I: The Past
*Back in high school days*
"I knew it! You like Woo-seok don't you?" Jin-ae grinned as fake as possible. Soo-ah stood beside us in the girl's restroom , who looked at me accusingly.
"Yeah well-"
"So do you want me to set you both a date?" she tilted her head.
"I really don't want to confess that I like him right now. I don't need help I guess. I'm fine here. " I skipped out the fact that I liked him since childhood. I didn't want drama.
"Okay alright then." she shifted over her attention to herself in the mirror, adjusting her make-up.
It was only two days later, on Monday, when I heard the news that Jin-ae was in a relationship with Woo-seok and that people knew that I liked Woo-seok all this while.
I walked up to Jin-ae gathering up all my courage.
"What the hell are the rumours that are going around?" I asked her.
"Sorry, I guess?" she shrugged.
I closed my eyes letting out a deep breathe, trying not to cry. You're fine baby. You're alright.
"I think we're done. " I turned around and walked away from her. Tears fell when I got home, after school. I felt like dying. I didn't want to live.

II: Jin-ae's POV
I was jealous of Yuna. I didn't want her to be better than me. It irked me. I knew I could use the news her liking Woo-seok as an advantage to show people I'm much better than her.
To be honest, I wasn't much interested in Woo-seok since the start but all I could do was flirt around him to gain the popularity I desperately needed. I knew I was being a bitch but who really cares. After all I'd do anything to win.
I met up with Woo-seok over the weekend to confess to him and later tell people the news that Yuna likes Woo-seok. Who knew that Woo-seok would actually accept me, because I was just giving it a go.
I knew Woo-seok was the same as me. Using everything as an advantage.

Soo-ah and I came to Singapore for a vacation visit. Well that was just 30% of the reason. I wanted to see how Yuna was doing. It was a waste of money considering Jinyoung didn't take up my offer while we were at the club. Guess he's hooked onto her.
That didn't mean I had to stop trying.
