Iseul sat in the tent, patiently waiting for Jisung to enter. It's already 8pm and everyone was inside their tent. What she don't understand is, what the man is doing out there alone. The next 15 minutes pass by again. Iseul sighs, standing up to exit the tent.

"What are you doing?" She let out. Jisung hum facing her. "There's nothing interesting out here. What the hell are you looking at?" She adds looking around. "I was waiting for everyone to sleep" Jisung answered. A frown escape her face, confusion hitting her. Sometimes, she just can't understand the man. "Why? We have our own tent, why?"

Iseul kept her eyes on her phone, finally making Jisung get in their tent. Back facing Jisung, she scroll through Instagram. Not feeling sleepy yet. Talking about how her day goes, it was fun. She did enjoyed Jaemin's accompany. The activity was tiring but it's fun. She enjoy the peace Jaemin was giving her.

"Iseul" A hand grab her phone followed by the same hand wrapping on her waist. "What?" She spins herself to face Jisung. "I'm..." Suddenly, her heart rate accelerated. "No" She push the man. "What?"

Jisung woke up the next day so early. It's only him and a few students he don't know. With his jacket on, he shut the tent close to keep Iseul's peace continuously. "Jisung" Turning around, he face Kim Sooah, a classmate of them. "Can we have a word?"

"So early in the morning?" He raise a brow, making sure to keep quiet as his girlfriend were still sleeping. "Well, can we?" Sooah states. "Sure" He nods, ready to listen. "Actually, I've been giving this a thought for so long and—" Sooah halts hearing a noise inside the tent. "Sorry, can we talk later?" He rush back in the tent closing it immediately.

He's not numb. He knew what's about to happen. And what is Sooah about to say. What's the woman's main purpose of approaching him. "Jisung" Iseul mumbles in her sleep, wrapping a hand on his hips. He lift his hand rubbing the woman's back. "Sleep more" He lie back down closing his eyes.

Jisung hands a jacket on Iseul as the woman exits the tent, finally awake. Iseul pull out a piece of wipes to wipe her face. Jisung stood beside the woman who sat on the huge rock. "Jisung, who were you talking to earlier?" Iseul asks. "Sooah" He honestly answer. "Wow. You're so honest" The woman mumbles. "What did she say?"

"Make sure it's a nice meal for my morning. Or else I won't be able to control myself" Iseul threaten. "Actually, she fails to finish herself. You talk in your sleep so I rush back in the tent." The man answers. "But you do know what she's about to say, right?" She replied. Jisung stares her for a few seconds before nodding. "And what would be your suppose answer to it?"

"Of course I'll reject her, I have a girlfriend!"

"Here, drink it while it's hot" Jisung hand her a cup of coffee. "Hey, bros" Haechan and the rest approach them. Sitting on the ground. "You won't believe, something good happened last night" Haechan blabbers. "I'm not interested" Renjun said, uninterested, sipping his coffee. "All of you are so bad, what the hell?" Haechan claims. "Don't be upset, go on tell us" Yangyang replied. "Kim Sooah"

Jisung almost choke on his coffee but manage to compose himself. "I was her partner to the activity last day, it was a moment of love. I think I fell in love" Haechan smiles. "I don't Sooah think did" Chenle replied. "Facts!" Jeno calls. "You all are so full of hatred inside that deep and shaggy heart of yours. This is me, liking someone for the first time, come on!"

"Don't be sad, come on, tell us about your experience" Jaemin butt in. "I held her hand, she grip onto me and—" Haechan halts as he was interrupted by a voice. "Can we sit in?" Iseul look up only to the main character of the talk show, Kim Sooah with her friend Jang Mijin. "Sure, sure!" Haechan was fast to give the two women a space.

"Jisung, good morning" Sooah greets. "Yeah, it's a good morning" The man look away. Iseul sharpen her sight watching Jisung look away, flustered. "Iseul, what's wrong?" Ren quietly sit beside Jaemin holding her coffee. "Huh? Nothing" She answers Jaemin. Iseul shifted her gaze back to Sooah who stares at her boyfriend like there's no tomorrow. The gentle looking woman smiling by herself. Suddenly, a hand was put on her waist, squeezing it.

She slowly look back on Jisung who only smiles at her. She knew that face, it's the assurance that nothing will go wrong. She nods as return. "Jisung, are you free after this?" Sooah smiles by herself. "Uhm, Sooah, Jisung has a girlfriend. If you're hitting up with him" Chenle claims. "Girlfriend? I don't see her" Sooah scratch her head. "Look here" She said, finally had enough.

"Cho Iseul?" Sooah raise a brow. "Yes, me, I'm his girlfriend. Stop hitting on my boyfriend" She snaps. "Iseul, calm down. It's the morning" Haechan tried to calm the situation down. "Why are you picking a fight with me?" Sooah shifted. "You are picking a fight with me" She elaborates. "Flirting with my boyfriend in front of me?"

"Iseul, stop. Sooah, don't say anything" Jisung butt in. "Why are you siding with her? She starts the fight" Sooah claims. "I don't care who starts it!" Jisung shouts causing everyone to tense up. "Sooah, to what you're about to say earlier. No, I don't like you and I can't like you back. I have a girlfriend, she's here, Iseul" Jisung states, explaining everything to be clear. "I haven't even confess, and you're rejecting me?"

That made Iseul mad, Jisung was fast to block her from charging towards Sooah. "Yes, I wanted to say I'm sorry but I won't. My girlfriend and I, we're in a healthy relationship. Pease don't ruined it." The man adds. "Jisung, look, I can wait" Jisung sighs pushing his hair back in frustration. "Wait?" He claims. "Are you saying you'll be waiting for us to break up?" His eyes darken and he could feel himself getting angry.

"I hate people like you so much. You think you're pretty? You're not. Stop being so over confident that you think you can get anything you want, bitch"

Iseul exits the bus rushing towards the side of the road to hop in a taxi back home. "Hey, Iseul" Jisung walk over to her. "Don't talk to me" She snaps. "Hey, I fought back there. I forget about being gentleman and snaps at Sooah carelessly. I know what I said to her was mean and I'm not even sorry for what I said."

"Why are you getting mad at me?"

"Well, I'm sorry!" She claims. "I'm sorry that Sooah decided to like you, I'm sorry that I was mad because someone is claiming my boyfriend!" She shouts. "Hey, I know you barely know Sooah but I do. We were classmates and she was nice to me" Jisung states. "Are you seriously defending Sooah in front of me?" She ask, hurt. "I am not defending anyone. I'm stating a fact. You're already my girlfriend, so, what's the use of complaining regarding my relationship with Sooah?"

"You're really serious. Jisung, I'm disappointed"

"There's nothing for you to be mad about! I said what I said. I rejected her in front of everyone, I don't get why you're so pressed when it comes to Sooah" Jisung claims. "You're really annoying" She stares at Jisung, angry. "I hate you. You can get jealous, no matter how many times you want, and every time that happens, I would coax you but you cannot do the same. I kept wondering what's stopping you from stepping over your pride when it comes to dealing with me, it's Sooah"

"Iseul, it's not like that—"

"It's like that! You defended me in front of everyone and insult the shit out of me now that we're alone. Park Jisung, you're too much" She continues. "I thought dealing with your stubbornness won't change much with different relationship status but this is much harder than dealing with the friend I have named Park Jisung. You're acting like you're a grown up fine man, that you can defend your girlfriend in front of everyone"

"I know dealing with things privately is a must but Jisung, you're fighting with me because of a woman" She continue to blabber. "How could you do this—no, I should be sorry. I'm sorry that I'm jealous, I'm sorry that I'm threaten because Sooah is so damn pretty and I'm so fucking replaceable, I'm sorry that I fight heads on with you because of my jealousy, I'm sorry, alright?"

"After all, I'm just one of your Sooah's , you can leave me anytime you want, like how you disappear for a year"
