Pressure, pressure & pressure.
They were retreating in loops as the SATs were only 6 months away.
"Why the long face?" Asim-chi asked, as Y/N was sulking on the desk with her arms covering her face.
"Look" Y/N's muffled voice came to life as she handed her mock test result to Asim-chi.
Asim-chi took the test paper and analyzed it sentence by sentence, her face dropped when she saw her result.
".....You got a 98%? Why're you crying?" Asim-chi inquired, but then realised it was Y/N. Of course, she'll cry over a 98%
"It's the same as before" Y/N sobbed as she got up and dabbed her eyes with her handkerchief,
Asim-chi scoffed "I got a 56% and I'm happy that I passed"
As the bell rang, signaling school's over. They both chuckled as they left the classroom and out of the school.
"By the way, you haven't forgotten about our Saturday plans at the library right?"
Asim-chi inquired as they strode, Y/N did forget about it, she was too consumed with all the studying stress, she was relieved that Asim-chi reminded her at the last minute.
"Oh, of course not!" Y/N lied, as she forced a smile
"You forgot didn't you" Asim-chi rolled her eyes playfully and chuckled
"I-" "C'mon Y/N, lying? really? You're not good at it" She chuckled.
That's the same thing Taehyung said about her.

"Dummy," Taehyung scoffed playfully
"You're not supposed to solve it that way!"
Taehyung was invited by Y/N's Mother every day now, and she would always be extremely benevolent towards him. Y/N knew Mrs. Choi was only being considerate towards him because his parents were Y/N's parents' business partners. Even though Y/N could tell her Mother was being kind towards Taehyung because of professional relationships, she still loathed her Mother for it.
"How're we supposed to do it then?" Y/N hissed in distressed
"You're supposed to use the method I taught you some while ago!" Taehyung raising his voice jokingly,
"What method was that again?" Y/N inquired, her voice coated with a dreadful amount of exhaustion. Taehyung was worried internally, but didn't fancy the idea of Y/N thinking that he cared for her, so he came up with an excuse.
"Ah, I'm too tired to teach you~" He yawned "Besides, you're too dumb" he added jokingly,
Y/N glared at him and closed her book, letting out a sigh.
"I'll be back tomorrow" Taehyung added, picking up his bag. Y/N's eyes widened
"You're leaving, already?" she inquired, glancing at her wrist-watch
"Aw, look who's missing me already" He teased,
"Don't flatter yourself" Y/N rolled her eyes
"I get it, nobody could resist my charms anyway" Taehyung winked condescendingly, before leaving and shutting the door behind him.
"That bastard." Y/N mumbled, slightly pink
