Part 4

After that infamous incident with Yonghwa, as much as they like Seohyun to be happy, the girls asked their relationship to be kept secret and be more careful in the eyes of the public.

“Seohyun has been looking great nowadays!” MC Yoo complimented her when they went to Come to Play as guests, one of their many album promotions.

Seohyun felt her cheeks reddened, she gave out a smile and looked down “Kamsahamnida” she said shyly

“Yeah, it makes me sad that we don’t have a teenager in our group. She has become a radiant lady” Taeyeon said

“Yeah she is glowing, sometimes that kind of glow is caused by love” MC Yoo smiled teasingly at Seohyun “Right SeoHyun-ssi?”

“Aigoo” she laughed nervously, she held Hyo’s hand that is beside her and pressed it lightly, looking for help

Hyoyeon clapped as soon as she got the message “She is!” All eyes and camera abruptly transferred from Seohyun to her “She’s always in love…. with goguma.” She finished her sentence

Seohyun sighed secretly and giggled, thankful of her savior. She saw her other unnies laugh too, and they started to talk about goguma to their relief.

After the recording, they were on their way to their dorm.

“Unnie, komawo.” She said reaching for Hyo’s hand

“It’s nothing, we perfectly knew you are not a good liar” she said as she put her hand on top of Seohyun’s hand

“So where is HE?” Tiffany grinned at her

“He’s somewhere, but unnie, where is a good place to go when you’re going on a date?” She asked both her unnies in a hushed tone afraid of their manager to hear

“Amusement park is the best for couples, riding a bicycle together or going to a movie and dinner date.” Tiffany enumerated excitedly

“But….” Hyo intercepted her excitement “Knowing your status as an idol, it is impossible to go on such a public place without anyone noticing you”

“Oh! You’re such a spoil sport!” Tiffany pouted “But yeah, Hyo is right Seohyunie..” she sighed and shook her head, disappointed

“How about going on that sort of date outside our country?” Seohyun said her eyes sparkling as the scenario danced in her head “I think it might work”

“Yeah, well for us to go on that kind of date, we really need to go to another country.” Hyo sighed at her optimism “But Seohyunie, it will take a proper planning and you should have a vacation for at least 5 days to go travel, and with our schedule nowadays, we can’t” she shook her head

Seohyun gave them a mysterious smile and asked their manager that is seated on the front seat of their van “We don’t have a schedule the whole day tomorrow, right Oppa?”

“Yes, Seohyunie, you have your long awaited rest day” He chuckled as he looked at her

Seohyun nodded cheerfully “Komawo oppa!”

“Yah! What are you going to do?!” Hyo asked her in an alarmed motherly tone

“I’ll be gone the whole day tomorrow but don’t worry unnie, I’ll be back by 8 or 9 in the evening” she said assuring “I think Japan would be great right? Since we have yet to debut there, no one might recognize me.” Seohyun said

“Seohyunie, it’s true that we have not yet debuted in Japan but you can’t underestimate our popularity, we have Japanese fans too.” Tiffany continued after pondering “Although I have to say Japan is a nice choice, since you can fly there for 2hours 14minutes to be exact. You’ll be back in no time” she smiled

“But you should have minute disguises, glasses and a cap or a beanie won’t hurt, just keep it low.” Hyo added

Seohyun pouted; her right knuckle below her chin as she tried to organize a plan in her head.

Tiffany nudged her “Don’t worry too much, we’ll help you. In fact, when we arrive at our house later, I’ll be the one to book your flight.” She volunteered

Seohyun looked at Tiffany her eyes rounded “Aniyo, you don’t have to Unnie!” she said shaking her head but to no avail her unnies insisted, so she just gave in.

--

“Yong!” Seohyun called his name the moment she entered her room, and in an instant she saw him standing in front of her, smiling at her with those soulful eyes

“Meet me at the airport at 2am later, okay?” she said as she sat on her bed

“Why?” Yonghwa asked with a confused look on his face

“We’re going to Japan” she gave him a bright smile

“But, we can be there without going inside the plane Hyun.” He answered while sitting next to her, his heart beating faster by the minute

“I know, but Tiffany unnie booked us a ticket, so we have to be there.” She answered, her head turned to face from him to the door when someone knocked on it, she stood up to open it “You have to be there, okay?” she looked at him tenderly as she held the doorknob. And as soon as Yonghwa nodded she said “Okay, see you later” and Yonghwa disappeared

“Are you helping me with my packing and my clothes to wear later?” she asked after she opened the door for her two unnies who nodded excitedly

--

Yonghwa stood on the roof of the tallest tower in Seoul as he was pondering on what to do with Seohyun. Yes, he is a Cupid and he should know such things, dating to be exact but he felt at lost. Dating a fellow Cupid is one thing but dating a mortal is different as it seems, aside from the broken rule, it’s hard for him to act as a mortal’s boyfriend.

Yes, they kissed but it was just a spur of a moment, as if a spell was casted through thin air the moment they looked at each other after she confessed. And boy was he thankful her unnies went home, if not, he might not know what he might do next.

And when Seohyun announced their trip to Japan later, he felt ambivalent. He is overjoyed just thinking of them spending time with each other, but nervous and awkward at the same time that his palms started to sweat and his heart raced just thinking of how to hold her hand.

--

At the airport entrance, Yonghwa, dressed in black tee and blue jeans, was waiting for Seohyun patiently cradling a blue backpack with him.

Seohyun stormed outside Hyo’s car, sporting a pink baby tee, skinny jeans, a pair of pink high cut converse shoes, a black baseball cap to hide her face and black brimmed eyeglasses completed her get up. “Oppa, mianheyo, I went here as fast as I could.” She said as soon as she is near him, Tiffany and Hyo trailing behind her

Tiffany handed her purse and passport and looked at Yonghwa “Take care of our Seobaby, arassoyo?”

“If not, 8 people will hate you” Hyo said with a smile on her face but her eyes tell otherwise

Yonghwa let out a nervous laugh and nodded to both of them “I’ll take good care of her.” he said

Both sighed and said their goodbyes, motioned for them to go inside for check in and turned their back to go back to their car as soon as they saw the couple inside.

Seohyun nudged Yonghwa and whispered “Oppa, by any chance do you have a passport?” she asked, worried

Yonghwa looked at the busy people around them and secretly opened his hand in front of Seohyun and a passport magically appeared. “I guess I have one” he grinned sheepishly

Seohyun’s eyes rounded in surprise, she looked around to check if someone saw what has just happened and sighed in relief after realizing that no one has been paying them much attention “Oppa, you should not do that in public” she whispered adamantly, her arms crossed and her head tilted on his direction

“Arasso” he nodded, a playful grin on his face. “Let’s go in” he was about to grab Seohyun’s elbow to guide her but he stopped midway, he tapped her instead and walk beside her

--

Exactly 5 am the plane touched down, the sun peeking its way from the clouds as soon as they walk outside the airport.

They went inside a café and started planning their day ahead. Seohyun took out a white diary from her bag, opened it and started to scribble something on it “Oppa, Tiffany Unnie said we should go to an amusement park. What do you think?” she said looking at him, her eyes sparkling with excitement

“Do you want to go there?” he asked cautiously not knowing of what to do, he feel alienated

“Yes, they said a couple should at least date in an amusement park at least once. They said it’s really fun” she answered

Yonghwa smiled tenderly “Hyun-ah, I might be Cupid, god of love, but I’m not an expert on dating in your world, we cupids in general just hook up individuals that we think are best for each other but after that we leave them as they grew together or fell apart. So whatever we are going to do here are new to me too.” He explained “So whatever they said is fun, then we’ll do it.” He finished

Seohyun smiled while looking at his lost expression “Don’t worry oppa. We’ll find our way through this” she said as she sipped her goguma latte

Yonghwa looked at her with adoring eyes he wanted to put his hand on top of Seohyun’s hand on the table but resisted, he sighed and said “Do you want to arm wrestle?”

“De?!” Seohyun looked at him, a surprised look on her face

“What are you trying to do Yonghwa?!” he scolded himself as he took as sip on his latte

“Okay” she agreed

It was his turn to get surprised but he chose to laugh it off and started their wrestle. As soon as her palm touched his fingers he felt a tingle, originated from his heart down to the pit of his stomach. “This is making me insane” he thought as he loose to her on purpose “Whoever will won this game will have a wish.”

Seohyun nodded while trying her best in defeating him. She beamed and clapped in delight as soon as she won. “So you owe me one wish now, right?” he nodded, a knowing smile on his lips

--

As expected, the amusement park date is fun. Seohyun and Yonghwa rode the giant teacup and spin it with incredible speed that they both felt nauseous. The moment they stepped outside that cup with unsteady gait, Yonghwa instinctively held Seohyun’s hand, pulled her close and his arm flew on her shoulder to steady her gait “Kwenchana?” he asked, sorry for spinning the cup wildly and at the same time concerned

With hands on her temples Seohyun looked up at him and smiled lovingly her eyes dazzling “Komawoyo oppa” she felt her heart started to pick up speed, and her cheeks flushed in a dark shade of pink as she look at his piercing eyes, his aristocratic nose and his full red lips, unknowingly she licked lips

As if time stood still, Yonghwa studied her almond shaped eyes that sparkled like the stars in the night, her perfectly shaped nose and her cherry lips wet from licking, he bit his lower lips as he tried to resist temptation, he sucked a long breath in, closed his eyes and exhaled loudly

Seohyun blinked, she shook her head to shake off the thought of their first kiss. “Oppa, kwenchanayo?” she broke their awkward silence

Yonghwa smiled awkwardly “Yeah, are you ready to go ride the roller coaster?” he said as he took his arm from her shoulder and took her hand in a subtle way “Jashik!” he exclaimed tenderly

Seohyun look at their intertwined hand gleefully she pressed his hand in return the moment she felt him pressed it. “Oppa, let’s buy cotton candy first.” She said trying to avoid the scariest ride there is in that place, she smiled sweetly at him

It has been hours and with the heating sun, they went inside a pasta restaurant to have their lunch. Seohyun look around the room before hesitantly taking off her cap before she ate. They had a good conversation; they laughed and whined like a normal couple does. They paid and walk hand in hand, her cap left behind.

It’s almost 4pm and they rode every single ride in that amusement park except one, the roller coaster. Yonghwa knew she was trying to avoid that but he wanted to see a different side of her. “Now for the grand finale..” he held her close as he dragged her to the roller coaster line.

She whined and tried her full force aegyo for them to skip that ride but to no avail, Yonghwa is firm on his decision, for the first time he did not let her win him “Oppa, I have a wish that you need to fulfill right?” she let out her tramp card

“Aniyo, I want your wish to be meaningful” he said sheepishly, his hand tightly held hers

Seohyun sat beside Yonghwa on the first row seat. Her heart is thumping hard due to fear as she watched the roller coaster rail, her eyes mirrored fear in the truest sense of the word. She checked her safety belt repeatedly “It won’t fall off, would it?” she asked the guy in-charge in which he answered reassuring her that it is safe

Yonghwa studied her terrified face, he felt guilt, he held his hand tight and tried to cheer her up “Hyun, this is really fun, we’ll just have to enjoy it, and it’s safe so you don’t have to worry, I’m here, I’m a magical being.” He assured her with a tender smile

Seohyun sighed and held his hand tight, hearing those words made her a bit assured. Yeah, how can she forget he has magic? If anything goes wrong they can just magically disappear from there. She gave him a nervous smile “I forgot you have magic”

The roller coaster started, they felt the wind blowing on their face, stronger by the minute. They felt their pulse quickened as it climbed a few feet from its starting point. As they stared down, they saw the whole area of the amusement park and some of the neighboring town beside it down under. They felt the cool air blown and their hair messed up, the anticipation of a sudden fall filled their hearts as they saw a deep slope ahead. As soon as their ride suddenly fell, it felt their internal organs were left behind, including their soul. They screamed their lungs out and felt everything they underwent was a blur, with every sharp turn and loop they held each others’ hand tightly and Yonghwa wrapped his arm on her shoulder for added protection. The moment their ride was almost over they looked at each other and laughed loudly as they arranged their hair. Seohyun wiped her damp cheeks, she don’t want for her tears to fall but they fell anyway as she conquered the roller coaster. She smiled to herself, yes she conquered one her fear but not without screaming and she have Yonghwa to thank that.

They stepped out of the ride and felt their world spinning, their knees wobbled each step they made but they felt ecstatic as they saw the candid picture that was captured, with their messed up hair and terrified expression, they laughed as they studied it on their hand.

“This will become a great memory.” Seohyun said quietly, her smile devine

Yonghwa took the strand of her hair away from her face and put it behind her ear, he looked at her tenderly and said “Mianhe, Seohyunie”

She looked up at him and smiled “Kwenchanayo, oppa. This is the first time I rode that thing and I had fun, although it was nerve wrecking but I conquered it, so it’s meaningful. And it’s more meaningful because I conquered it with you. Komawoyo.” She beamed, she held his hand and walked slowly, it’s almost sunset, they knew their day is almost over, they savored the happiness that they felt “I feel good”

They went inside a sushi restaurant and ate. Just before they finished eating Seohyun phone rang, she answered it the third ring “Hyo unnie! I had fun today! Thank you for your help” she started as soon as she tick the answer button

“Seohyunie, we have a problem. Get back here as soon as possible!” Hyo answered urgently “We’re in trouble. Somebody took pictures of you there and uploaded it on the internet. Manager oppa is furious. And I think SM bosses saw the pictures too, it’s all over the net!”

Seohyun’s then happy face went pale, her hand trembling while listening to the other line “I’ll be there unnie.” she said as her tears flow down her cheeks. She stared at Yonghwa for one whole minute before she spill the beans on him “O-oppa otoke?” she finished her sentence , her face clueless and afraid “Our perfect date has ended with a disaster.” She sobbed “Mianhe, if only I had been more careful, this should not have happened.” she added and stood up “Let’s go oppa. I need to go back ASAP”

At lost for words, Yonghwa followed her “I-it’s not your fault Seohyunie, I should’ve taken care of you more.” He said as soon as he found his tongue, but she is deaf with her own worries, he grabbed her wrist, he put his hands on her shoulders and leveled himself on her, he caught her terrified eyes before saying “It’s not your fault Seo JooHyun. Arasso? I’m here, don’t be afraid. I’ll stay by your side as long as it takes” he said his heart on his sleeves

Seohyun looked at the sincere man in front of her; her heart swooned as she does so. How can he be so handsome? She cupped his face lovingly “Oppa, whatever happens, remember that I love you” she said she stepped closer and gave him a quick kiss on his waiting lips “We need to go back there oppa, please use your magic, at the airport will do.”

Yonghwa took her at a secluded area, he swerved his hand and his ring lit up in a shade of pink and engulfed them completely, Seohyun felt the world blur and in a split second they are inside an empty comfort room cubicle.
