I'm sorry.

Sticky Note

 

“Here’s the list, brat.” Your mom shoved the sticky note on your forehead, and you groaned, as it blocked the view – Overdose MV – you were watching on your phone. “Mom!”

 

“Enough with Sejung, and get your off to the market now!”

 

“Mom, it is Sehun, not Sejung!”

 

Ignoring you, she walked back to the kitchen, and you sighed. Standing up, you paused the video and shoved the phone in your pocket. You had no choice but to follow your mom’s commands or you won’t have to eat her delicious meal. Food was the next important thing in your heart after EXO, so you went out, and walked as quickly as possible to the streets of Apgujeong.

 

 

 

You were just about to stroll in the supermarket’s entrance when you caught sight of a tall brunette guy just standing few meters in front of you. Unconsciously, you stopped in your steps, and stared for a while. It weirdly made you feel giddy and excited. Why did the guy remind you of someone? And the next thing you knew, you started assuming silly things. What if it was actually him? What if you’re not just assuming things because it’s really him?

 

Wait, no. Stop being stupid! It’s not him. You shook your head incredulously, chuckling. You decided to shrug the thoughts off and continued on your way.

 

Ironically, the first on your mom’s list was – flour – and the guy was standing near that section. You took in a deep breath, trying to calm your already accelerating heartbeat, trying to tell yourself that it’s no big deal…

 

But, not a moment later, he suddenly turned his head, and it gave you access to his face’s side profile. And that’s when you froze completely.

 

You couldn’t believe it at first. You even slapped your cheek to make sure you weren’t hallucinating and dreaming.

 

Staring up at him, dumbfounded, you tried to process what was actually happening...

 

…oh god, no doubt it was….

 

You widened your eyes and your jaw dropped. You felt your knees wobbling, and as quickly as possible, you hid behind the opposite section.

 

And that’s when it finally dawned upon you. He’s… he’s totally right in front of your very eyes… Your one and only bias, Oh Sehun, was just anarm-reach distance from you!

 

Wait, what? Sehun? Sehun…… oh my god!! SEHUN!!!

 

You clamped your hands to your mouth. And you tried hard to muffle the scream that was itching to come out.

 

After few seconds of just standing there, you haven’t even realized that he was already in the counter, paying for the things he bought, and then before he could actually walk out of the store and before you could even miss the chance, without thinking, you ran to his hide and beamed.

 

“Sehun oppa!”

 

He was startled, and once he saw you (with a confused, puppy face), you felt like you’re going to faint right on the spot. You just had an eye-contact with him. He actually, stared into your eyes. You can die happily now.

 

But that’s when the cute face you’re crazy for turned into a frown. And that’s when you finally realized what you just did…

 

You returned back to senses when he turned back to the cashier, getting his credit card back, and you felt your heart crack. Ouch, he just ignored me.

 

That hurt, but you still have your hopes up though. By the end of the day, you’d get him to talk to you and you’re going to make sure to have a selca with him. Just by imagining it, you mentally cried in bliss.

 

When he started walking away, you followed him – of course you didn’t have bad intentions, you just didn’t want to miss this chance – so you tried again. “Hey, Sehun oppa, I—”

 

You jumped when he turned around swiftly, your face almost bumping his chest, and your face heated up. “Do you need something?”

 

“H-huh?” for a moment, you were stunned by the small twitch of his lips. He’s smiling at me, oh my god.

 

“I said do you need something?”

 

“I… I…” you bit your lip hard to stop the wide grin, and as how you planned the first meeting in your head, you bowed and introduced yourself. “Annyeonghaseyo oppa! I’m actually your fan!”

 

Is this the start of our love story? …

 

But the moment he dropped the smile on his face, replacing it with a blank one, your face fell. “Obviously.”

 

… I guess, not.

 

You blinked, a bit bothered at the sudden change of atmosphere.

 

“Were you following me the whole day?” he asked, rather coldly.

 

And that’s when you realized what the real situation was.

 

W-wait a second … does he think I'm a  NO way!

 

“No!” your face fell and shook your head. “No I wasn’t—“

 

“But I saw you when I entered the supermarket a while ago.”

 

“Yeah, b-but—“ Your sentence wasn't finished when he cutted you off.

 

“I’m sorry to say this but…” he raked his fingers through his hair, before he spoke, “…can’t fans like you just, please, leave us alone? Because we’re already tired coping up with sasaengs like you.”

 

…there he just said it. I knew it … He just thought I’m a sasaeng. Great.

 

You fell silent and your heart sank deeper.

 

Sehun sighed softly. “I’m sorry if ever my words sounded off mean and… if I hurt your feelings… but, we have feelings too. Please stop following us around, practically, in everywhere we go. We need privacy too, don’t we? It’s okay if you only hurt me… but you hurt my hyungs too.”

 

But I’m not…

 

“I’m sorry, oppa…” your excited mood was immediately crushed, and you really felt hurt and upset with the whole situation. You didn’t know it would come to this. And before you know it, you felt your eyes watering, and you bit your lip hard to stop it. Oh my god, you’re seriously not gonna cry! No, just, no.

 

“H-hey, don’t cry…” he murmured, and you frowned, I’m not crying…

 

His face softened as he fished out something from his pocket, offering you his handkerchief. “Here,”

 

Why the hell am I crying…

 

“Oppa, listen…” you sniffed. “I didn’t have bad intentions on following you… I just want a selca or just – just by talking to you actually, I’m already so happy with it, I couldn’t wish for more. But I swear, I’m not a sasaeng. I’m not. And I’ll never be one. I respect your privacy. It just had to be that we went to the same supermarket, and then I was granted to have this chance to finally meet you up close. A-and… I swear, I’m not a sasaeng fan. Please don’t hate me.” More tears flowed down your cheeks, and you wiped it away embarrassingly.

 

He was speechless. You thought he was hesitating whether to believe you or not and maybe doubting what you just said but, you didn’t know if it was just you, because you actually saw guilt filled his eyes.

 

“Really…?” he scratched his neck.

 

You nodded quietly, as you took the moment to wipe the remaining ugly tears on your face. For few seconds, silence engulfed the atmosphere, until he spoke.

 

“I’m sorry…”

 

You smiled a bit, “It’s fine, oppa. I understand. I’m sorry, too.”

 

“But you know… we don’t hate sasaengs.” Sehun returned the small smile, “They’re still our fans no matter what. So… we still treasure them, and for the damages they’ve done to us, we already forgave them.”

 

His words melted your heart and you smiled wider. This was one of the reasons why you love EXO. It’s not just about having the best looks, but they also have such good hearts. And this guy in front of you just proved it.

 

“You guys are so kind~ aigooo it makes us, fans, love you even more.” you gazed at him lovingly.

 

“I know. And also handsome,”

 

It made you chuckle and then suddenly you remembered. “Oh, but oppa, the selca…”

 

“Ah, yeah… sure,” he nodded, closing the distance between the both of you, and in a matter of seconds, you felt the giddiness and excitement building up into you again.

 

You took out your phone, and placing it in front of you, and smiled. Snap.

 

“Omona~” you squealed as you stared at the finished product, before looking back at Sehun. “Thank you so much, oppa!”

 

“It’s nothing,” he grinned.

 

“But, one last question though,”

 

“Yes?”

 

“If I was really a sasaeng, would you still agree to have a selca with me?”

 

He contemplated with the answer for few seconds but at the end he still replied with a, “Yeah, I guess so.”

 


A/N: Yay! It's done. I hope you liked it. And I hope, this simple oneshot, made you learn something. I hope sasaengs, will learn, someday. Sooner, if possible. keke.
