Hey, everyone! Sorry for any spelling/grammar errors! Hope you like it! Enjoy! Third chapter here we come!
Ha Ni
Today's Saturday, two days ago I broke through Seung Jo's cold exterior, how in the world did things go back to the way they were before? I thought things were finally going to change between us. But, I guess not. How is it possible he's made me cry three times in the last two days?
You know what? I only have three days left with Seung Jo alone until eumoni comes back. So, I'm going to make a deal with myself; I am tired of a one-sided love, I'm tired of being hurt all the time by Seung Jo's cold exterior, so, if he makes me cry at any time for the rest of our time alone, than that's it. That is going to be my cue to leave. I can't spend the rest of my life chasing after him. No matter how much I love him. I have to stop and let him do the chasing, and if he doesn't, than I always have Kim Gi-tae, right? I just have to find him. Maybe I still have his number. If this week turns up badly, that's who I'll call.
But, for right now I will try to make things work out for the best. Which means calling Seung Jo and asking if we can go out tonight. Maybe all we need is a night out, away from the house.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiing, riiiiiiiiiiiiing.
"Yes, Ha Ni-ah?" Seung Jo's cold voice filled the void of ringing that, only moments before, filled my ears.
"Seung Jo! Hey, let's go out tonight. Please?" I played my best puppy dog voice and heard a long sigh come through the phone.
"Okay, if we must. When I get home, we'll go out. Where are we going?"
"I thought you could choose. I'll go along with whatever you want."
"Okay. Than I'll choose, but I'll have to think about it for a bit. I can't think of anything off the top of my head. And, Ha Ni?'
"Yes?"
"Why aren't you at lunch?"
I slid down a little lower in my seat at Dad's restaurant, where I was having lunch. There was nothing wrong with the cafeteria food; I was just in the mood for noodles. But if Seung Jo found out where I was, he might change his mind about going out tonight. I would tell him I was studying. Which, in some ways I was. I was studying the menu that is, even though I practically had it memorized.
"I'm…studying," I replied cautiously.
"Well, okay…try to learn something new then. See you tonight, Baek Ha Ni," he replied after a beat of silence.
"Goodbye, Seung Jo-ah! See you tonight, too!" I spoke happily.
Seung Jo
She wasn't studying. I knew that much for two reasons. The first, I could hear it in her voice (I know my wife pretty well, thank you), and two, I was two booths behind her at my father-in-law's restaurant. The only thing she was studying was the menu. But' anticipation for tonight is kicking in. I need to think of where I want to take her. Tonight, I was going to be the warm Baek Seung Jo she knew so well. And I was going to love the look of pure shock on her face when I acted like this.
So, it wasn't too boring was it? Review, follow/fav. Just wanted to kick the suspense up a notch for everyone! Thanks for reading! I'll be posting more soon!
