"Mr. Kim?"

"Mr. Kim?"

"Mr. Kim!"

At last, he opened his eyes! Mrs. Sanchez was screaming for 30 seconds. What's wrong with this guy? He thinks he's too popular and now he thinks he can ditch school? How pathetic.

I wrote something on a peice of paper and handed it to my bestfriend, Lay.

He squirmed as he read my note. He scribbled something and then handed it to me. Just in time. Mrs. Sanchez was done waking 'Mr. Sleepy head'. I gave him a look and he looked back. i just rolled my eyes. He is pathetic. our teacher handed our Literature exam results.

"Surprising, Mr. Kim is still the lowest on the class." She announced. He frowned as I looked at him again. he went back to sleep as the break bell rang.

"Hey Jong In!" A familiar voice echoed through the room. The room is a quarter full so there were no girls who came running to them. Suho, as I guess, waved at Sleepy Head. The other one, I think he's name is Baekhyun, he gestured Sleepy Head to go outside and join them. I looked at Sleepy Head, he was sleeping. I found a pen beside me and threw it at him.

"Oow!" I quickly turned around so that he won't see that it was me.

"Jong In! Hey!" They called again. This time, I looked at him to see what he's up to. He just stand up, bring his bag, took his jacket and then walked away from the room.

Sheesh. Another day again that he's ditching class.

When our break was over, mrs. Sanchez has announced a new way of progressing the grades of each student. Guess what? Yeah, your right. A tutorial. Guess who I'm paired with?

No, not sleepy head.

It's Lay! <3

My bestfriend! But he's not here though. I guess they have to work again. I really wish I could come with them at work but when I remembered something, I just wish I never lived.

It is dismissal time! I can't wait to go out with Lay. He promised he'll be treating me for dinner! Yiee! But Mrs. Sanchez called for me before I could go out.

"Ellie."

"Yes? Mrs. Sanchez?"

"If there's anything bothering you about my session, you can ask me."

"No." I said. Why would she say that? I mean, I really like how she paired me up with Lay. Great pairing.

"Really? Your teaching two guys here." A what? Two-Guys?

"What---Whose the other guy?"

"Mr. Kim."

I depressingly walked in the bus stop. The rain poured so strong that I keep missing a bus. i couldn't get the strength to walk through the rain and its getting late. Lay texted.

 [Lay; recieved 6:14 p.m] "Elephant! Sorry I can't come to the restaurant tonight. A meeting was arranged. Go home safe okay? And text him to pick you up.

Tss, why would I text him? Besides, I'm okay if Lay's busy. Just don't make him pick me up.

I decided to sit down and wait for the rain to stop. It won't hurt anyway.

Then something broke the peace in the rain. A feet just blocked my way. I looked up to see its face.

"I'm hungry." He said. "Cook me a crab soup when we get home.

I really hate you. I said to myself.

I followed him through his car. his umbrella was big so I don't have to get too close to him. As we drive home, we were silent and didn't spoke a word to each other.

As we walk together along the garden, he noticed me gradually sniffing my nose do he gave me a hanky.

"Wash them." He said as I took it.

Grr. Your a mad man.

I cooked him his request but he fell asleep on the couch.

"Hey." I poked his forehead.

"Hey, sleepy head." I was surprised when he opened his eyes.

"What?!"

"Dinner is ready." He quickly yawned and stretched.

"Bring them to me." I pittily took his foods for him. This is my role. I have to love it. Even if I will never do love it.

I watch him eating as I sat on the floor, Indian style. He looked at me when he sipped.

"What?" I asked.

"Why did you threw that pen on me?"

"Well--" He placed the bowl on his lap to listen. Well, how would I explain it. "They were calling you." I suppose he already know who the 'they' I was telling.

"You know I heard them right?" He said. He's collar bones are so clear down here. i just can't believe that for 3 months, I came to this close.

"No." he raised his eyebrow.

"You clearly want attention."

"Why would I?!" I objected. Of course I wouldn't! Why would I?

"Whatever." He rolled his eyes and stood up. He walked towards the kitchen and SURPRISINGLY washed the dishes.

"Why are you washing dishes?"

He didn't looked at me as I walked towards him. "You surprised."

"Yeah."

"Take a picture. this might not happen again." He teased.

I went to my room after I talked with Jong In and before I could go to sleep, I checked Jong In's room. He is attached to his phone again. Probabaly in the weibo. I closed my door behind me and slipped through the fridge. Mmmm. Lots of foods tonight.

I ate up quickly because I'm afraid that Jong In might see me.

"Getting hungry?" I almost spit my food out. It was him. Standing with his arms crossed.

"I was about to clean up." I hurridly cleaned up my mess.

"Make sure you slid them tight." He assures. Before i could go to my room, he called out.

"Ellie."

"Yeah?"

"Please don't get too close to Lay. It's distracting." I didn't know why I smiled but I was pissed. He can't tell me to go away from my bestfriend! How could he.

"I won't. He's my bestfriend!" I stomped my foot as I went to the bathroom to clean up. I checked the time. 7:44. Still early. I decided to just read a book. When I entered my room, I saw Jong In reading 'To Kill A Mockingbird'.

"What are you doing here?"

"Excuse me, your to tutor me and save my grades." he said with a duh tone.

I sighed in defeat.

I spent my time reading 3 chapters of the book and looking at Jong In.

"Please tell me you learned something."

"Actually, yes."

"Great! See you tomorrow." before I could close the door, Jong In stopped it.

"You can call me hubbie if you want." He said as he gives me a wink.

"You already told me that 2 months ago, 1 month ago, and days ago." I looked at him in the eyes. "No."

"You don't want to?" He said.

"No." I sincerly said. He winks again and even gave me a peck of kiss on the cheek.

"Good Night, my wife." For the first time in 3 moths, he said 'my wife' to me. Of course I wasn't fooled by his seductions. I know he does that to every girl. And I'm one of them.

Guess I need to go to sleep then.

<KAI>

"Ellie! Hurry up! Its getting late!" I honked the car to wake her up. She hasn't woken up yet.

Geez what taking that girl so long. I called her phone but she won't pick up. I decided to go back to the house and call her myself.

"What's taking you--" That's where it hit me.

She fainted.

I took her to the hospital in a rush. It was sudden but I contacted Lay and the rest of the EXO. Then the doctors came out. They spoke with me for a few seconds and then I went inside her room. She was still asleep.

'Don't make her stress.' The words echoed through my mind. Being so dumb, I shuffled my hair and ended up messing my thoughts.

So this is why her father asked me to marry her.

So this is why she agreed.

So this is why Lay would treat her like a queen.

So this is why they chose me.

~

At school, Ellie was normally okay. But for me she isn't. I already know her sickness. And she can't hide that.

"Ellie." I called. She gestured me to shut up. I sat back and just looked at her every move.

Lay is absent because of a fan meeting in Taiwan. Of course she's sad. Because she's left with me in the tutoring sessions. We went home together even though we were caught up with the crazy fan girls on the bus. She didn't sit next to me of course.

I was afraid she'd stress herself so i cooked us a meal.

"A really weird day."

"Nah, just taste my cooking."

"Pretty aweful." Her face doesn't look like she doesn't like the food.

"Then why are you still eating?"

"Because it might never happen again." I smiled on her thought.

She slept early.

I checked her at midnight and fell asleep beside her.

"GET OFF!" She pushed me down and I hit myself on the bed.

"Would you even dare to help me?"

"No." She left me hanging and she went to school alone.

Urghhh, I'm sick of her. At our wedding, I've been so kind but she was the one being so grumpy. if only you could see our wedding picture. And then i kept being so close and sweet but she keeps being arrogant and mad.

This is it. I'm not going to care for her anymore.

I dressed up and then left for school. When I arrived, she was not in her seat. I called Suho. He doesn't even know if Ellie entered the school grounds.

It wasn't my buisness but I was still worried.

At Mrs. Sanchez' time, she was sad and sobbing.

"Ellie was found dead in the bus. She was holding a trumpet and a note beside it." She took the trumpet from outside and cried as she read the note.

"Dear hubbie,

    Weird but true. I'm sick. And dying. I already know that its my expiration today. I don't really want to call you Kai because its weird. I was not your fan but was Baekhyun's. I usually clean up your magazines whenever you fell asleep. I always check you whenever you have concerts. I know its awkward so I don't really show my care to you.
    Here's a trumpet. I read your status in your weibo account that you really want a trumpet in your whole life. I spent my days working without your permission. Even my dad doesn't know it. Don't worry, I bought this with my own money.
     Even though I've been a very weird wife to you, I know I've done a great job. Except for your sleepy habit though.

                                                                                                 Truly Yours,
                                                                                                           Your Wife
