He pressed the key switch and he doors opened. Both MinRin got in the back seat leaving me standing outside. There was no way I was going to sit in the front seat beside him I thought. I contemplated third wheeling or sitting beside him and just decided on the latter.
I sighed as I got in the car and sat beside him. I closed the door and looked back to see MinRin inhaling each other gross. I looked at Shiwoo to see him already staring and I raised a brow. His eyes diverted to a spot on my neck and I felt the area heat up.
"Shiwoo would you drive the damn car and stop eye raping her" said Harin from the back seat seemingly annoyed.
"Oh please as if you two weren't practically eating each other a second ago" I responded embarrassed.
Without a word Shiwoo drove the car to our apartment and both Harin and I got out. I missed his company as soon as the car drove off and I hated that.
We entered the building and I saw the same technicians from this morning. Great just what I needed. More embarrassment.
"Oh hey nice to see you again. Whenever you and your boyfriend get stuck in the elevator again you know who to call" said one of them saluting smiling proudly. He looks so innocent while ruining my day. How cute.
"Boyfriend?" questioned Harin with a raised brow.
"Uhh he must have had me confused" I lied running to the elevator.
She ran after me and entered the elevator, "We need to talk." She sounded serious.
"Talk about what?" I asked playing dumb.
"About what's going on between you and Shiwoo. I am not dumb and I have eyes" she said angrily.
"Fine" I said sighing.
It was about time I told her. The truth was going to come out anyways.
The elevator dinged at our floor an we exited. We walked in silence down the corridor until we arrived at our apartment door. She opened the door with the key from under the mat and we went in. I considered bolting towards my room and closing the door but she would have just kicked it down and dragged me by my hair. Speaking about my hair I seriously needed to wash it.
"Spill" she said pulling me to sit on the couch.
"They're is nothing happening I swear" I sighed.
She raised her brow stating that she didn't believe me.
"We are not dating and we will never be. We just have been finding our selves in weird situations these days" I said truthfully.
"Weird situations such as sucking each other necks live some kind of vampires? I saw the both of your necks Atalia you guys are very much obvious" she stated sounding hurt.
"Hey are you hurt? I'm sorry for not telling you but there isn't anything to tell. He just so ughh" I groaned.
"I warned you Atalia but you just had to choose him of all people!" she yelled getting up from her spot on the couch.
"What do you mean him of all people Harin? Is there something I should know about?" I asked holding onto her hand. Her behavior has been strange lately.
"We hooked up Atalia! Several times! He's no good and you should just stay away. You'll just get hurt" she said pulling her hand away from mine.
Wait. Did I hear her correctly?
"You guys hooked up?" I asked softly a soft pang in chest followed by the realization of he words. "Is that why he was so familiar with the apartment and has the spare key that you said you lost?!" I asked feeling betrayed.
She nodded her head yes signifying that my suspicions were true. I should have known it from the start but I was too naïve and stupid. No I knew and I knew I knew. I was just giving them the benefit of the doubt.
"When did this happen?" I asked confused for I was always here and I don't remember seeing Shiwoo before that time in the dungeon.
"When you went away for the two weeks seminar. Look I was lonely and we met and he seemed amazing. He wasn't. He's an asshole Atalia. He gains pleasure from hurting girls like us and that's why I warned you. I'm sorry for bringing you there that night and I'm sorry for all of this" she said sobbing.
I went over to embrace her and she cried in my arms. I still felt betrayed but she was my only friend. I couldn't leave her in a moment she needed me the most. I knew she would never leave me.
"I just wish you would have told me" I said softly as I rubbed her back.
"I'm sorry. Tally promise me you won't see him anymore" she begged.
I looked her in her red puffy eyes and wiped a tear from her swollen cheeks. I found it hard to promise her for I didn't want to lie.
"You like him don't you?" she asked disappointed.
I nodded my head yes. This must have been the first time I had admitted this to Harin but most importantly, myself, "Yes I do like him but I am not going to be with him not after what happened between you two."
She looked me in the eyes and decided that I was telling the truth.
"I just don't want you to get hurt Tally. I love you like a little sister" she said wiping her tears.
"I won't" I said with a reassuring smile.
Now that I knew the truth I didn't know how to feel. I like Shiwoo I really do but our love was ill-fate if you can even call it love.
It just was simply never meant to be.
I went to bed that night with Shiwoo on my mind? My hear felt as if it had been shattered into a million pieces and we weren't even dating. How dare he act as if he didn't put Harin through that! How dare he come into my life and stir my emotions! How dare he make me fall for him! How dare he play with my heart! How dare he be the only man I want! How dare he be the only guy who had me feeling this way! And how dare he be so damn beautiful while doing this!
I know why because he was the devil's son. He is conniving and evil and he had to be the last thing I think of before bed and the first thing in the morning. I am not okay.
