Chapter 7 - The Fight

3 weeks later...

Today is the day when her class will held a camping project as promised. As Yerin was preparing her clothes, Rocky comes to pick her up unexpectedly.

"Yerin-ah, there's Rocky downstairs. He said he wants to go to school with you. So yeah, I told him to wait." Younghyun, her brother informed, and she just mouthed 'Okay' to him.

"Ah, Yerin, don't you ever think that he likes you? Perhaps." Her brother asked teasingly.

"He likes me but I can't." She said coldly as she just put every her clothes into her suitcase. "I'm going, Younghyun Oppa."

"Call me as soon as you arrive!" he shouted as she's already with Rocky in front of the house gate.

As they arrive at the gathering spot at school, suddenly Shin approaches them and greets "Oh Rocky." "Hi, Yerin."

"Oh hi, Shin!" Yerin greeted back. Then Moonbin rushed towards her.

"Yerinie~" he hugs her tightly, and suddenly smelling her hair. "You smell so good~ I miss you~" he whined.

"We've just met yesterday, Bin." She rolled her eyes. And he whined again while swinging her hand.

"Yerin-ah, let's go." Rocky snatches her hand from Moonbin.

But he brought her to the end of school coridor first instead to the bus. And he pushed her against the wall. And places his hands to support himself beside her head.

"W-what are you doing, Minhyuk-ah?" she stuttered.

"Tell me what happened between you and Moonbin!" he yelled angrily. "I told you he confessed to me!" she yelled louder than him. "But you still haven't accepted him yet, right?!"

"I think I'm about to." She said coldly to him. And he says "Don't, please." Then he crashed his lips against hers, angrily.
She tried to push him but failed, and he kissed her more and more instead got off her. And finally he let go of her, but still locking her body between his arms onto the wall. "Stop it, Rocky! It's not because you kissed me so you could replace his place!" she yelled angrily.

"Can you just take a look at me, Yerin-ah?! I've been loving you since 3 years ago, and you've never looked at me the same way as I am!" and he ruffled his hair wildly. Due to his short-tempered, he suddenly loses his control, and surprisingly punched the wall beside her head with his right fist. And that scared her until she was trembling.

"Oh then don't you remember what have you done to me 4 years ago? You dated Kim Yerim! The School Queen, who bullies people anytime she wants to. And do you know what have she done to me? She did that to me too so that I wasn't keep staying by yourside those years! And what worse for me? I used to love you too! And then you ruined our friendship more just because you didn't want her to be jealous! Was that easy for me? Oh trust me, Rocky you don't feel what I've been through those years before, right now. It's not in the same case, Minhyuk-ah. Oops, should I called you Minhyuk-ssi? Because I don't recognize this new side of you." She almost cried. But he just stood there, speechless by her story.

"Please don't cry here! I'm really sorry that I've never had even a single clue of you having a crush on me those years. Why haven't you told me? We could have been already together if you did." And she slapped him.

"You think I'm that easy? So you could accept anyone who confessed their feelings to you whenever you like to? I'm sorry but I'm not like you, Minhyuk-ssi." And then she goes, leaving him there, while crying herself out. But when she arrived near the bus, Moonbin approached her.

"What happened, Yerin-ah?" he soothed her while caressing her back as she's crying. And she hugs him immediately. So there's no choice for him to not embrace her in his arms, and keep caressing her back.
