"Okay, thank you Mr Jangjun" Joochan accidentally said 'Mr Jangjun'.
"Haist, just call me Jangjun then. It's hard to change people to start calling me James Lee" Jangjun sighed.
"But I like Jangjun more than James Lee, because it's your real name" Joochan said.
"So, what's wrong with James Lee?" Jangjun asked.
"If you use James Lee as your name, it means you are trying to be someone else. If you use Jangjun, you are just being the real you.." Joochan said. Jangjun nodded. He totally agreed with Joochan. He felt terrible to not thinking about that before.
"Bye Mr Jangjun.." Joochan bowed.
"Bye Joochan. Happy birthday once again" Jangjun said. Joochan smiled.

Joochan entered the car.
"Wow.. you got many presents?" Haru said.
"Yes. My friends threw a party for me so they gave me some birthday gifts.." Joochan said.
"Wah! Appa's friends threw him a party too.." Haru told Joochan. Joochan smiled while fastened his seatbelt.
"How was your result, Joochan?" Haru asked Joochan. Joochan was just silent.
"Joochan.." Sungyoon called his name when he didn't respond to Haru's question.
"I don't get a good result.." Joochan looked down.
"Why?" Haru asked.
"I got the second rank.." Joochan replied in sorrow. Haru looked at Sungyoon and Sungyoon looked at Haru.
"I am sorry, I didn't get the first rank this time.." Joochan's eyes got teary. His tears fell down. Haru looked at Joochan. Sungyoon saw Joochan was crying from the back mirror in his car.
"It's okay. You've tried your best. Keep up your good work next time so you can 'take' your first rank back" for the first time in forever, Sungyoon advised Joochan. Haru looked at Sungyoon. She was shocked to see Sungyoon was kind to Joochan today. Joochan looked at Sungyoon.
"Are you proud of me even though I don't get the first rank this time?" Joochan got his courage to ask Sungyoon and Haru that question.
"Of course. We saw your hardwork. You've studied, you've done your revision, you've done your best but you don't archive your target. It's okay. At least you try rather than hoping for get a best result while you don't have effort to archive your goals" Sungyoon said. Haru smiled and nodded. She was totally agreed with Sungyoon. Joochan stopped to cry. He smiled when Sungyoon said that.
"Thank you Ahjussi. Thank you Omma. I'll try harder to get the best result.." Joochan said. Sungyoon and Haru smiled.
"Good boy.." Haru complimented Joochan.

They went to a pizza restaurant. Joochan sat next to Sungyoon. Sungyoon chose to sit next to Joochan. Joochan was smiling all the time like someone in love when Sungyoon sat next to him.
