"Hey!"

He said.He sounded happy;another kind of excitement.

"Uh..H-hi."

I replied as I fastened my pace,avoiding eye contact with him.He walked side by side with me as he continued to speak.

"I guess you heard about it already?"

"Heard about what?"

"That I like you?"

That was fast.Direct.Straightforward.He wanted to get right to the point.I didn't answer,instead tried to move even quicker.

"Alot."

Positively.He is speaking the truth.I'm never good at telling whether someone is lying or speaking the truth.Way too gullible.

"Okay...Bye."

Hani just go.Walk off.But that disappointment in his eyes sort of caught my attention.Made me stay.

"You don't believe?"

He questioned again.This time the seriousness burnt in his brown eyes.Oh god.Find some excuse.

"I don't don't believe you,it's just,uncommon at 13.You know we are 13.We don't love at 13."

"But I do like you.Really."

"Can't we even be friends?"

Friends.Okay friends seems okay.

"Okay friends."

How would I even manage to become friends with Kwon Jiyong.Why him?Why me?Why am I so damn positive I wouldn't fall in love at 13.
