"Hey."
Great. Just the person I was avoiding the entire day.
"What do you want?" I asked with a low, but clearly annoyed voice.
"Your thank you didn't sound sincere yesterday. I even have a frostbite on my check because I gave you my helmet. You should be sincere when thanking someone." he said.
I slowly looked up to him. Gosh, there is no denying the fact that he is really handsome. He has some really sharp features, the beauty mole on his nose and the beauty mark under his left eye, his voice... And then there is a slightly red mark on his right cheek.
"Areum?" I blinked a few times and then shook my head in embarrassment. "I know that I'm handsome so I'll let you stare for a few more seconds." He added with a smirk.
He just said my name.... And that smirk.
"Thank you and sorry." I quickly apologized and I put my head down on the table again. As cocky as he is, I hoped he didn't see my embarrassed red face, but I was also hoping for him to leave me and that no one sees him with me.
I didn't even know why I apologized since he chose not to wear a helmet. Not my fault.
"Oh Sunghoon... and you?"
Great. Someone saw us. Just great. And just to make it worse, it's Lee Heeseung. The schools fuckboy.
"You has a name, Heeseung. It's -"Sunghoon got cut off. "Areum. Kim Areum." I looked up, recognizing the voice. It had been a while since I heard my name come out from his lips.
Shim Jaeyun. Also known as Jake Sim.
"Yeah, that's right Jake." Sunghoon said with a bit of a surprised look on his face. I guess he didn't expect them to know who I was? But I get that. I literally look like I have no friends. Which I don't. And I'm so socially awkward. Literally zero social skills whatsoever.
"So the two of you are... I don't know, a thing?" Jake asked, alternating his pointing finger between me and Sunghoon.
Every time he caught my eyes, he would give this look. This look that shows shame and a bit of sadness. But I quickly avoided them. He ain't fooling me.
"No we are not. We are friends." Sunghoon replied nonchalantly. As if it were nothing. As if we actually were friends and everyone already knew it.
Friends.
Something I haven't heard anyone call me in a while. Not even Jungwon thinks I'm a friend. He treats me like a sister. But friends? I was friend with Jisoo and she betrayed me. Same with Jake. Jay was also my friend, but now I don't know what we are. We just faded away. And I have no one to blame but me.
