"How many times do I have to tell you that we are not in the relationship?"

Ruwon said and looked at her friends through the huge mirror of the bathroom. Dareum and Jaejin exchanged glances and teased Ruwon about the scene that they saw earlier. She washed her face to take off the watercolor that stained her cheeks and nose silently.

"What if Jeongwoo has a feeling on you?"

"He hugged you and treated you nicely."

"Did he confess his feeling to you?"

"Where's the towel?" Ruwon changed the topic by grabbing the towel from Jaejin and using it to wipe her face.

After she has done, she left the bathroom to meet her friends who were waiting for her in the living room. Dareum and Jaejin sighed when Ruwon didn't give any response to them and quickly followed her from behind.

As soon as she went downstairs, she was surprised when she accidentally bumped into Jeongwoo who has just left his room after taking a short shower.

He smiled at her, and continue drying his hair.

"Jeongwoo."

He stopped.

"Can we postpone the project? I want to go home."

"Do you want me to send you off?"

Ruwon patted his shoulder as she shook her head.
"Let's meet at the school."

She looked at Haruto for a few seconds, and quickly shifted her gaze to Woojae and the others.

"Let's meet at the school everyone."

While waiting for the bus to arrive, Ruwon decided to wait on the bench while drinking a bottle of coke that she bought at the convenience store nearby the bus stop. Ruwon didn't want to take out her phone because she knew that she will receive a few notifications from her friends asking about the relationship between her and Jeongwoo.

It's almost seven at night, and the bus would come in less than 30 minutes. She leaned her back against the bench and had nothing to do anymore.

She stared at the kids who were looking at her bag of potato chips and handed one of the chips to them.

The kids grinned happily. He went toward her to take the food and his smile dropped when Ruwon shoved the food into her mouth.

She giggled as the kids went to his mother, and silently cried because of what Ruwon did to him.

"You haven't changed at all, Yang Ruwon."

Ruwon immediately looked at the guy next to him.

The guy giggled, "Don't you remember me, Ruwon?"

"I'm Na Hanmin. We went to the middle school together."

Hanmin sat next to her and waited for her to do a handshake him.
