16: DINNER

16: DINNER

***R O S É

I never know how dangerous it is as a fangirl to like her idol not as his fan but to like him as a man.. until I saw Chanyeol Oppa with another girl on that coffee shop.

I felt jealous and it's so hard to control. I don't know how to react, I am being cold.

It felt nasty. I am not like that.

And here I am now, another three days have passed and I am still avoiding Chanyeol Oppa. I am not even responding to any of his calls and messages because I felt guilty of being jealous.

Because I know I don't have the right to be jealous.

My mind is busy floating about thoughts of Chanyeol Oppa while playing the guitar when the door to Jennie Unnie's room open, she looks like she's going somewhere.

"Going out?" I asked her.

Jisoo Unnie is out with Lisa today to buy some groceries. I guess I'll be alone in the house for a few hours because Jennie will probably have a date with Kai, I am still quite surprised about the news that they are dating!

They are like match made in heaven so I shipped it.

"Uhmm.." she probably felt guilty of leaving me here alone. "Do you want to come?"

I want to laugh. Jennie Unnie is considerate and sweet like that but I don't want to be a third wheel so no thanks.

"No, I'm fine here Unnie. I'm busy." I said as I continue to play my guitar.

I gave her a teasing smile and she frowned because of that. I just want to gave her a look that says enjoy your date with the Kim Jongin of EXO but she already looks defensive. It's really fun teasing Jennie Unnie hehe.

Though, I am genuinely happy for her. I want her to be happy and Jisoo Unnie and Lisa as well. I want the best for all my members, for them to be happy and loved by the guys they will give their hearts to.

And so I asked, "are you happy?"

Jennie Unnie stared at me for a while. I am sitting on the carpet, my back on the couch and she sat on the couch to scoot near me.

"Why do you ask?"

I shrugged my shoulder and strum the strings of my guitar on a sweet calming tone. Looks like her date isn't here yet.

"I.." I started. "I don't want you to stop being happy Unnie. I can see that you are genuinely happy with Kai."

I can see it in her eyes that she likes him and I can see it in Kai's eyes that he likes her back. I am happy for the both of them. They are lucky.. to like someone who reciprocates the same feeling that they gave. Unlike mine.. being unrequited.

I looked up at Jennie Unnie and gave her a sweet smile. "I am happy that you are happy."

Jennie Unnie smiled because of what I said. I was feeling our serene moment of girl talk when she said, "do you want me to ask Kai Chanyeol's number for you?"

I blinked.

Her words processed on my mind for a moment. "Yah!" I smacked her arms while she laughed at my flushed cheeks. "Don't you dare Unnie"

She doesn't have to because I already have Chanyeol Oppa's number!

"Why? It's every EXO-L's dream to have his number!" Jennie Unnie is surely teasing me!

"Yahh! Stop teasing me Unnie!" I whined, I am already looking like a tomato!

Jennie Unnie's laugh echoes on my ears. She's teasing me of Chanyeol Oppa and I hate to admit that I am liking it but it feels illegal, Chanyeol Oppa is a friend. I can't.. I can't risk our friendship just because I like him so I want to stop this feelings of mine for him.

But how could I when just a mere teasing from Jennie Unnie makes me this crazy for Chanyeol Oppa?

I feel like a hopeless case!

"Aren't you tired of just glancing at Chanyeol from afar every award show~?" Jennie Unnie continue to tease.

She even jumped out of the couch when I stood up and grab a pillow. She run off and I run towards her.

"How would I ever get tired of his handsome face?" I huffed as an answer.

"Then let me help you color your lovelife!"

Jennie Unnie run towards the door as I continue to run after her.

"Yah Unnie!"

I shouted and throw the pillow I was holding. I was sure I aimed the bullseye. I am confident that the pillow I threw will hit Jennie Unnie fast and hard but she avoided it! And.. and..

"Meeff~" I quickly back away and run towards my room!

"Dude! Straight on the face!Bull's eye!"" I heard Kai Oppa's chuckle followed by Jennie Unnie's laughter echoes throughout our dorm.

I quickly jump on my bed to cover myself on my comforter. I just want to be bury like a potato!

***

Sadly, Jennie Unnie managed to pulled me out of my cave. And here I am now, having face to face dinner with Chanyeol Oppa who is glancing at me from time to time.

And me? I am still ignoring him.

"Hi. I'm Chanyeol. You can call me Chanyeol Oppa." He greeted me? Like we don't know each other?

I nodded, feeling disappointed for some reason that he wanted to act as strangers. "Uhm.. uhh.. nice to m-meet you."

I stuffed the noodles on my mouth and look away out of embarrassment because of my stuttering! Jennie Unnie laugh loudly at my now tomatoe-like-cheeks!

The dinner goes on with Kai Oppa and Jennie Unnie seeming to be locked in their own world. They sat very close to each other, giggling out of nowhere and whispering of words that I couldn't hear but it seems like Kai Oppa is teasing Jennie Unnie of something. I even saw Jennie Unnie rolled her eyes at him.

And because the lovebirds are busy, that leaves me to have no one to talk to but Chanyeol Oppa.

..who scooted over to sat near me.

I tried to move my sit away, being near him made my heart beats wild! Chanyeol Oppa is the only person who have the power to raise havoc on my whole system, as if all my food came back to life and tickles me from the inside!

I coughed, feeling my cheeks burning red. I have been avoiding him for while now huh..

"Are you okay Rosé-ssi?" Chanyeol Oppa's voice is laced with worry, "your face is red.. do you have a fever?" He tried to touch my forehead but I look away.

"N-Neh.. I'm okay.."

His touch is dangerous. It always send electricity on my skin with every contact!

The whole dinner, I wish I would be more of a talkative person to Chanyeol Oppa the way I used to before, but how could I when I could only ponder on how to control my feelings for him whenever I look at his handsome face?

Don't ever made me start on how hard I restrict myself whenever my eyes absentmindedly landed on his soft pouty reddish lips!

"Ooh lala~ we got handsome visitors on the house yo!" Lisa entered our dorm with her loud mouth.

"Annyeong." Chanyeol Oppa greeted her with a smile. "I'm Chanyeol."

"Lalisa." Lisa extended her hand which Chanyeol Oppa accepted.

I am pretty sure that they have met before, when Lisa pulled me to meet with Sehun on the restaurant and Chanyeol Oppa is there as well. I huffed, well maybe this is their second time meeting. Unlike me, who is his friend.. so why is Chanyeol Oppa acting strangers with me as well?

I saw Jisoo Unnie entered our dorm with tons of paper bag on her hand, "hello~ I'm back!"

"Annyeong." Chanyeol Oppa greeted her, "I'm Chanyeol."

"You can call me Jisoo." Jisoo Unnie smiled warmly.

I don't know why.. I am feeling this gloomy feeling on my stomach again. I can't help but sulk. Why am I back to being the girl who always stutters around Chanyeol Oppa again?

Why is he acting like he doesn't know me?

I thought we are friends already?

I am his special friends.. I am just.. ignoring him for a while because of this feelings of mine but I don't want to be strangers with him!

"Rosé-yah~" Jennie Unnie pulled me out of my thoughts with her teasing voice. "Your lips might fall out of your face."

"Why are you sulking in the corner Rosé?" Jisoo Unnie looked at me and smile.

Suddenly, everyone's attention is on me. Am I sulking? Why didn't I notice that I am in the corner all alone here while munching on my cheesy chicken drumsticks..?

My mouth is now full of chicken, I can't talk properly for me to depend myself! Huhuhu~

"Uhm.." I tried to swallow the foods before talking. "I jwust wayk to eatch alone."

Ugh! I sounded stupid!

"Kyeopta~"

My eyes went to Chanyeol Oppa and saw him staring at my face. He smiled warmly and it made all the gloomy feeling creeping to my stomach went away.

All I could feel now is the blush coloring my cheeks..
