Mid-term exams are fast approaching, most students are pulling all nighters, others even went to in-house libraries.
"Yohan, help me on Algebra, come on dude I need to pass"
"Now, you're worried?"
"Dude, my dad will kill me if I don't graduate"
"Chill, dude, let's make this on top"
"That's easy for you!"
...
Yohan started to straighten things up, this past few months he wasn't involve in any trouble.
He himself think that he wasn't the Yohan before, and didn't know what gotten into him these days.

"You're going to work again ?"
"How'd you know I'm working part-time?" Euna directly ask.
"Just... Honestly, I saw you in the convenient store when I was passing by"
"Really? You didn't follow me or something?"
"Ha! Don't think too much, I Yohan doesn't stalk someone else."
"Yeah, I was just kidding, I know you wouldn't" Euna replied, thinking as well that he won't do such a thing, his too prideful, and besides he doesn't want sticking his nose to other's business.
"Eh, you know I wouldn't, perhaps, you're the one checking out on me?"
"Tsk tsk tsk..."Euna can't take his behavior anymore, and just shook her head, folding his arms, and walk away.
"Hey, I was just joking you know!... he shouted and mumbled:
I just want you to know, how great you are."
The four months, that Euna stayed in K High, were the days that Yohan actually felt a sense of responsibility and wanted to act accordingly on his age.
Most of the times they walk together home, especially when Euna don't have a job, or if she won't go to the library.
They talk about school, and then Yohan would start teasing her and ended up bickering nonstop until they reach their houses.
Sometimes, Euna would be sentimental and start to ask personal and sensitive questions, that she discovered that Yohan and his brother weren't related at all and that he lost his parents as well.
She was astonished, that Yohan were very vocal about the matter, though there were hints of despair and sadness in his eyes, he still keep the smile planted on his face.
Euna liked his attitude at that moment, that even she was envious of, she wanted to be brave like him, and keep moving on with life like there's no anything that could hold her back.
"How about you, why did you transfer here at K high?" Yohan ask out of the blue.
They were in the topic of talking personal things, and because she started it, she couldn't avoid to answer and that she would at least be fair.
"Aunt Mary opened up her new restaurant here, and decided to start a new life in these neighborhood, and because this place is quite far with my previous school, it would be difficult for me, besides I need to rode three buses just to get there. And maybe these is for the best."
Yohan, understands well, but what got him so curious was what she said of having a new life, and ask gently..
"Why do you need to start a new beginning?"
Euna hesitated to continue but she still, "Just like you I've lost my parents as well, and every time I passes that street, I couldn't breathe, the place where I was living before had so much memories that it hurt so much."
Yohan could tell that she was really sad.
"Hey, I just knew some nice place to eat here, let's have some before heading home." He joyfully offers, changing the topic.
"Why, would you treat me?" Euna goes along.
"Um, let me check my wallet" Yohan brings out his wallet and he has only a dollar or so, and it's obviously not enough.
"Ha ha ha ha " Euna can't help but laugh.
Yohan can't help but to check out on her, he finds how genuine her laugh was, and that she had one dimple on her left check, he find her very warm and comfortable to be with.
"Come on, it would be my treat, but next time pay me back." Euna declared.
