The teacher entered third grade class one and started the class. In the middle of the class, someone knocked on the door. Everyone focused on the person who knocked the door.
"I'm sorry to interrupt but may I meet with Song Yi Kang?" A boy raised his hand and went out to follow the principal.
"Why the principal want to see him? Is he have cause any problem?" Everyone whispered with each other.
"Everyone, please focus." The teacher said earning attention from the students.
The bell rings as the sign of the end of the class.
"Hey, I heard Yi Kang had a fight with a junior yesterday." A classmate said and it attracted Yong In. She quietly eavesdropped at their conversation.
"Really? With who?"
"Grade 2 Class 4 Lee Sung Ki." Yong In was shocked to hear that.
"What happened between them? Did someone injured?" Yong In asked out of concern.
"Yong In, since when you're interested in gossiping? But never mind, I'll tell you. I heard that Sung Ki started the fight by mocking Yi Kang. You know that Yi Kang is short-tempered, right? So, Yi Kang held Sung Ki's collar and wanted to punch him but luckily someone was there and stopped them. " Yong In was really angry at Sung Ki's behaviour. She took out her phone and texted Sung Ki.
'Meet me at the park after school.' After few seconds, Sung Ki replied.
'Ok!'
~~~~~~~~~~
Sung Ki left right after the last class ended and went to the park. He waited for a while since Yong In hasn't arrived yet.
"Sung Ki." He turned back.
"Sis!" He was about to hug her but she stopped him.
"I heard you started a fight with a senior?"
"How... How did you know that?"
"He's my classmate. How come I don't know? Why you do that?"
"I didn't do anything wrong,sis! He's the one who want to punch me."
"Really? But from what I heard, you mocked him first. I know that he's wrong because he used violence against you but still... Don't you know his temper?"
"His temper? Then what about me? He think I don't have any feelings? Before this, I just held it in when he said anything bad about me. But, my patience have a limit, sis!" Yong In hugged him and patted his back.
"Alright. I'm sorry if I was too harsh on you. I don't know what really happen between you both. You can tell me the whole thing if you want." They pulled out of the hug.
"Thanks, sis. What happen to him?"
"He just got a warning. Don't worry. But still, I want you to apologize to him tomorrow."
"Why? Shouldn't he the one who apologize?"
"Sung Ki... Sometimes we need to throw away our ego. It doesn't really matter who should apologize or who shouldn't. Who knows when you apologize first, he will realize you're not really bad and maybe rumors about you will stop spreading. Listen to me, can you? "
" Alright, sis. But, can you come with me? "
" No problem. This likely to be my little brother. "
~~~~~~~~~~
Yong In went to Yi Kang's seat as soon as she entered the class.
" Yi Kang. Can you come with me after school? "
" Why? "
" There's someone want to meet you. "He nodded then Yong In went to her seat.
~~~~~~~~~~
Yi Kang cleaned up his things and went to Yong In who was cleaning up her things.
" Who want to meet me? "
" You'll know. Let's go. I think he's already waiting."
"Why are you so mysterious?" Yi Kang followed her and she brought him to the park. There's a boy standing while playing with his feet.
"That's him." They went to the boy and Yong In cleared her throats made the boy turned his back.
"You're the one who want to meet me?" Yi Kang shocked after seeing the boy's face.
"Yes,senior. I.." Sung Ki looked at Yong In and she smiled as a sign that he can do it. "
" Senior, I'm sorry. I shouldn't test your patience. "
" You... You said what? " Yi Kang seems shocked by Sung Ki's apologies.
" I've said what I want to say. I hope there won't be any misunderstanding between us after this. " Sung Ki was about to walk away but Yi Kang stopped him.
" Wait... I'm sorry too. I'm the one who at fault. I know you've been holding grudge against me."
" Then, are you two good now? "Yong In asked.
" Yeah,of course. I have to go now. See you. "Yi Kang bid goodbye and walked away.
" You're right, sis. After this, I will apologize first whether I'm wrong or not. "
" Good boy. I'm glad you're okay with him. No more fight after this, okay? Last warning for you. Or else... "
" Okay, sis. I got it. No need to threat me. How about we go for a dinner? It's on me. "
" Really? Wow, I'm lucky to have a kind little brother like you. "
" Now you know it. Don't you regret not being my sister earlier? "
" Kind of. " They laughed and went to a restaurant.
" What do you want, sis? "
" I want cold noodles. "
" Okay. Waiter! Give us two bowl of cold noodles and two colas. " The waiter went away.
" Are you afraid to spend too much of my money? " Sung Ki asked Yong In.
"It's your parents'. You also should keep some of it for the future."
"It's okay." Their food arrived and they digged in. After they finished, Sung Ki paid for it.
"Thanks for the food, Sung Ki. Next time, it's on me."
"There will be next time? I can't wait for it!"
They parted their ways to their homes.
"I'm back!" Yong In said as she entered the house.
"Where were you?" Her mom asked.
"I have a problem that need to be settled. After that, I ate with my friend."
"What problems? Don't you know the exams are around the corner? You should study."
"I know, mom. I've started my revision. I'm going to my room first. Goodnight." Yong In went straight to her room.
