6th august ; new semester.

time skip brought to you by... subway.

its been four months since me and yukhei broke up, the news seemed to spread fast around school. lets start one by one of the events that have happened so far.

the day we broke up, i called tsuki for mental support, we both ended up crying in my bedroom for i don't know how long. got interrupted by my mom, who is now hella mad at yukhei for his doings — tsuki and arin are beyond angry. the next day at school my loud friend told my favorite teacher and she gave me a hug. me and yukhei ignored each other, and this caused arising drama, as well as all sorts of rumors regarding our break up to spread. the exams came by and everyone kinda forgot that ever happened.

my results were better than ever, very proud. after exams was our official break, which i spent most the time at home playing roblox with my friends and still being heartbroken and trying to move on. tsuki and minjun confessed there liking for each other during the break too, tayoming and yuna seemed happy as ever. arin got herself a boyfriend and here i was being the third wheel.

finally coming back to the present, i woke a bit late than my usual school day routine — school started a bit later than usual thankfully. it was now first day of a new semester! yay... not really. to me it just meant more stress, seeing my ex, and more stress. i was finally a 9th grader, i decided to study business as i had probably mentioned long ago that i have a hate for science.

the day started off with my mom, waking me and haehyun up at exactly 6am saying it was first day of school. the word school itself made me sick to my stomach... yuck!

that was a bit childish now wasn't it — anyways, i took a quick shower and brushed my teeth before getting down stairs for some food. the breakfast was usual like any other day, an omelette and a cup of milk, for well protein. after a quick breakfast, my mom quickly ushered me and my brother back to our respective rooms to change into uniform. pulling on the usual boring uniform and the blazer since it was first day of school, although the weather outside was hot as fuck.

let me tell you about what's new, this year the school building had changed and all grades had to attend at the same time. yes, meaning me and my brother were standing in the same field, at the same time during the assembly. we had to stand in the awfully bright sunlight for about an hour listening to our principal yapping about how we should focus on our studies. that's not the worst part, me and yukhei somehow ended up next to each other too. i could feel the awkwardness as arin who stood next to me shot glares at him.

after the long assembly we were sent back to our class, our class teacher made us introduce ourselves as it was first day of school. "each one of you say your name and something you like doing" ms. sung instructs, starting from you, she says pointing at the boy sitting farthest from me. i was screwed, the fuck was i good at, i look at the boy next to me who was tayoming, tapping on my table to get his attention. "what do i even like doing?" i whisper yell, he looks at me furrowing his eyebrows, "uhh... playing roblox with us?" he laughs. "no wait, drawing!" he says, i nod remembering.

as i anxiously waited, my turn came, the teacher made me stand up as i gave an awkward smile "my name is haewon and i like drawing" i say, "what kind of drawing" the teacher continued. i awkwardly smile again "digital art..." i mutter and the teacher lets me sit down.

we were given a bunch of free time, along with stressing 'cuz we were 9th graders and had to be more attentive. but did me and my friends pay any attention, not really, all i had in mind was a bunch of pilling up complains to be told to my mom.

the school sessions best part finally comes, interval. i go down to the compound with my group of friends, as we all laugh around. we also had a whole school tour, as it was new to us. the school was very spacious and big but, on the way down i ran into yukhei, who seemed sad?

during interval my friends and i found a place to claim, as we just relax and talk about our usual gossips. that was all interrupted when gossips abruptly started around us.

i heard she cheated on yukhei

i heard they kissed!

honestly they were so cute together

i heard it was a-jin who made the rumors and that haewon is innocent.

arin glared at the people who spoke, as i looked down. "let's leave" insoo says wrapping her arm around me, and pulling me somewhere else. what we didn't know is that yukhei was inspecting, and followed us. once we all stopped at another place, the tears seem to flow. arin and tsuki gently pulls me into a hug as the rest of them joining the hug later on.

"can i talk to her?" a deep voice says, as they all snap their head towards the owner of the voice, and i look up from tsuki's shoulder. arin and tsuki glares at him, but tsuki looks at me as her eyes soften, "haewon?" tsuki asks gently, i give a nod and they leave us some space. yukhei gently walks towards me, cautiously looking at my teary eyes. he gulps, "can i hug you?" he asks quietly, i nod slowly. "first let's go to somewhere more private" he suggests, leading me to an empty hallway.

once we were alone, he pulls me by the head into a gentle hug. "im sorry" he whispers putting his chin on my head, i sob harder, clenching the cloth of his uniform. "why?" i whisper, the words muffled. "i was dumb" he replies, "i believed the lies" i felt something warm touch my hair. is he crying too?

"im so sorry haewon, i love you so much" he says, as more warm tears drip down my hair. i gently part us from the hug, wiping his tears as he wipes mine. "i promise i'll make it up for the 4 months i was shit to you" he says, taking my hand, linking our pinkies together making a pinky promise.

we giggle through our tears, as he offers to walk me home, and hugs me tightly. "one problem though" i say, he pulls away holding my shoulers. "my friends and family are pissed at you so... good luck with that" i give him a quirky smile, he curses under his breath, running a hand through his hair. "i'll show them and claim you as my girlfriend again!" he exclaims punching the air.

"i'll become someone more stronger, and i will make sure before believing lies" he says, raising his hand to his chest. making both of us laugh, as i hit his chest lightly. "i know sorry won't fix anything but, i didn't deserve those tears you let out at every sight of me" he says, gently holding my hand. "i'll make you smile more" he says giving me a big grin.

now, now, people you maybe thinking, well 'girl the fuck why are you giving a second chance to your ex when he left you heartbroken!'. well i think everyone deserves a second chance, if they aren't an asshole.

though we were back on the talking stage, i wasn't gonna give him the title of my boyfriend that easily. i'm gonna see what he does, to achieve it.

as if on que the bell rings indicating the end of the interval, "i'll walk you home, and apologize to your parents" he says ruffling my hair a bit and sending me off. all my friends rush to my side asking what happened, but tsuki and arin shooed them away, "it was private, so give the privacy" tsuki spoke. when it was just the three of us, i look at the two of them, smiling a bit "i'll explain to you two, my place in the evening?" i ask. they both nod agreeing and we all make our way to class.

‧͙⁺˚*・༓☾TBC☽༓・*˚⁺‧
