The two of you somehow managed to clean the rest of the classroom before the teacher came back to dismiss you. Mr. Kim seemed quite surprised at how well you two had mopped the floor, like if the only thing he was expecting what was a poorly done, slippery floor.

"Well my goodness...this classroom this looks spotless! I can't believe I'm really saying this...but I really hope this isn't it the last time I get to see you in detention!!"

"Well we can't really say that's the same for us-"you awkwardly laughed, slightly nudging the boy to laugh along with you; He seemed to have gotten the message.

After some small talk with the teacher, he finally dismissed the two of you at dusk. Both of you stood there, side by side, with the school's entrance being right behind you. There wasn't much you two had to say, except say some unpleasant goodbyes and "see you tomorrows"...before quickly realizing.

You two were going home in the same direction, making it ten times worse!!

"Are you...are you also going to take the bus home?" you asked, while scratching the back of your neck. He slightly nodded, before looking at the sky and letting out a loud sigh of relief.

"I'm not that late...at least." he mumbled, intending it to be only heard for himself, but unfortunately you were pretty good at deciphering murmurs.

"What, are you afraid your mom is going to scold you for coming back so late~?" you teased, which made him chuckle a bit, giving you a slight glance at his beautiful smile, one that you hadn't noticed before.

You liked it...you liked it when he smiled at you like that.

"Unfortunately I don't have that problem." you furrowed your eyebrows at his statement, but he didn't pay attention to that, instead he kept his focus on the passing cars and the average citizens who were most likely going to take the subway.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I meant to say that I don't have parents like you do." you were quite stunned at how nonchalant he was at sharing such information with you, as you wouldn't usually share that type of information with anyone...or so you thought.

"Well that makes two of us then." he looked back at you with a shocked expression, as you now held the indifferent face.

"I ran away from home and moved with my sister, I bet they didn't even notice I was gone, just like how they didn't notice how Nayeon left..." tears were about to fall, as the heavy topic of your parents was one that you and Nayeon barely touched. You weren't even sure why you were sharing this with him, someone who you barely knew...so much so that you didn't even know his name!! Maybe it was because you felt pressured to say something about your parents, maybe it was because the topic made you vulnerable, you weren't exactly sure, but what you were sure of was the fact that after you said such words...
