I was smiling and blinking in shock because I did NOT expect that. She was just pretending to be fine but I could tell she was extremely worried and perplexed. I tried to help her by asking if she remembered anything, but she said no and that Siyeon kept on ignoring her for a while.

"I don't know if I did something more and that's why she acts so distant towards me now, but I'm really worried if this will affect anything."

"Do you want me to talk to her about this?"

"There's no point. If she doesn't want to talk to me, then it's fine. Time will decide everything."

I pat her shoulder and turned to look at Minji and she was playing with her pencil. I hoped this class would end faster so I could talk to her about this.

9:45 AM / KMJ

First class was over and now it was time for History. Definitely my favorite... Yoohyeon still had English and unfortunately, I couldn't talk to her when she called me since that fucking English teacher got to her first. What an asshole..

I went in my classroom and I got surprised to see Siyeon there before everyone. She noticed me and quickly grabbed my hands and pulled me to a corner.

"Minji, I'm in trouble."

"What trouble?"

I listened to her being hysterical at first before actually explaining what happened. I took her water bottle from her back pocket and started drinking from it while listening. I have no idea how it's always there, but it is. She took a final breath and started talking.

"Listen, you were at Yoohyeon's two weeks ago and you know Bora visited her, right?"

"Mhm."

"And you know that we went out shopping that day, I assume?"

"Affirmative."

"Okay so.. Me and Bora went to a club and got drunk and I think.. we fucked-"

"WHAT!?"

I spilled the water everywhere. I didn't expect to hear that of all things possible.

"Thanks for the free shower..- Okay, but the problem is that I got so drunk to the point I don't remember anything and I ignored her every day.. I was scared that she might ask me something about it and I wouldn't know what to say."

"Why would you ignore her because of that?"

"Because... I don't know! I was scared.."

"Gosh Siyeon.. Want me to speak to Bora?"

"No point. I'll just wait for a bit until she forgets about it. And if she doesn't, then I don't know what to do."

I sighed as the other students got in the room and went to their seats. I sat next to Siyeon and noticed she was really feeling off. She fell asleep and I thought of telling Yoohyeon about this. I'm sure we'll figure out what to do.
