(attempts at it again) sherina: n-no! ... (keeping it away from taemin's reach) taemin: (pause) .... dont tell me ................... you already have a boyfriend, dont you?! sherina: (surprised) what? ... NO! ... that's got nothing to do with this!  taemin: oh really? ... then show it to me! (quickly snatches the phone) sherina: !!!!   * when taemin was about to look at the phone's screen ... sherina immediately swated his hand causing him to let go of the phone and dropping it on the floor ... pretty hard ...   taemin: YA! ... what are you doing? ... are you crazy!? sherina: why are so stubborn about looking at it?! ...   * taemin was about to pick up the phone when sherina went ahead and stepped on it with all her might,  completely cracking the screen ...   taemin: (even more surprised) !!!!!!!!! sherina: (picks the broken phone up and bags it quickly) ... taemin: y-you--   * while taemin was processing what had just happened, sherina reached inside the bag and took out about 3 pages of paper that was folded in there ... as quickly as she took it out, she folded them into a smaller size and stuffed them in her jeans' back pocket ....   taemin: you're really crazy, aren't you!? ... why did you have to go and do that!? ... sherina: (sighs) i-its alright ... cellphones are really not that much of use to me ...  taemin: b-but ... sherina: its no big deal ... im sorry ... i-its just ... n-nevermind ... taemin: (goes closer to sherina) sherina: (startled) !! taemin: you look like you're hiding something ...  sherina: im not hiding anything! taemin: then why'd you have to go that extent? ... you didn't have to destroy your phone over "nothing" ... geeeez ...  sherina: (looks down - a bit sad) ... i-i just dont want to think about it at the moment ... let alone, talk about it ...  taemin: (silenced) ...  sherina: (in deep thought)   *suddenly ... taemin's cellphone rang ...   taemin: (hesitates but picks it up) onew: hello? ... taemin? taemin: o-onew hyung! ... w-what's up? onew: ya! ... you postponed your schedules today?! ... and even cancelled one! ...  taemin: o-oh ... y-yes... well... manager hyung said it was ok when i asked ... onew: oooooh ...
