I just couldn't sleep... Oh God, does he like me? I mean... He kissed me but why did he have to run away like that and leave me dumbfounded?! I feel violated. I cry inside and hugged my stuffed bunny as I cover myself with a blanket. Aww... If he likes me too, why doesn't he tell me himself? Oh gosh... I don't know what to feel right now... Should I tell him what I feel first? But won't that make me look low? Awww~ What to do? I just hope we feel the same for each other...
. . .
"Honey, what happened to your leg?" My mom asks as she eyes the bandaged part of my knee. She then hands me my lunchbox. We just finished eating breakfast and I'm about to leave for school already.
"Umm, I hurt myself in P.E. class mommy. It's okay now!" I lied and gave her a smile. She kissed my cheek and I kiss her back... The kiss made me remember what Taeyeonie-oppa did last night. AHHHHHH! I hope he doesn't show up now... I feel so embarrassed about what happened...
I am finally out of our house. I survey the area. God, please! I don't see him in sight so I walk a few steps and suddenly someone covers my eyes from behind. Oh gosh... Don't!
"Who am I?" He asks playfully. Of course it was oppa! I smiled but deep down I was also nervous.
"Taeyeonie-oppa? I know it's you!" He lets go and I turn to face him.
"Hi, good morning! How's your knee?" He asks. It still hurts a bit but I guess it's better now.
"It's okay. Doesn't hurt like before." I smiled.
"That's nice. Where's your bag? I'll carry it for you. Can you walk? Is it painful?" He shoots question after question. I know he's just being concerned and thoughtful but I have to make sure... What are we? Do friends act like we do? Feel what we feel? What does he feel about me anyways? I'm really confused. I know things happened fast... It just makes me wonder even more.
He grabs my bag and holds my hand. We started walking to the bus stop. I couldn't hold it any longer. I stopped walking. He turns to me.
"Hey what's wrong? Does it hurt?" He worriedly asks as he looks at my wound. He then stares at me waiting for my response. I shook my head.
"Oppa... Why are you doing this?" I asked him all of a sudden. He gives me a weird look.
"Because I care for you..." He answers. Please don't lie to me or hide oppa... God, please help us. I think we feel the same; I'm just not sure enough! Amen.
"Do you care so much that you had to kiss me? Friends don't kiss like that..." I looked down, too embarrassed from what I just told him. I heard him gulp.
"I-I-I... Don't know why I did that... To be honest... I was shocked myself..." He chuckles at the end. Is he playing a prank on me? I studied his expression...
"Oppa... Please be really honest." I pull his sleeve.
"I-I-I... Can I tell you after class?" He nervously asks. I gave him a very serious look. I hope he says what he has to say. I don't wanna feel confused anymore. But whatever he has to say, I hope it's not that he just wants to toy with my feelings. I know oppa is not that kind of person but one should expect the worst. If I assume too much that he likes me, I might get heartbroken if it really isn't like that.
"I don't feel comfortable telling you right now..." He pats my shoulder.
"Okay oppa. But... Umm, can you please not hold my hand? I feel a bit... Weird. I'm sorry." I looked down. He lets go of my hand. I faced him and smiled.
"Sorry... Ah let's go?" He walks ahead of me. I just pray things won't awkward! What did you do Tiff?! Maybe I just should've let it pass... Maybe I shouldn't have told him... But I really can't help it! We then head to the bus stop.
We boarded the bus and sat down. He was being silent again... I feel bad for having to ruin whatever it was we had now. Oh gosh. I tapped his arm.
"Hmmm?" He doesn't look at me. I frowned and continued tapping him.
"Are you mad at me oppa? I'm sorry I made a big deal out of it..." I said. I was nervous... He finally faces me.
"Ah no! Why would I be mad at you? You should be the one mad at me! Euhehe! I mean I guess, it was a big deal... That... Kiss... I'm really sorry about that..." He whispers at the end. We smiled at each other. I don't know but it feels weird right now...
. . .
I'm really upset right now. No it's not because there are rumours spreading that me and oppa are going out or those rumours that I am a pretentious goody goody... I actually don't mind those stuff because they're untrue... What I was upset was the fact that Buck is being a jealous freak, an immature friend and just violent. I thought he was nice... I could have considered him as a potential boy friend but I'm actually thankful that I didn't, after what he did to oppa.
Today, he keeps on apologizing to me... But I told him that I need some time to think about what he did. I forgave him but that doesn't mean I'm gonna forget what he did. After class I told Yuri to go ahead already. I told her that I'll just be talking to someone and it was important that I went alone. Fortunately, she agreed. Oppa told me to meet him at the roof deck after our class. I went on my way after talking to our class president because I was the secretary, just class stuff.
I see oppa standing at the edge. I approached him. Please tell me every thing oppa... I pat his shoulder and smiled. He smiles back.
"Ah hi... Did you let the school nurse see your wound?" He asks. I shook my head.
"No, I forgot. Haha!" I tried to stay cheerful. Hopefully our talk will end up cheerfully, hopefully please!
"Aish! I told you to!" He pouts. He looks really adorable. Hmph! Focus Tiff! Focus on the task at hand!
"I can go tomorrow oppa! Can you explain why... You kissed me now?" I tried to maintain a happy tone. I was feeling really nervous... But I really have to know...
"Oh... Euhehe! I... I... Really don't know..." I pouted at him.
"Hmmm? You really don't know?" I asked.
"Well... I kissed you... Because... I... Really..." I nervously wait for the next words to come out of oppa's mouth! Ahhhhh! This is killing me now!
"I... Really like... Kissing people... That I feel close with..." He looks down. WHAT?! He likes kissing people? Awww~ Is that it? I must admit... I feel disappointed... But, I guess it's just like that... I smiled widely.
"Oh really? Haha! That is so cute of you oppa... Well, I guess it wasn't really something to fuss about after all... Umm, I gotta go then! See you tomorrow!" I tapped his arm. He looks at me and gives a slight grin. Inside, I was relieved and hurt for some reason. Relieved, that he didn't like me because if we did like each other it would be awkward. I mean, he's nice... But he isn't my ideal boy friend... Hurt because I somehow felt like he was giving me hints that he liked me but then it turned out he really didn't after all. AHHHHH! I'M SO CONFUSED! God help me now... Amen.
I turned around and walked away. Halfway the roof deck, I felt oppa grab my arm so I turned around.
"Oppa? Why?" I was puzzled. He bites his lips. I stare at him.
"I forgot to ask you something..." His grip tightened. I looked at his hand and at his face. What could it be this time?
"Do you like... Me?" My eyes widened at his question! AHHHHH! Do I have to answer this right now. I nervously laugh...
"Excuse me?" I was shocked. My palms started to get sweaty and my heart beats really fast.
"... Because,
I like you...
For a long time already..."
