KO MI YOUNG
I woke up in horror earlier this morning, I just dreamed about seo jun in a romantic way and I couldn't focus on anything else anymore after that.
I double looked at my outfit which is a high waisted tight black skirt that has a 2 inch slit stopping just by my mid thighs. I partnered it with army green turtle neck, my black leather jacket and my black heeled boots.
It's a first time for me to wear a skirt that's not my uniform -- during school festivals, and of course I wore the lipstick which is the only cosmetic I own. I look different but I like it.
" are you sure I don't look weird? " I ask Ju kyung again making her laugh
" you look pretty " she says then sighed " i wish I'm born pretty "
" aish. You ARE pretty -- who says people with acne problems aren't pretty " i said nudging her
" is this okay? " i ask her and she looks at me confused " I don't really have female friends if you notice-- well aside from gowoon she's more of a sister to me. Do i creep you out? "
" you mean -- us as friends? " she says and i felt my heart warmed when i heard the words making me look down and smile
" yeah " i mutter scratching the back of my neck
" are you sure you want to be friends with me after seeing my bare face? " she frowned and i roll my eyes
" isn't that much better? " i said and she smiles
We both arrived school getting tons of looks as to why my arms are linked with Ju kyungs. There are booth outside the school and there's a lot of students roaming around even outsiders are here.
" oh no -- ju kyung " i mumble in horror and pointed gowoon
" gowoon - no no no " Ju kyung muttered worriedly then pulled me with her
I removed my leather jacket and hid gowoon's face while we ran together with ju kyung saving her from embarrassment.
THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW
Seo jun sighs looking around impatiently, looking for a certain someone. Instead he just started throwing water balloons on his friends face to somehow lessen the annoyance he's feeling.
" hey seo jun, are you mad about something? " One of them complains
He clicks his tongue and sigh " whatever "
" hey " they exclaim stopping him
" where are you going? you have to be our sign " he complained
" sign? " seo jun asks confused
" your face " he stated " girls will line up if you are here "
He glanced around noticing how girls are already starting to gather around looking at him excitedly. He huffed and turn around
" I'm going to see my pretty girl "
" which pretty girl? " he asked in confusion
" It's my first time doing someone else's make up " Ju kyung started while mi young on the other hand are just watching " but lets try it "
" you can't mess up on stage just because of judgmental kids " she added which mi young nodded in agreement
" but.. do i look weird? " asked Gowoon making ju kyung glanced at mi young for help
" you love how honest i am right? " mi young asked gowoon in which she nods
" you do look weird --- but in a good way "
Mi young carefully watched and listened to ju kyung as she explains what she's doing step by step. It's funny how her mother have their own cosmetic brand yet she doesn't know how to use it.
" you're really good in make up ju kyung " mi young mutters her eyes focusing on what ju kyung's doing
Before they knew it, the both are sitting beside each other along ju kyung's brother and his friends and the audience watching Gowoon perform her solo. Mi young couldn't help but feel proud of gowoon and thankful to ju kyung who helped. If it weren't for her gowoon would feel anxious throughout the whole performance.
Mi young smiled at the sight of gowoon confidently singing her solo part. And so did Seo jun who's just sitting a bit higher where she and ju kyung is seated. Mi young quickly stood up smiling as she clapped her hands proudly.
" UNNIE "
Gowoon ran towards Mi young and Ju kyung pulling them both in a tight hug.
" I'm so proud of you " mi young stated with a smile
" you were the best " ju kyung follows
" thanks to you " gowoon says to ju kyung
" oh its my brother " she says her smile widening
Seo jun stops beside mi young smiling at his sister while ju kyung looked at him shock.
" wah look at that -- its pretty " mi young says when she saw seo jun handed gowoon a bouquet of flowers
" han seo jun? " ju kyung asked stunned catching the attention of the three
" do you know each other? " he asked gowoon
" do you know my brother? " gowoon asks ju kyung
" you didn't tell me he's her brother " ju kyung says to mi young
" I thought you knew "
" how do you know ju kyung? " seo jun asks gowoon
Mi young looks at him sideways, letting the two siblings talk.
Later on gowoon had went back to her friends leaving the two awkwardly walking. Seo jun nervously glanced at mi young noticing her outfit, his eyebrows furrowed when he saw she's wearing a skirt.
He suddenly felt bothered when he imagined lots of guys fawning over her legs. Of course how she dresses is not a problem to him but it's the perverted guys around her. He suddenly stepped in front of mi young stopping her from walking.
He leaned his face and felt his heart beat faster. It's been the same thing he's been feeling since middle school. Little did he know, mi young had been feeling the same lately.
" you're wearing the shade I picked " he mutters his eyes stopping by her soft plumped lips.
Mi young blushed, feeling nervous on how close seo jun is to her.
" yeah, I uh decided to explore more into my feminine side "
He raises an eyebrow and leaned in more, both of their nose are touching. He suddenly felt the want -- to kiss those lips, those soft lips of hers. Both of their cheeks are red and their mind are in a hot mess.
" you look beautiful " he says with a smile
Mi young felt her heart melted, she blinks opening her mouth to talk but no words seem to form.
Then they got interrupted by ju kyung and su ho fighting, the two jerked away from each other and looked at ju kyung who's dressed as a pig crying while she walks away from the locker room.
" don't. give her space " seo jun says grabbing mi young's wrist stopping her from running after ju kyung
Everybody cheered when seo jun got the ball in, he jumped from happiness and pointed at mi young smiling at her. She laughed at the sight clapping her hands as she watches him play.
She have been confused, but deep down she knows that whatever the hell she's feeling... feels... good.
" aww look at you guys " Mi young stated laughing when she saw seo jun's friends dressed up as cheer leaders
" stop, we just lost how can you laugh right now " Cho Rong complained making her laugh even harder
" it's just a game -- by the way you guys look pretty " she snickered leaving the bench making her way out of the court when the game ended.
" I bring you this song in the memory of Yoon Se Yeon, which I'm a big fan of "
Mi young stopped when she heard the name mentioned. She focused on the small stage located in the middle of the campus where there's a lot of students sitting by the bench.
" why does it have to be this song? Han seo jun might start it with Su ho again " Soo jin muttered making sua and ju kyung look at her
" why? is there a history between them? " sua asked
" They were best friends. Han seo Jun, Su Ho, Jeong Se Yeon and Ko Mi Young " Soo jin replied
Mi young stood frozen, flashbacks started running to her mind. From the night she was riding home but got stopped when a body fell from the very top of the building.
She remembered her best friends blood, the look on seo jun and su ho's face, the funeral, and how people suddenly acted as if it's not their fault he's gone. Tears suddenly start to pour down her cheeks, her one foot stepped back, she wanted to run away but she can't seem to move.
" how do you do? how have you been? " the guy sang " it doesn't seem like I'm all right "
Ju kyung stood up leaving but stopped at the sight of mi young who's crying and seemed to be hyperventilating. She then remembered the time she saw mi young crying inside a coka room.
Ju kyung ran towards her, holding both mi young's cheeks but mi young just seemed out of it.
" ko mi young.. ko mi young " ju kyung calls in panic shaking her but the girl can't seem to hear her
All that mi young could hear was Se Yeon's song. The one he showed her right after he finished composing it.
Ju kyung glanced at Seo jun who just arrived and ran towards him
" ko mi young "
That name in that tone is enough for seo jun to follow ju kyung in panic.
Seo jun places his hands on mi young's cheeks as he looks in her eyes
" i got it here " seo jun says to ju kyung
But that's not all, su ho was hyperventilating also and can't seem to walk straight. Luckily ju kyung went to him helping him despite their fight earlier.
" ko mi young " seo jun calls in panic
He continues to call her and with that they're starting to catch people's attention. Seo jun felt his heart beating fast in panic.
" KO MI YOUNG " seo jun frustratedly yell
Soo Jin looks over her shoulder along with sua to see seo jun shaking mi young who's frozen. Her heart clenched at the sight feeling more guilty about the comment she made to her the other day.
" what's happening? "
" why's she crying? "
" is that ko mi young? "
Mi young's gaze moved to the familiar cat eyes. More tears fell down her cheeks, she can feel her weak knees is about to give up.
Those eyes, that comforted her for so many years.
Mi young engulfed seo jun into a tight hug, her arms wrapped around his shoulders as she snuggle her face into his neck.
Seo jun wrapped his arms around her waist hugging her back tightly. It pains him to see her in pain.
He hated seeing her cry. Ever since he met her he have felt the need to look after her --- always.
At that moment
He found his answer.
He will tell her.
