i felt like my heart stopped beating for a second as i stopped sobbing completely.

i felt really happy that she actually liked me back. but right now, i'm just feeling surprised. a little less sad than i was a minute ago.

i began to sit up, and i look at the alarm clock once again.

2:38pm. [name] came in around 11:30am.

as i sat up, [name] did the same thing. at first, she looked at me, smiling; but then she started to look away, covering her face.

"i didn't know you feel that way about me." i told her, trying to make a smile.

"well i..i do i mean—you remember that time when i first came over, yugyeom and bambam screamed?"

i surely do remember why. i still don't understand why they did scream, so i'm pretty confused. "yeah, why?"

"that was the thing. i told them..that i liked you?"

she really knows how to make me happy. i started to blush, cupping my cheeks. "oh my god" is what i told her in english.

"sooo.." she then started to spread her arms, as in asking for a hug. "are we official? i know we're going too fast and i—"

i interrupted her by hugging her back. and she immediately stopped talking. "yes; and it's fine. we're taking this very slowly as you said, so don't worry."

[name] then exhaled slowly, in a sigh of relief. "and now..we're going to do something, which is the reason why i came here: to help you study for your exam."

"..can't that wait?"

"you napped for 3 hours! no!"

"[name], please."

"no, take out your notes and study." she scolded at me. i began to make some funny excuses, but sadly it didn't work on her. i began taking out my notes, and hand them to her.

"wait, these are notes for film and theater."

"what did you think it was, modeling?"

"yeah?"

"i already took that not too long ago, it was pretty easy."

"you probably just pose and stuff, what else?"

"well..you're not wrong."
