Girl Who Cried Wolf

Guard Dog

Sowon made sure to keep Eunha close to her at all times throughout the day. She was prepared to fight anyone who dared to hurt her. Eunha felt bad for making her follow her around like a guard dog, but Sowon didn't mind it all.

"It's kind of cute." Yerin smiled from behind them.

"Yerin, you think some weird things are cute." Eunbi responded.

"Thats why I think you're cute." Yerin pinched her cheeks.

"She's calling you weird." Umji chirped in seeing that Eunbi was confused by Yerin's comment.

"Hey!" Eunbi slapped her arm.

"Don't worry, I love weird people." Yerin hugged her.

"I'll walk you to your first class." Sowon announced while Eunha put her things in her locker.

"But your class is all the way across the building from mine, you'll be late."

"I don't care if I'm late. I'll run there if I have to." Sowon shrugged. She was committed to making sure Eunha was okay.

"I love that you're being protective of me, but you already have too many absences and I want you to graduate."

"Okay. I'll make Umji take you to class since she has to go that way anyways."

"Sounds like a plan. I'll see you at lunch." Eunha wrapped her arm around Umji's and headed towards their class.

"So are you going to try and find out who did it?" Yerin asked before Sowon could leave.

"I'm not going to worry about them. I'm just going to stick by Eunha's side until it blows over."

"You do know what this means though, right?" Eunbi whispered.

"What?"

"Someone knows you and Eunha are dating. If this gets to the principal and spreads around the school, things could escalate to more than just a rumor that needs to blow over."

"I'm aware of that. I've got this all under control, don't worry about it." Sowon had a promising look.

"Where the hell is Eunha at?" Sowon began to look around the cafeteria as she sat down.

"I saw her go to the bathroom." Yerin mentioned.

"Oh...okay." Sowon seemed to relax after that.

"So, what do we do if these girls keep messing with her? Do we have, like, a plan or something?" Umji questioned.

"The girls were freshmen." Yuju informed. "They aren't going to stop messing with Eunha because she's a senior, they know that if they keep bothering her then Eunha will fight back at some point which will result in her not getting to graduate, I think that's their plan." Yuju was quite proud of herself for coming up with that theory on her own.

"Wait so you think they're trying to stop her from graduating?" Yerin was surprised. She knew freshmen could be harsh, but she didn't realize they were this ruthless.

"You know what they look like?" Sowon finally spoke to Yuju.

"Yeah, I saw them."

"Do you want me to forgive you for kissing my girlfriend?"

"Yes of course. What can I do to help?" Now Yuju looked interested in what Sowon had to say.

"Tell me what they look like or pin point them to me when you see them, I'll forgive you if you do that for me."
