chapter 1 ✔︎

I walk at the high school hallway trying to find my friends, Yujin and Sola. We've known each other since kindergarten and since then we have become inseparable.

I enter the class and see Seol and Yujin drinking coffee. When they see me, they come to me and Yujin gives me a coffee too.

"Jay and I went to the cafe this morning before class and I bought you and Sola coffee too."

Yujin and Jay have been together since high school start, I still don't fully trust Jay because he's friends with Jake, my enemy. But that's not the only reason, Jay is in Enhypen with Jake, they're quite popular in school, actually, very popular, they're very smart, handsome, tall and good at everything, many girls have crushes on they. I'm just afraid that my friend not to be hurt by Jay, although so far, Jay is very nice when it comes to Yujin.

"It was also time to think about how much I love coffee" I say and take a sip of coffee.

"I know how much you love coffee," says Yujin

"Aha, if you say so, since you've been together with Jay, you've replaced me with him when we have to go to the cafe"

"Jealous?" she says and laughs

I roll my eyes and turn to Sola.

"I'm not giving you homework" she tells me before I can say anything.

"Why not?"

"I always give it to you"

"It's a tradition, you have to respect it"

She sighs.

"Okay, but you have to do me a favor"

"Oh no"

"Better a favor than a bad grade , right?" She says while smiling like a devil.

I look a little scared because I know what can go through her mind.

"Come on Jae In, you have nothing better to do anyway" says Yujin

"Okay, what does your majesty want?"

"Today a new cafe is opening and Sunghoon will be there, so come with me" she says as she claps her hands happily.

Sunghoon is her crush, but she is much too shy to be around him alone, Yujin most of the time eats with Jay and his friends at the table, so Sola does not miss the chance to eat with Sunghoon, but the the worst part is that they drag me to the table with them, to the table with Jake.

"Anyway, I have no choice, now give me the homework"

I started to write my homework very fast, and I finish just a few minutes before the teacher comes.

Mr. Choi's class is the hardest of all, especially when it's the first hour of the day, you say it lasts all day, it exhausts me too much, even though it's only an hour.

The bell rings, and when Mr. Choi leaves the class, I put my head on the bench.

"Why does he give us homework if he doesn't even check it? He has no idea how hard I struggle to copy it, tsk"

"You only use your hand to copy, I also use my brain" comments Sola.

"But Jae In doesn't have such a thing" Yujin says and hits my head "See? it sounds like nothing, it's empty" Yujin jokes and Sola laughs.

"My mind can't think about unimportant things" I say and take a sip of the coffee that has already cooled.

"So Jake is important if you think about him?" Sola says and I choked the coffee.

"I think your mind is messed up from too much homework" I say and roll my eyes.

"If you say so" Sola continued.

"Sola, Jay told me he wants to see me, he's with the boys, are you coming?"

"You already know my answer" she says and gets up.

"Jae In?"

"No, no, I don't even know how you thought to ask me such a thing"

"Oh, come on, you have to, we won't leave you here alone" they say and drag me out of the classroom.

We get outside, Yujin runs and hugs Jay, while Sola and I look at the two who seem like they haven't seen each other for many years.

I guess that's what love is, right?

Sola sees Sunghoon and starts looking down shyly.

I sigh and push her next to him on the bench.

I smile in victory until I see Jake coming towards us.

"Oh, Jae In, what's on your face?" Jake asked me anxious.

"Hm? Am I dirty or something?"

"Nah, it's just ugly" he says and walks past me sitting next to Jungwon smiling victoriously.

Just what did he tell me I'm ugly?

This boy, well he has enough beauty for both of us, I say sarcastically in my mind.

I ignore what he said and sit next to Sola, making her even closer to Sunghoon.

"Jae In, are you coming with me to buy ice cream?" Ni-ki asks me.

"Yeah"

Anything just to not be face to face with Jake.

"I'm coming with you too" says Jake and gets up.

I sigh.

"Now if Jake comes with you, there's no point in me coming too" I say trying to escape.

"You're coming too" says Jake to me.

"Come on" says Ni-ki and grabs my wrist

It's going to be a long day.
