21 - ☆: worries.

Yerim takes out the books given by Jay before from her bag, since they only studying mathematics, that will be a reference for her.

"What is this for?"

Asked Jungwon as soon as he saw Yerim take it out, a seriousness in his face showing. "Study? We're going to study mathematics, right?" replied Yerim in confusion.

"We don't need those books, put it away."

"But I need this book." Yerim rolled her eyes in annoyance, she wouldn't give up easily. Jungwon then snatched the books from her hand and put them away.

"What are you doing?! Give it back." now she's getting upset when Jungwon just casually took the books from her hand just like that.

"Listen to me, Moon Yerim. If you're really serious about your future, pay attention to me."

Jungwon stops Yerim from throwing a tantrum by locking her with both of his hands on her chair. Yerim is silent when Jungwon is too close to her, once again she can smell the scent he sprayed on his neck.

"I got it, let's start the lesson."

Yerim gave up and avoided eye contact as she hoped Jungwon would start the lesson right now because they were in an awkward position. "Good girl," muttered him then smirked in proud when Yerim agreed to him.

Jungwon teaches Yerim as usual and tells her to solve some questions, there's a time when Yerim doesn't know how to calculate but she doesn't ask Jungwon because of being scared of looking down by him. Yerim just kept staring at certain questions, hoping she knew how to solve them easily like others did.

"You didn't know that?"

Jungwon noticed that Yerim hadn't written anything to the question he told her to do.

"N-no I know it."

"What the use of me being your tutor if you didn't ask me?" said Jungwon when Yerim still didn't rely on him, she lowered her gaze while playing with her hands when Jungwon knew that she was lying.

Jungwon sighed seeing she easily gave up without trying hard on something, he then took Yerim hand and told her to hold the pen to try it again but this time Jungwon told her how to do it.

"Try to look at the question properly first, then write down what you understand."

Said him with a calm voice. When Yerim done solved the question, she found it was actually easy, thanks to Jungwon who was the one who taught her.

"Since these easy questions you can't solve, then I guess I should teach you from Topic 1."

'dang, that's a lot to catch up.' said Yerim in her mind.

"And one more thing, don't be shy to ask. Just ask me, if you didn't ask, how are you going to understand anything?" added him. Yerim just nodded, he probably noticed how she didn't want to ask him just now, thinking her.

They then started the lesson by studying Topic 1 first. Only at this time, they didn't bicker with each other. Instead, they look like they've been close to each other for long. And it's was Yerim first time seeing Jungwon treat her nicely.

This was her first time she had heard Jungwon talk nicely with her, she still remembered how Jungwon said he was busy when Yerim asked him to teach her Mathematics. Who knows now Jungwon is the one who badly wants to teach her and Yerim hardly refuses about it.

After a couple of hours, Topic 1 was finally completed. Yerim hides her smile in happiness when she oddly understands it. She then looks at her watch, and it shows 8.47 PM. Her eyes widened when she didn't realize that she already spent long hours there.

"It's already passed 8.PM?!"

She quickly gets up and packs her stuff in the bag. Jungwon looked at her in confusion when she suddenly rushed. "It's already late, Yerim. Why not you just sleep here?" suggested him, though it's not even late night yet but it's kinda worrying him when she's going home alone at night.

"No, thank you. My grandma waiting for me at home. She's alone if I'm not going home." explains her while wearing her jacket on. Jungwon gets more worried when she's about to leave. He was thinking if he should accompany her or not.

"Then, I'll go with you."

"Huh? Wait, it's fine I can go back by myself."

"It's dangerous for a girl going back by herself."

Replied him right away. Yerim then just let him be, there's no use to fight with him when his mind is already set to do that.

Well, what kind of tutor that willing to accompany you back home because he's worried anything bad happen to you and he said it's dangerous for a girl to go back alone? Yes, it's Yang Jungwon.
