STUBBORN HEARTS<3 (complete)

When It Rains, It Pours

From being the most-admired to being a total reject. Yeah, so much for keeping up to a popular

image. Ending my friendship with the girls made me realize that I don't really have that much

friends. I don't even know the names of some of my classmates. I guess I just kept to myself too

much.

“Hello” a nervous voice greeted. I looked up and saw Heechul. “I'm just wondering if you don't

have any plans for lunch? It's just that me and my friends noticed you've been alone these past

days. I kind of thought that maybe you want to join our table?”

“You and your friends?” I asked.

“N-neh” he stammered.

“I'm sorry, but I already made plans” I lied.

“Oh” he mumbled and bowed to me before walking away.

This is what I hate about the situation. The cool kids laugh at me then the nerd ones think I'm on

th same level with them. Jezz. But then, I don't really have any company right now. I hate being

alone, though I must say I'm always alone. But I;m totally not going to surrender to the girls and

I'm still not talking to Woo oppa.

Later. . .

I was surprised to see Woo oppa waiting for me in the living room.

“Hi” he smiled. I just nodded in return. I don't really take rejection hat easily, you know.

“What up?” I asked.

“I heard you and the girls have a little problem?”

I snorted. “I can't really call our problem little”

“Want to talk about it?” he asked. I didn't answer at once and just looked at him. After a while, I

sighed and went to sit in the sofa. Oppa followed and did the same.

I sighed again and started telling him what happen in the club, about Jessica, about everything

except for the part where Hyuna mentioned him.

“They did that?” he asked. I just shrugged.

“I'm sorry for what happened. But if you like, we can sue them”

“No. we don't have enough evidence anyways. They can always deny they're the ones who put

it” I said. Wow, I feel so intelligent! Haha!

“I'm sorry” he apologized again.

“What are you apologizing for? You didn't do anything in the first place”

“I feel responsible for Jessica, though” he said. “Dad insisted that I bring her along to the party.

If I knew it would end like this. . .”

“Oh, don't be sorry. I guess it's for the better. At least I now know that they aren't really my

friends” I said, acting careless.

I felt his hand on top of mine. “I'm still here” he said.

I smiled. “Thanks. For always looking out for me”

“Dara” he slowly said. I looked at him. There was a look of hesitation in his face. I find this

really weird.
