"I like you, Jin Yeong."
I feel like my whole world just went on a mute mode for a second before I can hear again.
That feeling that rose up my chest briefly;
His words that make me feel my skin crawling and body turn cold;
I choose to ignore it at the end.
And I smile.
"Of course you would like me. Since when I treat you bad? I like you too, oppa. More when you have lollipop for me."
I said while showing a hand and he end up chuckling.
Even if it's just a second;
I managed to figured it out.
It's a look Song Kang oppa have sometimes when he look at me.
Do Hyun oppa is confessing.
Back then I was blunt enough to not know about it when Ki Jun is acting like this to me but I could now.
That all these while how Do Hyun oppa act around me is the same as Ki Jun.
That he likes me but he keep a distance all the time.
Because I'm dating Song Kang oppa.
Just like when I'm dating Dong Min back then.
"How did you know that I always have lollipop?"
He took out one from his pocket and place it on my palm.
But this is only the way I could act towards him.
I appreciate him as someone who stays by my side but we can't go beyond friends and family.
Just like me and Ki Jun now.
"Of course I know. Just like how I know Yoo Bin and Dong Yeon love strawberry with their life. Kaja, let's go to class now."
I said while pointing using the lollipop before walking away.
And I let out a heavy breath.
"Jin Yeong ah, Jin Yeong, Jin Yeong!"
We already keep some seats for them as Dong Yeon came in with Min Ho and the rest.
He quickly settle down beside me and I give him a confused look.
"Wae? Something happened?"
He nodded furiously before showing me his phone and I look.
Do Hyun oppa look back too as he's sitting in front of me actually.
"Boom. Everyone knows you are writer Jin now."
He said and I read the article.
I did expected this to happen one day after the dating scandal.
It's just the matter of time.
And the comments aren't good.
They relate it back to the scandal.
And my phone rang which I handed Dong Yeon back his phone.
It's one of the director that I'm currently working with.
I'm in the midst of writing a new drama script actually.
But before he could say something, I spoke first.
"You can look for another writer, Director-nim."
"Nae?"
Isn't that why he call me?
He must have saw the article.
"Jin Yeong-sshi, mianhae. Jinjja mianhae."
