Chapter Seven


The week passed like a blur, you did what you always do at camp, train, attend different classes, capture the flag, visit Yena who would always shoo you away because she doesn't want you to see the fireworks they are working at. Sword fighting, but this time with different partner because your usual sparring partner is not around. Hanging out at the Cliffside, alone.

Your week have been the same except it wasn't really the same, you know it. There's something that is missing. Deep inside you know why, you miss Minjoo and your usual bickering, the random talks and your night hangout at the Cliffside, her subtle teasing during meals. Whenever, you enter the Dining Pavilion you unconsciously scan the place expecting to catch her looking at you with her teasing smile.

It doesn't make any sense why you miss her like that, when her other friends are just going on with their own camp life. For Zeus' sake she's gone for a week and yet you miss her like you haven't seen her for a long time. You convince yourself that, it is just because you've been hanging out with her too frequently, yes that must be the case nothing more and nothing less.

Today is 4th of July, the day Minjoo said she will be back but you still haven't seen her. Not that you've been looking for her, nope definitely not. You just happened to be loitering around the camp searching for no one, just observing. Passing by the shooting range you saw Wonyoung practicing alone.

You stood at the far-right side of the range and watch as she hit the bull's eye for the fifth time. She nocks two arrows and release it, you clapped when both arrows hit the bull's eye of two different targets.


"Wow," you said, still clapping your hands "your archery skill just keeps on improving"

"Didn't see you there," she said, nocking another arrow "And thank you, I've been practicing" she added, releasing another set of arrows.

"I can see that," you replied, nodding your head when the arrows hit the bull's eye again.

Wonyoung turned to you and smiled proudly

"Did you planned something for today?" you ask, sitting on one of the benches.

"Nothing in particular," Wonyoung replied, walking towards you "Why did you ask?" she added, quirking her brow when she's already standing in front of you.


You just looked at her, noticing how sweaty she is you throw her the towel you've been carrying since earlier. You don't even know why you carries that towel in the first place. Wonyoung catch it with ease and sat beside you placing her bow between the two of you.


"Nothing," you answered, her question nonchalantly "Just asking"

"Let me guess," she started, with an amuse smile "you're bored" she said, chuckling.

"How can you say that?" You countered, laughing lightly at her comment.


You find it slightly offending, but also ridiculous that she thinks you want to spent time with her just because you're bored.


"Well, you've been wandering around here at camp for a week now," she shrugged "you seem like a puppy who lost her owner ever since Ms. Head Counselor left"


Your smile fade at what she said, Wonyoung and Minjoo have started to get close during the past months though not as close as you and Minjoo. Now, you and Wonyoung can talk about Minjoo without her getting upset, it actually started to get better when you spent time with Wonyoung more. Though this is the first time that she teases you with Minjoo.
