Be There.
I Love You."Chaerin, why are you so quiet?" Chaerin's mother asked her at breakfast.
"It's nothing." Chaerin said quietly, picking at her food.
"Is it boy problems?" Her sister, Harin, butted in.
Chaerin heaved out a sigh. "Yes, yes it's boy problems."
"What is it? What's going on between you and Jiyong?" Concern traced Mrs. Lee's voice.
"I . . . I don't want to talk about it." Chaerin said.
"Did you guys fight?" Harin asked.
"I don't know if we fought or not. It was confusing." Chaerin answered.
"What was the fight about?" Mrs. Lee asked.
"The fight was about me." Chaerin said.
Her mother and sister gaped at her.
"Yeah . . . I think you and Jiyong should work that out by yourselves." Mrs. Lee narrowed her eyes.

"What about Jiyong?" Gong Minzy leans over to Chaerin, ignoring what their math teacher was saying.
"What about Jiyong?" Chaerin scrunched up her face in disgust.
"Well, you were completely ignoring him this morning and when he pulled you, you pushed him away. What's up with that?" Minzy raised her eyebrows.
"It's complicated." Chaerin reasoned.
"I like complicated things." Minzy argued.
"Ask Bom." Chaerin said flatly.
"Why would I ask Bom? Is she the one dating Jiyong? Is she the one fighting with Jiyong?" Minzy asked.
"I'll tell you la-" Chaerin was cut off by their teacher.
"Lee and Gong, is there something important you'd like to tell the class?" Ms. Oh asked.
"Um, we were discussing the importance of math." Chaerin said, trying to look innocent.<
