MINE (MICHAENG)

Chapter 4

MINA

I sat boredly inside the classroom, staring outside of the window, wondering how those bricks were formed in an equal length. Do the manufacturers use rulers?

Then, how are rulers made straight?
Maybe it's not straight, but some kind of illusion that made it look straight because it was introduced to us as straight. Does it work for people too?

"Hey!" Momo called behind me which broke my trance.

Turning around, I saw her smiling face directed at me. I reciprocated it with my own lips as I asked,

"What is it?"

"How about an arcade after school?" She giggled,

I bobbed my head up and down. Sana suddenly popped beside me. Sometimes I wonder how is she this tall when I'm older. It's true that age doesn't matter... In height.

"I wanna come too!" She whined to me, because Momo won't agree with her to come. They sort of hate each other but in a friendly way. I don't know if that makes sense.

"Oh come on, Sana. Don't you have a cheerleading practice?" Momo groaned.

Sana gave her a menacing look, "No I don't."

"Fine, you should come." I sigh,

Sana showed her ring finger to Momo in a teasing way, a smirk on her face. Momo scoffed, slumping her back to the chair to lurk.

CHAEYOUNG

"DONT WAIT, I'LL BE HOME LATE."

Again? Mina is often going home late these days. Is it because of school works? Yes. That's the reason. She said school made her stay awake on the middle of the night and cause her to get home late. Stupid school is overworking my poor baby.

I sprawled down to Mina's bed and dialed a number.

"Hello?"

I cleared my throat. "Hey, Tzu. You see, about that University where Mina goes--"

"Chaeyoung, we've talked about this. The principal doesn't want to sell his School, alright?" She complained, hearing a shuffling sounds of paper.

I sneered, "Not even when I tripled the price?"

"Nope. Over his dead body"

I let out a neigh, about to end the call when she spoke again,

"And by the way, Miss President, If you have time, why don't you visit here once in a while." It was obviously sarcastic, I snorted at this. "Seriously, Chaeyoung you've been neglecting your work for what? Going at your girlfriend's apartment? Kind of immature if you ask me."

I stretched out my limbs as I stared at the ceiling.

"I know. But, it's hard not to see her."

"You're acting as if you just got a relationship with her." I could imagine Tzuyu's disbelief look.

I'm confused to myself as well. Is it not normal to constantly yearn for Mina? Though I'm not really like this before.

"I just always want to hold her." I reasoned out, my eyelids getting heavy.

I heard her chuckled on the other line, "Whipped... I'm ending the call now."

I nonchalantly threw my phone beside me as I get drowsy. When is Mina coming home? I hugged the pillow, the one that has her scent. I buried my face on it, sniffing until I stopped.

I sat up.

What is that?

I took the pillow again, smelling it's covers and I was right.
