SPLIT (COMPLETED)

take your time to learn

When he tells her that he is going to get on the plane in a few minutes, he finds her voice to be slowed down.

"Why didn't you tell me last night?", she asks in a sad tone.

"I thought you know my schedule. I mean...the friendly game news is everywhere.", he tells her.

He waits for a reply but the other end is quiet for a moment.

"Chaeyoung, you there?", he asks.

"I'm here. I...I'm sorry I didn't open the door when you came here.", he could hear her shaky voice on the other end.

"Chae, are you okay?", he asks as he believed that she probably is crying right now. "About that, it's okay. I don't mind it since you picked up your phone now.", he adds while trying to make her feel better. "At least, I can hear your voice. This is good enough, Chaeyoung.", he says as he hears the sound of her clearing her throat.

Then, he hears her reply to him, "Are you not angry? I mean...I purposely didn't open the door, you know?"

"I know. You must have done it purposely because of last night. But, fret not. I'm not angry with you.", he responses as he queues to get his ID checked by the airline staff.

Another silent greets him as he slowly walks forward. "Chae, I'm about to go now. We'll talk later when I landed?", he says as he sees there are only two people in front of him before his turn.

"Oh, umm...okay. Talk to you later.", he hears her voice cracks once again.

"Talk to you later, Chaeyoung. I love you.", he managed to say the three words before the security guard signals to him not to use his phone anymore. He nods to the man in white uniform before he hangs up. He could not even wait for her reply so he sends her a text saying sorry to end the call abruptly like that. Then, he turns on the airplane mode before he gets his ID checked.

The time for the friendly game finally comes and Chaeyoung could not wait any longer to see Jungkook on the TV. Since the call they had yesterday before he left, she could not wait to see him because he left her feeling so happy for the rest of the day. His words before he ended the call keep playing in her head like a broken record.

Upon the TV shows the two teams coming into the pitch, Chaeyoung begins smiling as she sees the face that she is waiting to look at. Seeing him on the pitch makes her remember their call two hours ago. He told her that he was sad that she did not answer his call after he landed in Singapore yesterday. She did not even call him back and just texted him saying sorry for not answering his call. Honestly she is shy with him and does not know how to communicate with him after he said the three words to her. So, she just text him instead.

When he asked why she called him today, she said that she wanted to wish him good luck and wanted him to hear it from her own mouth. She still remembered how he faked his laugh on her reasoning. He asked her if she missed his voice but she denied it. They ended the call with Chaeyoung got flustered with him teasing her and she ended saying good luck only in the text that she sent him after the call.

"Chaeyoung!", the finger snaps in front of her face startled her.

"Oh, Jin oppa. You're here.", she moves to the other sofa to give him her seat.
