Win Your Heart ( Mark / Mina )

WYH2

3rd Person POV

Mina woke up the next day with puffy eyes. Disoriented and with her head pounding, she made her way towards her bathroom to get ready for school. She looks through the mirror, giving herself a small smile and an encouragement she badly needed. 

Trying to cheer herself up, Mina used more time to get ready than she would usually use. It's a good thing her father was not there, He always leaves the house pretty early, which Mina was extremely thankful for, not wanting to see the disappointment in her father's eyes so early in the morning. 

"Mina, your father and I will fetch you later okay, It'll be good, we can celebrate your grades later." Her mother said as she was going out the door. 

Her grades. She completely forgot about those. Wondering what might happen later, her face paled. She nodded at her mother and went out through the door. 

-------------------------------- 

Walking has been relaxing for Mina, especially when her father gets angry at her, which is quite a few times every month. The sounds that those swaying trees and its leaves are a good companion for an early walk to school. 

"Mina!" Someone called her from behind. 

"Oh, hi Hyunjin!" 

Hyunjin is also her friend, apart from Sejeong and Nayoung. They are also in the same class, he's part of their school's dance group, SKZ.

"Mind if I join you?" 

"No, of course not." She answered his question, and then we step in a comfortable silence. 

"I almost forgot, congratulations Mina!" Hyunjin said with a huge smile.

"Thank you, Hyunjin." She replied with a smile equal to his. 

They weren't that close, but it's easy to find a conversation with someone you're comfortable with. Mina almost forgot the problem she's about to face.

When they both arrive at their classroom, Mina's classmates surrounded her like they are bees and she's the only flower in the garden. A variety of congratulations and her replies of thank you can be the only thing heard in that moment. 

They started their class when their teacher arrived after a few minutes. She tried to listen, but every time she focuses on her teacher, her mind drifts to what might happen later. 

"Hey!" Mina snapped out of her thoughts when Sejeong called her. 

"Huh? Oh, Is Miss Kim making us do something?" Mina asked. 

"Aren't you listening? Miss Kim will be out until the last subject because they have to prepare our grades for later."
