บท 22: No Turning Back
The bright sunlight that crept through my window woke me up. I thought back to last night when Hyung hugged me from behind.
What did he want to say to me?
I was sure it wasn't just a 'good night' like he had told me. His touch, his warm breath on my skin. I got chills just from thinking about it. My door swung open and Mi-Young stood at the other end of the door.
"Good morning lover! Get up and let's go shopping."
I groaned and pulled my blanket to cover myself.
"I hate shopping! Why Mi-Young?"
"I need your help. You're the only one who knows Jimin Oppa best."
I sat up and stared back at my best friend.
"Why bother me when you can just take him to go get whatever he wants?"
"Then it wouldn't be a surprise. I want to get Oppa a present and then I'm going to confess to him that I like him."
Ouch. That hurted a little bit. Even though I hate shopping, I guess I'll have to tag along if it's for those two.
"Okay, Mi-Youngie. You are lucky I love you girlfriend. Let me get ready real quick and we can go."
"I'll wait for you downstairs!"
She closed my door and I went to wash my face and brush my teeth before changing into some comfy clothes and went downstairs.
My parents had woken up already and gotten breakfast ready, but that wasn't the thing I noticed first. They had suitcases and duffle bags packed.
"Hani, Mi-Young, good morning my girls," my mom called out to us.
"What's all this mom? Where are you and dad going?"
"Well, Mr. and Mrs. Shin convinced us last night to go with them to visit their daughter in Seoul. We got back a little too late last night to talk about it. And since we both have a few weeks off of work, we wanted to take a mini vacation to Jeju Island after our trip to Seoul. We wanted to take you with us, but since Jimin is here so we thought to leave you two to catch up since you've missed him so much."
"BUT MOM! I want to go with you two!"
I really didn't want to go. I just didn't want to be left alone with Hyung.
"Sorry, sweetie. If Jimin wasn't here this summer, we would have taken you for sure. We can't be a bad host for our guest. We'll take you where ever you want to go next summer."
Mi-Young giggled at my pouting to my parents.
"Don't worry. I'll be here to take care of Hani while you two are gone. Have fun."
"Thanks, Mi-Youngie. Do take care of yourself as well. We already told Jimin and we were about to come wake you up to let you know. We'll see you in a few weeks."
And they left. They left their daughter alone, in a house, with a boy who she would jump at any second if there was no one to stop her. This is bad. Really bad. I don't think I'll survive if it is just Hyung and me alone in this house.
"Mi-Young! Stay here with me until my parents come back!"
"Why? What's wrong Hani?"
"Nothing's wrong. It's just that, they've never gone anywhere far without me and I think I'm going to miss them."
"Sure thing Hani. I can stay here with you."
We ate breakfast and left the house shortly after my parents and went to the mall. Mi-Young bought so much stuff. She already has 5 shopping bags full of make-up and clothes in the hour that we've been here.
We walked by a music store and I know how much Hyung loved music so I suggested that we step inside to check out some stuff in there. Mi-Young ended up choosing the latest model of Beats Headphone. Hyung was always listening to music and would always sing to me when we were talking on the phone. He listens to music when he studied too.
We were about to go up to the register to pay for the headphone when two familiar faces walked in through the door. My eyes widen and my mouth hung open as the two saw us and started walking towards us.
"Hi, Mi-Young Noona- Oh, you look familiar. Have we met?" Jungkook asked me when he noticed me next to Mi-Young.
"H-hi Jungkook. It's me Kim Hani," I nervously answered him.
"Oh! Hani? Hi! Nice to see you again. Wow, you look different from the last time I saw you."
The younger one chuckled while eyeing me up and down.
"I didn't know you knew Mi-Young too? What a small world," Hoseok said as he walked up next to Mi-Young.
"You two know Hani too?" Mi-Young asked with a confused expression.
"We met the other night at the club and gave her a ride home. How do you two know each other?"
"This is Hani, my best friend from school. I've told you about her before Hoseok Oppa."
"So you're Mi-Young's boyfriend huh? Thanks for keeping the guys away from my fiancée," Hoseok said smiling at me. Then he winked at me before turning his attention to Mi-Young.
"Jungkook's been bugging Yoongi and me about coming here to get a new speaker. Yoongi was busy so I came with Jungkook. Glad we ran into you. I've missed you," Hoseok said as he gently places a peck on Mi-Young's cheek.
Mi-Young blushed when Hoseok kissed her which I thought was kind of weird. I had thought that she didn't like Hoseok? Maybe she was just a bit shy since I was around.
"Since Hoseok is here, I'll be going now Mi-Young. I already did my part in helping you."
"Okay, that's fine. I'll catch a ride with them."
"I'll see you later Mi-Youngie. Bye Jungkook. See you Hoseok."
I quickly walked out of the store before anyone else could say anything. I needed to get out of there. Nothing is going according to my plan. How am I going to seduce Hoseok now? There's no way he'll look my way knowing that I'm Mi-Young's friend. I'm so screwed.
My phone beeped. I had received a text from a number I didn't know.
'Don't worry. I won't say anything to Mi-Young about what you said to me the other night. It'll be our little secret.'
My eyes widen at the message. My phone beeped again and another text was received.
'I'm still not married yet, so if you want to meet up sometime we can. Just say the time and place and I'll be there.'
I really didn't know how to respond to his text at the moment. I wasn't sure how to feel about the situation either. I know that Mi-Young doesn't like Hoseok and she wants out of the marriage, but why do I still feel like such a shitty friend?
'Let's meet later tonight.' At 10 PM.'
Am I really going to do this? Am I really going to send this text to my friend's fiancé? Before I knew it, I had hit the send button and my text was delivered and read.
'Meet me at our family's hotel. I'll book the biggest suite for us tonight and send you the room number later. Can't wait to see you tonight Hani.'
There's no turning back now.
