"Sinyoung. Why did you lie to me ?", Heeseung's gaze met hers.
"I-I just wanted to see if you will be jealous or not !"
"What-",he heaved a sigh, pulling her into a hug,"I like you, okay? Of course I would be jealous if someone else tries to be close to you."
She pulled away from his embrace with a nod,"I am going for cheerleading practise! I am their leader, this time !"
"Really?",he chuckled pinching her cheek,"Good luck."
She nodded once again, rushing towards the indoor stadium.
Heeseung fidgeted with his fingers , lowering his gaze.
"
I see no affection in her eyes when she looks at me. Does she really like me?"

"ACK!",Haewon lost her balance as she rode the skateboard,"SUNGHOON! I WILL FALL- HELP! OH MY GOD-"
He casually held her hand,"Stop being dramatic, you literally didn't even move 10 cm-"
"BWHAHAHA."
"Idiot.",he heaved a sigh and stood on his skate board to demonstrate,"See, put your weight forward...a little...okay? Like this..."
Haewon seriously scanned his leg movement and followed,"Why am I not moving forward-"
"Put more weight . You need to balance both the sides."
She blinked looking at him.
"What?"
She spoke flashing an awkward smile,"Can we eat something first?",not waiting for his reply, she continued,"Of course , we should!",she grabbed his hand dragging him towards the nearby food stall.
Sunghoon got hold of his skateboard and let out a soft laughter as he followed her.
His lips formed a smile as he gazed at their linked hands.
"Will you join the cheerleading team ?",he questioned.
"Eh- I will look like a donkey."
"What-",he paused and turned her body towards him,"Give it a try."
"But-"
"No buts. It will suit you."
Her lips curled to form a smile,"REALLY? YOU THINK SO?"
He hummed with a reassuring smile.
"Okay ! I will give it a try...",she giggled holding a corn dog and handed another to him.
Both of them made eye contact, exchanging smiles.
"There's some sauce near your lips.",he wiped his thumb near her mouth.
Heeseung stood at a distance gazing at them, gripping the strawberry milk which he had brought for her .
He wanted to apologise for being rude earlier to both her and Sunghoon.
"Did you replace me...",he gulped sensing a knot on his throat,"Kang Haewon..."
He tried his best to not tear up. He missed being with her. He missed her so much.

Haewon was returning home holding her skateboard close to her chest.
She felt a sudden grip on her arms and the next moment she was pinned against the wall.
She gasped punching into the air,"HEY . I AM BROKE. DON'T KIDNAP ME !"
"I am not a kidnapper.",the handsome boy sighed.
She opened her eyes, blinking at the unfamiliar guy,"ARE YOU..."
"Did Sunghoon tell you about me?"
"A PERVERT ! ACK!",she hit him on his chest repeatedly,"Wait- Sunghoon?",she paused.
He groaned in pain , taking a step away,"Aren't you too strong?"
"How do you know Sunghoon? YOU STALKER!",she hit him with her backpack.
He raised his voice,"STOP! I AM HIS BROTHER!",he tried his best to defend her attacks.
"His brother...?", she gasped.
"Yes.",heaving a sigh of relief, he let his gaze meet hers,"Call me Jake."
