call him a stalker or a creep, but jaehyun had spent all day putting the clues together. there he was, in his room, sitting at his desk with the 7 letters put out in front of him. each one was a bit crinkled from being in his bag but besides that, they were in excellent condition.

"she's a first-year, musical theater, helping with the productions, kimchi fried rice, strawberry milk, ring...face turning red?"

individually, it made sense but altogether, nothing fit. it was like the person was giving hints to throw him off course.

his phone rings and he picks it up to see it's jungkook.

"hello?"

"jaehyun, did you find out who your secret admirer is?"

"why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"because i want to know. now, did you or not?"

"what if i say no?"

"then i'd tell you to that the person isn't so far away. in fact, she's closer than you think she is," his friend spoke in such a serious manner, jaehyun didn't know whether to laugh or not. "well anyways, that's all i had to ask..."

"wait kook," jaehyun stops his from hanging up. "do you know which first years are involved in the productions?"

"there's only 5 of them this year. why?"

"because the person sending the notes is a first year who's a part of the theater productions."

"well then find out who those 5 people are."

"jeez, why did i think asking you was a good idea? anyways, i'll see you tommorow."

hanging up on the phone, jaehyun groans into his hands and stares at those letters, expecting the words to come together and give him the person's name. he's had his share of secret admirers but the letters were always too straightforward and cliche for him.

but on the other hand, he had another person stuck in his head. namely, his best friend's little sister, kim yerim. he doesn't know how but she became a running thought. it was surprising to see how beautifully she had grown. when she was in 5th grade, her face had been half covered by plastic glass frames, hair in two pigtails, and wore bright clothes. but now, she had a beautiful facial structure, long black hair, and looked so mature in her school uniform.

truth be told, jaehyun could even maybe say he likes her. call it love at first sight but she looked so delicate and cute to him. and even though he hasn't had many interactions with her, he could tell that yerim had a lovely personality and drew him in even more. and it almost made him wish that if the gods were on his side, that she would be the one writing the notes to him.

"knock, knock, what's got you so deep in thought?" mingyu knocks on the bedroom door before striding in. the visitor takes a seat on the bed and leans back.

"just all these notes, that's all," jaehyun gestures to the notes in front of him.

"your secret admirer?" mingyu's friend nods his head. "are you closer to finding them?"

"i'm not sure, i'm kind of stuck," jaehyun rubs his eyebrows in frustration and impatience. "and on top of that, i'm confused about a lot of things."

"lay it on me," mingyu offers with a nod, to tell his friend that it's ok to tell him anything.

"well, i want to find who's writing these notes to me, of course. but..." jaehyun stops and looks at the other with a look before taking a deep breath and continuing. "i have someone in my mind, who i hope is the one writing the notes."

it's quiet for a moment until mingyu breaks it.

"it's my sister isn't it?" but instead of saying it in a hard tone, it's soft and almost teasing. jaehyun widens his eyes and turns to mingyu, who gives a knowing smile.

"how...?"

"it's so obvious. i saw you guys walking in the hallway together today and your ears were turning red. and for the past week, you've been staring in her direction so much during lunch. not to mention that you got all quiet after meeting her."

the room is still and jaehyun can feel his heart thumping with anticipation.

"i know you jaehyun, and you're a good person," he can feel a pat on his shoulder. "i trust you with my sister, but still know that if you do anything to hurt her, you will be a dead person to me and to everyone."

"got it..."

"anyways, let me see the notes. i know jungkook got to see them but i haven't had the chance to."

mingyu stands up and takes a look at the letter. and slowly, turns to his friend with a creepy smile.

"well, i think the heavens are on your side."
