Y/n and their parents were present in Joshua's room when Ellie got a call from the Police . The mobile phone almost slipped out of her hand when she heard Jeonghan was arrested for such crimes , she hung up and got up quickly and grabbed her purse , ready to leave , to go to the police station .

"What happened , where are you going " Noah asked who was sitting beside her

"To the police station" Ellie shortly replied

"Why" Y/n , Noah and Joshua questioned at same time

"They arrested Jeonghan , I have to go" Ellie replied walking out quickly

"I'm coming with you" Noah said leaving with her

Y/n and Joshua looked at each other shocked yet somehow relieved that Jeonghan was arrested and bad things won't happen further . Y/n got worried about Hye-in and Joshua was not sure about what to feel but somehow he felt like it was the time to tell y/n about his past in LA

"Y/n " He called her name in low voice grabbing her attention

"Sit here " he patted the empty space on his bed

She did as he said and listened carefully what he wanted to say

"I don't want to burden you and the situation is a little tough i know , Jeonghan got arrested , Hye-in will be found very soon but I feel like I have to tell you , I need to tell you , I need get it out , all of it , trapped in my mind , Those memories from LA , The reason I decided to come back to Korea forever even tho I wanted to spend my life in LA and ..just everything"

"Pass the ball Josh" Jay shouted ready to take the ball but Joshua ignored and made a goal

Jay frowned but let it go and continued to focus on the game but Joshua kept showing ignorant attitude like tripping his teammates , not passing the ball and most likely playing by himself , Jay had enough so he stopped the game mid-way and called it a little break as they were just practicing . Joshua sat on the near bench , grabbed a water bottle , gulping down the water . Jay came and sat beside him , looking at him bitterly . Joshua noticed and asked

"What"

"Are you going to play like that in the final game , If yes then please leave already"

"Play like what, I'm making you win and you are complaining?"

"Winning? You don't call pushing your own team aside and playing by yourself winning . If you want to play alone then leave the team , don't make a joke of ourselves infront of ours opponents "

"What's wrong with you" with that Joshua got up and left

Next day

"Man I heard a cute girl transferred to our class" Vernon said sitting beside Joshua

"You shouldn't be calling random girls cute when your girlfriend is sitting right infront of you , Right Sarah?" Jay who was sitting alone at the very end , behind Vernon and Joshua

"Exactly" said Sarah turning to look at Vernon getting angry ironically

"Silence Students!" Said the teacher entering the classroom making everyone quietly take their seats

"We have a new student with us today , Welcome her nicely" The teacher said before calling the new student in the classroom and telling her to introduce herself

"Hi , I'm Jung Seo-ra , Bully me for being asian and you'll go back home with a broken arm " she said flashing a pretty smile

"You can take your seat now" The teacher said

Seo-ra looked around and her eyes fell on a pretty boy and luckily a seat was empty behind him , she quickly walked at the back and sat beside Jay
