Mina was surprised when she entered at the gym and saw Sohye sitting on the floor while reading a book. She glanced at her watch and frowned after confirming that it is really still 5:45am and their class won't start until 7am.

"Why is she so early?" she asked herself as she started walking towards the girl.

Mina is usually the earliest since she doesn't really like being at their house so it is really surprising to see that someone has finally beat her for being the earliest.

It may sound funny but she's kind of happy to see someone and not just an empty gym for the first time.

She placed her bag down and sat just a few meters away in front of the girl. She thought Sohye would talk to her but was kind of disappointed when the girl just shot her a glance and quickly returned back to reading her book.

"Why are you early?" she tried asking.

"Woke up early."

Mina couldn't help but raised an eyebrow at Sohye who didn't even tear her gaze away from the book she's reading. She was about to ask the girl what’s wrong when she suddenly remembered how she walked out from Sohye and even ditched their supposed to be meeting yesterday.

"I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. I wasn't just feeling well." Mina apologized because she knew she was wrong anyway.

"Really?" was Sohye's short uninterested reply which quickly made Mina fumed in anger.

Here she was, trying to apologize but then all she got was an insincere 'Really?'

“Really?” Mina sarcastically repeated the girl’s response.”Really, Sohye?!”

“I was just asking if you were not really feeling well yesterday.” Sohye defended herself without giving a look to Mina.

Actually, she was really mad at Mina for not attending their meeting. She can forgive the girl for walking out from her but definitely not for making her wait for almost five hours in the library. It would somehow comfort her if the girl just informed her that she would not go to their meeting, but no, not even a single text. She couldn’t believe she even got worried for the girl.

Mina snorted, not really liking how Sohye is acting towards her. She knew she was wrong. And she has already apologized. Why is the girl still being like that?

“Won’t you even look at me?”

And with that, Sohye slowly brought her head up from the book she’s reading only to give Mina a blank stare.

That’s it! Mina is not taking any of this girl’s .

"Wow, Kim Sohye! Seriously?!" she suddenly exclaimed in anger which slightly startled Sohye."I'm so done with you acting like this! Let's just quickly finish our project later so that I don't have to deal with you anymore!"

She just watched as Sohye's surprised face turned serious. She realized she was a little bit harsh with her choice of words and was about to take them back when Sohye suddenly nodded and utter a simple,"Sure." before returning back to reading her book.

Somi almost pulled her hair out in annoyance when she peeked inside the gym and saw that their P.E instructor was already inside. She caught sight of Dani and was surprised to see that she was also looking at her. Dani look worried at first but then it was quickly replaced with a teasing smile.

She pouted.

"She's teasing me when she's the reason why I'm late. Great! Why does she even have to write a cute letter to me? Because of that, I didn't get a sleep." Somi quietly complained to herself.

She was still pouting at Dani when the girl suddenly waved her hand, signaling for her to come in. She quickly looked at their professor and a huge smile formed on her lips, seeing how the old lady was busy searching something on her bag.

She took that opportunity and quickly but carefully entered the gym. Her body was bended 100 degrees as she fast-walked towards the class, catching almost all of her classmate's attention. Her no good classmates even started teasing her by creating too much noise. Somi swore if she got caught she would kill all of them.

She was almost near to them when she suddenly heard their professor talked,"It was nice to see you, Ms. Jeon Somi. At least we will have someone who will clean the gym with her whole heart."

And just like that, everyone burst out laughing. Somi wished she could just suddenly disappear. This is beyond humiliating. Especially because Dani was also laughing at her.

It is also not even helpful that when she sat on the floor beside Sejeong, she noticed how the girl was also trying really hard to contain her laugh.

"It's okay. Just let it out." Somi sarcastically told Sejeong who only grinned at her.

She then went to search for Chungha and got even more annoyed, seeing how the girl was also laughing at her.

"You're dead." Somi just mouthed at Chungha in anger.

If Chungha has just bothered waking her up, she wouldn't be late. And she will also be saved from cleaning the gym. But of course, she knows how kind Chungha is that she purposely did this.

Their class was assigned to group themselves into four groups with six members each. Somi, Yoojung, Doyeon, Chungha, Soyeon and Jieqiong in group one. Dani, Chaeyeon, Cathy, Eunbean, Yeunjung and Sohye in group two. Sejeong, Mina, Hyeri, Haein, Chaekyung and Haeyoung in group three. And Nayoung, Siyeon, Eunwoo, Yebin, Minkyung and Kyungwon in group four.

Somi was worried at how Jieqiong was being interrogated by their other teammates of how the girl suddenly asked to be in their team and leave Nayoung. And it is not even helpful that Jieqiong was acting all bitter with her answers such as 'We don't need to be stuck with each other forever' and 'Isn't this much better? At least I'll be open for some new friends.'

"You fought with Nayoung, aren't you?" Yoojung directly asked and when she noticed how Jieqiong was trying to fake innocence, she continued,"Don't even bother lying. I saw you crying yesterday."

"Yah! Yoojung!" Somi suddenly quipped in when she noticed that Jieqiong already looked uncomfortable with their topic. She leaned in to her midget friend's ear and whispered,"Stop it or else...."

"Or else what?"

"I'll tell Doyeon."

"YAH!" Yoojung suddenly shouted, earning even the girls from the other teams’ attention."I TOLD YOU THAT WAS ONLY A JOKE!" she continued shouting nevertheless.

"What is a joke?" Doyeon curiously asked, tilting her head to look at her friend.

"That I like you!"

Yoojung's eyes were wide opened as she quickly covered . Somi, Doyeon and Jieqiong were just as shocked as her while Chungha and Soyeon were trying not to snicker.

"Y-Yes..." Yoojung shakily started."I-I just joked to Somi yesterday saying that I like you a-and...she just couldn't get over it. R-Right, Somi?"

Somi nodded almost immediately. That's the least thing she could do. She swore she just wants to save Jieqiong, she didn't know this would happen.

Somi has to prepare herself for Yoojung's wrath though. The girl wouldn't surely let this go.

Doyeon let out an awkward laugh before ruffling Yoojung's hair."You're really crazy. Why would you even joke about that?"

"I-I just--"

"Aaaaahhh..." Chungha cut off Yoojung's sentence while stretching her arms, a wide silly smile playing on her lips."I'm loving Section C already." she commented before walking away from the group.

Somi then quickly followed Chungha and wrapped an arm around her shoulder,"I don't think you're in the position to make comments like that when you can't even admit to yourself that you have already fallen in love." she whispered through her gritted teeth.

She's honestly annoyed at how her housemate was acting all so cool when she was also a er when it comes to their school's best singer

"And I don't think you're also in the position to touch me like this." Chungha retorted, removing Somi's arms on her shoulders."Except if you want to be known as my new girl."

"Ugh! You're really--"

"Oh look! Your girls are glaring at our direction."

After hearing what Chungha has said, Somi quickly looked at Dani and suddenly felt all of the hairs on her skin stand up, seeing how the girl was indeed glaring at them. She was about to flash Dani a smile when the girl abruptly turned her back at them and talked to her teammates instead.

And Somi has never felt this kind of desire to kill Chungha. She was about to choke her housemate to death when she suddenly remembered her saying 'Your girls.' She frowned but then her head automatically tilted towards Sejeong's direction and sighed seeing how busy the girl is while discussing something with her teammates.

"She was looking at us earlier though." Chungha suddenly said, catching Somi's attention."If you just looked at her first instead of Dani, you would have seen her sad puppy face."

"Yah!"

"But atleast you know who your girls are."

"Kim Chungha!"

"Ooopss. You're also not allowed to shout my name like that. They might get jealous again."

Somi sighed. She's already done with her housemate's nonsense."Seriously. Stop it."

"Sure. You still have to deal with this gym's mess and Yoojung's anger later anyway. Save your energy."

"Ugh!" Somi groaned. Chungha, of course just had to remind her of how she will suffer later.

She just wants nothing but to go home right now.

Sejeong couldn't help but frown while watching the volleyball game between group one and four. She was just planning to watch and silently cheer for group one at first but seeing how Jieqiong kept on spiking the ball towards Nayoung, she kind of feel like rooting for group four now. She's really worried for Nayoung right now especially because the girl just looks like she's very willing to accept all of the hits from Jieqiong.

Of course, Sejeong knows the reason why the two are acting like this. She was there when they got into a somewhat heated conversation. She just shrugged their fight because she thought that they could just easily talk it out, but oh boy, how wrong she was because it looks like it got even worse.

She clapped her hands when the game concluded with group one winning an expected landslide score of 25-10. Even after the game has ended, everyone's eyes were still in Jieqiong. They were, of course, confused or even surprised that the two are actually in a fight.

Sejeong stood up from the bench and walked towards her teammates, passing by a problematic Somi in the process. She just looked at the girl's slump back for a couple of seconds before deciding to approach her.

"Somi."

Somi turned around, half surprised and half delighted to see Sejeong calling for her. But she does have an idea what the girl will tell her anyway. They were the only ones who knew the reason between Jieqiong and Nayoung's fight.

'Isn't it because Jieqiong forgot to borrow notes for Nayoung?' Somi mentally asked herself before looking back at the girl infront of her.

"Yes?"

“I'm planning to talk to Nayoung later."

Somi immediately nodded. She already knew what Sejeong was trying to say. The two are groupmates in Music just like how she was also in Jieqiong's group. They could use that opportunity to talk to the two and eventually bring their friendship back. Somi was happy that she at least has Sejeong to help her. If it just only her, she would just probably let the two fix their problem by themselves.

Sejeong tried waiting if Somi would still say something or atleast open a new topic but when she realized that their conversation would just probably end here already, she decided to take the first move and bid a goobye to the girl.

But Somi's somewhat disappointed look was not what Sejeong had expected. Also, the girl has still not moved on her spot even though she had already said goodbye.

"Is there still..." Sejeong carefully started, directly looking at the girl in front of her."...something you want to say?"

Somi shook her head which just confused Sejeong even more. She was about to ask why is she still here then when the girl suddenly spoke,"I have something to give you."

Sejeong's heart instantly raced at what she heard. She would have thought that she was just daydreaming if only Somi didn't suddenly get a small box of what it seems like chocolate from who knows where it came from and handed it to her.

She just blankly looked at the extended arm in front of her before shifting her gaze towards the girl who is now having a small shy smile.

"What is that...." Sejeong asked, still surprised at what is happening."...for?"

"You gave me your chocolate yesterday, so...." Somi mumbled, scratching the back of her head."You said you don't eat chocolate but I don't believe it, so yeah....I bought this for you."

Even if Sejeong wants, she just couldn't hide her smile as she reached for the small box. She admired the beautiful packaging for awhile before shooting her seatmate a sincerely grateful look."Thank you, Somi. I'll eat this well."

Sejeong just took her time staring at the chocolate when Somi finally bid a goodbye to her. It is true that she lied when she said that she doesn't eat chocolates. Yes, she likes chocolates. But she certainly won't eat this gift from her seatmate. She's just honestly planning to display it on her room.

"Sejeong!"

She turned around and immediately chuckled, finding a nervous Mina. Mina is probably worried because she doesn't know how to play volleyball.

"It's okay, Mina. Just do your best."

"It's not that." Mina whined but her eyes instantly sparkled after notici
