FRIENDSHIP PRIVILEGY (1/2)

The city of Seoul was getting dark quickly, and at dusk, it brought fear and nervousness. The trees on both sides of the houses shaded the children walking along the street. The wind, walking around the city, tickled my nerves, disturbed the inhabitants with their taps on the windows. Lanterns illuminated the driveway, the path to the cafe "Bristol".

The evening existed so that the residents of the city returned home after long-term work in offices, in stuffy rooms. They went outside, breathing in the fresh evening air, and came to life again. Who drove home by car, slowly leaving the roadway, carefully looking around, because at such a time pedestrians could safely walk along the highway?

It was a time of calm and serenity. When the city freezes with a premonition of something magical, incredible and sinister.

The dark shadow that followed the girl who had recently moved to the city looked out of the corner, making sure that no one was seeing him, slipped into the alley. The back door, as was agreed, was open, and the shadow quietly slipped inside the Bristol cafe. She waved a hand at someone, as a sign of greeting, went into the hall, sat down at a free table, a view that opened all the rooms.

As it should be, at 18:00 pm Nayeon entered the cafe, looked around, not noticing a familiar face, and sat opposite the door. It was cozy and warm. An emotional company with a cup of coffee and crispy cookies gave a feeling of not loneliness. The cafe was almost full of students who studied, prepared for the upcoming day. Nayeon waved back several of her friends, asked the waiter for another cup of coffee. Near the bar, she noticed a familiar sweater. Looking closely, she was convinced of the correctness of her judgment. Yes, there, with their heads bowed over textbooks, four girls sat. You would have thought that they were chasing her, but Nayeon did not think so. She already knew that the cafe is popular among young people. Here are all the creams of Seoul youth. Here they hang out, go on dates, chat, arrange an upcoming party, and just have a good time.

Here in the first place, he led the father Nayeon whole family.

Here, Nayeon and her brother found out that once in this cafe, dad made offers to mom.

Now, she is waiting for the one that will soon please her with her answer.

They sat in the same sports-looking car, a dark blue red-striped racecar. A young man cut off under a hat, a brunette, brown eye, who inextricably followed by a cafe. The girl sitting in the front seat flipped through the dossier, reading to herself everything that he had learned about the past of Im Nayeon. Her thin fingers fluttered through the pages, reading each syllable.

“The way Nayeon said it.”

-Did you already know? When? - Jimin asked dispersedly, drowning out a feeling of jealousy. He never liked that someone knew about something earlier than he did.

“I certainly didn't know what she meant when she warned me.” She knew what you would look for about her.

“What will you answer her?” - Jimin muffled the music in the radio station so that such a trifle as a sound would not interfere with enjoying her voice. He was in love with her, although he knew that he meant nothing to her. And he infuriated the way she acted with him.

- I will go. She is waiting for me.

“What will you answer her?!” He insisted, he needed to know everything that would happen next. Recently, Mina has become secretive, maybe she no longer trusts him. Or someone else appeared.

- Do not wait for me, Jimin - waved a persistence Mina.

“But who then escorts you?” - The person reached for the girl, trying to kiss her, but Mina, pulled away from him, dodged. To her surprise, she was disgusted with his lips, although she had not noticed such an analogy before.

- If everything works out as I want, I will not leave the cafe alone. - Mina straightened her hair behind her back, opened the door of the car, and went out. Already the usual knock of a cane, a wary state when crossing the road. What she found out about Nayeon’s past made her even more puzzled. And she did not change her decision.

She was well trained in a boarding school for the blind, where she spent the last two years. The first days were not easy, she was afraid of every noise and scream. But after training, she began to be given complex things, she began to recognize emotions by her voice, see the blurry outlines of shadows. The mask kept so many secrets, feelings, experiences. Not much, a snap from the secret world, she opened Jimin. She could not open completely; expose her soul, because she still did not fully trust him.

Yes, she liked his affection, his arms, and his appeal to her, like any other person. However, she used it for her own purposes. She knew that as soon as the game was over, he would leave him.

The time on the wall clock that hung above the entrance showed 18.25, when the bell announced that the new visitor had just entered the cafe. At the sound, all heads turned on command, half of the visitors turned away, they were not friends with her, and the other half, consisting of four and Nayeon continued to look at the walking girl. Nayeon picked up and by making three broad steps was next to a charming girl. She was breathtaking from such a dress, the new collection of Christian Dior, a satin dark blue dress, reaching to her knees, freely wrapped around her slim body. Black patent leather shoes, clasps like snakes, twisted on the leg. Her entire outfit completed with earrings and cherry-colored lipstick.

-Mina, - Nayeon breathed, touching her hand lightly. - Hello.

- I'm late? - Pleased with the impression made of the girl, Mina allowed her to hold at a busy table.

- I stopped waiting for you when I saw a car parked on the other side of the road, opposite the cafe. What do you need to order? “Calling the waitress,” Nayeon asked.

- Coffee and cakes. I didn’t take long - sitting down, hanging the cloak on the back of the chair and laying the bag on the table.

Black glasses looked silly at a time when the evening sank into the city. But for her they were natural, as yet another dress. The subject of outerwear. Nayeon could not resist and ran her knuckles through her hair, straightening the knocked-out black curl over her ear. Her skin was so soft and warm that her fingers did not want to leave such a desirable place. Yet, with difficulty, Nayeon pushed them aside, sighing quietly. Mina just smiled back.

To tease the girl, Mina put her hands on the table, at a close distance from Nayeon's hands. Nayeon took advantage of the situation, and her little finger of her right hand touched her fingers. An electric discharge ran through the veins and pricked right into the heart. Both girls.

There were many people around, but silence reigned at their table. Pleasant silence. The waiter put on the table two cups of coffee and a plate with pastries and a slice of apple pie. Having said, bon appetite, withdrew.

- How was your day? Nayeon broke the silence, taking a sip of a hot drink and biting off an apple pie. - Mm, delicious. I haven’t eaten such a delicious pie for a long time. Want to try?

- Not. I don’t like apples - crumbs formed from the bitten cake in the corners of the lips, she licked them so seductively that Nayeon almost fell off the chair. First threw into a fever, then into a chill. - What?

“I really want to do one thing with you now. In addition, I suspect that after her, I will receive a slap in the face and a denial of friendship, Nayeon whispered passionately, carefully watching the girl's expression.

- Do you want to kiss me? Yes, I know who you are. You are a lesbian - the color of embarrassment reflected on the cheeks.

-I would prefer a different word. In my life, I only wanted two girls. Only one of them wanted more than ever. It's you, Mina.

-I heard you talked to Tzuyu. How do you like her? - Skillfully deduced on another topic, avoiding the one that embarrassed and nervous.

- Sweet. Very nice. You know, one of my friends would say, seeing her: "You, very sweet, Tzuyu." And at the same time, she would hide all the emotions that really would be reflected in her eyes.

“What would she say about me?” - Curious Mina, biting off another piece of cake. She just felt the gaze vibrating in the room. Mina always liked the increased attention to her person. But not now.

“You are very similar to her.” Characters. Strong, domineering woman. You also love to manipulate people like dolls. I bet that before, when you shot your eyes and everyone fell at your feet. I wonder if you remained the same bitch that you were, or have you changed?

She knows. Knows about that evening? However, how? I thought it buried in the past, in a very deep pit. Did she really know about that Halloween? About my first meeting with Momo.

“You know, your face is like an open book.” Not. I have not yet learned everything about that evening. But it is a matter of time. Don’t worry, your secrets will die with me.

“Why do you need to know about him?” That Halloween night was unremarkable. - Mina bit her lip, her fingers intertwined in the plexus. She knows. She knows for sure.

- Not, true. He is special. He is the same part of the past as the unfortunate incident that happened to you in the barn. Instead of you, your stepbrother, Toby, should have been there.

- Enough. This is not your business, my past. Stop poking your nose out of your business! - Mina did not like the conversation that Nayeon started. She would like to get up and leave, but the girl held her in place, putting her hand on her hand.

- We will be friends, Mina, and all your secrets will die with me - a threat sounded in her serious tone and Mina understood that she would come true.

“And yet I do not understand why I should be friends with you - after some thought, the girl returned to the conversation that had begun.”

- Yes, come on Mina, stop breaking the comedy. I know that you have already agreed. You want to be my girlfriend. You know, your farewell to Jimin in the car is the best proof for me. The poor person, first seduced, and then gave a lapel twist - Nayeon laughed. Her laugh sounded like a sip of fresh coffee. All the threat that lurked in her previous words melted away like fog on the horizon.

“You saw me through. How long have you realized that I play? Mina admitted, smiling back. This smile not strained; she sparkled, as if in her inner world someone had lit a light.

- Immediately. My eye is set on you. Everything about you. As I said, today, "I want you." Until I get you, I will obey any of your whims. Only I have a fee. Since I am a greedy person, I need goodies. Moreover, for each errand a special treat.

- What kind? - Mina immediately thought about the money, how much Nayeon will require and how much she can pay. However, knowing that Nayeon is wandering around her, one can also assume something more unusual, such as...

- 1. A kiss. 2. Date. 3. Overnight in your house, in one bedroom. How and what you spend them on, think for yourself.
