ㅡ Chaerin's POV ㅡ
I move my eyes from the screen to look at my best friend.
《So is it definitive?》 I ask, drawing her attention.
She nods, pressing her lips in a thin line.
《Yes, it's over between her and me.》
Hwasa and Wheein were unable to resolve the issue, even after a week. For Hwasa it was too much. Her girlfriend lied to her about something quite important. Wheein had always said she was a virgin because a trauma she suffered as a child which did not allow her to have intimate relationships, but it was a lie.
I don't know how I would react if I ever discovered that my boyfriend had sex with a friend of mine before ... Even if it was before the relationship, but it's still strange.
Hwasa forgave Jimin, he followed my advice and she understood, he explained himself by telling her the truth.
《Anyway, let's stop talking about depressing things, are you done with the project?》
She asks sticking to me, to stare at the screen.
I click a couple of things on the PC, save the project and it's done! We are working on a plan that we want to do together when we start university. As if to say, a list of things to do together during the semester. To distract ourself from our disastrous sentimental lives.
Hwasa checks the clock on her wrist.
《Do you have to go?》 I ask.
《Yes, in a little while I have to leave for that trip with my parents, you know we do it every year. In fact, I wanted to ask you if you could lend me that red shirt that I like so much ...》
I'm glad that she has the opportunity to distract herself, it will do her good. I don't feel any help as a friend now...
《Sure, I'm going to get it, wait for me here.》
Hwasa smiles at me broadly and gives a fleeting glance at Jimin, who was blissfully lying on the sofa, playing on his phone.
As soon as I get back, I give the shirt to Hwasa and she greets me to go away, hugging me tightly, as if we won't meet again any time soon, but she will come back after two weeks. I go back to my computer and I find Jimin sitting in front of it.
《You were right in the end, it was a good choice to tell her the truth.》
《I told you, you worried about nothing.》
《Yeah ...》 I notice that the corners of his mouth are trying to smile, but he holds back, I don't understand why.
《What's your problem?》
《You left your computer here before and I-》
《Did you rummage in my computer?》I ask interrupting him, with slight panic in the tone of my voice.
《I saw that you have a new vibrator on your wish list on Amazon. You know I have a dick, don't you?》 He asks with a perverted grin.
《Yes, and I prefer a new vibrator anyway.》 I reply casually tearing the computer from his clutches.
《What- you can't be serious.》he suddenly jumps up from the chair, pouting.
《Have you ever tried a vibrator?》 I ask turning to him.
《No though-》
《Exactly, you can't understand.》
He remains silent, his gaze wanders around the room, perhaps he is having complexions on his sexual performance. In the meantime, I put the computer away from him.
《Is a vibrator really better than having sex with me?》 He asks, following me like a puppy.
《Oh oh, someone here is having complexes.》 I hold back a laugh.
《No! It's not true! I have no complexes, I know I'm good in bed.》
《Oh... look at him how he defends himself! Come on, I was just joking.》 I say, if I don't do it, he will never stop.
《So you admit that I am better?》 Stands in front of me interrupting what I was doing.
I roll my eyes and sigh bored.
《Jimin come on.》 I push him slowly to go to my room.
With Hwasa now leaving, the house becomes increasingly empty. What will I do when Jimin returns to his house too?
《Chaerin, where are you going?》
《In my room, why?》
《Mmh ...》 moves his head to the side as he approaches me.
《What is that smile smeared on your lips?》 I ask noting that he has a strange expression as if he had something in mind.
He looks at me while still smiling.
《I promised Hwasa that I would have your consent but ...》
I jerk away from him, bringing my arms towards my breast, to protect myself from any unhealthy ideas he had in his head.
《No, wait! It's not what you think!》
《What should I think?》 I ask without lowering my guard.
The scene had something amusing about it. We were both low-key laughing.
《Just don't think, Chaerin.》 He responds in a low voice.
Don't think? What the fuck is he dreaming about?
I don't have time to answer, not even to make a confused face.
Because something grabs my wrist, or rather I'd say, someone. And that someone is Park Jimin. He pulls me with him and I am forced to follow him.
《Yah Jimin!》
《Shut up and come with me.》
What's gotten into him? Is he crazy?! We leave the house and he locks it. He opens the door of his car and pushes me inside, he doesn't put too much force into it, I fall into it since my balance has already been compromised.
《Yaaah!》I keep screaming in total confusion, but it's useless. This is my end, Jimin is turning out to be the psychopath he actually is.
Generally, girls dream that a boy will do things like that, that will kidnap you and take you to a magical and romantic place. But I'm not, I'm on the verge of exploding with anger.
《I would like to give you this punch on your nose that you cannot imagine.》 I lighten him with my glare while his hands brush me to fasten my seat belt.
《You can't, it's violence.》he replies putting his.
《And this is a kidnapping!》 I retort.
《Do you think I wouldn't take revenge if you'd punch me?》
I make a shocked face. 《Would you raise your hands on me?》
《Of course, I would raise them to undress you.》
《Jimin!》 I punch him on the arm while he laughs.
《Just kidding!》he starts the car, looks behind to exit the parking lot.
I snort sitting better on the seat, crossing my arms like a child.
《You're kidnapping me. Why do you always kidnap me? You also did it that time in the rain.》
《Eh? Ah ... no, it's not a kidnapping.》
《Yes it is. You're taking me against my will.》
《Are you sure it's against your will?》
《Yup.》
《Last time the end wasn't so bad, was it?》
《It depends on your point of view.》
I look out the window, we're exiting Seoul. It's a sparsely populated area, but not deserted. The only difference is that civilization is rarer and condensed in a specific point, in classic small villages
《Where are we going?》I ask now surrendered to the idea of being kidnapped.
《Surprise.》
《I'll call the police.》 He rolls his eyes and rips my phone from my hands as soon as he sees I was serious.
《Give me back my phone!》
《Why? You don't need it, you don't have a boyfriend to write to.》
《Touché, the delicacy prize goes to you.》
《It's true, you trusted him, you were stupid.》
《Do you train to be such an asshole?》 I look at him from the side. His words are hurting me.
The expression on my face turns serious.
《Let me off.》
《What?》
He asks, looking at me quickly and then looking back on the road.
《Let me off.》 I repeat, in the same serious tone as before.
《No.》
I grab the door handle and try to open it, but obviously, he has put the safety on.
《I know you, ma chérie, I know you would have tried to go out.》
Damn.
《Escape, you mean.》
His victorious tone annoys me. I'm silent looking out the window, the landscape flows in front of my eyes, meadows, mountains in the distance and above all, the civilization that decreases continuously. I seem to recognize the area, I used to go there with my father to go for a picnic in the woods.
It's one of the things I love about Seoul:
You can move from a modern city lifestyle, polluted, hectic and always under stress, but once you set foot outside the city 1 or 2 hours away, you can see the amazing green nature that regenerates you.
We drive for a long time, it's already late at night, but the car makes strange noises, puffing like a bull and Jimin parks on the side of the road but there is nothing around us. Why did he stop right here?
《Why did we stop?》
He doesn't answer for a while, he stares at the dashboard of the car, eyes wide. But then when I think he has stopped working, he starts talking.
《I think the car broke down.》
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Some Chaemin is coming...?
What will the future hold for them?
