I sat in the dining room and watched as my sister made breakfast for us. I watched as she happily smiled and brought the food over to the table.

"You seem happy today," I say as I take sip of my tea. She looks up at me and slightly blushes and smiles.

"Ah, really?" She says and I furrow my eyebrows.

"What happened with Hoseok last night?" I say. She smiles and sits across from me while crossing her legs.

"We're dating," she says with a big smile. My eyes widen and I nearly choke on my food.

"W-what?" I say and she nods.

"Really?!" I scream and jump off my seat and to her side.

"I'm so happy for you!" I say as I hug her. She hugs me back and laughs.

I sit back in my seat, eagerly, to ask her questions but I look at the time. If I don't leave now, I might miss my bus. I quickly get up and quickly eat the rest of my food.

"I wanted to hear about what had happened last night," I say with a pout as I get up from my seat and grab my bag.

"I'll tell you after school once I get back from work," she says and I put my shoes on and leave the house.

I walk to my bus, happily, knowing that now my sister will be happy and her love life can be at ease. I should ask Hoseok about what had happened last night. I smile brightly thinking about the two. I wonder how Hoseok melted her heart so easily.

My smile soon disappears once I reach my bus stop. My eyes start to go teary as I see Xiumin and a girl standing next to each other. Holding hands. I was only gone for a day and already he's found a girlfriend. Wasn't that the girl he said who helped him with his science homework? Mary? Why were they holding hands? Does he like her too?

Blood boiled in me and I started to feel angrier by watching them flirt with each other. She was so clingy on him and I was getting annoyed. I clenched my fist, trying to release all the anger inside of me. I tried to feel angrier than upset but I knew I couldn't because I was just jealous. Jealous that this girl was holding hands with my first love. Is this why he ignored all my messages and calls? Because he was with another girl? Was he embarrassed of me?

In the corner of my eye, I could see the bus coming and I quickly walked over to it, trying to avoid the couple. Tears nearly fell from my eyes but I quickly wiped them away. I need to be strong or else he'll just think I'm weak. I can't look weak in front of him, I just couldn't.

I sat in a seat and looked ahead, hoping that when he passed me I could ignore him. I saw him hop onto the bus with Mary by his side. His eyes connected with mine and he looked afraid and pitiful. Is he pitying me? In that moment, I wished looks could kill. I wish I never fell for him. I again clenched my fist and turned and looked straight ahead, ignoring his pitiful stares.

Once he walked past me, I could feel my tears in my eyes well up again and I quickly wiped them but they wouldn't stop. They kept pouring down my cheeks. I put my hand over my mouth, hoping no sound would come out. Thankfully, it didn't.

We reached our school and we all got off. I walked into school with a blank face and hoped that was all the drama for today. I walked to my locker and put my things in there. From down the hall, I saw Hoseok walking to his locker. He had a small smile and I knew it had to do with something about my sister and him. He got his books and saw the couple walk past him. His eyes which were full of happiness were quickly replaced with anger. He quickly walked over to my locker and looked at me with worry.
