Weeks passed and Mingyu continuously received origamis everyday. He saw another one on his desk again, a bably blue Japanese paper folded to make figures. He sighed and tossed the origami inside his bag. Simula noong malaman niya na si Junhui ang nagbibigay ng origami sa kanya ay nawala na ang excitement niya na makakuha nito kada pagpasok niya. Napabuntong hininga siya at hinintay na lamang na dumating ang guro nila.

A few minutes passed at dumating si Jeonghan. Late na naman pumasok. He was breathing really hard and his face is wet with his sweat. Napailing si Mingyu.

"Buti wala pa si Ma'am, nakaabot ka—"

"Anyare sa kabilang section?" Biglang tanong ni Jeonghan. Napakunot ang noo ni Mingyu.

"Huh?"

Jeonghan pulled his armchair closer to Mingyu.

"Nagiiyakan sila sa kabila e, andun din si Ma'am."

Nagkibit balikat lang si Mingyu. He remembered, yun ang klase nila Junhui at Wonwoo. Muling nabuhay ang kuryosidad ni Mingyu.

Nagkibit balikat na lang din si Jeonghan at nagpunas ng pawis.

Ilang sandali pa, dumating ang guro nila na namamaga ang mata at mukhang kagagaling lang sa pagiyak. Mingyu's curiosity grew bigger.

"Ma'am anyare po?" Tanong ni Jeonghan.

"One of my students, d-died." Tanging sagot ng guro nila at hindi na sila hinayaang mag tanong pa dahil nagsimula na itong magdiscuss.

[The Next Day]

The student who died became the topic of every conversations inside their school. No one really knows who the exact student is except for those who are in the same class with him. Mingyu and Jeonghan decided not to meddle with other's business. They shrugged the news off.

Mingyu, as usual, went to school early. Hinintay niya muna sa library si Jeonghan dahil may usapan sila na sabay silang papasok. He felt the need to pee kaya lumabas muna siya at pumasok sa men's restroom. There he bumped with Junhui.

Hindi alam ni Mingyu ang gagawin. He knew that Junhui is the one behind those origami, but he isn't contented with that. Feeling niya talaga ay may mali. First, because Junhui is not that kind of person who would waste his time making an origami. If Junhui likes someone, he would definitely confess to him/her head-on and be straight to the point. And second, when they saw Junhui making an origami inside the cafeteria, he looked like he was just learning. And the figures he's making is different from what Mingyu receives. Mingyu just doesn't know what to think anymore.

"S-sorry." Tanging nasabi ni Mingyu kay Junhui.

Nagulat siya ng kwelyuhan siya nito at isinandal sa pader. Junhui eyed him with so much anger.

"Tarantado ka! Kasalanan mo to! May gana ka pang maglakad-lakad dito na parang walang inaalala?! Kim Mingyu, I would never forgive you for hurting him in his last few days." Junhui angrily muttered with his gritted teeth and punched the wall only an inch apart from Mingyu's face. Galit na binitawan siya ni Junhui at naglakad paalis. Mingyu was left with rounded eyes. Mingyu was left with many questions. Mingyu was left hurting.
