That night, Suzy cuddled the two stuffed toys.

In the morning, I will let you two go.

Suzy was shocked when she saw Jieun outside her house.

Didn't she hear anything from Myungsoo?

But her question was answered when Jieun saw her and kept a serious face.

"Why did you do that?"

Suzy was shocked when Jieun came dashing and shouting at her.

"Don't you like him? Then, what about in the prom? You were so sweet! Was that fake?"

Suzy looked at her sadly.

"Is.... Isn't there really any chance for Myungsoo?" Jieun begged her.

It has been weeks since the last time Myungsoo and Suzy talked to each other.

I can't hold onto this any longer. Suzy thought.

"Myungsoo, annyeong."

How can I win a battle of two when one already gave up?

You can't.

I thought so. Then his phone beeped again.

The only thing you could do is rest first, and encourage the other to put up the fight once again.

Myungsoo sighed and decided to put the phone back in his pocket. It has been days since he started going home late. He stayed in Wooyoung's house or his other classmates. He did everything just to avoid Suzy.

However, he needed to clean the house so he decided to go home early. He was on his way home when Jieun texted. Moreover, he found Suzy waiting outside his house despite the weather.

Is this why she has colds? Myungsoo looked at her with pity from afar. She was starting to doze off. But then, she will rub her palms together.
