"The trip is in, like, a week right?"

"Yes! I can't wait!" one of her friends answered.

She was excited for the trip. But what is fun without Soobin actually having fun with her? He was being very grumpy and looked like he's always tired. Everytime she attempted a conversation or asked any question, he would only nod or shake his head or answer them curtly.

She turned to Soobin and grinned, "Aren't you excited?"

"What?"

"The trip, aren't you excited to go on the trip?" she huffed.

"Not really."

She stared at him disbelief while he was looking at somewhere else. An idea suddenly popped into her head as she started to brim with excitement.

"Ouch! It's bleeding!" she exclaimed, grasping her index finger with the other hand, pretending that it was bleeding.

Soobin immediately turned to her, not saying anything but looked panicked out of his mind.

Her pained expression slowly turned into a sheepish grin as she revealed that there was no bleeding at all.

He gave her a look that she couldn't even decipher, causing her grinning died down into a frown.

Soobin stood up from his seat and walked out of the class.

She didn't follow him not like he thought she would. She looked down at her lap wondering what she did wrong. She couldn't bring herself to rush after him.

It was finally time for PE. She was planning to ask what was wrong but sadly Soobin didn't participate this time because he had something to do with the student council.

PE was her least favorite subject at school so she couldn't wait for it to end and go home.

The girls played volley this time, she got into the same team as Ryujin, although she didn't want to join at all. It was fun. She guessed.

Her team's opponent was pratically filled with prodigies, their body was toned because they exercise, and their movements when they did sport were smooth and not awkward at all like hers.

Although she didn't like PE class nor sports, she didn't like to lose. So she tried hard for her team to win.

Her team didn't win but almost. She didn't win, but she atleast made her team didn't look that suck with the help of Ryujin. The other members were just awkwardly trying to help them.

And.. maybe she tried a bit too hard

Resulting in her spraining her ankle at the end of the game.

Ryujin gasped when she fell down onto the floor.

"Y/N! Are you okay? You're still clusmy as ever!" Ryujin ran over to her and helped her stand up.

"I'm okay, chill," she tried to walk without Ryujin's help but she immediately stumbled forward.

"Just let me help you walk, geez," Ryujin sneered.

They walked to the polyclinic and let her sat down on one of the beds.

"Wait here, I'm going to get you a drink, alright?"

"You don't have to-" but Ryujin already walked away.

The meeting was great and Soobin walked out of the room smiling, not even remembering how bad he felt for ignoring her this morning.
