SIXTEEN

Chae Byeol

We went back to the convenience store so I could pay for the things. I stuffed the snacks in my bag.

"Should we check on Jugyeong?"

Sooho asked.

"If you want, I know you'll visit her anyway with you're little crush."

I teased him. He rolled his eyes playfully.

"C'mon we'll take the bus from here."

Sooho helped me walk to the bus stop, my leg was still sore.

We finally arrived to a comic book shop.

"Ooo it looks nice."

"I always come here, ever since I was little."

I nodded. We decided to sit down on a bench infront of it. Sooho opened up his backpack to bring out some medication.

"Here, give me your knee."

I raised my knee and he put on the ointment. I hissed in pain, it hurt.

"Stop being a baby."

Sooho said. He finally finished and patted my leg to let me know he was done. He then put the tube away.

"What about your lip?"

I asked him. He needed to put something on that.

"It's fine."

"Your lip looks swollen, here just give me the tube."

He handed me the ointment. I applied some to my finger.

"What are you doing?"

"Shhh, I am applying it."

I leaned forward and tapped my finger on his cut. He hissed in pain.

"Stop being a baby~"

I mocked him and he smiled a bit in return. I continued patting it on. A motorcycle stopped in front of us but I continued until it was all covered.

"Here. Thanks."

The voice made me turn my head, it was Jugyeong and Seojun.

Seojun gave her a ride here.

My heart tightened but I shook the feeling off. Seojun looked at us.

"What the-"

Jugyeong turned to us. They looked at us weird. I turned to Sooho and realized how close we actually were. I scooted back before they could assume anything.

"What are you guys doing here?"

Jugyeong asked.

"Waiting for you actually. We saw you guys get chased and we were worried."

I explained. Sooho got up to go to Seojun.
