"Do you want to go see that movie tomorrow?" Jiyong asked his best friend, "The one we were talking about the other day."

Jieun tore her gaze away from the window, where it had remained all throughout the periods leading up to dismissal and looked at him. The few students left in the class were already filing out. 

"Sorry, GD, I already saw it with Yoona," She told him, not even making a move to leave. 

"Really?" He frowned, "When?" It felt as if they hadn't hung out in forever. He was feeling a little bit lonely, as if Jieun was leaving him behind.

"Yesterday," She said, "After school."

"Didn't you have classes?" He referred to the private tutor her family had hired to give her intensive lessons instead of attending an after school academy as other students did. Rich family indeed.
