That soccer incident bought a drastic change in their relationship. D.O became so damn close with Kai, becoming part of their group and their friendship bought peace in Maple. But D.O didn’t forget about his first friends he ever made. His friendship with Kai made him stop bulling the commoners, which more or less made them also part of their group.

It was a pleasant Saturday evening when D.O stepped out of a flower shop, holding onto a spray of baby breath, and getting into his Lamborghini Reventon. Reaching his destination, he gets out putting on his long black coat over his all black Gucci suit. He made his way into the building and got into the lift, pressing the number 24. Getting out, he entered into a room, full of sideboard with different ceramic pots placed in them. He stopped in front of one of the ceramic pots and placed down his bouquet of baby breath. You guessed it, it was a charnel house.

“How are you mom.??”

***

He was standing in front of a small gate leading towards a vast house. To be specific, it was an orphanage. It was the same orphanage his moms grow at. The only place in remembrance of his mom.

When he entered the place, the first thing he saw was a group of kids, playing hide and seek in the huge garden which made a small smile made its way onto his lips. He was looking at the kid’s play, when suddenly his eyes landed on a girl, a grown up girl, playing along with them.

“Excuse me, who is she..??” he asked one of the staff passing by.

“Oh, she is a volunteer. She comes here every weekend and brings lots of snacks for the kids. She is so sweet. We don’t really know her name, but kids like to call her angel.”

Nodding his head, D.O slowly walked towards the girl. Her frame looks somewhat familiar and he just can’t point out whom. The girl turned around when he slowly taped on her shoulder, making him freeze. The one standing in front of his is not the one he knows. She looks totally different; she was wearing a knee length floral dress, with a pair of ballerina shoes. Her hair was loose, letting it sway along with the breeze. She didn’t have any heavy makeup like she always have, instead she looked so natural, with only a tiny hint of lip gloss on her lips. She was breathtakingly beautiful.

“What are you doing here..?” and that’s when he gets out of his daze.

“Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that Question, Miss Byun Sana..??”

***

Both of them sit down on a bench under a tree in the garden of the orphanage. Sana was there, fidgeting her fingers, avoiding D.O stares. He could only chuckle, never in his wildest dream had he thought he would see Sana like this.

“Ya..don’t..don’t tell anyone..got it. ?”

“About what..??” D.O bent a bit forward, trying to take a peek at her face. He smiled a bit when she successfully hided away with her fringes.

“You know..That you saw me here, don’t tell to anyone. Not even Kai. It’s a secret.”

“Sure, I am not going to tell anyone.”

“What..?? That easy..?”

“Why..?? You want it to be hard..?? OK then, I will think about it.”

“Nononono..please don’t tell anyone please..?!!” and who would have thought the Byun Sana can also do aegyo

“Fine Fine, stop doing that weird faces. I am not going to tell anyone.”

Sana replied with a wide smile to which D.O may or may not felt something.

They sat there in silence for a while until Sana spoke.

“So..what are you doing here..?? Mr. Do Kyungsoo??”

He chuckled when she copied the way he called her.

“Well, this is the place where my mom grew up.”

“Really, then why didn’t you bring your mom along?”

“I wish I could. But she is no more. This is the only place that reminds me of her.”

Sana didn’t expect that. Sensing her awkwardness, D.O replied back with a tiny smile.

“And this is my secret which you shouldn’t tell anyone. Deal..??”

And Sana let out a breathy laugh. “Deal"

Chanyeol walked out of the locker room, clad in a swim ware, ready to jump into the school swimming pool. He just wanted to have some time to relax from all the happening in his life. When he reached there, he found the whole place empty, except for the one who was swimming aggressively. It took him a while to see who it was. It was Chen, looks like he is not going to stop any time soon. He smirked, thinking of an idea to piss the poor boy but he snapped out when he saw Chen struggling. What happened to him.? He was all fine till now.? He got panicked when he saw Chen drowning to the bottom of the pool. Chanyeol didn’t think twice before jumping into the waters and dragged Chen back to the floor. By that time, Chen was already unconscious, living him no other option but carry him to the infirmary.

He laid Chen onto a bed when the school nurse came to check on him.

“What happened to him..?”

“Looks like he hasn’t been eating well. He also has lot of deficiencies. His body couldn’t take all the stress he was forcing on so he fainted in the middle of swimming. He just needs to take some rest. He will wake up after a while. Maybe you should give some food to him. Then, I will leave you guys.”

Meanwhile Lay was in the library, again with a pile of books around him. He looked up when he heard a loud bang, only to find Yoona plopping down in front of him.

“gooood for you..what are you doing unicorn..?” Yonna spoke, leaning forward, resting her head on her right palm.

“What do you want.?? He replayed a bit annoyed, but still in respectful way.

“Tsk..I was being nice to you all this while because we have lot of mutual friends. But this is how you speak to me..?? Rude..Anyway I came to ask you some help. Help me with the upcoming exams. My dad promised me trip to Paris..So help me.”

“Why should I..?”

“Because you have to..”

“But I don’t want to..” Taking his books, Lay stands up and walks out of the place. Did he just do that..?

Yoona is not gonna give up that easy. She tagged behind, like a lost puppy.

“Please, please, please..?!!”

“What is wrong with you.?? Why are..”

He couldn’t even finish his sentence when Yoona clumsily stepped on a wrong step, falling forward. Throwing his books away, Lay immediately wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her towards his body. All this happened in just few seconds and he didn’t know how they ended up in this position. Lay was firmly holding her waist while Yoona’s hands were on his torso and their lips were merely a meter away. She doesn’t know when but Lays glasses are gone and he looks so damn fine. Since when did this nerdy became so handsome ?? Yoona’s hair was all on her face which she swept away with her slender fingers. Her eyes were sparkly, her tiny button nose, and those pink lips. Why didn’t he realize how beautiful she is..?? they didn’t know how long they stood there, but Lay was the first to break apart. He silently took all the scattered books and left, living behind Yoona who simply collapsed holding onto her chest. Why is her heart beating so hard? She never ever felt like that, not even when she was with her ex’s. but she was sure of one thing. Lay was someone special and she needs to conform it.It was almost an hour later when Chen woke up from his deep sleep.

"Ya you crazy guy..what were you thinking swimming so belligerently..you could have died if I wasn’t there.”

"Then you should have let me die, why did you even save me.”

“What..?”
“I said you could have let me die. Isn’t that what you and the beagle friend of yours want? Do you even know how hard it is for me? Do you know how it feels to be an orphan? Do you know how hard was it for me to take so many part time jobs to survive? How hard it was for me to get a scholarship in such a reputed institute? Do you even know the meaning of the word ‘hard’? Why would you? You were born with a platinum spoon in your mouth; all you know is bully people like me. Because of you guys, I failed in the math test. I was even getting fewer marks in all the tests for the past few weeks. At this rate, I will lose my scholarship. I am sure you will love seeing me begging on the roads, giving up on my dreams. Who is going to be responsible for that..?? You.?? Or your friend..?? what did I do to you..ha..why are you doing this to me ..why..why…WHY..??” the ever so stubborn Chen is breaking down in front of him and Chanyeol didn’t know what to do.

All his confession somehow made him guilty, guilty for being the reason of all the hardship the poor boy was facing. He bent forward, hugging the crying boy, giving him a shoulder to let all his tears out. Chanyeol snapped out when he heard someone clearing his throat. It was Baekhyun, with huge headphones around his neck, onto a lollipop.

“I didn’t know you guys were a thing, is that why you are so sad.?? Because you have to part ways with your soul mate..??”

“Shut up Baek..Come and help me, he is crying like hell and I don’t know how to console him.”

“He is not crying anymore. Looks like he fainted.”

“. Not again.”

Aegyo : acting cute.
