To Kiss An Idol - Chapter 189 - 189 The Solution

189 The Solution

Kyung-Soo proposed that he would buy a phone for Nivritti, but she was angry at his insinuation. She never wanted anything from anyone. She was always a proud independent woman. So, when he suggested she was offended.

“You really think I would do something like that? Try to offend you?” pouted Kyung-Soo.

Nivritti realized that she overreacted. “I am just saying that I can buy a phone for myself, you don’t have to do that,” sighed Nivritti.

“And we could have bought scarves and chocolates for ourselves. You didn’t need to do that,” pointed Young-Chul and placed a tray of glasses on the table.

“Hey! Those were gifts! And chocolates were for kids, you guys were there so I bought one for you” protested Nivritti.

“And what is he trying to do? Bribe you?” asked Young-Chul while placing the glass of water in front of everyone. He gave the first glass to Kyung-Soo, then Nivritti, then Jae-Hwa and at last to Jae-Geun. For the first time, he looked carefully at Jae-Geun. Before that, he was more concentrated on Nivritti and scolding her.

He was too concerned and worried about her. She didn’t reply to him and that made him angry. He didn’t care about anything or anyone except Nivritti. He only had eyes for her.

But now he had the time to look at others. Finally, he noticed that Jae-Hwa too rushed to Nivritti’s house in her pyjamas, she just threw an overcoat over her night dress. He looked at Jae-Geun. He was wearing a pink shirt and trousers. Young-Chul’s hands froze and he blurted out, “oh my! You are gorgeous!”

“Huh!” Jae-Hwa spewed the water from her mouth spraying the water all over Young-Chul’s face.

…..

“Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! But the thing you said about Oppa made me laugh. Sorry, Young,” apologised Jae-Hwa.

“No, no worries. I just observed that he was handsome,” replied Young-Chul. Jae-Geun immediately handed his handkerchief to Young-Chul. He wiped his face and then said to Jae-Geun, “have you tried to become an actor or an idol? You would be famous.”

“Oh, he hates K-pop,” interrupted Nivritti.

“What?” shouted Kyung-Soo and Young-Chul.

“Yeah!” smirked Nivritti.

“No, I don’t,” replied Jae-Geun, embarrassed. He looked at Nivritti and shook his head in no as stealthily as possible. Nivritti just smirked at him and let him off the hook.

“Liar! You always taunt me,” shouted Jae-Hwa.

“You are my sister, that’s why. Now shut up,” scolded Jae-Geun.

“Okay, you guys should leave. MY needs his sleep, get out,” reprimanded Nivritti.

“Isshhh… why so adamant to kick us out? It’s not like you have a boyfriend who is coming to visit you,” sulked Young-Chul.

“And why would I hide my boyfriend?” asked Nivritti.

“I don’t know,” shouted Young-Chul.

“Good night, MY. There, there is your good night message. Now, leave. You guys destroyed my sleep. I need to go back to my bed. The painkiller he gave me is strong,” yawned Nivritti.

“Okay, okay, leaving,” said Young-Chul and started placing the glasses on the tray.

“Leave it. I will clean it in the morning,” said Nivritti.

“So eager to throw us out,” pouted Jae-Hwa.

“Aisshhh… I really have to deal with kids at this time of night!!!” shouted Nivritti, frustrated.

Everyone just stood up and started running towards the door in fear. Nivritti waved her hand at them and said, “bye.”

“Should I take a look at your feet?” offered Jae-Geun.

“Just leave!!” shouted Nivritti, angrily.

“Fine, fine!” Jae-Geun raised his hands in defeat and walked out. All others followed him, and the door locked behind them.

“I need to change the passcode,” Nivritti shook her head in disbelief. Suddenly a bulb lit over her head, “shit! He entered the passcode in front of MY, that idiot!” She facepalmed, hard.

“She is scary when she gets angry,” said Jae-Geun.

“Yeah, tell me about it. I thought MY was the scary one but then we get to know her,” nodded Kyung-Soo.

“Hey!” protested Young-Chul and threw his hand in the air in disbelief.

“So, you will come here tomorrow?” Kyung-Soo inquired with Jae-Geun.

“Yes, I will take her to the police station. Don’t worry,” smiled Jae-Geun.

“What are you going to do about her phone?” asked Jae-Hwa.

“What can I do? She will kill me if I buy a phone for her on my own,” replied Kyung-Soo.

“Ask, SK Hyung, he can find a way. You know they think alike, both are smart,” suggested Young-Chul.

“Good idea,” smiled Kyung-Soo.

They all climbed down the stairs and went to their respective cars and drove away.

Nivritti walked up to her bed and tucked herself inside the blanket and slept smiling. Young-Chul, who never used to reply to her came to get his good night message personally. Jae-Hwa dragged her brother to check up on her. She had had friends before but not like them.

When she didn’t use to reply to her past friends, no one ever came to check up on her. No one even knows what happened with her and Ritvik. She broke all her ties with her so-called friends. But this, the feeling she felt just now was something else, this relationship was something else.

Both brother and sister reached their house and walked in quietly as they didn’t want to wake their parents.

Whereas after Young-Chul and Kyung-Soo reached their mansion, all the boys came running to the garage even before Kyung-Soo could park his car.

“Ha-ha, she threw you out,” Jung-Hwa started laughing the moment he saw Young-Chul.

“Wah! He was crying a few minutes ago and now look at him,” Korain hit Jung-Hwa on his head.

“Hyung!” pouted Jung-Hwa.

“Where did she lose her phone?” asked Jeong-Eun. All the boys walked inside the house, together.

“She doesn’t know,” replied Kyung-Soo.

“So, she is going to the police station tomorrow, right?” inquired Kyung-Soo.

“Yes, hyung, she is going,” smiled Kyung-Soo. “Jae-Hwa suggested that, and she shut her down but when you explained, she said she will go.”

“Good! How is her leg?” asked Thae.

“Same! But she took the medicine, thank God for that,” answered Young-Chul.

“So, you got your good night message?” asked Him-Chan.

“Yes, I did. Now I am going to sleep,” announced Young-Chul and started moving towards his room.

“Wait! Everyone, I want to ask you all something, mostly SK hyung,” said Kyung-Soo.

“What?” asked Korain.

“I want to buy a phone for her, but she does not want it from me. MY even counterpointed that she keeps giving us gifts but is adamant that she will not accept it from me,” said Kyung-Soo, sadly.

“Hmm…” Korain rubbed his chin and kept thinking for a few seconds. “Then let’s all give her that.”

“What? You want to give her seven phones?” asked Thae.

“Where did he get his brain from?” Korain rolled his eyes at him.

“Sorry, hyung, continue,” Thae lowered his head in shame.

“I mean let’s all contribute and buy her a phone. That way all her friends are giving her a gift and she won’t feel offended, nor will she reject it,” explained Korain.

“I told you he will find a solution,” smiled Young-Chul.

“And even if she wants to get angry, she can’t get angry at every one of us,” Korain shrugged his shoulder.

“If we are including all her friends, let’s include Jae-Hwa too,” suggested Him-Chan.

“Wow, hyung, I love you,” Jeong-Eun jumped over him and hugged him tightly.

“Okay, okay, enough,” Him-Chan pushed him away immediately.

“PJ, send her a message in the group,” suggested Kyung-Soo.

“Right away, hyung,” smiled Jeong-Eun.

“But Ritti can read the message in the group. Don’t you guys want it to be a surprise?” said Thae.

All sighed, rolled their eyes at him and went to their respective rooms. “What? What did I say?” Thae asked innocently. “Oh right! She lost her phone so cannot receive any messages,” Thae hit his forehead softly and smiled at his own intelligence. He was proud that he figured it out himself.

Jeong-Eun opened the group chat and sent a message to Jae-Hwa. He knew everyone could read the messages, so he was formal with his tone.

“Jae! We have decided that we all will contribute and get a phone for Ritti. That way she won’t deny, and we all can pressure her to take the phone. Want in?”

Within a few seconds, she replied, “yes, and my Oppa too wants to chip in, if it’s with you all.”

Kyung-Soo, who was reading the messages, dropped his shoulder sadly. “Why is he so interested in her? And why was she teasing and smirking at him? Fine, he is handsome, he is a doctor, he cares for her, but is he a good friend just like me? Am I her good friend? But I don’t want to be just her friend,” pouted Kyung-Soo.

Before he could reply, Korain messaged, “of course, he can, he too is her friend, right?”

Jae-Hwa replied, “yes, he is. Thank you, Coin [smiley emoji]”

“You are very welcome, Jae [smiley emoji],” Korain messaged.
