Thanks @ForeverYourPeterPan for adding this story to your reading list.

Kris's POV

I don't know anymore! I'm getting insane!

Why is she like that? She deosn't like me? She hates me so much?

Then what am I supposed to do?

Jinjja! Haist!

Making a miracle happen as what my sister told me is just so difficult.

"Yah! Jackson. Can you tell me

how--" But I cannot bring myself to complete my question.

"What hyung?" he asked while his eyes are on his tablet. "Yeah! That's it! I'm winning! HAHA!"

This guy won't be a help. According to his friends who I met in Hongkong last time, he was always dumped because he is too noisy, too active, and too crazy to handle. Girls couldn't understand him, they said.

Then who will I ask about this?

Lay?

Nah! He is always a loner. He only cares about sleeping.

Luhan?

Haha. He's too pretty to even move a finger to seduce a girl. He doesn't need that so he doesn't know how.

Sehun?

But that kid is evil! He's cruel! He would make fun of me at how I, the hyung, asked him, the maknae, about girls.

Yongguk? Hoya?

The former is always in his studio with his music, and the later is always in his rehearsal room dancing.

Who else is there to ask?

I opened my phone and scanned my phonebook.

Huang Zi Tao

I took me seconds to think, and I ended up pushing the call button.

And on the second ring, he answered. "Yeoboseyo? Hyung? Waeyo?"

Chorong's POV

Call me crazy --- No, it should be more than that. Idiot. That's the word.

After the day I started to avoid him, and the day I told him to stop..

..there wasn't a day I wanted to see him.

What my mind is saying is different from my heart, and I'll be lying to myself if I say I didn't regret what I did.

Yes, I regret pushing him away. However, I still think I did the right thing.

The exams have ended and I am back in the convenience store.

Tiffany eonnie is wearing her happy smile as usual. "Chorong-ah! You're back! We missed you here in the store!"

Kris must have told her he missed me! "We?"

"Yep. The customers had been asking if you already quit." she answered while cleaning some stuff on the floor.

Oh! Yeah. Why would he miss me when I pushed him away? I don't have the slightest right to think of that. "Oh yeah  I'm sorry for being absent, eonnie." I went to get the vacuum cleaner from her. "I'll do this."

She gave it to me. "Thank you." She went back to the counter. "I'll be with you today. Too good I don't have a class coz they'll be here later."

"They?"

"The ice cream company will give us new stocks today."

Boo Chorong! Who are you expecting to come? Think he'll like to see you?

But this heart is longing for him. Jinjja michyeoseo!

I think he's even avoiding me in school that I don't even see his shadow there. I thought he doesn't come to school, or he is away in Hongkong or in the States or anywhere, but hearing Chanyeol and Chen still include him in their daily stories means he is still in school.

He might not just wanna see me anymore.

How could he give up so fast?

But that's what you wanted, jerk!

Yes, your right little voice. I'm a jerk. A huge jerk.

"You're looking for Kris, right?"

I was dumbstruck by eonnie's sudden question. It's a question that I definitely know the answer, but it's not correct.

"A-ani-yo, eonnie." Gawd! I even have to stutter!

She laughed softly. "I just don't know what's going on between the two of you, but then, I thinj you two really need some help."
