The last thing he could clearly recall was someone familiar shouting his name, and after that, his mind had gone completely blank. The face that he could remember brightly smiling was growing pale by each passing second while she laid on her arms. When he failed to notice that incoming car, he did not expect that she would come out of nowhere to push him out of the way only to end up this way due to her hasty decision. Blood dripped down from her forehead while he tightly hugged her figure. He wasn’t able to think straight at that moment. The only thought running in his mind was that he wouldn’t let go of this warmth. All of his senses went dull, and the people that gathered around both of them did not catch his attention. Although everyone was creating a ruckus around him, the sounds did not reach him. His body shook while he could feel the warmth leaving her body each second. He did not know what to do. He was willing to do anything to have her open her eyes. While he held her

“Strange,” Mirae expressed while she stepped into the room. “He is not waiting for you today.” Hearing that caught Yura’s attention, and raising one of her eyebrows, she voiced out, “Is that so?” Mirae nodded her head and made her way over to Yura. Sitting beside her, she stated, “Aren’t you worried over it?” “Not exactly,” she replied, “he had been here for a long time and might have piled up a lot of work. It makes sense for him to be busy with work.” She would be lying if she mentioned that this did not make her anxious. Nonetheless, she preferred to think as positively as she could. Since things were all fine currently, she did not thing that he would be doing anything wrong. “The doctor mentioned about how you can be discharged within two to three days,” Mirae voiced out, “I was really looking forward to this trip. Too bad, it was cancelled. I don’t think I will be able to take another break from work.” “It’s fine,” she answered, “I can just go on one on my own.” Mirae sh

Ever since he had informed her that this was her punishment, Min Yura wasn’t able to calm herself down. She wondered what could have gotten into him to turn her into an outcast. Min Jisoo gave her no space to come in contact with the man to ask about the details, and he ignored all of her messages. He prevented her entry to his mansion. At this point, she was desperate and did not know what to do. Due to the pranks pulled by her classmates today, she totally drenched. She was crouched down at the hallway while her body shuddered due to the low temperature. She felt quite chilly right now. But after how she had run away from them, there was no strength left in her legs, and she desperately sought for warmth at this moment. Right at that instant, she felt out someone their jacket on top of her, and having her wish come true surprised her. Immediately, she lifted her head, and her eyes fell on the man before. He was the root to all the problems that befell on her. But she was reall

Min Yura maintained a cheerful mood when she walked into the school building next day. Relief spread through her as she realized that no one was acting strangely with her. It seemed that Youngjae was not aware of what happened the previous day, and that was enough for the girl to feel at peace. The fear made it hard for Min Yura to sleep throughout the entire night. Although she was careful yesterday, there might have been somewhere she could have slipped. Last night, she really regretted her actions for approaching Yejoon. It was not like she was able to cause a change within Yejoon anyway. Nevertheless, everyone’s attitude more or less confirmed it to her that Youngjae wasn’t aware of it, and once she stepped into the classroom, she noticed how Youngjae was waving his hand at her. His smiling expression solidified everything for her. °°° The classes for the day had ended. Youngjae and she decided to return home together. While they walked through the almost empty outdoors of

Getting closer to Ryu Yejoon, she extended one of the glasses holding the alcohol towards him. A smile was there on her face. Turning his head to face her, he suspiciously stared— an action of his she considered to be quite adorable although she did not think that she would ever have the courage to say that loudly to him. “For you,” she said, “don’t worry. I know that you don’t like anything with high alcohol content, so it is pretty low.” The last part slipped before she could control it, and she only stretched her lips further at the suspicious look he gave her. At first, she thought that he will be rejecting the drink. After all, although she tried to comfort him twice— which she wasn’t sure worked or not— both of them were not close. The only reason she wanted to do this was to anger Lee Youngjae. Seeing how Youngjae was seething right then was enough to satisfy her, and it pushed her to try further. Maybe he would get harsher on her tomorrow, beyond her imagination that too.
