I tapped my feet on the ground anxiously. It was already almost 15 minutes since I was standing in front of the school gate. "Still not arrive yet?" I sighed. I crossed my arms and then looked around. But I still didn't find what I had been waiting for. Suddenly, someone pats my shoulder. "Boo!" I gasped. I turned back to see who was that. "Yeonjun, you surprised me!" I pouted. He shrugged his shoulder and giggled. "What are you doing here?" He looked at me with a confused look. I looked down and sighed. "I'm waiting for him." His eyes widened, he crossed his arms and glared at me. "Damn, harin. Again?"

He put his arms on my shoulder and looked at me. "Listen, I'll always support you since I'm your best friend. But I don't think this will end up into something between you both." His expression looked very serious. I've never seen that expression before. I couldn't help but chuckle. He raised his eyebrows. "What so funny?" I flicked his nose, "Trying to be a teacher now?" He rolled his eyes and then sticking out his tongue towards me. He looked at his watch. "Gosh, our class starts in 5 minutes!" He swung his backpack on his shoulder and then grabbed my wrist. "Come on harin, we're gonna be late!" I pulled my arm from him. "But.." I looked around left and right. But I still didn't find what I'm looking for. "See? He doesn't come. Let's come in, don't think about that stupid rat." I felt very disappointed. Yeonjun pulled my back slowly to instruct me to walk in. ''he doesn't come? is he sick?" I looked back for once again. Yet nothing. I sighed. I nodded slowly and then walked into class with Yeonjun.

"See you, yeonjun!" I walked back home after did our farewell. I held my books in my arms. I wonder, why didn't he come to school today. Is he sick?

I kicked a stone in front of me. I snorted. I would be lying if yeonjun's words didn't affect me. He was really mean for saying that, but at the same time, I didn't think he was wrong tho. It's been so long, but he even didn't know my name. I shook my head. I didn't want to think about that, or it would make me feel so lost.

When I was walking, I saw someone in front of me drop his thing. I didn't know what was that, it was like a polaroid? I took it and then came to him. "I'm sorry, but you dropped this." I smiled then handed it to him. He took off his headset and then turned back. I gasped. It was him.

"Beomgyu?"

My heart was pounding really fast. I wish he didn't hear my heartbeat. I was a little bit shaking because of nervousness. He looked down and saw that polaroid in my hand. He nodded and took it from me. He gave me a faint smile then turned back again. He started to walk away, but I suddenly grabbed the corner of his grey hoodie. "Wait, where were you?" He looked back and tilted his head with a confused look. "I mean, why didn't you come to school today?" He stayed silent for a while. He raised his eyebrows. 

"Who are you?"

Oh, that's right. How could I forget he didn't even know me.
