"She was... supposed to be recuperating... at home..." Jaerin stuttered, unsure of how to explain to Jonghyun.

"Jaerin has been recuperating at home, but she is not doing so well so she is resting in her room. I was in her room that day when we were doing the project because she needed to lie back on the bed once in a while in order to rest," Kibum had sensed danger, and quickly walked over to where the two were talking.

Jonghyun nodded in understanding, "oh... no wond- no wait. You've been into her room?!"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Kibum asked.

Jonghyun only got angrier, "how can you go into a girl's room? The two of you are alone... in her room?"

"Oh. Ha ha... I bet that's because she slept late these few weeks... She has been dozing in class as well," Kibum quickly made an excuse, then turned to Jaerin, "isn't that right?"

"Oh... errr... yes, I'm pretty tired, so... what were you saying?" Jaerin quickly tried to change the topic, especially when Jonghyun looked confused.

"As I was saying, there was a transfer student in Ace High who tried to beat up this popular kid!" Yuri repeated herself for Jaerin, "he actually won the guy, even though the popular guy was said to have been a black belt... and not a single person won him before."

"Why are they... why do they fight?" Jaerin asked.

"Ace High is full of delinquents... They always fight," Kibum explained to her, trying not to let it be too obvious that Jaerin, who does
