CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

Start from the beginning
                                    

Wonyoung was there, sitting on her bed, still crying and I think it's because of Chuyeon.

"You lied?" I asked with a calm tone.

"I'm sorry," she sobbed. "I just want to tell her so bad, maybe I was to desperate I wasn't even thinking od what's gonna be her reaction" she added.

I sighed, "okay, I'll just have some fresh air" I said before exiting the room, but I wasn't planning for getting fresh air, I was already making my way towards Chuyeon's room.

I open her door only to see Seongmin, sitting beside her bed while holding her hands on his forehead, closing his eyes and probably drifting off to sleep.

"Seongmin?" he immediately turn around to see me.

"You didn't come with the Hyungs?" he asked, I shook my head in response before drifting my eyes on Chuyeon's still unconscious figure.

She has been sleeping for hours.

"Taeyoung?" Seongmin suddenly spoked as he peered glances at me while placing back Chuyeon's hands on the bed. "Can I talk to you?" I nodded my head before sitting down on the other chair that was also beside her bed, as Seongmin was on the left.

"Do you like Chuyeon?" again, I became silent.

What should I say? I can't even think of anything.

"I like her Taeyoung," I couldn't help but get my eyes widened after Seongmin's confession.

"if you like her or not, tell her" he said and I look at him.

"You like her?" I asked.

"yeah," he nodded. "I like her since kinder garten, I thought it was a simple crush but turns out it wasn't..."

"she's the kind of person who never left my side, even if she was often cold to everyone she would do anything to comfort a person" he added. "she's like the girl everyone has to have yet she's only one" he sighed.

"I'm not confessing to her Taeyoung," he suddenly look at me, I can sense sadness in his eyes but he seems too strong to even let it out. "But you will,"

"I know you like her," he continued as I turn my head to see Chuyeon, still sleeping. "it's too obvious Taeyoung"

"Why are you telling me this?" I asked, it feel so unreal, my best friend falling in love with someone I can't even straighten my feelings with.

She still confused me.

"Cause I want her to be happy," he smiled.

"But what about you?"

"I'll be happy for her," he said, smiling onto Chuyeon's figure. "That's why I didn't introduce you to her since I know she has a crush on you ever since you started doing tiktok, I was jealous that time... But now I realise that I shouldn't, maybe Chuyeon's not for me" he sighed.

"Are you okay now?" Seongmin asked Chuyeon as he helped her sat up on the bed, hee oxygen was finally taken off just a sign that she'll be okay sooner.

It was only Seongmin since Taeyoung wasn't around, he came back to the cabin with the Hyungs after not having enough sleep while being with Seongmin, taking care of Chuyeon.

Wonyoung has already been discharged yet she was took home immediately due to her parents consent.

"Seongmin-ah" she suddenly called which abruptly made Seongmin look at her while raising his brow. "I heared everything," she look down as Seongmin did same aswell.

There was a moment of silence until Chuyeon decided to speak. "I'm sorry," she said, Seongmin only smiled, he doesn't care if it was painful deep inside- all he knew is that he felt happy for at least knowing the truth slipping out of Chuyeon's lips.

It was already enough for him and moved on from what he feel same thing of what happened from Hyeongjun over the past 3 years.

"I'm happy for you," Seongmin said as Chuyeon felt a tear slipped out of her eyes, tracing her cheeks as she felt her heart getting heavier. Of course she love Seongmin and that's the problem- she love Seongmin as her best friend.

"I'll always will," he added as he was pulled by Chuyeon inside her embrace.

"You Mischief little brat!" she cursed while crying on his shoulders as Seongmin laughed,

"so," Seongmin started, not breaking the hug. "can we call each other using cursed again?" Chuyeon only smacked his head as he fake cried.

Their day was filled with laughter and Taeyoung could only smile while pecking on the door, basically he heared everything- exactly why he didn't leave.

The only thing now is how he could get confirmation from what he really felt towards Chuyeon.
