Maybe I Like You. (MILY)

002

as the day progressed it got more boring, seeing as garam didnt speak as much as she usually would. it was off to yunjin but made sense in a way.

"im bored, skip your detention with me jinjin!" garam finally said as they were walking towards their last period of the day. Drama. "no, my dad would kill me" yunjin replied with shaking her head.

"my mom is gonna kill me but you dont see me complaining. now skip it with me! ill make it worth it promise!" garam said holding out her pinky, that was surprisingly short.

"nope. no way. nuh uh. not today, not ever" yunjin said thinking of more ways to say no. "oh come on! dont be a wuss" garam said grinning silently. "where did you learn that?" yunjin said a little shocked garam knew words in english.

"dont worry about that, my friend taught me, now come on man lets skip detention together!" she said wailing her arms around. "not happening" yunjin sang in a teasing way, giggling as she walked into the class.

the smile yunjin had in her face immediately dropped, and turned into a disgusted one. "why are you here?" yunjin asked harshly. looking at the girl with judging eyes.

"because this is my class..?" the black haired girl responded as though it was obvious. "you never had drama before, so why are you here now, chaewon?" yunjin said, the look of disgust still on her face.

"i switched classes because eunchae takes drama lessons and was alone." chaewon responded through gritted teeth, already dine with the conversation.

"and what about the other one then?" yunjin asked judgementally. "who sakura? she has a free period. she just goes out" chaewon shrugged.

"oo la la! what are we talking about? seems like a fun convo!" garam said as she bounced over to the two 'rivals' with eunchae following her.

"its not a fun convo if its with her" the two girls said in sync. they look at eachother with a frown on their faces "dont copy me!" they said yet again at the same time.

eunchae sighed and face palmed. "you both are like children. how am i younger than the both of you?" she questioned shaking her head while garam just giggled.

"well thats not the point! if you guys were paying attention, miss park said we should be working on that play!" garam giggled at the way the two rivals looked at eachother.

"what play?" chaewon asked tilting her head slightly. "dont do that! your too cute" eunchae squealed as she squished chaewon's cheeks. yunjin just rolled her eyes and walked away from the group. 'theres no way im staying there' she thought to herself.

sadly, garam was far, but never that far. she hopped over to yunjin with a wide smile on her face and sat next to her. "what ya thinking about?" she asked with a little wink.

"ew, never ever do that. ever again." yunjin said with a slightly disgusted look. "ok party pooper. your so boring" garam whined. "what should i do about that?" yunjin said sarcastically.

"i dont know man, but chaewon is more fun to hang out with!" garam sighed. "shut up about her! thats all you ever talk about! why cant we just have a normal conversation? why do you always have to speak about her?" yunjin yelled, her eyebrows knitting themself together and a frown plastering itself on her face.

"oh..ok then.." garam said looking away with a sad look on her face. she slowly got up and walked away from yunjin. "no- garam wait!" yunjin called out but it was of no use. garam was already engaged in a different conversation, most likely about drama.

"thats no way to treat your friend, now is it?" chaewon taunted, a fake laugh leaving her mouth as she looked at yunjin with darkened eyes. "do you want me to yell at you too?" yunjin growled. (a/n: that word is so weird for me to write..)

chaewon slowly shook her head and walked over to eunchae, who was speaking to the teacher. the two girls continued to chat and walk around the classroom until the bell rung, indicating the end of the day.

chaewon and eunchae grabbed their stuff and left the room, still talking about random topics. "do you think that fishes see air?" eunchae asked. chaewon giggled and rolled her eyes in a joking manner, "eunchae, are you hearing yourself?"

"no but like think about it, humans see water but not air. so do you think that fish see air and not water?" eunchae explained with exaggerating hand movements.

chaewon shook her head, "no. i dont think fishes can see air" just as she said that, sakura walked up to them with a weird look, "why are guys talking about fish.." she started.

"she started it" the two said in unison and piinted at eachother. sakura nodded and kept nodding, "i do not have the time for this" she mumbled to herself.

"lets go?" she said when she realised the two girls werent walking with her but instead point their fingers at eachother, a playful glare being sent towards them made them quickly catch up to sakura and the trio walked home together the smiles on their faces not leaving until they had to part ways.

"bye eunchae and sakura, tell your mom i said hi!" chaewon waved at the step-sisters, watching them walk away from her house.

once chaewon entered her home, she was blessed with the smell of a welcoming cinnamon scent, making her feel excited because that scent meant her mom made cinnamon rolls.

"mom? im home!" she yelled and waited for a response. "welcome home darling, im in the kitchen if you need me!" her mother responded, an even wider smile making its way to her face. she replied with a small 'ok' and went to her room.

taking off her uniform and replacing the uncomfortable clothes for some more comfortable clothes. deciding to check her phone quickly before going downstairs.

'29 new messages' was the first notification she saw once she turned in her phone, with a breathy laugh and a shake of her head, she unlocked her phone and went to her messages app.

she checked the group chat of her, sakura and eunchae. replying to a few messages before checking her class group chat, seeing the usual of people asking if there was homework. then she checked the message garam sent because garam usually never texted her.

'theres a party this friday? wanna come with me?' read the message and chaewon felt butterflies at the message. no one had ever asked her to come to a party with them, despite her being known as the princess of the school.

she quickly replied with an 'i would love too' and ran downstairs to tell her mom all about her day, to which her mom was happy to listen.
