"Are you busy this Saturday?" Ja Rim asked me.

"No." I looked at her, "Shall I wait for you outside your house?"

"Yep." I already knew what she planned, Ah Ram's birthday would be this Sunday and we planned to throw her a party. Although this was meant to be a day where I and Ja Rim would buy the things needed for the big day, I found myself using it as a way to help Joo Young. Since he had made me promise to help him at least once.

After we agreed on what time we would meet, I stood up and left to see Joo Young in our classroom. He was sitting with the rest of his friends.

"Then how do you feel about her?" I heard Byung Hoon ask. I wasn't sure who he was talking to but Kyung Min and Joo Young were staring at Kyung Woo as if waiting for his answer.

Despite me protesting to eavesdrop on their conversation, my body moved against my will and suddenly interrupted their conversation.

"Are you busy this weekend?" I asked Joo Young.

"I don't think so." Joo Young coughed while the rest pretended to be casual and looked in other directions.

"What do you mean?" Byung Hoon slapped Joo Young, "We planned to meet at the PC room this Saturday."

"Oh yeah, that." Joo Young nodded, they seemed to be unease, definitely a sign that I had interrupted them in a serious conversation.

"Ja Rim-"

"What?" I haven't even finished talking before Joo Young looked at me with hopeful eyes, finally cutting the awkward tension.

"Ja Rim and I plan to go to the mall to buy things," I informed him.

"What time?"

"Around eight in the morning." I told him, "don't wait outside your house, just go to the place I will be texting you."

"Got it." He showed an okay sign before telling his friends he'll be canceling their plans and meet Ja Rim.

"Wow, Yoo Na." Kyung Woo was in slight shock as the rest looked at me. "I never thought you'd actually be helping him with Ja Rim."

"Neither did I." I shrugged before taking my seat.

Saturday has finally come, I texted Joo Young where we would be going an hour earlier so I would expect him to be there. Me and Ja Rim both went inside the mall and began looking for any useful things we could use for tomorrow.

I received a message from Joo Young telling me he could see us. Turning around and tried to look for him, I caught none, he must have hidden properly.

"Uh, Ja Rim," I called her as we took a stop. "How about we split up to save time."

"That could work but I would need your opinions."

"Let's split up for now and meet..." I looked over her shoulder and pointed at a nearby bakery shop. "There."

"Okay." She nodded, I sighed and rushed off looking around the mall for something Ah Ram would like. If there would be anything Ah Ram would be very happy about, that would be food. Shaking my head, I continue to look at the products each shop had. It would be better to bring her something at least related to food.
