*Ding dong, ding dong
“Kyuhyunnie, can you help open the door please?”
“I’m setting the table right now. Hyung! Open the door.”
“Coming.”
Jungsoo
head to the door and open it to greet the guest at the door. But, to his
surprises, it is an unexpected guest. Both of them look at each other
without any words coming out from their mouth.
“Jungsoo oppa, are you not going to invite us in?” Ha Nee who feel a little bit awkward at the side ask, jokingly.
“Huh? Oh, that’s right. Come in.” he said, moving to the side a bit, to give them space to enter.
“How come you are here?” he asks, out of curiosity.
“We’re
invited. Why? We can’t?” Soo Il asks him back, throwing her unsatisfied
feeling towards Jungsoo for this few days right to the guy himself.
Looking into Soo Il eyes that darted into his, Jungsoo felt guilty..
“That’s not what I mean.” He wasn’t able to talk more when his mom come out from the kitchen.
“Soo Il…you came?” she ask and hug the girl.
“Erm..yeah…” she said, and hug Mrs. Park back. Mrs. Park did the same to Ha Nee.
“Happy Anniversary, auntie.” She said, handing out the paperbag to Mrs. Park and add,
“Something from both of us.”
“Aww…that’s
so sweet of you. Thank you girls. I’ll show this to your uncle later.
Oh, you still didn’t meet him yet, right? He’ll come down later. Now,
come. Let’s have a sit.”
“Is there anything we can help with?” Soo Il ask.
“Don’t
worry. Everything is done already. Our maid will serve the food in a
short while. Just wait here okay? I’m going up for a minute.”
The two girls nod.
Jungsoo who is looking at them from the side let out a small chuckle.
*****
Jungsoo’s POV
Mom…since when did she become close with the girls?
Looking at Soo Il, I sigh. But then a smile unconsciously created.
I
miss her. It has been a while since I last saw her with the big smile
pasted on her face. She’s always gloomy whenever I see her in college
this past few days, since…
I sigh, again. It’s all my fault.
“Jungsoo hyung.” Kyu called.
“Erm?”
“Palli. Everything is ready. Soo Il, Ha Nee, come. Dinner is ready. Come, let’s eat.”
I wait till Soo Il and Ha Nee walk pass me first before I start heading to the kitchen too.
*****
Soo Il’s POV
The
dinner is so awkward. At least it is for me. Can’t this guy just eat
his food and stop staring at me? I can’t even swallow my food because of
him. What’s wrong with him?
“Soo Il, you got a hole on your face.”
“Huh?” I said, startled.
“I said, you’ve got a hole on your face.” He repeat and give his hyung a smile.
Everyone laugh at Kyuhyun’s joke, except Jungsoo and me.
“That’s
right. Stop staring at her Jungsoo. She can’t even eat comfortably. Soo
Il, just ignore him and eat. We will have dessert after this. I heard
both of you loves blueberry cheesecake, so I baked one.”
I smile to Mrs. Park and unconsciously kicked Jungsoo’s leg. I just realize it after it was done.
“Ouchh…”
Everyone turn to look at Jungsoo.
I
guess everyone knew what’s going on when Jungsoo gives me that
unsatisfied look. Once again, everyone is laughing. I can feel that face
is burning right now.
“Serve you right, Jungsoo.” Mr. Park said, jokingly.
After that, the dinner continua, with no more Jungsoo’s stare.
*****
“Thanks
for coming, Soo Il, Ha Nee. It’s a pleasure to get to know both of
you.” Said Mr. Park, when they are sending off the girls at the door.
“Is it really okay for you girls to go back by yourself? It’s late already.”
“It’s only 10, aunty. Don’t worry. We got Soo Il here.” Ha Nee replied, faking a whisper at the last part.
Mr. and Mrs. Park laugh at her joke.
“Okay then. But make sure to take care. Call us if there’s anything.” Said Mrs. Park.
“How are they supposed to call us when they don’t even have our number?” Mr. Park ask his wife, jokingly.
Hearing that, Mrs. Park replies him with a hit on his arm.
“They got Jungsoo’s and Kyuhyun’s.” she said, and add,
“Speaking of them, where are they?”
Ignoring Mrs. Park last question, Soo Il said,
“Don’t
worry aunty. We will be fine. I think we need to head off now. Good bye
aunty, uncle. Thanks for inviting us today. And, glad to know you
uncle.”
They both bow a little and start to walk off the door.
“Won’t you wait for Jungsoo and Kyuhyun first?”
“No, aunty. It’s okay. Maybe they’re busy with the cleaning. We feel sorry for not helping with that.”
“Do not feel sorry. We got the maid afterall.”
Soo Il give her a smile.
“We will off first then. Thanks for tonight aunty.” And they both walked off the door.
“Wait.”
Suddenly a voice calling out for them. They turned back and see Kyuhyun
and Jungsoo are already at the door. Kyuhyun, the one who called for
them earlier walked to them.
“You’re going back already?” he asks.
“Erm..It’s going to be late soon.” Ha Nee replies him.
“Let me send you home. Won’t it be dangerous for both of you to get home by yourself?”
“No, Kyuhyun. It’s okay. It is not that late yet.” It’s Soo Il who replied this time.
“But both of you are girls. We don’t know what could be happen, right?”
“It’s okay, Kyu…” she didn’t finish her sentence when someone grab her wrist.
“Kyu, send Ha Nee home. I’ll take Soo Il with me.”
Soo Il, who is a bit surprised by the sudden act, just follow him when Jungsoo pull her hand and walk to the car.
