" I...I like you, Jia. "
Am I hearing this right? Is this even happening right now? What if he meant like—as a friend? That could be possible, right?
" Uhm–I–i like you too? I mean, we're friends and friends are supposed to like each other, right?— "
" I don't mean it that way. "
" Then?... " I know I sounded like I'm doubting his feelings but I want to know if he's dead serious. What if he didn't mean it Im the one who would get hurt.
" I like—like you and not as a friend, "
Silence followed, and we were just staring at each other. I was hesitating if I should tell him I like him too, I mean, this would be a great chance right?
" I know I said it out of nowhere but—like, I wanted to tell you sooner. And, I won't force you to like me back or anything. If I need to wait for your response, I will. " Mark spoked.
I didn't know why I still wasn't saying that I like him too.
But...Haechan,
After staring at each other's eyes for who knows how long, he looked down, smiling sadly.
" It's ok, I hope I won't make you awkward around me. I'm sorry, I just...had to say it. "
" No, It's just— " He looked at me, waiting for me to continue.
" I—, " Before I could even speak, my phone was ringing. I lookes at it, recognizing the number.
' Haechan Pudu ' calling....
My eyes went wide reading it. He can't know I'm with Mark at this hour! He would probably be upset about this again, Does he think I'm stealing Mark away from him?
I glanced at Mark, before speaking.
" Excuse me– " I said,
" Yeah, sure " He nodded. " Thanks, " I answered.
" Hello? " I greeted.
" Jia? " He said, voice low.
" Yeah? Is something wrong? You're calling out of nowhere. "
" I'll ask you a question, can you answer it honestly? "
" Uhm—Ok? " I answered, confused.
" Where are you right now? "
I freezed, hearing his question. I can't tell him I'm with Mark, He's been pretty sensitive about it...
" Uh—I'm with Jisung right now, watching a movie at his room. " I said, hoping for him to believe my pathetic ' excuse ' or more like a ' lie ' .
I heard him sigh over the phone, then he spoked. " I'll hang up now. "
I was about to end the call when I heard him speak again but it was more like a whisper.
" I'm disappointed in you. "
