SIX

The contest was a little awkward with just the two of us, but it was also fun. We did win and Kris kept his promise. He treated me. Since Sehun and I were out for the contest, we needed to finish the school works we missed for a day. It was winter season so it’s pretty cold, and it that I forgot my sweater. I kept on rubbing my palms to keep myself warm while doing one of the missed school works, and then I suddenly felt a jacket draped on my shoulders. I looked up to see Sehun passed by and stood by our classroom’s door (like a security guard or something), pretending he wasn’t the one who put the jacket around me.

Since graduation was fast-approaching, it’s getting busier and there were not much classes. I spotted Seulgi napping on the floor so I lay beside her and decided to take a nap as well. I was not yet in a deep slumber to not know that Sehun, yet again, put a jacket on me. I just kept on pretending to be asleep.

One morning, everyone was busy with the graduation photo pictorial. Out of the blue, Xiumin wanted to talk to me.

He sighed and shook his head. “I’m w
