Love; Lock It! | Treasure

EIGHT; Agony

"Ahhh! I hate this. I hate her." Sihmin pulls her hair out of frustration after screaming her lungs out at the rooftop of their university.

The door opens with a screech. Sihmin turns around to see her friends rushing towards her. Hyunsuk approaches Sihmin and engulfs her in a hug after which the girl totally breaks down.

"Are you okay?" Jaehyuk asks, worried for Sihmin.

"Why does it have to be them? It hurts so much." Sihmin cries out. The guys were heartbroken upon seeing Sihmin like this. Jaehyuk caresses her hair while the younger ones mutter words of comfort.

"Where's Kyu?" Sihmin asks as soon as she calms down. All of the boys avoid her gaze. Their silence gives away the answer to Sihmin as she chuckles bitterly, agonizing over her fate.

The Moons

"So I didn't come for a day and this much happened." Jihoon shakes his head at the boys, still not believing the fact that a member of Moons was dating a Suns' member.

"Nori shouldn't have done that." Asahi adds monotonously.

"Exactly, she shouldn't have. Out of all the Suns, she chose that hot headed Junkyu. I mean she could've chose Junghwan or Jaehyuk, they're better." Jeongwoo complains causing Yoshi to smack him.

Jeongwoo utters a quick apology while others glare at him. Mashiho eyes Haruto who was zoning out in a corner.

"Haruto?" Haruto snaps back to reality as Mashiho calls him. Everyone's attention diverts to Haruto who just stares back at them silently.

"Aren't you going to say something?" Mashiho questions. Haruto raises a brow, not getting his point. Mashiho clicks his tongue, irritated by the younger one's behavior. Yoshi notices the tension.

"He meant to ask what's your take on the Nori-Junkyu issue?" He clears out Mashiho's question quickly before anything else happens.

The least all of them wanted was to create a scene among themselves. Haruto stands up abruptly.

"I'm tired." He voices out these words and exits Jeongwoo's room without answering Mashiho's question.

"What's with him?" Asahi asks Jihoon innocently in the same way as a toddler asks his mother. Jihoon just heaves out a sigh and shrugs.

The Next Day

Sihmin was lying on her bed since the morning. She took the day off, not wanting to face the newest and hottest couple of their university. She even skips the breakfast and ignores the uncountable calls and messages from her friends. A sudden knock causes her to snap out of her trance.

"Didn't I tell everyone to not disturb me?" She thinks a bit annoyed.

"Come in." She groans. As soon as the known person enters, she rolls her eyes.

"Is this how you're going to welcome me?" Jaehyuk sulks as he plops himself on the couch placed in front of Sihmin's bed. Sihmin rests her back against the head board.

"What are you doing here?" She questions back clearly not in the mood. Jaehyuk wipes a non existent tear dramatically.

"You know how worried all of us were for you. You weren't responding. We thought you died or something." He whines trying to act cute which causes Sihmin to chuckle.

"Don't do that, you're looking cheap." Sihmin scrunches her nose while Jaehyuk continues to do aegyo. He stands up and attacks Sihmin with aegyo causing the girl to giggle.

"Stop doing that, dork." Sihmin shakes her head as he takes a place in front of her. A minute passes and their laughter dies down.

"I'm sorry for worrying all of you. I was just tired of all the shit going on. You know well how I'm feeling." Sihmin's eyes turn glossy as she vents out to Jaehyuk.

Being no more able to see her broken, Jaehyuk quickly embraces the saddened girl. Out of all the Suns, Jaehyuk was the only one who knew about Sihmin's feelings for Junkyu. For others, the reason of Sihmin's reaction was Junkyu and Sihmin's strong platonic bond but only Jaehyuk knew that there was more to it.

"It's okay Mina, things like these do happen." He whispers to her while the latter nods trying her best to control her jumbled up emotions. They let go of each other.

"Don't mind me asking but have you taken a look in the mirror? You're looking like a damsel in distress." Jaehyuk snorts as he observes the disheveled girl sitting in front of him.

"You didn't have breakfast either. Did you?" He raises a brow only to be answered with an embarrassed looking Sihmin.

"I'll take that as a no, that's why I brought takeout. Now hurry up and freshen up. I wasn't able to eat anything in the college because of you." Jaehyuk stands up and drags Sihmin with him.

"You have 10 minutes, I'll be waiting in the dining hall." He pushes the girl in her washroom and rushes out after closing the door. Sihmin breaks into a smile. Even if it was for a little time, atleast someone was able to take her mind off from Junkyu and Nori.

3rd Person POV

"Here you go." Junkyu plops beside Nori on the bench while handing her a cup of chocolate chip ice cream. She mutters a quick thanks. The park wasn't crowded hence a perfect place for both of them to talk things out.

"Baby say something. Why are you so quiet today?" Junkyu asks as he notices Nori's long face. Nori stops eating her ice cream.

"Kyu, don't you think we did our friends wrong?" Nori bites her lip stressed about the fact that her friends were upset with her.

She didn't get the proper time to explain things to them at college. When she tried to approach them, they just ignored her. Junkyu wraps his arm around her shoulders.

"To date someone you like is not doing anyone wrong at all. Our friends are just taken aback. We'll have to explain ourselves to them. Everything will get back to normal then, I promise." Junkyu tightens his grip around Nori while the latter nods, passing him a smile.

Junkyu believed that their friends were going to forgive them sooner or later but were things really going to get back to normal for The Suns and Moons?
