Chapter 9

Wheein was left alone in the studio, and she let out a big sigh remembering the incident that happens between Byul and Solar.

-<<Shit! I hate owning people>> - said Byul to herself looking at Solar in the washroom. Solar was washing cloth to clean the stain that was on her shirt. -Sorry about that. But just to be clear I didn't do it on purpose. – said Byul. -I'll wash your clothes. I have an extra shirt, if you want ... - said Byul reaching Solar's shirt when Solar slaps her hand away and gave a maniac smile.

-Byuli, let's try to get alone, at least when we're with Wheein. –

-You gotta believe me. It was a mistake, I swear. Is true that I don't like you, but I would never do something like that. I'm not that petty. – and Solar only hum. Byul was feeling guilty so she went to the washroom and brought a detergent. -Solar. Try this. Wait, hang on. – Byul was cleaning Solar shirt and Solar only glared at her looking up due to the girl's tallness. -I heard neutral detergent gets soda stains out. –

-I see... well, the weather's not cold or anything. – said Solar looking at her shirt that now you can see thru. -We are in September, so it should dry soon. –

-Come on. I have an extra t-shirt, it's new, so you should be fine. I'm not forcing you to tale it, but you'll be uncomfortable wearing that, right? – said Byul pointing at the shirt and Solar nodded. -We're back! –

-Sorry we took long.

– said Solar patting Wheein's back.

-What about your shirt? –

-Byul let me borrow this one. – said Solar and Wheein just nodded. -You look upset. Were you worried? We didn't fight. You don't have to worry about it. – and Wheein only smiles. -<<She's calmer than I expected.>> -

....

Before the girls came back Wheein was anxious, she was walking in a circle, back and forth.

-It's been 30 minutes already. I wonder if something's wrong. They're not fighting, are they? No, no. – said Wheein to herself and imagen a scenario where Byul and Solar are fighting so she decides to go to the restroom where they were at. -<<I'm scared. I don't want to see them fighting. Why is it so quiet?>> - -You guys? – whispered Wheein and she saw the girl too close to each other. <<Whoa!! For a second, I thought they were kissing! Jung Wheein, you idiot!!!>> - said Wheein all red. -<<I'm glad they're not fighting.>> - and she left the place.

....

-Wait, so they are dating now? Weren't they like enemies before? – said, Winter.

-Yea, but that's how it goes. – said Soyeon. Wheein was hearing the girl's conversation and she was imagining Byul and Solar which is not true. -So, cliché. –

-Yay! We're done with the sketch. We're getting stuff. Done super-fast. We'll have more than enough time. – said Byul stretching her arms.

-Our midterms are coming up, so I thought it'd be better to work on it now. – Wheein said.

-How's your studying going, Wheein-ah? – and Wheein didn't know how to respond and only gave Solar a shy smile.

-She doesn't need good grades. She'll still have plenty of schools to choose from. Lets' just worry about ourselves. – said Byul and Solar smile.

-<<Since that day, I can tell they've gotten a little closer. I know it's not what I think it is. I know that it only looked that way. But why it hurts?>> - Wheein said to herself watching the girls.

Solar was in the library doing her work like always, alone until she saw a shadow on her book.

-I thought you might be here. – said Wheein with a smile.

-What about Byul? –

-Not sure... oh hey, what's that? – said Wheein looking at Solar's book. -Are you saving all the drawings done by the G/T students? That's so cool. -

-<<It's because I don't have the talent. >> -

- I didn't know we had a book like this. – said Wheein looking at an art book and Solar roll her eyes.

-Most of us are pretty similar skill-wise, so it comes down to how much information you can get. What to draw, what to avoid, different tips, things like that. – Wheein was about to say something when a G/T told her to move, and Solar looked at him.

-Do you draw insects for an assignment? He's the third one to check out that book today. – ask Solar.

-No. I heard professor park from k university is coming back next year and is going to be one of the judges for the G/T exam. He's very influential, and he's really into insects. As long as you paint some kind of insect, you can expect a high grade from him. Your painting doesn't even have to be good. That's pretty much the only thing I can think of for now. – said Wheein and Solar closed her book.

-Wheein, don't your feet hurt from standing? Come sit next to me. – Solar said patting the seat next to her.

-Okay. It's been so long since we got to spend time together, just the two of us. –

-Has it? I guess you're right. It's always been me, you, and Byul these days. If I could get into the G/T program, we could spend a lot more time together. don't you want to spend more time with me? Just think about it, Wheein. – Solar said, grabbing Wheein's hair. -We'd be in the same class; we wouldn't have to plan every time to meet up at the studio and you wouldn't have to go around looking for me like you did today. The more time we spend together, the more memories we'll make. Just the two of us. – and Solar put her hand above's Wheein's. ­-Wouldn't that be nice? –

-You also want to spend more time with me? – and Solar nodded. -Really? –

-I guess that means I should get into the program, huh? – whisper Solar in Wheein's ear.

-I... I... - Wheein was about to talk when Solar grabbed her and lead her to her due that some books were falling. She hugs Wheein and saw Lisa, on the other side of the bookshelf knowing that it was her who pushed the books on purpose.

-<<What the hell is her problem?>> -
