The Twin | Kim Gyuvin ZB1

1 Her Crush

"Meowww"

Gyuvin, who was in ninth grade, was on his way back home after school, when he passed an alley and heard weird noises. He had a peek and saw a few stray cats huddled around a girl while eating from cans of cat food. The girl was squatting down and patting the cats, making sure they ate every bit of food in the cans. A soft smile unknowingly creeped on his face, and what was intended to be a peek became a long gaze. He recognised that the girl's uniform was from a girls' middle school nearby. Her jet black hair, which was the same colour as her school bag, was cut into a blunt bob, but he couldn't manage to get a glimpse of her face because it was covered by her hair. The girl seemed to have noticed his presence and looked up for a moment before attending to the cats again. Even though he wasn't doing anything bad, he felt as though he had been caught prying and quickly left the scene.

It was one of those random, trivial incidents that Gyuvin had forgotten over time.

.

"Ya!" Gyuvin saw his best friend sleeping at his desk in the classroom before school started, so he went up to give him a scare. "Han Yujin, it's just the first day of school, and school hasn't even started. How are you already sleeping?"

Yujin let out a groan and went back to his sleeping position.

"Stop sleeping. Let's talk to people and meet new friends." Gyuvin forced Yujin to sit up straight, earning himself a death glare from him, which he interpreted as a gesture of fondness. "Aww I know you're glad that we're in the same class."

Just then, the two boys were interrupted by an enthusiastic greeting from the honey-brown-haired girl sitting in front of them. "Annyeong."

"Annyeong." Gyuvin responded with a welcoming smile. "I'm Kim Gyuvin."

"I'm Kim Joohee." The girl introduced herself.

And the girl next to Joohee, who was unpacking from her white schoolbag, also turned around to introduce herself with a timid smile. "I'm Ryu Siyoung. Nice to meet you." Siyoung had long, wavy, dark brown hair, which perfectly complemented her classically soft features. Gyuvin thought she looked a bit familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had met her.

The two girls then looked towards Yujin.

"I'm Han Yujin." He gave them a slight nod.

"Has anyone ever said that you looked like Song Kang?" Joohee couldn't help but be fascinated by Gyuvin's similarity with the famous actor. "Even how you speak sounds like him."

"No way, Song Kang? Him?" Yujin pointed at Gyuvin in disbelief.

"Eiii Song Kang-nim's a lot more handsome. Maybe just a little." Gyuvin pinched his fingers together, obviously flattered by Joohee's comment.

"You look familiar too." Joohee tilted her head while looking at Yujin. "But I can't point my finger at it."

Gyuvin noticed a photo card on Joohee's pencil case and pointed at it. "Who's that?"

Joohee turned around to see what Gyuvin was referring to. She immediately became excited and picked up her pencil case. "BTS Jungkook!"

"You're an ARMY?"

"YES. YES. YES." She bobbed her head up and down.

Gyuvin chuckled at her fangirling. "Our Yujinnie is pretty good at dancing. You should ask him to show you some moves next time."

Yujin scowled at Gyuvin for putting him on the spot.

"Really?" Joohee was not expecting that from Yujin. "People who're good dancers are so cool."
