[ CLASS ]
"Wonbin's not coming to class."
I said to Junni.
"Like I'd care."
Junni said to me.
➤ I sat down next to Junni.
"I talked to Wonbin at the lockers....I tried to tell him to treat you more nicer but he didn't budge."
I said to Junni.
"That's not going to work on Wonbin, he's not nice to anyone....not even the people who care about him."
Junni said to me.
"Why's he like that?"
I asked Junni.
"Wonbin's life is very private."
Junni said to me.
"I understand."
I said to Junni.
"Good morning class, let's begin the lesson."
Teacher Lee said to everyone coming into the room.

[ WONBIN'S POV ]
➤ I left out of the school to meet Woojun at the boxing building.
"Hey kiddo, come in."
Woojun said to me.
"What's all this?"
I asked Woojun as I came into the door.
"It's some more training equipment, you are going to use them."
Woojun said to me.
"Let's get started then."
I said to Woojun.
➤ Woojun nodded and we got started training.
[ TIME SKIPS ]
➤ The more I boxed, the more I got drained out.
"Let's take a break."
Woojun said to me.
➤ I nodded and sat down on one of the chairs.
"Was that your girlfriend the other day?"
Woojun asked me while sitting next to me.
"No."
I said to Woojun.
"She seemed a little unsupportive."
Woojun said to me.
"You were listening to our conversation?"
I asked Woojun.
"I wasn't, you two were so loud, I could hear you yelling all the way inside the building."
Woojun said to me.
➤ I sighed.
"She acts like she's my mom and I don't like that."
I said to Woojun.
"It wasn't her choice that I'm doing boxing, I made the decision all by myself."
I said to Woojun.
"Does your parents even know you're boxing?"
Woojun asked me.
"I don't want to talk about my parents."
I said to Woojun.
"I'm sorry Wonbin, but you need your parents' approval for you to box, I meant to tell you that the other day-"
Woojun said to me but I cut him off.
"My adoptive parents won't even care what I'm doing so what's the use of telling them?"
I asked Woojun.
"Oh....Do you have a bad relationship with your adoptive parents?"
Woojun asked me.
"Like I said a few seconds ago, I don't want to talk about my adoptive parents."
I said to Woojun.
➤ Woojun sighed and nodded.
"Don't worry, my adoptive parents won't get angry that I'm boxing."
I said to Woojun.
➤ Woojun nodded.

[ MIN'S POV ]
[ LUNCH ]
➤ Minji, Isa, Junni and I were eating lunch and I saw Wonbin coming inside the cafeteria.
"Junni, Wonbin's here."
I said to Min.
➤ Junni looked back and saw Wonbin standing by the double doors.
"I will be right back."
Junni said to all of us.
➤ Me, Minji, and Isa nodded.
"Is her and her friend even friends, Min?"
Minji asked me.
"It's hard to explain, but I rather you ask Junni about it."
I said to Minji.
[ JUNNI'S POV ]
➤ I went to Wonbin.
"You're still upset?"
Wonbin asked me.
"Oh, you've noticed."
I said to Wonbin in an annoyed tone.
"Why are you still upset?"
Wonbin asked me.
"You already know the answer to that question."
I said to Wonbin.
"Junni, I don't feel like talking about this right now, I'm going to go skateboard."
Wonbin said to me.
➤ I wanted to stop Wonbin but I was too mad that I let him go skateboard outside.
➤ I sighed and went back to the table with Min, Minji, and Isa.
"Is everything alright?"
Isa asked me.
"Everything's fine."
I said to Isa.

[ AFTER SCHOOL ]
[ MIN'S POV ]
➤ I was on my way to the field but someone knocked down my things from my hands.
➤ I looked to see who it was and it was Joobin, also known as Eunseok protective cousin that gets on my nerves.
"What do you want Joobin?"
I asked Joobin.
"Why did you break up with Eunseok?!"
Joobin yelled at me.
"First of all, don't yell at me, second of all, ask Eunseok that question."
I said to Joobin.
➤ I was about to walk away from Joobin but he grabbed my arm tightly and stared down at me.
"Get your hands off of me!"
I yelled at Joobin.
"You broke his heart Min!"
Joobin yelled at me.
"Eunseok broke my heart first."
I said to Joobin.
➤ When I said that to Joobin, he had an angry facial expression on his face and he raised his hand up and swung it down quickly and I closed my eyes tightly shut because he was about to hit me.
➤ As I had my eyes closed, I didn't feel any pain coming from Joobin. I opened my eyes slowly and saw someone grabbing Joobin's hand preventing it from touching me. It was someone I didn't expect to come to defend me....Wonbin.
"Who are you?"
Joobin asked me.
"Someone that's best not knowing....get away from here or I will make you regret what happened here."
Wonbin said to Joobin.
➤ Joobin removed Wonbin's grip he had on his hand and Joobin stared at me before he left.
"T-Thank you."
I said to Wonbin nervously.
➤ Wonbin didn't say anything but just stared at me. He put down his skateboard and was about to roll away but I stopped him.
"Wait, Wonbin."
I said to Wonbin.
"What do you want?"
Wonbin asked me.
"Let me repay you."
I said to Wonbin.
"No need."
Wonbin said to me.
"Min, are you going to the field?"
Junni asked me while walking up to me.
➤ Junni looked at Wonbin and Wonbin looked at her. They didn't say anything to each other and it was so awkward.
"I'm leaving."
Wonbin said to me and Junni.
"Thanks again."
I said to Wonbin.
➤ Wonbin didn't say anything and left.
"What happened?"
Junni asked me.
"Wonbin surprisingly helped me."
I said to Junni.
"Oh really? I know me and Wonbin aren't talking right now but I feel like he should be the one to talk to me first."
Junni said to me.
"Maybe Wonbin just needs some time."
I said to Junni.
➤ Junni nodded.
"Hey Min, hey Junni."
Seunghan said walking up to me and Junni.
"Hey Seunghan, you have football practice today?"
I asked Seunghan.
"No, the coach said we don't have practice today."
Seunghan said to me.
"Wow, we have to practice for 8 hours today again."
I said to Seunghan.
"I'm cheering for you all, I have to get going but before I go, can I talk to Junni?"
Seunghan asked me.
"Sure, I will be on the field Junni."
I said to Junni.
➤ Junni nodded.
[ JUNNI'S POV ]
"What did you want to talk about?"
I asked Seunghan.
"What are you doing today after practice?"
Seunghan asked me.
"Um....nothing, why?"
I asked Seunghan.
"Do you want to go out for lunch?"
Seunghan asked me.
"Lunch?"
I asked Seunghan.
"Yes lunch, but it's okay if you don't want to go."
Seunghan said to me.
"Um....lunch sounds nice."
I said to Seunghan.
➤ Seunghan smiled.
"Can I have your number? You can call me when you're done practicing and I will pick you up."
Seunghan said to me.
➤ I nodded and gave Seunghan my phone number.
"I will see you later?"
Seunghan asked me.
➤ I nodded. Seunghan smiled and nodded then he left.
[ MIN'S POV ]
➤ As I was walking to the field, I saw Eunseok sitting on the bleachers by himself. I acted like I didn't see him and I walked past the bleachers but he yelled my name.
"Min! Wait! Can we talk?"
Eunseok asked me.
➤ Eunseok grabbed my hand and I turned back to look at him.
"What do you want?"
I asked Eunseok nonchalantly.
"I made a mistake, I'm sorry Min-"
Eunseok said to me but I cut him off.
"Eunseok, I don't want to hear your apology."
I said to Eunseok.
"I'm serious Min, I'm really sorry that I hurt you....me and Junni's relationship is one-sided it seems."
Eunseok said to me.
"And what do you expect me to say about that?"
I asked Eunseok.
"That you will go out with me again?"
Eunseok asked me.
➤ I removed Eunseok's hand from my hand and stared at him before saying:
"No, never again."
I said to Eunseok.
➤ I walked away from Eunseok and went to meet the girls.
[ TIME SKIPS ]
"Did you just talk to Eunseok?"
Minji asked me.
"Unfortunately, he told me if I wanted to go out with him again."
I said to Minji and Isa.
"Please tell me you said no?"
Isa asked me.
"Of course I said no to Eunseok, what he did was disrespectful and disgusting."
I said to Isa and Minji.
➤ Minji and Isa nodded.
"Hey girls."
Junni said walking up to us.
"Hey Junni, how was your talk with Seunghan?"
I asked Junni.
"It was good actually....he asked me if I wanted to get lunch with him."
Junni said to me.
"Oh really? That's so cute, what did you say?"
I asked Junni.
"I told him lunch sounds nice."
Junni said to me.
➤ I clapped excitedly for Junni and she smiled. A few seconds later, Isa walked away from us out of nowhere.
"Isa! Where are you going?!"
I yelled at Isa.
"I need some water."
Isa said to me.
"I will go speak to her."
Minji said to me.
➤ I nodded.
[ ISA'S POV ]
➤ I went to the vending machine and I wasn't really going to get water. I leaned on the wall next to the vending machine and ran my hands through my hair.
"Isa! Where are you?!"
Minji yelled.
➤ Minji spotted me and she walked in front of me.
"Are you okay?"
Minji asked me.
"No I'm not okay, I can't take this anymore."
I said to Minji.
"Can't take what anymore?"
Minji asked me.
"It's nothing, don't worry about it."
I said to Minji.
"Isa, I'm your friend....whatever's on your mind that's bothering you, you can tell me."
Minji said to me.
➤ I sighed before I spoke.
"I have a crush on Seunghan."
I said to Minji.
"You do? When did this happen?"
Minji asked me.
"It happened a long time ago."
Isa said to me.
"And you are just telling me now? Does Min know?"
Minji asked me.
"No, you're the only one I told."
I said to Minji.
"Every time I'm around Seunghan, he always talks about Junni."
I said to Minji.
"Why haven't you told Seunghan that you have a crush on him?"
Minji asked me.
"I've tried but the words never come out when I'm talking to Seunghan."
I said to Minji.
➤ Minji sighed.
"I don't know what I'm suppose to do now that he already has a crush on Junni."
I said to Minji.
"Well Isa, the only thing I could tell you is it's best if you tell Seunghan this before it's too late."
Minji said to me.
"How am I supposed to do that Minji? Every time I try to confess to Seunghan, I get goosebumps and I get nervous."
I said to Minji.
"Just try something else, confess to him in a different way without using your voice."
Minji said to me.
➤ I thought about what Minji said and she's right, I should confess my feelings to Seunghan without using my voice.
"What do you think I should do?"
I asked Minji.
"Give him a letter."
Minji said to me.
➤ I nodded.
[ MIN'S POV ]
[ TIME SKIPS ]
➤ We all took a 15 minute break and I went over to talk to Minji and Isa.
"You two were gone for a while, what happened?"
I asked Minji and Isa.
➤ Minji looked at Isa.
"Can I tell her?"
Minji asked Isa.
➤ Isa nodded.
"Isa has a crush on Seunghan."
Minji said to me.
➤ I spit out the water I was drinking.
"Are you serious? You have a crush on Seunghan?"
I asked Isa.
"Yes."
Isa said to me.
"When did this happen?"
I asked Isa.
"A long time ago."
Isa said to me.
"A long time ago as in??-"
I said to Isa but she cut me off.
"As in 2 years ago."
Isa said to me.
"You've liked Seunghan for 2 years?! Why haven't you told him?"
I asked Isa.
"I'm too scared okay? Talking to Seunghan isn't easy."
Isa said to me.
"But....Seunghan likes Junni."
I said to Isa.
"I already know that."
Isa said to me in an annoyed tone.
"Ah!....is that why you walked off when Junni was talking about Seunghan?"
I asked Isa.
"Kind of."
Isa said to me.
"I'm writing a letter to him."
Isa said to me.
"A confession letter?"
I asked Isa.
➤ Isa nodded.
"She's too scared to confess to Seunghan using her voice."
Minji said to me.
"So you're writing him a letter?"
I asked Isa.
"Yes, I think writing Seunghan a letter is an easier way to confess to him."
Isa said to me.
[ WONBIN'S POV ]
➤ I went to the music room in the school to play the electric guitar. It wasn't better than the one at the shop, but since the shop is closed today, I decided to the one at the school.
➤ As I walked in the music room, there were 2 girls sitting together at the piano. They flinched by the sound of the door opening. But they felt relief when they saw it was me and not a teacher. I ignored them and went to the other side of the room to play the electric guitar.
➤ I sat down on the chair and picked up the guitar, I grabbed one of the guitar picks and began to strum the guitar.
[ TIME SKIPS ]
➤ I was busy playing the guitar and I saw the girls that was in the room with me approach me. I stopped strumming and looked up at them.
"What do you want?"
I asked them.
"Can you play us a song? You play very nicely."
One of the girls said to me.
➤ I just stared at them not saying anything.
"You're very handsome, your face is so beautiful-"
One of the girls said but I stopped them.
➤ One of the girls reached their hand out to touch my face but I gently smacked her hand away.
"Don't touch me and both of you get lost."
I said to the girls.
"But-"
One of the girls said to me but I cut her off.
"Go away!"
I yelled at them.
➤ They both flinched at my yelling and walked away quickly. They exited the music room and I was by myself.
