When the school day ended, I waited outside for you.

I suddenly heard loud shouting inside the school and people running.

Curious, I stood up and looked towards the school. 

I saw Yeonjun running angrily towards me.

I was frozen in fear until I heard you shout.

'Beomgyu! Run!'

I don't waste a second before I started to run as quickly as I could towards my house.

I'm not as quick as Yeonjun so I heard him catching up.

I glanced back.

I see you push Yeonjun away.

He stumbles.

He falls.

You kept running.

You grabbed my hand as we both raced off towards my house.

You pulling me to go faster.

We made it safely inside the house.

We shut the door.

We stood in the entryway panting as we both tried to catch our breaths.

When I looked up I saw my sister staring at my hand.

I realized your hand was holding mine.

I shook my hand loose.

My sister gave us a curious look.

'Why were you running?' she asked.

I pale and Taehyun answers for me.

'We were running a race.' he said.

'Beomgyu won.' he added with a smile.

She smiled and walked away.

I gave Taehyun a look.

'I'll explain later.' he stated and walks towards my sister.

I am perplexed by you Taehyun.

And I shake my head before walking with you.
