Sister, Back-off From MY MAN

Few days later

"Ahhh, why am I friends with this Ian?" Kiaraa frustratedly said the same thing for the umpteenth time.

"Kiaraa, this play will only last for two hours, stop acting like you have to sit through this play for the whole day" Song Ji Hwan was annoyed hearing her complaining about attending this play since morning.

"I hate this play" Kiaraa again complained sitting next to Song Ji Hwan as they took their seats in the school's auditorium.

It was their annual celebration at the school. 

Every year this celebration happens where the students and the faculty put up a show on the stage. 

It is a four-days event, where putting up a play is an event for day-two.

The parents too were here but they were sitting in a separate section.

"Kiaraa, if you hate attending this play so much, why did you even bother to come?" Song Ji Hwan was done hearing her nagging and got irritated by her.

Hwan loves watching movies and plays, so he was excited to see this play, especially because his close friend Ian would be playing the role of the Romeo.

If his elder brother would have accepted this role and played it, then Ji Hwan's happiness would have had no bounds but since that is not happening, he at least wants to be happy seeing Ian.

"Ian forced me to come here" Kiaraa pouted holding the tub of popcorn.

"Then please at least for his sake, watch this play and enjoy" Song Ji Hwan requested her.

Kiaraa sulked and kept quiet.

The next second, one boy suddenly came there and sat on the empty seat next to Kiaraa. She was now sitting between this boy and Song Ji Hwan.

In five minutes, the play was supposed to start so all the lights in the auditorium were turned off.

The play started and there was complete silence in the room, as everyone paid their complete attention.

The play began with the narration informing them of the long family feud between Romeo and Juliet.

Kiaraa rolled her eyes and muttered, "What a silly reason to have a feud. The feud exists only to make the story interesting"

Song Ji Hwan leaned closer to her and requested, "Kiaraa, Romeo and Juliet is a classic love story, please don't ruin it for me"

"Why is it even a classic? Both lovers die at the end. It seems like a rule that only tragical stories end up being classics" she again muttered.

"I am done" Song Ji Hwan declared and carefully left from there without disturbing the audience seated behind them.

He therefore didn't notice the guy, who was sitting next to Kiaraa.

"Ji Hwan, don't go, Ji Hwan" Kiaraa begged him in a whisper but he left as he wished to peacefully enjoy this play.

Luckily for him, he found a seat in the row ahead and sat there.

Kiaraa couldn't see him clearly in the darkness and lost him, therefore she couldn't follow Hwan.

"Ahhh how will I survive this boring play now?" she again muttered as she has a habit of demeaning every movie she is watching, finding the loopholes in them as that gives her more pleasure.

Now she didn't have a listener to hear her opinions, making this boring experience even more boring for her.

Ian, handsomely dressed as Romeo, just walked on the stage as this was his introduction scene. 

His friends in the audience cheered for him but Ian remained professional, unshaken by the applaud he got.

The current scene on the stage was of a party where he sees Juliet for the first time where he falls head over heels in love with her.

"Love at first sight, what an overrated concept" The boy next to Kiaraa commented successfully capturing her attention.

Kiaraa excitedly turned to her right as that was the exact thought she had in her mind when the scene on the stage shifted to that of Ian and the girl playing Juliet's eyes met.

At the exact moment, when Romeo and Juliet's eyes met on the stage, off the stage Kiaraa and Song Ji Hun's eyes met.

It wasn't an understatement to say she was shocked.

Although she knew this guy since the day she was born, she barely talked to him all these years.

This was the first time, Song Ji Hun used so many words to interact with her.

Song Ji Hun waited for her to say something after what he said but she kept looking at him as if she was looking at an alien.

'Is me talking to her that weird?' he wondered.

"Sorry, if I disturbed you" He was not sure what else to say.

Kiaraa came out of her daze hearing more words from him and smiled brightly, she turned back to the play and said, "Love at first sight is indeed an overrated concept. How can one love someone without even knowing anything about them?" she added.

Song Ji Hun smiled in victory as his purpose was fulfilled and he got her talking.

"It is most probably lust at first sight" He leaned closer and whispered in her ears.

"Lust?" Kiaraa cluelessly looked at him as she was still not completely aware of the concept called lust.

Song Ji Hun wanted to smack himself, she was an eleven-year-old and he was discussing lust with her.

"Don't bother" he replied ashamed of himself.

The two then looked back at the play.

On stage, a romantic sequence was playing where Romeo and Juliet were developing feelings for one another at a party.

"Why do people like being romantic? Isn't it so annoying?" Kiaraa complained to Song Ji Hun.

"Hmm, even if you are romantic, why do you have to be romantic in public? Please, get a room." He added agreeing with her as he had similar opinion.

"They romance in public to show off how amazing and cool their lives are" Kiaraa muttered in a whisper but Song Ji Hun could clearly hear her.

The two people were mindful of other people in the audience, so they only whispered to one another.
