You hated how he treats you, but you know you love him so much. He bullies you and you don't know why. Is something wrong with me? What did I do wrong to him? You kept asking yourself for years. He's a bad boy and you love him. You should not expect him to love you back. He bullies you everyday and everywhere, talking bad about you to everyone. It just kept happening again and again.

You were sitting in your seat, waiting for classes to end since it was a free period, when he arrived. Y/N, get ready for what's coming. "Hello, everyone." Xu Minghao greeted, glancing at you with a smirk. "You want to know something new about Y/N?" He sat on your table, causing you to move back. Everyone was now looking at Minghao.

"She's going to transfer next year, aren't we going to miss her?" He said with full sarcasm. As he said that, you were shocked. You kept quiet as he kept glancing towards you. Your classmates were also shocked, but some didn't care. No one knew about your plans, so you wondered if he knew or it was just a coincidence. "Y/N always gets lower scores than me, isn't that why she'll transfer?"

You couldn't dare to listen anymore. I hope the bell rings. It did. You quickly ran home and forget about what happened. No one should know, he should not know anything. The next day came by fast and surprisingly, it was the last day of school. Everyone was getting hyped and crazy, while you just waited for the party to end.

You kept yourself busy, avoiding someone's presence. Xu Minghao. "Hey, I see you're lonely. Haha, as expected." You know that voice and you hate it. "What do you want?" You coldly asked. "Nothing much, I thought you wouldn't come here. You don't really have to be here, you can just go home now." He shrugged. It hurt you because you wanted your last day in school to be with him.

Just seeing him made you happy, but he wanted you to go home. "Sorry, The8. From now on, I'll j-just leave since you don't need me." You quietly sobbed as he looked at you. Minghao didn't show any reaction and waited for you to leave. After one last glance at him, you went home. You were a crying mess because you knew, you wouldn't see him again.

"Goodbye, China. Goodbye, The8. I hope you'll be happy without me." You sobbed, trying to smile. After packing all your things, you were ready for tomorrow's flight. All you needed now was a good sleep and you would be okay. The next day, you were ready to leave. You checked everything and made sure you did not leave anything behind, not even the memories.

Few hours later, you were already in the plane. As you pulled out your phone from your bag, you saw a picture. It was Minghao and it made you sad, so you placed it back inside and tried to forget about it. Finally, you all arrived at Seoul, South Korea. What a wonderful place to start a new life. Your parents bought a decent house for you and they enrolled you in a new school. Everything is new to me.

On the other hand, Minghao wondered why you weren't around the neighborhood anymore. He asked his other neighbor where you were, but he was told that your family moved away. That moment, he realized that he felt something for you. He didn't bully you because he loved you, he needed your presence because he, himself, is lonely. Now that you're gone, he's devastated.

-

8 years later, you felt great. You made new friends, new memories, new opportunities, but still the same love. Your life changed ever since you lived here and you didn't want it to change again. You weren't bullied anymore here and you were treated like a friend. "I'll go home first and we'll just see each other at the cafe." Your best friend said, leaving you alone.

I have to wait, so I might just walk around for a while. You walked towards the cafe where you both planned to meet up. You entered and looked for a place to stay. She's not here yet. You decided to order an iced coffee for the mean time. As you waited for your order, a guy tapped your shoulder. "Excuse me, do you mind moving a bit? My drink is kind of hot and you might get burned."

Geez, he's cold but not his drink. "Oh, sorry." You moved back, but someone accidentally pushed him causing his drink to spill a bit on you. "Ouch, it's too hot. Who orders a hot drink during the day?" You rubbed your arm to ease the pain as you glared at the man. He quickly apologized, "Sorry, miss. Someone pushed me, it's not my fault and I don't do cold drinks."

"Don't do cold drinks." Reminds of -. When you looked up to the man, you became even more annoyed. "Out of all people, you?! My day couldn't get any worse." You quickly grabbed your drink and sat down on your seat where you saw your best friend. "Who was that?" She asked curiously. "No one, he's not important. I don't know him, okay?" "Why so cold, Y/N? I just asked, unless he meant something to you."

"No." You took a sip of your drink. Your best friend stood up and went to order. Now that you're alone, you saw him again outside the cafe. He was calling someone on the phone and right on time, she came back. "I just ordered my drink, let's go to my house. You promised to have sleepover with me." She whined, making you laugh at her. "Okay, let's go."

As both of you exited the cafe, he saw you walking away. "Hey, lady." He walked passed you and stood in front of you. "Let me repay yo-" He paused. "Is that you, Y/N?" You didn't reply and looked away. Your best friend stared at both of you weirdly, moving away from the two of you. "I don't know you." You finally replied. "It's me, Minghao. You used to always call me The8, I know."

"Sorry, I don't know you." You said again. "I'll wait for you at home, best friend." She awkwardly smiled at you, worried about your situation. She didn't call you by your name because she didn't want Minghao to know. "I'm sorry, Y/N. I know you hate me, but I really regretted it. I felt so lonely without your presence. I didn't know you're also here, so I think that it's destiny." "You sound so disgusting and cliche right now. The8, I forgave you even a long time ago ..."

"...I never hated you, not even once. Well, except for when you spilled hot coffee on me. You don't have to say everything you want to say to me. Just answer, what do you want from me?" You asked him seriously. You weren't in the mood for confessions, you wanted to get straight to the point. "I know you wouldn't believe if I said that I waited for you because I like you, so let's just be friends for now."

"The8, you got yourself a new friend for now." You both shook hands, but he pulled you in for a hug. "I missed you." He whispered and I hit him playfully. Meeting each other again was either a coincidence or destiny, but it doesn't matter. You both met again and you finally became friends with him. He was in Korea for work which means more time for you to see him again. Being friends was just the start of it.
