I SECRETLY KNOW IT

“Hi, I miss you already...” he said with a smile.

“Oh come in....” you said and open your door widely enough for him to enter.

“So, how’s you doing?”, he asked as you both sit on the couch.

“I just got finish cleaning my room...” you said.

“Anyways, it’s not that I want you to be here but what are you doing here?”, you asked.

“uh...I’m here to hear your answer.” He said smiling.

Minwoo had been courting you for almost a week already.

You can’t answer him directly as you were afraid that you’ll made a right choice.

There are also rumors on your school that he is a playboy.

You are afraid that the news is partly true.

And just weeks ago, one of your friends told you that Minwoo is courting her but she also said...

“Hey, are you okay?” Minwoo shake you a bit.

“eh...?” you are finally snapped out of your thoughts.

“Zahmin, I’ve been courting you in almost a week. But it’s okay, I will wait you. Do you need more time?” he asked with his angelic voice.

“You don’t need to wait anymore Minwoo” you said blankly.

He sighs in sadness as he thought...

“I don’t need to wait anymore because I’m rejected. Yeah, I know it” he smile lonely.

“Nope. You don’t have to wait anymore because I’ll... accept you” you said and smile.

That brings a bright smile on his face.

“Jinjayo?!” he asked as he was like can’t believe.

“Saranghaeyo~” he said and hug you.

You didn’t hug him back but patted his back instead.

Months Passed~

So far, so good. Your relationship with him is going well.

But are you sure you’re his only one?

You look at your wrist watch and the time says it was already 05: 48 p.m.

Minwoo is about to fetch you at 5:30 p.m. but he’s late in 18 minutes.

“Sorry, kinda bit late” he popped out of nowhere behind you.

“kinda bit late? I’m waiting for you for almost 20 minutes...” you frowned.

“I’m sorry.” He said and kissed you on the lips hoping it will lessen your madness at him.

“What took you so long?”, you asked.

“Our teacher didn’t let us to go outside our room unless we are complete lecture. And it happened I missed one lecture these days ago so I copy that first before I wrote down the new one.” He said and help you with your bag.

“No. it’s okay...” you smile and slide your bad again on your shoulder.

“You want to go to the park for a while?” he offered and you agree.

You were both on the park as you both sit on the couch.

You both want to sit on the swing but it was mostly occupied but the kids.

“I’m sorry Zahmin~” he said in all of a sudden.

“Why you keep on apologizing?” you said and lean your head on his shoulder.

“Nothing. I just want to.” He said plainly as he wrapped his arms on you.

“Minwoo, aren’t you keeping secrets on me?” you asked out of the blue.

“Do you really need an answer?” he asked while playing with your hair.

“Of course Yes” you said and hold tightly his free hand.

“That’s the reason...” he paused.

“Reason?” you asked as you caressed his hands.

“Yep. That’s the reason why I keep on saying sorry to you...” he said.

“I was a playboy before. I used to court 3 girls every day, and it’s always because of bet.” He said.

You were crying on that moment for some reason.

“I always lose on the games along with my friends and they always punishing me that I have to court 3 girls.” He said.

“And, I’m sorry because, that week when I was courting you I also court your friend. I didn’t know it way back but there’s the time when I saw both of you together...I’m really sorry. I’m stupid.” He said and let go of you.

You look at him. “ I knew that you are courting my friend and you are courting me on that time as well” you said.

He look at you in worried eyes as he saw you crying. But then it changes it to a surprise.

“Since...when?” he asked.

“On the first day you court me, I told it to them. And my friend said that you court her as well.” You said.

He lowered his head in embarrassment. “ But, I changed now. I change because of you. I’m really sorry for what I’ve done Zahmin.”, he said in a low voice.

You cupped his face as he look at you.

“Wait. But if you already know that I’m a playboy... why did you accept my feelings in the first place?” he asked.

You wipe your tears and try to smile at him.

“Do you know, what my friend told me the last? “ you asked.

He didn’t respond but you can see on his eyes that he’s curious.

[Flash Back] “...Minwoo also courted me, COURTED. But he told me that he court me because he was forced. And I do understand him, I don’t have feelings at him as well since I have someone.” Your friend said.

“So does it means that he also court me because he was forced at it?” you asked.

“NOPE. A Big NOPE. Don’t you know that he told me that... you’re the only girl that changes his life? And yes... I see all the sincerity on his eyes. He even cry in front of me saying sorry to me as well as on you as he thinks he is really a bad boy. I do understand him. You know, peer pressure.” She said to you.

“You’re so lucky girl, HE is head over heels on you.” Your other friend said to you. [End of Flash Back]

“Yeah, It’s so shy to say but... I really admit, I’m head over heels on you”, he said shyly.

“You’re different on the other girls...” he added.

“Minwoo, I already forgive you on what you’ve done. Just please, don’t do it again or else you will loose my trust on you~”, you said.

“Of course, I wouldn’t look at other girls anymore Zahmin. You’re perfect for me” he said and hug you.

“I love you ~” you said softly.

“I love you so much...Thanks for the trust” he said and kiss you passionately on your lips.
