Chaewon had just finished her Chemistry class with Kazuha and they were now headed towards the cafeteria for their lunch break.

"Gosh, look at all the work Mr. Choi left for us. This is going to be a boring weekend." Kazuha complained.

"Tell me about it. We still have that paper due in History and don't get me started with the essay we have to do for English."

"They are driving us into madness I tell you."

"I know right?"

Kazuha then stopped and closed her eyes.

"Shit."

"What?"

"I think I forgot my notes inside the room. Wait, let me check."

Chaewon watched Kazuha rummage through her bag. She heard her groan in frustration when she couldn't find it.

"Damn it. Unnie, just go on ahead, I'll catch up in a bit."

"Alright, don't take too long."

"I won't!" Kazuha said as she started to do a half jog on her way back to their room.

Chaewon then proceeded towards her destination.

As she entered the cafeteria, she tried to find a familiar face, but couldn't, so she decided to get in line to buy her lunch. Once she had finished choosing her food and paying, she started walking towards an empty table when suddenly, her leg caught on something and she fell face first onto the ground, causing her to spill her lunch all over the place.

Her body started hurting in some places, but not as much as her pride. Being embarrassed in public was not something anyone would look forward to.

She heard some laughter in the background, which made her face turn beet red. She also felt a pair of arms try to help her up.

"Oh my God, Chaewon, are you okay?" Lily asked, concerned.

Chaewon got up slowly and just nodded her head in response.

"Does it hurt anywhere?"

"A bit, but I think I'll be okay. Thanks Lily."

"If I were you Lily, I wouldn't waste my time on a person like her."

Chaewon turned towards the sound and saw it was Bang chan, along with his friends Minho and Han.

All of them were laughing at her.

"Shut up Chan and stop being an asshole." Lily told him off.

"I'm just telling the truth from first-hand experience."

"She acts all nice and she is actually a bitch. You know what they say about 'good girls'." Minho added, making an air finger quote. All of them guffawed as if it was the funniest thing they heard. Other people sniggered too.

Chaewon noticed a lot of people were staring at them now. She was starting to feel sick.

"Shut your traps about Chaewon you bastards. What are you trying to prove huh?" Yeri butted in out of nowhere.

Bang chan shrugged, "That she's a tease and likes to drag people along for the ride, then laughs and skips away after you've been trapped."

"Sounds like you're one of those losers who can't handle rejection." Yeri informed him, crossing her arms. Bang chan's face turned red with anger.

"Don't you dare make assumptions about me, Yerim! Look, she's all quiet and can't even defend herself."

"You are all so stupid. You know what they say, birds of the same feather flock together." Han said while laughing.
