I mentally and physically slapped myself. I hide my face on my pillow and repeatedly cursed myself for interfering.

...

(I'm sorry if mingi's pov just came today:'))

Mingi's point of view.
I was confused why Hana suddenly messaged me saying that I shouldn't join Areum in making the props in her house. I mean, what could happen? Why is she stopping me from going..?

Anyways, I still went to Areum's house to help her with the props.

...

I arrived safely and so far, nothing happened. Though I was quite nervous too... I don't know for what reason but whenever Areum's around, I feel nervous.

(a/n: maybe bcs she's gonna hurt you soon:))

Well... I actually know and that's because I like Areum. I've been admiring her since last week. We were just peacefully doing our own works, some of them are bickering and some are giving out ideas.

When suddenly I heard Hana's name coming out of Hanbyeol's mouth.

"And Hana is such a b*tch..! I swear." Hanbyeol blurted out, the other girls agreeing to her including... Areum.

At first, I didn't want to care about it since it doesn't involve me but I just couldn't help but listen to their conversation.

"Like, what does she know in being a class president?! She's just a girl who think she can lead everyone correctly like duh, she's not even smart." I heard Areum exclaim.

"I agree! She acts like a leader all the time and thinks that she gives the best ideas like, she's not even close enough to okay." Sarang said as she rolled her eyes.

I glanced at them sneakily before continuing my work.

But I couldn't help but feel unfocused. I had so many questions in my mind.

Do they mean those words?

Aren't they friends since grade school?

Are they supposed to say that to her?

As far as I know, Areum and Hana are good friends...

I thought they were in such good terms..?

They talk normally and Hana seems to treat them nicely, what's happening?

Are they secretly hating on Hana?

Should I intervene or not?

I wanted to speak up and ask but I just kept my mouth shut and not intervene. I don't want to make the situation worse just in case.

Now, I think I know why Hana was stopping me from going.

Maybe she had a fight with them and she thinks Areum will be talking behind her back which is true actually because it's happening right now.

...

We successfully finished the props and costumes and made it till 7pm.

They planned to have dinner together at Areum's house but I insisted in going home since my mom would be very worried if I come home later than 7.

...

"Mingi! Where have you been, sweetie?" Mom said as soon as I entered the house.

"I was just at my classmate's house. We were finishing our props and costumes for our performance on Thursday." I explained as I hugged her.

"Don't worry, mom. I'm here now~ I arrived home safely." I said warmly to her as I hugged her tightly.

"Okay fine. Come on and eat dinner. I was so worried because you don't usually come home this late." Mom said as I just chuckled.

Fast-forward.

I took a quick shower and went to bed after I had dinner. But.. even though time had passed and I'm in my bed now, trying to sleep... the thoughts of Areum and her friends saying harsh words to Hana are still in my head.

I shouldn't be thinking of it since it doesn't even involve me but I don't know why I keep thinking of it even though I myself, am trying to forget that I heard it.

But...

Was I turned off by how Areum acted awhile ago?

Why am I even thinking of a lot of things? I should be sleeping. I'm wasting time on thinking and questioning stuffs too much.

And just as what I have been wanting to do as soon as I laid on my bed, I closed my eyes and started dozing off to a deep sleep.

...

a/n: i'm sorry about the curse words. my classmates and i swear a lot, don't worry I'm gonna minimize the curses as much as i can :)
