"My house is this way, Chaeyoung-ssi."

Sana tells me while raising her hand pointing a certain house. It looks homey and quiet. It's a perfect house. Well, home.

"Do you live alone? I mean, only with Mina?"

"Uh, yes. My parents bought us this so we won't rent a unit. Units near school are so expensive, so they bought us this, instead." Sana explains while smiling.

"But, it seems more expensive than renting, though.." I mumble my sentence.

"Sorry?"

"No, it's okay. Well then, I'll go first. Rest well, Sana-ssi."

I turn my back and start to walk but Sana calls me again. I look back at her and she runs to me.

"Can I ask for your nu-number? Uh, for talking about the date?"

"Ah! Ofcourse! Here, give me your phone."

She gives me her phone. I click my number on it and give it back to her. She lows her head while taking her phone back. She twists her feet again. I wonder why she likes to twist her feet so much. Even before we speak earlier, she twisted her feet so much while looking down. I'm about to brinf my hand to touch her shoulder until she looks up at me so suddenly.

I look at her questioningly. I was about to open my mouth when she walks closer to me while closing her eyes and kiss me on cheek!

She freakin' kissed me!

On cheek though.

But it's a kiss!

I widen my eyes while my mouth is open slightly. She's so bold. She runs back to her house and slam her gate.

Me, as the person who just receive her kiss, stunned ofcourse. I bring my hand to my cheek that she just kissed earlier.

...

No one POV

"I'm home! Mina, where are you?" Sana throws her bag to the couch in the living room while skipping to the kitchen to get some water.

"I'm in my room!" Mina shouts from her bedroom. Sana who heard this, quickly put down her glass and dash toward the second floor to find her sweetest bestfriend.

Without even knocking, she burst into Mina's room while screaming, "Mina-chaaaaann!!"

Mina jolted her body because of Sana. Sana surprised her so much. She is reading a book right now, all the emotion she has feels now gone because of this squirrel.

"Don't you know how to knock?" She huffed and throw her book to her side and crossed her arms.

"Oops, sorry. Anyway, I have something to tell you!" Mina can see that her bestfriend is really happy right mow, so she decided to hear what the girl going to say. She taps her side to signaling the happy girl to sit beside her.

"So, what is it?"

They started to lay down while being covered by a warm blanket. Girls talk, start.

"You know that I like Chaeyoung, right?"

Oh God, please no. Mina thought to herself but keep her poker face.

"Yeah, what about her?"

"I ask her out today!"

No please, say that she rejected you.

"Omo! And then???"

Please say she rejected you.

"Well, she's about to reject me at first, but.."

But what? But what!?

"I keep asking her to date with me first. Just once. And gave us a chance." Sana said while smiling.

Chaeyoung must be said no, right.

"Oh really? Woaah, you're so bold. And then, what she said to you?"

Please, reject it Chaeyoung-a.

"She said yes!" Sana squealed while hiding her face with the blanket and squish it.

While Mina just flashes her fake smile while congratulating her bestfriend. That's the best fake smile that she ever made.

Why. Does that mean your attempted to kiss me the other day is just playing around? How you want to protect me. That's all lie, I guess.

Sana hugs Mina tightly from the side while saying that she still can't believe that she will date Chaeyoung.

"Oh, and you know, Mina."

Mina turns her head to Sana. Afraid that there's something more than that. But judging from the squirrel girl, there must be something more than that.

"She walks me home and.."

Please stop it.

"I kissed her, Mina-chaan!"

Mina losts her words. She can't believe what she heard from her bestfriend.

"You k-k-kis-kissed her?"

Sana nods her head excitedly.

"Only on her cheek though" Then she starts to pout.

"Did Chaeyoung said anything?"

"No. Cause I run away immediately. Hahaha!"

Sana is joking around while Mina still won't believe what's happening now. Did she feels jealous? Why she has to feel that way? Chaeyoung is not hers. So, she can be with anybody. But, there's this feels where it stab Mina's chest repeatedly, that she hardly breath and it's suffocating her. Her throat feels dry and stuffy. She's about to cry. But, she knows she can't. Especially in front of her bestfriend. So, she just excused herself to the convenient store to buy something when actually she just want to be alone and release all this painful feeling in her chest. Sana, being left by her bestfriend while she's still telling her best story of her life, she pouts.

"Mina, you're so mean!"

Mina quickly grabs her jacket and her purse and went out from the house quickly.

She goes to the nearest park near their house and go to the swing. She sit there while staring at the ground. She slowly kicks her feet to the ground so that she swing will swing her slowly.

The wind is so calm, the temperature this night is also friendly. The sound of the swing swinging also can calms people's heart. But, not with her. As she swings her body on this swing, she feels the urge for crying become bigger. She kicks the land harder and scream.

"AAAAAAHHH!!!!"

She keeps screaming and swing her body faster until her swing swings really high. Even the height can't scare her now. The painful feeling that she feels inside her chest is more than her fear to height. She keeps screaming 'til her voice got hoarse.

She can see water flying from her face. It must be her tears. She keeps kicking the ground and swing higher and scream louder.

Slowly, she let go off the the swing and let it swing by it self. It's getting more slowly than before. Slower and slower until it stops. Mina stomp her feet to the ground and low her head while her hands are holding her hairs.

"Who are you to make me feel this way, Son Chaeyoung."
