"You explained everything to your eomma yesterday?"

Joy was sitting over the edge of the bed, hearing his voice while he is on backstage after another filming. "Hm, tomorrow is our rehearsal for graduation.." She trails off, before feeling a little sad about leaving school that she cherished on her whole life. "You sound sad.", "A little."

She heard his breathe hitch over the line, adding. "You want to go out?", "Huh?" Joy asks, as he chuckled. "Let's go out, I'm free after this one show." Laughing, Joy mumbled. "Aniyo, you should take a rest. I'll go to the library to refresh my mind." She snickered, "Jinja? I hate libraries."

Laughing, Joy stood up from her bed. "Take a good rest, I'm going!", "Yah, Joyiah."

...

She silently walks towards the library.

She covered her face along in the mask, since she's been followed around often as well. Rolling her eyes, she didn't thought that she'll live a life like this. Sighing, she silently entered the library while looking around.

Sighing over the peaceful atmosphere inside, she stretched her arms around going over to the counter as she requested over the books.

She went over the shelves, enjoying the fresh smell of books while her phone was on silent. Flaunting her hands over the books before mumbling. "What should I get, though?" She stares over the books, muttering. "Should I read something else?" She muttered, hooking over the book as she saw some Mathematical exercises. "I don't even know why I'm resting myself over some torturous exercises." She pursed her lips together, before shaking her head as she smiles. "I'll miss this when we graduate so..." She suddenly felt the sadness inside her once again. Clicking her tongue, she looks around before muttering. "I want to read English, I might be the one starting another welcoming message for the graduation." She scrunched her nose up before going over to the English section.

Walking over near the window, she sat over the desk while lightly taking a sip of milk from the cafe she went into earlier. She was enjoying the silence while listening to some music over her plugged earphones. Smiling, her mind keeps on drifting back to the memories of her whole school life. She felt bittersweet, remembering how she used to complain about the project and sleepless nights, compiled research works along with nonsense activities... Even her professors that used to be a nightmare, she felt sad that she won't be seeing them again.

She sighs heavily, before reading over the book not until she heard a faint knock on the window.

Her eyes were so soft, as she looks over to the person who knocks over the glass window.

Her eyes suddenly widen. "Yah." She mouthed, only to see Sungjae smiling over her. She looks around. Luckily, there were not much people and fangirls around at this time. She turns back to him, who looks like an idiot that keeps on smiling and waving to her.

She couldn't help but snicker at how stupid he looks, mouthing. "You look stupid." He grins, before taking off his mask, gesturing her that he would enter the library.

She shakes her head, before focusing over her book.

She tried to surpress her smile, lifting it up to see him sitting across her with a stupid smile. "Hey." She smiles, as he muttered. "You're still studying hard?", "Of course." She grins, only to feel uncomfortable because of the gut feeling of some reporters sneaking outside the library to catch a glimpse of them.

Sighing, Joy went back to her book before she lifted her look to meet his eyes. "What?", "You're pretty when serious." She murmured. Grinning, Joy mumbled. "You know that I've been silent before you came, right?", "Hm." He nodded as she frowns. "I've been noticing you earlier.", "You're following me.", "Boyfriend duties." He snickered, before mumbling. "I'll get a book, I missed reading them." Nodding, Joy smiles. "Let's see how far you can read them all."
