Mina is happy. Though it's not unusual for her to be happy there's something about Mondays that just too sad to be too happy. But not today.


Mina went out of her house to be greeted by Mark who was leaning by their gate with hands in his pockets. Is it just her or is he getting more handsome each day?


"Mark!" Mina called her boyfriend.


Boyfriend. it's been a day and it still hasn't sunk in that Mark is her boyfriend. Mina has pondered on this for a thousand times before and although everything happened unexpectedly, she wouldn't change a thing, especially if that meant having Mark be on her porch at 6:30 am waiting for her.


They were walking side by side, their hands casually brushing against each other. Mark noticed it and giggled inwardly. If he felt shy yesterday, he won't be anymore. He slowly leaned down and reached for Mina's hand and held it. To Mark's surprise, Mina intertwined her fingers with his, tightening the hold.


Mark blushed, if you tell Mark a year ago that he would be holding hands while walking to school with Kang Mina, he would laugh at you and ask if you're high. He didn't expect all of this, but he wouldn't change a thing especially if that means getting to hold Mina's hand every day.


"Oh! I remember!" Mina said suddenly, making Mark halt on his steps.


"What is it?"


"How are we going to tell our friends that we're together?"


Their friends. Mark felt stupid, with all his time spent on studying for the quiz bee and his feelings with Mina, he hadn't got the time to share in detail what had happened in his life these past few days.


Mina felt the same as well, though she tries to talk to them every day, she still hasn't said a lot about her feelings for Mark.


"I mean, once they get to see us holding hands, I'm sure they will ask why. Let's just tell them then."


Mina nodded, "okay."


-------------------------------------


Mark and Mina felt strange, walking along the corridors holding hands when all they did before was a fight.


Mark opened the door to their classroom while holding Mina's hand.


They stepped inside and...


Well, it wasn't really that climatic, their classmates couldn't care more about them. Most of them just passed them a glance or two, checking just to confirm what they see is real.


The both of them walked towards their friends who were in their world, talking before the bell rings.


"Hi, guys!" Mina started once they reached their friends.
