Chapter 12: Confrontation (1/1)

The next morning, Krystal woke up with a bad headache after all the drinks she drank last night."Auuuggghh." She sat up from the bed, her bed specifically. She doesn't know how she even get in her room. But she tries herself to remember wht actually happen last night. If she did something she shouldn't do, like, umm.. kissing or maybe having s*x.Having that thought she immediately checks herself and sighed in relief that she is fully dressed and same clothing she had last night.She saw a letter on her side table, and seeing the hand writing its definitely from Moonbyul.'Good morning (or afternoon) Soojung-ah, there some foods and medicine at the kitchen. Make sure you eat!P. S. I already prepared it so both of you won't risk my beloved apartment burned even before I go home.MB.'Krystal checks the time and its already 2:30 in the afternoon. I really sleep that long. She thought. Because of this, there's no reason for her to attend her class since it will be finish by an hour. Then she remembers she's not the only person here.Krystal go to the kitchen after she made herself decent, at least. And right after, she saw a brunette drinking a glass of water. After she saw this, she made a conclusion that she and that Unnie is in the situation with her.They do their own things, without interfering each other's businesses. Until one of them speaks and the other just choked with actually nothing."So, do you like Moonbyul?" Solar said with confidence that caught Krystal off guard but remain her expressionless face intact. How did- Am I too-. Then she remebered last night."Moon Byul Yi, I like you" Exact phrase coming out from her mouth and remebered it clearly as the clearest water in Earth."What if I am? Do you like her, Unnie?" Krystal mischievously said.Then the table has turned, Solar is now in state of shock and the other one stays the same but with a smirk in her face."W-whaa- Aiiissshh" Not able to reply to the other girl Solar just avoid the younger girl's stare, because she knows that she lose this round."So you do, but you know that I don't gave up, especially to the things and peaople I really want and love." Krystal said with so much passion. Passion to get and make Moonbyul fall in love to her."Oh my little dongsaeng, I think this will be your first time." Solar said woth equal determination in her eyes.And the batlle has officially announced.--------------------------------------Moonbyul went home right after her last class. The thought of Solar and Krystal in her apartment by themselves, scares the hell out of her.Arriving to her apartment with the lights turned off, the tall girl assumed that her two friends went out to somewhere else.Contacting first her bestfriend, which the other person didn't pick up. Moonbyul gave up after the 3rd time she tried to call the older girl.Moonbyul ploped herself down in the sofa and just let her mind do the things on its own. Remembering the happenings last night, for instance Krystal's confession. She's 100% sure that its Krystal's voice. But since when? She knows that they're pretty close when they were little but currently, especially when Moonbyul moved to Korea and left Krystal behind in America, they barely talked, not even in call or messages. She didn't even how to react or even say when Krystal will talk to her about her feelings.Sure, she knows after that confession, it made her nervous, and blushed that time. Because it is 100% different than her previous confession coming from her fangirls and boys. Because first of all, Krystal is not just an ordinary girl but a girl who protected her from the bullies ever since they got in kindergarten. And she still remember that even now.On the other hand, Krystal is drunk that time."Uuuggghh! Jung Krystal! What have you done to me?!"  Moonbyul frustratedly said and shocked when someone actually replied to her."Did you call me, Unnie? Why?" "S-since when did you get here?" She said after composing herself after the shock."Umm, I just got here. And I heard you call me, and I'm asking you why did you call me." Krystal straighly replied to her Unnie."A-aahh hahaahaha, n-no I didn't hahahaha. Do you want something to eat? I-im pretty hungry right now. Let's eat outside." Moonbyul akwardly said, trying to hide the embarrassment she did."Ooookkaaaayyy." Without knowing what the actual heck happened, Krystal just agreed and thinking, maybe this is the right time.The two went to the nearest restaurant in their compound since they are lazy to walk right now. The dinner went as usual, chatting, eating, laughing, an ordinary dinner in a ordinary restaurant, ordering ordinart foods. And with these, their night past normally than Moonbyul expected should be.After having their dinner, the two make their own way to the park that is almost beside the restaurant. They let themselves enveloped in cool breaze and comfortable silence."Unnie, I-i want to say something." Unlike the 'ice princess' image. Krystal is now nervous and stuttering with her words just now and it is completely notice by the older girl.Knowing what will the younger girl say, or that what she thinks, she cutted her and said."Hey, its okay, I know you were just drunk that time. You don't have to explain anything." In conclusion, Moonbyul thinks that it is just a drunk-talk and the younger just accidentally blurted it, which gained a hurt and disappointed look from the younger girl."Do you really think that I didn't mean it?" Krystal said with low voice but Moonbyul hear the firmness of her voice. The younger girl doesn't want to sound rude but she is totally pissed off right now. "Am I that insincere? For you to think that?" Krystal continued but she knows that her voice will crack any time now which noticed by the older girl."Soojung-ah.""If that's the reason, Moon Byul Yi! I like - no I love you. Even when we were children, I have a crush on you. But the time you leave me in America and we barely talked that time, I am so lost. I missed you. Until now." Krystal said so softly  that made Moonbyul's heart melted and at the same time beat so fast because of the sudden confession of the girl in front of her. She doesn't know what to say, she's too speechless right now.Moonbyul is in dilemma right now. She's sure of it. Her thoughts was cutted off when Krystal decides to continue."You dan't have to say anything Unnie, I just want you to know my feelings. I think you don't have the same feelings yet. And this time, I will make sure of that. Take note of that Moon Byul Yi." Krystal said with determination, looking straight at Moonbyul's eyes which examined by the other girl. And Moonbyul thinks that she saw in Krystal's orbs, a tint of disappointment. Moonbyul smiled sincerely at her and hug the latter after. I'm sorry Soojung-ah, I am so confused right now. She thought while hugging the girl tightly which returned also by the latter."Byulie-ah, let's have a date." Krystal said after they broke the hug."I didn't know that it will be this early." Moonbyul said in disbelief but gained a glare from the Jung."Is that a yes or a no?""Do I have a choice?" Moonbyul playfully asked. Maybe this date will clear my mind"No, you don't." Krystal smile in victory alongside with Moonbyul who just giggle because of Krustal's childish action.--------------------------------------------------Early in the morning on the next day, Moonbyul wakes up because of her cellphone ringing."Hello?" Moonbyul reached and answered her phone in laziness."Dear sister! Did I wake you up? I'm sorry." Its Minhyuk Oppa."What do you want, Oppa?""You. I want you to come in my office, right now. Its a bit of emergency." Minhyuk seriously said and it made Moo byul get herself ready and go to her brother's office."Have you decided?" The question that welcomed Moonbyul when she enter the room."About what?""About the engagement of you and Krystal perhaps? Well duh, what do you else think it is?" Minhyuk said with a matter of fact. And that hits Moonbyul she actually forgot about the engagement."N-not yet." Moonbyul hesistantly replied."Why do you asked, Oppa? Is our business in danger right now?" Moonbyul joked but when she saw her brother's serious expression, she stopped."Not ours." With that, Minhyuk handed a paper to her sister which carefully read by her."Jung Enterprises income decrease dramatically this year." A sentence that stamped in Moonbyul's mind. Seeing her clueless sister, Minhyuk explains everything."As you read the document, Uncle Jung's business is in danger right now. Although they're doing their best to regain their position, it is not enough." Getting what Minhyuk is pointing at, Moonbyul cutted him off."And the engagement is one of the things that will help them? Is that it?""Yes, it is. I know it is a hard decision for both of you. But we need your decision as sson as possible.""Oppa." Moonbyul feels so helpless right now. There are so many happenings in her mind right now and she can't think straight."Byul-ah I'm sorry to put you in thins kind of decision. When you accept it, we can still make an agreement about your engagement, but if not, we respect your decision. And I think Krystal doesn't want you to know about this because she doesn't want to push you to the things you don't want."Metioning the girls name, Moonbyul knows that her decision will make or break the younger girl. And the last thing she want to see is hurting and crying Krystal because of her. Another variable in making her decision is knowing that the latter is in love with her."Oppa, what should I do?""Do what you think is right."Is it about not hurting someone? Is it about yourself? Is it about helping others? But what do you actually mean by the word right?-------------------------------------Update!! Whoo finally.
