"Eunbin.."

"I never really liked you from the start. You were just a pawn. Do you not understand what I'm saying?"

Eunbin crossed her arms as she chewed on her gum loudly as she was tired of trying to explain that she wasn't interested in Sanha. Sanha didn't know how to respond as he was at a loss of words as he felt his whole world crumbling slowly. He shook his head quickly as if he was trying to erase whatever was taking place in front of him. He watched in horror as he saw Jaemin approaching the pair as they were standing outside the bus stop near Sanha's home late in the afternoon.

It was on a Saturday weekend where he specifically asked Woojin if he could have the weekend off so that he could ask Eunbin for a date out since they rarely did. She had no problem holding hands with him and sharing an ice cream. But all of a sudden, he wasn't currently ready to see what was about to unfold in front of him as Eunbin's face lit up brightly than the stars during Christmas night.

He never saw her smile that brightly and beautifully before until Jaemin hugged her from behind to kiss her on the cheek. Something that Sanha wasn't able to achieve while he was with Eunbin.

Jaemin kept his arms around Eunbin as she rested her hands about Jaemin's arms as she turned her attention back to the shocked male as she said with an awfully rude tone, "I am with Jaemin ever since you transferred from the school. You were just a fun pawn to play with. Do you possibly think that we can ever end up together? I'm not who you think you are."

"She's the most precious being on the planet. And her father practically owns the school. Her status isn't matching yours at all."

Sanha felt his legs going weak as he felt his stomach turning in the inside as he has been lied to for a long time. Jaemin laughed with a sinister smile as he knew that this would be the worst thing that Sanha would ever feel in his lifetime. She knew that if she conversed with Sanha longer, it would make her feel uneasy now since she hated seeing people crying. She intermingled her fingers with Jaemin's as she pulled him away happily as they started to guess on what they should eat.

Sanha stared at the floor as his feet were stuck to the asphalt. He didn't know what to feel: anger or resentment. He should have realized it when Eunbin would basically ignore him at school. He fell for her in first sight, which that was his mistake of not knowing her true self. Of course, he couldn't dream of it since she revealed that she was at a higher stance. He was only used as a laughing measure. He turned around to them disappearing down the street as he gripped onto the flower shaped keychain inside his pocket. Nothing felt right again.

Gyuri looked over at Taehyung who was minding his own business as Jungkook and Gyuri were both gathered in Taehyung's office. She kept imagining the scene from earlier where Yohan and Taehyung were basically kind of fighting for her attention. She knew that Taehyung did it to actually just to tease her annoyingly since he had to be in that moment. She couldn't fully answer Yohan's date request due to Taehyung, and she ended up running inside the station without listening to Yohan ask once more.

Taehyung was laughing to himself the entire time since he really enjoyed doing that. He turned his attention to Jungkook, who was falling asleep as he was roaming through the files. He patted the younger's shoulder and told him that he can leave or take a few minute break. He knew that Jungkook wanted to work on the case so he picked the second option and left the office so that he could rest at his own desk.

Gyuri couldn't ignore the elephant in the room as she cleared her throat as she commented quietly, "Yohan's a good friend of mine."

"Seemed like he was being serious though."

"Ha, I've known him for many years. I know he did that a lot to mess around with me."

Gyuri muttered as she glanced at her computer for a few seconds before she suddenly felt her chin behind moved involuntarily as Taehyung smirked quietly as he stared at her. She widened her eyes as she felt her cheeks warming up immediately as she was definitely unsure about what was happening. Taehyung left his fingers holding onto her chin gently as he continued to quietly stare at her without a single word. She was afraid of asking what he was doing since she was also trying to figure out what his intentions were through the dreamy glints of his eyes.

He soon removed his fingers as he laughed loudly for a whole minute as the room was quiet and confusing. She wasn't really understanding what was happening as she stared at him with her eyebrows burrowing as a response. What was so funny?

Taehyung made his way back to his own desk as he continued to work without fully explaining what he was doing nor what his thoughts were. Gyuri was left dumbfounded as a peculiar man like Taehyung was extremely difficult to read for a clueless person like her. He knew immediately that her thoughts were pure and that she doesn't really understood feelings as easily.

Eunbin and Jaemin were angrily arguing among each other as she glared angrily at him for not listening to her properly. It was nearing the end day of study hall as they took a break together to talk to each other in response. "You realize that it's going to be a matter of time before Donghyuck, Seungkwan, and Junho are going to confess what really happened."

"You want us to reveal what we did?!"

"How could we? All the money we own right now, they can't make us testify."

Eunbin sat against the floor as she stared at the third person in the room as she then continued to speak as Jaemin pushed the third person onto the ground, "If anything happens, you're going to get all the responsibility. You better watch your mouth, Bae Jinyoung."

Jinyoung then got kicked on the stomach as he clutched onto the ground quietly in agony as Eunbin also threw his backpack at his face. He felt the tears burning down his cheeks as he was to feel no sympathy for what he did, but he knew that the first person that was going to be blamed for the whole thing....it would be him.
