“Wait, where are you going?”

“I’m going home,” then I looked at his hand which is holding my wrist, “and stop touching me, Wonwoo.”

“But my car is over there.”

“Who says I’m going home with you? There are so many taxi here, why should I choose your car?”

“Nara, please. Can’t you listen to me? It’s already late, what if something happened to you? And you 

are still wearing your uniform for God’s sake!”

“I think you are the one who should listen to me. First, what’s the point of sticking with you when you 

are just using me for this and that without my confirmation? Second, we are just a stranger, you are not 

in a position to tell me what to do. Third, I’m okay - I really am. I might be young but I can handle 

everything by myself. Lastly, being with you is more dangerous than being alone.”

 

I stopped a taxi in front of me and left Wonwoo standing there looking at me. That guy really need to 

know how to treat a girl properly. Just because I kissed him back that day, doesn’t mean he could drag 

me here and there and say that I’m his girlfriend - and kiss me anytime he wants.

 

“How’s your date?” was the first question that my brother asked when I got home.

“Did he say that we are going on a date?”

“No, but what else?”

 

Answering him would just make everything worse. I’m already tired to have a fight with my annoying 

brother tonight, so I just ignored him and locked the door.

 

I know that it’s wrong to think about him, but, did I just yell at him? But he is the one at fault though. 

Uh, still, his face kept appearing on my mind. And that girl, I wonder why they broke up?

 

Okay, I really need to stop.

 

Nothing special about my night when suddenly my morning becomes weird. Wonwoo is sitting with 

my Mom and my brother, just casually eating the cereal like what the?

 

“What are you doing here?”

He smiled, “I’m going to drive you to school.”

“In your dream.”

“Language, Nara!” my Mom scolded me. “Wonwoo just came far away from Apgujeong to drive you 

back to Apgujeong. Learn to respect people, Nara.”

 

Learn to respect people she says. This guy is the only one who needs to respect me.

 

“Who told him to came? No one. That’s not my problem.”

“Wonwoo, I’m sorry. Sometimes Nara is like that but you can just take her with you to school, she will 

be fine.”

“Mom!”

“Can’t you just go with him already, Kim Nara? What’s wrong with you? Did something happened last 

time that made you like this?”

 

Yes. My brother should know everything. Or not.

 

I scoffed, “Come on, Wonwoo. I’m late.”

 

Really, before everything got worse, I should take Wonwoo out of this place already. And at least he 

brought his motorcycle again so he won’t mess up my morning. I really don’t want to be late anymore, really.

 

Wonwoo kept talking about yesterday and apologized but I just acted like I didn’t hear him. Doesn’t he 

know that I’m already in a bad mood since the morning? Why should he talked about the incident?

 

“Thank you.” I gave him the helmet. “This is the last time, stop following me. Go get another girl for 

you to use, I’m just a high school girl you know?”

“I’m sorry, Nara. I really -”

“Kim Nara, we are running out of time!” someone shouted from behind and when I looked back, it’s Mingyu. 

“Come on.” he grabbed my wrist, making me walk with him.

 

“Let me go.”

“Okay.” he really let me go easily. “Next time, don’t fight with your boyfriend in front of the school. That’s 

embarrassing.”

“But he is not my boyfriend though.”

“Really?!” he jumped so... Happily? “I mean, really?” then he changed the facial expression to the annoying one 

again.

“Yeah, just an annoying stranger.”

“I see, you really attached to the stranger.”

“What do you mean? I’m not attached to him - I will never.”

 

The teacher is calling our name to give us the score of our previous quiz. Yeah, the quiz that was messed 

up because of Wonwoo. I don’t care about it since I will be the first place anyway.

 

“Wow, Kim Mingyu and Kim Nara seems to change spot now?”

“What?”

 

No way. Mingyu ranked first? And I ranked second? Is it because Wonwoo? Because he kissed me that I 

couldn’t concentrate on my study and arrived late on the next day? Just because of him, I lost my spot to 

Kim Mingyu? No way.

 

But as I remembered I filled them right? How could I make a mistake like this?

 

“Come on, Nara. I heard that today’s lunch is meat.”

 

I didn’t answer Kwon Byul and just following her from behind.

 

“What happened? Is it because the rank? This is just a pre-quiz, Nara. Don’t take it too serious.”

“Nara?”

“Oh man, Nara. You only lost your spot once to Kim Mingyu, you can take it back easily!”

“Nara, don’t say you are going to spend the whole day pouting and keep ignoring me? Just because that 

stupid ranking?”

“Stupid ranking? Did you say stupid ranking, Kwon Byul? The ranking i important for me to get into Seoul 

University, and you say that stupid ranking?”

 

Goddamn it, did I just yell to Kwon Byul?

 

“Heol, did you yell at me just because of the ranking? If you are in the bad mood, you shouldn’t pour it to 

me! I’m your friend not your servant!”

“Who says you are my servant?”

“Me! You have to reflect! Grades are not everything, you really need to know that there are more things 

beside the grades!”

“More things? You are spending your time with Vernon and keep forgetting me, is that what you call more 

things?”

“Why are you bringing Vernon now?”

“See? You are defending Vernon now and who says you are my friend?”

“You know what? You are helpless, Kim Nara.”

 

Kwon Byul walked away from me and my hands are still shaking because I just yelled at her, pouring my 

emotion when she is not even at fault. I really know that I’m in bad mood since the morning that Kwon 

Byul is my only option to be angry at.

 

Seems like she’s right; I never treat her right as a friend but as a servant. Oh God, what did I do to my 

only friend?

 

“You really love to pick a fight.”

“Kim Mingyu! Stop appearing out of nowhere!”

He laughed, “How’s you first experience on being the second?”

“That’s not funny.”

“I’m not joking though when I said I will make you scared of me. What if I actually enroll to Seoul University 

with this excellent grades?”

“You are definitely joking then. This is just a pre-quiz, you shouldn’t be too proud about it.”

Mingyu laughed, again. Huh? What’s funny? “That’s exactly what Kwon Byul has said just now, but you 

denied it and fought with her. What’s wrong on your mind actually?”

 

This guy is verbally and mentally attacking me right now. He is right, I denied everything that Kwon Byul said

 because I don’t want to lose in an argument even with her. But how could he knows it all?

 

“Get lost, Kim Mingyu.”

“If I offer you my hand for a help, do you want to take it?”

“Stop flirting.”

“Whatever I’m not flirting. You seems helpless and I just want to help you though. Stop thinking that you

 could handle everything by yourself, Nara. You just lost your friend, more things to lose in the future.”

“Did you just -”

“Mingyu!”

 

Someone called him and it’s Nayeon. Im Nayeon, the prettiest girl here in my school (at least that’s what 

they say). I don’t know if Mingyu and Nayeon have ever in some relationship? Because people seems to ship 

them a lot, and sometimes they just stick with each other.

 

Actually they match with each other, but this Nayeon girl is sometimes stupid. I wonder if Mingyu would 

even date someone like her? Because Mingyu seems to like clever girl like me?

 

Oh man what did I say? Me? Did I want him to like me? Heol, no.

 

But Mingyu suddenly pulled me into a hug, and whispered: “Just stay like this until she disappears, please.”

“W- what are you doing?”

“She kept following me just because we kissed once. She thought that I like her, but I just unconsciously 

kissed her.”

“Of course! Girls would think that you like them if you kissed already. No wonder she’s attached 

to you!”

 

Then he released the hug, looking straight to my eyes, “Really? Girl will be attached to me if we 

kissed already? She won’t leave me?”

“I don’t know, but if she’s faithful than it’s a yes.”

 

And what happened next is really surprised me. My body couldn’t move, and everything seems hot 

now that Mingyu’s lips is on mine. “I hope you are the faithful one.” he said.

 

Did we just kiss? Why did I get kisses from people that I don’t even like? What did I do wrong to 

them? And why couldn’t I move my body while being kissed by them?

Chapter 32: wow seems like I was reading a plot for those teen-movies where everything and everyone end up happily. And I love it. Makes me feels better lmao.
Although, I was waiting a plot twist which Nara Mingyu and Wonwoo would be following different and separate life. All of them, I mean hehe
oh, KwonByul is so... lovely? I don't know how to describe her. I just love her.
So, I think it's so unique in your fic that actually mainstreams the person who cheat not the one who's cheated (well, usually the cheated one is the main and the character sufer bc of this) but look! she suffered so much though. and, oh! her head was such a mess at that time ㅠㅠ poor mingyu too -.-

Nara and Jongin my babies!! their relationship is so beautiful yet it didn't show a lot ♥ Jongin such a strong person. At least he seems to be, uh?

I kind of feel pity over Nayeon ㅠㅠ but I could conclud that she's trying to behave. Thanks, Goddess.

My cutie little piece of sweet pie Seungcheol a gentleman even with littles cameos. I love life.

I have to say that the way NaGyu get back together was really odd to me but I'm happy for them and Mingyu and his mother. And get back to what they were (personality I mean (NaGyu)
Talking about mothers, I was so flustered Nara and Jongin's mother seems so distant but that didn't she don't care afterall. I'm happy for this too.
So, that's all.
bye, author-nim
