Nancy's eyes continuously shifted between the clock on the classroom wall and the teacher. She was growing impatient by the passing moment.
It was the last period and to Nancy, time seemed to slow down to a crawl.   The most awaited bell rang.   In less than 5 minutes, she was waiting for the seniors at the gate with her friends.
Her eyes searched the crowd of people pouring out of the gate for a familiar red hair.
 
To those onlookers who noticed Nancy, she looked absolutely breathtaking with a soft smile playing on her lips.
She looked genuinely happy.   She was genuinely happy.   Then Nancy found her.

Everybody started walking.

I am so pathetic   I am already lucky enough I held hands with her all the way to school this morning. That thought earned her a smile.   They reached home.   "Guys, no games today." Hyebin turned and said.

"But we can go to Daisy-Ahin roo-"
"No." Hyebin cut Jooe off.
They all waked up the stairs.   Yeonwoo unnie didn't look back.                 Jooe switched off the light of the room. Its was 10 at night.   "Jooe?
