‘Can someone tell me again why we need to squeeze on the bus?’ YoungJae complained, trying to keep from getting banged into.

‘It’s because Yongguk Hyung failed his driving test again?’ Daehyun remarked. *Oh? Yongguk Oppa failed his driving test before.* You thought, tapping your chin.

‘Yahhh, it’s because it’s peak hour and there are lots of people.’ Yongguk defended himself. *Do they have to remind me every time we take public transport?’* Yongguk thought, making a face. You patted Yongguk. ‘Oppa, it’s okay, you will get your license one day.’ Yongguk nodded and smiled.
