"So. Jeno, what should we do for the project?" Jaemin asks

"Let's talk about it Monday."

"We should get a headstart on it" he whines.

"Fine, just text me. I'm going home." I say handing him a paper with my name on it.

"Wait for me!" He chases after me.

I forgot we live in the same direction.

"Can I come over this weekend to work on it?"

"No!"

"My place then?"

"No. We're not going to anyone's house. Let's just work in class and that's it."

"But that's not enough time to get it done. You want a good grade don't you?"

"Fine. Your house. You're so lucky  care about my grades"

"So do you not care about me?" Jaemin pouts.

"No!" I walk off to my front door.

"Didn't I tell you not to hang out with him?" My mom questioned as soon as I shut the door.

"I'm sorry Mommy it's not like I want to. He lives down the street and he won't leave me alone. And what's worse is Mrs. Bae paired us up for a new project."

"Why don't you listen to me?!"

"I'm sorry Mommy. It's his fault."

"Don't blame him for something you Couldn't do" she got closer until I backed in the door.

That night I went to bed without food. With a bruised bottom and tears as my dinner before I fell asleep.

"Jeno, my darling. I'm sorry I hit you. You can hang out with him if you want to but on one condition."

"What is it?"

"I need you to......."

MOMS POV.

Why deprive my son of a friend when I can gain so much information from it.
