[At Ying Ye high school]

Minho was on the way to Hyejin, Jiyoung and Jieun’s class. Jiyoung and Jieun who were waiting for Hyejin in front of their class, ran immediately towards Minho as soon as they saw him. “Minho oppa!” Jiyoung and Jieun shouted while running towards him. Jieun held Minho’s right arm and Jiyoung held Minho’s left hand.

“Let me go!” Minho said angrily while putting Jiyoung and Jieun’s hands away harshly. Jiyoung and Jieun looked so shocked and they were staring at Minho in astonishment. Minho just ignored them and walked towards that class angrily.

“What’s wrong with him?” Jieun asked while staring at Minho who was entering the class. Then, she turned her head towards Jiyoung but Jiyoung just shrugged as she also didn’t know anything about the reason why Minho acted like that.

After a few minutes later, Minho got out from the class and he walked back to Jieun and Jiyoung. Jiyoung and Jieun smiled as they saw Minho was coming back to them. “Yah! Where is Hyejin?!” Minho asked harshly.

“Hy… Hye… Hyejin?” Jieun stuttered. She was a bit afraid looking at Minho who looked very angry. “I think she doesn’t come to school yet. Maybe she’ll arrive soon. Why?”

“I warn you guys! Don’t you ever dare to do anything to Yuri again! Understand?!” he warned to Jieun and Jiyoung while pointing towards them. “And, inform my warning to Hyejin too! Even if you do just a small scratched again to Yuri, you’ll die! Understand!!!” Minho said in high voice while frowning. He was really angry as his eyes looked like were burning.

[At hospital, in Tiffany’s ward]

Hyunjoong opened the door and entered the ward. Tiffany turned her head towards the door after hearing someone was opening the door. Hyunjoong closed the door back after entering. He walked towards Tiffany’s bed. He looked calm and happy as Tiffany was already awake. But, Tiffany was nervous and her heart started beating faster. She actually felt a bit awkward to face this situation.

Hyunjoong moved the chair approaching Tiffany’s bed and then, he sat on it. He looked at Tiffany and then, he gave her a sweet smile. Tiffany replied back him with a wide smile that showing her beautiful eyes-smile.  “Hi! Are you okay now? Do you feel better?” he asked Tiffany while touching her forehead.

“Em,” Tiffany nodded while smiling.

“I’m sorry. I should have let you go home earlier,” Hyunjoong apologized while bowing his head. Then, he lifted his head up back and added, “Otherwise, you won’t be lying down on this bed.” Hyunjoong felt very guilty for what have happened to Tiffany. Because of him, Tiffany came to school even she was sick. Because of him, Tiffany’s condition became worse as he insisted her to stay at school. Because of him, she almost got into an accident. And… because of him, now, she was lying down on the bed in the hospital.

“No, you are wrong!” Tiffany exclaimed while shaking her head.

“Huh?!” Hyunjoong immediately looked at Tiffany. He didn’t understand what Tiffany meant.

“Can you imagine if you let me go home earlier? I must have fainted on my way to my apartment and there must be no one would rescue me. Am I right?” Tiffany asked Hyunjoong while smiling widely. She was trying to make Hyunjoong felt better. “So… thank you for sending me to hospital.”

Hyunjoong smiled and asked, “So, don’t you think it will be better if we become friends?”

“Friends?!” Tiffany asked back while raising her eyebrows. “It sounds very great. Okay!” she exclaimed.

“Oh! So we need to introduce ourselves once again but now as friends! Hi, I’m Kim Hyunjoong! It’s nice to meet you. Can we be friends?” Hyunjoong asked happily while reaching his hand towards Tiffany.

Tiffany took Hyunjoong and they shook hands. “Hi! It’s nice to meet you too. I’m Stephanie Hwang Miyoung but you can just call me Tiffany. From now on, we’re friends!” Then, they both grinned.

[At Hyejin, Jiyoung and Jieun’s class]

Jiyoung and Jieun were still waiting for Hyejin. The worried expression could be seen on their faces. This was not the first time they got scolded by Minho because they bothered a girl who liked Minho. Moreover, it can be assumed a common they would be scolded by Minho because of many girls before. But, this time was different, really different from usual. His warning really had something different from his old warning and they never saw Minho became angry like that.

Not too long after, they saw Hyejin who was walking towards the class. “Hyejin-ah!” Jiyoung and Jieun shouted while running towards her. They looked at Hyejin whose nose was covering by a bandage.

“Yah, what happened to your nose?!” Jiyoung said while pointing towards Hyejin’s nose. Then, Jiyoung and Jieun laughed while holding their stomach as Hyejin looked really funny.

“YAH!!! Both of you, stop laughing!” Hyejin yelled while frowning. She tapped Jiyoung and Jieun’s arms hardly. Then, Jiyoung and Jieun slowly tried their best to stop laughing even Hyejin’s face was too funny for them not to laugh at. “This is all because of that girl! Aishhh!!” Hyejin said angrily while thinking of Yuri.

“Oh, yes! Hyejin- ah!” Jieun suddenly blurted out. Hyejin immediately turned her head towards Jieun with a ‘why’ expression on her face. “Talking about that girl…” Jieun continued and then, she stopped for while, thinking a suitable explanation.

Hyejin looked at Jieun with full of curiousity. “Yah! What are you going to say?! Hurry up! You make me nervous!” Hyejin finally burst into angry as Jieun still didn’t talk even a few seconds have passed.

“It’s about Minho! Minho was looking for you just now!” Jieun immediately said after getting scolded by Hyejin. Hyejin’s expression changed from angry expression to happy expression. “Actually, I’m not sure too but Minho came to us and he warned us not to bother Yuri again.”

“Yuri?! Who is she?” Hyejin asked while frowning.

“I guess she is the girl from yesterday,” Jiyoung added.

“The girl who made my face became like this?!” Hyejin asked in unbelievable voice.

“You know, Minho looked so scary when he came to our class just now!” Jieun exclaimed.

“Oh, yes! He looked really angry at us and I swear we never saw this side of him before! It seems like that girl is really important to him!”

“Just wait and see! I won’t let her go after what she has done to me! I want to see how much courage she has to keep staying by Minho’s side,” Hyejin said to Jiyoung and Jieun while smirking.

[At hospital, Tiffany’s ward]

“Are you okay today?” doctor who had a stethoscope clinging around his neck, asked Tiffany.

“Yes,” Tiffany answered while nodding. “Doctor, can I know when I can be discharged?” Tiffany asked politely.

“You want to be discharged already?” doctor asked while smiling. “Stay here a bit longer,” he tried to make a joke.

“No ~,” Tiffany shaking her head while closing her eyes as she couldn’t stand being at hospital even a minute. “Doctor, I’m completely healthy now!” Tiffany exclaimed in confident voice.

“Why do you eagerly want to leave?” Then, the doctor looked at Hyunjoong and asked, “Don’t your boyfriend will accompany you?”

“BOYFRIEND?!” Tiffany and Hyunjoong asked in a shocked voice at the same time. Then, they looked into each other’s eyes. “W… we…aren’t,” they stuttered while shaking their head.

“I’m just her friend!” Hyunjoong immediately denied while looking at the doctor anxiously.

“Oh… really?” the doctor asked in shocked voice while raising his eyebrows. “I REALLY thought you are her boyfriend! Are you guys really not lying me?!” the doctor asked once again with a suspicious look.

“Y… yes! We are not lying!” Hyunjoong exclaimed. Truthfully, his heart started beating faster because of the question by the doctor. He took a glance at Tiffany to see her expression. Tiffany didn’t look anxious at all. Instead, she just showed her eyes-smile at ease. Hyunjoong was a bit dumbfounded with that.

“Wait a minute!” the doctor said. Then, he took Tiffany’s health report and he looked at it briefly. After that, he went to Tiffany back. “I think you are really healthy now. So, you can be discharged today.”

“Really?!” Tiffany asked in happy voice while smiling. “Thank you so much doctor!” Tiffany and Hyunjoong looked into each other’s eyes while giving a wide smile.

[At Soshi Girls, Super Boys and Yuri’s class, Ying Ye high school]

The teacher was teaching in front of the class. Everyone was giving their attention to the lesson attentively except for Yuri. Usually, she always paid her attention to class while jotting down the important notes from the lesson. But differently for today, she couldn’t write anything as her hand was still painful. So, she felt a bit boring with the lesson without writing anything. Her face was facing the window and she looked like was looking something outside but actually her mind was thinking about something else.

[Yuri’s flashback]

“What happen to your hand?” Minho asked in worried voice while starring at Yuri’s hurt hand.

“Oh… this?” she asked while showing Minho her hurt hand. “Em… I fall because of my clumsiness,” Yuri lied and then she pretended to laugh as she was trying to make her lie looked true.

“So, why did you just leave the wound like that?” Minho asked in high voice.

“Maybe it will get better soon,” Yuri replied.

“Aish! You really make me feel worried,” Minho muttered while looking straight into Yuri’s eyes. Yuri was a bit shocked. She didn’t understand what Minho meant by his words. “Wait here!” Minho added and then, he got up. Yuri’s eyes just followed Minho who was entering the kitchen. She wondered what Minho wanted to do.

After a few minutes later, he came back with a first aid box in his hand. He sat down beside Yuri and put the first aid box on the table and he opened it. “Give me your hand,” Minho said while looking for the needed things in the first aid box.

“Minho, it’s okay. I don’t need it,” Yuri replied.

Minho just ignored Yuri’s excuse and he continued looking for the needed things in the first aid box. “Give me your hand,” Minho repeated what he said.

“Minho, I’m really okay. I don’t need for this,” Yuri kept refusing.

Finally, Minho stopped what he was doing and turned his head towards Yuri. He starred at her with angry expression on his face. He was angry at her for her stubbornness. He continued starring at her without uttering any words.

Yuri’s heart started beating faster and she couldn’t resist Minho’s stare. “O… Ok,” she finally gave up while reaching her hand to Minho. Minho took her hand and started putting the medicine on the wound part.

[End of Yuri’s flashback]

Then, she looked at her bandage hand while smiling widely. ‘Was he really that worried about me?’ she thought while smiling widely. After that, she giggled by herself as she felt very happy. If there was anyone looking at her right now, they would think Yuri had gone crazy.

“Kwon Yuri!” suddenly, the teacher called for her. As Yuri was really into her happy emotion, she didn’t realize about it. As there was no reaction from Yuri, all the students looked at Yuri including Soshi Girls whose seats were the closest with Yuri’s. Yuri just looked at her bandage hand while smiling widely.

“Yuri-ah! The teacher is calling for you!” Taeyeon who sat beside Yuri, informed Yuri about the situation right now while tapping Yuri’s arm.

As expected, Yuri was shocked when suddenly Taeyeon tapped her left arm. But, she still didn’t get the meaning of the situation. Then, she looked at Taeyeon while raising one of her eyebrows. Taeyeon pointed towards the teacher who was staring at Yuri. Yuri immediately looked at the teacher and as she was shocked with the teacher’s stare, she quickly stood up and answered, “A… ah… yes!”

“Can you give me the answer for this question?” the teacher asked with a calm tone while pointing towards Mathematics’ question which was on the whiteboard.

Yuri took a look at the question and she gulped while widening her eyes as it was really out of the questions to answer that question in only a few seconds. Suddenly, Taeyeon poke Yuri’s left hand. Yuri just turned her head a bit towards Taeyeon as she didn’t want to seem too obvious. After seeing Yuri looked at her, Taeyeon pointed towards a blank paper. Yuri frowned as she didn’t understand why Taeyeon wanted to show her a blank paper and during this urgent time! But, before Yuri could turn her head towards the whiteboard back, she saw Taeyeon was writing something.
 

m(v² + 2gh) W – This is the answer!!!

Yuri immediately turned her head towards the whiteboard back and uttered the answer that was written by Taeyeon. After hearing Yuri’s answer, the teacher responded, “See me after school end. You can sit now.” Then, the teacher continued the lesson.

Yuri slowly sat down while heaving a few deep breathes as she still a bit anxious. Then, she turned her head towards Taeyeon and asked, “Is that the right answer?” Taeyeon nodded for a few times while raising her eyebrows. “So, why did the teacher still want to meet me?” Taeyeon just raised her shoulders meant that she also didn’t know the reason why the teacher wanted to meet Yuri.

[Tiffany’s P.O.V]

Hyunjoong and I are walking together side by side. We are on the way to my apartment. I already said to him that I’m okay but he insisted to send me home. He said he needed to be responsible for what have happened to me. So cool ~! Hahaha… what I’m thinking about! Aigoo! The atmosphere is really awkward! Actually, we both seem too awkward with each other to be called as friends now. We won’t be able to look into each other’s eyes. I just keep walking while turning my head to the right and I think it same goes to him. It feels like the time has stopped and everything around us has stopped moving at all. I wonder if this feeling we would feel when being with a new friend or… maybe Hyunjoong and I are different because we started our relationship with a bad one. But, this one is really driving me crazy now. Why when being next to him, my heart start beating faster?! It maybe because I li… NO!!! Don’t think nonsense thing! I already have Mike! Mike is my boyfriend. My boyfriend is Mike. Mike! Mike! Mike! I must keep that in my mind. I must come back to my sense!

[End of Tiffany’s P.O.V]

Hyunjoong decided to change this awkward atmosphere. He grasped his hands tightly while heaving a few deep breathes. “Fany-ah!” he called anxiously and his voice sounded y when he called her.

Tiffany was a bit startled when Hyunjoong called her name. She turned her head towards him. Then, suddenly, he squatted down. Tiffany was a bit surprised with Hyunjoong’s sudden action. “W… wh… why? Anything’s wrong?” she asked while bowing her head as she was looking at Hyunjoong.

Hyunjoong lifted his head up and said, “Get on my back.”

“Huh?!” Tiffany asked in a surprised voice while raising her eyebrows.

“Let me piggyback you. I know your body is still weak,” Hyunjoong replied.

“N… no… I’m really okay. Besides, didn’t you hurt you back?” Tiffany asked.

“It’s just a scratch. Don’t worry, I can carry you on my back,” Hyunjoong responded and then, he moved a bit his body to a ready position for letting Tiffany got on his back.

“But…” Tiffany still refused as she still felt worried about the wound on Hyunjoong’s back.

Hyunjoong immediately got up and asked in high voice while staring at Tiffany, “Are you still angry at me because of the incident yesterday?! Yes, I admitted that all the bad things that happened to you yesterday were because of me! Didn’t that I already said sorry?!” Then, Hyunjoong added while frowning, “So, can you tell me what you want to ask me to do until you accept my apology?”

Tiffany looked very shocked as she really didn’t expect Hyunjoong’s angry reaction. “H… Hy… Hyunjoong, that’s not what I meant!”  Tiffany stuttered in high voice as she was defending herself. “I’m worried about the wound on your back!” she added.

Hyunjoong returned to his squat position and said, “I already said that my wound is nothing, it’s just a scratch! Now, can you listen to me to show that you have accepted my apology?”

Tiffany finally gave up with Hyunjoong’s stubbornness and she slowly approached Hyunjoong. She wrapped her hands around Hyunjoong’s neck and she got on his back. Hyunjoong held Tiffany’s thighs with both of his hands and he got up. Tiffany leaned her body to the side of Hyunjoong’s back purposely as she didn’t want to burden her weight on the wound part. Hyunjoong slowly continued walking to Tiffany’s apartment while carrying her on his back.

“Just lean on comfortably. It’s really not painful anymore,” Hyunjoong said after he realized what Tiffany was doing.

“Are you sure?” Tiffany asked to make sure she could lean on the wound part without making him hurt.

“Yes!” he exclaimed in happy voice to show that he really meant it. Tiffany moved her body to a stable position, meant that she was leaning on the wound part. “OUCH!!!” Suddenly, Hyunjoong exclaimed his pain as soon as Tiffany moved her position.

“Why?! Why?!” Tiffany asked Hyunjoong in anxious voice. She assumed that the pain came from the wound. Then, she immediately leaned back to the side on Hyunjoong’s back. “Hyunjoong! I have said before!” she scolded him for his stubbornness.

Hyunjoong laughed and said, “I was just joking around!”

“What the…” Tiffany said angrily while biting her lower lips and with a frown on her face. “You just made me felt worried!” she yelled. Then, she hit Hyunjoong’s head for a few times to take her anger out on him.

“Ouch! I’m sorry! Ouch!” Hyunjoong kept exclaiming while being hit by Tiffany.

[At Soshi Girls, Super Boys and Yuri’s class, Ying Ye high school]

The school had ended. Super Boy who had finished bagging their things went to their car first. Meanwhile, Soshi Girls and Yuri were still bagging their things. Yoona whose class also ended, came to Soshi Girls and Yuri.

“Oh, Yoona! I still can’t go home. So, you just go home with Taeyeon, Sunny and Jessica, okay?” Yuri asked Yoona who was waiting for Soshi Girls and Yuri, as soon as she realized her presence.

Taeyeon who heard the conversation between Yuri and Yoona, said, “Yuri, we’ll wait for you.”

Yuri turned her head towards Taeyeon and replied, “I maybe take a long time.”

“It’s okay! We’ll still wait for you,” Jessica added.

“Ok,” Yuri answered as she finally agreed with Soshi Girls.

“Hey, can you guys tell me what was going on?” Yoona who looked clueless what was going on from just now, finally asked after seeing the conversation between Yuri and Soshi Girls had ended. “Yuri-ah! There is anything wrong?” Yoona asked Yuri while holding her arm.

“Oh, sorry! I forgot to tell you,” Yuri apologized while making a puppy face. “Actually, the teacher wants to meet me. I don’t know because of why. So, you just wait me with Taeyeon, Sunny and Jessica in the car, okay?”

“No, I’ll accompany you meeting the teacher,” Yoona refused Yuri’s suggestion.

“Yoona, it’s okay. I can go by myself. Just wait with Taeyeon, Jessica and Sunny,” Yuri replied.

“Yuri-ah!!!” Yoona said in higher voice while stomping her leg angrily.

Yuri and Soshi Girls who were bagging their things, immediately stopped what they were doing as they were startled with Yoona’s sudden anger. Their stares were focused on Yoona who looked very angry. “Why? Why? Why? Anything’s wrong?” Yuri asked Yoona while holding her shoulder as she knew Yoona was acting like this because of her.

“You have promised that you’ll never walk alone, remember?!” Yoona replied while looking straight into Yuri’s eyes with a frown on her face.

Yuri finally chuckled as she knew the reason why Yoona got mad was not a big deal actually. “That’s why you got mad at me?!” she asked in unbelievable voice. “Hey, Im Yoona! You are so immature! IM CHO DING!!!” she added while laughing.

“What do you mean by immature?! I’m worried about your safety!” Yoona said in high voice as she looked how Yuri could laugh at ease although she knew that three girls could do anything, anywhere, anytime to her.

“Yuri- ah, I think… I think… Yoona was right,” Jessica added while chuckling as she agreed with Yuri that sometimes Yoona was such Im Choding.

“Okay, okay! You follow me! Happy now?” Yuri said to Yoona while raising her eyebrows. Yoona finally gave a force smile while nodding a few times.

Out of a sudden, they heard a noise came from outside. Everyone was looking where at the noise came from. It sounded like there were no boys’ voice, just girls’ voice that were kept shouting and cheering like they have found an outrageous thing.

“What is the thing that makes a chaos like this?” Yuri asked after the noise came closer and louder. Out of the blue, it turned out, Minho was standing at the door of the class with there were many girls following him behind.

“Oh! That’s thing is Minho!” Sunny exclaimed while chuckling. Yuri was very shocked and she couldn't utter any words while staring at Minho with her jaw dropped a bit.

“You are here not because you are looking for your cousin, right?” Taeyeon teased Minho. Minho just smiled bashfully while bowing his head, meant that Taeyeon was right.

“It’s really the truth?!” Sunny asked in a shocked voice. “So, who are you looking for?” Sunny boldly asked Minho.

“Sunny-ah! You don’t know yet?” Jessica asked Sunny while raising her eyebrows. These two were just making a drama to make Minho and Yuri felt embarrassed.

“Oh, yes. Minho, since you are here because of Yuri,” Taeyeon boldly said. Yuri looked a bit embarrassed after hearing what Taeyeon said. Then, Taeyeon continued, “Can you accompany her? She needs to meet the teacher and after that, send her home safely, okay? We want to go back first.”

“Huh?” Minho was a bit shocked with Taeyeon’s order, not because he didn’t want to do but he didn’t expect it.

“But…” Yoona interrupted the conversation. She still felt uneasy actually.

“Eh~ , Yoona!” Jessica who was standing beside Yoona immediately covered Yoona’s mouth to prevent Yoona talked the rubbish thing. Because of that, Yoona was struggling with Jessica to put away Jessica’s hand as she wanted to continue talking. Nevertheless, Jessica was covering Yoona’s mouth tighter. “What do you say? You want to eat?” Jessica was pretending hearing what Yoona didn’t even say. “Ok, ok! Let’s go!” she added while pulling Yoona along with her and got out from the class.

“We’ll go first! Remember to send her home safely,” Taeyeon reminded Minho while pointing towards Yuri. Minho nodded for a few times while smiling.

Before going away, Sunny whispered to Yuri, “Aja! Aja! Hwaiting!” Yuri just smiled widely for a reply. Then, Taeyeon and Sunny walked away. Yuri and Minho’s eyes were following Taeyeon and Sunny until they disappeared from the sight.

Then, they looked into each other’s eyes. Truthfully, it was a bit awkward as Yuri really didn’t expect Minho would look for her. Minho smiled and he started the conversation to change the awkward atmosphere, “Did your hand still feel painful?”

“Ah, yes. I can still feel it,” Yuri answered awkwardly.

“I’m really sorry,” Minho said apologetically while looking at Yuri.

“Huh? Why?” Yuri asked in a shocked voice while raising her eyebrows.

“Your hand… it’s because of me, isn’t? Why didn’t you tell me that three girl who hurt you?”

“Oh… it’s okay. It’s not your fault actually, so, you don’t need to apologize,” Yuri replied while smiling.

-------------

[At Tiffany’s apartment]

Hyunjoong and Tiffany were sitting on the sofa which facing each other. They were drinking the orange juices that Tiffany had made. Actually, this was the first time for Hyunjoong for being at a girl’s house without anyone else and this was also the first time for Tiffany for welcoming a boy at her house without anyone else as in Los Angeles, Tiffany stayed with her family and her boyfriend always came visiting her with the presence of either her parents or her brother or her maids. Out of the blue, it turned out that their first time was for their hateful person.

Hyunjoong looked around as he was surveying Tiffany’s apartment. Although Tiffany stayed at her apartment alone, she had many things. Hyunjoong turned his head towards Tiffany and asked, “I’m asking this because you are a girl. Don’t you afraid staying in a big apartment alone?”

“Oh, yes, sometimes. I don’t have anyone else here. Truthfully, I have an uncle who stays in Korea but I think it must be uncomfortable for me to stay at his villa. So, I prefer to stay alone in an apartment and I can also be independent,” Tiffany explained.

“Although you stay alone, you have many things,” Hyunjoong added.

“Yes,” Tiffany replied while nodding. “Since I came from Los Angeles,” she continued.

Hyunjoong took the last sip and then, he put back the glass on the table. “Thanks for the drinks,” he said to Tiffany.

“It’s okay. Besides, you must be very tired after giving me a piggyback, right?”

“Yes,yes! You are right!” he said in earnest voice as he agreed with Tiffany. “You are really really heavy!” he joked while shaking his head to show that how much he meant it.

“What?!” Tiffany asked in a shocked voice while widening her eyes.

“No, no, no! I’m just kidding,” Hyunjoong immediately replied after seeing Tiffany’s angry stare. He still remembered how hard Tiffany hit him just now as she was angry at him after knowing that he lied to her about his pain. Instead of afraid seeing of Tiffany’s angry stare, he found that it was very cute when she got mad. “I think I better go now,” Hyunjoong said after a few moments.

“You already want to go?” Tiffany asked and her voice sounded a bit disappointed.

“Yes. Why?”

“N… Nothing,” she stuttered.

Before leaving, Hyunjoong stopped for a while in front of the door. He was hesitated either wanted to ask Tiffany or not. He thought it was very embarrassing to ask that question. Nevertheless, he mustered all his courage and asked a question to Tiffany. “Tiffany, I’m asking this question in case there is anything happen to you and you stay alone here, do you want my number?” Hyunjoong asked Tiffany as fast as he could and without any breathes and comma. Hyunjoong heaved a relief sigh after finishing what he wanted to ask.

“Huh? What did you ask?” Tiffany asked back in astonishment while frowning. “I couldn’t catch anything what you said,” she added.

Hyunjoong just made a puppy face as Tiffany’s reply. It was really hard to repeat that embarrassing question again. Tiffany just chuckled after seeing Hyunjoong’s puppy face as this was the first time she saw that side of him. She never expected he had this side since before this, they always argued but she found it was really cute.

Hyunjoong didn’t have other choice except to repeat it again. “Do you want my number?” Hyunjoong asked in clearer and slower voice than before. Tiffany looked at him and raised her eyebrows while smiling widely. She was just about to answer Hyunjoong’s question but Hyunjoong immediately interrupted her, “I’m asking that just in case there is anything happen to you and you also stay alone.”

This time, instead of answering Hyunjoong’s question, Tiffany immediately went to her room. Hyunjoong looked at Tiffany in astonishment while frowning and his eyes just followed Tiffany until she disappeared to her room. Then, Hyunjoong bowed his head as he felt a bit uneasy. ‘Did I have gone too fast?’ he thought.

Not too long after, Tiffany came back but not by herself. This time, she brought along her cell phone in her hand. She gave it to Hyunjoong while smiling bashfully. Truthfully, she really didn’t expect their relationship would be this good really quick as all these times, they always argued.

“Huh?” Hyunjoong asked in astonishment after taking Tiffany’s cell phone from her.

“Your number,” Tiffany replied bashfully and her cheeks looked like have turned red.

“O.. Oh… Okay,” Hyunjoong stuttered and then, he immediately unlocked the cell phone and pressed a few buttons. After that, he gave Tiffany’s cell phone back to her while saying, “Feel free to call me if there is anything happen.”

Tiffany took her cell phone back while smiling. She bowed her head as she didn’t want to show obviously her red cheeks. “I’ll do a missed-call later,” she replied.

“Ok. I’ll take my leave now, bye,” Hyunjoong said and then, he got out from Tiffany’s apartment in rush as he felt very nervous and his heart also was pounding.

Tiffany looked at her cell phone and she saved Hyunjoong’s number. After that, she realized that she had 50 missed-calls. She looked very shocked as she didn’t expect that she would have the missed-call this much after leaving her cell phone at home only for a day accidentally. She opened it and saw all the missed-calls were from her two best friends, Yoona and Yuri.

------------

Hyunjoong who was just getting out from Tiffany’s apartment, was walking towards the lift. He kept his right hand in the right pocket of his jean while holding his cell phone tightly. He was waiting for Tiffany’s missed-call. After for a few seconds, the door of the lift opened and he got in the lift. After the door of the lift closed, he pressed the ‘L’ button meant the lobby button.

After a few minutes later, the door of the lift opened once again as it reached at the lobby floor. He got out from lift slowly with heavy steps. He was still holding his cell phone which was in his pocket tightly. He started to feel uneasy as Tiffany still didn’t call him. He continued walking towards the exit. He kept wandering around in front of the entrance while waiting for Tiffany’s call. Then, he was a bit startled when his cell phone rang but it was not a call, it was a message. He immediately checked the message.

Can’t you stay with me for today?

By Tiffany
