Treat You Better | Kang Minhee [ ✔️ ]

15 : back to school

as a married couple, you would expect hwayoung and wonjin to cuddle in bed comfortably to sleep and wake up with morning kisses. unfortunately, no

hwayoung is in the kitchen, having breakfast while her husband, wonjin is preparing for work. today she will be back to school for year end exams before they graduate

"jagi, can you help me with my necktie?"

"no."

"please... " he begged

"ugh fine"

she stood up and approached him, she took the necktie and tied it neatly under the collar of his shirt

"thank you" he kissed her forehead

"you're welcome. now hurry up! i can't be late for school"

"okay okay let's go"

"have fun at school" he said as they arrive in front of the school gate

"it will be less fun since i took a three week off" she replied

"i'll pick you up at-"

"you don't have to. i'll be going home myself"

"no you won't. wait there at the bus stop and don't go anywhere. im warning you"

"okay whatever bye!" she quickly got out and ran inside

"heejin! aecha!" she shouted and hugged them

"hwayoung! why are you at school?"

"how will i graduate if i don't take the exams?"

"can't you delay it?"

"for what?"

"we thought you we're on honeymoon" taeyoung muttered

"honeymoon with him? no!" she chuckled

"oh wait.. where is minhee?"

they all went silent. thinking how are they supposed to tell her

"guys? where is he?"

"uhm.. hwayoung.. there is something you need to know" seongmin spoke

"minhee moved to his hometown in suncheon" hyeongjun explained

"what?!"

"we're sorry we didn't told you. we didn't want you to worry"

she grabbed her bag and ran out of the classroom. she she climbed the stairs and went to the rooftop

she sat down and cried. being on the school's rooftop reminded her first lunch with him

"im sorry... im sorry" she sobbed while hugging her knees. suddenly she heard footsteps coming from the stairs

"hwayoung!" someone shouted

"hwayoung,, please don't do it!" aecha shrieked and hold onto her tightly

"hwayoung,, this is not a way to end your life-"

"wait,what are you guys talking about?!"

aecha wiped her tears "we thought you are gonna jump off the rooftop"

"what?! no.. i just wanted to be alone" she laughed. her friends could be stupid sometimes but this actually proves that they care for her

"now let's go, we have a lot of papers to deal with before we get a break"

that day was totally hectic. after finishing today's exam paper, they all decided to go to the cafe nearby. on their way, aecha nearly fainted

"aecha? you okay? you look pale" hwayoung asked

"im fine. im just tired"

"you should go home"

"bby.. let me take you home" youngtae turned around and she climbed on his back

"guys we'll be going now. see y'all tomorrow" he waved and left to the bus stop

"bby? they're a couple?" she glanced at heejin

"uh yeah. long story"

"what about you two?" she looked at hyeongjun and then heejin

"w-what?"

"no it's not what you think!"

she and seongmin laughed. besides being stupid, they're also not good at keeping secrets
