March is the month when we have to say 'goodbye' to everyone. Even though the relationship between Soobin and me hasn't changed much... The final day of my three years at Seoul National High School is approaching. Yes, graduation day is getting closer, Yeonjun thought as he watched the teacher write how many days were left until graduation.

"There are exactly eight days left until graduation day," the teacher announced. "We spent the last three years together, but soon I have to say goodbye to all of you."

The class , typically lively, now bore a dull atmosphere as the final days of high school approached, marking the approaching departure of students onto their individual life journeys.

"What's wrong? You guys look sad," the teacher teased, but the students didn't find the joke amusing.

Meanwhile, every student in Class A was busy chatting with each other. "Finally, we can enjoy school life now that we know which school we'll be going to," Mingi told Soobin, who was immersed in a book.

"Many people in this class are going to other universities. Saying goodbye will be sad," Mingi said with a sigh.

"I'm the only one who is going to Seoul College. You can always visit me," Soobin reassured.

"But are you sure about this?" Mingi inquired seriously.

"If I change my mind and want to go to Seoul National University, I will try next year," Soobin declared, closing his book.

"That's right. It would be so easy for you," Mingi remarked, leaning on the window.

"Soobin is really going to Seoul College?" A girl who had overheard the conversation between Mingi and Soobin asked her two friends.

"I'm a little bit shocked," the girl with the glasses confessed.

Another girl motioned for the two friends to come closer and whispered, "Rumor has it, he didn't take the second exam so that he could go to Seoul College."

"But why?"

"It can't be for that boy in Class F, can it?"

As the break time arrived, the three girls hurriedly leave the room and head to the canteen. "The rumor suggests Soobin is going to Seoul College because of that boy," the girl started again when they noticed there was no one nearby on the staircase.

"Unbelievable."

"What is so great about him?"

The girl was about to respond further when they heard voices coming from downstairs.

"We are going to graduate soon!" a loud voice echoed.

"You have to make a special memory with Soobin," Beomgyu nudged Yeonjun as they made their way back to the classroom.

"But we are going to the same university," Yeonjun furrowed his eyebrows.

"What are you saying? It's the end of our high school life! This is the best chance to get closer to Soobin," Beomgyu exclaimed, raising his fist in the air.

"You two are going to be together on graduation day!" Kai chimed in.

"Enough, it's embarrassing me!" the thought of being with Soobin made Yeonjun giggle.

"At least, a kiss," Beomgyu whispered sheepishly.

"In memory of the graduation ceremony, you should have your first kiss," Kai added, making Yeonjun blush like a tomato.

"Oh, stop it. I can't do that!" Yeonjun waved his hands.

"Do you know this school's legend? It says a couple that kisses on graduation day..."
