“I’m not going to be scared. Not this time,” I told my two best friends, Han Jaehwa and Hwang Jang Mi as I walk up to his class.

I was legitimately shaking, but then I really like him. Oh, whom am I talking about? Lee Howon, who’s known as Hoya in our school.

“Dami-ah, are you spacing out again?” Jaehwa asks, as she waves her hand in front of my face. “Huh? Uh, sorry. I’m just still scared,” I told my two friends. “What? Don’t be scared. It’s only Hoya,” Jang Mi said, making it sound as if Hoya is no one.

“Just take a deep breath,” Jaehwa told me as she did it first. I took in a couple deep breaths, and then entered inside Hoya’s homeroom for the first time.

I saw him and his friends chatting happily, and I made my way over to his desk. Right when I was going to talk with him, I was pushed over and fell. I heard students laughing, and my face turned bright red.

“Oops, sorry kiddo. I didn’t see you there,” a female student voice said, as I shook my head. I was about to get up, but then I saw a hand in front of me. I looked up and saw Hoya smiling at me. “Let me help you,” he said, and with that, I took his hand.

That was the first time ever that he held my hand. I thought I was going to die.
