To Kiss An Idol-Chapter 160 - 160 The Forced Guest

160 The Forced Guest

With a bored expression on her face, she moved towards the door and without looking through the peephole, she opened the door.

“Move, move, move,” Jae-Hwa shouted and entered the house with an overnight bag.

Before Nivritti could understand anything, Jae-Hwa took off her shoes and walked to her room to place the overnight bag. Nivritti just stood away from her door giving space to Jae-Hwa. Her brain was miles away. She had no idea what was happening before her eyes. She just saw Jae-Hwa enter her apartment.

She blinked hard to see clearly. Was she hallucinating? Why was Jae-Hwa inside her house, that too with a bag?

“Sorry!” Jae-Geun’s voice made her look outside the door. He smiled at her and walked in.

“Wait! What is happening?” shouted Nivritti.

“What do you mean what is happening?” asked Jae-Geun. “Did you have no idea we were coming?”

“What?”

“But Jaehwa said that she told you,” informed Jae-Geun.

.....

“She told me what? When?” shouted Nivritti.

“What the hell? Why weren’t you answering your phone?” shouted Jae-Hwa as soon as she appeared in the living room.

“My… my phone! I have no idea where that is,” said Nivritti and ran inside her room. Both brother and sister followed her. Her bed was not made, half her blanket was lying on the floor, her pillow was titled, her laptop was lying on the nightstand, but her phone was nowhere to be found.

She could swear that she heard a few notifications, then why didn’t she hear the ringtone when Jae-Hwa called her? She flung her blanket away to look for her phone, but it was not there. She jumped on her bed and kept looking under every corner of the blanket.

When she could not find it on her bed, she lay on the bed and looked under her bed.

“Is she okay?” asked Jae-Geun, confused.

“I don’t know,” replied Jae-Hwa. Both brother and sister tilted their head to look at Nivritti and her antics.

“Where is it?” shouted Nivritti and abruptly she kicked her pillow. A faint thud sound attracted her attention. “Shit! I looked everywhere on the bed but didn’t look under my pillow.” And there it was, her phone, lying silently under her pillow.

She looked at the notification bar, there were multiple messages and calls from Jae-Hwa. “Woah! Why were you calling me?”

“To tell you that we are coming, and we are going out and then I will stay here tonight,” announced Jae-Hwa.

“Wh… what?” asked Nivritti, shocked.

“What is wrong with you? Where is your mind?” shouted Jae-Hwa.

Nivritti sighed, “I don’t know. I just wanted to waste my whole day lying in front of the TV. I don’t have the energy to do anything.”

“I don’t care. Get ready, we are going out,” shouted Jae-Hwa. “We will have lunch outside and then go for a movie.”

“Better we should go site seeing. She is new to Korea, we can show her places,” suggested Jae-Geun.

“I don’t want to go. You guys go,” sulked Nivritti.

“What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you so pouty and sulky?” asked Jae-Hwa.

“No idea. I slept late, woke up late, I don’t feel like doing anything,” answered Nivritti.

“Oppa! Check her,” ordered Jae-Hwa.

“What? I am fine. Just tired of reading scripts day and night. I need a break, a day where I do nothing. Just watch TV idly,” replied Nivritti.

“Did Heirana call you?” asked Jae-Geun, concerned.

“Jae-Geun! I am okay. I am not depressed or something like that. And it’s just been days since I saw her. She needs time to check my history,” smiled Nivritti.

“See you want to idly sit, eat and watch TV. Then Jaehwa’s plan should be okay for you. We will eat and watch a movie. We will just do that outside your house. Come on! Come out with us,” requested Jae-Geun.

Nivritti blew a raspberry and said, “Okay, fine! But I will need time. I have to clean the plates, dry them, press my clothes, then take a bath, get ready…” She kept making a list.

Jae-Hwa jumped at her and covered her mouth with her palm. “Shut up!” she shouted. “I will take care of pressing your clothes, Oppa will take care of plates, you just go and take a bath.”

“What? Why me?” pouted Jae-Geun.

“Do you want to press her clothes?” Jae-Hwa raised one of her eyebrows at him.

“No, that’s fine,” his cheeks turned red at the thought of handling Nivritti’s clothes. Before the girls could see his crimson cheeks, he ran out of the room. He picked up the plates and went to the kitchen sink.

Meanwhile, Jae-Hwa forced Nivritti to choose a dress that she would wear for their outing. She chose a simple white t-shirt and black jeans and paired them with a black leather jacket. She went inside the bathroom while both brother and sister were helping her.

After a few minutes, she came out and got ready to go out. Jae-Geun looked at her and was mesmerized. Even after dressing up in such a simple dress, she looked beautiful. He kept smiling at her.

Nivritti switched off everything and they were ready to go out.

Jae-Hwa punched Nivritti’s upper arm and shouted, “why didn’t you tell me what happened in the hospital?

Nivritti’s eyes widened with shock. Did Jae-Hwa know what happened in the hospital? She looked at Jae-Geun with anger. He must have told her everything.

“What? What are you talking about?” asked Nivritti.

“Oppa told me everything. I asked you about the hospital, you said everything was fine. Why did you lie?” shouted Jae-Hwa.

“Wh… what?” Nivritti lost her voice.

Jae-Geun observed her expression. He once stared at his sister and then at Nivritti. He understood why Nivritti looked shocked and scared and slightly angry. She must be thinking that Jae-Hwa somehow knew about ASD but she was wrong. That was not the thing Jae-Hwa was talking about. He had to tell that to Nivritti.

“She is talking about the incident that occurred in the emergency room,” informed Jae-Geun.

Nivritti gulped and as usual licked her lips. A current ran through Jae-Geun’s body when he saw that. His eyes were ready to come out their sockets. His heart almost jumped out of his mouth.

“What was that? What the hell was that?” he thought and stopped breathing.

“Oh! Emergency room incident! I thought Jae-Geun must have told you. Moreover, you just asked about my session and that was good, so basically, I didn’t lie,” replied Nivritti.

“What?” shouted Jae-Hwa and punched Nivritti again.

“Ooww!!” screamed Nivritti. “Stop hitting me, it hurts.”

“If he would not have told me, I would have never gotten the news,” pouted Jae-Hwa.

“Relax! He was there for me. I was fine after he calmed me down,” Nivritti grabbed Jae-Hwa’s shoulder and spoke.

“But why didn’t you tell me before?” asked Jae-Hwa.

“I never thought about that. Also, when we were talking Mr. Seong came and disturbed our talk, remember?” asked Nivritti.

“Yeah, right!” Jae-Hwa thought back. “Okay, let’s go. We will go to a restaurant. We can get movie tickets online.”

“Fine!” said Nivritti.

Jae-Hwa opened the door and walked away first. Nivritti too moved out, but Jae-Geun was frozen. He was still in the moment when Nivritti licked her lips. There was something in that gesture that tucked at his heartstrings. He had no idea what, but there was something. He got a sudden rush to kiss her.

A sudden rush to touch her lips, kiss her lips, taste her lips took over him. He kept staring at the spot where Nivritti was standing just a few seconds ago. He wanted to grab her and place his lips over hers. It was getting hard to control his feelings.

“Hey! Jae-Geun!” Nivritti snapped her fingers in front of his face.

“What? What??” he shouted after coming back to his senses.

“Where were you? Jae-Hwa left, let’s go,” she ordered.

“Oh, sorry! Right, let’s,” he gulped and avoided looking at her.

They moved out and the door automatically locked itself. Jae-Hwa kept jumping over the stairs and was walking in front of Jae-Geun and Nivritti.

Nivritti was feeling bad that she doubted Jae-Geun. She thought he had told the secret about ASD to Jae-Hwa but he never said a word about them. She had to say sorry to him.

“Jae-Geun!” she whispered but he was still thinking about her and her lips. He never heard her words. She hurried her steps and came next to Jae-Geun. “Jae-Geun!” she again whispered but again he didn’t pay any attention to her.

Annoyed, she grabbed his hand and stopped him mid-way. Her soft, warm hand felt soothing to his racing heart. Finally, he looked at her.

“Are you okay?” she asked.

“Yeah, yeah, just thinking about things,” he replied and smiled at her. The sensation of her hands in his hands was enticing. He loved the way her hands felt in his.

“I am sorry,” she apologised.

“What? Why are you sorry?” he asked. 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺

“I thought you told Jae-Hwa everything. Sorry for doubting you,” she apologised again.

“I would never tell her someone’s secret,” he replied.
