Chapter 19 : The Prank
Jinho's Story28 August 2016 (Sunday), 4.50 p.m.
Nayeon : Momo asked your friend, Jinho, out! They're on a date right now!
That wasn't true. The truth is that me, Sky, and Momo were just outside the karaoke booth, trying to listen in on their conversation.
Momo suggested that I come over to help prank Dahyun and Mina. I thought about it, but I decided I couldn't. When asked why, I confessed that I had dated Mina and we broke up. At first, I thought they would understand and leave me alone, but Nayeon was very persuasive. She kept telling me that I should still be friends with Mina, and be on good terms with Dahyun.
Thinking about it that way, I think she was right. I should try to reconnect with those two, as friends. Sky couldn't be happier for me and decided to tag along.
In the karaoke booth, I couldn't see it, but I could tell they were surprised.
Dahyun : They are both on a date?!!
Mina seemed sad. She turned her head to the side, afraid that Nayeon would see her sad face.
Nayeon : Mina, are you okay?
Dahyun went to Mina's side to comfort her.
Dahyun : Can I tell her?
Mina nodded as she felt like she could cry at anytime. Dahyun explained to Nayeon about Mina.
Dahyun : Mina unnie had dated Jinho before. They broke up, but Mina is still getting over him.
Nayeon acted surprised.
Nayeon : Really?!! And now, he's dating Momo?!! I'm gonna call her right now and tell her!
Me and Sky almost laughed at Nayeon's exaggeration. I felt bad for Mina, but it's too late to stop now. What came next surprised me.
Mina : No, don't!
Mina wasn't crying, but her eyes were definitely teary.
Mina : Momo unnie asked him out, didn't she? Don't tell her anything. Jinho has moved on too. They deserve to be happy.
Nayeon : Even so, you think he should be dating Momo?!!
Dahyun : Enough, Nayeon! Mina says she's okay with them dating! Leave it alone.
I was very happy to hear that Mina just wanted me to be happy, but I wish things could be different between us right now. I looked at Momo and asked her for a favor.
Jinho : Momo, don't exaggerate, okay? I don't think it's smart if you cry.
Momo : I know. It's okay.
After that, Momo was on standby. She was ready to enter the room.
Nayeon : I don't think I'll forgive Jinho for what he's doing now!
We were holding our laughter. Momo calmed down and regained her facial expression. Slowly, she entered the room.
Mina : Eh? Momo?
Nayeon : What happened with Jinho?
Momo made a sad face. She took a seat next to Mina.
Momo : Jinho said he still likes you. He couldn't go through with our date.
Mina was surprised to hear that. She quickly hugged Momo and comforted her.
Mina : I'm sorry. This is my fault. He told you everything?
Momo : He told me that you were the one that broke up with him.
Momo and Mina looked at each other. They appeared to begin getting emotional.
Mina : That's right. I broke up with him. I've been avoiding him since then.
Momo : Why did you hurt him?
She was surprised to hear Momo asking that. I was even more surprised as I told her not to exaggerate!
