-Haewon's POV-

I walked to school with Kyujin as usual, we had the normal conversations we usually had while walking to school. And I honestly didn't wanna talk about having a "self-esteem and self-confidence boost" again. I have to admit, I really needed one. Badly.

We arrived at the school, and to my luck, we didn't have our first class together. Well, my day is already being worsen. I really just wanna steal my brother Sunghoon's talent of being able to ice-skate flawlessly. That would've made my whole life easier. But I just had to be born without anything I was good at.

I went to the rooftop to clear my mind and get some fresh air. Mid-way, I hear someone singing. The figure looks like a girl, I approach her. And I stop near the entrance of the rooftop.

Her voice is absolutely heavenly. I thought to myself, I walked a bit closer to her and examined her face for a bit, but she noticed and got surprised. She stopped singing for a few seconds.

"YAH! You seriously scared me!" She tells at me pouting.

"Sorry, what's your name by the way?" I ask her, I was honestly about to laugh my ass off.

"Lily. Lily Morrow. You?" She asked.

"Oh Haewon. You can just call me Haewon." I answered giving her a soft smile in return.

She returned the smile, and asked me something.

"What time is it?" She asked me.

"Oh, it's almost 7:50 why?"

"Nothing, just wanna make sure I'm not late."

Our classes started really late in the morning, so we had almost the whole morning to joke around or study.

"That's good, we have a lot of time. We still have 2 hours before class starts anyway."

It was just after school break, and it was already summer. I was really excited for summer break.

"I wonder why we have classes at 9:00 instead of 7:00 or 8:00." She wondered out loud.

"Yeah, it's confusing." I answered her agreeing with her statement.

"Can you sing again maybe Lily?" I asked her.

"Y-yeah sure.." And with that she started singing again.

가만 보면 너는 진짜 너무해
– If you look at it, you’re too real.
때론 날 무심하게 내팽게 친 채 불안함이란 벌을 내려줘
– Sometimes you hit me involuntarily and punish me for my anxiety.
그럴 때면 난 길을 잃은 강아지가 돼
– When that happens, I’m a lost dog.
고개를 푹 숙인 채 걷네 그냥 난 네 품에 안겨있고 싶은데
– I just want to be in your arms.

날이 선 너의 말들에 찔려서 피가 났어 난
– I was stabbed by your words on the day, and I was bleeding.
근데 걱정은커녕 혼자 낫는 법을 너는 알려줘
– But you can tell me how to get better alone, not to worry about it.
그러다가도 헷갈리게 가끔은 예쁨을 내게 줘
– And then you get confused and sometimes you give me the beauty.
그럴 때면 나는 어떻게 해야 될지 몰라
– I don’t know what to do when that happens.

난 와르르
– I Warr
무너지고 말아 나의 맘은 와르르
– Don’t fall apart. My heart is warr.
내게 이러지마 baby 너 없는 하루는
– Don’t do this to me, baby, one day without you.
상상하기 조차 싫은 걸 아무것도 할 수 없을 걸
– You can’t do anything you don’t even want to imagine.
난 바보가 돼버릴거야
– I’m gonna be a fool.

Baby 와르르
– Baby Warr
무너지고 말아 나의 맘은 와르르

난 바보가 돼버릴거야
– I’m gonna be a fool.

분명히 나는 얘기했어 그 날 너에게 사랑을 말할 때
– Obviously, I talked to you that day when I said love to you.
어떤 순간들이 우리를 찾아와도 흔들리지 않기로 해
– Let’s not waver when some moments come to us.
근데 넌 파도를 타듯 ayy 내 맘을 마구 휘젓네 ayy
– But you’re like riding a wave, ayy, you’re like riding a wave, ayy.
나 가라앉지 않게 구명조끼라도 줘
– Give me a life jacket so I can’t sink.

사랑은 나를 시험해 난 밀린 숙제 검사를 맡네
– Love tests me, I take a pushed homework test.
도저히 못 풀겠을 땐 그냥 너가 좀 알려줘 yeah
– If you can’t solve it, just let me know. yeah.
정답을 알게됐을 땐 환한 미소를 내게 줘
– When you know the right answer, give me a bright smile.
나를 정신 못 차리게 만들어줘
– Make me crazy.

난 와르르
– I Warr

"Wow Lily! You have such a nice voice!"

"Huh? Thanks! I get that a lot, I don't think so though. "

We just laughed it off. And we went to class after. I really love the sound of her angelic voice. It sounded too good to be true, was I, falling for this woman?
