Cutting Strings

Ch. 2 ● Separation

The next days after the new year holiday is the most tiring days for Tiffany.

She has gone to California on her holiday to visit her family and now she is back and she has lot of classes to attend.

Nichkhun called her a lot since the new year's eve and there are almost hundred of chat messages from him. Tiffany tried very hard not to open it.

She really need to break up with him for good, even Taeyeon said so, but she doesn't want to settle it from the phone.

Now that she can meet him face to face, Tiffany feels her courage shrinks and goes missing.

Tiffany always come late to class so Nichkhun can't speak to her eventhough he waits everytime in front of her class.

She also tries to sneak between a lot of people when the class is over and goes straight back to her dorm.

But her time is over when she has been told by her friend that there will be a council meeting today. Apparently the famous gang wants to talk to them about something.

She is dreading to go.

Tiffany sighs heavily as she lays her head on the table, eyes looking at the man speaking on the front.

"Is the meeting today?" Asks Taeyeon from her right. Taeyeon is scribbling flowers on her notebook.

Tiffany nods her head.

"What are you going to do about him?" Ask a boy sitting from her left, Choi Minho. He is a very close friend of Tiffany and he is a member of the council.

They are currently in the big hall. There is a seminar for the sophomore year about some disease she doesn't really care about.

Tiffany fidgets her fingers in anxiety and bites her lower lips, "If he is going to talk with me, I'm seriously breaking up with him for good" she says in determination and sits up straighter on her seat.

"Not him" Minho chuckles and points to someone far behind them by tipping his head, "him".

At far left, and far behind from Tiffany, sitting on the very back of the class, is Oh Sehun. Not surprising to her that a girl sits beside him, speaking to him with a very cutesy voice. The surprising thing is how Sehun is staring intently at her, ignoring the talking girl.

He smiles when Tiffany locks eyes with him.

Tiffany never look away so quickly before that she hurts her neck, but she has something more important than her hurting neck "Is he looking at me? Why is he looking at me?" She asks Taeyeon in panic, shielding her face from Sehun's view with her long hair.

Taeyeon stiffles a laugh.

"He has been looking at you since the first day of class after new year holiday you dolt!" Minho knocks the girl beside him on the head gently and tries to hold his laugh too.

Minho knows Tiffany is famous for her kindness, positive activities, and mostly her beauty. Being a close friend to her means he is lucky.

As a close friend, he realizes that boys sneak glances at her whenever she's around. But after the holiday, one particular boy keep looking at her.

Oh Sehun is staring at her whenever they meet at the hallway, Minho become conscious at it. While the object of his interest doesn't realize because she is too busy avoiding her boyfriend.

Tiffany, on the contrary, is not as amused as her friends. She doesn't even dare to look at Minho because if she does Sehun can see her face too.

Honestly, Tiffany has thought of him all night after the new year's eve party. The famous, handsome, and charming Oh Sehun has kissed her, and it was awesome.
