"I'm his ex,"

"W-what?" I widened my eyes at her. "Y-you're kidding me right?"

"No. That's why I'm warning you to stay away from him," she said, giving me a dead serious look. "He is cruel and dangerous. And I've experienced it Jiwoo. I was just making you to find out if he had been causing all that crap in the class just because I was scared. But now I see you getting too attached to him, and I'm worried,"

I stay stood firmly before I regained my voice. "I don't care if he's cruel or dangerous in your eyes. Because in mine, he's just a broken boy," my voice wavered a little. "So if you'll excuse me, I'll be going now,"

Clutching tightly onto the straps of my backpack, I headed out whilst purposely bumping into YooJung's shoulder.

third person.

YooJung gaped at the walking figure of Jiwoo and then turned to Taehyung who had just secretly witnessed the scene. She gave him an apologetic look and spoke.

"I'm sorry Tae, I tried my best," she let out a sigh, slumping her shoulders.

"It's okay," he replied, his gaze softening as he saw Jiwoo's figure disappear. "I guess it's all up to me now huh... She would stay away from me if I told her I stole it off her... Right?"

"Probably yeah," the girl replied.

Taehyung turned to his cousin who seemed to be concerned about this. Hardening his expressions again, he gave YooJung a curt nod before heading out the classroom. The girl watched his retreating form and sighed, leaving the classroom as well.

"I'm back!" I shouted, pulling my shoes off then placing them on the racks.

"Oh, I was about to go out to buy food," Yoongi oppa popped out with a hoodie and knee length shorts. "Appa isn't coming back today... And I can't be stuffed to buy food so yeah. Wanna tag along?"

"Sure, just lemme go get changed," I said, running upstairs.

Throwing my uniform off, I slipped on a pair of jeans and wore a hooded long sleeve on top. I grabbed my phone and purse, then headed downstairs again. By the time I reached the living room, I spotted my cousin dozing off on the couch with his arms crossed over his chest. In amusement, I quickly snapped a photo with my phone and then went over to wake him up.

"Oppa, wake up,"

I gently shook him and the mint haired boy lazily sat up properly, rubbing his eyes. I thought to myself how well he could fall asleep at any situations.

When Yoongi oppa was finally physically and mentally awaken, the two of us headed outside. The moment I set my foot outside, I was greeted by the cold autumn breeze and instantly shivered, goosebumps forming on my arms and legs.

"Are you cold?"

I turned to my cousin who seemed to have gotten himself an extra jumper to wear, along with a beanie. As he was about to slip off his military patterned parka off, I stopped him by placing my hand on his.

"Ani! I'm okay. You know I'm the type who doesn't get cold easily," I gave him a small smile, rejecting his offer.

The two of us walked into the street markets and bought ourselves a cup of ddeokbboki, mayak Kimbap and egg buns. We headed to the small plastic tables in front of a nearby convenience store and started eating.

Whilst chewing my food, I couldn't help but let my inner mind think about Taehyung. My necklace, I had definitely seen it dangling out of his blazer pockets, and I wasn't in any doubt. But why had he done it was my question. If it wasn't YooJung's intention, was YooJung's words true?
