Chapter Twelve:

For the past month, I have been making and giving Minho his lunches, Bada has been asking me a lot of random question about Ji-seok - I don't understand why she needs to know so many things about him - and Kyung has been hanging around me a lot more than usual.

I take my seat for class, like I always do in the morning. Bada walks into the classroom and goes straight to her desk. She doesn't come over to me, like she does every morning. I take it upon myself to actually go over to her. I go to tap her shoulder, but the moment I move to tap it, she gets up and goes over someone else. What did I do?

I follow her and tap her shoulder. She whirls around and crosses her arms over her chest. "What do you want?" She snaps at me, which cause me to jump a little.

"Is everything alright?" I ask.

"It will be if you leave me alone," she says.

I stare down at the floor. "I'm sorry if I did something to upset you. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me."

She scoffs at my words. "Yeah, sure." Bada rolls her dark brown eyes at me.

"Have a good day." I bow before returning to my seat.

I stare at my things trying to figure out what I have done to make her angry at me. Is it because I don't talk to her enough. That must be it, I would be angry if my best friend didn't talk to me often. Should I start texting her more often? Or should I let her cool off?

"Jia." Someone shakes me out of my thoughts.

I glance up and see Minho standing next to me. "Hey Minho." I reach into my bag and grab his lunch. "Here you go."

"Thank you. Is everything okay?"

"Yeah everything is fine," I lie, as I begin to fiddle with my hair.

"Are you sure?"

I nod my head and he just looks at me. "I promise." I smile. I bet the smile looks weak and forced, like it is.

"I'm going to believe you, but if something is wrong, please tell me." I nod and he walks back to his seat. The teacher comes in and the class begins.

I catch up with Bada on her way to the cafeteria. "Are you upset with me because I haven't been talking to you a lot lately?" I ask her.

I watch as she rolls her eyes. Bada turns slightly to stare at me. "That's not it," she says through grit teeth.

"What is it?" I ask. "Maybe I can fix it."

She stops in the middle of the hallway, which makes me stop. "Jia, just leave me alone." She stomps away from me. I watch as she walk away from me, her body becoming smaller the farther she gets.

What did I do?

"Jia," a voice says. I jump a little and look to see who it is. "Are you sure everything is alright?" Minho asks, concern apparent in his dark eyes.

I take my bottom lip in between my teeth. "Yeah, everything is fine," I tell Minho. "Let's go to lunch." We walk into the lunchroom and to an empty table.

For the past few days, Bada hasn't answer any of the texts I've sent her or talked to me. I don't know what I did to make her angry, but all I want is for her to stop shutting me out.
