Sister, Back-off From MY MAN

That night Kiaraa had difficulty falling asleep as she kept recollecting the moments, she spent with Song Ji Hun.

Kiaraa made a decision to see her counsellor the next day as all of this was messing with her mind and she is not able to handle her emotions. It felt like she wanted to burst out.

Similarly, on the other side of the city Song Ji Hun was feeling no better.

He was sitting on the bean bag in his room, recollecting the events of today when there was a knock on his room door.

Assuming it to be his mother, Song Ji Hun opened the door looking annoyed but when he saw Yang Nam-il standing there with a huge grin painted on his face, he got surprised.

"Are you not going to welcome me?" Yang Nam-il entered the room and comfortably settled on Ji Hun's big bed.

"You are already in the room" Song Ji Hun calmly said and closed the door.

"What a comfortable bed" Yang Nam-il slept on it, rolling from one corner to another.

"Why are you here?" Song Ji Hun had made no plans of meeting with Yang Nam-il and right now it was too late at night.

They already had dinner and came to room to sleep. 

He wasn't expecting him.

"I came for a night out. Tonight, I am going to sleep here" Yang Nam-il informed him.

"Why suddenly?" Song Ji Hun narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"You need to tell me that. What happened suddenly that Hwan had to beg me on the phone to come here and be with you?" 

Yang Nam-il sat up straight on the bed, his back touching the back rest of the bed.

"This guy, why does he keep meddling in my life?" Song Ji Hun cursed his brother.

"Because he cares and loves his Hyung the most" Yang Nam-il could hear his murmurs.

"Still…"

"Do you want me to leave? If you do, I'll leave" Yang Nam-il was about to step down.

"Please leave" Song Ji Hun pointed at the door.

"Hahaha, I was kidding. I am not going to leave" Yang Nam-il stuck his tongue out, teasing him and comfortably sat back.

Somewhere Song Ji Hun too didn't wish for him to leave.

Song Ji Hun stepped towards the big gallery in his room and sat on one of the bean bags and looked over at the night sky outside.

Understanding his friend's unsaid words, Yang Nam-il followed him outside and sat on another bean bag, next to Ji Hun's.

For a while, there was silence between them, no one uttered a word.

Yang Nam-il was giving time to Song Ji Hun before he is ready to speak while Song Ji Hun was organizing his thoughts.

"I ruined my chances with Kiaraa" Song Ji Hun broke the long silence between them with this one sentence.

Yang Nam-il didn't ask him anything and let Song Ji Hun speak his heart out.

Song Ji Hun then narrated the events of today to his friend to give him the context. 

Yang Nam-il was taken aback knowing this guy almost kissed Kiaraa but he tried to not show it on his face as he didn't wish to make Song Ji Hun more conscious of what happened.

"The first time when I held her hands at that shooting range, I tried my best to not let my focus shift anywhere else. The faint smell of her body messed with me. Her hands were so soft"

Yang Nam-il blushed and wanted to stop Song Ji Hun from talking but this was the first time his friend was being this explicit, so he let him be.

"I didn't wish to let her go but I knew the relationship we share, so I didn't let my mind wander anywhere else. I focussed on the shooting target, hit it and immediately let go of her. Yang Nam-il these hormones suck, I was having all kinds of thoughts that were not appropriate"

'Oh no, is he now going to share all these thoughts' Yang Nam-il got scared but Song Ji Hun knew his boundaries and didn't share them.

"The whole day, I tried my best to not have any perverted thoughts and to an extent I succeeded but since that log flume activity my calm mind again got messed. Seeing her in my clothes was already ruining my inner feelings but then suddenly she started showing concern for me, Nam-il"

Song Ji Hun deeply sighed recollecting those innocent eyes, which were filled with worry towards him.

"I have known Kiaraa for years, she doesn't care about anyone except for a few. At that moment, she cared for me. It didn't feel like she was faking it or was asking about me just out of formality. She did care. I couldn't understand why did she suddenly care?"

Song Ji Hun wondered and looked at Yang Nam-il waiting to hear his opinion.

"Maybe this concern came out of the fact that you are a family friend, her close friend Hwan's brother, or just out of the familiarity you two share"

"I too kept telling myself the same but I felt something else" Song Ji Hun shared something which he was even scared of admitting to himself.

"Ji Hun, you think she likes you?" Yang Nam-il could understand what Ji Hun was trying to imply.

"I know it sounds so stupid. How can she like me within a day? I do know my existence doesn't make any difference to her. So, assuming she too developed something for me is more of a wishful thinking from my end, but I swear Nam-il I felt something mutual"

"Is that why you think she gave you her consent when you tried to kiss her?"

"I am not sure what happened at that moment but I felt like even she wanted it, that was why my body gave up and I made a move on her"

That moment was clearly painted in his mind, he could recollect her expressions, her face, her lips in detail.

"Are you sure she too wanted it?" Yang Nam-il again asked him for confirmation.
