I slumped my petite body on my chair. I have been awfully exhausted due to the fact that I couldn’t sleep last night. Pointless thoughts filled my head as I tried my best to sleep last night, only to fail. I let out a heavy sigh. I just remembered, today’s schedule was one of my worsts and I think, for the first time in years, I’m going to sleep out on each and every class.

And I successfully did.

I felt a light tap on my shoulder and I looked up to see a worried Yuri looking down on me. I smiled slightly, “Hey, good morning…”

Yuri took the empty seat beside me and looked at me sadly, “It’s not morning anymore Tae… You slept all throughout the day, good thing the professors didn’t mind…”

Yuri sighed again and I stretched my body a bit more and positioned myself in a comfortable one.

“Sorry, I just wasn’t able to sleep properly last night --- or rather I wasn’t able to sleep last night”

Yuri furrowed her eyebrows, “Why? Bad dreams?”

I shook my head slightly, “Thoughts…”

“Thoughts about what? Care to share?”

Yuri gave me that puppy look and I just chuckled at her slightly, “Nah, I’d like to keep this one to myself…”

Yuri pouted and I just chuckled at her again. I felt fine by the minute, but then I saw a familiar figure, three seats away from me, sleeping. Her head rested on her arm, which acted like a pillow, and having light snores emitted from her. Yuri stopped her giggling as she tried to trace to where I was looking at

“Hmm, funny, she’s been sleeping the whole time too…”

I raised a brow, “Really?” Yuri nodded meekly, “Yeah… Also, when she came inside the room earlier, it seemed like there was no energy left from her…”

“Oh…” Was the only reply I could think of… I looked at the sleeping figure once more and let out a sigh. I shouldn’t assume things, maybe she was tired because of her father’s fault again, and nevertheless, I was still human.

I took the courage and stood up from my seat, still feeling numb on my legs but managed to stand up straight. Yuri gave me a look and I just nodded. Yuri stood up while I slung my bag on my right shoulder and started walking towards her direction, only to be halted by a sudden appearance of a familiar girl.

She bowed at us slightly and smiled and we returned her humble gesture. She pointed at Tiffany and I could just smile at her, “Go ahead…”

She continued to smile, “Thank you…” I walked away from them with a heavy heart. I swear, with every step I took, the harder it became for me to breathe. Yuri trailed behind me and I could feel her stare was boring a hole in me; I stopped my tracks and looked at her, “Would you like to play for a bit?”

Yuri smiled at me, “I think that’s a good idea!” I chuckled at her, “Winner gets to have pizza from the loser!”

***

I watched Yuri gobble up the whole pizza and it didn’t surprise me anymore; rather, I was disgusted by the sight. Like seriously, what kind of a girl would stuff pizzas in their mouth so shamelessly in public? I let out a chortle and Yuri looked at me irritatingly

She tried her best to speak but failed, “Yah, if you wanted to talk, just finish whatever’s in your mouth, you dum-dum!”

Yuri swallowed hard and drank water, “You’re just jealous because you lost every game!”

I scoffed at her, “I let you won all of the games, you idiot! I couldn’t help but laugh at your competitive face”

Yuri scrunched up her nose and handed me a pizza, “Here… I’m still going to be civil about this…”

I giggled at her, “Oh, thank you! You’re so kind!”

Yuri chuckled and ruffled my hair lightly, “Kim Taeyeon, you are such a kid…”

I tried my best to smile at her wholeheartedly, “Says the one who has Pororo printed on their blankets!”

“YAH!” I laughed really hard on that one. Her face was really priceless and I just couldn’t help but laugh at her reaction. We continued to eat gleefully, seems like at the moment, Yuri was able to take that certain person off of my mind and I was thankful for that.

We parted our ways as soon as we exited the restaurant. Yuri wanted to take me home, but her mom needs her more than I do. I know it’s selfish but I just hoped her mom didn’t call her, because once I’m alone, my head would be filled of thoughts about Tiffany, and I hated myself a bit more…

After walking two blocks of street, I finally arrived in front of my house. I heaved a sigh; I looked for my key inside my bag when suddenly

“Taeyeon-sshi!” I turned around to see who was calling and saw a petite girl walking towards me. I bowed at her slightly and she smiled

“Sunny-sshi, what are you doing here? And how did you find me?”

Sunny chuckled, “Well, that’s a long story… But say, aren’t you two going to talk?”

I raised a brow, “Uhh, who?” Sunny smiled slightly, “Tiffany. Tiffany Hwang… No plans? Anything?”

I smiled bitterly, “She has a girlfriend, and I don’t think I wanted to meddle anymore… Besides, I think she bought me for fun, which I think is definitely true. I wish she could’ve been more honest about her intentions, I feel bad for her girlfriend…”

“Oh… Is that what you really think?” I nodded at her, “Hmm, well then… Would you like to take revenge?”

I creased my forehead, “What?”

Sunny shrugged, “I don’t know… I mean, if I was in your shoes and somebody pulled a stunt like that on me, I would seriously get back on them…”

I thought a lot about it, “It’s not like you’re going to slap her or do something crazy in public Taeyeon-sshi…”

“Then what do you have in mind?” Sunny smiled at me but I could feel that whatever it is she’s going to say, I think I’m going to regret it for the rest of my life…

“Something civil…”

I pulled down the hem of my dress, trying to cover myself a little more. Apparently, Sunny made me dress something so short that I think my cheeks are showing. It was a black dress which hugged my petite body, rather too well with a heavy makeup to match with the outfit.

Sunny giggled at me, “Yah! Stop doing that, you look so awkward pulling your dress down”

“I can’t help it! It feels like this dress isn’t covering much of my private parts! Where are we going anyway?”

Sunny shrugged nonchalantly, “To where she is…”

I furrowed my eyebrows, “And that is where, to be exact?”

Sunny smirked, “To the club…” I looked at her with mouth agape. I knew it! I knew I was going to regret it! God!

I think Sunny saw how tensed I was, so she put a hand on my shoulder, “Don’t worry; I won’t let anyth
