After a normal monday classes,I and Arin were excited to visit a new cafe that recently opened in her neighbourhood. However Arin got a call from her mother saying that she needs help for something so we had to cancel our plan.

Talk about good timing.

"Let's visit tomorrow after our judo class,then" Arin said before waving me goodbye and leaving me alone in the bus station. And I sighed, disappointed.

"I don't want to go home this early!" I muttered to myself,knowing the fact that if I returned home early,My mom will definitely tell me to help her in the restaurant which I don't want to.

It's not like I hate helping her but I'm too antisocial to interact with customers and served them foods.I will probably end up punching someone if they talk to me rudely and something.

Today also,When I was coming to school,I heard my mom saying how she was planning to offer me the restaurant as soon I finished my studies.

...which I definitely don't want.

I have always dreamed of winning a gold medal in judo for my country.But since from my childhood,My parents were against it. Specially my mom. Even allowing me to take judo classes was like a miracle after I and my dad begged her for it. She ended up agreeing just because she thought it was just a hobby of mine which will die soon by the time I graduated from school which I'm not planning at.

To be honest,I have already made my mind if after my graduation my mom told me to quit judo classes and to take over our restaurant's business,I would leave my home and stay with Arin and her family because as long as I've known them,They have been always supportive towards Arin's dream.

Shaking my head,I finally decided to spend some alone time in the central park. I cannot go back to home right now so it was better for me to spend some alone time.However as soon I turned my heels,I came face to face with a familiar face.

I froze on the spot.

"Euntae?" I was taken aback by such a sudden meeting of us that I stared at him in surprise and he did the same.

"Lisa?" He spoke,just as surprised as me, He looked genuinely dumbfounded by our so sudden crossover that he started to blink just to make sure that it was really me.

"I-I'm...How are you?" He blurted out and I couldn't help but stared at his familiar face.

Euntae and I have been friends when we were in middle school. I,Arin and Euntae were inseparable in those days that even teachers were quite surprised when they got to know that euntae was changing school. The reason behind him changing his school was due to his father's tranfer to abroad and since then,we ended never talking to each other. I mean we tried to contact him but we couldn't.

It was like he wanted to stay away from us for some reason.

But as he was now standing right infront of me with his same hazel eyes,long nose,small lips,messy brown hair and his same nervous look,I couldn't help but to felt somehow emotional than happy.

"You idiot!" I muttered and ended up tearing up while his eyes widen upon watching my emotional breakdown.

"What happened? Why are you crying?" He asked clueless,looking around nervously at people at the bus stop who were giving us weird glances. However I was too emotional to even care about them.

"What happened? You are asking what happened?" I glared at him with my red eyes while he stared at me, completely clueless.

"Let's talk-"

"Goodbye" I said and before he could stop me,I turned my heels to opposite direction and started to walk away from him. And of course,he followed me worriedly.

"Where are you going?" He asked, confused trying his best to keep up with me while I ignored him.

"At least say something?"

"..."

"Come on! Why are you crying?"

"..."

"Lisa!!"

"Fuck off!" I shouted at him and he stopped on his track,staring at me like he didn't expect the outburst from me.

"You're such an asshole,Euntae!" I snapped "What do you think of us,huh? You will cut yourself out from our life and come back as you pleased?"

"Lisa, It's not what-"

"Just fuck off" I glared at him "Do you even realise how many months we've tried to contact you? we even visited your old apartment and asked around the neighborhood for your whereabouts but in vain. And do you know what the funny thing was?You never even tried to contact us back"

He opened his mouth to say something but then he didn't. I gave him a disappointed look and finally walked away from there while he watched me go.

I don't care what you think about me anymore. You are nothing to us anyway.

You were just a classmate of mine.

Nothing else.

"Lisa! LISA!" Arin exclaimed in emergency as soon I stepped inside the classroom. She literally grabbed me by the shoulder and looked straight into my eyes.

"Have you seen the post that was posted on the school online website?" She asked and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"What post?"

"You didn't know?" A girl from our classroom asked this time from her seat while evryone stared at me like I was kidding.

"What I don't know?"

"The post about you and-"

"DON'T LISTEN TO THEM AND COME WITH ME!" Arin suddenly interrupted and before I could even keep my bag on my bench,I was dragged by her outside the classroom.

"Where are you taking me?" I asked as we were running through the corridor but she ignored me.

Soon we stopped near the washroom and after checking if anyone was there,she finally looked at me. Her worried expression returning.

"Don't get mad okay?" She said, panting "Just check the post about you"

"It's about me?" I asked clueless as I put out my phone from my bag and search the post on the school website.

"I don't know who posted it but I'm sure there's a misunderstanding..."

Arin's words seemed to fade away as soon my eyes caught on the post that was posted in the early morning. It says:

And the comments were horrible

And the comments were horrible.

"Who posted it?" I questioned Arin as I glanced at her and she looked at me with a worried face.

"Uhh...I don't know?" She replied "But I'm already tracking down the identity of the person"

"Good. Tell me when you find the person" I said,biting my lips in annoyance "They got some business with me"
