Teddy Bear [Bbangsaz]

Chapter 15

"So how was school?" Hyein jumps into Minji's arms excitedly after giving her unnie a hug.

"Got any new friends?"

"Many!" the bear relies matching her enthusiasm as the latter holds her hand and starts walking. Noticing her unnie's quietness, Hyein quickly pulls out her other free hand to hold hers.

Minji being the Minji she is saw them and immediately shifts her place, releasing Hyein'shand to stand next to Hanni and holds her free hand, making Hanni stand in the middle of the babies.

Hanni looks up from their interwined pinkies to the bear's toothy grin.

Knots.

But she didn't say anything.

It's contagious, she couldn't help but to crack up a small smile despite her eventful day as they continued their way.

From scene went from parents holding their daughter's hands to a mother holding her daughters' hand real quick.

Down to a comfortable silence accompanied by Hyein's singing to a children song, Minji's grin never left her face. If spending a day at school struggling your way throughout all the attentions gained, rejecting people's offer to walk home (she told them that she'll be staying at Hanni's because she's close to Danielle) but ending with being able to experience this, maybe going to school is not bad idea after all.

Or was it?

Because it's the same as yesterday and the day before as Hanni once again spent the rest of her night finishing her 'task', ignoring the fact that she once again denied Minji and her work.

Adding another page to Minji's pile.

"It's okay!" she said to herself, smiling, because Hanni did too all the time when they went home and how she did at school.

As long as Hanni is happy.

Little that the bear know she was on cloud nine because of another bear she received as a 'present for being helpful. When Minji had found out about the other bear, deep inside she wants to throw it away like Hanni's umbrella but her master seems to really like the key chain that she refrained herself from doing so. The only thing she can do is have a staring contest with it, hoping that it'll disappear if she won, which she never did because key chains don't blink.

Bears should be friends.

Jeongwoo is another topic, Minji also doesn't get why her master likes him so much. To everyone's eyes he is the (typical) nice and responsible upper levelled student, being extra handsome(?) is definitely a bonus, at least that's what she heard from some students including Wonyoung herself.

However, her chest burns in fury whenever her eyes meet hers in the hallway, the guts that he has to give her a wink when the person who has a crush on him is just literally walking beside him, the bear wants to go violent against him, but she had learned from a certain cartoon that violence is never the answer to any problem, full stop.

That's just some of the part, what really gets her is whenever Hanni speaks his name before dashing to her room.

She should be happy, she said to herself once again, because the next few days, all attentions are on her. Minji had shown a lot of skilled performance and her ability. very impressive to everyone indeed as she kept receiving compliments, fans, love confessions, even Choco milk.

Of course she only took the Choco milk.

Wonyoung also has been a great company in the dance class. She enjoyed having her and Yujin around as well, though the other one rarely talks to her. They did had a decent conversation before about how's your day and stuff, but that's it, it never got more than 5 minutes. Minji just thought that Yujin was the quiet type so she shrugs it off. The bear didn't quite get why the trio would dislike them.
