"what does that mean?"

"uh—i don't really know actually. one time i was walking down the street and saw someone breaking up with someone, calling them a villain and a worthless bastard," jungwoo said, shrugging his shoulders.

"d-don't call yuta that then, he isn't a villain, i-it's just that he fell out of love with me, but that doesn't make him a villain. i honestly would've fallen out of love with myself too..."

"don't say that about yourself!"

"sorry..."

"it's fine... how about we hang out a bit to cheer you up, hm?" before i could answer, jungwoo already took out his cell and started calling someone. i didn't know who he was calling for sure, but i had an idea of who it was. i started eavesdropping on his phone conversation once he started speaking.

"hey school rule breaker!" once i heard that nickname, i could confirm my own suspicions.

he was calling ten.

i gestured him to cancel the call because i didn't want to be a burden to ten too, but jungwoo ignored me.

"so yongie just got broken up with—" i could hear ten making a loud gasp through the phone, and then jungwoo continued speaking.

"i know, right? but anyways, i was thinking of hanging out with him to cheer him up a bit, and you should tag along with us too!" jungwoo paused as he was hearing what ten was saying, responding back after.

"'kay, i'll see you soon then, bye bye." jungwoo ended the call, then i immediately started scolding jungwoo.

"why would you invite him too!?"

"so that we'd have more fun, why are you acting like it's a bad thing?" i sighed then responded back.

"it's not that i think it's a bad thing—i-i just don't want to feel like a burden to more people..."

"stop putting yourself down—you're not a burden to anyone," he said back, then extended his arms out to give me another hug, and i hugged him back. after a while, we let go, and jungwoo went to go change out of his pajamas.

HE walked down the stairs wearing brown pants along with a navy blue hoodie that had the collarbone area of it cut out, finished with thumb holes cut into the sleeves.

"alright, are you ready to go out now?" said jungwoo.

"already?"

"ten just called me saying that he was waiting outside."

"oh, then let's go, i guess."

we both walked out of the front door. the sky wasn't covered in dark clouds anymore, and the sun was beaming brightly, threatening to melt us. on our driveway, there was a convertible car with ten sitting on the shotgun seat, along with his friend, johnny, sitting on the driver's seat. ten was wearing paint-splattered overalls with a white shirt underneath, while johnny was wearing a plain white shirt with a leather jacket over it, along with jeans.
