Rivalry Rewritten: Enmity to Intimacy ( Volume: 2)

Eight

Wooyoung had always been a hardworking student, but as mid-term exams rolled around, he knew he needed to step up his game. His boyfriend, Seonghwa, was off for a small class visit to another fashion institute, leaving Wooyoung mostly alone in their dorm. And as much as he loved having Seonghwa around, he couldn't deny that he was grateful for some peace and quiet to focus on his studies.

For the next month, Wooyoung survived on nothing but coffees and small snacks, going in and out of the library in a blur. He was determined to ace his exams and make Seonghwa proud. But as the days went by, he couldn't help but miss his boyfriend's presence. Seonghwa had always been the one to keep him motivated and grounded, and without him, Wooyoung found himself feeling a little lost.

That's when Yunho, his best friend and class fellow , stepped in. He became Wooyoung's emotional support, always there to lend a listening ear and offer words of encouragement. They started studying together, going over their notes and helping each other out with difficult concepts.

The exams themselves were tricky and tough, but Wooyoung and Yunho pushed through each one with determination. They spent long hours in the library, only taking breaks for quick meals and to stretch their legs.

And as the last exam ended, Wooyoung felt a sense of relief wash over him. He couldn't believe he had made it through, with Yunho's help and support.

As they walked out of the hall, Wooyoung and Yunho hugged each other tightly, squealing with excitement. They were overjoyed that mid-term exams were finally over. They talked excitedly about their plans for the evening, deciding to go for a BBQ to celebrate their freedom. Wooyoung couldn't wait to tell Seonghwa all about it when he returned.

Yunho: "Man, I am so relieved that the midterm exams are finally over. I can't wait to just relax for the next two months."

Wooyoung: (smiling) "I know right? It was so stressful studying for those exams. But we did it, we survived."

Yunho: "Yeah, and I aced my math exam thanks to your help. You're a lifesaver, Wooyoung."

Wooyoung: (laughs) "Don't mention it. We make a great study duo. But let's not celebrate too soon, we still have our final term exams coming up."

Yunho: (frowning) "Oh, I forgot about that. But come on, let's not think about exams for now. Let's just enjoy the fact that we have two whole months to relax."

Wooyoung: (nodding) "You're right, we should focus on the present. So, what are your plans for the summer break?"

Yunho: "I'm planning to travel with my family. We're going to Jeju Island. How about you?"

Wooyoung: "I'll be interning at a marketing firm. It's a great opportunity and I can't wait to gain some practical experience. As I told you before, I'm not gonna be going back home just yet."

Yunho: (impressed) "Wow, that's amazing. You always seem to have your future planned out. I'm still figuring out what I want to do after graduation."

Wooyoung: "Don't worry, you'll figure it out. You always do."

They continue walking, enjoying the cold night breeze and the beautiful scenery.

Yunho: (pointing at a nearby ice cream truck) "Hey, let's get some ice cream to celebrate the end of exams."

Wooyoung: (excitedly) "Yes! I've been craving for some ice cream. Let's go!"
They both run towards the ice cream truck, laughing and talking about their favorite flavors.

Yunho: "I'm glad we have such a great friendship, Wooyoung. It's nice to have someone to share these special moments with."

Wooyoung: (smiling) "I feel the same way, Yunho. We've been through a lot together and I'm grateful to have you as a friend."
