My Idol Girlfriend

"Please give a round of applause to Mr. Lim."

Their teacher said The class gave him a standing ovation with claps and cheers, which gave him contentment after seeing how much they liked his performance.

He sat on the seat beside Wonyoung, which the latter didn't know was empty. After they calmed down, their teacher began his lesson.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Wonyoung whispered.

"Tell you what?"

He asked with his eyes blinking like a kid.

"You're an award-winning pianist."

She replied. Clark smiled and decided to let her taste her own medicine. He went closer to her and said,

"You said it yourself; we're not at the point where we talk about that stuff."

He smiled, which annoyed Wonyoung. She glared at him and shifted her focus back to their teacher. He chuckled after he saw how she reacted, which made him caress his chest to keep his fanboy heart from bursting.

Their classes ended after several hours had passed. Since classes are over, students are now leaving the school grounds to go home or play before going home.

While Wonyoung was busy fixing her things, Clark went close to her.

"What do you want?"

She asked if there was a She's surprised at herself that she acted that way.

"Why are you like that?"

Clark giggled.

"I just want to be friends, that's all."

He continued. Wonyoung remembered what Yujin said yesterday,

"It's not bad to be friends if he has clear intentions."

She sighed and then smiled.

Sure, we can be friends, but can I ask you a favor?"

She asked.

"What is it?"

Clark smiled. Wonyoung smiled at her before hitting him.

"Ouch! What was that for?"

He caressed his head after Wonyoung hit it with force. She's a petite girl, but she's not weak at all.

"That's for creeping up on me when I was practicing."

She said this before heading out.

"What? You haven't gotten over what happened two weeks ago?"

He whined. He took his bag and followed her outside. She's only a few steps ahead of him, it only takes a jog from him to catch up.

"Hey, Giant baby."

He called. Wonyoung stopped walking and turned around. Clark smiled after seeing her annoyed face again.

"Don't call me that; I'm not a baby anymore."

She said this before she turned her back and started walking again.

"Why not? It suits you."

He said. Wonyoung can't help but smile at Clark's bubbly side. They continued walking until they reached the front gate. Clark noticed that she was waiting for someone to come as she kept checking her phone.

Where are you waiting for someone?"

He asked.

"Who?"

He added.

"Wonyoungaa!"

A familiar voice called from the back. She turned around and saw Yujin calling for her. An automatic smile was seen on her face after seeing her niece. Clark nodded after confirming his assumption.

"Unnie!"

Wonyoung went to Yujin and hugged her.

"Hi, I'm Clark. Wonyoung's new friend."

Clark bowed down. Yujin bowed down, then looked at Wonyoung with a smirk.

"Yes, I heard about you. Wonyoung already told me your story."

Yujin said. This surprised both Clark and Wonyoung, and Wonyoung was embarrassed by the sudden revelation. Clark just smiled, seeing the two act like he sees them on camera.

Okay, okay, shall we go now?"

Yujin asked Wonyoung after they finished bickering with each other. Clark realizes they'll be leaving for practice and decides to leave ahead of them.

"Uhh, I'll be leaving then."

He said.

"Bye noona, bye giant baby."

He smiled before he started walking in the other direction. Wonyoung and Yujin both watched him walk towards the bus stop.

"Giant baby."

Yujin giggled before she started running.

"Unnie!"

Wonyoung shouted and started running to catch up to her.

30 minutes later...

Clark arrived at his house and saw his mom doing something on the couch while watching television.

"I'm home."

He said.

"What are you doing, mom?"

He asked.

"Knitting"

She answered. Clark nodded, then headed towards his room. He puts his bag on the table near his bed before going to the bathroom to wash himself. Five minutes later, he went out of the bathroom looking fresh and clean. He went to his phone and looked at the clock.

"6 PM. Should I finish all my schoolwork?"

He asked himself. He sat on the table and began rummaging through his bag. He placed everything on the table, but before he started answering, he grabbed his phone and went to his music app. He hovered over the artist menu and clicked on IZ*ONE. He played the song Airplane," which is one of his favorites.

Throughout the session, he can't help but smile every time he hears Wonyoung's voice in every song that's playing. He's not just drawn to her amazing visuals but also to her outstanding voice. It's not the best vocal in K-pop, but it is indeed one of the best.

The session finished after two hours; it was perfect timing before he got called for dinner.

Meanwhile, Wonyoung just finished dinner with her mom's cooking. It never gets old; she thinks that her mom's cooking is still the best. She went to the living room and watched YouTube on their television. Not long after, she feels sleepy and decides to go to sleep. She bids good night to her parents, and then proceeds to go to her room.

She lay down on her bed and checked her phone one last time before sleeping. She saw Yujin's message and smiled after reading it.

"I didn't think you would befriend Clark."

"If he is a good person, then you're lucky to have a guy friend who's not after your fame."

She locks her phone and puts it on top of the table beside her bed.

"Unnie is right; I'll be lucky if he has clear intentions."

She thought before closing her eyes, sending herself into the dream world.
