Cho Haneul's Point of View
"Hey, Haneul!" I stopped writing the lesson on my notebook and removed my earphones. I looked up and saw my boyfriend smiling sweetly at me. "Hey."
I closed my notebook and looked at his face. He's so handsome that I just couldn't take my eyes off of him. He have such a pretty face that he makes all of the girls look back at him.
"Let's have a date later." He looked excited with his eyes gleeming, but I wasn't sure if we'll go or not. It's been a while since we've gone on a date but I can't just go on and enjoy my life with a situation like this. "What do you say?"
"Jeonghan..." I softly said, not wanting to make him angry or feeling that he is not a priority for me. It's just that it's too early for my life to be hard. "Can we go some other time?"
With that, his beautiful smile turned upside down. It's so disappointing that I just turned him down, again. He pushed back his dark hair and bit his lips in annoyance. He looked at the ground before looking back to my eyes.
"It's the same reason again, am I right?" I looked at him with my eyes, letting him know that I am also sad that I couldn't go with him, after a few months of dating each other. "Is it?"
I nodded my head slowly, feeling really guilty that we haven't got to spend time with ourselves. I also thought that we should give each other a break, because this is not good for each one of us. But I would miss him so much if we would separate each other, so I didn't.
"I'm really sorry." I stood up, brought his left hand into my hands and caressed it. "If I get a day-off, I'll contact you right away and let's have a date."
"Okay? I promise you." I brought up my little finger, my other hand still holding his left hand. He sighed before putting up his little finger, and having a pinky swear with me.
I smiled at him but he doesn't seem to be happy at all. We're dating but I don't have time to show how much I love him. "Alright... I love you."
"I love you too." I kissed him on his cheek and we shared a smile. I held his hand tightly and looked up at him. "Have you eaten yet?"
He shook his head with a smile on his face. "No. I thought I would only watch you writing down those lessons."
I chuckled and walked out of the classroom. I told him that we were going to the cafeteria but he didn't want to and just have a walk around the school. I figured out that he didn't have any breakfast before he went here because he was so I scolded him a little which lead us to going to the cafeteria together.
We ordered our food and went to our usual spot. I gave him half of my pork ribs and refused on the idea of him returning the food since I was on a diet. He respected my desicion and sneakily held my hand under the table.
I was giddy and slightly kicked his foot eith mine. He just continued eating with his non-dominant hand with a smile on our faces.
He make my heart flutter everday and I just couldn't take it anymore. My love for him just keep on getting bigger as time goes by.

I turned the sign sticking on the glass door as soon as the time turned eight in the evening. There are a few patients left in the clinic since everyone has been getting a haircut since it's a very hot season because summer is right around the corner.
"Haneul-a. Please handle patient number twenty-seven for me, dear." My aunt said as she's busily recording the history of the patient's person infront of her. So I went to the waiting area and found the patient. It's a white maltese and it looked so cute and young.
"Mister? Let's head to the grooming area."
"No!" I widened my eyes after he shouted at me. I didn't know why he suddenly shouted. Did I scare him? Do I have something on my face? I just looked at the mirror before going here. "I-I mean, I changed my mind!"
"What do you mean, sir?" I furrowed my eyebrows at him and stood back, incase it was me why he's being like this. "Don't you want your dog to be groomed?"
"What's happening here, Haneul?" She looked at me before looking at the person who just yelled a few minutes ago. "What's the matter, sir?"
He took a deep breath and calmed down for a bit before looking into my eyes. "I don't want my dog to get a haircut anymore."
"Is that so?" Aunt looked at me and to the guy. She sighed but smiled at him. "I respect your decision but if you suddenly change your mind, our clinic is open daily."
"Thank you." The guy stood up and bowed down, carrying his dog with both if his hands. We bowed back and watched the guy out if the clinic before getting back to work.
"We lost a customer." My aunt said as she arranged her things in her bag and I just nodded. "I hope this is the only time that it's going to happen."
I just stood quietly beside her, my eyes lowered onto the ground. "Clean all of the things here."
"And close the clinic after for me too, alright? I'm heading got to go for my blind date." She applied bright pink lipstick and puckered after. I nodded as she looked at me before she took his bag and went out.
The day went quite well, no pets making a mess or being all so hyper. But that person was just strange. I wonder if there's a reason why he's like that or just because he has a psychological illness.
I closed the clinic and walked on my way home. My phone flashed as I received a message from someone. I opened it and saw my aunt's message.
