Days have gone by after Hanni and Y/n spent the day together at the theme park. The two of them got closer after that, but like they said, sometimes good things might come to an end, but if you fight for it, the so-called bad ending might turn into a happy one. As the days passed, Hanni and Y/n found themselves drawn to each other more and more. They spent hours talking about everything under the sun, finding comfort in each other's company. Despite the looming uncertainty, they both felt a growing sense of hope, knowing that sometimes, with a little perseverance, even the most uncertain endings can transform into something beautiful.
It was a typical sunny morning. A familiar girl woke up and yawned in her room. She quickly grabbed her phone and checked for new messages. The good morning messages you sent her every day always filled her mornings with joy. But today was different. When she looked at her recent messages, she didn't see one from you. She felt a pang of disappointment and confusion. It was unusual for you to miss sending her a message in the morning. She scrolled through her phone, hoping to find something from you, but there was nothing. As she got ready for the day, her thoughts kept drifting back to the absence of your message. It felt strange, almost like something was amiss.
Hours had passed since she last opened her phone, hoping that you would send her a message. But when she looked again, she saw nothing. She felt worried about you and decided to text you to check if you were okay.
"Hey, just wanted to check in and make sure everything is okay with you. I haven't heard from you in a while and I'm starting to get a little concerned. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help."
She sent a message to you, hoping that you'll reply to her. She waited and waited until her member called her out. She was now very worried about you. She was so worried even her members started to ask her why she was so distressed today. She tried to keep herself composed, but her anxiety was palpable. As she paced back and forth, her mind raced with all the possible reasons for your silence. She couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. The concern in her member's eyes only intensified her unease.
"Is everything all right Hanni?" Minji spoke to her, asking why she was so distressed lately, Hanni only looked into her eyes and replied
"Yeah, everything is fine Minji, just a little bit concerned about someone" Hanni replied to Minji while looking very worried. But Minji could see through her friend's facade. She knew there was more to Hanni's distress than she was letting on.
"Hanni, I'm here for you. You can talk to me about anything,"
Minji said, reaching out to hold Hanni's hand. Hanni hesitated for a moment before finally opening up about her concerns.
"Well, actually, I have this friend, and we've been getting closer day by day. But today, my friend didn't text me. Usually, my friend sends me good morning messages all the time, but today my friend didn't even send one," Hanni said to Minji, looking down at the ground. Minji looked at Hanni with a sympathetic expression.
"I'm sure there's a good reason for it. Maybe he's just caught up with something today. You should reach out to him and see if everything is okay."
She replied to Minji, "I already sent my friend a message but didn't get a reply and it's starting to worry me."
"Is your friend a He or a She?" Minji asked Hanni, she only looked at her in the eyes, and while she looked at her in the eyes, a smirk formed on Minji's face "So your so-called friend is a he" she said with a teasing voice
Hanni was like, "Shh, don't say it out loud, someone might hear." And then Minji just smirked like a devil and tried not to burst out laughing, while Hanni looked totally annoyed with her. Hanni whispered, "Seriously, Minji, this is not the time for your antics." But Minji just winked and replied, "Come on, lighten up a little. It's not like anyone is listening."
"Stooop it Minji or else I'll hit you with this light stick," Hanni warned Minji, but Minji just looked at her and laughed. Hanni's face turned red with anger as she gripped the light stick tightly in her hand. "I'm serious, Minji! Stop it now!" she yelled. But Minji kept on laughing, not bothered by Hanni's threats.
Yeah, whatever Hanni. You still can't change the fact that you have a secret lover," Minji teased Hanni, but only to be met by a light stick thrown at her. Minji laughed and said, "You missed, you can't aim for anything, Hanni." Hanni rolled her eyes and smirked, "Oh please, like you're one to talk. I've seen the way you look at that guy from the coffee shop. You're not fooling anyone, Minji."
Hey, cut it out with the crap, Hanni! I thought we agreed not to bring up that accident," Minji complained, trying to get Hanni to stop talking. But Hanni just grinned at her.
"You're the one who started this, so you're gonna have to finish it. It's either you win or you lose," Hanni told Minji, trying not to laugh. Minji rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "Fine, but I'm not giving up without a fight," she said, determined to come out on top.
They were like, really going at it, chucking those light sticks and yelling. And then they started cracking up, like, totally losing it. And just when Hanni was gonna toss Bernice at Minji, someone walked in and got hit instead.
"Who's the genius who threw Bernice at me?" Hyein yelled, all mad. And then Hanni and Minji just cracked up even more.
"You should look at your face Hyein you look all grumpy" Hanni said while laughing her stomach off, Minji only joined her laughed, Hyein rolled her eyes and smirked, "Well, maybe if you two weren't so annoying, I wouldn't look grumpy." But deep down, she couldn't help but smile at her friends' antics.
Hanni and Minji continued to tease Hyein, making funny faces and silly noises to try and cheer her up. Despite her initial grumpiness, Hyein couldn't resist their infectious laughter and soon found herself joining in, feeling grateful for such lighthearted and playful friends.
"Haerin! Help me!"
Haerin heard the call for help and quickly ran over with a pillow.
"Stop it or I'll do something!"
Haerin threatened her sister, but they just laughed. Hyein pouted and crossed her arms, while Minji and Hanni continued to giggle at her distress. Haerin sighed and shook her head, knowing that her threats wouldn't be taken seriously. "Fine, have it your way," she said, before joining in on the teasing with a mischievous grin.
After the four of them laughed foolishly, they decided to make a peace treaty and stop teasing because they had run out of bullets.
They each headed to their rooms, and before Minji entered hers, she shouted at Hanni, "I hope your secret friend replies to your messages, you poor thing." Clearly annoyed by Minji's action, Hanni threw her slippers at her and said, "You shut up before I tell them what you did at the cafe." Minji only laughed and went inside her room.
After Hanni went into her room, her phone vibrated in her pocket. When she saw who was calling at this late hour, she was surprised and happy. It was the person she had been worrying about and missing all day - it was you. She quickly accepted the call and said,
Hey, are you okay? Did something happen? She asked in a very concerned tone. She had a million questions in her mind right now and was eager to ask you what happened to your day and why you hadn't talked to her for almost a whole day.
"Don't worry about me Hanni, I was just, you know, not feeling well," you said in a very weak voice, almost sounding like you were out of breath. "I think I just need to rest for a bit. Thank you for checking in on me, I appreciate it."
"Hey, you definitely sound sick, why didn't you tell me that you were sick so I could help you?"
Hanni said, nagging about why you didn't tell her that you were sick. You only chuckled about what she said, your stomach felt butterflies, you felt warm and comfortable with her, you were just thankful for having her in your life. You knew that Hanni always had a way of making you feel better, even when you were feeling under the weather. You were grateful for her concern and couldn't help but smile at her nagging. She was always there for you, and you were lucky to have her as a friend.
"Well your busy every day and I don't want to give you problems," you said while chuckling about how she was mad at you for not telling her you were sick
"Shut up Y/n. Stop. You know that I care for you. Why didn't you tell me? And for your information, I can take the day off just for you,"she said.
You were taken aback by what she said. She said she was willing to take the day off for you. You felt very warm on your cheeks. Even though you two were only talking on the phone, you felt like she was right beside you, nagging about why she wasn't informed that you were sick. You felt a surge of guilt and gratitude at the same time. It was comforting to know that she cared so much, but you also felt bad for not reaching out to her sooner. "I'm sorry," you whispered, "I didn't want to bother you."
"How about tomorrow I'll give you a visit since my schedule is free for tomorrow how about that?" Hanni said while you were stunned by her suggestion,
"If you want to but I think you shouldn't come here, you might catch my fever and get yourself sick," you said while Hanni only replied
"What's the matter of that, let's be sick together," she said in a very joyful tone.
You couldn't help but chuckle at Hanni's carefree attitude.
"Alright, if you're sure you don't mind being sick with me, then I'd love to see you tomorrow," you said with a smile.
It was clear that nothing could dampen Hanni's spirits, and you were grateful for her infectious positivity.
"Well see you tomorrow? I'll rest for a bit since I'm still feeling dizzy," you said to her while breathing fast.
"Yeah yeah you should rest well, and drink plenty of fluid so you won't get dehydrated and sleep well," she said.
"Thank you Hanni for checking up on me." After hanging up the call, I felt grateful for having her in my life.
Her caring nature and ability to make me smile and laugh, even when I was on the verge of collapsing from a high fever, made me very happy. I closed my eyes and tried to relax, hoping that a good rest would help me feel better. Despite feeling unwell, I couldn't help but feel grateful for having such a caring friend by my side. As I drifted off to sleep, I knew that I was lucky to have someone like Hanni in my life.
How could my day be bad when I'm with you?
