"I Think I Like Her" -Tif (1/1)
AUTHOR’S POVEven though it was still raining, Jessica walked up ahead and left her younger sister, it was all because her younger sister couldn’t stop waving to her newfound crush, Hwang Tiffany. Grinning all the way home, Krystal followed her sister, without even remembering the first reason she caught up under the heavy rain.*SNEEZE!*Krystal turned her head to see her sister quivered, “Are you okay, Jess?” Jessica nodded and took her towel and headed to her bedroom, the younger sister shrugged then headed to her own room.But then Krystal realized something, ‘Does Jess know about Hwang Tiffany? She once hid from her… Who is this Hwang Tiffany? Wait, what’s with the Hwang? The surname seems to be very common around me these days…’“Come in…” A weak answer came from the inside of her sister bedroom, Krystal turned the knob and headed inside, “Are you okay, Jess?” Jessica sneezed once again then nodded, Krystal frowned, she walked to her sister, who was already curling under the warm thick blanket.The younger girl put her hand over her sister’s forehead, “Jess, you’re sick. I will call your school tomorrow, you rest now.” With reddened nose Jessica frowned, “I have a test tomorrow…” Krystal frowned even more, “But your cold will get worse if you don’t take a day off…”“But…”“Uh uh, no, you stay, I will get you a bowl of warm soup and medicine.” Jessica just nodded as she tightened up her sweater, she regretted for being childish and ran away just like that. -Patiently Krystal blew the soup for her sister, the now-sick Jessica smiled thankfully, “Thanks, Krys…”Krystal smiled at her sister before blowing another spoon of soup for her sister, then she remembered what was her reason to come into her sister’s bedroom, “Anyway Jess, do you know that Hwang Tiffany?”*COUGH COUGH* Krystal quickly got tissue for Jessica who coughed and spilled the soup, “Be careful, Jess, it’s hot…”‘Wait, what’s with my reaction…?’ Jessica scolded herself in her mind.Krystal looked into her older sister’s eyes, said it seriously, “No secret between us, Jess…”“Uh…”“OH MY GOD! SHE WAS THE ONE WHO HELPED YOU FROM WHO, LEETHUG?” Being a drama queen, instantly Krystal overreacted at her own statement, “Omg omg omg, she…SHE IS! YES SHE IS!”Jessica bit her lips, “She’s my seatmate…”“Aah…I see… Your…SEATMATE?! AS IN JESSE’S SEATMATE?!” Jessica covered her ears, Krystal could be really loud at times like this, “Yes, she is, your Oppa’s seatmate…”Krystal was speechless for a while, so Jessica chuckled to break the ice, which was suddenly froze the moment, “Hahaha, fate could be really annoying, right?”Crystal clear, still vivid in Krystal’s mind, the blush that crept onto Jessica’s cheeks when she talked about Hwang Tiffany who fell onto her top that morning…Contemplating to what she would say that moment, “Krys, are you okay?” Biting her lips, still confused with what she had to do, “Jess, no secret between us, right?”“Of course. What’s it?”“Do you like Hwang Tiffany?”“……..What did you mean?”“Jess, no secret between us…”Jessica remembered how Krystal instantly interested in her seatmate, faking a laugh, “Hahaha of course not, she’s so annoying I could die. Lololol.” Jessica could feel her tongue betrayed her, the bitter feeling crept into her heart, she forgot about the cold, her pain from her reddened nose moved into her heart, hammering her heart into pieces when Krystal smiled in relief, “Thank God, I think I like her, Jess.”That was it.Jessica smiled vaguely, even though she was unsure about her feeling, now she decided to not thinking of Tiffany anymore, “Good luck, lil sis.”“Thanks, big sis. Get well soon.” Krystal hugged Jessica once, she smiled so wide, it was been a while since Jessica saw her sister that happy, she smiled too, then Krystal took the tray out and turned off the light in her room.In the darkness Jessica realized how precious something until you couldn’t have it anymore.That night, Jessica couldn’t sleep really well. -*SNEEZE!* Jessica sat on her seat without even sparing her glance towards her seatmate, “Morning, Jesse.” Jessica turned her head a bit, smiled a little then got up, walking outside alone.Tiffany was taken aback by the sudden coldness her seatmate showed, well, they always bickered, but during the days they spent as seatmates, they were actually closer than any other seatmates in the class. Partly because they were always teamed up in everything and partly because they were just automatically got closer.“What’s with that boy?” Tiffany asked in her mind, then she opened her notes again, she added some words on it, inhaled deeply before taking the book for their first period, the bell was going to ring. -Jessica walked into the classroom right behind her Professor, there was no chance for Tiffany to talk to her, and not even once annoying comment Jessica said to her. Usually, Jessica would be really annoying with Pink obsession Tiffany had or just some little mere things that weren’t even important.But this morning, there was none. Even worse, Jessica only talked to Yoona who sat in front of her, or Hara who, as usual, tried her best to get the new Oppa’s attention.“Jesse, can I borrow your eraser?” It was lame, but Tiffany put her eraser into her bag and pretended like she didn’t have one, but Tiffany needed to start a conversation, unfortunately, all Jessica did was just putting the eraser on Tiffany’s desk then continued copying Hara’s notes.Tiffany looked at the eraser blankly, then to Jessica, she studied the feature then she affirmed something, she made a checklist on her notes. -“It’s a nice weather, right Jesse? Compared to yesterday, it was all raining and cloudy…” Tiffany peeked to see Jessica’s reaction, she affirmed something more when Jessica froze a bit before continued sneezing and
