Loving You, Was Not Hard

CHAPTER BEFORE PROLOGUE

TRISHA'S POV

I was busy reviewing in my bed when suddenly,  I heard footsteps nearing my door.

I felt my pulse quicken. I was reminded of a warning that a burglar was hiding somewhere in this neighbourhood.

Who could this be? Is.. is it the burglar?!

I was frozen stiff,  and that's when the door opened with a loud BANG!

And there she was. The annoying,  talkative, happy-go-lucky bestfriend of mine.

She was very noisy,  but she's a very, very, good friend.

"Hey Aphy. Thanks for coming quietly,  and not interrupting my studies."

I say with a lot of sarcasm.

"Hehe!! Your welcome!!"

She shouts, wearing that cheeky grin that helps people open up to her and smile.

"I finished your story!"

She shouts,  again.

Huh?

"Wait..what story?"

I ask nervously.

We don't have a project about a story, do we?

I look at her. And seeing that she has the 'are-you-kidding-me' look, I pressume there is none. I know this girl too well. It's not anything serious.

She rolls her eyes."It's your story,  your highness."

Hmm? MY story?

And as if she knew what was on my mind, she started to speak before I could utter any word.

"Its the story of your love life, stupid."

It took minutes before I could process what she was talking about. Then, it came to me.

"Ah!  You mean the story!!"

I blurted out, pointing my finger at her, feeling proud of myself for remembering.

She squeals and reaches her hands out for a high five.

I lift mine and we clap each other's hand repeatedly.

Wondering what the story is?

Well, 5 months ago, My bestfriend, aka Aphy, came running to me with a worried and depressed expression.

She said she didn't have any topic for the story she was going to write, to enter a writing contest.

Me telling her to use my love life as subject was practically a joke. She took it seriously and ran off before I could say that I'm joking.

So she DID use it..

Suddenly,  I see her Look depressed.

" What's wrong? "

I ask her,  worry evident in my voice.

"I kind of won the award and..."

She looked at me, then at the ground,  and at me again.

"..the story got published into a book."

Ohh.. it was just published into a book...

.
.
.

Wait..

"IT WHAT?!"

I shout, obviously shocked at the new news.

"But don't worry! I changed your name!!"

She exclaims, smiling happily.

"Ok.. so you changed my name?" I ask her. 

She paused for a minute and answered:

"Yes"

"To what?"

"What?"

"What name did you use to change my name, Duh."

I spoke,  rolling my eyes.

"Oohh!! Why didn't you tell me that earier?!"

She shouts for the third time in 15 minutes, and my eardrums are starting to actually hurt.

"I just did,  didn't I?"

She looked dumb founded and smirked.

Great. That smirk means something. What kind of foolishness is she trying to do now?

With a snort, she looked sideways. "I changed your name to shin jae."

Okay, so she changed my name...into shin jae.. she...

"YOU WHAT?!"

I look at her, as if I was about to kill her.  If looks could kill, she would be dead right now.

She knows I'm sensitive when it comes to what people call me...

I was cursing stuff at Aphy when she started laughing.

I quickly become agitated.

"Why the bloody hell are you laughing?!"

I shouted.

"And why the hell would you change my name to shin fucking jae or whatever!!!"

I added. I'm sure my face is red right now.

She waves her hand in the air, as if to tell me to calm down.

And it did.

"Woah girl, keep it down. We don't want neighbours to hear us now, do we? Hahah!! You should've seen your face! It was priceless!!"

She laughed hysterically,  and it wasn't funny.

"ONCE MORE, WHY THE BLOODY FUCKING HELL ARE YOU LAUGHING?!"

I shout now,  feeling as if my lungs would jump out.

"Oh shesh. Stop swearing!hahah..."

She speaks. "I didn't change your name into shin 'fucking' jae. I changed it to your favourite name, Athena. Here you go."

She shoved me a book that red:

Loving you was not hard.

"Is this the book?"

I ask.

"Oohh...You're smart."

She stated, as if it was knew knowledge to her.

"Yah. Now go back to your own house, dumbass."

I smile and push her outside my bedroom door using the book.

She smiled and flashed a 'v' sign. And before leaving, she spoke:

"Bye. Smartass."

She left with yet another BANG! on my door.

So let's see this.

I open the first  page.
