Dimple || Yang Jungwon

Five

Jihyo jumped on her bed. The school day had been exhausting since they had Physical Exercise that day.

It had already been two weeks since they had been asked to start working on the presentation. It was going nowhere. Jungwon didn't show up and Sunghoon couldn't help much but he gave Jihyo company as she went through all the books she could. She felt anxious as she felt they would not have a presentation to show their teacher.

But for now, she was tired.

She stared at the ceiling as she lay on her bed. Her mind was empty. She was too tired to think, when an old memory came to her head.

"Are you going to the class trip this weekend?" Jihyo asked

"Of course I am!" The boy said with a jump.

"It's going to be so fun!" She clapped with excitement

"Yeah...Your entire class is coming right?"

"Yeah. Everyone can't wait" The girl exclaimed.

"Oh then I can introduce you to my best friend from the taekwondo team"

"Is he from my class? Maybe I know him. What's his name?"

"His name is Ju-"

"Kang Jihyo!!! Come down and eat dinner before I make you chew on rubber!!" Jihyo's elder sister shouted.

"I don't know what she means, her food is rubber" Jihyo said to herself.

"Heyyyy!!! I heard thattt!!! Do you even know how busy I am!!! Why can't you just appreciate my cooking a little more?!! You should be thankful that-"

"Yeah yeah I'm coming down" Jihyo said as she got out of her bed with groans.

Classes had just ended. Jihyo watched the other students running to enjoy their Friday evenings. She was on her way to the library for her weekly meeting with her partner who was not actually her partner.

"Hi bro" She greeted Sunghoon with no enthusiasm.

"Hi man. You look like someone stole candy from you"

"What do you mean? Anyways, I'm just anxious. The presentation is due in three weeks and we're getting nowhere. If I could just get a hold of Jungwon somehow-"

"One second, let me take this call" Sunghoon said as he picked up the incoming call. "Yeah Jungwon. I'm already here. Yeah I'll discuss and tell you everything."

"Is that Jungwon?" Jihyo whispered to the boy, to which the boy nodded.

"Give me the phone once, let me take this opportunity to talk to him, please" she whispered again.

Sunghoon then handed his phone to the girl as Jungwon was telling him how he has sorry that he pranked him by giving him a jelly steak instead of a real steak and that he was thankful that he still went to discuss the presentation in his place.

"Yang Jungwon. This is me, Kang Jihyo. Please please please come over and discuss the presentation. It's due in three weeks, I know that you have something against friends but I'm just your presentation partner I'm not going to be your friend or anything if you want please please please just help finish this presentation please" the girl begged but the only sound she heard after that was the sound of the call ending.
