Yun Ho frowned as he sat in his mother’s arms deep in thought. Then his face brightened, “So I’ll get a new friend to play with? I won’t be so lonely whenever you and Appa go out?” His mother chuckled. “Maybe dear.”
Yun Ho pumped his fists in the air. “Assa!” His mother gently stroked the hair of her beloved 4-year-old. “Good for you!”

-YUNHO’S POV-
I groaned as I heard the stupid alarm clock ring. “Urgh…” I tried to reach for it but unfortunately failed as it was on the other end of my bedside table, on the other side of my bed. I rolled over and patted my hand frantically on the table, attempting to switch the damned thing off to get a bit more sleep. I rolled some more till, “Ah!” I rubbed my butt which landed quite hard on the floor.
“Aish…” I sat there, not wanting to get out of the mess of my blanket and pillows. It was rather comfortable. I straightened out the mess and tried to lie down, trying to get some sleep until,
“JUNG YUNHO! GET DOWN HERE! YOU’RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR WORK! IT’S ALREADY 9 AND YOU’RE STILL SLEEPING!?” I heard my mother’s voice echo throughout the entire house. My eyes shot open as I sat up, “WHY DIDN’T YOU WAKE ME UP EARLIER?!” I frantically pulled off the blankets I was stuck in and threw them on the bed. I have two blankets by the way.
I threw off my shirt as I stepped into the bathroom, brushing my teeth with so much force I thought my gums would break. “Where did that nice Umma nineteen years ago go to…” I mumbled to myself as I stumbled out of the bathroom. I yanked open my wardrobe as I searched around for my work uniform. I found it. Under a stack of other clothes. “Fuck it’s wrinkled!” I swore. Working in a 5 star hotel required quite a lot of attention when it came to attire.
I hurriedly threw it on. Being late was worse than having a creased uniform. I ran down the stairs and nearly fell when I overshot the distance while trying to turn into the kitchen. “Morning Umma!” I said as I gave him a kiss on the cheek. He shoved a lunchbox into my hands. “Since you have no time to eat, I packed lunch for you! Now go. You have 15 minutes!” I nodded as I dashed out of the house. “Bye Umma!”
I slipped on my shoes as I ran as fast as I could towards the bus stop. I glanced at my watch which read 9.15. “Crap I’m so going to be late!” I said to myself as I saw the bus pull up from a distance. I sprinted all the way there which was approximately a hundred metres. “Wait! Don’t leave yet!” I shouted when I saw the bus drive away.
I collapsed onto the seat at the bus stop. “I just arrive and the bus leaves? Can’t it wait for another 2 seconds!? AISH!” I ruffled up my hair. All hope is lost… I thought. Until I saw the bus slow down to a halt and its doors opened. I immediately rose to my feet and ran to the bus and up the steps, earning weird stares from the other passengers.
“Looks like someone is going to be late for work today huh?” That voice. I turned around as my eyes lit up. “Jae Joong! You saved me didn’t you?” He smiled and nodded. “You owe me one!”
Kim Jae Joong.
The love of my life. I’ve loved him ever since we were kids, teenagers. So it’s been around 10 years now. We’re best friends and he treats me like one. But I feel much more for him. The feelings I have for him are more like that of a lover. His luscious black hair, brown piercing eyes, small petite nose, red plump lips and his milky white skin. He could pass off as a girl any day.
It’s not his looks that caused me to fall in love with him. I guess we just have chemistry. We trust each other fully, telling our deepest darkest secrets. Okay fine maybe I’m hiding the secret that I’m in love with him but other than that, everything has been told. The way he looks at me, talks to me, smiles at me, laughs with me, all these things just cause me to fall deeper in love with him. Like a massive black hole of love continuously sucking me in.
“..Ho ..Yun.. Jung Yun Ho!”
I snapped out of my thoughts as I saw Jae Joong looking at me worriedly. “Are you okay? You’re spacing out. Do you have a fever?” He placed his hand on my forehead as he compared his body temperature to mine. I froze at his touch. He let go and I breathed again as he smiled, “You’re fine. You look like you have something on your mind. What is it?” I feigned ignorance as I stuttered, “N… Nothing Jae Joong.”
He frowned as he crossed his arms, “Do I look stupid to you? I know something’s wrong Yun Ho. We’re best friends. I know you inside out.” I sighed. He had a point there. I cooked something out and forced it out of my mouth, “I’m worried that I’ll be late for my job. You know how strict my boss is.” I said as I fidgeted with my hands, hoping he wouldn’t notice my nervousness. He knitted his eyebrows together for a moment, as if he wasn’t fully convinced but let it go.
“I see. Well, you do have a lot of female waitresses who will stand up for you!” He said, smiling. “You didn’t find any girl there yet right?”
His statement shook me as I felt my heart sink. This is one of the many side effects when you don’t tell your best friend that you love him.
“No.” I plastered a fake smile onto my face as I shook my head.
He laughed. “Good luck Yun Ho!”
He punched my arm playfully. I stumbled backwards slightly and laughed along.
Suddenly, the bus screeched to a halt. Luckily, my back was already against the wall after Jae Joong’s punch but he wasn’t stable as he rocked back and forth. He accidentally tripped on one of the passenger’s foot as he stumbled forwards backwards. I widened my eyes as I reached forward to secure him with my arms to prevent him from falling and causing a domino effect. I caught his arched back as I stared into his eyes. He stared back and I could feel his body tense up.
I could feel the stares of the other people in the bus and Jae Joong probably felt it as well. I regained his balance and pushed himself out of my arms. “Thanks.” He said, as if that was nothing to him. I felt my heart sink again, “No problem.”
I recognized the familiar roads as I caught glimpse of the hotel I worked in coming nearer and nearer. I pressed the ‘Bus Stop’ button and smiled at Jae Joong,
“Looks like I won’ be late after all huh Boo?”
He blushed. Bulls eye. He hated that nickname.
“Call me that one more time and I’ll care you Yunnie or Yunniebun or Yun Yun or even worse, Yun darling in front of Chang Min and Jun Su.” He threatened, but all I did was laugh. “That’s be quite nice! It’ll be as if those are pet names for a married couple!”
I knew he took it as a joke when I saw his amused face but I meant it. ‘I guess he’ll just never know my feelings huh…” I thought to myself as I felt the bus coming to a much gentler stop.
The doors opened as I stepped out, “Bye Boo!” I chuckled when I saw his fuming face. ‘Don’t call me that!” I laughed as I raced towards the doors of the hotel. The Cartel. 5 stars, known for it’s delicious food and gorgeous staff. I guess I was one of them, I flattered myself. I ran past the reception desk while shouting, “Morning!” To the staff there. They gave me a smile and replied but I was already long gone. I looked at my watch again 9.28. I have 2 more minutes. “Yun Ho hwaiting!”
I tapped my feet impatiently on the lift as I waited for the lift to reach the 50th storey.
46, 47, 48, 49…
\I clicked my tongue as I anticipated the coming number.
50.
“HUZZAH!” I shouted to myself as I rushed out of the doors of the lift and dashed towards the kitchen. 9.29.
One more minute Jung Yun Ho. Hurry up! I heard a voice scream inside my head. “Huh..? Isn’t that Jae Joong’s voice?” I muttered under my breath. I kicked the door open and I heard everyone in the kitchen applaud. “Wonderful timing Yun Ho! Exactly 9.30!” I smiled when I heard my Hyung, Lee Teuk say. “Yeah! I bet you were gallivanting with some random girl before you came here.” Kang In, his lover said. I threw him a glare before saying, “Thanks Kang In!” Lee Teuk patted me on the back, “There are going to be a lot of customers today!” I cocked my head to one side, “Why?”
Kang In sighed, “Boss’ birthday!”
I mouthed an “O” before nodding my head. “Good luck Yun Ho!” I swirled around and faced them, “Huh?” Kang In put his arm around Lee Teuk as he smiled sheepishly. “We have a date tonight so you’ll be alone with the girls!” I glared at them while I tried to calm myself down.
“You are dumping me, to go on a date, and leave me here, with, these crazy girls?!” I yelled, pointing to the waitresses behind me who were either squealing, screaming or giggling. Lee Teuk looked nervously at me, “Mianhae-yo Yun Ho…” Then he dashed out of the kitchen while dragging Kang In along with him to serve the current customers. “Yah! You!” I pointed my finger accusingly at them but they were already gone. I sighed as I turned around, “Let’s get to work ladies.”
“Okay Yun Ho!” I heard them squeal together.
-DURING LUNCH HOUR-
The place was packed. Really really packed But thankfully lunch hour was coming in less than half an hour. I braced myself and walked towards a table which sat two very, very slutty-looking women.
“May I take your order?” I said as I bowed politely. Bowing was ABSOLUTELY necessary when it came to serving guests. If you don’t and they get offended then BANG! There goes your job. One of the women was dressed in a tight fitting tank top which showed way too much her cleavage. She wore a pair of short black pants and her blonde-highlighted-brown hair was fashionably messy. She wore a pair of gladiator heels. The other was a bit more modest. She wore a shirt which was slightly longer and not as tight but her bottom was just a pair of golden leggings. Her hair was black and short. ‘Urgh…’ I groaned to myself.
“Hey there, you’re hot. My name’s Min Ja. What’s yours?” the blonde-highlighted-brown-haired one said. I cleared my throat as I repeated my question, “May I take your order?”
The black haired one smirked as she said, “Yes. My name’s Ga Ryu and we’d like to order you.” She purred as she snaked her arms around my unsuspecting neck. I tried to pry her off but her arms were clung on so tightly, I could barely move.
Her lips were dangerously close to mine and I could swear she would have kissed me if not for my saviour.
“What are you doing? Making out in the middle of the restaurant?” That voice again. The girl immediately let go. “My you’re even cuter than he is. What’s your name?” She said seductively as she swayed her hips while walking towards him. He snorted and I smiled, “Kim Jae Joong and I don’t fuck sluts.” I grinned and he grinned back at me. Ga Ryu huffed and motioned for Min Ja to follow her. “Whatever fucking bastard.” She muttered before they exited the restaurant.
“Glad she wasn’t your girlfriend Yun Ho!” I could literally hug him right now. “Boo you’re a hero!” He visibly fumed. “Do not call me Boo you stupid ass!” He said as he stamped on my foot. I bent down and clutched it in pain, “That hurt Boo! You know I have a fragile heart!” I heard him scoff but I knew he was smiling.
“Oh what do we have here? Lover’s tiff?” I heard Lee Teuk’s voice echo. He looked at me then at Jae Joong, “Hi my name’s Park Jung Soo but call me Lee Teuk.” He smiled at stretched out his hand. I saw Jae Joong smile back at him and said, “Kim Jae Joong and nope not a lover’s tiff.” I could hear Lee Teuk chuckle. “Hyung, a little help here please? Your poor dong saeng is in pain.” I looked up at him with puppy dog eyes but all he did was just kick me away and continue smiling at Jae Joong. “Well I have a lover to attend to in the back.”
I blushed but thankfully the restaurant was already empty. Jae Joong laughed, “Okay. I was going to drag Yun Ho away anyway! Have fun and clean up after you!” Lee Teuk smiled, “I like you! See ya!”
He skipped away and Jae Joong turned to look at me. “What are you still doing on the floor? Get up pabo!” I stared at him, “I’m on the floor because of you anyway! Help me up!” He smirked and extended his hand. “Here.”
I looked at it and grabbed it. That feeling intruded my entire body again. I stood up and brushed the dust off my back. “Thanks. And you said you were going to kidnap me off somewhere?” On his face appeared a devilish smirk. “A surprise. Let’s go!” And with that, he grabbed my hand and tugged me off. “Two hours! Back at 2.30!” I heard Lee Teuk shout in between moans. “Yes sir!”
I glanced at our intertwined hands and blushed a little. ‘Why can’t you see my feelings for you Jae Joong? Will we always be only best friends?’
