Lovesick With A Heart Of Glass

Jaemin pov

It's been one week since Linh and Jeno have been weird.
Something happened.
I just don't know what.

Jeno doesn't want to hang out anymore.
Linh doesn't go to the library anymore.
My only friends are abandoning me.

I don't think I can get info from Jeno but perhaps Linh might spill some beans.
I'll ask her in class.

My plan was immediately doomed when I walked into our shared class and saw it.

Linh laying her head on Seonghwa's shoulder.

And not just that but everything about those two seems different. He doesn't usually sit next to her and last time I checked she was annoyed by him.

When did this happen?
When did they act like this?

I take a picture, and I might regret this but I send it to Jackson.
He responds immediately.

Who is that?

Linh duh

Yeah I know that
I mean the guy
I feel like I've seen him before :/

Seonghwa!

You're kidding right

No why would I

I'll kill him

No!

Fine.

Do you have Linh's friend Amy's number?

Do you like her?

Who?

Amy

No
I'm just worried about Linh

It's time to make a plan. I'll need a little help to make it work though...

Hi Amy it's Jaemin
Can you do some social
digging for me?

I'd be honored.

Throughout the whole class, I can't seem to focus on my work, because Lihn and Seonghwa are joined at the hip.
I don't like it one bit.

She would've mentioned if she had a boyfriend right? I mean most girls talk your ear off about theirs.

I do feel a little betrayed.

I remember asking her
"So are you two a thing?"
She nearly fell to the floor but said no.
At the time I was gonna ask her more about Seonghwa, but then Jeno texted me.

She acted weird around Jeno at first but they finally seemed to be cool together. Yet now they avoid each other at all costs.

Class is dismissed and I can't tell you how quickly I picked up my bag and raced down to Lihn.
"Hey Linh long time no see," I say with a slight bitterness.
Linh looks up and gives me a weak smile. Seonghwa is making no efforts to pack up his belongings, which is strange right? I mean class is over. He also conveniently has his arm across the top edge of Linh chair.
