Get me out of here.

Get me out of here.

Get me out of here.

Hyejeong repeated this phrase, not unlike a mantra, in her mind repeatedly as their car pulled up at a restaurant.

“Do we really have to meet them?” Hyejeong whined, as she and Seolhyun got out of the car, one decidedly more excited than the other.

“Of course we have to!” Seolhyun replied, ignoring the unwillingness in Hyejeong’s voice and demeanour. “We agreed to have lunch with them, and then go to the amusement park later, right?”

“Sure we did,” Hyejeong grumbled in a low voice, walking stiffly (in fear) behind Seolhyun. Those creeps! How on earth did they have Seolhyun as a friend?

“Hey,” Seolhyun stopped and turned around, her voice dropping to a caring whisper. “You sound like you don’t want to meet them or something.”

Yeah, no .

“Maybe,” Hyejeong replied flippantly, as she marched on ahead into the restaurant on her own, leaving Seolhyun behind, confused.

 

Yuna and Mina were late. They had agreed to meet at twelve exactly, but it was already half past and there was no sign of them at all, and it was three quarters past before the hastily slid into the booth opposite them, hair dishevelled, and makeup slightly slipping on Mina’s face.

“Hey,” they chorused in unison, trying their best to conceal the fact that they were in just slightly too compromising a state.

“Whatever happened to your hair?” Seolhyun teased, grinning, as both Mina and Yuna simultaneously started smoothing their sweat-drenched, messy locks.

“We were…cleaning,” Yuna replied feebly, earning a vicious smack from the cute girl seated beside her.

“Come up with something better, you dimwit!” Mina hissed violently, glaring daggers at Yuna.

“Why did you keep silent then, smartass?” Yuna bit back, annoyed.

“Cleaning each other up, eh?” Hyejeong went in for the kill, high-fiving Seolhyun, as both of them started chortling.

Only to be immediately shut up by a savage Kwon Mina. “My my, you must be really experienced in cleaning Seolhyun here up, eh, Hyejeong unnie? You took home a complete stranger from the bar and cleaned her up real well, unnie.”

 

“I told you they’re scary,” Hyejeong whispered into Seolhyun’s shoulder, as she watched a Yuna who was watching them intently (read: creepily), and a Mina who was chomping down the last remainder of her meal. “How do they eat so fast? And why does Yuna stare at us like that?”

“How’s that creepy, Hyejeong?” Seolhyun replied, daintily working her way through her own meal. Both her and Hyejeong weren’t even half done, which puts Yuna and Mina’s speed into perspective. “They’re just hungry, that’s all. Especially considering all the ing—HEY!” Seolhyun explained, before was clamped shut by Yuna’s invading hand.

“She means that we always have a big appetite, that’s all,” Yuna explained sweetly, her eyes glaring daggers at Seolhyun. “We are perfectly respectable people that definitely don’t engage in ual before having our first official meeting with our best friend’s girlfriend, eh, Seolhyun?”

“Of…of course, Yuna,” Seolhyun replied, turning her focus back to her food.

 

“What do you see in our little Seolhyun over here?” Mina asked patronisingly, as they walked along the street. They had just left the diner where they had had lunch, and were now making their way over to the amusement park. “Considering that she is ugly, has a selfish personality, and is a jerk to her friends all the time?”

Seolhyun stopped and smacked Mina viciously on the back, to which Mina actually reeled forward a few steps, staggering. “Owww,” Mina replied, hurt, “You could use a little less force next time, maybe?”

“I like Seolhyun here, not because she’s special, because she’s beautiful, or because she’s smart,” Hyejeong philosophically answered. “I don’t know why I like Seolhyun as much as I do, but I do. Simply put, she makes me feels things that I have never felt before, she gives me experiences I’ve never experienced before, and she loves me like I’ve never been loved before.”

Mina put her hands to her neck and strangled herself, faking choking due to how cheesy Hyejeong’s answer/confession was.

Yuna started attacking Mina, annoyed that Mina’s confession to her wasn’t half as sweet. (In fact, come to think of it, did they ever confess to each other? No. They probably got together after ing each other or something like that.)

And Seolhyun looked pissed as Hyejeong just insinuated that she was neither special, beautiful nor intelligent.

 

They were fully-grown teenagers/adults, and they were playing bumper cars like absolute children, taking every chance to knock the living daylights out of each other.

As Seolhyun and Hyejeong were preparing a vicious attack on Yunaring’s car, they heard a cackle coming from their target, followed by a teasing yell from the other side.

“Hey Hyejeong! Since you love your girlfriend so much, you won’t have a problem with some of her habits, right?” Mina yelled, a devious grin forming on her face, Seolhyun growing paler by the second.

“Ignore them,” Seolhyun responded quietly, to which Hyejeong completely ignored.

“Bring it on!” Hyejeong yelled back in response.

“Did you know that Hyejeong is a messy freak? She spills stuff everywhere,

Chapter 28: I really hope they will end up together even though they probably won't! To be able to spent one last day with Hyejeong would probably make Seolhyun long for her more. In Seolhyun's case ,she probably just don't want to move on from Hyejeong since she brought her out of 'darkness'.
Looking forward to your next update!

Chapter 28: Omg...dem feels!! Finally Seolhyun knows, what Hyejeong was trying to do. She doesn't hate her, it was just for her own good. And i think it's better to make some last great memories together and seperate rather than staying in ignorance not knowing why this all is suddenly happening. I still hope that Hyejeong can stay somehow or Seolhyun can come with her after finishing school...i just want everyone to be happy, is it too much to ask for?? :(

Chapter 27: Ohh, good luck tmw then authronim. And i wish you a happy birthday :)
And about the story...dem feels authornim...dem feels!! How they have different perspectives of how to lessen the pain is so sad to look at :(
And please do make a sequel. It'll be great not to see a suiciding seolhyun and somehow them both ending up happy. They don't even have to be together to be happy. I just don't want anyone to die and the other to carry this burden forever!! :((

Oh my, just when I thought life couldn't get more heartbreaking for seoljeong. I swear Hyejeong just needs to accept her faults and save Seolhyun, there's no later love when you have seoljeong. Oh my that ending, I dare not to imagine what made Hyejeong running so fast. But that cliffhanger, I can't even wait for the next chapter! YES AUTHOR PLEASE A SEQUEL! THIS STORY DESERVES ONE! ALSO, NEEDS ONE! Especially with that ending O_O Must wait for next chapter! Please update soon please author!

Chapter 27: It's the end... *snob snob*

I really like this fanfic. How you put those emotions on your characters tho... O.O

And Seolhyun/Hyejeong... well how they try to be together despite the fact that the society won't accept them because of their student/teacher position... I really like the fact that they will do everything to support each other or to make themselves happy ^^
Seeing Seolhyun hurts break my heart..

Anyway it was really good! Thank you <3
And i will follow you lol
