Chapter 46:

Your POV

Inside Building

"Minho!" SHINee's manager is not in a good mood.

"Hyung, mianhe,"

"Minho, Do you know who else might spot you?! You want this to become a big issue?"

"Hyung, I said I'm sorry. Look, I don't care, I don't care what happens to me, but I can't stand seeing my brothers and Chaerin getting hurt. They need me and I need them too,"

"So, you want this rumor to become true?"

"Why can't?! Can't an artist have a normal life too? We are just doing our job.Why do they need to question it? I know fans are the reason for our popularity but saying that we shouldn't have a relationship is too personal!"

SHINee's manager looked at Minho and ruffled his own hair after staring at Minho.

Onew was standing quietly beside Minho.

Taemin, Jonhyun and Key were frozen in their seat.

"Okay, Minho. I know how you feel but let's settle this ok.It's up to you if you wanted it to be revealed to the reporters or not but think wisely before you take you action. We are having a conference talk next week,"

Minho kept quiet and so were the others.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was already night. I decided to walk back home even though they insist on sending me home.

I took a deep breath and it turn out to be a sigh.

All this problems.

Onew being hurt about his parents.

Minho's past relationship must be haunting him now.

Soojin must be going nuts by now.

All because of....

ARGH!

My life is going to be what?

When I looked in front, I was already at my house doorstep.

Oh! Time just fly.

I had the house Key so I unlocked the door and went in instead of typing the password.

The sound of the television can be heard.

Dad must be home.

Ilhan was there too.

I felt uneasy to face them.

So, without any word, I went straight to my room door.

"Chaerin," It was dad's voice.

My stomach rolled.

"Yes, appa," I looked at him.

"Come here," He was sitting in front of the tv.

Ilhan was just looking at me.

"So when is your graduation day coming?"

Graduation?

Oh, graduation!

"Er...I think it's by the end of this month dad,"

"Have to decided where and what are you going to pursue?"

His voice sounds different. Not the normal voice he used to talk to me.

Then I saw something in front of the coffee table. A few papers with pictures and an torn envelope.

Oh, God.

Him too.

NO!

I swallowed my saliva that was stuck in my throat.

"I want you to go to Paris after your graduation to pursue your fashion design dream,"

"Appa?"

"I'm giving you time to think,"

"Appa!"

Suddenly he was out of rage.

"I don't want my daughter to be an eyes of some crazy papparazi, being all over the internet, running around catching public's attention!! I don't want any of this!" He took the papers and pictures which was on the table and gave to me.

When I looked at it.

A big waves of shock went through me like a splash.

It was picture of me hugging Onew.

Me running after him.

Me standing beside him.

The other pictures of me and Minho.

Then the papers, it was the article that I saw this morning.The article that moved all the members of SHINee and me.

Then there was another paper.

A new one.

Title:Same girl, now after SHINee's Onew?

Rumors has been told that SHINee's Minho is in a relationship

with a unknown girl.

Pictures had proved that the same girl is after SHINee's Leader Onew?

What's going on?

Ya! WHAT IS GOING ON?!

I couldn't breath.

Soojin!

She still haven't learn her lesson

"Dad! But.." He wasn't already gone to his room.

"Ilhan,how did he get this?"

"It was already at our house door when he came in," he told.

I feel like crushing it and burning this stuff into ashes!

* " I want you to go to Paris after your graduation to pursue your fashion design dream," *

I closed my eyes for a while and took a deep breath.

"Noona, is Jinki hyung alright?"

I couldn't answer him.

I turn to open my room door and Ilhan said something.

"You know that Jinki hyung likes you right?" His voice was serious.

My hand tremble to turn open the door knob.

I looked at Ilhan for one last time and went in.

I close the door and out the papers on my desk and then threw myself on the bed.

Oh, I'm so TIRED.

* "You that Jinki hyung likes you right?" *

What did he say?

How could he possibly like me?

Does he?

Could he liking me besides knowing that I love Minho?

* "....and I don't want you to get hurt physically or emotionally. I can't stand seeing you struggling," *

The time where he waited for me after my first day of class.

When he invited me out for dinner after school.

Could I have been blind?

Was I?

How come I didn't realize.

The time when he hugged me at the beach. Was he comforting me or was I comforting him?

The face he had when he saw me looking at his tears.

How come I didn't realise?!

Was he giving me signs?

Oh, Jinki oppa....

I turn to my left, I turn to my right.

Jinki. Onew.

The time where he saved me from that creepy stranger.

The time where he said he will take care of his sister. it was because of me.

He was always there. Being good and cared.

So the weird feeling I had towards him, could it be love?

Then, Minho.

I love him. The guys that stole my heart by his stare.

Oh! ARgh!

My head.

I think, I think too much.

I got to rest.

NO!

I cant'.

Dad.

He wants me to go to Paris!

But .....I ..can't...I will be leaving Minho

and Onew and my only friend Min...

* "I don't want my daughter to be an eyes of some crazy papparazi, being all over the internet, running around catching public's attention!! I don't want any of this!" *

* "I'm giving you time to think," *

Am I really causing them trouble? Am I?

Minho. He is a celebrity. Loved by many fans. Could I be ruining his image.

They were popular when they debuted.

They caught many fans attention and this stupid article ruined it all!

Everything he had.

And Onew. He was a great leader and also loved my many fans for his dorkiness. The pictures. First it was me and Minho and NOW me and Onew!

This is not being settle but getting WORSE!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

School

Min message me to meet her at the school entrance early.

But I had no face to go to school.

I bet all those face eyes will be on me.

All the SHINee's members wouldn't be going to school until this case is settled.

I saw Min waiting for me under a tree near the school entrance.

When she saw me coming, her eyes went wide.

"Chaerin! Oh!" she hugged me.

"Min!"

"Chaerin! I can't believe this is happening to you,"

"Min, I'll be fine. Come on, I got to tell you something," I decided to tell her everything.

About Soojin.

About Minho's past relationship.

And what happened yesterday.

All the time her eyes were wide and mouth opened in shock.

"Oh, my god! That evil devil!"

"And my dad wants me to go to Paris after graduation. He already made his decision. he gave me time to think,"

"Chaerin,are you really going to do what your dad say?"

"I don't know. I know, Min. I'm confused,"

I didn't tell her about what Ilhan told me about Onew though.

"Oh, Chaerin," she hugged me again. I've been comforting others but I too need someone to comfort me.

And I 'm scared.

We came out of the comfort room.

Min bid goodbye and went to her class.

I was walking alone to my class.

Should I go in? Or should I not?

I know people will be staring and whispering about me.

Oh! Chaerin! Just go!

I took my step into my class.

As I expected girls started whispering quietly.

I wasn't looking at anybody and went straight to my desk.

A girl in my class came towards my desk with a rude face on her.

"Ya!Who do you think you are? Uh?" She hit my table.

Then she poured water on me.

For a second I was frozen by what she just did but the next second, I don't know what got into me.

I pulled her shirt and pushed her.

"Ya! who do you think you are? Mind your own business!"

"Ya! You were the only reason my my SHINee oppa are in trouble! You are causing them trouble. Do you know that?!" Another girl bumped in.

I bit my teeth.

Calm down Chaerin!

I know something like this would happen.

I took my bag and stood up.

Before I get out the class, I step hard on the girl's feet who poured water on me.

"Ah! OUCH!" she whined.

"Boo!" the whole class booed me.

I ran away from my class.

I need to be alone.

Then, I went into the toilet and locked myself in one of the cubicle and sat on the bowl.

My palm was on my face ans tears formed from my eyes.

Oh. Chaerin.

You can't keep on like this!

I cried, cried and cried until no more tears came out.

I spend two hours in the toilet.

When I came out of my school, I received a message from Minho.

From : Love,

Chaerin-ah. How are you? Are you going to school? Manager hyung had cancelled all our schedules for this week. He decided to have a press conference this Saturday.You will be coming. I need you there. I 'm gonna reveal something that can shut them up. SHINee's repackaged album is postponed to next month. I need you. Hope you are alright.

Miss you.

Oh! Minho! I miss you too.

You don't know how much I need you now.

I really do need him.

Minho.

But I'm causing him trouble.

So much!
