Friday. 11 oct.
Junhoe was kind enough to give me a ride to school. Hyora caught a terrible cold and went to the clinic with my mom this morning.
I just finished breakfast and was about to do the dishes when I heard a car honking in my driveway and took a look outside as he barged into my home and shamelessly asked me to make him a little something because he didn't get to eat breakfast at his house.
'A knock on the door would be nice.' I followed him to the kitchen after I closed the door.
'You know, something to eat right now would be great.' He gives his stomach a little pat.
I sat down across the table sitting facing him and pulled out my phone to show him the activities we could join for our final year.
'Junhoe, look!' I showed him the list but he didn't seem so excited about it.
'What's that?'
'It's a list of activities we could join for our final year!' I squealed.
'I am never going to join these kind of activities ever again.' He crossed his arms over his chest.
'Why not? It's fun! We could join the media & photography club this November until next January!' I shoved my phone to his face.
'Photography?' His face brightens.
'I knew you'd be interested and it's free.' I smiled at him teasingly.
'It's the only activity that's not boring and we get to go to places for free' He downs his glass of milk.
'So, is that a yes?.' I look at him pleadingly.
'Sure.' He scoffs and crosses his arms over his chest.
We managed to reach school on time. There was an accident on our way to school. We were only 10 minutes late.
'Hurry! We're late!'
I pulled Junhoe to run but he walked like we were 10 minutes early.
'I bet the teacher is not even in class yet.' He fastens his pace to match mine.
'Are you serious right now?!' I yelled and pulled him harder.
'Relax.' He smiled.
I was so pissed that I let his hand go and ran hurriedly to class, leaving him behind.
'Hey, wait.' He yelled.
I barged into the classroom and my classmates look at me all weird like and I searched the room looking for the teacher and stood at the door until I felt like someone is behind me.
'Excuse me.'
I turned to see who it was but I bumped into him and he held me before I lost balance.
'Hey there stranger.' He smiled.
'Yunhyeong? You're here.' I looked at him, shocked.
'You're here too, waiting for me?' He chuckled.
'Oh! Actually..' I stepped aside when I saw Junhoe standing behind him.
'Hey.' Junhoe smiled and pats yunhyeong's back.
'Junhoe, hey.' He rests his arms around Junhoe's shoulder.
'Ahem.' Our maths teacher interrupted us.
We walked into the classroom and hurriedly went to our seats.
'Good morning class.' Our maths teacher greeted the class.
We sat down and Yunhyeong looks at me nervously and stands awkwardly next to the teacher.
'New student?' He looks at yunhyeong carefully.
'Yes, sir. I used to study here 2 years ago.' He looks across the class and smiled genuinely.
'I've never seen you here before. Anyway, You'll be sitting there.' He points to an empty seat next to Jaewon which is in front of Junhoe.
He thanked the teacher and walked to the empty seat next to Jaewon.
'Hi I'm yunhyeong.' He takes out his hand to shake Jaewon's.
'Jung Jaewon.' He shakes yunhyeong's hand.
Recess
As soon as the teacher left the classroom, Jennie and hanbin waited outside for us to walk to the cafeteria together.
'Yunhyeo-' Hanbin walked up to greet him but got cut off by Jennie.
'YUNHYEONG!' She ran towards him and gave him a hug.
'Jennie!' He hugged her and gave her a pat on the back.
'We missed you.'
' I missed you guys too.' He said with a little chuckle.
'Anyway, we have to wait for cha-'
'GUYS!' Chanwoo ran towards us, a sandwich in hand.
'Oh hey, chanwoo. Where were you?' I looked at his messily wrapped sandwich.
Yunhyeong stares at Chanwoo and I look at chanwoo and to yunhyeong again. Why do they look so.. Alike? I just realized that they look kind of the same. It's just that chanwoo's cheeks are a little chubby and he's a little taller. Weirdly I find it a little disturbing because I have feelings for yunhyeong but not chanwoo. They look at each other again.
'Uh..'
'Wow' I heard Junhoe say.
'Chanwoo, this is yunhyeong.. Yunhyeong, this is chanwoo.' I smiled.
It's weird that we just knew that they look the same. It's funny but kinda creepy at the same time.
Recess
We sat at a table where we usually have lunch. They were all happy seeing each other again. Chanwoo didn't talk at all during lunch.
While walking back to class, we still have more time before class starts. I looked at chanwoo who seems to be bothered by something and refuse to tell anyone about it. I walked up to him and asked him what's wrong.
'Hey, are you okay? Looks like to me that something is bothering you.' I gave his shoulder a little squeeze.
'Thanks for asking but I don't think you'd understand.' He shrugged.
'Just tell me. Maybe if you tell me you'll feel better.'
'It's silly, really.' He laughed it off.
'I'm sure I can handle it.' I let out a giggle.
He takes a deep breath before telling me. He sighed.
'Remember the girl I showed you the other day?' He scratched the back of his neck.
'Yesterday. What about her?'
'Well..' He chuckled nervously.
'Spit it out already.' I said and glanced at my watch to see what time it is.
'I like her. Like, really like her. I tried to talk to her but everytime I walk past her I just look at her and get tongue tied everytime I'm around her. It's so frustrating that I cant even smile at her. How am I going to tell her how I feel? I don't even know her name.' He sighed with a hint of frustration on his face.
'Wow.' I said in awe.
I didn't know chanwoo was like this. I felt kinda sorry for him. Then i decided to help him.
'You know, chanwoo.. I can help you with that.' I smiled and pat his back.
'How?' His head lowers.
'You know I'm the best stalker there is.' I pointed at myself waiting for him to smile.
'You're weird. I'm glad to have a friend like you.' He smiled.
I smiled in return.
