Chapter 30- “I think i like her”

Kai's POV

The thoughts of what if I liked JinHee lingered in my mind as I made my way to the living room.

The mere thought of her made the butterflies in my stomach danced but I was too immersed in my thinking to care.

I looked at the time and saw that it was almost 5pm. 

"I'm bored" I thought as I sat on the couch.

Should i call Jihyun?

Nah..... I just just sort out my feelings for JinHee *cue senseless heart fluttering* First.

If Sehun and I were to be on talking terms, I would have asked him for his opinion.

Who am I kidding, was it not his opinion that got us into this?.

I think its right time we talk it out.

I kinda miss my best friend.

With this thought in mind, I went up into my room, picked up my phone and dialed Sehun's number.

It rang for a few seconds before i heard the voicemail.

This repeated for a few more times before I concluded that he was not picking my calls.

Sighing, I dialed Sehun's Mom's number which I know off heart.

Since its the weekend, she'd probably be at home.

The important thing Sehun had gone to do at home yesterday was to go pick his mom from the airport.

After two rings, she picked up.

"Jongin!" She shouted causing a smile to appear on my face as I sat on the edge of my bed.

"Hello Mom"

"Hey honey, How are you?"

"I'm fine Mom, sorry I couldn't come with Sehun to pick you up from the airport yesterday, I had something to do in school"

"Its okay, Sehun told me you were on detention that was why you didn't make it"

"He did?"

"Yes, why do you sound surprised though? Is everything okay? I noticed you guys haven't hung out since I came back, and you had detention alone, that's like a first,  are you guys fighting?" she asked.

"Uh? Kinda" I replied softly as i rubbed the back of my neck.

I know Sehun's Mom will notice, seeing as The weekend is and has always been a day for Sehun and I. We play video games, basketball, dance together at Sehun's house or mine and when the whole gang is free we hang out in Minseok hyung's cafe.

But seeing as we didn't do any of that, she must have guessed something was wrong.

"Oh! I knew it! Sehun didn't even ramble about your outings when I asked you of him. What was it about?"

"Its my fault Mom"

"Awww its okay. So is that why you called? Cause you want to make up but he isn't picking your calls?"

"Haha yes mom".

"Okay,I'll get him for you"

"Baby!" I heard her shout.

"Sehun!" She repeated.

"Mom why are you shouting?!" I heard Sehun say groggily.

"Jongin wants to talk to you. He says you've been rejecting his calls"

They was silence for a few seconds, then I heard Shuffling and mom saying we should make up soon, so she can give us the things she brought for us from Dubai.

I laughed softly as she said an I love you to me.

"I love you too mom! And I'll come visit you soon" i answered as I opened my wardrobe.

"Okay ttyl"

"Kay"

I brought out a sweat shirt and pant and laid it on my bed.

"Hello" I said to Sehun.

"What do you want?"

"I'm sorry and We need to talk" I said seriously.

There was dead silence for a few seconds before he spoke up;

"Your house or Mine?"

"Yours. I'm coming over"

"Kay"

"Yes see you in a few"

I ended the call and put on the sweat pants and shirt. I picked up my bike keys and drove to Sehun's house.

*****

I came down from my bike and moved to the front door where Sehun's butler was standing with a few maids.

"Hello Master Jongin" he greeted as they opened the door. The rest of the maids were bowing.

"Young Master is waiting for you in his room" he added as I moved into the mansion.

I nodded at him and made my way to Sehun Room. The maids I passed by bowed at me in recognition since I'm like the other owner of this mansion.

I know the house like the back of my hands, so I made my way to the left wing of Sehun's mansion where his room is located.

"Madam says to meet her when you come, she's waiting for you in the kitchen" A maid said to me.

I nodded at her and moved towards the kitchen where i saw mom with an apron tied swiftly around her waist and a cooking gloves. She had a serious expression as she explained  something to the maids and they listened attentively.

The same maid that told me she was looking for me whispered something to her and she turned and looked at me.

"Honey!!" She exclaimed with her arms wide open.

"Hey mom" I greeted as I hugged her. She kissed the both sides of my cheeks repeatedly.

A smile crept on my face as she did this.

"I missed you baby" she coed as she kissed my cheeks for the last time before removing her arms that were wrapped around my waist. She removed her apron and gloves and gave it to one of the maids.

"I missed you more Eomma, you didn't even tell me you were coming back" I pouted as she dragged me to the living room.

"I'm sorry, i told Sehun to tell you but seeing as you were in your malice time then, I guess he didn't"

"He didn't, I heard it from Mr. Ki"  I said with a pout. She pinched my cheeks as we sat down on the couch.

"Its okay, I got you something to cover up for that " She said as she told a maid to go call Sehun.

"What is it?" I asked with twinkling eyes.

Sehun's mom is always a fan of splendid gifts which always makes us the kids get excited when she comes back from one of her world tours.

"I'll tell you after the both of makes up" she said with a playful smile.

"That's not fair!" I whined which made her to laugh.

"Thank God you're here. kiss and Make up you okay?, I'll go prepare dinner" She said as she looked at Sehun that was coming down from the staircase.

"Ewww" we both said at the same time, face scrunched up in disgust.

"Hahaha" she bent down and kissed my cheeks as Sehun sat on the couch opposite to me.

"I'll call you guys later for Dinner, so make up okay?" She added sternly as she eyed the both of us.

She kissed Sehun's cheeks and disappeared into the kitchen.

She left and We were suddenly engulfed in an awkward silence.

I looked at Sehun and turns out he was also looking at me.

I sighed and ran my hands through my hair.

"I'm sorry"

"I'm sorry"

We said at the same time.

"You go first" he said to me as he pocketed his phone.

I took a deep breath and sighed.

"I'm sorry for everything, for shouting at you, for not showing that I was grateful that you were there for me when she left even though I was, for everything i did that you didn't like. I'm sorry"

"I'm also at fault too, I'm sorry for shouting at you too, for telling you to move on when I know you were having a hard time doing so too, for telling you to forget her when she meant so much to you, I've never had the one I love leave me so I can't relate but I talked to the hyungs and Suho hyung told me somethings that made Me understand you in a way--"

"What did they say?" I cut him off. He looked at me with an indecisive look on his face.

'Just say it"

"They told me that if you love someone so much that I'll hard to forget that person when they leave, that when someone you care so much about leaves you, it hurts ten thousand times more than any physical pain and I know, I did know how much you loved her, how much she meant to you, how much you were willing to go extra miles for her, I know very well how much she meant to you and I'm sorry for telling you to move on and forget her when I know that you're also having a hard time,when i know that you're trying so hard to "

"I'm sorry Jongin for also telling you to like someone you don't want to like. The hyungs also made me know that you'll move on from her-when you find the one. You'll forget about her and move on when you find the one girl that makes your world complete. And I'm putting my all in it and telling you that you'll find her Jongin. She'll come. "

"About that, i wanted to tell you s-something " 

"What is it?, don't tell me that few days we didn't hang out, you found the love of life,cause I'm going to kill you"

I rolled my eyes at him.

"Why will you kill me?"

"Cause I was busy thinking about how to apologize to you and you were busy falling in love"

"I'm not in Love--" I said as I thought about what I felt for JinHee "--at least not yet"

"So what's this about?" He asked as he sat down properly.

"I think --"

"You think what?"

"I think I-i l-l-like Ji-JinHee" I said with a flushed face. Even calling her name sent my heart in a fast pace.

I looked up at Sehun and he was looking at me as i f I had two heads.

"W-what?" I asked him. 

He was silent for a second before the thunderous laughter sounds came.

He fell off the couch due to too much laughing.

"What's funny?" I asked.

"Omo!! Your face was bwahahaha" he laughed out more.

"I just told you that I think i like JinHee and this is how you react to it? Unbelievable!"  I said as a small smile ghosted my features.

"It isn't news to me man. I knew you liked her. You were just in denial the last time we spoke" he said as he got up from the ground he had fell on due too too much laughing and sat on the couch.

"I didn't say I liked her. I said I think I like her" I argued.

He have me a weird look.
"What's the difference? They're saying the same thing!"

"No they're two different things" I argued.

"I like you and I think I like you are two different things".  I reasoned.

He gave Me a "please explain"look.

"When you say I like you, you're certain that you like the person you're referring to but in this case I said “i think I like her” meaning that I'm not too sure of my feelings" I explained.

He rolled his eyes at me.
"What made you think that you like her?" He asked with his two fingers of each hands raised up in a quoting form when he said the "think".

I explained to him, how my heart beat accelerates whenever I think of her, how she had slept in my arms, to how she blushed when we made eye contact.

All in all, I explained how everything changed after that one night in The hall.

Sehun was looking at me in amusement as I explained, he aww-ed here and then, made stupid gestures when I explained. All while I blushed.

"That's all? You guys didn't make out?!" he asked with a fake gasp.

"M-make what?!" I could feel my face heating up.

"Are you crazy?! " I gave him a weird look as my face turned even redder.

"I'm just joking. you didn't kiss or anything?" He asked. I glared at him.

"What do you think of her? A hoe?. we didn't- oh! she p-pecked me when I dropped her off" I blushed as I remembered how she had pecked me.

My hand subconsciously went to the exact spot she had kissed yesterday and a smile crept on my face.

"You've totally lost it" Sehun said breaking me from my imaginative train.

"What?"

"You like her" he said as he got up and switched on the TV "its obvious" he added.

"What made you conclude that?" I asked as I cleared my throat in embarrassment.

"You were all blushy and smiley when you talked about the peck" he answered in a duh tone.

"Was I?"

"Yes you were smiling like a love sick fool"

This made me wondered....

"Am I ?"

"What? "

"A love sick fool?"
