Aron's face was super close to mine. I slightly pulled away from the sudden closeness. I guess he took it the wrong way and moved back as well. 

"M-mianhae. I got overly excited. I didn't mean to get too close," he scratched his head and nervously laughed. At this, I laughed as well, and this caught his attention. "Psh, what's so funny?" 

"Oh nothing," I laughed again. 

"Is there something on my face or clothes? Tell me Minjunnngggg D:" 

'It's nothing, I swear." 

"Uh-huh," he cutely pouted and crossed his arms. "Fine, don't answer me," he then began to walk back to the shop. Oh my god..djoidhs 

"Pfft, okay okay. Really..I'm only laughing at how..cute you are," I gave in. Aron then uncrossed his arms and walked back by my side. He no longer had a pout on his face, but instead, a soft smile. He didn't say one word. We just sort of walked home in silence. Eventually, Aron began to talk again. 

"So..how are you with skinship?" he asked at random. 

"Um...I'm fine with it. I mean, I don't mind it too much if it's a close friend--" 

"--Then I guess you wouldn't mind if I did this?" He took his hand and wrapped it around mine. o u o;;; My eyes widened at the sudden touch, except, I couldn't reply. I couldn't even speak! "I guess you don't mind then. After all, we are good friends." He laughed and held my hand in a firmer grip. 

For the rest of the walk home, he continued to hold my hand. His hand was warm, and comforting. I liked it..Anyways. Eventually, he began to start a conversation, but I was still too dazed to really reply to him. I could only nod and stare at the ground, but he didn't seem to mind. He just kept the conversation going..somehow..

When we had arrived at my house, he let go of my hand and told me, "Thank you for letting me hold your hand. My hands were getting cold." He smiled. He told me goodnight and soon  went on his way back to his apartment which wasn't far from where I lived. I quickly unlocked the doors to my house, went straight to my room, and plopped on my bed. Holding up my hand he held, I stared at it and said, "Liar..Your hands weren't cold at all. They were perfectly warm..My hands were the cold ones." I couldn't help but chuckle at myself. "But nice excuse Kwak Aron, nice excuse." 

Plugging in my headphones, I played 10cm once again, and fell fast asleep.
