Hera's POV
The name is Ji Hyeran, but people call me Hera. 3rd year of college. Yes, I'm a rich kid, actually an heir, but people beside my family don't know that I'm one. If they'll know that I'm the daughter of the owner of Asia's biggest finance company, I'm sure my name will be on the everyday news and newspapers, so it's better like this. That's the thing I'm hiding deeply under my sleeves, except for having singing lessons when I was in China. You'll know me better, when you meet my bestfriend Baekh--

"Hera!" Speaking of. Baekhyun, called my name. I look at him and I know what he wants... my math notebook. I took my bag and open it, then get the said the notebook.

I give it to Baekhyun. "Thank you." He said playfully and smiled as he sits beside me. That smile that didn't fail to make my heart jump.

"Anyway..." He said, and stops copying the- my answers, to look at me.

"Hera, would you like to go to the brand new arcade on the mall?" He asks, and his excitement can be seen. I thought of what's my schedule later. I remember that dad and oppa has come here in Korea from China, that means I can't.

"Later? Hm, I don't think I can Baek." I answered and shove my cellphone from my pocket, to have something to put my attention to.

"Wae? It's my treat though." He asks, disappointed. I look up from my phone and put my gaze to him. I can't tell him about dad. I know he's my bestfriend, so I can share these private things, but that made it even more complicated. What if he'll know... I'm sure he will change how he treats me, and I don't want that to happen.

"Baekhyun-ah, can't we do it tomorrow? I just had something to do later." I answered. I'm always joining this kind of trip with him, but I really can't today.

"Tss.. What is it that made you choose it over me?" He said, and looked down on his notebook to continue copying. That was cheesy, but I'm used to him being like that. He's saying cheesy things without any cheesy feelings.

"Aigoo~" I said, and ruffles his hair. He stops my hand, by shoving it away.

"Yah. Stop messing with my hair." He said, and I can feel that he's angry about the decision I made. Anyway it's around 10:30am, so we dont have our class yet, which we'll start on 11am. We just have one subject today as it's almost Christmas break, and the university is not that attentive in this time.

I chuckled by his expression. "Just this once... I really need to do this." I said.

"What will you 'need' to do?" He asks, and made an emphasis to 'need'. This is my first time not allowing myself to join him, but it's not like I dont want to, I have to.

"Aish.. Do I really need to explain that?" I said, and think of making him smile again... Hm, I'm sure he'll let me go when I do that. A smirk was formed on my lips as I'd thought of a plan to escape this conclusion. I put my hand on my notebook. "If you want to.." I said, slowly pulling my notebook off his armchair.
