Chapter 3
Unheard Melody: Listen Carefully"You really love piano, huh?" Then Sandeul immediately stops playing. He turned his head and met eyes with Jinyoung who was leaning against the door. Sandeul turned his head back to the piano and Jinyoung invited himself in. He sat next to Sandeul and put one arm on Sandeul's shoulder, revealing a box in his hand.
"What's this?" Sandeul asked, eyeing the box.
"It's for you." Jinyoung said and handed the box to Sandeul.
"It's not a joke right? A snake wouldn't come out, right?" Sandeul was scared.
"Of course not! But that would be a great idea. I'd do that next time." Jinyoung laughed.
Sandeul slowly opened the wrapper and the box. Sandeul was overwhelmed when he saw a book. "Thanks, Jinyoung. I've been wanting this for a long time! How'd you know?"
"Well, I have my ways." Jinyoung answered him, smirking.
"Wait. Why'd you give this to me?" Sandeul suddenly asked.
"You didn't think I'd forget your birthday, right?" Jinyoung got up from the chair and pats Sandeul's head before leaving the room.
Sandeul was left speechless. Why are they suddenly being nice to me? Did they take drugs or something? Sandeul was curious. He looked back at his present that Jinyoung gave and smiled to himself.
That evening, Sandeul didn't go back to his dorm immediately after class. he decided to take a walk at the school park and read his book.

"Oh, where'd you get this book anyway?" Baro asked, snatching the book from Sandeul's hand, checking the book out.
"Jinyoung gave it." Sandeul said, snatching the book back.
Baro suddenly went silent. He looks both dissapointed and confused at the same time. He got up, grabbing Sandeul's hand and brought him to some place.
"Where are we going, Sunwoo?" Sandeul twisted his hand trying to break free from Baro's strong grip but failed since Baro held Sandeul hand even tighter.
Sandeul stopped resisting when he saw something infront o him. There was a table for two and a candle in the middle. "Surprise~ Happy Birthday, Junghwan " Baro beamed, looking at Sandeul, waiting for his reaction. Sandeul was awe with this but came to reality when he remembered all the awful things baro did to him. He twisted his wrist and broke free from Baro's grasp.
"Is this a joke? I can't believe this, Sunwoo. This is too much. Can you stop pretending to be nice and just wrap this up? When will this ing stop? Can't you get tired of messing around with me?!" Sandeul started to sob. He was reminded to all the scheme Baro had done to him. From tripping him to splashing him with water and hu
