The sun was high but it was not hot, instead it was chilly. The school field was packed with people who visited the school for the fair.

"Stop whining like a child." Tao said for a trillionth time as he pass another customer a keychain.

"I'm hungry! I didn't have time for breakfast, and I certainly didn't put my name to do this job."

She helped on passing brochures.

"This is your class booth too. Of course you have to help." Tao replied as he walked back to the booth to retrieve more keychain. Luna trotted behind him.

"I'm not clothed for this!" She motioned to her tee and shorts.

The wind blew again and she crouched on the ground, hugging her legs.

Tao sighed and took off his jacket.

"Take this." Luna snatched it and quickly wore it. It still had Tao's warmth.

"I'm still hungry."

Tao sighed again and walked to the girl who was in the same class, and handed her the keychains.

"Take care of this."

"Okay oppa!" She answered excitedly, happy because Tao talked to her.

Luna rolled her eyes. A bulb light in her mind and she jumped next to Tao, hugging his arm.

"Oppa let's go." She said cutely.

Tao raised his brows but he played along anyway.

"Right, this is Luna my girlfriend. But you wouldn't know her anyway, since she's basically invisible in the class." He swung his arms on her shoulders.

Luna narrowed her eyes but still smiling anyway. "Oh oppa, you're exaggerating." And pinched his cheek a little to hard.

The girl's eyes wide as saucers as she looked from Luna to Tao.

"Shall we go?" Luna said. "Goodbye Jiyeon." She chirped and dragged Tao away.

When they're away from the booth Luna shrugged off Tao's arm and start laughing.

"Oh my God. Her face, its priceless!"

Tao slung his arm back to her shoulders and she stopped laughing. She tried to peel it off but he locked her head in his arms.

"Yah! Your hand is heavy!"

"Tsk, can you bring it down a little? You're noisy."

"Ugh." She groaned and finally let him.

They stopped in front of a Japanese food stand and everyone basically stared at the couple whom one bickering so loud and the other only rolled his eyes at whatever she said.

"I want another takoyaki." Luna said.

"You already have two." Tao replied, pointing to the boat-like paper boxes in her hand.

Tao pulled out some money to pay the student who stood behind the stand, obviously surprised at the sight of him and Luna together.

"Well, then buy another one." She replied, crossing her arms. "You're the one who dragged me into this."

Tao sighed. "Give her another boat." He said and paid for the food.

"Thanks!" She chirped and popped one takoyaki into her mouth. "Ummhh is deyisous."

"Don't talk with your mouth full." Tao muttered and snatched the boat from her hands.

"Is mine!" She yelled. The wasabi went into a wrong hole in her throat and she coughed uncontrollably.

Tao gave her back the boat. His eyes showed concern.

"Are you okay?"

Luna pointed to her neck.

"Do you need water? Wait here." Tao rushed off and returned a while later with a bottled water.

Luna downed half of the bottle in seconds.

"Yah, why did you take my takoyaki?"

"Fine, its all yours. Are you okay? Don't talk while you're eating anymore."

***

The gossip of Tao dating a girl was becoming viral at school and Luna grew restless. She was gaining more glares from the jealous girls, even some snickers from the boys. Apparently, Tao had another reputation of dumping girls once he had popped their cherry.

A girl screamed at her in the hallway and she ran into the restroom. She bumped into a girl with big eyes and curly hair held with a pink bow.

"I'm sorry." Luna apologized as she picked up the pink lipgloss that landed on the floor and handed it to the girl.

"That's okay. Wait, Tao's flavour of the week right?"

Luna's face fell with that nickname and the girl seemed to realize that.

"I'm sorry, that's what they call you. I'm Hara." Hara held out her hand and Luna accepted it.

"Luna."

"I know, I'm planning to meet you but I never knew we're going to meet at such place."

Luna's eyes widened. "Y-you want to meet me?"

"Yeah! I think we can be good friends! Oh, the bell's ringing. I gotta go. See you later Luna."

Luna smiled. Someone has finally want to be friend with her. She walked to the class with a big smile on her face.

Tao stared at the grinning girl who walked towards his way.

"Someone asked me to be her friend." She said and slid into her seat next to him.

"Who?"

Luna stuck out her tongue. "Not your business."

Mr. Kim walked in the class and started talking. "Alright class, we are going to do a project, but in pairs. So find your partner quickly."

The girls in front of them turned behind and spoke in unison.

"Tao, wanna be in our group?"

"But I thought Mr. Kim said in pairs?" Luna asked.

Jiyeon glared at her, obviously still thinking about what happened in the fair.

Juliane rolled her eyes. "Well duh, we can get exception from Mr. Kim."

Tao raised his hand.

"Yes Tao?" Mr. Kim asked.

"Sir, I'm pairing up with Luna."

The class oohed while the girls gasped in horror.

Mr. Kim narrowed his eyes. "This project must be finished before next week. There's no time for lovey dovey, Tao, I hope you're aware of that."

"Yes sir, I'm aware of that. We'll be submitting our project before next week."

One last glare from the teacher and finally he waved his hand.

"I can't believe you did that!" Luna whispered-shouted at Tao.

"Why? Can't I team up with my own girl?" Tao leaned back and grinned.

"It is only supposed to be an act!" She replied, as the rest of the class started to move to find their pairs.

"You're impossible!"

"So make me possible."

Luna groaned.

***

Luna sat down on the sofa as her eyes roamed through the living room. Tao sat across her playing with his phone.

"Psst, your house is huge." She whispered.

"Its not my house, its my stepdad's." He replied, not taking his eyes off his screen.

Tao's Mom came bringing two glasses of juice and a plate of cookies.

"Tao never bring a girl back before, it's great to see he's actually hanging out with one." Mrs. Shin said, placing a glass in front of Luna.

"Oh really.." Luna trailed off. Tao glanced at her.

"Told you I'm not gay." He said flatly and his Mom laughed.

"Alright son, now I know. So are you two dating?"

Luna choked on her drink. "Um no actually-"

"Yes."

Luna snapped her head at Tao who shrugged while his Mom gasped and smiled.

"Oh that's great! Would you stay for dinner?"

"I um-"

"No, we won't stay for dinner." Tao stood up and walked to his room. "Luna."

"I'm sorry, eomeonim. I- I better go after him."

Mrs. Shin smile was sad as she nodded. "Right, please do. I'll bring the snacks up in a moment. And Luna, please take care of him."

Luna nodded reluctantly and trailed after Tao.

She was wide eyed when she walked into Tao's room. He was lying on the bed still playing his game. She walked around looking at the frames.

A picture of a window overlooking the sea caught her eyes.

"You took this?"

"Mhmm."

Luna nodded and walked to the other frame, it was the same, except it was painted. The window, the sea. It looked the same, but not the feeling, it was sadder.

"Don't tell me, you painted this?"

"Mhmm."

She spun on her heels to the lounging Tao.

"What? I didn't know you can paint!"

Tao glanced up and continued playing his game.

"Mhmm."

Luna rolled her eyes.

She walked again to a lone painting at the corner of the big room and stared at it. It was a painting of a girl, whose only back and half of her face was painted, sitting on the ground, gazing at the town ahead.

The girl's curly hair was blew gently by the wind, and a little pink ribbon was clipped at the side of her hair, keeping her hair from her face.

As she studied the painting, she felt a great longing and in love at the same time. But that was not what left her in awe. The fact that Tao painted it so nice that the girl looked, almost looked like the girl she bumped into at the restroom.

She looked like Hara.
