# Special Chapter : KyuNee Story Episode 2

“What else do we need?” asks Kyuhyun.

“We’ve already got the snacks, ddukbokki, anchovies, carrot, chicken, fishcakes, ham…” and she keep counting things they have put in the trolley.

“What else did we miss?” she asks back.

“Chili paste? Did we take that already?” he asks while roaming through the trolley.

“Chili paste? No, no, we didn’t take it yet.  Do you have it at home?  We only will use some. Give your mom a call and ask her.” She suggests.

Kyuhyun suddenly stops the trolley and point at the rack on their left.

“Let’s just take one. If mom already have it, we’ll just keep this one and use it next time.” He said and takes a pack of chilli paste.

Kyuhyun look into their trolley and scan through it for a while.

“I think we’ve got everything.”

“Are you sure?” she asks.

“I think so.” He reply.

“That’s why I said we need a list.”

“Didn’t you make one?”

“I don’t have time to. Soo Il talk to fast.” She said, pouting.

He laughs at her remark.

“I think we’ve got everything already. If there’s anything we missed, we’ll just buy it at the mini mart near my house.”

“There’s a mart near your house? So why are we here?” she asks, confused because it takes more than half an hour to get there.

“Huh? Owh…err…we’ll get more options here.” He reasoned and gives her a smile.

They walk to the counter and shocked with the long queue they need to wait. Thanks to Kyuhyun that he is high enough to spot the shortest line far on their right. Ha Nee quickly slide through the queues and wait for Kyuhyun and the trolley on the line he point out earlier. About five minutes later, it’s already their turn. While emptying their trolley, Ha Nee suddenly realize that there’s still something missing.

“Kyu, we forgot the seaweed. How are we going to make seaweed soup without the seaweed? Wait a second, I’ll go get it.”

“Ha Nee.” He calls but she already dash to the dry food section to take the dry seaweed.

She’s back a minute later, breathing hard, with the seaweed pack in her hand.

“Wow…you are fast.” He said, taking the seaweed from her, put it on the counter and then pat her back, in hopes it’ll help her cool down her breath.

After he’s done with the payment, Kyuhyun looks for Ha Nee who said she’ll wait outside. But, she was nowhere to be found. He then takes his phone and dialled ‘4’ for her quick-dial number. He suddenly hears a phone ringing near his right ear. He turns to his right and saw a phone that he know very well hanging from the owners hand who is standing behind him. He turns to her and replies her bright smile before cancelling his call.

“Where have you been?” he asks.

“I was in the toilet. Are you done?”

“Urm.”

“Let’s go then.” She said and walks ahead.

Kyuhyun is going to follow Ha Nee’s step when something draws his attention.

“Ha Nee.” He calls.

Ha Nee, pretending not to hear the call, keep walking to the entrance.

“Ha Nee.” He calls again, a bit louder.

She knows she can’t pretend anymore. So, she stops and turns to him.

“You called me?” she asks.

“Yeah.” He said, eyeing her.

She’s going to get a scold – that’s what she’s thinking right now.

Kyuhyun pull her to the side, trying not to block other people’s way. He then takes a look at Ha Nee’s elbow.

“What happened?” he asks, looking intensely at the scratch on her elbow.

“Err…this? I fall awhile ago, when I was looking for the seaweed.”

“You fall? Since when did you become as clumsy as Soo Il?” he said while looking for more scratches on her arm, and there wasn’t any. He’s relief.

While on the other side, Ha Nee was going to reply him that the floor was kind of slippery but she decides not to. Kyuhyun can be scary too, sometimes.

“Did you hurt anywhere else?” he looks at her, asking, and she shakes her head.

“Why didn’t you tell me? It’s bleeding.”

“It WAS bleeding, Kyu. I’ve clean the blood in the toilet earlier. It’s just a small scratch. I’m fine. It’s no big deal.” She catch him staring at her, and he sigh.

“Come.” He said and pulls the girl’s hand.

He looks around and finally found what he is looking for near the entrance. He put all the plastic bags he’s holding on one side of the bench and ask Ha Nee to sit on the other side.

“Where are you going?” she asks.

“Just wait here. I won’t be long.” He said and goes through the entrance once again.

Not awhile after Kyuhyun leaves, Ha Nee heard her name being called.

“Cho Ha Nee.”

[Ha Nee’s POV]

“Cho Ha Nee.”

I heard someone calling my name. I turn around and there he is, standing right in front of me with his infamous killer smile. But, I won’t get ‘killed’ anymore.

“Choi Minho.” I said, in a low voice but it was loud enough to be heard by him.

“Oh, you still remember me? I know you will.” He said, still not brushing off the smile from his face.

I really don’t want to talk with this guy. Without even realizing it, I’m boiling inside.

“What are you doing here?” I ask, trying not to be rude by keeping silence.

“Obviously,” he said and shows me the plastic bags he’s holding, indicating ‘shopping’.

“What are you doing here?” he asks me back.

I point at the plastic bags by my side and add,

“Obviously.”

He laughs.

“I mean, here.” He said, pointing at where he’s standing.

“Are you waiting for someone?” he continues.

I was too annoyed to even give him a reply.

“Ah…Soo Il?” he add, and laugh again.

“What are you trying to say?” I ask, don’t really want to entertain him.

“You should find a boyfriend, Ha Nee.” He said, and continues again, not giving me chance to reply.

“But I know you won’t. You love me afterall.”

“Says who?”

“You.” He said arrogantly.

I sigh.

“Don’t you ever forget that I dump you, Minho.” I remind him.

“And that’s because Soo Il told you to, right? I know you would never just leave me like that and forget me because you love me too much.”

I am speechless. Now, he starts to irritate me.

“It’s been years, Minho. What makes you think that I would never forget you in this past two years? In fact, I did forget you right after our break-up. You are not worth even a tiny space of my heart, Choi Minho.”

He looks shocked with my answer but that’s just for awhile.

“If that is true, why are you here, alone, without any guy by your side?”

I chuckle. This guy sure is funny, and annoying.

“You really need to watch before talk, Minho.”

“Why?” he asks, and seconds after, his eyes widened.

“Oh my god. You got a new boyfriend already? Seriously?”

“Why not?” I ask.

“Why not?” he imitates me.

“Ha Nee, don’t lie to me. I know you well.” He adds.

“No, you don’t.”

“Yes, I do. You should be thankful, you know. You’re lucky enough that I was your boyfriend or you might not even experience being in love at all, just like your so-call bestfriend.”

I wasn’t intended to but I got up and nearly slap him, if it’s not because of Kyu.

“Ha Nee.” He called out, when my hand was nearly flying up.

I turn to him and saw him staring at Minho.

“Who is this?” they both ask, at the same time.

I look at them both. I don’t know if I should really introduce them to each other. Kyuhyun then take the initiative to introduce himself.

“Hi, I’m Park Kyuhyun.”

“Oh, hi. I’m Choi Minho.”

Hearing the name, Kyu look at me – as expected. He wants a confirmation. I give him a weak smile.

And not even realizing the situation, Minho keep talking to Kyu, being the annoying him.

“Well. Park Kyuhyun-shi. Are you Ha Nee’s boyfriend or what?”

Kyuhyun turn to Minho and give him a smile. A big smile, showing all his white teeth.

I was going to say no when he suddenly cut me.

“No.” he said.

Oh no. I look at his curled palm. He was serious about that?

“I’m her boyfriend-to-be.”

Huh?

Huh??!

The next thing I know, Minho is already lying on the floor. And I can’t even think of what Kyu had said earlier because everything had become a chaos.
