"Look! It's him, YN. Over there"
Yes, it's him. My one and only crush, Eui Joo, or as people around us called him Ej for short. Both of us have been friends since we were in elementary school. That's when I started to have feelings for him. The problem is that I chose to like him from afar without making a single move. People will usually take the first step to get closer to their crush, right? But here I am, standing still like a statue.
"Come on, YN-shi. Go and say hi to him before he enter the class...!"
"Errrm do I have too? I just like to look him from him tho-"
"Nuh uh, not in my watch, now off you go!"
That's my best friend, Wonyoung. She really is into helping me get closer to Ej, as she claimed that she could sense that both of us could end up becoming a cute couple. Yeah, that's what I remembered. I sighed and bravely walked towards Ej before he could make it to the class' entrance. Alright, YN, just a simple greeting; it's not that hard to say hello, right?
"H-Hi...Eunchae! Hii Eunchae!"
What am I up to? Instead of saying Ej, I said Eunchae, as I saw her behind Ej. I looked at Wonyoung, who had already opened her mouth to see what had happened. It's so close yet I still missed it—did my nervousness really affect me that much?
"Ermm good morning too, YN. You looked happy...?"
"She failed again to say hi to Ej"
"Again? YN, you really need to try again. Both me and Wonyoung don't know how to help you anymore Q-Q"
"I know, I know. It's already smooth until I did eye contact with him and poof! All my confidence left me blank"
"Eye contact aye? Ah, maybe you should avoid eye contact with him then"
"Avoid? Oh yeah, I remembered that YN before talked so smoothly with Ej last week about up coming school project and she was busying with typing on the laptop, no eye contact happen"
"Correct. That's how you can confess to him, YN!"
Confession without eye contact? How is that supposed to help me? Yeah, it did help me before, just like Eunchae and Wonyoung mentioned, but I don't think it should apply when you want to confess to someone, right? I shook my head and left those two who were planning something; I feel bad that I didn't accomplish anything with their assistance until now. That's what you get when your friend is an introvert. I was about to sit down when I noticed a mint candy and a note under my desk. For the mint candy, I don't really think much because everyday I receive it but a note? It has no name, it is anonymous. Did someone misplace it, or was it really meant for me?
"Don't give up. Go straight up and confess? That's really a bold move"
"Hey YN, both of me and Eunchae thought that if you- hey what's that?"
"Hurm? Oh, it's just an anonymous note, nothing much-"
"Nothing much!? It could be a sign you dummy!"
"What sign?"
"It must be from Ej~ I mean, you could look at the handwriting and compare it using his practice book over there"
Handwriting? I quickly went to the teacher's desk in front and looked for EJ's practise book. Not here, nope, nah... yes, there it is. I did a comparison with both the note and the book. It matched, so that means it's really from Ej? So, why did he make it anonymous? Well, anyway, maybe I should have replied to it back then. But how? use the same method? or maybe face-to-face with him? Wait, what's up with this note? Does he already know that I like him or what? Is it too obvious? I was just lost in my thoughts until someone greeted me.
"Can we talk for a sec?"
"O-oh Ej! W-what's need to talk about?"
"I can help you with c-o-n-f-e-s-s-i-o-n"
"Wait what...?"
"You like Nicholas right?"
Did he mention Nicholas? Wait, did he think I have a crush on one of his buddies, Nicholas? And now he wants to help me with the confession? Good grief. This will be a confusing situation now. But what makes him think I have a crush on Nicholas? Me, who tried to not make my feelings towards Ej so obvious, but how did it end up being obvious with Nicholas? I lifted my head slowly and made eye contact with Ej. His expression is both adorable and solemn in this situation. Maybe I will play along for awhile first.
"How did you know about that? I can confirm no one except Wony and Eunchae know about it"
"I can feel it whenever both me and Nicholas are around with you guys"
"And that's when you figured it out?"
"yeah...kinda a bit obvious though"
SKIP
Both Ej and I are now on the rooftop, getting ready for "confession." He really told me everything about Nicholas, from A to Z, since he thought I liked his friend. In reality, I like him, not Nicholas, how can he misunderstand that?
"I already called Nicholas and I'm gonna hide behind, over there"
"Ej..."
"Don't worry, I'm sure this plan will work well, YN-chan"
"Ej! I-I don't worry about that...quite irrelevent actually"
"Irrelevent? Wait, I don't understand right now... I thought you like-"
"No...I don't like Nicholas more than friends..."
"Then who did you-"
"It's you...you're the one that I like, not Nicholas..."
Silent. Only the sounds of nature fill the silence between us. I guess that's it. It's time to move on, I guess. This is typical of your crush's rejection. I bowed to him and started to walk away until he pulled my wrist, stopping my steps.
"You...you like me, YN?"
"Yes and I understand if you don't like me back and I-"
"I like you too"
"Wait what? Then why you thought I like Nicholas in the first place?"
"You seems to avoid me too much and still okay with Nicholas so that's the idea"
"Oh about that, I don't want to make it obvious that I have feelings to you so yeah"
"I guess my hints doesn't work that much huh?"
"What do you mean?"
"Remember the mint candy you always receive every single day? That's from me, kinda surprising that you thought it from either Wonyoung or Eunchae"
"So that's from you!?"
"Yeah...I gave those candies as it help you stay 'alive' in class"
Those delicious candies were from him all this time!? Oh my gosh, this is becoming so awkward right now. Relax, YN, at least you now know that he likes you too, right? Now, let's give him a proper confession now.
"Now...Ej, I have something to tell you, I like you since we were in elementary school but all this time, I chose to like you from afar and quietly as I don't want ruin our friendship. So, may I be your girlfriend?"
Ej pulled me into an embrace as a quick response. He leaned in, and our lips met with each other. That is now officially my happiest day of my life.
Meanwhile...
"Hey do you get the shot,Nicho?"
"Beautiful scenery and a great picture for their wedding video"
"They're gonna thank us for this picture, 35 dollar"
"You charged them, Eunchae?"
"Well they're not premium costumers yet so yeah. Business is business"
The end...
