Kanghyun's Side

"I'll help on Kang's end. Wish you luck with Keon." I said then moved my character over to help Seoho who held Kanghyun back.

They managed to keep Keonhee still despite him frantically moving around. The crowd started to disperse, leaving us six in the courtyard.

"Keon, why can't you just talk it out with him?" Seoho asked as Kanghyun simply remained still in my arms.

"Why? Who in their right mind would want to talk to their assailant? What more is there to say other than he wants me dead?" Keonhee barked before glaring at Kanghyun. "Kill him before he kills me."

We all looked at Kanghyun who hasn't said a word the entire time. Was it guilt? I heard a loud groan then noticed Dongju and Harin had ended up on top of Keonhee.

"Get off! You're heavy as hell." complained Keonhee.

"We can't trust that you won't hurt him." Harin said. "Kanghyun, what's the truth here? Did you really assault him?"

We quietly looked at him. I peered into his face and noticed he was crying. I wasn't expecting that.

"I didn't mean it... it was all an accident. Believe me, Keon." he said in between sniffles.

"So you admit to it!" Keonhee said in a slightly strangled voice. "I knew it!"

"He said it was an accident! The man is crying for pete's sake!" Seoho shouted, surprising everyone. "Just let him speak. It's better to know everything."

Kanghyun had gone limp in my arms. A part of me worried he had passed out.

"You okay...?" I asked quietly.

Kanghyun gained five happy points.

"Just a bit dizzy..." he mumbled before standing up without my help. "What I'm going to say is the honest truth. You're free to believe me, or not."

We patiently waited as he wiped his eyes. A part of me didn't want him to speak if it was that distressing.

"We we're heading back to my place at night and as usual, Keon was bouncing around and being goofy. I was holding a flower pot, one of the bigger ones that you usually see by the front door. So my frontal vision was limited. Keon warned me about a bunch of stairs, so he went in front of me to help. As we were getting situated to walk down, I was spooked by a leaf and..." he said then trailed off. He looked at Keonhee with immense remorse. "I was so scared... you were just lying there unmoving..."

He started to break down in tears. We all except Keonhee had gathered by his side. I know what it felt like, feeling guilty for hurting someone else, especially someone close to you.

"Kanghyun..." we heard Keonhee say. "I... I guess I remembered wrong..."

"What do you mean...?" asked Kanghyun through his tears.

"I thought you were waiting for me to get into position to push me..." he mumbled while looking away. "I'm the one who should be apologizing, especially after all the death threats..."

We quietly watched as the both of them shared a teary hug.

Kanghyun gains fifty happy points.
Keonhee gains fifty happy points.

I looked at Dongju who seemed happy with the results as well. A part of me wondered if things would've gone a different way had I decided to side with Keonhee. The pink box appeared again and the rest of us had gained five happy points.

"I feel good inside..." I mumbled then felt Dongju nudge me. "What?"

"Maybe we're nearing the end? When the climaxes finally come and endings are decided." he said cheerily.

"I wouldn't bet on it." I said with a sigh. "Pretty sure we've missed the beginning of first period at that."

Despite having said that, I was happy that our torn friend group was slowly starting to heal. Soon a text notification appeared and it opened up to a Youtube video. I looked to my right and saw Dongju disappeared. I looked back at the screen and read the title.

"Student Sextape... No. No, no, no, no. What is he doing!?" I said in a frustrated tone. I accidentally refreshed the page then noticed the video was no longer available. "He's teasing..."
