""Y/N?"

I froze in my spot. I was not prepared to face him yet. Usually, he avoids me—what has happened now? Why is he calling me? I gulped.

"Why are you running away from me?"

I quickly turned around. It was embarrassing to get caught. "Anio. What makes you think so?" I tried to sound casual, but my voice was shaking. I looked in every other direction but his face.

"Why are your cheeks red and why are you sweating all of a sudden?"

I scolded my heart for beating so fast. I even mentally slapped myself, hard. "It's so hot today..." I laughed awkwardly. "You know, global warming and all that jazz."

"Global warming? Is that your excuse?" he raised an eyebrow, trying to suppress a smile.

"Hey, it's a valid reason! Blame the sun, not me!"

"Anyways, how do you feel now?"

For a moment, I was blank. Did he really just ask about my health? He waved his hand in front of my eyes to bring me back to reality. "Did you just ask me about my health?"

"Yes," he replied, looking slightly confused.

"I mean, you're caring for me... Since when?"

Now Yoongi was the one giving me an awkward smile. "I got my answer. You're as good as new, perhaps better." He turned and walked toward the building.

"HEY! ANSWER ME!" I ran after him, trying to keep up with his long strides.

......

It was English period, and Yoongi was attentively listening to the teacher. But you know, 'attention' and 'Jill' don't go together.

"Yoongi?" I whispered in his ear.

He jumped. "Geez! You scared me! What happened?" he whispered back.

"How is your mother now?"

He seemed lost for a second but quickly replied, "Ah, she's fine."

I responded with an 'O' and turned to the teacher, making sure she didn't suspect us talking.

"I'm sorry," he suddenly spoke out of the blue, looking serious.

I looked at him with wide eyes. "Says the one who always ignores me and finds it hard to even say a 'hello'? May I know the reason, please?" I said sarcastically.

"I-I am sorry f-for shouting at you that night. I was just stressed that day." He looked down, feeling guilty.

I had already forgiven him for that. I knew he didn't mean it. "It's okay. I forgive you. Just don't let it happen again, or I might have to get you a stress ball or something."

He chuckled, and for a moment, we both shared a light-hearted smile. After a few more minutes of silence, I asked, "What about your father?"

"He stays in Canada. He works there."

"And what about you two?"

"I'll complete my studies and then settle there. You know, the usual 'live the dream' kind of stuff." I felt a bit sad at his words. I do not want him to leave Korea.

Suddenly, someone tapped my shoulder. It was Saeyon, who sits behind me. "Can you please tell me the answer to this question?"

I turned around to see her looking at me with wide eyes, clearly hoping for a miracle. "Uh, can you repeat the question?"
