"Love Barrier" | Kim Mingyu

28

Only just now, I realised how lucky I am. Growing up with no friend (had one but gone to heaven) and now I have 13. Funny right? These boys show me how precious life can be when you have back up, have people to go to, to bicker with, to take you to every new café because you like taking pictures and people who got you two sets of Dyson Airwrap just because they don't know what colour you prefer. All of this comes in a form of friendship. A friendship that don't hold grudges and can forgive you so easily. They're forever my boy and I'll forever be their girl.

Truly a god's blessing.

"Are you two a thing?" Wonwoo's sister throw one question that got me off guard because she's referring to me and Mingyu. I can feels both our hearts jump out at the same time.

Before we can deny, her mother also added, "I was about to ask too." She said so casually while chewing on her food. The boys start bursting out laughing, they thought it was a ridiculous question, not knowing the ridiculous thing she said is the last thing we want them to find out. I'm sure they can feel the high tension between us and how we look at each other when our friends were being too careless to notice these small gestures.

Wonwoo who still chuckling, turning to his mother and answer for us who are completely dumbfounded on the spot. "Mom, Mingyu has a girlfriend." He continues, "Don't you remember Nabi? She was here before."

Her again.

"Oh right! I remember her." She tell Mingyu, very interestedly. "Next time take her with you okay?" He nodded awkwardly at her as we make eyes contact.

The boys enjoy the dinner so much, they talk, they make jokes, they play around like how they always do and they drink with Wonwoo's parents, who being the chillest parents I've seen.

But I don't drink neither I say anything, I just look at Mingyu, plainly, because right now this feel like someone has just slapped me right in the face. I better get slapped than to have people cluelessly insulted me like that. Not their fault, they don't know anything, but at this moment I feel so angry, so upset and so disappointed and I don't know who to blame. Maybe Mingyu?

Or maybe myself.
