" jae jae! summer break starts tomorrow, any idea for outings? " " no, and stop calling me jae jae. it's embarrassing " jaemin covered his face and ran off. " oh romeo! please wait for your juliet! " she chased after him. " seriously stop, it's really embarrassing "

" embarrassed of your own sister? hmm mean. " jae-ha scoffed as he turned the opposite way and started walking. " jae-ha i was joking. jae-ha!! she's mad.. " jaemin then took out his phone and called someone.

" what do you want? i just left " jae-ha rolled her eyes. " i'll buy your painting supplies this month. " " deal. "

" help me. i'm gonna die " do-ha said as he hold jisul arms. " what? who's killing you? " " my heart.. oh yeah! i'm gonna confess to jisung today! soo scaryy "

" are you sure? " jisul asked as if she knew something is up. " yep! hopefully he's going to accept my confession because i will lose my mind if he doesn't " " if you say so.... "

" thank you for helping me sort this thing. i love you guys soo much! " " that.... sounded really fake but okay. " jae-ha answered as she followed the rest to hide behind a tree.

" oh jisung! over here!! " " hi do-ha, where's the rest? i thought we'll all be going to mark house to plan for our break? " jisung looked around only to see the public.

" jisung... we've been friends for so long and i couldn't keep this to myself. the rest probably knows about it but i don't think you do. " do-ha took a deep breath and looked at him in the eye. " i-i like you. not as a friend but in a romantic way. "

there wasn't any words coming from the both of them. for a few minutes things were quiet. they just stared at each other.

" is this.. some kind of joke? " " what? no it isn't, i'm confessing. cant you see? " " uhm... i don't have any feelings for you. in fact anyone, i don't really want to be in a relationship with anyone. not at the moment but yeah. " jisung scratched his nape.

" any other reason? " " uh.. i'm not good ugh girls and the only girls i'm close to is you, jae-ha, mina and jisul. soo relationship aren't for me. sorry " jisung bent down to bow and walked away.

" finally getting rejected..... why am i crying? what the heck? " do-ha said as she wipe her tears away after seeing the rest coming up to her.

" don't cry!! " jae-ha comforted her into a hug. " i knew this would happen. but it's alright " jisul said which made everyone looked at her. " what do you mean? " " considering jisung behaviour it was really obvious that she would get rejected. "
