Sometimes a friendship is more valuable than the feeling of love. Because friends are always there for you even in times when love destroys you. But what if the feelings are mixed? What would you choose? You will certainly be aware of the fact, that to applaud, must require both hands instead of one. Just like for loving each other, you can't stand on an unrequited love.
And it's an absolute bitter fact.

"Aiishh it is your risk, Jiyong! After all, why should I wake you?"continued the girl.
"Huh okay okay okay. Now what should we do?" Jiyong asked.
Chaerin breathed slowly and folded her hands in front. "Let's ride the bus!" She suddenly exclaimed, pointing to a large bus stop a few meters before.

"Hahaha, that was the best moment when you twist her hand! Her expression is so-so..funny! Totally funny! Ah I should take a picture!" Jiyong laughed across.
"Hahaha, well, gee she pity. Had broken her hand, "said Chaerin began easing her laughter.

"That's good. In my house too. Can you see the brightest star from there?" Jiyong asked.
"Hmm .. yes of course. The star was seen most prominently from the others!"
"Right .. I hope our friendship as well as bright stars. So close, so beautiful .. " Jiyong whispered.
"Yeah! You will keep our friendship right? I hope not just be friends, " Chaerin said slowly.
"I'm going to keep it ofcourse. What? You mean .. "
"Be like a brother I mean. Hehe, " she said quickly, cut his words off. She doesn't want their conversation becoming awkward.

"Hey Chaerin! Accept it! " Jiyong throws something at the girl who sat across from him at the school bus.
Chaerin caught and found a silver colored metal bracelet inscribed Chicago, in plastic bags. "Chicago? Who is .. "

"You're kidding? It's cool! Thanks so much.. " Chaerin unwrapping it and wear bracelets that look solid across her wrist.

"What the heck?? I am not deaf! " Chaerin yelled. She took her eyes off the comic and looked annoyed towards Jiyong.
"What's the matter? I talked to you but you just reply 'Hn' 'Hn' 'Hn' and so on!" Jiyong shouted, didn't want to lose.
"It's up to me, how I want to answer!"
Jiyong sighed and got up from his seat. "Huh. I'm going to Taeyang. I want to talk to him, " he said.
"As well as visiting Sandara you mean?" Chaerin asked cynical.
"Whatever!" Next second Jiyong already left her alone in the class.
"Hhhh .. what have I done?? You dumb Chaerin! " she cried when Jiyong was not there.

Jiyong entered the classroom just as Taeyang and Dara were deep in conversation. "Sorry to interrupt your conversation!" he said.
"It's alright. Oh, hey what's up bro?" Taeyang greeted him.
"I just want to say I'll go home with you, don't leave me, kay?" Jiyong said.
"Ah yup, of course. That's it? Why don't you tell me via message? "
" Hmm why? I can't go to your classroom?"
