The following day at school, things were a little off. I expected Minho hyung to pick me up again (Because the four of us already agreed to morning car pools with Minho and Kibum taking turns in driving) but when I called him, he said that he was sorry because he and Kibum can't come on time. He mumbled something about waking up late or something. So I called Jinki hyung and asked him to fetch me. 
  I was waiting at the door of our classroom, expecting Kibum to come. He owes me a lot of explanation for last night. I am not asking for anything in return, a simple greeting or maybe a hug would suffice.    But the bell rang and there was still no sign of him.    Then came lunch, I deliberately came in late to make them worry a little bit but when I reached the table, all I got was Minho and Jinki caught up with some game on the former's iPhone and a sleeping Kibum. Wow, I can really feel the love.   I cleared my throat to catch their attention. The eldest and the alien noticed me, finally, and asked, "Where have you been?"   "Bathroom" I took off my gaze from them and turned to Kibum. He's still not moving. Aish, so this is how it goes huh? I slammed my bag down on the table and sat next to Kibum. I forced my shoulder to hit his arm and he jolted from the contact.   He turned to me with a frown. ''Yah. Didn't someone teach that what you did is just plain rude?"   I took out a sandwich from my bag then cocked a brow and met his eyes. "Oh really now? I think you're the one who's rude Kibum."   "What did I do?"   "And you have the guts to forget about last night." I scoffed and shook my head. I shoved the sandwich back in my bag. Suddenly, I'm not that hungry anymore.   He was just staring at me with his brows meeting at the center. From the corner of my eye, I saw Jinki whisper something to Minho.    Minho grabbed his bag and stood up. Jinki hyung did the same too. "We're finished eating. I'll just drop Jinki hyung off at the library before the bell rings. Uhm...S-see you."   "Be careful." Jinki hyung managed to say as Minho pulled him by the wrist. It seems as if he's warning us to keep it cool.   I sighed loudly. "Well?"   "I-I'm sorry. It's just-"   "Sorry? Is that all you can ever say?"   "What do you want me to say?"   "I demand an explanation!"   "Why do I have to explain anything to you??"  He shouted. A few students moved away from us.   Did he really just ask that? "That's a stupid question Kibum! Can't you see that I care for you??" I closed my mouth to stop myself from saying more. Did I just reveal myself there? I saw a few girls whispering to each other at one table near us. Quick, think of something to cover it up! You don't want any rumors now, do you? "Besides, I think I failed the exams a while ago! I didn't have anything to write on my paper! If you only showed up last night then-"   Kibum clenched his jaw, clearly getting mad. "And you're blaming me? Is it my fault that you didn't study well? You've got a big brother for pete's sake! You could've asked him!"   Well, that's a pathetic excuse you just made up, Lee Taemin. Think of something else...."But you promised me! That was something you can do for me! I've always been loyal to you! I kept up with your fits and mood swings. I even took over the role of Minho hyung as a slave for you!"   Kibum widened his eyes in shock and his jaw dropped. "What the did you just say?" he clenched his fist tight. "I didn't ask you to do those things for me."   "But you didn't stop me either." I stood up and got my bag. "You know what, I'm done with this."   "Done with what?" he asked.    "I'm not hanging out with you again. You shouldn't have saved me that day." Damn it Taemin, you shouldn't have said that.   He swallowed and his lips quivered. "You regret meeting me?" his voice was soun
