Irene shook her head and rolled her eyes at her classmate who gave a lame excuse for her late-coming.

She looked around the class and let out a bitter chunckle when numbers just kept appearing above all the student's head.

The blonde had met a bunch- or rather every single person that she met or pass by, had lied at least a hundred times.

She would not say that she had never lied before. But, its not as bad as other people with over a thousand lies. This is why, Irene was always quiet. She doesn't want to lie so she kept her mouth shut.

Irene thought that no one would ever break the record of three number of lies but she was wrong.

"..Hello! I'm Kang Seulgi! Nice to meet you!"

Irene heard a voice beside her and spun her head around, when a rare single digit appeared above the new face's head.

0

Oh my. Is that a zero that i'm seeing?

Irene stared at the girl infront of her in disbelieve and decided to test her. Not just once, but many.

"Seulgi, do you think that Joy is fat?"
"Well... What do you think?"
"I think she looks okay."
"Seriously? So am i the only one who thinks that she's meaty?"

0

She was beyond shock when Seulgi said that infront of Joy who immediately screamed at her with chicken meat in her mouth and she had remembered how Seulgi had suffered under the girl's wrafth.

"Seulgi, do you think you have a better voice than Wendy?"
"Wendy? Of course not!"
0

Irene gasped. It's been her 6th attempt and yet Seulgi still remained at the zero record. Honestly, she herself thought that Seulgi had a nicer voice than Wendy. She prefered Seulgi's unqiue, soft and stable voice.

Was her test too simple? Then Irene decided to do a last test.

"Seulgi, can i ask you something?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"I don't know if i'm getting a wrong vibe or something. But do you actually like girls?"
"H-Huh?"

Irene smirked inwardly as she thought she got finally get Seulgi to lie. Since admitting that she wasn't straight isnt an easy thing.
But somewhere deep inside her, Irene had hoped that if Seulgi really say no, it would be a lie.

"I like you, Irene."

"Hey, back to earth Joohyun!"

Irene snapped out of her trance and saw a pair of slim and long fingers waving infront of her, and she certainly knows who does they belongs to.

Seulgi aimed a cute and charming eyesmile to the older as she greeted in her usual blubbly character while Irene broke into a wide grin.

The girl let out a giggle and peck Irene's cheeks before settling down at the seat oppsite of the latters.

"What were you thinking about?" The younger grabbed Irene's hand and careress them gently with a cute smile while the older smiled and shook her head.

"I was just thinking about how we met and got together."

Seulgi quirked a brow and stared at Irene with curiosity, "Even after 3 years, you still don't want to tell me why you accepted my sudden confession so quickly?"
