12-Miss Him?

JAKE'S POV

I thought everything's alright after that. But it didn't.

I took glances at Sunghoon but he's not even looking at me. It's been a week since I hugged him. Was it a big deal?

Everytime the class ended he just went straight outside. I don't even know why he's not talking to me.

"What's with that face?"

Joohaeng sat in front of me. I'm shy to admit it but. Why is he suddenly so distant to me?

"Do you know perhaps. If. Uhm. Sunghoon has things to do after class?"

"As far as I know he's training. He has an upcoming contest."

Minjae spoke, pulling a chair beside me.

"Oh."

"Why? You seemed bothered?"

I glanced at him. I know Minjae knows something. Maybe it's not him but Jae.

"Nothing."

"He just seemed. Distant?"

Joohaeng laughed at me. Minjae smiled. Wait. What's so funny?

"What?"

"Why aren't you sure? We noticed it too. He suddenly became distant to you. And that's new."

Minjae held my shoulder.

"Don't worry. He just have a lot of things in mind. But if you really miss him, it's not bad to be the first one to talk right?"

Wait. Miss him? I miss him?

"Who said I'm missing him?"

"Pft. Don't lie."

"Anyway. Let's go home now. I still have a lot of things to do here so shoo~"

Joohaeng said. Pushing us out. I bid goodbye to Minjae as we're walking in opposite side.

I glanced around. I sighed. Then somebody suddenly spoke.

"Hi"

I looked at the guy beside me. Wait. He looks familiar? Is he my classmate?

"Hi? Uhm?"

"Oh. I knew it you won't notice me. Hi I'm Seokwoo."

He said as he extended his hand.

It will be arrogant not to accept it right?

"Nice to meet you Seokwoo. I'm Jake."

"I know! Just dropped by to say that you're really cute."

And he ran away. Okay? What was that?

I was about to walk again when a girl stopped my way.

WHY IS EVERYONE STOPPING ME?!

"Hi!!!! You're really cute! Can I have your name?"

Huh?

"I'm. Uhhh. Jake?"

"Nice to meet you Jake! I'm Jinwoo!!"

Why is she hugging me? At this place? Okay.

"Can I have your number?"

Oh. Is she flirting with me?

"Sorry I don't give my numbers to strangers."

She pouted.

"But I'm not a stranger! I just introduced myself to you remember?!"

It doesn't mean I know your name, you're not a stranger anymore.

I just bowed at her and proceeded to walk away. I was planning to walk today but I guess to avoid more people to show up, I'll just take a ride.

It's almost two weeks and he's still not talking to me. What did I do?

It actually pisses me off a bit. Now that I'm finally opening up, he's like this.

"So~ Should we go now?"

I glanced on the person who tapped me. It was Seokwoo.

"Oh. Hi."

He has been accompanying me to walk home for almost a week now. Since he's a little bit near our house.

He's friendly. Yeah. He really is. I thought we will walk home like the usual. Well. I thought.

Because there he finally is. Park Sunghoon. Leaning in the door. Staring at me.

AS IF I DID SOMETHING WRONG?
