Chereads / Eternity with You: Straykids Fanfic / Chapter 56 - The bitterness

Chapter 56 - The bitterness

Seungmin's POV.

        As I walked down the stairs, I kicked my feet in anger. Was she crying? She was about to cry! Yet, (*sighs and screams) I left her there. As I decided just to tell her that I won't ever talk to her. When, I decided to end up everything rudely! But, (*throwing punches in air!) The way I got softened! I hate it! And now, the way I'm regretting it the most!

        Will she cry? I hurted her! Should I run back to her? If I could, I will pick her up immediately and run to somewhere else hiding her. Away from everyone! The time I turned to her, Yes! I wanted to take her, with same intentions I had, never to return! not only her mask that is!

        I ran and saw Hyunjin waiting for me downstairs. He looked at me but, I just gestured bye telling him I'm going to study session. He was confused. Looking at my hands. Was I supposed to hold onto something?

        "Gift?" He asked.

        And before I could listen anymore, I left him overhearing few words. I was angry, that I didn't want to have any conversation with anyone! I moved my legs as fast as I can. Chaewon as usual waiting for me. And I went to study session with her.

        She asked me in a car if she should drop me at home. But I promised dad I won't miss any other study session.

        It was tiresome! Everything! I miss her! I miss her so badly. I wasn't able to concentrate. Did she cried? I made her cry! The worst person I'm! But why didn't she said anything? She should have resisted, she know I can't speak word against her. Going against her will is just a bluff I can make! She knows I can't ignore her. Doesn't she?

       She didn't even tried to answer back! Was she wanted to break off like this?

Third person POV.

        Reaching home, Seungmin slept with all the thoughts and an empty stomach. Without taking medicines that school nurse gave! Next morning with weak body he woke up. Having a little pain in throat and ache over all body! Mask still on his face. He didn't had time to even take that off. Or to say a will!

        He sat up, with half opened eyes. Carefully placing the mask beside him. Made his way to clean him up. And the daily routine of his, skipping the excercise part.

        He walked down and by seeing his slow and messy walk his mom knew! She checked on him, calling for a doctor. Doctor visited and the medications was given immediately. He was told to take care. Resting on a bed for the whole day. No studies!

        Yesterday when Yoona stood there not understanding what Seungmin said, She didn't know why he said that! But she was sure, he did wanted to sound rude! To make her belive everything between them ends here! But he couldn't. Did Ahn told him to behave this way?

Yoona's POV

        I throwed punches and kicks in air. Shading away the tears I had. Why he said that all sudden? Did I bothered him that much? Did I teased him? What did I even do?

It was bad idea to tell Ahn about dream. But she don't have to tell him right? And even if she told, he should have asked me! We should have talked way out. Why ignore me all of sudden!

        He couldn't yell at me? But he was angry? What nonsense is that? Was loving him is that a big mistake? It isn't. I wish I haven't told Ahn about it. I'm messed up now!

        I walked out having puffy cheeks. I tried not to show, but I was angry and sad. And just getting better from cold I still have those watery eyes. And Hyunjin waiting outside caught me.

        "Did something happened?" He asked.

I shook my head walking with him. He gave me few moments to cool down. He knew something was wrong.

        "So did you gave him his gift?" Hyunjin asked.

        "Gift?" I yelled. "I won't ever give that idiot any gift!"

        "Woah!" He laughed. And looking at him I laughed too. His giggles are the sweetest. And his eyes that gets turned into smiles. The angelic charm he has.

        "Ya! Hyunjin-ah!" I whined still laughing.

        "No!" He laughed again. Shaking his hands gesturing he is not meaning to.

        "I'm angry and you are laughing!" I threw a punch over his shoulder.

        "No! But just tell me what happened?" He asked getting serious now. But I knew he can't be serious for more than a minute.

        "I don't know!" We stood beside his car. He opening the trunk took out a bag.

        "What? Again?" I exclaimed.

        He laughed again taking his bag, a sign that he would probably spend the weekend again with Felix. He just waits for it. His bag is always ready. Why don't he just shifts with him?

        "You go on ahead. I'm listening!" He said closing his car.

        "So, when we walked! He was ignoring me!" We started walking. Yes he leaves his car here and at night, walking with Felix he takes it to our home.

        "Usually he don't!" I looked at him in case he responds with something. And he laughed,

        "As I don't know! Of course I know how you two talk! Further tell me further!" Replied he.

        "Hmm. So I tried talking to him. But he was quite all the way. So I started irritating him. In order to get a reply! But he just said suddenly that, "don't call me by this name!"" I tried to imitate his tone. And Hyunjin laughed again.

      "I got scared but then, I got back on my feet again. Stopped teasing him. And he then said, "Don't talk to me here after! I'll ignore you! But you don't stop studying!"" I again tried imitating his voice which made us two brust out of laughter.

        "Ah!" Hyunjin sighed after long laugh. "Why did he said that! Is something matter? He didn't even told anything to me!"

        "I don't know!" My eyes getting teary again. "How can he say so! But he said he wanted to sound rude. But he couldn't!" We walked silently for this.

        "He said it was meant to be rude! Was he going to yell at me!" I looked at him and he too was clueless.

        "Should I ask him?" Hyunjin asked.

        "You don't need to. If he wants to, he will tell! I'm guessing!" I looked at him. And he too knew, I have my own doubts. He was waiting for me to speak.

        "In morning, I actually told Ahn that I have, not clearly but like, giving her hint. I like Seungmin!" As I finished Hyunjin gasped.

        "And you ask why he suddenly said stop talking! What you expect more then!" Replied Hyunjin dramatically. Sometimes he reminds me of Han. Han would have given the same reaction. But with a little different tone.

        "Of course Ahn told him not to get close to you!" Said Hyunjin again.

        "Do you think so?" I asked.

        "But she didn't believe I have feelings for him!" I replied.

        "What?" He asked.

Flashback! No one's pov.

        "I won't!" Yoona replied.

        "Umm! I know!" Ahn laughed.

        "What?" Yoona asked. Suddenly hearing someone's footsteps fading.

        "Do you think someone was listening to us?" Yoona asked getting up at looking at door.

        "I don't know. I don't have sensitive ears like you!" She pulled out the keychain from her pocket. A gesture of calling a kitty.

        "Ah this sounds beautiful!" Yoona taking it from her ringing it few times sat there.

        "So, yoh aren't mad at me?" Yoona asked again.

        "Well, you are close to him. And if you wanted, you would have tried already flirting with him!" Ahn started explaining. She is a calculative person. She thinks about all the things.

        "But, if I didn't had Idea about your Mr. Prince. I would, might have scolded you and even hated you for it!" Ahn laughed.

        Yoona was shocked. She laughed back with little awkwardness. Ahn was thinking about Mr. Prince?

        "Mr. Prince?" Yoona asked still laughing awkwardly.

        "Um! If only I didn't see you blushing after talking to him. I would have really believed you have feelings for Seungmin!" Ahn laughed. "But I don't see you having those feelings. Um hhmm!" Ahn shook her head. "There's nothing more between you and him than a teasing friendship!" Ahn laughed.

        "You don't think so?" Yoona asked confusingly.

        "Um!" Ahn laughed again.

        "Come on! Because of a damn dream don't think you like Seungmin!"

        "Eh?" Yoona asked akwardky.

        "What! You don't even act like you have crush on him!" Ahn was serious this time.

        "And you say, if you want to get rid of this, you will get closer to him? Which is exactly opposite how to react to your crush!"

        "Yes, because that's how I feel!" Yoona answered.

        Ahn laughed, "Why are you so sweet Yoona. It's nothing but you being overthinker!" Ahn stood up.

        "What if I tell you, talk to Mr. Prince of yours, a lot!" She bent putting her hands on Yoona's shoulder.

         Yoona did got shy, thinking of talking to him a lot. The thing, she have wondered by herself few times.

        "Yes, talk to him day and night. And tell me that you won't get mad in love with him!" Ahn smiled.

        "So how you gonna get over in love with Seungmin by standing beside him aa day! You just gonna fall for him more!" She stood back. "So, it doesn't matter! What I'm saying is, it's just your overthinking mind. You don't get serious about this!" Pouting a finger first and then dropping it Ahn laughed. "Sweet Yoona!"

        This made Yoona to rethink what Ahn said. "According to Ahn, Mr. Prince is the person I've crush on. And I can't have that on Seungmin?"

        Yoona laughed at it. As weird it sound, the wierd it was. She somehow grasped that Ahn wanted to make her believe that, she don't have any feelings for Seungmin. Well it was the best for everyone, she followed Ahn to classroom.

Flashback ends.

        "She said that I've crush on other person and not Seungmin!" Yoona replied.

        "You have crush on someone else. And you didn't even told me?" Hyunjin screamed.

        "Ya! Hyunjin! It's how she thinks. But it's the same person!" Replied Yoona.

        "Care to explain!" Asked Hyunjin.

        "So! The thing is! Ahn thinks I've crush on this person who called me one night. And Bong read name "Prince"! And I was blushing talking to him. When they asked I told them he was relative. A relative freind!" Yoona stopped looking at him.

        Hyunjin was trying to note down all, which was only making him get confused.

        "And the Mr. Prince is.." Yoona looked at him expecting him to answer.

        "Seungmin?" Hyunjin screamed again with excitement.

         He covered his mouth seeing how embarrassed Yoona was after this.

        "So you lied that it was another person!" Hyunjin asked.

        "Um!" Yoona nodded.

        "So Ahn think your love is that another relative freind of yours. And Seungmin is your just freind that you can't have feeling for! Oh she is confusing you!" Hyunjin laughed. "She want you to focus on Mr. Prince not knowing Mr. Prince is the same person!" And another laugh followed.

        Yoona was walking quitely. Busy with her thoughts.

        "Well I don't know! I'll ask him about it!" Replied Hyunjin looking at Yoona who was worried.

        "No! Let it be! If you think of it. He might have reasons. He won't say some things like that! And it's actually good!" Yoona replied. "And he was sorry for it. He seems to be sad over this!" Replied Yoona.

        "That old men might be the reason!" Replied Hyunjin shaking his head.

        "Ah, don't think of anything Hyunjin. Now talking to you, I feel I was getting angry for nothing!" Replied Yoona taking deep breaths.

Hyunjin looked at her without understanding what she meant. She started to explain.

        "I mean! He was sad. And like you said, yeah something might have made him to say this. He have his ways. I'll wait until he starts talking again!" Replied she.

        "And gift?" Hyunjin asked.

        "Ah we will see! When he talks I'll gave him!"

On Saturday. Kim's house. (Weekend holidays)

        Seungmin was resting on bed for a complete day. Not able to do anything. Covered in blankets. He woke up at evening. Checking his phone making himself comfortable.

        His first routine to check Yoona's text. But nothing was there. He remembered suddenly what happened yesterday. He threw blankets checking for the proof of yesterday. The mask? Yes! And it was all real and not a dream. (More like nightmare!)

        Sighing, he went to check out what others were doing. He checked Ahn's message. She usually don't send any.

        "I'm not going to classes. Don't wait for me!"

        "She too didn't attend?" Seungmin then replying to all the stupid messages his freinds sent, sat smiling. His mom entered the room.

        "Um? Blushing?" His mom asked.

        Seungmin smiled seeing her. "You ask! Stupid friends of mine mom!" He laughed again.

        "Um! Not any message from any girl?" Asked Mrs. Kim.

        "Um, Ahn said she won't be coming to class either!" He replied.

        "Oh, she don't know you are sick?" Asked Mrs. Kim.

        "Um! And I don't want to tell. I'll be fine by tomorrow. What's need then!" He replied.

        "Um, finish it and then this medicines!" His mom asked and he did.

         His mom sat with him until he finishes it and take medicines.

        "Min-ah?" His mom asked with some worring tone.

        "Yes!" He asked looking at her.

        "Is something wrong?" She asked.

        Raising one eye Seungmin looked at her.b"Um!" He nodded and a devilish smile appeared.

        "I've fever and a weak body. And little cough that it hurts when I speak!" He replied then laughing.

        "Min-ah!" His mom laughed.

        "No! I mean! Is there something wrong in school?" She asked.

        "No! Why?" He asked curiously.

        "No! You just seemed to cry!" She replied caressing his face.

        "Why would I cry?" He asked.

        "That's what I'm asking. Is there something bothering you?" She caressing his hair asked.

        "Nothing mom!" He replied smiling to reassure her.

        "Well, if you ever feel talking to me. I'm all ears okay!" She smiled.

        "Um!" He smiled.

        "Ok! I won't disturb you then. Have a sweet sleep!" Said she and left the room.

        Seungmin sat quite for time being. And then again scrolling through his phone he tried to distract him. Yes, to distract his urge to call a certain someone.

        He went through SNS and saw Ahn posting a story. Of she, Bong and Yoona. They were at game parlour. Bong and Ahn with great smile and the smile Yoona gave was too obvious to know. That it was fake one. He saw it was few minutes ago.

        There he go! Can't wait to talk to his girl why she seems so sad. Well after yesterday what he expect? When she said she have a crush on him and then, he stopped talking to her.

        He called her. At a current moment Yoona was sitting on table beside, with Bong and Ahn continuing their game. Their phones were on table. Yoona lost the game early, and was sitting there.

        Her phone rang. She looked at it and seeing that, she put it on silent. Ahn looked at her and Bong too. They thought she was on call but she sat there, quite! Not a minute and another call. And yet she didn't try to glare a look.

        "Are you on fight with someone?" Bong asked.

        "Bong, Mr. Prince was it!" Ahn smiled who had a glance over caller's name. Focusing back on game they laughed.

        "Why aren't you picking up?" Bong asked teasingly.

        There comes the another call. And yet she didn't pick. She received the text but she didn't dared to open it.

        Seungmin was waiting for her to accept the calls. But the long ring and no answer. He dialed again. But no answer. He went to text her furiously. Throwing his hairs back getting little angry over the fact. He called her again and no answer.

        He took deep breaths. And again texted but, no answers. He then called on Ahn's phone. Ahn turned looking for her phone but the game was ongoing.

        "Who is it?" Ahn asked.

        "Kim Seungmin!" Yoona looking at her phone replied.

        "Can you please tell him, I'll call him back few minutes later!" Replied Ahn.

        Yoona looked at her with shock. "Here I'm trying to avoid his calls and you try to make me speak? Are you an idiot Ahn!" Yoona yelled inside.

        Ahn gave a smile again turning to her. It was about to be a dead end for a call as it rang for long time. Yoona picked it up.

        "Hello!" Seungmin questioned.

        "Hello!" Yoona replied.

        Listening the person responding from other side, he was about to throw out his words, "Give Yoona phone!" but the words and his world too, stopped listening her voice.

        "Yoona-yah!" Seungmin laughed. As if his soul returned to his body. He was finally feeling that something heavy from his heart lift up.

        "Ahn said, she will call you moment later!" Replied Yoona and was about to cut the call.

       "Why didn't you answer my calls?" Asked Seungmin.

        Yoona stopped. She can't be too rude to this sweet person, right?

        "Are you sick?" Yoona asked. Feeling his voice didn't sounded too good.

        "Um! Because of you!" He laughed again.

Yoona felt a little anger inside. She didn't replied. Well she wanted to fight back. But she didn't wanted to talk to him too. But yes again, talk to him too!

        "Why didn't you pick my call?" He asked again.

        "You said to ignore you!" Yoona replied not wanting to sound too rude. But she did.

        "I didn't tell you to ignore me! I said I'll ignore you!" He yelled. Followed by cough.

        "So what...." Yoona was about to say when Ahn approached her. She gestured asking for phone. And Yoona handed with a smile.

        "Ah, are you sick Seungmin?" Ahn asked worrying, Listening to his coughs.

        "Ah, no! Just little cough!" Replied Seungmin.

        Yoona ran to have another game knowing he will ask for her again if she is here.

        "Where's she! I had some unsettled quarrel!" Asked Seungmin.

        Ahn laughed. "Well she ran for another game!"

        "So, why you called for?" Asked Ahn.

        "Um, about classes. But then I found you too didn't attend!" He laughed awkwardly.

        "Um, no worries we will handle it together!" Ahn smiled and soon the call ended.

        Yoona after the call did came back to her older self a little. Spending some time more they went home.

         Laying on bed after her daily routine Yoona took out the phone. Checking on updates. She found Hyunjin posted something. A dance video. He dances so passionately that each video turned into addiction for others.

        She commented, seeing that lots of girls have crush on this boy. And this boy!? Shh!

        She had the notification of his favourite person but yet, she ignored it. First she went through each and every possible thing over SNS. And in last, about half an hour past, she went to check on him.

        Again a lot of texts. Yoona rolled her eyes. "Is what 'I'll ignore you' called?" Reading the texts she giggled. Why he have to get this panicked over one sentence? He took seriously how she said to ignore him!

        Seungmin did thought to ignore her. But he too knew this! He can't. Even if he tries his best, he can't. But, if Yoona decided to ignore him, he can! It would be end.

        Seungmin was getting overwhelmed by how Yoona said that rudely. But more than that, she was sad. Did he hurted her alot? He was sad, Yoona can't say this to him unless she is angry. Afraid of what turn of events will take place, he was overthinking.

        Still laying on his bed waiting for someone's call Seungmin was awake. Unable to sleep! And soon the phone rang. And he curiously woke up to see. And seeing his girl's name that he recently changed into, "Avoid" he smiled. Just to remind himself he have to avoid her. That's how he was going to ignore her.

        "Hello!" Said Seungmin somehow showing that he isn't interested in talks.

        "If you are busy I won't call!" Replied Yoona knowing this puppy boy was just showing some attitude.

        "I'm not!" He replied. Just a day it was and he got away from path he chose. Stay on principles Kim Seungmin!

        "What you are not? Aren't you going to ignore me?" She asked.

        "I'm going to ignore you! Not your studies and neither mine's!" He said smiling a little bit still trying to hide how happy it makes him when she talks like this.

        "Oh!" Yoona dramatically said. "You are so kind Seungmin to think for my studies!" She laughed.

        "Tell me what happened in school yesterday no one told!" He asked.

        And Yoona started explaining that the teacher was absent and they went to theator just to play some fun game. As the hour was given to theator teacher.

        Everything that Yoona said made him feel good. He was laying comfortably smiling while she talks continuously.

        "So basically what I say is! You didn't missed a thing!" Yoona said.

        "How didn't I? You guys had so much fun. I missed it all!" Seungmin replied.

        "Trust me it wasn't good. Ahn said if you were there you might have regretted it!" Laughed Yoona.

        "Not a single moment I regret when I'm with you!" He smiled. And momentarily those words skipped.

        "What?" Yoona asked as if she didn't heard.

        Seungmin laughed. Did she heard it or not? Well it doesn't matter!

        "Well my princess, I'm gonna rest. Make sure you sleep too! Good night!" Said Seungmin face plaming as he was feeling dizzy because of medication.

        "Princess?" Yoona giggled.

        "Ok, good night!" Seeing no response coming Yoona cut the call. And Seungmin did fall asleep.

        The Sunday went with no calls. Yoona wanted to, but she didn't knew what he thinks! And as the thoughts were going on, she didn't wanted to bother Seungmin. Ignoring him was also a best option for Yoona. Falling for him more isn't a good option. If someone really said him to stop talking to her, that was a good deed.

        Yoona went on date with Felix and Hyunjin. They knowing how Seungmin, her crush told her to ignore him! How sad she can be? Felix knew about this from long. From maybe last year. How she was so excited about a certain someone! And her board in front of her study table. Which had, lots of photos of Hyunjin, Felix and Seungmin.

        Felix as a gift bought a flippable board so that she won't get embarrassed by it. They had a lot of fun with this date, and this time Felix being photographer for those two. Hyunjin and Yoona took few classes from him.

        In evening when three sat in Felix's room looking at photos they took this noon was laughing and sharing their thoughts. When Yoona's phone rang. She saw and moved out of room.

        "Hello!" Yoona said silently.

        "Where are you?" He asked.

        "Why?" She asked.

        "You better be in room studying!" He replied.

        "Well today's sunday. Who studies on Sunday?" Yoona asked.

        "Well, I'm! And you should too!" He replied.

        "Had dinner?" He asked.

        "I ate a lot that it's better to skip!" She replied.

        "Ok! Then open your books! We are having discussion!" He replied. Seungmin wanted to ask about what she did all day long. But he couldn't.

        "Ya! Seungmin-ah!" Yoona yelled and then cooling herself down. "You can't joke like this all sudden!" She whined.

        "I'm not! You better listen to me if you want good scores!" He said not having any change in tone.

        Yoona felt there was something bothering him. But she couldn't ask. Shall she? Will he tell her? He definitely will not! But if she spends time he might open up in minute.

        "Min-ah?" She called him. Yes! The melting point!

        "What!" He asked.

        "Is there some problem? You said to avoid, then you call and all do is study talks!" She asked.

        "No other talks! That's a good point you got. Not start study or I'll end call here!" He sighed. And she knew she better spend some time with him. Maybe he will talk about it.

        She ran to her room greeting the boys, where call was still ongoing. Seungmin smiled listening to her daily talks with her friends and her mom. The tention he had a moment ago was somehow got erased by Yoona's voice.

Flashback!

        It was Sunday noon, when Yoona and her two best friends were enjoying date, Seungmin was in room concentrating on something that has been bothering him from morning. ( Study related ofcourse)

        The door get knocked. The unusual one. He knows how his mom and dad knocks the door. He answered the call. And the door get opened. Here comes the worst that could happen. His old man, that is Seungmin's grandfather came. He first took a deep sigh and then having forceful smile he greeted him.

        "GRAMPS!" He welcomed him with hug. Here followed another person he less expected. None other that his Gramps favourite, Ahn Chaewon! He greeted her too and ask them to sit on couch.

        With little talks, and his mom visiting them it was all going good. When all suddenly his grandfather mentioned about Seungmin's score.

        "Seungmin! You are a bright student and you know that. Don't get ruined by others! They don't know how capable you are of. They just want to let you spoil and get dirty as them. But you know.." he looked at him,

        "You should always make sure, not to follow on others route!" Yes the one who make others follow his lead talks about how one should not follow what other want.

        "Gramps, why don't you say I did better. You all say is, Seungmin didn't do great. But no one praised me!" Ahn talked making a little pout.

        Gramps patted her smiling. "You did well Won-ah! As always. But your freind! Um-hmm! Your partner should know too, we can't let him on loose right!" He laughed.

        Seungmin didn't wanted to bother their sweet talks. And didn't wanted either to get added.

        "Can you bring tea for me dear?" Gramps asked Ahn.

        Ahn nodded and left. They both sat in peace now which was broken by, the old man.

        "You should know what future awaits for you! And I know, you know that very well! Getting others involved can only hurt you, or end up you hurting them!" At this Seungmin flinched a little.

         "So, don't let others join your journey unless you don't want to take them till the end!" Old man smiled looking at him and Seungmin getting little confused.

        "But what I say is, don't get too close to anyone. It will just make everything hard, you know!" Old man started explaining via gestured which was unreadable.

        "In my opinion you should stay as how you were! You are changing alot!" And now he slowly again started to get serious.

        "You miss classes in school! You miss extraa classes. You avoid Wonha and Your special classes. I found you hanging out and having parties. The special programm during summer. You skipped it!" He looked at Seungmin.

        "You get it, how your scores got bad?" Old man chuckled. "You should get back on your tracks, or it will be late. Sometimes you forget the way in between and there's no coming back son! No coming back, so..."

         Ahn came and old man stopped talking. "So what I say is, study hard! And also make my Wonha happiest on the earth! Right Won-ah?" Old man smiled seeing her coming.

        "Um!" Ahn smiled. The few talks that were lead by Ahn and nothing else.

        It was clear sign for Seungmin that he was being monitored. Does they meant any harm to Yoona? Don't get too close? Does he knows about Yoona?

        They left in an hour. Ahn was close to old men. Mr. Hwang, Mr. Kim and one of their few friends. She was among the favourite child of their generation.

        These talks of his Gramps made him feel so wierd. All his words that keep repeating in his head. He tried to concentrate but couldn't. Her mom called him for dinner. But he didn't felt like eating.

        He sat their quite focusing on what to do. When all the sudden he remembered, how well he got grip on the concept once when he was explaining it to Yoona. And it made him smile.

        He took out phone and went to recent calls, searching for his "Nyangi"! Only to find "Avoid" on top. He kept back his phone. "Yes, avoid!" Seungmin sat closing his eyes. And again the old men words started bothering him.

         "Did Ahn told him about Yoona?" He asked himself. "Will they try doing something?" "They won't, right?" He was scared.

        Fighting back with a lots of thoughts he finally decided to call her. And there his girl accepting his wishes. Not making his wait long. Yoona's voice always made him to get quite. To concentrate. To be at ease and forget all the bad things. Just like how sea waves calms one soul down.

        "Change to page no..." And the study begins.

        Yoona's mom was listening from outside. Just worrying what her child was doing. And she was shocked seeing Yoona studying. She wanted to know what got into her all of sudden. To study at this hour! When especially she do at this hour is gaming or movie.

        The noise coming from above made her know that the both boys were awake.

Mrs. Eun went upstairs and heard those screams both fighting over a game.

        "Ya!" She yelled standing in front of door.

        "Ah Mrs. Eun! Please save me!" Hyunjin screamed.

        Mrs. Eun Entered and saw Felix had him under three to four pillow and himself on top.

        "Lix! Lix! Baby! What are you doing! He gonna pass out! He barely have his life in that body!" Mrs. Eun trying to get Felix up from him said.

        "No aunt! He just need to know, learn a lesson!" Felix said laughing.

        "I promise! I won't do it again!" Hyunjin laughing but yet grasping for air said.

        The sight made Mrs. Eun laugh. And Felix soon sat quite.

        "Why! What happened?" Mrs. Eun asked.

        "Ah what else! He knows what makes my character die. Yet he does the same thing always!" Felix yelled side-eying Hyunjin.

        "Wait Yongbok! I do the same with everyone! That's why I forget when it's your turn. I try to remember but then.." he laughed

        "Ah! You did it so many times already!" Felix yelled again.

[ To clear the concept of game. A concept from SKZooVERSE. (Another story that is building up) The power void Hyunjin have for his character "Jiniret", pulls out all the super power the person have. What normally Hyunjin does when he sense danger is, pick up his companion in void (that doesn't hurt a person just erase super powers) and leave the arena for a moment.

While the character Felix have "bbokari" have saving power. "Exilir"that is. When he touches the wound, it get healed in no time. When Felix's character enter the "Jiniret's power void" he started getting hurt. Getting wonded. And turning into a mess.

Everyone told "Jiniret" not to take "bbokari" into his void. But when he senses danger, it's his habit to take all companion in. Which makes "Bbokari" die when they play! ]

        Felix was sitting there still side-eyeing him.

        "Hyunjin, do you have a test tomorrow?" Mrs. Eun asked.

        "Test?" Hyunjin raised his head. "No I don't think so! Wait!" He checked his phone. "No Mrs. Eun! There's no test!" He answered.

        "Ah! Yoona suddenly started studying!" Mrs. Eun exclaimed.

        "Wow! That's a great thing!" Felix smiled.

        "Yeah!" Hyunjin nodd his but dissatisfied.

        "Odd too!"

        Three of them sat their quite.

        After few hours. Crossing 12 AM. Yoona still was on phone. And his tutor clearing all the thoughts. Getting little confused and then resolving it by himself.

        When Seungmin felt little hungry he checked on the time.

        "It's past 12?" He asked.

        "I don't know!" She replied still solving what Seungmin told her.

        "You can leave it now Yoona. You should sleep. There is school tomorrow!" He said.

        "Well I really don't feel like it!" Yoona answered.

        And he smiled! Wanting to kiss those cheeks and those lips that he missed.

        "Well! If you feel or not! I'm doing it my way!" He laughed. About a falling for other that is!

        "What?" She asked.

        "You are going to beat me in this exam!" He said.

        "Woah! Then you should stop studying!" She giggled. "That's how you can help me get more marks than you!" She replied.

        "That's not how it will go!" He replied. "If you beat me! I'll grant you a wish! What you say?" He laughed. Just wanting to know how will she reply.

        "Woah! Kim Seungmin making a bet!" She finally let the pen go.

        "Yes! That's how serious I'm! So tell me, what is that you want?" He asked.

        "You will grant me a wish! Anything it can be really?" It picked up Yoona's interest.

        "Um!" Seungmin replied.

        "Even if I ask you about anything! Anything that is?" Yoona sounded curious.

        "What is that you want so bad?" He laughed. "Well I don't say no to anything so this bet actually doesn't matter to you right?" He asked.

        "Well, Mr. Seungmin! You don't actually say no. But do refuse to few of things. And I have pretty good idea what to ask!" Yoona laughed.

        "But," his smiled vanished.

        "Let just ignore each other for few time. I don't want you to get bothered!" He said.

        "Bothered?" She asked.

        "Um!" He rubbed his temples before speaking. "Dont ask further. I just got in better mood now!" He continued.

         And Yoona gupled down all the things she wanted to ask. Yoona was worried about him. First she thought about Ahn telling him. But if that was that case, he didn't have dared to call her back. And tell her that he will ignore her. He didn't wanted to get on bad terms with her. But make belive that they aren't close.

         The stories she heard popped up all sudden. How his parents makes him study, and a thing about Ahn too. That he can't deny what they says. And the creepy of all. Being cut down from people who is close to him. The thought that crossed her mind when he suddenly said, ignore each other for some time.

         She have heard stories that, the boys Seungmin were close to where get transferred as his parents felt they being here can make Seungmin lose his concentration. And that was the reason his group with Chan was a secret. His old men didn't find about it yet.

         "Um?" Yoona was all about to ask.

         "Studying makes me feel good!" Seungmin replied.

         "Was it study or talking to me?" Yoona asked. Which made him giggle.

         "Ignore each other! Then don't yell at me when I ignore you!" Yoona said.

         "No! You aren't going to ignore me! It's me! You won't ignore me you got it!" Seungmin replied furiously. Showing how scared he is, of her ignoring him.

         "Ah, min-ah yah! How cute you are! Are you scared of getting ignored?" She said laughing.

          "Um! I don't want to imagine getting ignored by you. Not again!" He shook his head. But the feeling of relief that Yoona sensed.

           "Aww! Don't sweet talk like this. What if I fall in love with you?" Yoona dramatically said.

          "It's actually wonder how you didn't fall in love with me!" Not bothered by how she said he replied. How many times have she said this similar words. And he too!

         And Yoona felt this was it Ahn talked about. The friendly flirt. And nothing more. Seeing how tensed Seungmin was she could feel he can't actually go aginst his old men wish. That is to marry Ahn. And again "nothing can be done!" Look returned. She took a sigh which got Seungmin's attention.

        "What is it?" He asked.

        "You can't deny what they say right?" She asked. Having her half closed eyes. Laying her head on table and flicking the table lamp.

        "Well it isn't that case. And don't listen to others regarding me!" He knew what Yoona meant. He knew what talks about him get told when someone new comes.

         He was about to speak but he soon slapped himself before sleeping and falling into the hallusiantions Yoona was doing. He didn't spoke about this to anyone. And Yoona was asking him about it.

          "Ya! Let me sleep and you sleep too!" He yelled. Remembering, Yoona can get anything from him. And the other thingsl he scared of! She trying to get close to him to get rid of the feelings she have. He can't let her have them.

         He did planned all day to tease her. To make her believe on her feelings. And make her fall for him more. The ignoring thing was helping him from both sides. His old men not discovering about her and she falling for him more.

        "Yoona-yah!" Seeing Yoona not replying he asked.

        "Um!" She replied with little hmm.

        "Are you sleeping?" He whispered a little.

        "Um! The words are floating in air. I need to sleep!" She replied giggling. She too wispering.

        "Good Night love!" He smiled and blushed as he unintentionally called her love. Covering his mouth resisting himself not to say any other word.

        "Night!" She said. And she passed out.

        Seungmin cut the call. Hoping if he could, he would have picked her up, making her lay in bed comfortably. He soon cut the call. Went to kitchen to grab something to eat. Smiling and humming as he felt happy after two days.

        His mom who was awake listening to beautiful hmms of Seungmin. She smiled finally seeing her boy smiling and being genuinely happy.
