It's daytime. Neither the moon nor the star could be seen right then. The only planet shining bright at the time was the sun, standing proudly in the middle of the solar system.

Nonetheless, the moon and the star were still special. More special than the other humans out there.

Our star and moon were also normal human beings. They went to schools just like anyone else but did they like going there? No one really did.

Jimbae went to school not to learn but to make friends. Such a chatterbox he was! While Joe barely went to university. But when he did, all eyes would be on him. It was nothing unusual.

The moon or the star might not shine as much at daytime as night but they were still special and caught eyes.

But not everyone could be a nightowl. That's why probably there were people who were jealous of the star, so much that they hated Jimbae.

Jimbae had entered his school gate and he immediately found his friends. Best friend Title. Jimbae had first gotten along with Title a year ago, when they were still part of the blacklist gang of their teacher.

But since the mystery of Phi Fah got solved, things changed. Jimbae was still the chatterbox but the others came quiet. Maybe things were too hard to process for them. So the only people that ended up still staying best friends with Jimbae were of course, Title and Traffic.

And if Jimbae was close to them, he had to be close to their lovers too, Cupcake and Melon. Jimbae always found their names amusing. Not only those two but almost everyone in their group: Cupcake, Melon, Orange, Carrot that's probably why they were known as the food gang.

Anyways, Jimbae's relationship with Carrot was going quite great as well. Except she always made quite a scene when she was scared or upset but that was not that big of a problem.

Jimbae walked his way to his class while Title wrapped his arm around his shoulder, leaning his weight on him. Jimbae slowly greeted everyone with, as always, the biggest smile on his face.

But when his eyes turned to Carrot, she looked upset. It wasn't unusual. Almost everything made her upset but there was another expression on her face other than just upset, concern. She didn't even notice Jimbae staring at her.

During lunch break, Carrot called Jimbae to come to the corridor around the school. They both stood there silently for a few minutes until Carrot spoke up, "Jimbae... I am sorry." Jimbae still wore that smile on his face until that phrase came out of her mouth. Starting the conversation with such a phrase got him concerned, afraid that there's something wrong.

"Why are you saying sorry?" Jimbae asked, his brow furrowed as he lifted his face to look at Carrot in the eyes. She looked guilty and concerned.

"I think we should break up," She muttered out of nowhere. Jimbae didn't understand why she said such a thing. He was confused.

"Why?" Jimbae asked, his brows furrowed even more. His face looked so different than his usual wide smile that he looked almost like a different person.

"My dad's sending me away to Bangkok. I don't think I can do this anymore," Carrot murmured, looking down at her shoes. Her legs were shaking and so was her hands.

"But we're still in Thailand. We can make it work!" Jimbae's voice raised just a little bit as he took Carrot's right hand and rubbed it. "Why are you doing this?" Jimbae asked, his voice soft as he took a deep breath to calm himself down.
