NARRATOR’s POV
Yoochun, Junsu and Jaejoong sat down as Changmin’s butler motioned them to wait in the living room.
“Aish, that guy! Is he hiding from us?” Junsu said very irritated.
As if on cue, Changmin entered the room with a wide grin on his face. “Hyungs!!” he said merrily. “Why are you here?”
“Speaking of the devil.” Jaejoong snorted.
“Changminah! What happened? Now Yunho hyung refuses to confess to Hyun ae.”
“Good.” He simply said smirking as he waved his hands to the maids. “Food.” He ordered to them then turned his head towards his older brothers. “Then, that only means our plan worked.”

YUNHO’s POV
I messed up my hair as I slumped back in my bed, my eyes looking straight at the ceiling.
I miss Hyun ae.
This is harder than I thought.
I extended my arm and reached out for my phone I just looked at it blankly.
No.
I shouldn’t.
I have been trying hard not to follow her around. It became an instinct as if her presence is an addicting drug to me. I have read that in books and watched countless movies about it. I really thought having someone that could drive you insane towards madness is not true.
But it is.
That simple curiosity towards her, that simple concern grew and blossomed into something I couldn’t control. This is mad.
This is the last straw.
I will definitely stop following her.

HYUN AE’s POV
It has been 3 days.
Actually, it has been 3 days, 4 hours and 25 minutes since I last saw Yunho oppa.
What’s happening?
Since our little misadventure in the police station he isn’t talking that much. Then after that he let me go home with Jaejoong which is quite unusual. We live next door to each other.
Did I do something wrong?
I hold tightly to my phone as I close my eyes and peek at its screen.
No messages.
Why? What’s happening?
I clutched my chest as I felt a tinge of pain.
I miss Yunho.
But what do you expect of him Hyun ae? Maybe he got tired? Maybe he got bored? Maybe I don’t resemble his sister that he got annoyed? Maybe he already has a girlfriend?
“What?” I said loudly oblivious of my surroundings.
Our professor slightly touched her eyeglasses and faced me. “Pardon me Miss Hwang but are you saying something?”
“I’m sorry prof.” I said as I found myself turning beetroot red from embarrassment.
She looked at me coldly and continued.
That was close.
It’s only because I am concerned about what happened to him.
Maybe he has a problem?
That could be it.
There was a lot of maybe’s swirling around my head. I will never get to know. I need to do something.
As the bell rang I decided to know what’s wrong with him.
I have to follow him to know without him knowing!

I clutched my bag close to me as I hide beneath the bushes a few meters away from the uni gate. I have been sitting here for 20 minutes or so waiting for Yunho to emerge in the crowd of people swarming the entrance. My legs started to ache and my hair disheveled by the small loose branches of the bushes.
‘How long can I bear this?’ I wonder.
Time passed quickly and I couldn’t even catch a shadow of him. “He will not come. He’s gone.” I murmured to myself.
“Who’s gone?” a man’s voice called out from me from behind. My heart fluttered in anticipation. “Op..pa?” I had my hopes up but was merely disappointed when I look up and saw a mismatch eye smile from the new comer. “Changmin-ah!” I smiled awkwardly.
“I like you calling me oppa.” He stretched his hands upward. “But we are the same year right? Are you older?”
I rolled my eyes as I saw the smirk in his face.
“Are you waiting for someone?”
I compose myself and tried to look away as I felt myself blush. “N..noo” I stuttered. ‘I hope he doesn’t notice that I’m waiting for Yunho oppa. I’m not trying to stalk him or something.’ I reprimanded myself.
“Well I am.” He grinned as he leaned over the nearest tree.
‘What? He’s stalking someone too? Who? Oh..! He didn’t say he’s stalking anyone, isn’t he? He’s waiting for someone. Yes, Hyun ae, Changmin is not a stalker. It’s more like it’s you Hyun ae. Omo, I am acting like a stalker! This is not good’ I frowned at my own thoughts.
“He’s here.” He said while pointing at someone. “Yunho hyung.” He grinned.
My heart went on overdrive as I slowly darted my eyes to where he is pointing. The same manly features I have been thinking these past few days stood dignified a few meters away from us. His hair which is perfectly messy is tousled softly as if he just came out from bed. He wore a simple gray shirt which defined his rippling muscles underneath. I hold my breath as I glimpsed at his lips, curved with an odd bitter smile with those small warm eyes that made my heart flutter with his thoughtful stares.
I gazed intently on him knowing something is different. ‘Why does his eyes seems.. sad? Yunho oppa, he looks so tired. He might have a problem. Why haven’t I no
