"urghh! i don't wanna do this anymore!" 

Jihye whines, dropping her head into her open english textbook.

"aww, cheer up! it's not that bad!" 

Hobi chuckles, leaning back into the stiff, wooden library chair 

and popping a jelly bean into his mouth.

her face still pressed into the book, 

Jihye hears Nari faintly huff out what sounds like 

'can we go now?' in a dull tone.

"look, let's make a deal," 

Hobi turns around 

and levels his face next to hers on the table.

"if you help me on his project and work, i'll take give you..."

he turns around 

fumbling in his backpack, looking for something.

"...some pocky if you help me with this section," 

he begs with wide puppy eyes.

for some reason, at that very moment, 

something clicked in Jihye's heart. 

it feels just like how people described in books and movies, 

how your heart skips a beat 

and melts into a blushy mess.

maybe we'll be those cute couples and do the pocky challenge.

Jihye fantasizes as she grins into the pages of her textbook, 

her smile stretching widely across her face 

to the point where it hurts.

"alright then, deal," 

she lifts her head up, 

brushing her bangs out of her eyes to look at Hobi.

"great! so what did you get for number 37?" 

he asks, scooting closer to the flustered girl.

"okay... but pocky first," 

Jihye shyly says, 

slowly extending her open palm towards the smirking boy.

"sure," his smooth voice slowly answers back, 

before turning around to grab the red box and handing it to her.

Jihye grins brightly 

and carefully opens the top of the box 

and takes a stick out, 

gingerly nibbling the tip.

"alright now that i've given you the pocky, help me with this problem," 

he energetically pleads, 

"please?" 

his voice rises a bit, 

catching the now pale red girl off guard.

"o-okay then," 

Jihye flusteredly utters, 

picking up her pencil and explaining the problem, 

doing everything in her power to not glance up at the boy and stare at him.

"can you help me too?" 

Jimin swiftly scoots in next to Hobi, 

and Nari hastily picks up her belongings
