"Miwa, over here!" Jihoon waved at her as soon as he saw her. He was waiting in front of her locker so they could walk to class together.

"Hoonie!" Miwa ran to him when she saw him waving at her.

"Hoonie? New nickname, huh?" Jihoon smirked as he helped her with her books.

"What? You don't like it?" She pouted, making herself look even cuter, and Jihoon couldn't stand it.

"Of course I love it, honey bunch," Jihoon chuckled at her innocence. "Have you made any friends yet?" He was fine with it as long as they were girls.

"So far, not yet," she shrugged. "By the way, can I stay at your house for a while after school? Dad allowed me to since he'll be at his office."

Jihoon wasn't sure if he should let her. His friends were planning to hang out, play video games, and have snacks together. Still, he couldn't refuse her—she might get upset.

"Of course. My friends will be there as well," he said as they walked to their next class.

"Really? That's cool!" she exclaimed.

"So, here's the class." Jihoon gestured for her to enter first, trying to act like a gentleman. And why not? Jihoon was charming and gentlemanly—just a bit sensitive.

"Sit beside me, Miwa!" Jihoon pulled out a chair for her, and she gladly sat down.

"Girlfriend?" A voice asked from behind Jihoon.

Jihoon sighed, knowing this question was bound to come up. "No, Hyunsuk. She's my cousin, Miwa. Miwa, meet Hyunsuk, my best friend. I'll introduce you to my other friends during the break."

Hyunsuk smiled sweetly at her, his expression radiating charm. "Well, hi there, cutie. Nice to meet you." He winked at her.

"Uh—" Miwa stared at Hyunsuk strangely. She could already tell he was a flirt.

"Don't worry, he's always like that," Jihoon whispered into her ear. The close proximity of his lips to Miwa's ear could have been misinterpreted. Miwa bit her lower lip, feeling shy as his breath brushed her ear.

Now it was Hyunsuk's turn to look at them weirdly. He fake-coughed to get Jihoon's attention. Jihoon quickly pulled away, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.

"So, uh—let's talk about you, Miwa," Hyunsuk said, giving her a charming smile. He wanted her to fall for him.

Since the moment she walked into the classroom, Hyunsuk had felt his cheeks heat up.

"You're very close to Jihoon. Tell me his hidden personality." Hyunsuk smirked at Jihoon, whose eyes widened.

"Hmm—not much. Jihoon is a nice guy, you know," she said, smiling sweetly at Jihoon, who blushed in response.

"Jihoon? A nice guy? I don't see it. Anyway, let's change the topic. Do you have a boyfriend?" Hyunsuk asked without hesitation.

Jihoon smacked Hyunsuk's arm, half-playfully and half-seriously.

"Nope. I need to focus on my studies first since we'll be graduating this year," Miwa shrugged.

HYUNSUK

Mhm, studies? We'll see. I might ruin her focus and make her pay attention to me instead. This girl seems special. We just met today, but it feels like we've known each other for years. The way we talk so comfortably, I love it.

Setting Jihoon aside, I kind of ignored his presence. Sorry, Jihoon, but this cousin of yours is incredibly attractive and sweet.

Might as well ask her out one day. Like a date, aye?

Suddenly, Yoshi came banging on my desk, startling Jihoon, Miwa, and me.

"Sup, broskis!!" He sat beside me, resting his arms behind his head. I guess he didn't realize Miwa was here—or, should I say, my future girlfriend?

"Dude, stop doing that! You're going to kill us one day," I sighed, my heart still racing. Or maybe it was because my future girlfriend was here?

"Sorry, bro! Haha, I thought you guys were used to it by now," Yoshi said.

"But this time it was louder than before," Jihoon muttered, raising an eyebrow.

"Exactly," I agreed, nodding.

"Oh, and Yoshi, meet my cousin Miwa. Miwa, this is Yoshi, my best friend," Jihoon introduced them.

"Oh, sorry! I didn't notice you there, hehe," Yoshi said, rubbing the back of his neck.

Now he suddenly looked innocent. What the heck, Yoshinori?

"It's alright. Nice to meet you!" Miwa smiled.

Seriously, her smile is the best thing I've ever seen.

"You too!" Yoshi extended his hand for a handshake. Before Miwa could take it, I slapped Yoshi's hand away.

"What the—"

"Social distancing. No skin contact," I smirked smugly. Jihoon seemed amused too.

"What's poppin'?" A cute bunny-faced guy and a smaller guy joined us, casually pulling up chairs.

"Nothing much. Just here with Miwa," I said.

"M-Miwa?" Doyoung stammered, turning his head to see her. Miwa gave him a small smile.

"H-Hi, I'm Doyoung," Doyoung said, his cheeks slightly red.

Doyoung had been my best friend since middle school. He must already like her. What'd you expect? It's Park Miwa, Park Jihoon's cousin.

I noticed Mashiho awkwardly hiding behind Doyoung. What's with this guy?
