Heyy guys, this chapter is gonna be full Minsung because I have nothing else to do so I hope you like it~~ 😀

HAN'S POV

  "Chang-binnie!"
I yelled as I left my class, running up to Chang-bin and my other friends, Kai, Soobin, and I.N,
  "Han~ we were waiting for you!"
Chang-bin said as he chuckles, I flashed a smile at my other friends,
  "Heyy~ How are you guys today!"
  "Doing good, thank you!"
Soobin said as he returns the smile back to me,
  "We're fine! How about you?"
I.N added and the conversation goes on until it was time for the next period. Just like that, it was a normal day at school. Meeting up with friends, studying, having to face fucking Hyunjin and his stupid friends! And the only thing which was different is not having Felix's presence around, it made me upset because he was always by my side but... I'll let it slide this time because he's having a fever. Oh, and of course, my crush! Me and Lee Know were like the Hi-and-Bye type of friends, we weren't that close but atleast we know eachother. I just get really mad when I see Lee Know with that asshole, yes, Hyunjin...   (I can't believe I'm calling THE Hwang Hyunjin as an asshole 🥲😭) 
  It's just that life seems so hard and incomplete without Felix of course.. After completing my classes, I decided to show up at that same arcade where I meet Lee Know everytime. I don't know why the arcade seems so special to him but~ atleast I get to see him everyday. So, today, after coming back from College, I was just spending time till 5:00 and then I got up to get ready, to see Lee Know of course. I chose some outfit which would look good on me, it was a pair of jeans and that same hoodie I wore for college that day,

The look

I took off as it was time to leave and as I reached the arcade, I surprisingly saw Hyunjin waiting near the entrance. I quickly hid behind a wooden bench and observed what he was doing. I guess he was waiting for Lee Know as he didn't arrive yet... After a few minutes, of literally hiding from Hyunjin, Lee Know finally arrived and he greeted Hyunjin with a smile, it made my blood boil... I listened intently to their greetings and when they entered the arcade, I slowly made my way out of the hiding spot but because I've been hiding for too long, my bones pained and I stumbled. I just paused as the people around me watched. I got up slowly and acted normal as I entered the arcade, trying to act as natural as possible even though I looked like a goofy-ass clumsy spy. I just went to some game section and observed Hyunjin and Lee Know's interaction intently, even though I was jealous... I got too distracted that after sometime, Lee Know noticed that I was staring at him and he glanced at me. I felt a flutter in my heart as I quickly looked away from Lee Know, knowing that his eyes were still on me. I just turned around and continued playing the games, trying to ignore his intense gaze on me... Gosh, why is he so cute..~ and come on, why is he staring at me like that? It's making me nervous...
I thought as I pretended to mind my own business, he was still staring at me!
  "Minho, what are you looking at?"
Wait... Minho? Did Hyunjin call Lee Know as Minho?
  "Oh, yeah... It's nothing, anyways -"
My eyes slightly widened in confusion and surprise. Did Hyunjin mean... Lee Know is actually Lee Minho? No, there's no way! I'm probably overthinking... I thought, as I started fidgeting with the fabric of my hoodie. I glanced back at Lee Know and Hyunjin as they continued speaking, I was still confused...

------------------------

As time passes by, I heard Hyunjin referring Lee Know as Minho mostly which just made me doubt him more... I mean, Minho and Lee Know do have a bit of similarities... But they have huge differences. Are they the same people? Did Lee Know change his name or something like that, or is it just a nickname? It was not possible... I closely and intently continued listening to their conversations,
  "Remember that day at 9th grade where you fought with some delusional bitch?"
  "Oh wait, you mean Sana right? Gosh, I hated her... (I'm sorry guys 😭)"
Hyunjin chuckled and I raised an eyebrow, Wait... I think I'm finally getting all the pieces together... That was Lee Minho, the one who hated Sana! I widened my eyes in surprise again and couldn't believe it at first... Was my crush one of Felix's bully this whole time? Why didn't he ever tell me!
  "Yeah, but damn, she's a hottie now,"
I heard Lee Know chuckle in response and I put a hand over my mouth. My heart felt like it just broken into bits! My feeling for Lee Know kind of faded away slowly,
  "Hey, notice how Jisung keeps looking at me?"
Lee Know whispered to Hyunjin but I heard it since I was a bit close to them. I quickly turned away and tried minding my own business, knowing that Hyunjin and Lee Know- I mean... Minho, had their eyes on me... I heard Hyunjin chuckle and whisper back to Lee Know. I didn't know what to do now, I already have feelings for Lee- I mean Minho now!
  "Don't you know that Han has feelings for you?"
Hyunjin exposed quietly but which I heard clearly. My face quickly flushed, I wanted to escape! I just started fidgeting and I bit my nails. I tried to walk away,
  "Wait up, Jisung!"
I heard Minho call out for me and my voice got stuck in my throat... I slowly turned around and smiled awkwardly, just to see the smirking Hyunjin and confused Minho,
  "Y-yeah?"
I said, trying to sound firm and bold but my voice betrayed me. I stuttered instead which made Hyunjin's smirk widen. Gosh, I just wished that a knife stabbed me right now!
  "Is it true...?"
  "..What is true?
Minho narrowed his eyes on what I said, but I tried to best to sound unsuspecting,
  "I think you know exactly what I'm talking about, Han Jisung..."
Lee Know said and I gulped, not finding any words to reply back. I just stood there and paused, trembling slightly as Minho closed the distance between us,
  "Do you like me?"
Minho asked, tilting his head slightly and looking straight into my eyes. I gulped and tried to avoid eye contact with him but he forces me to look up at him,
  "Answer me, Jisung..."
Minho added and I was at loss of words, what do I say now? I started fidgeting and my heart started beating faster but thank god! Someone interrupted,
  "Uhm, excuse me? If you're not here to play anything, could you move away?"
It was a pretty girl, wait... I think I find her familiar...
  "Hmm, okay..."
Minho responded casually and moved away, but he got closer to me instead and I took a step back, glancing up at him. I quickly averted my gaze as he looked back at me, a small smirk playing on his lips. The girl just responded with a simple thank you and left, now the awkwardness is back again, shit... I glanced at the girl and she looked back at me, I tried signalling her to help me and she understood,
  "Oh, uhm, excuse me? Sorry again but- Oh, I found you! Come with me, I need to tell you something,"
The girl said as she glances at me, acting like she knows me. She just drags me away leaving Hyunjin and Minho alone and they looked a bit annoyed by the sudden interruption of their fun.
  "Thank you so, so much! Kind lady! Gosh, I can't thank you enough..."
I said and the girl chuckles in response, moving a strand of her hair away from her face,
  "Well, what happened back there?"
She asks and I was hesitant for a moment but then I answered again,
  "Uh, well... It was just that, it was really awkward... I'm sorry but, I can't share it~"
I said nervously and she nods in understanding, I was glad that she understood!
  "It's fine... Well anyways, I'm Nayeon! What's your name?"
My eyes slightly widened when she said her name,
  "Wait... Nayeon? D-do you remember me?"
I asked Nayeon and she was thinking for a moment, before she finally realised,
  "Wait.. Han Jisung? Oh.my.god! How have you been~~!"
She exclaimed in excitement, jumping as she pushed me slightly. You know, typical girl behaviour. I chuckled in response awkwardly,
  "Gosh, it's been a long time... Yeah, I'm doing good. What about you?"
I ask Nayeon, waiting for her response and she chuckles as well,
  "Yeahh~~ I've been doing good~ but still! I can't believe I finally got to see you again~~!"
She exclaimed out again and I laughed at her behaviour. That was Im Nayeon, my old bestfriend back in middle years. We were really close but for higher educations, Nayeon had to shift to another school and we got seperated unfortunately... But we finally get to meet again!
