what are we - lee know

six

hours passed ever since the incident and yeji acompaniated my presence, both skipping the last two classes of today, considering that it was the friday before an elongated weekend, everyone was either outside, or somewhere relaxing.

me and yeji sat by the caffe attached to the school.

,,so what was up with you and Minho eariler?''

said i quickly tore my eyes away from the high dreaded college building from which we just left and faced yeji whose question i couldn't really answer

,,i have no idea, hes just annoying'' i answered propping my hands behind me, resting my weight on them ,,i don't know whats his problem'' i added.

,,he likes you''

my eyes suddenly widened,and i could feel my heart stomach dropping only at the thought of that statement being genuine

my attention shifted to yeji who stood right next to me on the nearest chair, openly smiling while taking a sip out of her drink ,,quit messing around, id rather die than think about that'' i said, irritation evident in my voice

,,he never gives people this much attention'' she ushered me towards the pay check, giggling

,,thats not attention, hes just simly being annoying, stop'' i demanded, getting up

embarrassed, i hesitantly turned around to walk, but stopped by the tracks when yeji grabbed my hand

i was rather annoyed than embarrassed, totally caught off guard.

,,thats his way of showing someone he cares about them, trust me''

,,okay, either way i don t care''

yeji remained silent, sensing that i wasn't really happy about the talk that we just had, so she got up in silence, but she kept on smiling awkwardly

i did not expect that sudden answer, so i pondered for a moment before noticing yejis big sudden smile, shooking my head dramatically

yeji could not help but chuckle ,,so where do u wanna go now?'' she inquired picking at her nail

i directly shot her a look ,,home, i can't stand being with u in the weekends as well'' i laughed forcibly, my mind still focused on her dumb affirmation

,,yea id love going shopping with you as well, Jeyeon'' yeji giggled one more time before taking me by my hand and heading our way through the crowded street

,,i seriously can't stand you anymore'' not a second later, yejis smile was back holding onto my arm tight

,,i love you too'' yeji cheerly said

i wasn t sure if the expression i was returning was a smile or a disgusted look of constipation

,,i don't''

a small scoff espaced yejis lips ,,oh also i wanted to ask u something more seriously'' she smiled, confident that i was going to politely accept whatever she was going to propose ,,would u like to be my roomate?''

i suddenly stopped in the middle of the street sparing yeji a look, confusion being evident in my expression ,,what?'' i sputtered, looking at yeji.

,,huh?...''

,,are u serious?'' i trailed off waiting for a response

,,i am'' yeji said, her voice filling with excitement ,,ur like my best friend, and spending time with you makes me happy'' she chirped

the adrenaline in my body evolved like crazy, yejis question was so tempting and it seemed like the exactly right thing that i needed right now, an escape from that shit hole was more than releasing, but at the same time who was going to look after dad and everything..i couldn t just go.
