"Hey Seo-yeon." Deokgu tells me.
"What is it old man?" I tell him.
"This bitch...I heard you and Jinho walked home together yesterday. Usually Jinho just go home alone. Did you-"
"First of all, No. Second of all, it's a secret."
"I told you about yesterday! You should tell me too."
"...fine."

As soon as I leave the campus with the bag on my back, and suddenly, a hand grabbed my wrist, my body turns to him. He looks at me in the eyes as he tells me.
"Let's go home together." He said bluntly.
It was Jinho with his bag hanging from one of his shoulder.
'No.'
"Sure!"
As we walk together Jinho suddenly tells me.
"About the mall."
"Like I said-"
"My parents wanted me to come home right away. Afraid they might lecture me again and they did. They even throwed insults at me."
"Then its probably my fault...s-so everything is going to be okay! Dont blame yourself alright...?"
He gave a small chuckle.
"Its weird cause, I feel kinda relieve I know what you'll say. Its makes me feel I know I will be okay."
"Its weird isnt it?" He added.
"N-none at all!" I answered.
"Thank you, Seo-yeon." He tells me with a gentle smile.
"Huh? Why?"
"If it weren't for you, I would have seen the world as a TV show."
"So, thank you." He added.
.

"There, happy?" I tell Deokgu.
"His parents are such bastards! If I see them, I'll sue them."
"Ok."
"Stupid old salt man."
"Hey!!! Anyways. Let's meet up later. I have to go study."
"Did ya fail or something?"
"N-n-- I'm going!! Fuck you!"
"Fuck you too!"
'...'

My eyes diverts its attention to the small library that we encountered days ago.
'Come to think of it. What happened to the novel. I just returned it and went home, since I cant possibly own it because it belongs to the school.'
"Is it available here too...?" I mumble to myself.
Jinho looks at me as I look at him back.
'Did he hear it?'
"I want to buy something there. Let's go. You want something too right?"
'..oh?'
"Mhm!"
We entered to the store.
As he looks at the same shelf like last time.
While I,
'Romance...romance..there!'
I go to the romance section seeing the same novel.
I take the novel immediately while questions drowns my head.
'I wonder how many changes did I make? Maybe a million! No, I was pretty cautious. Well whatever. Let's see-...'
I flip the first page as my head starts ringing seeing images from my head.

"Mommy! Daddy!" The little child cries.
"I do°t have en■ugh ☆on○y for that child!" A certain lady yells.
"G●ve □e a big smil○." A perhaps a old man tells me as he caresses his hand to my cheek as he put my sweet smile.

"○□■•u°i"
