Bomi's POV:

And there he was.

I was walking to school again - I already knew that I was going to be late, since I missed the bus and I spotted Jisung on his way to school as well.
After he told me that he wanted to be my friend I ignored him, I know, it's mean, but I panicked.

My attempt to hide didn't go as planned since he saw me and ran up to me.
Good job, Bomi, now you have to explain, why you didn't text him back.

"Hi, Bomi! Why didn't you text back yesterday?" He rubbed his neck and I sighed.

Now you have to lie, good job.

"My phone died." Best excuse ever - I must say. He narrowed his eyes before giving me a short nod.

"Did you miss the bus?" I gave him a nod and continued walking, with him right behind me.

"What's your favorite subject?" And he begins.

"I don't know." I kept looking forward and
didn't stop walking.

"Why are you trying to push me away? I just want to be your friend." He looked away and I swallowed the lump in my throat.
What do I do? Should I run for it?
"I-" The words I wanted to say were stuck in my throat - I actually didn't even know what to say.

Before even thinking I ran away, ran away from my problems like I've always done.
The guilt forming in my stomach wasn't helping my thumping heart - it wasn't because of him, but because I ran.
My heart was beating so fast when I stepped into the school and the halls were empty.

What a great day it is today.

The bell rang signaling, that the day was over and Dahye walked over to me.

"Why were you late? You're almost never late, your mom is going to flip!" She exclaimed to which I shrugged.
"Missed the bus.." My eyes widened, when I had said that and I packed my things really quickly before rushing out of the classroom.

"Don't miss the bus again, Bomi." I mumbled as I continued to run towards the bus, which was still standing still.

Just as I let out a sigh of relief I heard someone shout my name - which was just to my luck Jisung.

My eyes widened even more - if that was possible and I ran into the bus, right before its doors closed.

I was breathing heavily and I leaned back into the seat.
At least I didn't miss the bus.

It's weird how messed up my life became after I met Jisung - not like it wasn't messed up before, but now I'm panicking in the bus, not knowing what to do when I see him again - if I see him again.

I started scrolling through my phone to distract myself from the guilt I felt. I never rejected anyone like this before, it's just because, he's a guy and I don't think I'm ready to be his friend.

Should I text him? I shook my head and slapped my cheek slightly before finding his number.

'Give me some time..' I instantly regretted sending it because, why? What kind of sentence is that - give me time, so I can figure out how to talk with you.

Wow, I'm one of a kind, I must say. I walked out of the bus, when it had reached the park, to sit by the fountain. The fountain was beautiful and I threw at least ten coins in it every week.

I have a lot of wishes, I wished to be able to talk to guys and I got the chance to talk with one, I'm just kind of messing everything up. My phone's vibration interrupted my thoughts and I looked at it.

'Take all the time you need.' Well that was easier than expected, if I have to be honest.

How could he be so nice after I rejected him so many times? Maybe he isn't a monster, like mom would call him. Maybe I should give him a chance or maybe not, because what if it's one of those tricks, so he can use me later?

I began heading home and decided to sleep over it. My head was beginning to hurt, maybe I was overthinking a bit.

"You didn't miss the bus today?" I crossed my arms and shook my head as she gave me a forehead kiss.

"Good, how was your day?" I shrugged and sat down on a chair as she poured a cup of coffee. She sat down in front of me and I sighed before looking at her.

"Why are boys monsters?" She froze with the cup against her lips and she placed it on the table before looking me dead in the eye.
"Seo Bomi, have you talked with a guy?" I quickly shook my head, making her nod and she leaned back in her chair.
"We've already talked about this.." She sighed and I crossed my arms again.

"But are all guys monsters?" She looked at me with this suspicious look before nodding and I gave up.
"Every single one of them.." I gave her a short nod before walking into my room.

Jisung's POV:

"So many girls at the school wants to be your friend, but you want to befriend a girl, who doesn't even care about your existence?" Donghyuck gave me this look while raising his eyebrows and I nodded.

"Yeah.." He face palmed and I crossed my arms.
"Are you okay? Do we need to take you to the doctors?" Jaemin pinched my cheek and I slapped his hand away.

"Leave the boy alone." Mark sighed and I smiled.
"You don't think it's weird?" Mark looked at me before looking away and Donghyuck snickered. "I didn't say that." I rolled my eyes and looked at my phone which, just then, vibrated with a message.

'Give me some time..' Wait, what? What does she mean?

"Oh, Jisung has girl problems!" Jaemin pinched my cheek again and this time I slapped it away, a lot harder.

"What should I say?" I rubbed my neck and Mark read the text.
"Take all the time you need, or something along the lines!" I thanked him and started to write a reply.

I showed it to Mark who nodded and I pressed send.

'Take all the time you need.'

I hope that's good enough.
