Ailee'sPOV:

 

  I was walking to the hallway when Im thinking about Wooyoung. Im thinking if I should confess to him. Well Im scared of the fact that

she will like Suzy and I don't want that to happen. I just finish my homework in History, and it's the end for the first semester. I have my

book bag and a notebook in my right hand and Im heading to my next class when I saw Ji eun and Wooyoung. 'Are they arguing again?' I

thought. I hide myself somewhere, and I listen to their conversation.

"Yes everyday but we don't talk to each other cause you're busy with you're boy."

"Bo? my boy? Did you take a wrong medicine?"

"Yah don't change the topic, Im talking about Nickhun."

"Ah, so you're jealous about him? psshh" 

"Stop smirking."

"Do (YOU), do chincha. You're really annoying me." 

 

  Does these two peolpe here is a couple? They always arguing, and I have this feeling that Ji eun like Wooyoung, and Wooyoung like her

too. Aye, I hate this. I have to do it right now. I don't want other girls to take Wooyoung away from me. Yes Im selfish and I admit it.

 

"Oh anneyeong Ailee, you seems busy huh, I have to go-"

"Aniyo Wooyoung-oppa. I have to tell you something"  I have to tell you this right now, not tomorrow nor next month but right now.

"What is it?" he ask me with his smile

"Well, you know Wooyoung since we're kindergarten we're really close-"

"And Taecyeon,Chansung,Junsu,and Junho too"  he cut my sentence and add those names.

"Ne,ne .. You know the thing that I haven't told you guys how I love you." 

"Wait, you mean us right?"  I think he's confused. 

"..." I didn't response,' No Wooyoung' I thought.

"Ailee-" I cut he's words.

 

"Saranghae, Wooyoung naneun saranghae" 

"I love you too Ailee" Chincha? did he just said he loves me too? OMO! 

"You know we love you since we met you. You're like our noona" A sister? he just sees me as a sister? an older sister? 

"Wooyoung, I think you misunderstand it" Then he look at me confusingly.

"What are you talking about?"

"I love you not you're friend or a big sister but as a lover. Joahaeyo. I like you since we we're 9th grade. I had this feeling that I don't wanna lose you, and  hate girls around you. I love you Wooyoung, please don't break my heart." Finally I told him everything inside my heart. My heart won't stop beating. He was silent for a moment and that's makes me more scared. I should be ready from his answer.

"Ailee, we are friends for a decades. I treat you as my noona and that's the only thing I can give you. Mianhae but we can't be a couple like you want to. But you know we can be stil-"

"Arata, arata. I knew it in the first place. But you know, I keep rejecting my suitors because of you cause I thought you had feelings for me too. Im stupid cause I've know you for a decades and I know you're habit that you're always sweet to girls but you know what I did? I pretend that Im blind, that I can't see your habit. Stupid right? ... kkanda(bye)." I run with tears in my eyes.

        He reject me, how funny is that, huh. Pabo, pabo. Im stupid, so stupid. I run across the hallway. I pass my classroom that I was

supposed to be right now, and right now I just have in mind is to find Junho. He's the only person who can understand me. I look all over t

he campus and finally I saw him in the dance class with ... Ji yeon? What is he doing with her? I saw them laughing to each other like

they're friends for a long time. I told Junho not to go with that chubby girl, cause rumors are so fast to spread. Junho is famous in our

school and I don't that to be ruin because of Ji yeon. Because of my mood today, I just let them be happy for now, and I have to go home. I

 

don't care if I skip school today, just this one.

 

LeeJunho'sPOV:

 

"Ok see you later hyung." I wave to my friend Min-soo. He help me with my homework in Math cause Im not really good at that subject.

      Im still in the library, arranging and putting my notebook in my book bag. I place my blue notebook inside my bag and grab the math

book. Im returning it to the librarian. I walk towards Mrs.Mun-sun and give her the book. After that, I have to go to my lunch, before that I

have to find Ailee cause I need to give her something. It's my homework in History and she have to check it if I got it right. Well we don't

have the same lunch today cause I had to do something, same thing with Chansung, Nickhun and Ji yeon. We're excuse for some

reason. I need to find her quickly, we're not allowed to walk during class time, and Im thankful that the bell hasn't bell yet. I pass the

hallway when I see Ailee and Wooyoung. Their conversation looks so suspicious, so I hid myself somewhere and listen to their

conversation.

 

"Saranghae, Wooyoung naneun saranghae" 

 

"I love you too Ailee" What is he saying? He love Ailee too? BO!? Andwae, it's impossible. This is just a dream right? I pinch myself and look at them again but I think Im wrong. This isn't a dream, it is real. 'Wooyoung ... I didn't know that you like her too' I think of myself and run. He's such a liar, he always tell me that he doesn't like Ailee.

        This is my first time crying. Yes Im crying right now like a little kid who is chasing by a stranger. I never thought that my bestfriend, my

hyung, will be the reason. I stop for a moment and lean on a wall. I hold my chest like a man and saying to myself "Kwenchana, it's fine ...

everything will be fin-.e" then I cry more. Earlier I was so happy with Ailee and right now, Im crying because of her too. I slide myself while Im

still leaning on the wall, then I ended up sitting on the floor. Then I notice something, cause Im right here on the corner of the school's dance

class. I see Ji yeon and she's dancing. She's good at dancing even if she's chubby. I draw a slight smile, and because of Ji yeon. Then I

heard a loud bang from the room and saw Ji yeon lying on the floor. I quickly enter the room trying to help her.

 

"Here."  I told her to grab my hand so she can stand up.

"J-junho-shi" I can see her eyes widened.

"Are you here earlier? did you saw everything?" 

"Neh, I totally saw everything, you're a good dancer Ji yeon." She's still lying on the floor and she start to kick in the air like a kid. 'Kyeopta' I thought. 

"Ah wae? Im not that bad person. I ust saw you dancing."

"I know, I know but it's too embarassed for me that you saw it." I give a big laugh, and hold my stomach for a second. She's very funny.

"Yah, am I someone else for you? Im your friend." I protest to her and finally she slowly take off her hands covring her face. Then I give her a hand again and she grab it and I pull her.

"Komawo" she thank me for a small thing, that's funny.

"No, I should be the one who must thank you" 

"Ehh? why you?" I didn't respponse and I pull her and hugged her that surprised her from my sudden actions.

"Ah-ah-ah ... J-j-unho-sh-shi, what are you doin'-"

"Please, don't go. I need you, even today only."

"W-w-wae, J-junho?"

"...." I don't want to talk for now, I just need a person who can understand my feelings, and I think that's Ji yeon.

 

ChoiSooyoung'sPOV:

 

"Do we really have to do this?"  I ask my teacher in GYM. Well, apparently, I think we're doing something not fun today in GYM. This is the most boring period I had. I really don't like this subject ever. 

"Yes Ms.Choi, we're doing a physical fitness fit today." He smile to me. Aye this teacher. 

"Can you do 10 push-ups?" I look at my right sie and it's Chansung. 

"10 push-ups? What does Mr.Park thinking these days. Aye I hate GYM."  he just shook he's head with his smile. I can't hold it but I smile too. Someone push me on my back,

"Yah, you and Chansung are good now?" I nod

"That's good for both of you, now do 10 push-ups." 

"Ahh wae seon-saeng-nim, we're not military students to do this." Mr.Park hit me in my forehead with his finger.

"Just do it!" 'This old man, you pissed me off everyday.' I thought. Then he walk to the others students to ask them how many push-ups they did. Me, I start to position myself on the floor, and do the prone push-up position. I positon my hands palms-down and I raise my body using my arms, and I start to lower my torso to the ground until my elbow reached form a 90 degree angle. Im about to raise my body again but I can't do it. I just let myself to lie on the floor. I saw Mr.Park walking towards me.

"How many?" I saw my classmates looking at me.

"One" I said in a low voice.

"How many?"

"I said ONE!"

"Again"

"Ah Mr.Park, I can't do this."

"You do it or you get 1/90?" If this is nothing to do with grades, I won't do it.

"Arata, arata." 

"You can call Chansung for help." I look at him and raise an eyebrow to him. Why am I so rude to my Gym teacher. 

"Ani, I can do this by myself."

 

ParkJiyeon'sPOV:

 

"Gwenchana?" I ask Junho is he's okay right now. I was so surprised when he hugged me earlier. I didn't expect that. 

"Neh, Im okay. Thanks by the way." 

"Junho-shi-"

"Just call me oppa."

"Oh.. ah neh."  blush for a bit. I want to ask him what's his problem but I don't want him to think that Im a gossiper.

"So, if you're done let's go." 

"Wait, where are you taking me? .. Im not the kind of person that simply join others trip." 

"Trust me, it will make you feel better." he nod and I grab his right hand and hold it. This is my first time holding a hands guy. That's cute ... to me.

    We skip school today, not the whole school period but the last two period we had. We fled from the guards of our school, luckily they didn't notice us. After we exit the school, we go to the bus stop and ride the bus. He ask me again, but I just smile to him. Actually Im taking him to my secret place. It's my peace place, whenever someone tease me again I just go to this place, it was back then when I still don't have friends in elementary and middle school. That is my place where no one can tease me.

 

"Thank you so much for today Ji yeon." I look at Junho who smiling to me. 

"Im grateful that I feel you better." I sigh.

 

    After a 15 minutes of waiting, we finally arrive to my place.

           

 

"I know this is too dirty or an old building, but it will make you feel better."

"But how?"

"You know, when Im still in my elementary and middle school year, when I feel lonely, when I feel so mad in the world, I always come here. I just shout in the air what's my problem, although it wouldn't answer, but atleast I release all my problem, and tell the world what it is. It may be kind stupid for you, but it's effective. My mom told me this when I was a little kid back then. I hope I can help you with your problem by telling you this place." He just stood right there with his blank face and slowly walk towards me and he kneels down. 

"Wae!? Why it has to be you! You're my friend, my hyung and you lie to me!" This is my first time seeing him crying like that.

"I trust you Wooyoung, but what you did? you lie to me. I thought I can trust you,but Im wrong, totally wrong. ('Wooyoung likes Ailee?' I thought).I love you Ailee! I told you so many times, I show you many times. But you just said that Im only your friend. But why!? What is so special about Wooyoung that you can't like me."  You know, I realize that it's more painful to see the one you like is crying because of other woman. I thought it's more painful at the first place that he can't like me, but I can feel the most painful words hearing from him. 'Don't be like this, Junho. Im here, please Im here.' I thought. I run from him and I kneel down too and I hugged him once again.

 

 

End of Chapter 16 :)
