#17 The Drama Intensifies, Again

Mina's POV:

"Ehemmm... You're staring at that thing for about hours now." Momo faked a cough through the screen to capture my attention, or more like to wake me up from my daydream.

"I just can't get enough of it. It's too pretty." My hands travelled to my neck, tapping the necklace with so much care. Like, it was the most fragile thing in the world. I plastered a smile by the thought of it.

"Hmmm... Is it too pretty or is it because the guy the you're currently in-love with gave it to you?" I averted at the screen while the latter casually raised her brow, giving me a teasing face in general.

"I think your second opinion matches with my feelings right now. Eeeiii!" I burst out by squealing, feeling hundreds of butterflies flickering all over my stomach.

"I knew it." She gave out a bored expression, yawning like she already predicted the future. Because of that, I didn't even steal a glance at her and laid all of my attention to the special thing around my neck.

"Tell me, is he really that likeable? To the point that you're already mentally ill?" At first, I gave her an offended look. Yet afterwards her words sank deep on my brain and realized that she had a point, I immediately nodded for like hundred times.

"Girl what?!" Silence engulfed between us as she blinked continuously.

"It's a good illness though. Isn't it ironic because he's more like of my serotonin? Well, anyways, glad I was diagnosed with this disease. It feels awesome!" I sighed in a good way, looking at the sun that is setting down through my glass window.

"What is freaking wrong with you?" The latter froze with an unexplainable look.

"Wonwoo shouldn't have bought you that necklace yesterday. You're literally crazy for him." She added.

"Indeed Momo! But in all seriousness, I never met a guy like him before. He's like an acupuncture. With a sharp needle, he pricked all the points of my standards without missing a single nerve. He's got everything I want and need. I admit that sometimes he's bossy and a bit of a snob but, not once in my life I ever felt the care that he offered to me. My past flings are nothing compared to him. He's different Momo, very different." My heart fluttered. I never knew I could be so sentimental over a guy. I'm not complaining though. I'm liking it even though these feelings are unfamiliar to me.

"Woah. You're in danger Mina. You have fallen... so... so... deep. You're drowning." I glanced at her and she's acting as if my life is at stake right now.

"And you can't save me from that." I smeared a tiny smile at the end of my lips.

"Never planned it anyways." She chuckled that caused me to do likewise.

"Look, based from your bed-time stories, probably the book two of The Tales of Wonwoo, I pretty much assume that he's a really good person. So don't worry cause I'll always support you. I felt your genuine happiness because of him." I immediately showed her my puppy eyes after she said her endearing speech.

"Thanks Momo. But here comes the problem now— he's too good that I don't deserve someone like him." I sighed.

"Don't be such a fool Mina! Stop saying nonesense!" She spatted but I was then distracted when I heard knocking sounds outside. I can't hear it that much so it's probably on Wonwoo's door.

"Um... I'll call you back sis. Love you." I rushed outside my door, desperate to know the person behind this surprising scheme.

"Excuse me, may I help you?"

"I thought it was an emergency, you pig. Why did you call me like you're dying or something?" Jun whispered at me.

"Cause Wonwoo still have classes, you maggot. Besides, this stranger told me so, and I suppose you already know him. So tell me, who's this young man who's judging my apartment right now?" I mumbled while asking Jun that question. We're both trying our best not to be obvious because we're literally talking about the person who's just inches away from us. He might hear us anytime.

"He's not very young okay? But he's the youngest among the three of them. He's Wonwoo's younger brother, the sassy one." He emphasized the last three words, still whispering to the point I can only hear air.

So that explains why his eyes are so familiar. The Jeons have good genes as expected.

"Do you have food? I'm hungry." After surveying every inch of my room, Wonwoo's brother sat down on my small kitchen, abruptly.

"What?" I asked. He's sitting like he owns this room, unbothered. This somehow make my blood boil for a millisecond. He's making me look like I'm his servant!

"Sunoo, come on. This is not your house. Besides, you're the guest. Also to inform you, she's your brother's friend." Jun finally opened his mouth, revealing the name of the man in front of me.

"So? What?" He sarcastically said
while scoffing.

Oh this little kid!

"If you're really hungry, then I insist. I have ramen he—"

"Nah, I'm already sick of it." He cut me off without notice and it caused me to stare at him. So, I held my anger tightly to avoid if from bursting.

"Well, I have fresh eggs that I bought from the marke—"

"So basic."

"Then let's stick to cerea—"

"Ew, no way!"

"Then how abo—"

"Hundred percent no."

"How—"

"Negative one."

"H—"

"Disgusting sheet."

"Yah!!!" Like a bubble, I popped in no time. This guy is killing me and is making me go nuts!

"Tsk. Come on. Don't you just have anything more...exotic?" He said in a sassy tone.

I closed my eyes for a second and took a deep breath. It looks like I have a new challenger for the day. This little monster!

"If you want exotic then you should go to the jungle and find something edible there!" With sarcasm I stated. I then crossed my arms, eyeing him with a sassy look in return.

"Well well well. You're attitude is not so lady-like. You have no manners at all." He stood up from his seat, closing our distance. His eyes got colder so I did likewise.

"Well well well. You're attitude is also not so gentleman-like. You have no respect at all." I glared at him, making sure that he's seeing fire burning right in front of my eyes. I can sense him getting more annoyed— which I probably like.

"So, you're Myoui Mina. The one who's my brother have been with all along. I bet he barely survived!"

"Oh kiddo! Correction, he barely survived without me. You just can't accept the fact that I'm keeping him alive until today!"

"He's already in a stable life before you came in the picture!"

"But he's not emotionally stable before I came into the picture!"

"You—"

"Enough." The both of us stopped in an instant when Wonwoo appeared beside the two of us. Jun, on the other hand, was casually holding his laughter.

"The both of you, we need to talk."
