I wasn't sure if I should laugh or get annoyed at the reason for their fight.



"I'm not flirting with your girlfriend! She's the one who keeps coming up to me!" Yunji shouted at the guy he was fighting earlier.



"My girlfriend told me that you were the one approaching her!" the other guy retorted, clearly agitated. I closed my eyes, feeling frustrated, while our principal just frowned. He wasn't that old, probably in his 30s, and kinder than the guidance counselor, so I thought it was better to bring them here.



"And you just believe her? What the hell—"



"Enough," Mr. Principal said, holding back a laugh. He turned to me and raised an eyebrow. "Did they damage anything?" he asked. I glanced over at Haruki, who was standing to the side. They shook their heads, so I did the same. 



"No, sir," I answered softly.



"Where's the girl they were fighting over?" Mr. Principal asked. The two boys exchanged glances.



"I think she left—" Yunji started, but the girl from earlier suddenly walked in, still looking upset. "Clara!" the guy who fought with Yunji called out. Yunji just rolled his eyes and looked away.



"Seriously? It was you?" Aki muttered in disbelief. I shushed her, and she quickly fell silent. The girl was the one who had been crying on the sidelines earlier.



"I'm so sorry, Yunji! You got dragged into our mess—"



"Why are you apologizing to him, Clara?!" The guy was clearly upset, pointing aggressively at my brother.



"If you don't put that finger down, I'll break it," I warned. He immediately lowered his hand and sat up straight. Yunji smirked, looking smug, while Mr. Principal just watched the whole thing like he was enjoying it.



"Sir, I'm really sorry! Budoy was bothering me, and I didn't know how to make him stop. So, I told him I had a new boyfriend and said it was Yunji. I'm sorry, Yunji," she explained, almost begging my brother for forgiveness. Budoy's expression was one of shock.



"What a name, 'Budoy,'" Aki whispered, making me nudge her. The two of them snickered, and I had to look away to keep myself from laughing too.
