Haerin lay on her bed, with her phone in hand, she scrolled through her social media feed, her thumb pressing on photos and updates
Just then, the door swung open, and Sungho, her older bother, burst in, wearing his bike helmet, "Haerin! Get up! You're coming to watch my race today!" he said, grabbing her blanket and dragging her off the bed.
She sighed and stood up, "Do I have to? I have things to do," she replied, sounding disinterested.
"Yes! You need to support your brother!" Sungho shot back, grinning at her.
"Fine!" Haerin said, rolling her eyes. She quickly changed into something comfortable.

At the bike racing field,
The air buzzed with excitement as racers prepared for the competition. Sungho waved goodbye, rushing off to meet some friends. "Stay here, okay? I'll be right back!"
"Yeah, okay" Haerin muttered.
As the minutes passed, Haerin's patience began to wear thin. She pulled out her phone, checking for messages, but there was nothing to distract her. "Where is he?" she mumbled, glancing around for any sign of Sungho.
Growing restless, she decided to find him. Pushing through people, she went towards the starting line, where the racers were beginning to gather.
Suddenly, a bike whizzed past her, nearly colliding with her shoulder. "What the fuck!" she yelped.
The rider skidded to a halt, and took off his helmet, his expression a mix of anger and disbelief.
He was tall, with tousled dark hair that framed his sharp features, giving him an effortlessly handsome look. His fitted black racing jersey hugged his frame, while the black bike gleamed under the sun.
"Why are you standing there? Don't you have eyes?" he snapped, his voice dripping with irritation.
Haerin raised her eyebrows, "Excuse me? You almost knocked me over!" she shot back, crossing her arms.
"Maybe if you weren't blocking the path, I wouldn't have almost hit you," he said, getting off his bike and walking towards her.
"Seriously? You're going to blame me for your reckless riding?" Haerin said in annoyance.
" Just pay attention next time!" he spat, glaring at her before getting on his bike.
Haerin stared at him being irritated.
What a jerk!
She shook her head, deciding it wasn't worth her energy to fight with him and she began to walk away.
He rolled his eyes and wore his helmet, but something on the ground caught his eyes.
A bracelet?
He crossed his eyebrows, looking confused. He got off his bike and took the bracelet from the ground.
It must be hers.
He then looks around to find Haerin but couldnt find her.
Meanwhile,
Haerin finally spotted Sungho chatting with his friends. "There you are!" she called out, walking to him. "What took you so long?"
"Just catching up! And the race is about to start" Sungho replied.
"Sure, l'll go take a seat then" Haerin said and walked away.
As the race started, She cheered for her brother. Sungho rode fiercely, pushing past the other riders.
After the race, Sungho ended up in second place. He then joined Haerin.
"I'm in the second place!" he said with a huge smile while Haerin gave him a bottle of water. "Congrats!", Haerin said smiling widely.
Just then, she spotted a figure standing a few meters behind Sungho, in a black outfit and a black helmet.
Oh, that's the rude rider who almost ran me over a while ago
Haerin recognized him immediately. She turned to Sungho, curiosity shining in her eyes. "Who's that guy?"
Sungho glanced over his shoulder, looking at the direction she indicated.
"Oh, that's Taesan"
