I rushed at the entrance in the subway trying to catch up the last train. Damn this group projects! They always assigned me in design which means I'm also responsible in buying materials that is waaaay too far from my dorm. That's why here I am, running like a madman in my pencil skirt uniform. A ding sound resonates the station indicating the near closing of train doors. No no no! I'm so close!In one last big skip, I was able to get inside the last train panting hard.
"No way." A voice occurring from behind me. "Mary?"
I turned around and saw a familiar face and uhh.. towering height. My face lit up in recognition, "Chanyeol!"
"Wow! Its really you!" He beamed. "Its been ages!"
I stared at his uniform, it was from a different university around the area I bought materials with. "Yeah! Long time no see. I didn't know you're studying in Hanyang."
"Chanyeol can you walk slower? I can't keep up with your super long legs." My smile faded as I heard the very familiar deep voice. That voice. It can't be.
"Ah Kyungsoo! Look who I ran with!" Chanyeol grabbed my shoulders making me faced him. Wait wait I look like a mess right now! I fixed my uniform in most discreet as possible and finally greeted him with a nervous smile.
"Oh hey Mary.."
"Long time no see"
"Yeah not since we graduated high school"
"Yeah.."
Well that was awkward. How we could not?
We're exes.
Chanyeol snickered, "Oh Kyungsoooo~ what happened to your good mood?" Curse youChanyeol! You know exactly whats going on. You never changed.
But sure Kyungsoo is. He was my boyfriend in 4th year high school. Although wedidn't last that long.
"Your hair. It's a lot shorter now." Kyungsoo noticed. Suddenly I felt extraconscious now. I have the urge to fix my hair but I might have looked tooobvious.
"You changed your hairstyle too" I replied in surprised tone. My reaction wasactually a lie; I already knew it before because I'm stalking his instagram.Yes, I'm still not over him.
'Arriving shortly in Hongdae Station'
"Oh thats mine. See you guys!" Chanyeol walked off the train and waved goodbyewith a smirk evident on his face. Leaving me and Kyungsoo.
No way.
It's just him and me now, sitting beside each other. Considering that there'salways a few people in the last trip. So its insanely quiet. What should I say?The weather is nice? NO its raining all day! I'm internally panicking.
It so awkward with him.
Figures.
We haven't spoken a word since that day.

It was spring when we are walking home from school. He was babbling about how he did bad in our mock exams when I noticed a couple student being sweet and close to each other.
How nice, I wish we were like that too.
He's still talking about the exam and was walking ahead of me. It's been months but we are nowhere act like a couple. I want us to be like that. I gripped my handbag tight and mustered up my courage. "K-kyungsoo!" He stopped and turned around.
