It had been a few days since that night between mi-sun and cheong-san as the morning sun woke him and got him ready for school. He had his normal breakfast before heading next door as he picked up On-jo on time like he usually did.

"That's cheong-san. I have to go. Bye dad." On-jo spoke to her father as she got up. Putting her shoes on as Nam So-ju wanted her to eat her breakfast but watched her leave anyways.

Cheong-san smiled when he saw her come out. "Ready? He asked as she nodded. They both held their hand out before playing three rounds of rock , paper , scissors to see who'd have to carry the other's bag to and from school. Cheong-san ended up winning for the day as he cheered before watching as On-jo ran ahead.

"Hey! Wait up!" He yelled as she ran ahead to the elevator and having the doors close on him as he huffed before running all the way down stairs. He panted once he got down and waited for on-jo with his bag ready for her.

On-jo walked out as he extended his bag to her. "I got hurt making breakfast." She spoke as she extened her arm out to show him her finger she put a bandaid on.

Cheong-san saw her finger before placing his bag on her arm. "Carry my bag to school.. gopher." He teased before walking ahead as he dodged her kick and laughed

-------

Mi-sun on the other hand was walking with her best friend Choi Nam-ra. "Thanks for waking me up today again." Mi-sun spoke as she walked with her.

"No problem. I know you wouldn't want to be late like last time but you also haven't been yourself lately. Is everything okay?" Nam-ra asked. Worried for her best friend.

Mi-sun sighed before giving in. "W-well.. you know I've liked Cheong-san for a while-." "Years." Nam-ra teasingly corrected. "Yes, well years but.." Mi-sun hesitated before continuing. "We kind of did something together and now he's been ghosting me or avoiding me in person.." She spoke.

"You two.." Nam-ra spoke as she got a nod of confirmation from the female. "You should try talking to him today then. Maybe he's just been busy." She spoke as she tried to reassure the female. "I hope so." Mi-sun spoke as she walked into the school with her before heading to class together.

It took a while but soon the class had a few more students as she watched the doors for him to walk inside. Gathering her courage to get up and talk to him about what happened between them.

-------

Cheong-san had made it to school on time as he smiled. Watching On-jo be stopped and being late as he turned away happily before heading to class first as he liked that he won and had her carry his bag.

The moment he walked into class he could feel a pair of eyes on him and he knew who it exactly was. Walking to his desk and friend group. Ignoring the stare he got before hearing her footsteps approach him.

"Cheong-san.." He heard her say his name and as much as he liked hearing her say it he was still unsure of how he felt about her. "C-cheong-san can we talk?" She asked him lightly as he ignored her. His heart melted hearing her speak.

Mi-sun lightly reached out as he felt her tug on his sleeve. He yanked his arm out of her hold. Surprising himself and her in the process but he didn't show anything. "Go away." He spoke up. "I'm busy here."

Mi-sun listened to the male speak as she lowered her hand quietly. Embarrassed and feeling humiliated that the class had to hear and see that. Her cheeks turning red and her eyes glossy with unfallen tears.

Na-yeon was close to hear the whole thing as she let out a small scoff laugh. "How pathetic do you have to be to be begging someone to listen or talk to you?" She spoke up as some laughed at her words.

"Hey-!" Cheong-san spoke up hearing her as he was interrupted.

"You're right.. sorry Lee.." Mi-sun mumbled as she glanced at her shoes before glancing up at him.

Cheong-san glanced at her at the use of his last name from her. The sight pulling at his heartstrings as he could feel the guilt treating her that way. "Mi-sun.." He spoke.

-------

Mi-sun made her way back to the classroom after washing up and going to her seat right on time as Ms. Park walked in not too long ago. She hid her phone in her bag turned off as she didn't want to deal with having to go pick it up. Ignoring the male's stare her way.

Nam-ra noticed she had returned and rubbed her back gently. Quietly leaning in. "Are you alright?" She asked quietly when the teacher wasn't looking at them. Getting only a small nod in return as she was worried about her friend's well being.
