Jung Miyoung POV

"You like shit"

Eunmi slipped into the seat across from me, smacking down her lunch tray

"I am shit"

I wasn't able to sleep after the car escape incident. I rarely admitted it, but I fucked up big time with Hyungwon. First, I said mean things to him, then I stole stuff about him that he didn't want anyone to know, then I awkwardly fled from his house after voluntarily driving there. All of it while he was depressed with a broken leg

But I wasn't losing sleep because Hyungwon. I was losing sleep because I could literally feel myself becoming less and less competent. He made me stupid

"Do you want to talk about it?"

Eunmi looked at me with concern. She was probably the only person who genuinely gave a shit about me, and I haven't even told her what was going on with Hyungwon. Well, the majority of it

"Not really, but I should"

I sat up straight as Eunmi sipped her juice and focused her undivided attention on me.

"So.. Hyungwon. He's, uh, he's depressed"

Eunmi began violently hacking, from choking on her juice

"What the heck?" she sputtered "Chae Hyungwon?"

"Yeah" I confirmed quickly

"What? What doe he have to be depressed about?"

I hesitated. It wasn't my place to tell Eunmi about Hyungwon's past. I wasn't even supposed to know

"I don't know. He just is"

"Well, make him un-depressed! This is so weird. He's so outgoing and easygoing and generally happy. How can he be depressed?"

"I don't know how make him happy again"

Eunmi's large doe eyes glazed over with sympathy.

"Oh honey" she cooed, taking my hand "this must be so hard for you"

"Ugh, I know" I said, before coming to my senses and drawing back my hand

"Wait, what? I don't like him if that's what you're saying!"

"Mm hm. Why else would you be so concerned in making him happy again?"

"Because sad Hyungwon is really weird. And because there's no more competition"

"There's Jooheon. He placed second didn't he?"

"Yeah,but, Jooheon is different. He's really nice and he doesn't like competition"

Eunmi nodded thoughtfully

"Hm.. it seems like you're the only one Hyungwon isn't nice to. We've only talked a few times, him and me, and I expected him to be so mean from all the shit you tell me, but he was so nice. I was taken a back"

I sneered at the notion of polite of Hyungwon

"Yeah, right, nice. He only does that to maintain his popularity"

"I disagree. I think he either really hates you, or he really likes you"

I almost laughed
