Chapter 5: The Park

Lee-ah woke up in an unfamiliar place and sat up. She looked around the room until she saw a familiar face.
"Jungwon?"
Jungwon turned his head to her and smiled.
"You're awake?"
"Yeah. Is this your house?"
Jungwon nodded as she got up from the couch.
Soon a lady walked into the room and Lee-Ah bowed.
"Oh hi! You're awake!"
Lee-Ah smiled and nodded as Jungwon mentally prepared himself for embarrassment.
"I was so surprised when Jungwon brought a girl home on his back. Oh! Jungwon is this your girlfriend! Wow good job she's very pretty."
Jungwon face palmed himself in embarrassment as Lee-Ah just stared at him not knowing what to do.
"Mom!! She's not my girlfriend! This is Lee-Ah my friend!"
Jungwon's mom sighed in dissatisfaction.
"Oh this just won't do. I'm sure you like her! You even stayed with her for an hour making sure she was sleeping."
Lee-Ah widened her eyes as Jungwon almost screamed.
"MOM!!"
"Sorry son, but you can't be single forever."
Lee-Ah just stared at the floor trying not to blush.
"Okay I get that! But she already likes someone so, just forget about it."
The lady didn't say anything and the whole room went silent.
"Sorry Jungwon-ah, I'll be in my room if you guys need anything."
"Bye mom."
The lady sighed as she went upstairs.
Lee-Ah sat back down on the couch slowly as a Jungwon held his breath not saying anything.
"So, you know I like Heeseung?"
Jungwon sat down next to her and sighed.
"Actually, no. But now that you said it, I know you do."
"YAH!"
Lee-Ah threw a pillow at him as he laughed and got up.
"HAHA I KNOW YOUR CRUSH!!"

Lee-Ah was at home laying in bed when her best friend, Xiaoting, texted her.

Bye bestie.

Lee-Ah sighed and rolled out of bed.
She grabbed her phone, turned on her playlist, and got in the shower.
When she was done she took her phone back to her room and looked through her closet.
She finally found a white corset crop top and some black jean shorts.
She put on some white combat boots and grabbed her phone and bag.
She walked downstairs, grabbed her keys, and got in the car.

Lee-Ah ran her fingers through her hair in frustration as she had no choice but to go to the cherry tree.
As she got closer she recognized somebody.
When she realized who it was, the person looked at them with wide eyes.
"YOU?!"
Lee-Ah widened her eyes too.
"YOU?!"
Heeseung sighed as he sat down on the bench.
Lee-Ah went and sat down next to him.

"Sunghoon said he had a coupon for free ramyeon at a restaurant. That trader."
Lee-Ah almost giggled at the boy's look of despair.
"Well if it makes you feel better, Xiaoting told me she put me on a date then ghosted me."
Heeseung laughed at her as Lee-Ah rose her fist making him flinch.
"Well, if they put us on a date, might as well enjoy it."
Lee-Ah was probably blushing, but she didn't know it.
Heeseung's way of words makes her melt and fall for him even more.
He always knows what to say and how to say it.
"Sure, let's go."
Maybe it was the fact that they were on a 'date', or because he liked her, but Heeseung intertwined their fingers and started walking.
"So what do you wanna do?"
Lee-Ah snapped back to reality and thought.
"Um, do you want to.....I don't know."
"Wow, that helps a lot."
Heeseung rolled his eyes in sarcasm as Lee-Ah nudged him in the stomach.
"What about we go to my aunt's cafè?"
Heeseung nodded in satisfaction.
"Now you're good at the suggestion game."
Lee-Ah slapped the back of his head and ran as he chased her while yelling her name.

-🌸-
The bell rang as the two teens entered the cozy cafè.
Lee-Ah's aunt ran up to her and hugged her.
"Lee-Ah-ssi!'
She broke the hug as she saw the tall boy next to her.
Heeseung bowed as the lady smiled.
"This must be your friend!"
"Oh right, this is Heeseung, this is my aunt Ms.Jang."
"Hello Ms.Jang I'm Lee Heeseung."
Heeseung bowed once more.
"Oh, please, call me Yoon-Ra. Lee-Ah, your friend is very polite."
Lee-Ah smiled as Heeseung did the same.

"Oh, well you guys must be thirsty, what'd you like?"
"The usual, Heeseung what do you want."
"Uh, iced americano please."
The lady nodded as she went back to work.
Heeseung and Lee-Ah sat down at a table next to the window.
When their drinks arrived they thanked her aunt and took a sip.
Lee-Ah drank her Vanilla Latte as Heeseung just stared at his Americano.
"What's wrong?"
Heeseung scratched his nape and looked up.
"I don't really like bitter things, I just didn't think about what I wanted."
Lee-Ah nodded and smiled.
"Here, do you wanna switch?"
Heeseung just shrugged as they switched their drinks.
Heeseung drank Lee-Ah's drink and widened his eyes.

"WOW!"
Lee-Ah smiled as she saw Heeseung basically chug the drink.
"You know what we should do after this?"
Heeseung put the drink down and looked at her.
"What?"

"SHOPPING!!"

-🌸-

"Okay would I look good in this?"
Lee-Ah showed him a jean jacket and some jeans as he just sighed.

"You look great in anything, but my legs hurt, we've been here for an hour."
Lee-Ah just nodded. They had indeed been there for a long time.

"Okay well I'll just buy this. I kinda wanna wear it too."
Lee-Ah bought the outfit and put it on.
"Lets go!"
Lee-Ah grabbed his hand and walked out of the store.

"You know what we should do?"
Heeseung kept walking and looked at her.

"What?"
"We should go to Soyeon's party together. We could fake date to make her mad."
"That was so random."
"I know. But whether you like it or not, you're now my fake boyfriend."
Heeseung's face reddened, but he attempted to calm himself.

"Then you have to make me your lock screen."
Lee-Ah questioned it at first but took her phone out of her pocket and took a picture of him.

"Okay what about you?"
Heeseung just looked at her until she sat down and he got his phone out.

"Pretty."
Lee-Ah walked back to him and grabbed his hand.
"Do you know where she lives?"
"Yeah."
"Well, do you want a ride, I came by car."
Heeseung looked at her impressed.

"You have your license?"
"Since I was 17."
Heeseung nodded as they came to the parking lot.
When Lee-Ah took her keys out and unlocked the car, he almost choked when he saw which car unlocked.

"THATS YOURS?!"
Lee-Ah flinched at the action and nodded slowly.
"Uh, yeah?"
"Geez, you really are rich."
"I mean, a little I guess."
The two teens got in the car and started driving to the party.

-🌸-
"Omg you're here!"
Xiaoting ran to Lee-Ah who glared at her.
"Im gonna kill you."
Lee-Ah smiled at her as Xiaoting ran behind Sunghoon.
"Hey, it might have been a dumb move, but her heart was in the right place."
"You're lucky that your boyfriend came to the rescue."
Xiaoting back hugged Sunghoon and looked at Lee-Ah.
"At least I have one loser."
"Actually, I do too."
Xiaoting's lit up as she ran to Lee-Ah hugging her.
"YOU SHOULD THANK ME!"
Lee-Ah rolled her eyes.
"No, dumb bitch."
Xiaoting glared at her and Heeseung showed up behind Lee-Ah.

"Oh, hey."
The three turned to look at Heeseung who had two cups in his hands.
He gave a cup to Lee-Ah who took it.
"Thanks."
"So like, are you guys a thing now?"
The two stared at Sunghoon who was suddenly interested in the conversation.
"Uh, yeah. Heeseung's my boyfriend now."
Heeseung nodded as the other two just stared at them.
"All thanks to my plan."
Xiaoting skipped away happily as Sunghoon just shook his head.
"I sincerely apologize for.....you know...her."
Sunghoon jogged after her leaving Lee-Ah and Heeseung staring at them.
"Weirdos."
