둘이 (You & I)“GUESS WHAT!”
I could only make out a blur that somewhat looked like Donghae before the figure crashed landed on me, scattering my books on Tonal Harmony all over the floor. I collapsed onto the floor in a heap with a loud groan while Donghae began shaking me so hard that I thought my teeth started rolling around in my head.
Donghae wouldn’t stop giggling though, and after he’d calmed down a bit (and a few kind students gathered up my textbooks for me) he finally got off me with a huge smile on his face.

Donghae’s eyes hardened. “I’m not! I drive perfectly well, and I can prove it to you!” He jumped up and pulled me to my feet before dragging me off, barely giving me enough time to s
