Wrong Character › Wonwoo ✔

chapter 22

"Uh hahaha yea..." Jihyeon fakes a chuckle.

"Although I really love reading, I don't really have time to read due to my packed schedule, " wonwoo trails his finger over a towering bookshelf nearby. His fingertips turned grey and black from the dust that was collected. "Such a pity, right? There's no point for this room if no one is using it. "

"Well, you got me. I can help you clean this place! And and... I can read all these books for you! It wouldn't take me long! I can read about 3 to 5 books a day! I may be busy with school but it won't stop me from reading."

"Then... Would you like to have this library?" Jihyeon immediately jumped out of her skin. Have this room all for herself? Yes please!

"Oh, yes please! " jihyeon squealed. The beaming smile on jihyeon's face made wonwoo's heart melt. She's such a precious girl. Why does she have to do this to his poor heart ?

♕♕♕♕♕

It seems that the cozy atmosphere and the silence that filled the whole room made jihyeon eyes heavy. The book she has in her hand was just contributing to weight she felt on her eyelids.

"Already sleepy? " wonwoo chuckled as he looked over at jihyeon who got a shock from him voice.

"Tsk.No." jihyeon sits up straight and tries her best to keep her eyes wide open.

"Stop trying." wonwoo places a pillow on his lap then signals jihyeon to come over. Obeying, jihyeon lays her head on the pillow.

"Remember when you used to tell me stories before I go to sleep?"

Of course Wonwoo remembers. Once jihyeon falls into slumber land, he would always take the opportunity to look at jihyeon's sleeping face. "What? You want me to tell you one now? "

"Well, your voice is very soothing like an ASMR artist. So, yes. Got any stories? "

Wonwoo placed both of his hands on jihyeon's head. Gently, he starts to caress her black long hair. "I got a good one. Once upon a time, there lived a idiot girl named Park jihyeon. "

"Hey! "

"Don't interrupt my story," Wonwoo place his finger to his lips. "one day, jihyeon thought it'd be a good idea to summon a fictional character from a book. She tried to summon the ugly frog Kim mingyu. However, she got the dashing Jeon won- "

"Stop pleasing yourself. " jihyeon snorted.

"HOWever, she got jeon wonwoo. The evil prince of the story. Now, wonwoo... Well he's a dickhead. "

Jihyeon nods her head. "Glad you know that. "

"To him, jihyeon was his slave. He has to always come first before anything else that she has. For two months, jihyeon suffered under wonwoo. She suffered so much that she got hurt. Because of her injury, it made wonwoo realized what a horrible person he is and how he has affected someone's life. As a promise, he promised to take care of jihyeon. One night, the two of them went to a carnival. Although jihyeon has not fully recovered from her injury, she brought wonwoo to the carnival which he badly wanted to go. On one of the rides, wonwoo asked why did she have to do this for him and she replied: "because I care about you. I knew you were about to ditch out on this because of my leg but I couldn't just say no to you. You were so excited to go and my leg isn't going to stop you from enjoying yourself. So yea. I'm glad you had fun." "

"Wow you actually remembered what I said? "

"Yes. That's because those words made wonwoo felt awestruck. He felt like he was the nerdy girl of a romance story who laid her eyes on the cutest guy In school and immediately had a crush on him. And that was what wonwoo had. A crush on jihyeon."
