Sunday morning. No classes, no assembly meetings, no everything. Just a simple Sunday morning, a very great day for me to rest.

I feel so energetic today. Usually, every morning, I feel like a zombie that got up from its grave. But, it's kinda different today.

I'll look forward to what's going to happen in a positive manner.

I made my bed, did my morning routine in my bathroom, change my pyjamas into a more decent-looking clothing then went downstairs for some breakfast.

"Good morning umma" I greeted my mom who's busy cooking breakfast.

"Morning dear."

"Where are the others?" I asked as I poured fresh milk in my glass.

"Your father got an emergency meeting, Lizzy's still sleeping. I think that girl is so exhausted. Hyunwoo... he insisted on buying some ingredients for me in the supermarket. I told him that I can do it but he still insisted. You wouldn't mind, right?"

"Me? No, of course not." I sat on the dining chair while fiddling with the glass. "Umma.. I met Seoyoung yesterday."

"Really? Eodi?" She asked, her back still facing me since she's cooking.

"At the event. She's also there."

"Ah.. she went all the way from Seoul to attend that event? Geez, you really would do anything for those boys, huh? You two really are bestfriends."

"Actually...." I shut up for a minute, thinking of my next words. "....she went there for free."

"Jinjja?! That's good. Whoever treated her must be rich."

"Her boyfriend surely is rich." I replied.

"Boyfriend?! She has a boyfriend?!" She quickly turned to face me, seeing if I'm telling the truth or not. I just nodded since she can see it. "But I thought she promised that she will never have a boyfriend unless it's that guy from that group? What's his name again?"

"Jimin." I answered.

"Ah. Yeah... well I guess she already gave up."

"Honestly... that is her boyfriend." I simply told her.

"You've got to be kidding me." Her voice kinda went loud.

"Ani, umma. I'm not joking. He really is her boyfriend. They've been together even before I left Seoul." I explained.

"But... how?"



Shit. I shouldn't have told her. Now I have to tell her the whole story, even mine that I always wanted to be forgotten.


I roam my eyes around the room, thinking of the best words and best way to deliver the story to her.

I suddenly heard her turn off the stove then grabbed a chair and sat beside me. "You're not telling me something, I can see it in your eyes. Tell me... did something happen while we're gone?"

"N-no, umma. I'm just... rethinking of how those two met, that's all." I gave her a reassuring smile but I know she's not buying it, but she still nodded.

"Alright. If you say so. So tell me, how did your bestfriend got his prince charming." She asked excitedly.

I chuckled at her actions so I did tell her afterwards, but I decided that some parts must be left untold. And those parts are about me and him. She must not know it because I don't want to think about it again. To deal with it again.
