I can't believe it's been months now. 2 months and 3 weeks, to be exact. And next next week will be Jihyun's birthday. June 29. ^-^

Every day was just like any other ordinary day.

Minho and I will always meet up during lunch in the library. We never got tired of each other. I already know so much about him, and so does he. I even told him about my having issues with friendship. He would always oppose my point of view on this matter. Our time would be consumed debating. But still, he respected it, so he never called us "friends." And I always react when he dares to bring up the topic of us being friends. As a result, we'll start debating all over again.

While Taemin? He constantly wraps his arms around mine every P.E. class. We really do look like mother and son. He never left my side. Since the saving thing, I have been famous in class, so many boys have approached me. But I'm not interested. Taemin started doing the work as if he knew what I was thinking. When someone tries to come to me, he'll begin throwing death glares at him. If it doesn't work, he'll act as if he is having tantrums. He would shut the guy by shouting, then he'd keep on calling "noona!' to me and even sitting between the guy and me. Leaving the poor guy with no chance to talk to me.

Like what a loving mother would do when her son was having tantrums in front of other people, I'll excuse ourselves and leave the guy behind. Once he's out of sight, Taemin would return to his usual self and begin grinning at his job well done.

And pervy? Nah..no comment. It's as if I don't exist. He's busy flirting with his Tiffany-the slut. Well, not really. The slut was doing all the flirting, and he just let her.

Tiffany, the slut would try walking with him, and he would just let her. Hmph! But what do I care anyway? They're a perfect couple. Pervert and slut.

I was on my way to pick up Jihyun when I saw them walking together, again, ahead of me. The slut was doing all the talking while pervy had his earphones on, not paying any attention to the trying-hard slut. While Jonghyun seems to be busy on his phone on his right.

I walked faster and passed them. I can't stand a minute looking at them. It makes me want to puke. Annoying!

"Woah. You should have a look at yourself in the mirror. Look at that annoyed face!" I was stopped by a familiar voice.

"Hyung! Noona is still pretty no matter what she looks like." someone then started wrapping his arms around mine.

You already have an idea who did that, right?

I just messed up Taemin's hair and turned to Minho.

"Minho, you know each other?" We were smiling at each other.

"Yep. We're in the same class. And we're friends." Tsk. He really emphasized the word friend.

I glared at him. He started laughing and messed up my hair.

"Hmp!" I heard someone.

"Hyuuuuuung!!" Taemin started running towards pervy and wrapped his arms around pervy's just as he did to me.

Taemin glared at the slut beside pervy. "Who are you? I don't like you! Don't you ever get near Key hyung again!" Taemin shooed the slut. With that, she left running.

Hahahaha. You're really the best Taemin!!

"You heading home?" Minho asked me.

"Hyung! Let's go home together." Taemin asked pervy.

"Eh? Ahh.. I still have a lot of homework to do. Next time. I'll go ahead."

I furrowed. Homework? We don't have one. O.o

Pervy messed Taemin's hair, glared at Minho, then dragged Jonghyun along, still not looking at me. Seriously??

"So, you heading home?" Minho asked me again.

"ahh..yeah! But I'm still waiting for my sister."

"Noona has a sister? I want to meet her!" Taemin was already beside Minho.

"Then let's just walk together." Minho suggested.

"Eh?" was all I could say.

"That's a great idea! Noona, let's walk home together!" Taemin used his aegyo to make me agree. I want to decline, but I just can't refuse his cuteness.

"Unnie~!"

Oh! Jihyun! Great timing! You just saved me from Taemin's cuteness.

(MINHO'S POV)

"Unnie!I'm sorry I took too long." the girl who just arrived panted.

"Jihyunnie??" Taemin asked.

Wa..wai..wait! Jihyun? Our classmate is Jewel's sister??

Jihyun turned to us, and then she began to turn pale.

"You know my sister?" Jewel looked confused.

Taemin nodded energetically.

"We're both in the same class." Jihyun said before Taemin could answer.

"And we're friends! How wonderful! My noona and my friend are siblings! This is wonderful!" Taemin said dreamily.

Jewel glared at Jihyun, who had her head bent down with her eyes shut close.

Something's going on here.

"Friend?" Jewel repeated slowly.

"Uhuh! Uhuh! Not just friends. We're close friends!" Taemin again.

Jewel's face turned to stone for a second, but a smile flashed on her face afterward.

"I'm sorry, Taemin. We really have to go. Maybe next time."

With that, I think Jewel grabbed Jihyun's arms hard coz Jihyun flinched.

"Unnie." Jihyun said quietly.

"But noona! It would be nice if...hmmmmmm!!" I covered Taemin's mouth with my hands.

"Go." I told Jewel, and then she dragged a scared-looking Jihyun along.

Now I remember! She once told me that she forbade herself from having friends. Judging by her reactions, could her rule in life also cover Jihyun?

"Hmmm! Hmmm!"

Oh! Taemin! I forgot about him. I removed my hand from his mouth to stop him from whining again.

"Ya! Hyung! You almost killed me!" he pouted.

"Sorry. Go home. I'm going somewhere else."

He stared at me, then shrugged.

"Okay. Bye, hyung!" we both waved each other goodbye.

Now. Where did they go?

(KEY'S POV)

"Hi?" I turned boredly and saw Tiffany beside me.

"What?" I snapped.

"Can I walk with you?" she asked with a huge smile.

I just shrugged.

Seriously, there's no use refusing her. Have I told you she's got a massive crush on me? Tsk. I tried denying her a lot of time, but she's so persistent that I let her do what she wants.

"Aish!" Jonghyun suddenly yelled at his cell phone.

"Ya! Why are you so busy? What are you playing?" I asked Jonghyun to prevent a conversation with this itchy and talkative girl beside me.

"Bejeweled." he answered absentmindedly as his eyes focused again on his phone.

beJEWELed??

Wait! Why is the word Jewel in all CAPS and bold??!!

Geez! Thanks, Jonghyun! You just reminded me of the bitchiest bitch I've ever met. Geez! I hate her! Why? I just do! Since when? Since the day she was born. I was destined to hate her.

And it just annoys the hell out of me every time I see Minho and that bitch together. Why? I don't know!

Oh! Right! I know why! Because I'm jealous. Uh-huh. I'm jealous. I'm jealous because she's bitching Minho from us. Before, he had his full, undivided attention only to us. But since that bitch came along, his attention was already divided. She's taking away Minho from us. And it annoys me so much that my mood will automatically darken every time I see her. I haven't been talking to her because I hate her. And I'm not in the mood to talk to her because I hate her. Do I make sense? Tss!

Is that really the only reason?

Omona (oh my gosh)! Who said that? Was it me? Was it my conscience? My subconscious mind? My inner thought? Tss! Whatever! It's babbling nonsense, anyway. Of course, it's the only reason! Is there any other??

Hah! Speaking of the bitch. She just walked past me. Ooohh. And guess who's walking towards her.

Minho said something I couldn't hear because of these stupid earphones, so I decided to remove them from my ears. Then I saw Taemin wrap his arms around the bitch. No! Teamin! Don't hug her! Don't dirty your innocent and pure skin with that bitch's skin!

"Yup! We're in the same class. And we're friends." I heard Minho say.

As if there was a secret behind what he said that only the two of them knew, Jewel glared at Minho, making him laugh and mess her hair.

Wow. Are they already sharing secrets with each other? Are they that close already? And she was glaring at Minho, so she's not the pretender bitch in front of Minho?

Out of nowhere, I felt a light sting inside of me as a "hmph" sound escaped from my mouth.

Geez. What was that? An ant bit me? Stupid ant!

"Hyuuuuuung!" Taemin started running towards me and wrapped his arms around mine.

"Who are you? I don't like you! Don't you ever get near Key hyung again!" Taemin snapped at Tiffany.

Hahahaha! I never knew Taemin could be such a bitch! Tiffany then started running away. Hahahaha. Thanks, Taemin.

"You heading home?" I heard Minho asked the bitch.

Tss! So are they walking home together?

"Hyung! Let's go home together!" Teamin told me.

"Eh? Ahh.. I still have a lot of homework to do. Maybe next time. I'll go ahead." I tried to lie.

From the corner of my eye, I saw the bitch furrowed. Geez! Great! How could I forget she's my classmate and knows I'm lying! I was lucky Jonghyun was busy, or else he would have butt in and say we really don't have any homework. Since when did I become a lousy liar? And why an obvious lie out of all the lies I could have told? Aish!

I messed Taemin's hair, glared at Minho- why did I glare at him??- and dragged Jonghyun before I would make a fool of myself more.

As we left the building, a girl I didn't know approached Jonghyun. He automatically removed his attention from his phone and turned to the girl. The girl is pleading or expressing her love for the girl-killer Jonghyun. I boredly returned my earphones to my ears as I waited for them to finish talking.

"Key." After a while, he turned at me rather tensely. "ahm..could you go ahead? I still have to--" So that's why he was tensed. He let me wait here for nothing?!

"What?! You let me wait here and tell me to go ahead? You let me waste my precious time for nothing? Hah!" I left the scene, never looking back at that stupid dinosaur.

I was about to reach the gate when I saw the bitch and her sister. A dark aura surrounded her. I hid as I saw her coming closer in my direction.

Geez! Why was I hiding?

I haven't got time to see her sister's reaction coz another person caught my attention.

Minho was running out of the building. He seems to be searching for something or someone.

Hah! Did he finally dump the bitch? Then the bitter, broken-hearted bitch just can't accept it and run away? And Minho, being the gentleman he is, tried to search for her and ask for forgiveness? I laughed at my own nonsense thoughts. My imagination is going wild.

I better head home. I checked my wristwatch. Hmm.. Mom and Dad would be home by now.
