Could Love be Hard as Math?

Chapter 13

Chaeyoung POV

After I'm finish help Tzuyu with bowl, I look at the other lane as my eyes searching for certain person. But, I can't find her. Did she go somewhere? I walk to Jihyo and Sana but my eyes still searching around looking for her.

"Hmm, where is Mina?" I asked them.

"Oh, Mina already went home. She said she doesn't feel well." Jihyo said as she sit on the chair drinking soda.

"Oh." That's the only thing I could said.

Then, I pull out my phone and find her number. I called her but she didn't pick up the call. I keep call but it same. I decided to text her.

Chaeyoung : where did you go?

Me : home.

Chaeyoung : are you walking? Wait for me. I will take you home.

Me : no thanks. Already home.

Chaeyoung : if you that fast, you should be in Olympics team Mina.

Me : I got a ride. Stop worrying.

Chaeyoung : why did you leave?

Me : I didn't feel good. Beside, I don't want to hang out. You the one forced me. Just have fun with Tzuyu.

Chaeyoung : does this have to do with me ditching you? I was only trying to help your friend learn to bowl.

Mina : No. Why would you think so? I'm glad you're hanging out with her. You should do that everyday instead of bothering me. In fact, you should might as well date her. I will be the most happiest person for you guys. I'm going to sleep. Don't wake me up and don't come to my houses.

I try to call her, but her phone already off. Hmm, did I do something wrong? Is she okay? What if she sick? Should I go to her house and look for her. Hmm, but she told me don't disturb her. Maybe I should give her time to rest. I sigh. Then, I decided to call my friend and they gladly to hang out with the ladies. But, my mind keep remember to my tutor. I just hope she's okay.

No one POV

The Monday after Mina angry texted Chaeyoung, she still went to tutor him. Mina thought it would be really awkward and she was right. Chaeyoung apologise to Mina as he thought he forcing Mina to hanging out with him while she was on period. Well, its not like Mina on the period but she didn't want to cause anymore confusion and Mina just let it slide. Its more easier than to explaining her hammering in her chest.

That day, Tzuyu told Mina about homecoming. How they slow danced to a song together. How Tzuyu said it the most romantic thing ever. Then, how they spend time in bowl, how Chaeyoung treat her and so on. Since then, Mina haven't had any hammers whenever she's around Chaeyoung. For Tzuyu sake, she think.

The two months that followed were bizarre beyond explanation. Chaeyoung and his friend now always sit with Mina and her friend all the time at lunch. The three musketeers always invite Mina and her friend to parties, movies, bowling and a bunch of activities. And of course Mina would decline it first and after being beg or dragged along she had to comes with them. Mina just could only guess Chaeyoung doing this all because he already starting to have feelings for Tzuyu. And she feel happy for them.
