(Yein's POV)
I stayed frozen, blinking rapidly.
My heart...exploded.
I could feel it bursting out loud, thumping louder and faster than it did before.
It was silent, but I could feel the sound of jiyong breathing.
I was actually glad that it was dark for a moment...
Because I was madly blushing.
***
The elevator doors creak open.
I quint my eyes because of the sudden light, as I see workers pulling us up out of the elevator.
As i'm pulled up, I look towards jiyong.
He was a bit sweaty as there were still little forms of sweat on his forhead, yet he didn't look scared anymore.
It looked as if he was rather...
Happy.
(Jiyong's POV)
I blink in the darkness.
My eyes try to search for yein's face, but I couldn't find it or see her expression as it was too dark.
I stay still in yein's stiff but warm arms.
....yein not talking...
....what does yein feel?
As I think, I listen to my heart beat.
It was beating, but something seemed a bit off.
I felt like there was another beat that was as loud and fast as mine.
I listen more closely.
It wasn't just my heartbeating loudly.
Yein's heartbeat was also matching mine.
(yein's POV)
"jwesonghapnida..." the workers bow to us apologetically.
(jwesonghapnida: means sorry in a formal way)
"gwenchanahyo" I say feeling a bit awkward.
One of the managers come up to me and hands me two tickets.
"we're very sorry...please take these movie tickets in return..."
I take the tickets so they would stop feeling guilty, telling them again that It was okay and they slowly leave.
I look at the tickets.
Guess we're watching a movie..
I froze.
*remembers what happened earlier*
I slowly turn my head back to see jiyong staring at me with bright eyes.
I gulp.
Shoot! He's staring at me!!!
I pretend to look at a wall or something, trying to keep my cool, but it completely crashes as Jiyong holds my hand in his walking towards the cinema.
My eyes grow wide.
W-what is he doing?!?
"um....Jiyong ah.." I say flustered.
He grips my hand slightly tighter as he turns to look at me.
"jiyong...want to hold yein hand." he says sincerely.
My eyes grow wide.
He puts on a sly smile.
"..will yein..give yein's feelings to jiyong too?" he says in a gentle firm tone.
I just look at him, my face growing redder as I think.
"...I..I....um-" I stutter, looking down.
Jiyong lowers his head so his eyes were looking at mine.
I avert my eyes as soon as he look at me, and all I hear is his soft voice, saying:
"gwenchanah. Jiyong, will wait."
I don't respond.
I feel my hand being pulled and I start walking.
I slightly look up to see jiyong's back facing me.
I don't know how I feel about you...
I'm still confused...
(Jiyong's POV)
We walk into the movie theater. As we grab a seat, yein quickly sits down, taking a breath.
I smile.
Yein is nervous.
I sit down next to her, my chair softly creaking as I sit down.
Her shoulder's jump slightly as my chair creaks.
I grin.
Yein so cute.
Seeing her like this made me feel like teasing her.
The lights go off in the theater.
My thoughts vanish and I soon start feeling a bit anxious.
Suddenly I feel a warm hand slightly touch mine.
"...Jiyong ah..gwenchanah? Is it too dark?" she says softly.
My worries wash away as soon as I hear her voice.
I grip her hand, and she slightly grips it back.
The big screen turns on, and i'm able to see again.
As soon as the movie starts, yein lets go of my hand.
I look towards her.
She confused as she tries to focus on the movie.
I just stare at her through the entire movie.
As soon as it ends, I give out a soft sigh.
Maybe..Yein...doesn't share same feelings..
(Yein's POV)
The movie ended.
I didn't focus on the movie at all as my mind was occupied with jiyong's confession.
Ba dump ba dump
I slightly scrunch my eyebrows.
This queasy feeling...
This strong feeling...
It feels uncomfortable,
and I don't know how to confirm it.
I breath in softly.
gripping the handle of my seat, I look at jiyong from the corner of my eyes.
He was looking at me.
Startled, I look away again.
I bite my bottom lip.
Ba dump ba dump ba dump ba dump
I don't move. I sit still, watching people leave the theater room.
"...yein.." I hear jiyong say.
I close my eyes tight, my chest tightening.
"the movie is over guys~" someone says in a cheerful voice.
Me and jiyong both look up to see the employee standing near us smiling.
"Omo, you two sure are a cute couple~" she says cheerfully.
My mouth opens.
"no we're not-" i say but my sentence gets cut off by jiyong.
"yein is just jiyong's dear friend." he says with a smile.
I look at him.
Somehow...I feel sad that he said that....
The employee puts a hand to her mouth in apology.
"really??" she says in shock and in joy.
I watch her as she checks jiyong out.
My heart beats faster, feeling a bit angry.
She takes out a pen that was in her shirt pocket, and starts to write on jiyong's hand.
Jiyong just stares at her not knowing what she was doing.
"we should hangout sometime~" she says to jiyong with a wink.
She then looks at me.
"i'm sure you won't mind him having more friends?" she says slightly in what sounded like a mocking way.
She walks away, taking the trash with her to the front entrance.
It's not like I was his girlfriend...
But why do I feel so angry, envious of her doing that?
As I think. Jiyong touches my hand.
My thoughts disappear and the queasy feeling overcomes me again.
He was silent for a moment, then he speaks.
"...gwenchanah, yein..." he says.
I just stare at him.
He finishes his sentence.
"yein don't have to reply anymore.."
I look at him my eyes wide.
What??
He gives me a sad smile.
"yein...doesn't share same feeling as jiyong...right?" he says weakly.
My heart drops and I start realizing:
the queasy feeling
the strong feeling
the anger
the envy
all this is felt...and only felt..because I like
jiyong.
He gets off his chair.
"let's go home now yein" he says.
I grab his shirt and immediately sit him back down.
He looks at me his eyes wide.
"..yein?" he says as I take his hand that the emloyee girl wrote on, and start to wipe it off with a wet wipe.
"you won't need this anymore." I say.
He looks at me confused.
My face grows hotter as he stares.
I put my head down, gathering my courage.
".....i'm only going to say this once.." I say.
He nods slowly.
I look up and say in a slightly loud, but shy voice.
"Jiyong ah..I like you."
he just stares at me.
I blush harder.
Did he not understand that either??
I stand up, fanning myself, and this time jiyong stands up, and grabs my waist, hugging me.
My face plunges onto jiyong's shoulder.
I look at him.
He was blushing with a big smile across his face.
As he holds me tighter, he says:
"Jiyong...happy."
