09. glowing youth.
A/N: Miyun or Aoi? ;)
If you don't remember Miyun (I put her in this story) she's that weirdass giraffe from Backspace, Delete and Enter who's cute, random and pretty wise and kind-hearted actually. I'm trying to be slick as fuck right now and I'm advertising those three books of mine, so please read them when you can! It will mean a lot to me :)
Aoi's POV
"Oh. My. God. Hold me Rina before I smack Aoi on the face! Seriously! How dare you Aoiiiii?!" Joo-eun dramatically promulgated inside the whole convenience store as if she was making a scene. She pretended to faint backwards with the back of her palm on her forehead and landed perfectly on Rina's arms.
I gave her a small stare and started to look around me to see if there was someone listening, but even if there weren't any other people around I still became embarrassed.
"What the hell are you saying?" I blunted, "You're embarrassing."
"Embarrassing huh? It's been a week and I just found out that you aren't going out with Jimin like what the fuck? You have no idea what this makes me feel! Jimin has a crush on you like God damn." She immediately recovered back to her standing position and looked at me intently in the eye.
"You haven't figured out anything, right?"
I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms, "How can you tell he likes me or anything? I don't give a damn alright? And you didn't reveal any shit to me you hoe. I want to go home and lay on the couch all day, so bye bitches." I dismissed and was about to turn around to walk out of the store until Joo-eun firmly laid her hands on my shoulders.
"Hey hey bitch. I thought you wanted to be good person?" She said and squinted her eyes, looking directly at me.
I shrugged my shoulders, "Yeah. Okay?"
"If so, can you spend time with Park Jimin for today? I mean he's on his way here, you know. I'll promise I'll let him talk to you." She said and gave me a wink, surprising me like what she did to me last week.
How can they just call Park Jimin out of nowhere and tell him to show up that easily?
These imbeciles and their stupid ways, damn.
"What the hell?" I shouted, "No no no wait, are you forcing me to go out with him?"
Rina suddenly pushed Joo-eun away and stepped forward to walk in front of me. "Force? You just made us seem like the bad guys Aoi! If you want to be a nice person then it's an option to be with him! I mean seriously, yesterday you said you wanted to do a good deed but you just kicked a ball to a guy's face that day. Not cool, you twat."
I heaved a sigh.
"I kicked it on purpose because he was being an asshole to a girl!" I retorted.
Yes, I kicked it on purpose. He made a woman cry and even if I hate girls as much as I hate guys in general, making someone cry is complete bullshit.
I watched both of them face-palm in unison.
"That's not how you fix things.. You should've been nicer, and that's what you need to work out on!" Rina said. After a while, the edges of her lips curved up in a really wide grin that started to creep me out.
I was about to ask her why she was grinning at me like a creep until I felt someone tap my shoulder from behind me. What?
I turned around immediately and was greeted by a pair of eyes I've seen before, along with that playful smile which I started to adore.
"Good afternoon Aoi," Both of his hands were behind him as he tilted his head side to side in an adorable manner. "I guess I got called to be with you again."
Somehow I felt butterflies in my stomach because of his voice, I don't get to hear it often. Especially when he mentioned my name. Holy crap.
Keep calm Aoi, you're not you when you're with fucking Park Jimin.
"Leave me be, I don't like you." I rolled my eyes in front of him, just trying to talk to him sassily like I always do to other people.
"But he does!!" Joo-eun shouted from behind me, making Rina cover her mouth in process. I turned my head around to see the mental patients behind me and gave them a short glare telling them restrain themselves.
I then turned my head back to Jimin who remained silent like always. He's giving me an adorable smile and ran his fingers through his slightly disheveled hair, fluffing it up a little bit. I opened my mouth to say something but he interrupted me.
(A/N: holy fuck that was hot)
"Don't speak, just come with me." He invited and grabbed hold my right hand, making me flustered in a fraction of a second. His voice makes me feel weak, I don't even know why. He intertwined our fingers together and in a few seconds I could feel my cheeks getting warm.
It invountarily just happened, I know that I don't like Park Jimin. Especially guys like him. It's just completely absurd and ridiculous.

"She's lost." Jimin commented, his eyes focused on the small kid crying her eyes out after wandering around in circles in hopes of finding her mom and dad. We're in a park right now near a lake, surrounded by families and people on their bikes.
Everyone seems to mind their own business while I'm here with Jimin, staring at the crying girl and not knowing what to do.
"Obviously." I sternly said and turned to look at him. "You're stupid if you'll think that she isn't, so congrats for not being stupid." I continued to say and laughed. After laughing, I then noticed the expression on his face. It suddenly showed sympathy.
"Let's go find her parents." He suggested sincerely, surprising me a little.
"Why should we?" I said and let out a loud groan.
He gave me a short look and then looked at the small kid again. "Don't you like kids?" He asked me in confusion. I want to laugh again since he's asking me a stupid question.
"Why are you even asking me that? Obviously not. Kids are annoying and noisy, they do a lot of things to piss adults of-" I started explain but was cut off midway by Jimin pressing a finger against his lips.
"You don't need to explain," He said, "you can just stay here."
A smile appeared on his face as he kneeled down on front of the crying child, landing both of his hands on her delicate arms gently. He then looked at her in the eye but she's still crying with her head bowed down low.
Acknowledging the fact that her crying is preventing her from not make eye contact with him, he used his right hand to lift her chin up to look at him intently in the eyes.
"Hello there. What's your name?" He asked the little girl without hesitation.
The girl flinched in surprise of a sudden presence in front of her. "Y-yoorin." She answered with a stutter. Jimin's calming smile grew wider.
"Yoorin-ah, can you tell oppa why you're crying? I can help you." He then said casually. He sounds so sweet when he said that and it makes my heart race.
"Eomma.. appa.." She said in between her snifles. "I couldn't find them." She then managed to say and continued crying in an adorable manner. She looks so adorable saying those words and I felt my heart ache a little knowing that I couldn't help.
I just stood there without moving and continued to watch his actions. He turned his head at me and gave me a wink. He then made this gesture asking me to come with him to help her, but I simply shook my head.
I started to despise children a lot of years ago because I know that they all hate me. They become upset and give me the cold shoulder. It's because I'm not approachable, that's for sure.
"We're going to find your parents alright?" Jimin said and turned to me again with a bright smile. I was caught in a sudden trance because of him.
Why is he so gentle with children? He seems like a really warm person, especially at this moment. He's so not like me right here. I'm cold and I'm a bitch to everyone I know, even to those people I don't.
"Thank you oppa.. but what are you looking at?" The little girl then squeaked and turned her head to look at me as well after seeing Jimin staring at me like a fool.
A smile then appeared on her face and giggled a little, "Oppa, who is she? She's so beautiful."
I was speechless, my lips parted a little as I struggled to find words to say.
Beautiful? No I'm not.
"W-What are you saying? I asked, my voice trying to sound as warm as Jimin's but I sounded icy cold instead, "No, no, kid. You're mistaken. I'm not." I strongly denied, my arms immediately forming cross. This is completely false.
All the people who called me beautiful are those who lie to me and those who usually take it back after knowing me better.
My look shifted to Jimin who gave me a small nod saying that he understands me. Does he? He then diverted his gaze to the little Yoorin again.
"She's Aoi. I do think she's beautiful too, but isn't aware of that yet. Let's go, Yoorin-ah. Let's go find your parents."
Fucking liar.
