"chaesol, can i ask you something?"
"yeah?"
"i wanted to ask this a long time back. did you dislike me in 11th grade?"
"huh? no, why would i hate you?"
"heejin told me last year that you needed help with math and that you're going to ask me to tutor you soon, but you never did. and you hardly talked to me, so i thought maybe i did something wrong?"
"oh it's nothing like that. i was gonna ask you to help me with math but before i could, my neighbour sunwoo insisted that i learn math from him, and i hardly talk to anyone in school, so you weren't an exception."
hyunjin nodded as he got an answer to his query.
"that's a relief."
the next time when the six of them were gathered outside 12-C during the break time, hyunjin gently held chaesol's arm and took her away from the rest whispering, "i have to tell you something."
again? chaesol thought.
yujin looked at heejin and raised her eyebrows with a confused expression while the other girl just shrugged, equally confused. jisung glared at them.
the two of them stood at a distance where the others couldn't hear what they were saying.
"hey, i actually forgot to keep my history textbook today. do you mind sharing yours during history period?"
chaesol chuckled, "okay, no worries."
she wondered why he had to whisk her away from everyone just to ask that.
when the two of them joined the others, yujin and heejin were grinning at chaesol, wiggling their eyebrows.
the smaller girl squinted, "what is it?"
"nothing, bub. nothing at all."
