Thats until when she finished half of the circular track, she started wheezing for air and her legs were jelly. Chaejin was just behind her so the friend ran next to jihyeon.

"What round are you on now? "

"5. You? "

"I just started . " jihyeon replied , wiping the sweat off her cheeks.

"Well, good luck. I'm going to go ahead. By the way, just to inform you, you only have 18 minutes to finish 8 more rounds. " and with that, chaejin left jihyeon who was already panicking as she started running faster.

"YAH! CHAEJIN WAIT FOR ME."

Despite trying to run faster, jihyeon felt weak and dizzy but she pushed her weakness away, catching with chaejin who was now way much further from jihyeon. Every heavy step she took, jihyeon felt the need to take in more oxygen and the need for at least water. But they couldn't take any breaks until they've finished 9 rounds.

Jihyeon started to lean forward, walking slowly as she tried to catch her breath. But it felt as if there was no air around her.

And suddenly , her vision is blurred and then darkness takes over her. The last thing she heard was the loud thud she made when she fell onto the ground and screams calling for teachers.

"....jihyeon... "

Jihyeon heard a deep muffled voice beside her and soft sobbing. It doesn't sound like woohee or chaejin.

Slowly Opening her eyes to see the person, she sees the bratty prince beside her with a pained expression on his face.

Jihyeon doesn't know if she should be laughing or slapping him .

It was ironically funny seeing him so sad and desperate for her to wake up. Yet, she was angered as wonwoo was the one who caused all of this.

When wonwoo noticed that jihyeon was wide awake, he had a huge smile on his face and his eyes sparkled like diamonds . he was about to give her a big hug when he suddenly realized what he was about to do.

"Oh, you're awake." Wonwoo rolled his eyes, dropping his hands down to his sides.

"Well I wish I wasn't so I can stop taking care of your ass." Jihyeon snapped, making wonwoo jerk his head back.

"I'm sorry. But who said you could talk back to- "

"Shut up wonwoo. All because of you, I've been so tired and I have been failing in class. Don't you know I have to still cook for you and bring you out
While I balance with school? Do you know how tiring it is? Do you know how pissed I get when you steal all the food? Despite all this pampering, I'm still treated like a slave!"

Wonwoo had nothing to say back to jihyeon. He had a blank face on and he bit his lips In guilt as he absorbed everything jihyeon said.
She's right. He has been torturing her ever since he came out of the book. And even when jihyeon is at her limits, wonwoo still tests it, making her do more chores or making her cook ramen for him when he's lazy.
And when she has enough, wonwoo would always give excuses , winning them.

"And despite all the food, clothes and supplies I bought for you, I don't get any respect back. Even when I had a bad day at school, I would still bring you out for dinner. Why? Because I care for your stupid ass! " jihyeon yelled, slamming her fists on white duvets. 

Wonwoo leans forward, looking at jihyeon even though they weren't making eye contact.

"I'm sorry, jihyeon. I'm sorry for being a bitch to you. I'm sorry for calling you slave. I'm sorry for making you so tired that your out of energy. I'm sorry for stealing the food. I'm sorry for making you sleep downstairs. I'm sorry for everything I've done. I'll stop torturing you and I promise, I'll return you back the kindness you gave to me."

Jihyeon looks up at wonwoo, her eyes filled with tears.

" promise?  "

Wonwoo grabs onto jihyeon's hand, holding it tightly in his large hand. he intertwines their fingers together while he looks at their hands that were touching for the first time. Her hands felt so soft like silk and they were quite small which wonwoo admired since it was so cute when they held hands.

" I promise you, park jihyeon."

The two returned back home by train. They had many people staring at them on the train mainly because wonwoo had to piggyback jihyeon as she sprained her ankle when she fell and the other was because of wonwoo. There were many school girls on the train and they all had their eyes on wonwoo, whispering to their friends beside them at how hot wonwoo is.

Wonwoo didn't notice this as he was playing some game on the spare phone jihyeon lent him. but jihyeon did as some of the girls talked about jihyeon too, saying how lucky she is to have a hot boyfriend when wonwoo isn't even her boyfriend.

Jihyeon has to admit though, wonwoo is quite a hottie.

Especially when he has glasses on.

But besides that, jihyeon has no feelings for him.

When they reached home, wonwoo carries jihyeon up to her room; bridal style.

"Thank you."

"No problem, park jihyeon. "

"Don't call me park jihyeon. Just call me jihyeon."

"Nah. That's boring."

"Then what? " jihyeon crosses her legs, watching wonwoo think of another name for jihyeon. An imaginary light bulb pops out beside wonwoo's head when he finally got a nickname for jihyeon. Wonwoo leans closer to jihyeon, a smug smirk plastered on his face.

"How about 'princess' ? " wonwoo winks.

".....You're kidding me right? " jihyeon backs away , disgusted.

"I'm not. Its either I call you slave forever or you can let me call you princess. "

Before jihyeon could reply, wonwoo left the room, a little triumphant smile crawling up his lips.
