"firstly, what do you know about her?" i asked as we lay next to each other in my bed. he made a small noise to signify he was thinking.
"hmm... she's the cutest and kindest person i know. she loves to eat healthy food, but she hates avocados." he chuckled fondly. "she has the voice of an angel and is the most precious person on the face of the universe."
"she sounds nice," i smiled sadly. "what is she like?"
"she's like a child. she loves her fish and her favourite colour is blue; but she really likes baby pink. she loves to draw and sing, and she gets sleepy when she does nothing. she likes flowers." he sighed dreamily. my heart hurt.
"she sounds nice," i mused. "maybe you should bring me to meet her."
"one day." he turned to face me, a soft smile on his face, dimples on display.
i frowned. what did he mean by 'one day'? does he not want me to meet her or something? i know i would bring him to meet my boyfriend if i had one, so i don't know how to feel about this. does he not trust me?
"okay," i muttered, rolling onto my side and staring at the cream coloured wall. brushing my fingers against the wall, i let out a quiet sigh. "anything else about her?"
"not that i can think of," he stared off in a distance, mind obviously somewhere else. after knowing him since the start of time, i somehow learnt how to tell his feelings by the sound of his voice. right now he isn't on earth; he's in dreamland. lying in silence, i let my heart sob quietly, my face and mind blank.
tomorrow is a new day for both pain and happiness. maybe more of pain, though.

i thought i made it clear to her that i liked her, that she was the one that i needed advice on. but apparently, she's more oblivious than i thought. which was something i didn't expect, seeing as chaeyoung's a smart girl.
we've been laying on her bed for a few hours now. when i told her that i couldn't think of anything more to tell her, she grew quiet. i think she's fallen asleep by the sound of her light breaths and unmoving body. inching closer to her slowly, i peeked at her face and found her eyes closed and hands covering her face. she's had that cute habit since she was seven years old, when we had our first sleepover at my house. she fell asleep in my bed and then i fell asleep next to her.
well, i wanted to that now but i'm at the foot of her bed and she's on the other side. it's getting pretty dark outside and i told my mom i'd be back before 8. it's 6:30 right now and i'd prefer to get back to my house before it becomes pitch black outside. i don't want to wake her up just because i'm leaving, she'll see me again tomorrow. so instead, i opted to do something way riskier than everything i've ever done.
i kissed her forehead and walked out, palms sweaty and heart racing. i skipped down the stairs and took my bag, bidding bye to her parents and sister. softly shutting the door behind me, i started my walk back at home while admiring chaeyoung's sleeping face that was captured in my mind. i may or may not have bumped into some things along the way but that's not the point.
——————————————————————
when i woke up hanbin had already left. i wasn't disappointed to say the least, i expected it since he always keep his word to his mom. if he said he was gonna get back before 8, you best believe that he'll be back by 7:30.
rolling onto my back, i looked up at the ceiling. i remember dreaming that i felt someone kiss my forehead, someone that felt like hanbin. deciding that it was probably to far fetched, i shook my head and groaned. closing my eyes, i was ready to fall asleep again but i heard my sister, alice, call my name and dinner after. forcing myself up, i took baby steps and made my way down to the dining room to eat. well, i guess i was feeling a little hungry.
that day wasn't very eventful but the biggest highlights are probably the fact that i now know that kim hanbin has a crush. on who, i don't know. though, i do hope that there's something to look forward to tomorrow.
——————————————————————
unfortunately, i had to wake up for school. i wish i could skip but knowing my parents, i'd have to be extremely sick or have something so important that i'd have to miss school. usually i get to skip when i have piano or guitar exams or when i get a high fever, or something worse. and guess what, i'm a healthy person who doesn't get sick often at all.
though, it's not a bad thing to be healthy. i know some people who are so unhealthy to the point you barely see them at school. parents who don't vaccinate your children, what are you doing?
i guess i was early, because hanbin wasn't here and the sun had barely risen. checking the time, i realised i came half-an-hour early. huh. usually i come only a few minutes before. but since i'm here i might as well stay here, right? walking back and forth is a hassle.
taking a seat on the bench underneath the shade, i decided to look through my phone whilst waiting. tapping my fingers on the fabric of my skirt, i impatiently watched the minutes go by. the sun had risen, its rays shining. the bus had yet to arrive and hanbin hadn't arrived too. 5 minutes until the bus arrived, and he still wasn't here. is he skipping school today?
one minute before the bus arrived. it's scary how i know the exact time the bus arrives. anxiously looking around, i gripped the straps of my bag tighter as i stood up and quickly looked for hanbin. deciding that he wasn't going to come, i waited for the bus to stop in front of me.
and it did. unsurprisingly.
the door opened and i walked in, greeting the bus driver politely. taking a seat on one of the mid-row seats, i glanced out the window. my best friend isn't here to keep me company, to keep me smiling. and i miss him. call me clingy, but i really do miss him even though i saw him yesterday.
——————————————————————
mumbling curses under my breath, i ran to the bus station as fast as i could, only go find out that the bus had already left. groaning, i decided to walk to school. i was only ten minutes late to the bus, so i could make it to school on time. biting my lip, i started my journey.
did chaeng go to school today? most likely. she always goes to school despite being sick. unless she has a piano or guitar exam.
i wonder when she'll realise that she's the one i'm talking about, the one i want. she's not a, say, dense person. but that's in studying-smarts wise. emotions and feelings wise, she's dense. sorry chaeng. though, it's fun teasing her. i don't know if she realises, but she's not very subtle with her feelings.
my thoughts were cut short as the view of school came into sight. luckily, the bus had just arrived and i could see chaeyoung getting out. thank god i'm on time. jogging up to where she was, i tapped her shoulder.
"morning chae," i smiled drunkenly, my dimples making an appearance.
"hanbin! i thought you weren't coming!" she gasped.
"sorry, i woke up late." i chuckled. we walked through the school doors among the other students, laughing and talking about some funny things that happened over the week.
"anything about your dream girl?" she asked, face slightly scrunching in pain.
"yes," my heart started beating faster. "she's forgetful and she likes dyeing her hair."
"that reminds me of lee sohye," she suggested, earning a shake of my head.
"sohye is nice but she's not my type," i shrugged, taking my books from my locker.
"then what is your type?" she frowned, taking her books.
"you," i whispered, loud enough for only me to hear.
"hm?" she turned to face me, cocking her head to the side. "did you say something?"
"no," i shook my head. "i don't really have a type."
"that's a lie."
"i'm being honest!"
"yeah right," she rolled her eyes playfully and nudged me. "seriously, what is your type?"
"i don't have one!"
——————————————————————
day by day passed and i gradually told her more about the things i like about her. i'm still quite shocked that she hasn't figured out that i'm talking about her.
she's been giving lots of good advice, almost like she's been in a relationship before. for instance, she told me to get her flowers when i want to ask her out. it's a sweet gesture that girls love, according to her. another one of her advice is to give her space. if she doesn't know whether she really likes me or not, give her time to decide and she'll eventually say yes or no.
"kim hanbin!" she exclaimed. "are you ready for another one of your 'how to get the girl' classes?"
"yes, ms park." i saluted.
"okay!" she clapped, sitting down in her study chair. "when you ask her out, not only can you bring flowers, but you can bring something she likes. like food! if she likes, let's say chocolates, you can bring her a box of chocolates! you can ask her friends what type of chocolates she likes, or you can ask her yourself. but be subtle!"
"got it," i nodded, writing it down in my head.
ask chaeyoung what type of chocolates she likes.
wait a second, i do know what type of chocolates she likes.
"moving on, since i know you like to write lyrics, maybe you can compose a song for her! that'd be exciting, don't you think?"
"good idea!" i snapped my fingers and started writing the lyrics.
hmm, what should i call the song? i think 'beautiful' is a good name.
"when are you going to ask her out, actually?"
"i was thinking maybe tomorrow." i decided that i should stop torturing her poor heart and just confess already. even though i know that she already likes me, i still get worried that she'll reject me.
"i'll be supporting you from the sides then," she smiled sadly at me. to any other person, this would be a normal, dazzling smile from her. but to me, as her best friend, i know this sad smile. this smile is the smile of pain, a smile she forces herself to have.
"have a good night, chaeng. see you tomorrow!" i waved, getting ready to leave.
"bye han," she waved, seemingly defeated. my heart broke.
"do you want a hug?"
"n-no, it's fine." she shook her head.
"come on. the chaeyoung i know never rejects a hug from her favourite person." i opened my arms wide.
"you're right. i do want a hug." she stood up from the chair and latched herself onto me, my hands immediately starting to rub her back soothingly. we stayed there for what felt like hours, but was merely three minutes.
"goodnight." i waved one more time.
"goodnight." she waved back.
——————————————————————
why must you torture me like this, hanbin? you're going to another girl, yet you still want me to hug you? i'm not the most subtle person on earth so i'm pretty sure you already know i like you, so why must you keep breaking my heart like this?
any girl would be lucky to have you. i would be especially lucky if i have you. the way my heart beats when i'm around you, the way i act whenever you're near, it's all because i like you. why, why, why must you keep torturing me?
i can't bring myself to hate you yet you make me want to. why can't you just leave my feelings and i alone? god, i really want to hate you but i can't.
let's just hope that after you ask her out, you'll forget about me. i'm better off without my heart writhing in pain over unrequited love, even if it's for my best friend in the whole wide world.
——————————————————————
i never really decided on the time i was gonna ask chaeng out. but since i'm probably gonna go to her house at around 5 or 6, maybe then. now, i have to buy flowers. or roses, to be more specific. red, white, pink, orange, burgundy, blue and lavender coloured roses are what i thought was appropriate for a girl like her, so i went to a flower shop to arrange flowers.
i... am surprising good at arranging flowers? never thought i'd actually be able to do it. the burgundy's blended with the reds which blended with the pinks to make a somewhat ombré colour, followed by orange, white and blues. they all reminded me of her.
the chocolates are sitting in my fridge, and i took them out as i got ready to leave my house.
the song i made with her in mind was finished, as i asked my friends jinhwan, yunhyeong, bobby, donghyuk, junhoe and chanwoo to help me. you could say i am satisfied with it. like, extremely satisfied. it's in a small usb in my pocket, and i'm making my way to her house.
"finally asking chaeyoung out?" my friend and neighbour, jaewon, asked.
"yeah," i nodded excitedly.
"you finally got the balls to do it." he grinned. "tell me how it goes, yeah?"
"of course, you knucklehead." he winked at me and went back inside his house. i passed by a few other people who wished me luck, unfortunately i didn't pay much attention because i was so excited.
now i'm in front of her house, and my heart is beating crazily. to think that i'd be asking out the girl i've liked since 3rd grace made my heart race and my mind spin. we've been friends for an eternity now, and i honestly can't wait for what the future brings out. i pray it brings us joy, a love that lasts for all of time and a happy family.
stepping in her house, her parents greeted me and wished me the best, giving me their full approval to ask her out. as i walked up the stairs, alice pat me on the back and told me to 'go for it'.
standing outside her room, i couldn't help but smile widely. knocking on her door, i pinched myself to make sure this wasn't all a dream, that i was actually asking my long-time crush out.
once she opened the door, i asked if i could come in, wanting to talk to her privately.
"what's up?" she sat on her bed as i sat next to her. "aren't you supposed to be asking your crush out?"
"i am," i chuckled, watching her mind process my words. "roseanne park chaeyoung, i've known you since 1997 and nothing has changed. you're still the same old princess that i admire with all my heart. i've has this crush on you since 3rd grade and it couldn't help but grow from all the time i've spent with you. least to say, you're my whole world. if you accepted my offer and became my girlfriend, i'll be the happiest boy alive. hell, i'd be the happiest thing in the entire universe! i know i've played with your heart over the past month, but believe me, i really do like you. i might even love you. you're what makes me happy, you're what keeps me going. please, just accept my heart because i'm laying it on a silver platter for you right now."
"i hate you so much," she sobbed into my arm, her tears soaking the fabric of my sweater.
"aww, don't cry." i put down the flowers and chocolate, pulling her into my lap.
"you're such an asshole, you know?"
"well aware," i grinned as she punched my chest. "is that a yes or no?"
"of course it's a yes, stupid!"
"good, because then i can give you these roses and chocolates, and this song i wrote for you." she looked up, eyes puffy and cheeks stained with tears. i wiped the tears and gave her the bouquet of roses along with the chocolates, hand digging my pocket for the usb (which i eventually found). giving her those three things and my heart, she started smiling again. "that smile suits you well, you should wear it more often."
"maybe i will now that the boy i love finally loves me back."
