Areum sits cross-legged watching her friend having fun karaoke. She stares at Ji Young who was hugging another girl. She decided to just keep quiet. Then, she realizes Ji Young was looking at her and immediately approaches her. His hand wrapped around Areum's shoulder. His lips were brought close to Areum's ears.
"Are you okay, baby?" Ji Young asked.
"Okay," Areum replied.
"Why are you sitting near here? Don't you want to dance with me? "Ji Young said while holding Areum's hand.
"I'm tired," Areum replied.
Then Ji Young brought his face closer to Areum's ear.
"Should we book a room now?"
Suddenly Ji Young kissed Areum's cheek.
"Stop it, Ji Young," said Areum, firmly.
"Just let me kiss you" Ji Young's lips then landed on Areum's lips.
Areum also returned Ji Young's kiss. Without her realizing, Ji Young's lips kiss her neck.
"Stop it, Ji Young"
Ji Young ignores Areum's words. His hands begin to crawl on Areum's body. Areum begins to feel uncomfortable. She kept pushing Ji Young hard and immediately stand up.
"I want to go," she said and kept going.
Ji Young's call she ignores and immediately walked away leaving the disgusting place. She reached for her phone and called her driver.
"Hello, where are you? Come here and get me now" she said.
"Don't tell my dad where I am now. Do you understand?"
She turned off the call. She ruffled her hair blocking her view. Then, she saw the body of someone she knew. She continued to approach the woman. As she got closer, she smiles. It's Aunt Kim. She immediately running towards the woman.
"Aunty Kim!"
Aunt Kim turns and looks at her strangely. Maybe she was remembering who the cute girl who called her.
"Aunty doesn't remember me?" Areum asked.
Aunt Kim begins to think.
"Me, Areum"
Aunt Kim smiles.
"Areum, Min Jun's friend that day, right?" Aunt Kim asked.
"Yes me. What is Aunty doing here? " Areum asked.
"Aunty wants to send Min Jun to Seoul so stop here for a while to close this café" she replied.
Areum saw the café in front of her.
"Is this Aunty's café?" she asked again.
Aunt Kim just nodded.
"Wow, after this Areum wants to hang out here. I can get a discount, right Aunty? " joked Areum.
Aunt Kim laughs a little.
"Just come. Aunty will give it to you for free "replied Aunt Kim.
"Thank you, aunty. There will be a time I'll come"
"What are you doing here?" Aunt Kim asked suddenly.
Areum is silent for a moment.
"Erm, Areum"
"Areum has an extra class here" she replied when she managed to think of a logical answer.
"Extra classes? Wow, school holidays but you're still thinking about studying"
Areum just smiled. Then, they are silent because they feel more comfortable that way.
"Areum"
Areum looks at Aunt Kim who seems to want to say something.
"Are you close friends with Min Jun at school?" Aunt Kim asked.
Areum nodded.
"We are not close as Aunty thought but Areum was the first person who talks to him," said Areum.
Aunt Kim smiles.
"Can aunty ask you for something?" Aunt Kim asked.
"What is it, aunty?"
"Let's go to the café. We talk inside"
Areum nods.

Hae Rin walks with Chae Min into the school.
"Are you sure you want to go to school today?" Chae Min asked, again.
"Yeah, I'm okay. It hurts a little but we've reached school" replied Hae Rin.
"I am worried. Besides, I don't believe anyone will take care of you "said Chae Min.
"You don't believe Areum either?" Hae Rin asked.
"I know she is your best friend but I still don't trust anyone to take care of you other than me" replied Chae Min.
Hae Rin laughed.
"What's funny?" Chae Min asked.
"I'm lucky to have a brother like you. Thank you for caring about me "replied Hae Rin.
Chae Min smiled cynically.
"Well, that's why the all-girl student is crazy over me"
Hae Rin felt disgusted to hear that.
"I praise you just a little, Chae Min. You're so arrogant" she looked at her brother with narrowed eyes.
Chae Min laughed contentedly. Then, Areum run towards Hae Rin from behind and immediately hugs Hae Rin's left arm.
"Auch!" Hae Rin moaned in pain.
Areum was shocked and let go of Hae Rin's arm.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked.
Chae Min immediately pulling Hae Rin's hand.
"My hand sprained last night" Hae Rin replied.
"I'm sorry, I don't know" replied Areum.
"Next time, don't play rough as that" Chae Min said suddenly.
Areum was silent. Hae Rin hit Chae Min's shoulder.
"I'm okay. Please go to class quickly "said Hae Rin then rejected Chae Min.
Chae Min just obeys and leaves. Areum continued to hold Hae Rin's right arm slowly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," said Areum.
"Never mind. I'm okay "replied Hae Rin.
They walked into the classroom.
"Luckily you have a brother like Chae Min. He takes care of you like his girlfriend" said Areum.
"I'm her sister. He must protect me "replied Hae Rin.
Areum just kept quiet.
"Nam Hyuk said he want to snatch me from Min Jun," Hae Rin said suddenly.
"What?"
Hae Rin just kept quiet.
"So, you just let him?" Areum asked.
"He said he would grab me in another way not a rough way" continued Hae Rin.
"So you want to say your plan was successful?" Areum asked.
"Of course. He really sincerely wants me to back "replied Hae Rin.
"Nevermind, it's up to you. I don't want to say anything about your plan and Nam Hyuk"
"But, I have a story about Min Jun"
Hae Rin was interested in Areum's words.
"I met Min Jun's mother"
Hae Rin is weird. Didn't Min Jun say his mother had left him?
"I mean, not her birth mother, but her adoptive mother, Aunty Kim" continued Areum.
Hae Rin just nodded. She was disappointed. Areum has met Min Jun's adoptive mother?
"Apparently Min Jun was dumped by his own mother. Then, Aunty Kim asked me to persuade Min Jun "said Areum.
Hae Rin just heard it. Persuade Min Jun? Areum wants to persuade Min Jun?
"She told Min Jun to go back to his birth mother because his mother is sick now. So she needs her child next to her" continued Areum again.
"But if I were Min Jun, I wouldn't go back to that woman. She dumped me, now when she's in trouble, she wants to take it back "said Areum.
"No matter how bad that woman is, she is still Min Jun's birth mother. So, you have to persuade Min Jun because that's the best "replied Hae Rin, flat.
Quite upset when telling her own good friend to persuade her own 'boyfriend'.
"Of course it's his birth mother, but he doesn't want to be forced" replied Areum.
"Areum, you don't feel what he feels. He may need time. But it doesn't mean he doesn't want a new life with his mother "replied Hae Rin and continued to leave Areum.
Areum was stunned by Hae Rin's words.
-
Hae Rin was disappointed when Min Jun did not attend school today. Where did he go? Why is he not attending school today? Is he sick? Without realizing it, she sighed loudly.
"What's wrong with you?" Dae Ho asked.
Hae Rin raised her head. All the members of her group look at her.
"What's wrong with you? Does your hand hurt again? " So Hyun asked.
Hae Rin shook her head.
"So, why are you? Sighing like you're very tired "said Jae Min.
"I'm a little tired" replied Hae Rin and continued to prepare her notes.
"All right. Our class ends here. Please complete the assignment I gave and don't forget on Wednesday we have a Mathematics quiz "said Sir Kwang.
"Alright, sir" replied the student.
Sir Kwang came out of the laboratory. All students packed up and left the lab for a break.
"Hae Rin, do you want me to teach you Mathematics?" Areum asked suddenly.
Hae Rin shook her head.
"Are you okay?" Areum asked.
"I'm okay. But today I want to hang out on top "replied Hae Rin.
Areum smiled meaningfully.
"Do you want me to accompany you?" Areum asked.
"No need. I need time alone "replied Hae Rin.
Areum just nodded. Hae Rin left her and headed to the roof of the school. Areum knows if she wants to get to the roof for sure Hae Rin has a problem and needs her own time. Arriving upstairs, Hae Rin opened the door. She walked over to the roof balcony and clasped her hands.
"Arghhh !!!" she screamed with all her might.
After screaming, she felt relieved as if the problem she was carrying disappeared just like that.
"Why do I feel like this when I think of them both? Am I jealous? "
Hae Rin tangled her hair. She was busy thinking about Areum and Min Jun.
"Who are you talking to?"
Hae Rin immediately turning her body looking for the title of who reprimanded her. Min Jun? Min Jun padded his school bag and approached Hae Rin.
"Min Jun? What are you doing here? " Hae Rin asked.
"Can't I come here?" Min Jun asked back.
He sat at the table next to Hae Rin standing.
"I thought you didn't come to school today," said Hae Rin.
"So you're paying attention to me?" Min Jun asked again with a teasing smile.
Hae Rin shook her head.
"No! You're sitting next to me, so if you're not there, it means you didn't come" she replied.
"I skipped class. After this, I'll enter the class "he replied.
"Okay" is the only answer given by Hae Rin.
"I need some peace"
"You want me to call Areum?" Hae Rin asked.
Min Jun looked at her with a strange face.
"Why do you have to call her when you're here to be with me?"
"You are close to her, so I think you will be more comfortable with her than me" replied Hae Rin.
What am I saying this? Why are you talking like you're jealous of them, Hae Rin? Min Jun looked at Hae Rin and then he smiled. Why is his smile now more and more seductive to me?
"I'll go first," Hae Rin said and wanted to go.
Min Jun quickly got up and pulled Hae Rin's left hand.
"Auch!" immediately Hae Rin pulls her hand from Min Jun.
Min Jun's face changed.
"Why wrong with your hand?" Min Jun asked.
"Nothing," replied Hae Rin.
Min Jun immediately reach for her hand. Hae Rin's forehead furrowed when Min Jun pulls her hand roughly.
"Your hand sprained?" Min Jun asked again.
Hae Rin nodded.
"Shit! I hate it "
Hae Rin was a little surprised by Min Jun's words.
"I'm okay" Hae Rin pulls her hand back.
"Hae Rin, I hate all this"
Hae Rin is weird. Does he say he hates me?
"I hate to see you hurt like this because its hurts me so much"
