huang renjun

"oppa!" areum approached him, skipping and jumping enthusiastically. she's from the faculty office talking with the dean kaya medyo natagalan siya.

"cute," renjun mumbled while looking at her. nang makarating siya sa harap niya, agad silang nag fist bump at nagpatuloy na sa paglalakad.

she casually wraps her hands around his arm as they walk. renjun didn't mind. nasanay na siya sa kanya. wala din namang meaning 'yun.

"wala nang bawian ha. sasama ka," renjun said. her grip on his arm tightened that made him chuckle.

"chill, hanreum. just act casual," renjun said.

she scratched her head and pouted.

"ehh, hindi ko alam kung pano. 'di naman ako katulad mo."

renjun stopped walking. he nodded and faced areum who is awkwardly smiling. she must have realized what she said.

"sorry--"

"no, it's okay. it takes time para maging pro," he kidded to lift up the mood. napatawa naman si areum at nagpatuloy sa paglalakad.

he doesn't know how he does that. acting like he has no feelings for her. one day he just realized that he has to act. maybe because he's living in a facade for a long time now. he's used to cover up in a mask.

               he heard areum let out a deep sigh as soon as they arrived at the bistro. he can see haechan, laughing.

good thing haechan is here with them. it's been months since they didn't meet him because of his survival show.

"si haechan 'yun?" areum asked and renjun nodded proudly.

"wow. nakita ko kasi siya sa tv. ang galing niya," she said with awe.

he sensed that she's feeling at ease now, dahil na-distract siya sa presence ni haechan. renjun looks at her and smiled.

"tara na?" he asked. areum took a deep breath once again before going inside.

renjun was immediately greeted by haechan's bear hug. he admits he misses him.

"kanina ko pa kayo napansin dun sa labas. ba't ang tagal niyo pumasok?" haechan asked. hindi na niya pinasagot si renjun dahil ibinaling niya ang atensyon kay areum.

"hi, i'm haechan!" haechan greeted enthusiastically. areum was shaking. kinakabahan siya.

he knows she's not used to a bigger clique. and na-star struck siya kay haechan.

renjun leans towards her and whispered.

"hanreum, relax."
