(18) we'll build a fort

hyewon fills her water bottle after a whole period of p.e. she wipes her sweat away from her forehead and leans against a wall.

"hyewon, she's stupid and innocent. but yeah, she's my friend."

she hears a very familiar voice speaking of her somewhere. hyewon decides to eavesdrop since it was about her.

"but that's not really a nice thing to say about your friend, lucas."

of course, it was that dickhead who always picks on her. who else could it be?

"pfft, she wouldn't care. she's gonna flick her oh so pretty eyelashes and say 'oh, it's okay lucas. i'm sure you're just joking'." the tall male did a girly voice while imitating how hyewon would react in this situation. he bursts into laughter after that. but his friend didn't. of course he wouldn't. it was jungwoo.

"no, lucas. you shouldn't take her for granted. she's sweet and nice."

"barf. she's nice cause she's stupid. she never realize that no one really likes her."

she couldn't stand it anymore. he shouldn't say those things about her. if he really wanted to, he should've did it to her face. not with someone else.

"lucas?" hyewon calls his name. "oh.. hyewon." jungwoo flinched but lucas just stays still.

"what?" lucas rolls his eyes seeing her. "say that again."

"why? you should know that already. you're stupid and do everything as i say. like an unpaid butler."

hyewon grabs her shirt, trying her best not to throw hands or cry infront of lucas. "lucas. why do you... why are you even friend with me? do you think me as a friend of yours?"

"of course i do." hyewon thought she could forgive him as he says those words but then he continues.

"being friends with you makes me look better."

"b-better? better how?"

"well you're clumsy, awkward, stupid and unknown. while i'm handsome, popular, socialable and everyone loves me. i like it when people are all 'why is he even friends with her?' i like it. cause i look better."

hyewon's eyes were teary. she's just thankful that the liquid didn't drop. "you fucker.." she says underneath he breath. she tried her best not to throw hands but it ended up slapping lucas right at his cheek.

"i'm not your friend anymore. who's gonna make you look better now, huh?" before she left, he kicks lucas on his balls.

hyewon bites her nails as he stares at her phone. "should i text him? should i? should i..."

"ah, forget it. yolo, you know."
