"Did you figure it out already?" Seyong questioned.

"This is not the right time for that Seyong, we're in the middle of dancing. Get your thoughts straight" Hyo Jin coldly respond.

"Okay, we talk about that later then, now let's just enjoy our time alone Hyo Jin" he utter followed by a grins flashing on his face.

"Miss Jean is here though" Hyo Jin rolled her eyes at him.

"Don't ruin this moment babe, just pretend her like a mannequin standing on the corner of the room" Seyong pulled Hyo Jin closer to his body, both their torso brushed. Hyo Jin is flusters by the proximity they were in.

"You're too close Seyong" she utter undertone, feeling her face burning.

"Seyong! You're doing it wrong!" Miss Jean points out. She amble towards Hyo Jin and Seyong, she practically points out the mistakes that she spotted earlier (which she intentionally gathered them).

She put Hyo Jin's arms around Seyong's neck, insisting that Hyo Jin didn't show much emotions and her action is based on how it should be done.

"Do it one more time, scene four. If both of you can do it well, you can end practice after that" she declare and shuffle back to her seat.

"Let's do it" Seyong encourages while beaming warmly at Hyo Jin making her motivation rises up to sky high.

Hyo Jin nods and the practice once again began, more intense than before. Even the music seems sober than it used to be in Hyo Jin's ear.

The last part of scene four is a kiss scene, Hyo Jin is anxious about it and when the music reaches it climax, Seyong is getting ready for the kissing scene but someone walks into the auditorium halting the practice.

That was close. Hyo Jin sigh in relief as they didn't stand a chance to do the -awkward- kissing scene.

"Guys, you did well. let's call it a day, I got urgent call so please get home safely"

Hyo Jin slump herself on the floor and lie down when the door closed. Seyong looks down on her and smile widely watching Hyo Jin with her spontaneous behaviour around him despite his attitude toward her before.

"Hyo Jin" he spats and lie down beside her.

"Why are you like this? You're a girl, don't just lie down anywhere you want. It's so unlady-like"

"Then why are you lying beside me Seyong? If anyone walked in from that door would think stupid shit and rumors start to spread and then my hair---" Seyong puts his index finger against Hyo Jin's lip. Hyo Jin is baffled and her tongue suddenly tied.

"Listen Hyo Jin, That's not going to happen, I'll protect you no matter what. I'm sorry for everything that just happened between us. I know that I'm being harsh on you for the past two years and I wanted to tell you that I was the one who wrote that letter to you... I don't want to tell the truth earlier because Gunwoo was there with us"

Hyo Jin covered her mouth, unable to accept the fact that Seyong wrote the letter.

-

"Hyo Jin, You're okay?" Seyong turns his head slightly to Hyo Jin.

"Yea" she warmly smile at him. But why would he wrote such things, he even slur at me saying that I'm a foolish to love him still...

"That's a relief then" He respond. "Anyway... did you gained weights? you're heavier than before" Seyong blurts. Hyo Jin immediately pulled his hair, infuriated.

"You're the one who wanted to piggyback me jerk! I don't want this on the first place. I didn't gained any weights Seyong" she wail aloud. "Put me down now!" she yelled.

"No~~" he utter in sing-a-song manner.

"Woa! Look who's here, the girl from the other day. Whats up girl? Coming to see oppa?" The Masked-gang leader with his gang shows up before Seyong and Hyo Jin.

Hyo Jin is taken aback and Seyong is confused. He puts Hyo Jin down and keep her behind him.

"Ho ho ho~ New boyfriend baby girl? Where's the other guy, what his name again? Ah! Chaejin! That guy is so much fun" he bables, fixing his eyes on Hyo Jin.

"What are you talking about? She's always been my girlfriend and how did you know Chaejin? What's your problem with him?" Seyong challenge with his face turning grim with anger.

"Chaejin? I saw his name badge. Anyway, your girlfriend has some unsettled bussiness with me, mind if you lend her to me for the night?" The gang leader nonchalantly requested.

His gang approached Hyo Jin, ready to take her away but in the blink of an eye one of them stumble on the bare ground.

"What? Unsettled bussiness? I'm sorry but I didn't heard you, don't you dare lay your filthy hands on her" Seyong shouted after punching one of the guy.

The gang leader and his kids come charging foward toward Seyong. Seyong pushed Hyo Jin away and somehow she saw something, Seyong's unreadable expression.

'Hyo Jin, forgive me, I didn't wrote the letter. I just want to take the empty place in your heart that I had left behind long ago. Give me second chance to fix it... if any guy should fill that place to protect you, cherish you, to love you for eternity, let it be me'

"Hyo Jin! Go seek Gunwoo!"
