Truth was, I knew the answer. I just wanted some time to be next to her really.

Noon came and that meant lunch time. Down in the cafeteria, the group heads down for their meal. As they approach the entrance to the cafeteria their eyes catches Jonghyun strolling down the hall casually like always. Minding his own business, being his cool self.
"Oppa!" Exclaims Bomi, racing over to him.
"W-wait up!" Stutters Seok Jin following after Bomi, both leaving behind Hyeri whom was nowhere near interested.
"Where'd you go?" She swings her arm around his. He didn't budge, but rather he continue walking as if she wasn't there.

Back at the school's rooftop, Jonghyun's lays himself under the sun. Feeling the lit heat over his body as the radiant lights flings off his chest. With his arm over his eyes, feeling the moment. The gap between every breath he took he inhale deeply, letting lose the demons.
Again, he hears the door budging open harshly. Awakening him from his dreamy moment, Jonghyun glances over to look delicately as he lays there breathlessly. His own feelings emerging with the scene. How odd to be feeling such to whom he didn't even know much.
"H-hello?" She answers her phone with her shallow, lifeless voice.

I felt hurt... Seeing Soyeon hurt made me hurt..

"How's Appa doing?" Her voice cracks, unable to detain herself.
He lays there, unable to utter a single word of comfort. Feeling bitter as he watches her cry. Trying too hard to pull herself together. She continues on the phone for the next few minutes, wiping her tears every chance she had.
"Don't cry..." He utters breathless from behind, scaring her from her toes.
"...."
"I said don't cry!" His anger voice raise at her.
"Jonghyun.." Her voice strangely with life and sorrow.
"Wipe your tears. It's bored daylight. Aren't you embarrass at least?" He spoke boldly.
Seconds into hearing his statement she sniffles her nose and wipes her tears confidently away.

We stared in silence for awhile. It was good tho. Things were better than expected.

The next few days flew, yet he never understood the situation. But rather he was glad, she were the one to not hold back and held him to stay. Not a single word came out of the two, but rather her absence.

I felt lonely knowing she wasn't here.

The days went on, she made it back in one piece. Her face weary. Drain of vibe and energy. It were as tho she had a lack of sleep.
In the class room as she taught, Jonghyun lays his head down. Gazing over to her whom seems to not notice him. Whom seems to not even acknowledge his very existence. Sadden deeply to the bones, he tucks his head into his arms resting his eyes.

What happened to her..

Things oddly went by that week. Not a single word from each parties. Not even a glance. Nothing.

"Hyeri, have you seen Jin?" Asks Bomi leaning against her desk.
"He said something about office duties."
"Office duties? Since when was he doing that?"
She shrugs and answers, "I'm not sure. For awhile now?"
With Jonghyun suddenly walking into class, everyone breaks into silence. Gradually picking up pace as they go back into their zones.
"Jonghyun!" Calls out Hyeri walking over to him whom seems out of it grabbing his notebook. With no reply, Hyeri goes on talking to him. "What are you doing? Treat us out to eat?"
Without a word he pulls out cash from his pocket and stuffs them into her hand.
"Eat well."
He leaves without even a goodbye. Confuse as to how much he gave Hyeri, Bomi glances over from behind.
"How much did he give you?"
"115,000 won..?"
"Heol~ are you happy now?"
