Confession
Third Time's The CharmListen to advice and accept discipline, and at the end you will be counted among the wise.
Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.
Proverbs 19:20-21
With enlarged eyes, Krystal simply stared at him, unable to speak. Kang Minhyuk…liked her? There was no way. Could she have just imagined hearing him because her heart desperately wanted to hear it?
That could have been a possibility if she hadn’t seen his lips move. And she definitely saw his lips move. And that’s what stunned her. The fact that he said it. And judging from how he wasn’t cracking into laughter, he seemed serious.
While Krystal was silent from shock, Minhyuk was nervous. Why wasn’t Krystal responding? Was she disgusted from his confession? She was a very popular girl at their college, after all, and recently broke up with her boyfriend, only because he broke up with her, not the other way around. What if she still harbored feelings for her ex? What if she thought receiving a confession from a guy three years older than her who she barely knew was awkward and weird? What if-
“I-” she finally spoke but stopped. Breathing in deeply, she breathing, “Please tell me you're not joking.”
Huh? Minhyuk didn't quite understand what she was saying.
“I-I'm not joking. Why would I joke about this?”
Krystal's face split into a large grin. “You mean you're serious? You actually like me?”
At this, Minhyuk became more confused. “Yes, I actually do,” he repeated slowly.
“Good,” she stated happily, “because I-” she paused, suddenly nervous and shy. “I like you too.”
Now it was Minhyuk who was beaming. “Really? You mean it?”
“Yes,” she laughed, nodding eagerly. And they smiled at each other so happily with smiles so full of love, they could have been exchanging wedding vows and nobody would have guessed otherwise.
With a sudden of boldness, Minhyuk took a step forward, his hands bringing Krystal closer to him. Their sudden proximity of one another surprised her, but in a good way. She was no longer laughing, all too nervous for what he might do next.
Don't let him kiss you! her mind screamed. Did you forget Kai already? You're moving too quickly!!
But it was like her body was disconnected from her mind. Heart pounding, she met his eyes and was unable to look away as his warm gaze searched her eyes. There was just something entrancing about Kang Minhyuk’s eyes, she decided.
