KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE, AND YOUR ENEMIES CLOSER
I was inside the bathroom, have no idea if I should be mad at Logan for paying Eun Byeol's mom to get me the solo or maybe accept it and say thank you later.
I smiled at the mirror. "Min Seola, this is for you." I sighed and opened the door.
"Ya, Hera!" I turned around to see the driven-mad-psycho Ha Eun Byeol.
What now?
"Aish, Eun Byeol...What do---"
A hand went across my face. She slapped me, this mf slapped me! I look up to her with wide eyes.
"Know your place." She says.
"Ya Eun Byeol!" Minyuk's voice echoed in the hallway. He went in front of me, he stood facing Eun Byeol. "Are you crazy?"
"Why do you keep defending--"
"Why did you slap her? She didn't do anything to you! She won the solo fair and square, she didn't even got to practice like you! Why slap her?" Minyuk yelled at Eun Byeol.
I was dumbfounded...Why would he help me?
I held Minyuk's arm, gesturing him to stop. "I'm okay..." I told him.
"Let's go." Minhyuk grabbed my bag and hold my wrist to leave.
I stopped walking and Minhyuk looked at me in confusion. "Why did you stop? Did you left something?"
I looked at him and took my bag from him. "Thank you, but I'm completely fine. It's true, my parents bribe Cheon Seo Jin so, I don't deserved the solo but deserved the slap..."
He was left speechless. "But still, you sang beautifully in front of the class...You still deserved it."
"What do I deserve? The slap?" I asked.
His eyes widened. "No, no, no, no..." He kneeled. "I didn't meant that! I meant is that you deserve the Solo!" He said chuckled nervously.
I laughed at his adorable reaction. I also kneeled to face him and he keeps looking away. "I'm just kidding, I knew what you meant." I laughed and he also laugh.
"Of course, of course. I will keep your secret about the bribing, everyone does it here so, it's okay." He smiles at me like a sunshine and held my hand, reassuring that he'll keep it.
"Why are you 2 kneeling about?" We heard Seok-kyung's who is by the way standing, arm-crossed along with the other members of Little Hera club minus Eun Byeol.
"Are you 2 praying for something or what? Kenji chuckled.
"You 2 look crazy..." Seok-hoon added.
"What are you 2 laughing about?" Jenny look at us with disgusted face.
Minhyuk and I looked at each other and quickly stood up. I dusted-off my knees. "There's a dirt on your pants." I told Minhyuk and he obeyed. "Oh, your bag." He handed it to me. We both looked at them with nervous smile and chuckled.
"We...ah...we...ah..." Minhyuk stuttered. "I dropped something and he helped me find it." I said and Minhyuk nodded at me.
"What did you dropped?" Seok-hoon asked.
Aish, just buy the freaking excuse Joo Seok-hoon!
"I...ah...Dropped something, of course..." I scratched my head. "She dropped her earring!" Minhyuk said. "Right! Right...My earring..."
"But...You're not wearing any Hera..." Kenji pointed out. I mentally slapped my face.
"Ya, stop asking questions! This isn't an examination!" Minhyuk whined beside me. "My brain hurts..."
I laughed at his cute, adorable, sweet, charming face.
"Brains don't hurt...It's the head." I told him. "Ya, I thought you're on my side." He said.
3rd POV
"Mom, why do she get the solo?" Eun Byeol is in her mother's office.
"Why not?" Seo Jin flips the page and signed on it. "We should give a proper welcome for our newcomer right?"
"Why? She doesn't need that!"
Seo Jin sighed and look at her daughter.
"Grandfather will be there, I just lost the chance." Eun Byeol plopped on the sofa crossing her arm.
Seo Jin placed her pen on the table. "There are many fish in the sea."
"Why are you being like this?"
"Because...I have better plans for her for that day."
Hera's POV
I'm inside the elevator, busy with my phone going up to the 99th floor when the elevator stopped. I went to the mall a while ago to buy what I'm going to wear for the upcoming event.
Did you think that rich people orders their maid or assistant to buy it for them" Nu-uh that ain't me, if I want to buy something, I'll go.
I bought a Yellow, laced and off-shoulders and some accessories. I also bought an earrings.
The door opened revealing Jenny and Minhyuk, they were laughing then Jenny's smile dropped when she saw me.
"Hera!" Minhyuk greeted and I smiled at him, I put my phone inside my pocket. "Where you 2 going?" I asked.
"Why would we tell you?" Jenny scoffed and Minhyuk entered and Jenny didn't.
"Are you not coming?" Minhyuk asks.
"Not with her in the same Elevator." She crossed her arms.
"Why? Come on, Hera won't bite...Will you?" Minhyuk sarcastically asked me.
"Of course not." I told him and we both laughed but Jenny still glares at me.
"Fine, I'll leave." I told them.
"Eh?" Minhyuk said. I exited the elevator Jenny stares at me.
"Go on." I gestured her. She look at me from head-to-toe and entered. I have my paper bags on my side. Then, an idea popped in my head.
I held Jenny's hand. "Wait."
"What?" She asked annoyed trying to get away from me. I hand her my small paper bag that contains the expensive earrings.
"For you..." I told her. "What are you trying to do?" She asks suspiciously.
I already tamed the Joo twins, Kenji and Minhyuk...Now, I need you to be close with me.
"A gift from me." I replied and gently pushed her inside the elevator.
"Wait! Ya!--" She yelled. I winked at Minhyuk and he winked back then...The door closed.

(The Event)
"Do you really need to come with me Oppa?"
Logan smiled. "Of course, I should come with you because I cannot be there, I can't stay and watch there so, I'll just use this time to be with you. You look beautiful today Hera."
I sighed. "Thank you...For everything." I return the smile. My pretend mom and dad is in the other car, we stopped in secluded place so I could switch cars to not cause any rumors when I arrived at the school.
"Time's up." Logan sighed and help me with my gown when I came out of the car. "Make sure to send me a video." Logan told Ms. Kim and she nodded.
"See ya!" I waved at him and entered the car.
We're in the middle of the road when...
