"So Haruto and you are just pretending to date and the real reason is to get Junkyu and Nori back, respectively." Jaehyuk repeats Sihmin's words after they start making sense to him. Sihmin nods sheepishly.
He bites his lip and turns his face to look at the sky, contemplating about this matter. Both of them were sitting on a bench at the rooftop of their university. The area was empty making it the perfect place for them to vent.
"I've always supported you, Sihmin. But don't you think this is a bit much? You should just accept the fate, there's no use of fighting it." Jaehyuk advises in hopes of convincing his best friend to rethink.
"Please, don't be a grandpa. I've already decided to fight and get back what is mine. Discussion's over." Sihmin rolls her eyes and rests her back on the bench. Jaehyuk sighs in defeat.
"Then promise me that no one will get hurt in this. Not even you." Sihmin snorts and holds Jaehyuk's hand.
"Are you afraid that I'll end up killing Nori?" She tries to joke but raises her hands in surrender after getting a stern look from Jaehyuk in reply.
"Okay boss, I'll not hurt anyone physically. Can't promise about the mental one." Sihmin promises, linking her pinky finger with Jaehyuk's.
Sihmin's will power was what Jaehyuk admired the most. Jaehyuk wanted to confess but he didn't after Sihmin told him about her feelings for Junkyu. Sihmin had a hint about Jaehyuk's liking towards her but she always waived it off, saying that they were just friends.
Call Jaehyuk selfish but after seeing Junkyu dating Nori, he thought maybe he had a chance with Sihmin but boy was he wrong. Sihmin was an inflexible person and her friends knew that well.
She had a habit of doing whatever she wanted without thinking much about the consequences which scared Jaehyuk. He just didn't want Sihmin's approach to be the reason behind her resentment someday.
3rd Person POV
"It's not feeling right." Nori mutters as Junkyu unloads their trolley at the counter.
"I told you, it wasn't a good idea to experiment with coke and mentos. You didn't listen to me. I'll just put these back now." Nori slaps his hand away before he could even touch the soda bottles. Junkyu passes her a perplexed look.
"Don't you dare touch them. I'm talking about Sihmin and Haruto, silly. Them dating doesn't seem right." Nori expresses her frustration as they pay for their goods at the counter and exit the convenience store.
"Well to be honest, I was also concerned for Sihmin because of your freak of a friend but it's their choice at the end. We'll have to support them no matter what." Nori halts after listening to Junkyu causing him to stop as well.
"Does Haruto seem like a freak to you? As if your bratty best friend is any better." Nori mocks him.
"Sihmin is definitely better than that playboy. She is glamorous and has high morales. Watanabe is really fortunate." Junkyu rebukes causing Nori's face to contort in fury.
"Then go to her and be fortunate as well." Nori snaps and walks away, leaving her boyfriend behind. Junkyu scratches his nape.
"What did I even say to her?" He sulks and chases after his girlfriend.
Meanwhile
"What? Stop giving me death stares. It's not like I committed a sin or something." Haruto avoids her gaze while Sihmin scoffs standing in front of him.
"You still have the audacity to say this after not only dancing with me when I wasn't in my sound mind but also hiding it from me. Did you forget that we're enemies in real life not lovers?" Sihmin shouts the last sentence startling the boy sitting on her front porch.
"Yah! Crazy woman! I was also tipsy at that time. Don't blame the whole thing on me. And as if you weren't enjoying it." Haruto shouts back causing Sihmin to look at him in disbelief.
"How dare yo-" Haruto's phone begins to ring interrupting Sihmin mid sentence.
He mouths to Sihmin that it was Nori, thanking his luck as this call was the only way to save him from Sihmin's wrath right now. Judging Haruto's expression, Sihmin gets curious. She sits down beside Haruto and places her ear on the backside of his phone only to be greeted by Nori's whimpers.
"Ruto, Junkyu fought with me because of your Sihmin." Nori begins to whine while Haruto listens attentively. Sihmin grabs Haruto's jaw and makes him face her.
"Tell her that you're coming." She mumbles so only he could hear.
Haruto repeats her words to Nori and instantly gets an affirmative reply. He hangs the call and gives Sihmin a high five.
"We didn't even do anything and they're already fighting." They begin to giggle like teenagers, celebrating the new achievement. Their gazes lock, making them realize their proximity. Awkward aura surrounds the two until Sihmin decides to break it.
"Go to your girlfriend now." Sihmin flicks Haruto on the forehead and pushes him away, causing him to groan.
"But ain't I already with my girlfriend?" Haruto teases Sihmin while rubbing his forehead. Sihmin makes a disgusted face in return.
"Don't mess with me, Watanabe. We're just pretending to date. Get lost before Junkyu gets to Nori." Haruto begins to hurry after hearing her but turns around as a devilment crosses his mind.
"Won't you give your boyfriend a good luck kiss?" He smirks after seeing Sihmin go crimson. She throws her slipper at him which he dodges successfully and sprints after poking his tongue at Sihmin.
"Jerk." Sihmin cracks a smile after shaking her head at his antics.
