The Second Option - Class 15

CLASS 15.



“Princess!” Jiahee’s choked her coffee because of that voice.

“Yah! You could kill me you know?” Jiahee voiced out her anger while wiping the spilled coffee on her table.

“Mian.. I just wanna make a surprise appearance. The class have ended rite?” G.O asked her.

Jiahee clears her throat. “Why are you here? Wanna ask me out once again?”

“Wow! How did you know? Guess you already saw what’s in my heart?” G.O teased her.

“Stop it. I can’t go out cuz I’ll have meeting after this about the club.” Jiahee replied with an annoyed face.

“The meeting won’t be that long till dinner rite? Would you go to a dinner with me tonight? It’s my company annual dinner and they wouldn’t let me in if I didn’t bring my partner.” G.O makes it clear. He really hopes that she will go with him.

“I guess Seungho can also be your partner ne?” 

G.O knew that she will use that excuse. “Aigoo.. To tell you the truth, if I went with Seungho again this year, they will call us as gay couple because he’s been with me to that dinner since 3 years ago. Please Jiahee? I would do anything just to make you say yes.” G.O shows his puppy eyes.

“You sure won’t give up till I say yes rite? I will, but on one condition.”

“Name it!” G.O seems excited. He will just do anything for this girl.

“Noona?” Both G.O and Jiahee turned to the front door.

“Yes? What can I do for you?” Jiahee asked when she sees him stuck there after seeing G.O.

“I’m sorry, am I disturbing you both?” Aron paused in doubt.

“Ah, no.. Just ignore me. As if I’m not exist.” G.O replied before Jiahee and he slowly walked out to give space for those two.

“Noona, my parents will be home today and they planned to have a party for my birthday tonight. They asked me to invite my new friends over so that they will get to know people around me too. Will you be there tonight?” 

“Wait, when is it?” Jiahee wanna make sure.

“Tonight. I really hope that you can make it. Please noona?” 
                                                 
“That.. I really wanted to but I’m sorry.. Really sorry because I’ve already promised to be on my friend’s dinner tonight.” Jiahee hesitated.

“I guess I’m just a little too late.. It’s okay, don’t worry noona.. But you can still come after the dinner.” Aron is still hoping. 

“I.. I can’t make sure to be there.. I’m really sorry Aron.” It’s hard for her to say no to him but she has no choice, she promised to be with G.O first.

“Well, it’s not your fault noona, don’t apologize. So, I’ll get going now. See you again noona.” Aron ends his word with a very bright smile. He walked away.

“Aron!” Jiahee calls him before he lost from her side.

“Ne?” 

“Saengil chukahae! I’ll make sure to buy you something later.” 

Aron just smile back and continue walking away. Jiahee sighing.

“So you refused his invitation just because of me?”Jiahee’s taken aback.

“You’re still here?” she asked him.

“Wae? Did I say that I’ll go home? How can I just go without saying anything to you?” G.O replied.

“Aish.. You’re annoying.”

“I’m annoying but you still want to be with me rite?”

Jiahee pushed him a bit. “Stop it, the meeting will start now. I need to go so I’ll meet you tonight.”
Jiahee took her bag and files and pushed G.O out of her office.

“I’ll see you tonight princess!” he shouted a bit. “Hush!” Jiahee turned and walked to the music room.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Minhyun! Did you see Ren anywhere?”

“Me? I’m searching for him too. Where did he go?” Minhyun replied while looking round.

“His bag also not here. Do you think that he has returned home already?” Baekho’s looking around Ren’s seat.

“Molla.. Baekho-ah, did you two fought?”

“No we’re not. But he seems different these days, I don’t know what’s wrong with him.” Baekho replied and sat in front of Minhyun.

“Think back, did you do something that he doesn’t like?” Minhyun closed his text book and pack his bag.

“I’m not so sure..  How about you?” Baekho asked back.

“I don’t.. Wait! Miss Junghye! You know where her house is rite?”
“Yea, waeyo? Ah! Did you think what I think?” Baekho quickly stands up. Followed by Minhyun.

“Yes I am. Let’s go to her house now!” they both rushed there.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Junghye’s step stopped before she arrived in front of her house. She saw a guy with a hoodie sitting with his head on his knees. She walked in slowly and paused in front of him. ‘Is he sleeping?’

She bent her body down a bit. “Excuse me? May I help you?”

She wakes him up. He lift up his head, gently rubbed his eyes with his fingers. “Ren?”

“Miss Junghye? I’m waiting for you..” he replied.

“How long have you been here? Why didn’t you just meet me at the school? Come inside first. It’s hot out here.” Junghye unlocked the door and ask him in.

“Here.” Junghye hands him a glass of orange juice. Ren thanked her and take a sip.

“Miss..” Ren clears his throat. “Have you heard Minhyun’s song yet?” he asked.

“Minhyun? He asked me to but I still didn’t have time to listen to it. Wae?”

“Nothing.. Did Baekho..” he hesitated. Junghye moves her eyebrows, signaling him to finished his word.

“Baekho gave you something rite? Like chocolates and cupcakes?”

Junghye chuckled. “You’re cute. Why are you asking those things?”

“Ah, I’m sorry miss. Actually, I have something to give you too..” he search for something inside his bag.

“You too?”

“Of course, take this miss.. I made it myself..” Ren took out a small container and opened it for Junghye.

“Wow! Butter cookies! You know how to make this?”

“Noona don’t eat it!” Baekho suddenly comes from nowhere.

“Why did you do this Ren?” Minhyun comes closer and took the cookies from Ren’s hand harshly.

Junghye looks puzzled. She stands up. “ What’s wrong with you both?” she look at both Minhyun and Baekho.

“Noona, you don’t understand. Just leave it to us.” Baekho comes closer too.

“Why are you guys here? I thought you guys are busy. How did you find me?” Ren finally speak up.

“Minki-ah, listen. She’s not her. She didn’t have anything to do with you or your brother. It’s already over.” Baekho tries to persuade Ren.

“You said it like that because you’ve been in her spell just like how Seungcheol does. She might do something similar to you and Minhyun.. She already separate Joon and Dahyun, remember?” Ren’s expression suddenly changed from innocent and adorable to malicious and full of hatred.

“Wha.. What is this?” Junghye’s feeling uncomfortable. She knows something is not rite somewhere.

“Miss just stay there, I will protect you.” Minhyun stands right in front of her, facing the unconscious Ren.

“Minhyun! You’re protecting her instead of me?” Ren’s voice is higher this time.

“Minki-ah, stop it. I said she’s not her! How else should I explain to you that she already died? You did it, you gave her the poisoned cookies, she ate it and she died! Get a hold of yourself and get back to your sense Choi Minki!” Baekho looks straight into his eyes.

Ren’s eyes teary. “Where is Seungcheol?” he asked in a low tone. Baekho hugged him.

“You might lose him but you have us. Me and Minhyun will always be by your side. Remember this Ren, we will never leave you alone. I'm sorry, I will spent more time with you after this..”

Minhyun turned to Junghye. “I’m sorry for this mess. Ren actually has a twin, Choi Seungcheol, but he died a year ago because of a girl named Jinah. She’s your age and she studied at your college. She said that she will be a teacher at our school once she finished her education major course there. Because of too many similarities between you and her, Ren’s trauma has come again. For the time being, Baekho and I will not see you. It’s for your both own good. I hope you understand miss.”

Junghye’s become numb by shocked. How can she even imagine that Ren has come though so much pain? Now she knows, Ren actually afraid of losing Minhyun and Baekho. He already gone through that stage before and he just wanna take a good care of them both.

“Kwenchana, just take a look at him and make sure he’s alright. I’m sorry for his lose.” Junghye said to Minhyun.

“Miss, I will come meet you again when he’s back to his npormal condition. Just wait for me till then.” Minhyun replied and took Ren’s bag with him.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The bell rang. “Jiahee! Your date is here!” Dahyun said and quickly runs to open the door.

“Hello Miss Dahyun, would you let me pick up my date please?” 

“Ahh~ Lucky Jiahee.. Yes you can but what will I get?” Dahyun tries to play with him.

“Seriously? Do you think I will take Jiahee and leave you alone? Yours will come too after this.” G.O replied while taking out his phone.

“Wait! Don’t do it!” Dahyun quickly took his phone. G.O chuckled. 

“Why are you so nervous? I didn’t even said anything yet.” Dahyun pouts.

“So may I have my phone back miss? Or do you want to call him by mine?” G.O teased her.

“Here! Take this and don’t even think of doing anything that will make him come here.” Dahyun put the phone onto his hand.

“Why didn’t you ask him in?” Jiahee showed up.

“Dahyun don’t wanna let me in. She said that I can’t see you until you’re done.” G.O replied and wink to Dahyun. Dahyun widened her eyes.

“Jiahee, take a good care of yourself. Call me ASAP if he ever do something.” G.O laughs upon Dahyun’s word to Jiahee.

“I know, you’re the one who should take care dear. You’re alone. Call me if you need anything.” Jiaheereplied with a smile.

“No, she won’t be alone long.” G.O whispered but Dahyun can hear it.

“Yah! Stop it!”

“Aigoo.. Stop teasing her, or I wouldn’t go with you.” Jiahee look intensely into G.O eyes.

“Arasso.. I’ll do anything for my princess. Stay safe Dahyunnie, I’ll take her home on time.” G.O said and walked Jiahee to his car.

“So, where do you wanna go princess?” G.O asked as they both get in the car.

“I thought we gonna go for your company’s annual dinner?” Jiahee puzzled.

“I know, but if you wanna go to that birthday party, I will go with you..”

“What do you mean?” Jiahee asked.

The Second Option - Class 14


CLASS 14.



“Dahyun! Open the door!” Jiahee knocked the door repeatedly. She really is worried about Dahyun.

“Yah! Are you okay?” she touched Dahyun’s forehead rite after her friend get out from toilet.

“I don’t know. I feel dizzy since last nite.” Dahyun replied.

“I don’t think you can go to work like this. Come I help you get to your room.” Jiahee helps her walk.

“Jiahee..”

“No, don’t talk much. I will tell about your condition now to the headmaster. Just rest for now.” Jiahee said before Dahyun could say any words.

“I need to go now. But don’t worry, I’ll ask someone to look after you. What do you want to eat?” Jiahee asked her.

“No. I don’t think I have an appetite now. I’ll just sleep. Don’t worry about me. Just go to school first.” Dahyun replied.

Jiahee looks at her for a while. Her worried eyes can’t be hidden anymore. “Dahyunie.. Quickly call me if anything happens. I promise I’ll return home early today. And call me if you need anything.” Jiahee said and get ready to go to work.

“Jiahee..” Dahyun calls her again. Jiahee get closer.

“Please.. Don’t tell Lee Joon about this.” Dahyun begged her. Jiahee just smiles. “Don’t think too much. Just sleep okay?” Jiahee said before leaves.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Jiahee unni..”

“Yeah Junghye? Anything I could help you?”

“No I just wanna asked about Dahyun unni. Why does the president ask me to take her classes for today?”

“She didn’t feeling well. In fact I’m still worry about her. Usually Joon will help me in time like this.” Jiahee explained.

“Why don’t you ask Seungho oppa to go see her now? I think Seungho oppa has no classes until recess” Junghye suggested.

“Lucky you said that. I just thought about asking JR to look after her. So now I will go ask Seungho.. Thanks Junghye!” Jiahee go to find Seungho at once.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Hyung, I need your help” Joon suddenly appears from nowhere as soon as Seungho arrived at the parking lot.

“What is it?” Seungho asked back.

“Dahyun is sick rite? She becomes like that because she didn’t take her meals. And she will refuse to eat at time like this. The only thing that she will eat is chicken porridge. Usually I made her one but I don’t think she wanted to see me now so can I passes this to you?”

Seungho looked at him for a while. And he nodded. “I guess I should help you for her own good.”

“Thanks hyung.” Joon’s relieved a sigh.

“But how did you know? Jiahee asked me to not letting you know but you found it out?”

“It was Junghye. She called me and explained Dahyun's condition. I just can’t ignore it so that’s why I’m asking for your help.”

Seungho smiles. “You can count on me. I think you should go now before others found out that you’re here.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Miss Junghye. I’m sorry. So Sorry.” Minhyun chase after her on her way to class.

“No. Don’t apologize. I’m the one to blame too.. Come let’s go to class together.” Junghye replied with a sweet smile. But still, Minhyun didn’t feel good about it.

“No, I wouldn’t feel good. How can I acted that way to you that day.” Minhyun’s lower his head.

“It’s okay, that was just a misunderstanding rite? Make sure you didn’t do it again.”

“Okay but miss, will you come to the instrument room again today? I promise I will wait for you no matter what happens. I need to let you hear my song as my apology, will you?”

“I would like to but I can’t promise to be there today. Maybe next time?” Junghye rejected his request nicely. Minhyun face is full of disappointment.

“But I will treat you for lunch tomorrow, okay?” Junghye tries to cheer him up.

“Really? That will be great. Thanks Miss!”

------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Okay I think that’s all for today.. Sorry if I can’t be as good as Dahyun unni but I hope you guys can get something today. And if you wanna ask anything just come and see me..”

Before Junghye ends her words Ren suddenly stands up and walk closer to her. “Thank you.” And he just left the class like that. Junghye's puzzled. She froze for a while.

“I’m sorry noona. Thanks for today.” Baekho comes to the front and apologize on Ren’s behalf. Then he chased after him.

“He usually not like that. But don’t worry Miss, just ignore him.” Minhyun then comes forward too.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jiahee’s a bit shocked when she arrived home. “Dahyunie?” she calls for her.

“Ah, welcome back Jiahee.” Dahyun seems much better than this morning.

“Yah, what did you give her Seungho?” Jiahee asked Seungho. Seungho chuckled.

“I told you just leave it all to me. I can handle this girl.”

“Annyeong~” G.O voice can be clearly heard from upstairs.

“And why are you here?” Jiahee asked as soon as G.O steps into the room.

“I just stopped by to deliver this. That guy asked me to buy some fruits after I finished my work.” G.O pointed to Seungho.

“But if you don’t like me being here then I will go now.” G.O word makes Jiahee shocked.

“Byunghee! Can you not being too harsh for a day?” Jiahee asked him.

“Harsh what? I’m saying the truth rite?” G.O teased her again.

“Ugh! Stress! Dahyun let me change place with you for a while.” Seungho and Dahyun laughs seeing both of them.

“You guys get closer rite? What a nice sight.” Dahyun said and Jiahee widen her eyes.

“And you two too? I guess you’re getting closer today?” G.O replied with a naughty face.

“Most of all I’m glad that you’re feeling better now Dahyun. I’m worried much.” Jiahee hugged Dahyun.

“Can I hug them too?” G.O asked and Seungho pushed him away.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Do you think Dahyun will be able to forget Lee Joon?” G.O started the conversation as they both washing the dishes in the kitchen.

“Why are you asking that? It takes time.”

“I asked because.. Seungho seems interested in her.” G.O replied.

“And I think Dahyun too but her heart still clings onto Joon that’s why she still can’t get over him.” Jiahee continued.

“How about you?” G.O’s question shocked her.

“What me?” Jiahee asked back.

“Who’s in your heart? Do I have the chance to be in it?” The confession from G.O might not be too much but she able to understand what he means.

“I don’t have experience in things like this so I don’t know.” Jiahee answers but she avoid meeting G.O’s eyes, worried that he might able to see what her truth thought is.

“Is it him?” G.O asked.

“Ne?” Jiahee’s taken aback.

“The boy that nite, is it him in your heart?”

“I.. No.. Can we not talk about this now?” Jiahee replied and quickly finished her works and leaves the kitchen.

“You can lie to me. But your eyes couldn’t. I see it all Lee Jiahee.”

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Oppa.. Gomawo..”

“For what? I’m doing this because I love it. No need to thanks me.” Seungho replied with a smile.

“I think I will excuse myself for now. Get enough sleep and please.. Don’t skip meals again.” He continued.

“Will you come again tomorrow?” Dahyun asked.

“Why? Are you missing me already?” Seungho teased. She doesn’t know why but she feels that the spot that has been left by Joon seems to be filled when he’s around.

“I’m just asking..I can’t wait to go to school tomorrow..” Dahyun find an excuse.

“Or do you want me to stay with you tonight?”

“Stop it. Or is it you who didn’t wanna leave me now?” Dahyun replied followed by laughs by Seungho.

“Okay I’ll leave for real now. I’ve set the reminder on my phone on each meal time so that I can check on you. So make sure you don’t skip your meals anymore.” Seungho’s sweet warned.

“Urm..oppa?” Dahyun calls him once again before he left.

“Yes?”

“About what you asked that nite.. I think I can consider it now.” Dahyun said slowly.

“Oh that. No don’t take it seriously. It just slipped out so suddenly. Just take care of yourself first.. I’m going now..” Seungho ends the conversation and left.

She doesn’t know what the real intention of Seungho is but with that answer, she feels a bit disappointed. She hopes for better answer by Seungho. Because she started to change her mind now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

‘Please, don’t be too close to Minhyun.’

Junghye’s taken aback with that kind of note that morning.

“Noona! Morning!” Baekho greets her cheerily.  Junghye force herself to smile happily.

“Morning. You’re early today.”

“Yeah I’m always this early.” Baekho proud of himself.

“Did you..” Junghye hesitated.

“What noona?”

“No, forget it. Minhyun’s here yet?”

“I don’t know, I haven’t been to class yet. Ah, I brought you this.” Baekho takes out something from his bag.

“Take this as an apology on Ren’s behalf yesterday.” Baekho gives her a small box.

“Cupcake? Thanks a lot. I love this.” Junghye replied.

“Glad you like it. I forced my sis to make it last night and I decorated it. Don’t forget to eat that soon. Bye noona!”

The Second Option - Class 13


CLASS 13



“Minhyun! Where are you going?” Ren asked as he see Minhyun rushing somewhere.

“I.. I’m searching for someone. Can you go eat alone?” Minhyun replied and continue walked away from Ren.

“Yah!” Ren shouted but Minhyun has already far from him.

“Aigoo. Baekho is missing since this morning and now Minhyun too? Now I should eat alone? Aish..” Ren’s mumbling alone but then his eyes spotted Aron. He walks closer to him and smiles widely.

“What?” Aron puzzled seeing him like that.

“Are you alone? Let’s go eat together?” Ren’s showing hopeful expression. Aron’s thinking for a while.

“Minki, sorry but I can’t. I have something with Miss Jiahee so you go first?” Aron said and walked away too.

“Ugh! Just why is everyone busy rite now?” Ren sat on the table. Then JR passed by him.

“JR!” He shouted. JR stopped and looked at him.

“You’re alone?”

“Why?” Ren’s thinking for a while.

“No, nothing.” He knows what JR’s answer will be.

‘He’ll be with his beloved noona. I need to find out why Baekho and Minhyun is too busy for me.’

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Minhyun?” Junghye slowly stepped into the room.

“Miss you’re here?”

“Yeah. Glad to see you here again. I’m worried something has happen to you because yesterday..”

“Forget about yesterday miss.”  Minhyun cuts before she could end her words.

“Wha.. Why?” Junghye puzzled.

“You didn’t come. But it’s okay. Since yesterday is your last day with Joon here.” He explained without turning to Junghye.

“Minhyun! You..” Junghye tried to explain the real situation but she cancels it when she see he has no interest in her explanation. Junghye follows Minhyun to the piano.

“Noona?” A familiar voice comes from the front door. Both Junghye and Minhyun looking at each other.

“Ah, did I disrupt you both?” Baekho comes in.

“No you didn’t. Is there anything I can help you?” Junghye asked him.

“Ya, what are you doing here?” Minhyun stills in the bad mood.

“Uhm.. Sorry Minhyunnie. I just wanna give this to Junghye noona since yesterday I promised her.” Baekho hands a bar of chocolate to Junghye.

“Ne? Kamsahamnida~” Junghye tries to hide her shocked upon seeing that same chocolate bar with what she got yesterday morning.

“You promised her?” Minhyun seems to feel strange about them both.

“Nothing. Just I asked him to buy me chocolate yesterday.” Junghye replied. Baekho looks at her.

“Noona, why did you lie?” Baekho asked her.

“And what’s with this noona thing?” Minhyun shows his jealousy now.

“Yah Hwang Minhyun why are you like this today?” Baekho’s voice a bit higher.

“So she didn’t meet me yesterday and ends up seeing you somewhere?” Minhyun asked him.

“GUYS STOP THIS!” Junghye comes in between them and pushed them both away.

“Oh so you left her alone yesterday and you say that she didn’t come? You know how long she waited for you yesterday? And did you know she walks back home in rain? You didn’t cuz you’re always like this. Be matured now Minhyun.” Baekho said everything and walked away from the room.

Minhyun’s taken aback by Baekho’s word. He look at Junghye. “I.. I think I should go now.” Junghye walks away.

“Why didn’t you tell me the truth?” Minhyun runs after her and holds her arm.

“Minhyun?” Ren suddenly comes. Minhyun released Junghye’s arm. “Sorry, I need to go now.” Junghye runs quickly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I’m vervous!” Jiahee whispers to Dahyun.

“Ya, stop it now or I’ll just let you go alone.” Dahyun threatened her.

“Okay I’ll calm down but promise me you wouldn’t leave me no matter whatever happens ne?” Jiahee’s begging. Dahyun burst into laugh seeing her bestfriend like that.

“Don’t worry babe. I’m here.” Dahyun replied and she leads Jiahee into the restaurant.

G.O’s eyes widened seeing stunning Jiahee in light blue dress fits perfectly with her blue butterfly hairpin. Seungho looked at him and hit him slightly. “Closed your mouth now.”

“Uhm sorry. I’m immersed in the dazzling you. So you finally come. Thanks Jiahee.” G.O really shows his gratitude that nite. And Jiahee just smile shyly.

Seeing both of them like that, Dahyun cough a bit to get some attention too. Seungho understands and he comes closer to her. “I guess he didn’t realize about your appearance sweetie. You’re stunning too.”

“Ah, mianhe Dahyun. Of course you too. Thanks for coming tonight.” Only then G.O realize that Dahyun is there too.

Dahyun’s chuckled. “Okay enough with this. Shouldn’t we be seated?”

“Ne. Of course.” G.O and Seungho leads them to the table. 

Not long after they have their dinner, Jiahee’s phone beeping. She took out her phone. G.O’s seem shocked for something.

“You. You still use this?” G.O asked while pointing to Jiahee’s phone chain. Jiahee’s puzzled and just nodded blankly. Both Seungho and Dahyun focused on them too.

“I mean.. I have it too.” G.O showed his phone chain.

“What? Isn’t that couple chain? Jiahee since when?” Dahyun suspecting something is going on without her knowing.

“Ne? Couple what?” Jiahee still blank. She still didn’t get it.

Seungho laughs. “Jiahee you know you’re cute like this? Dahyun asked about your chain since you have the key-shaped chain and G.O has the lock-shaped one.”

Jiahee looked at the chain. She finally gets it. “You gotta explain why do you have that chain.” She looks at G.O fiercely.

“Err. Sorry. Do you still remember when your phone was with us? I changed your phone chain to make it suit with mine. Mian~” G.O said while smiling wide.

“But you still used it until now means that you like me too?" G.O teased her while both Seungho and Dahyun chuckled. Jiahee feels that her face is hot and of course she's blushing!

“Dahyun, will you go somewhere with me?” Seungho suddenly asked. Jiahee looked at Dahyun and making an eye sign to make her stay.

“Urm.. Where do we go?” Dahyun tries to not looking at Jiahee and turns to Seungho.

“Somewhere. Come!” Seungho quickly stands up and grabbed Dahyun’s arm.

“Ah. Wait!” Dahyun followed him unknowingly.

“Dahyun!” Jiahee shouted a bit.

“Why? Are you scared being alone with me?” G.O teased her again.

“Why should I? I just.. Worried..” G.O burst into laugh. “Don’t worry princess. Come follow me somewhere too. Do you think Seungho will leave us just like this? I know where he goes so come with me.” G.O and Jiahee slowly walking through the riverside.

“You know what. This was actually planned by Seungho.” G.O said after them both being silent for a while.

“Seungho?” Jiahee asked.

“Not fully but the part where he asked Dahyun to go somewhere. I heard about Dahyun too. And Seungho just wanna let her forget her problems.”

“And you?” Jiahee asked again.

“Me? I just wanna let them know about the phone chain.” G.O smiles.

“But why? I mean why are you giving me that..”

“That key-shaped? You know, my heart has been stolen and I wouldn’t open it to anyone except the one that holds the key to my heart.” Jiahee’s shocked.

“Do you like cookies?” G.O pretends like he didn’t realize the shocked expression in Jiahee’s eyes and just acted normal. Jiahee still froze looking into his eyes.

“Princess?” G.O waves his hand in front of her. Jiahee’s back to her sense. “ I’m sorry..”

“Kwenchana. Do you like cookies? I’m gonna buy it.” G.O pointed to the small booth not far from them.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I hope they’ll get closer.” Seungho voiced out.

“I knew it. This was your intention when you asked me out.” Dahyun replied and her eyes locked at the river in front of them. But she didn’t realize that Seungho’s eyes are locked on her.

“Beautiful.”

“What?” Dahyun turns to him.

“No. I said this river is beautiful.” Seungho clears his throat. “Are you okay?” he wanna ask that question since the first day he heard about the rumors but only now he has the chance to do so.

“Ne? Me.. I think I’m okay now.” Dahyun smiles. Tries to hide her true feelings. Yeah, breaking up with someone you’ve been with for about 8 years isn’t a simple thing.

“Lee Dahyun.. If I said that I wanna be with you, replacing him in your heart, what will you say?”
 Seungho holds Dahyun’s shoulder. The sincerity in his words can be clearly see from his eyes.

“But this is too soon.” Dahyun moves her eyes somewhere else. She can’t look at those hopeful eyes.

“Ah. I’m sorry Dahyun. Forget about it. I shouldn’t said something like that at time like this.”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Thank you. Please come again.” The girl at the booth thanked both of them.

Not long after they left the booth, someone bumped into Jiahee. G.O holds her to prevent her from falling.

“Ah why are you in my way?” That woman voiced out her anger. She touched her shoulder.

“Sorry miss but you’re the one who ran into her. You should apologize, not blaming her.” G.O said to her. Jiahee holds G.O’s arm. “No it’s okay. She might be in rush.”

Just then a boy comes to them. “Noona are you alright?” he asked.

Jiahee knows that voice well. It was.. “Aron?” she looks at him.

“Here you are. Come.” The woman ordered Aron and she slowly walked away from them.

“I’m sorry.” Aron said to both of them and followed the woman. “Noona wait for me!”

“You happen to know that boy?” G.O asked when he see Jiahee’s eyes are still on him.

“Yeah. He is my student.” Jiahee still can’t believe what she just sees. Aron is having relationship with that woman? Or is that woman is his sister?

The Second Option - Class 12


CLASS 12



“Kyaaaaaa~ What should I do?? Should I answer it? Dahyunnieeee!” Jiahee rushed into Dahyun’s room. It’s maybe just a simple phone call from G.O but she doesn’t know why she feels nervous and don’t know what to do. She wants to answer but she just can’t talk to him directly.

“Why?” Dahyun puzzled.

“This! Please answer it for me??” Jiahee hands her phone to Dahyun.

“G.O?” Dahyun asked her back after take a look at the phone screen. Jiahee’s nodded and her face full of hope. “Why me?” Dahyun’s voice a bit high. “Hyunie pleaseeee? Just once?” Dahyun just can’t say no anymore upon seeing Jiahee’s puppy eyes. “Aigoo.. Arasso..”

“Yeobseyo?”

“Ne. Yeobseyo. Is this Jiahee?”

“I..” Dahyun looks at Jiahee. Jiahee just nodded. Ask her to just say yes. “I.. no.. I am Dahyun. Wait I’ll pass the phone to Jiahee.” Dahyun quickly put the phone to Jiahee’s ear and she giggled. Jiahee hits Dahyun’s arm.

“Jiahee?” on the other side still calm waiting for Jiahee to answer.

“Ne.. I am.. What is it?” Jiahee managed to control her voice and her hand still holding Dahyun’s arm.

“Am I disturbing you? I’m sorry.. I will call you later.” He said because Jiahee’s taking time to reply him.

“No.. No you’re not. I’m the one who should apologize.” She can hear G.O’s chuckled on the other side.

“Okay, this seems awkward. I just hope that we can talk comfortably just like out texts before.”

“Sorry..” Jiahee apologize again.

“Please stop. There will be more space between us if you keep saying sorry for everything. And I won’t let it be.”

“I’ll try too.. So, what is it?” Jiahee seems more comfortable now.

“Actually.. I don’t know how to say this but do you remember that I’ve once asked you out and you asked me to set the date.. So, are you free tomorrow nite?”

“Me? I.. Just us?” Jiahee wanted to make sure.

“What if just the two of us?” he tries.

Jiahee looks at Dahyun. Hoping for an answer. “What? Just say yes~” Dahyun whispers.

“Dahyun wouldn’t let me go alone so I should bring her together. Can I?” Jiahee replied and Dahyun widened her eyes. Jiahee covered Dahyun’s mouth to avoid her from saying anything.

“Well, if that’s the case then I’ll bring my Seungho too~” he replied.

After apologizing him, Jiahee agree to go out having dinner with him tomorrow nite.

“Ya! What are you doing? That will be a great date for you both!” Dahyun voice out.

“Hyunnie.. I still didn’t know him well and that will be really awkward if I’m going just with him.. So you and Seungho will be something in between when I don’t know what to do or say.” Jiahee explain while smiling wide to make Dahyun agree with her plan.

“So you’re saying that we both are just things for you guys to talk about? Well, if that will make you happy then I can’t say anything more.. But I think I’m the one that will be left with Seungho tomorrow.” Dahyun sighed.

“Don’t worry.. I know you.. No matter how long you will be with him, I can guarantee that you know about what will you talk and do with him..” Jiahee teased her. Dahyun wanted to hit her but Jiahee quickly runs far from her.

“And Miss Dahyun, don’t forget 8 p.m tomorrow. You need to help me with the dress tomorrow, arasso?” Jiahee shouted from the door.

“Yes, mam~ Everything for you.. Now go and sleep.. You sure need enough sleep tonight to avoid eye bag for your first unofficial date with him rite?” Dahyun showing naughty face to her. Jiahee move closer and Dahyun covers her face with a photo frame in her hand.

“Dahyun?” Jiahee’s voice a bit low.

“Ne?”

“You’re holding this photo form the beginning?” Jiahee’s eyes still locked on the photo. Dahyun’s then realized that Jiahee has found it out. She quickly throws the frame into the box on her bed. “No, I’m just cleaning my room.. You know..” she tries to find an excuse but her eyes tells different.

“It’s okay Hyunnie.. I know it takes time.. Don’t hide it from me..” Jiahee hold her shoulders.

“I.. I’m just missing him.. But don’t worry.. I’ll be okay..” Dahyun smiles.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

“He has such a nice voice but I wonder why doesn’t he wait for me..” Junghye talked alone. Minhyun’s voice that evening still replaying inside her. She suddenly remembers about the gift that her student gave her this morning.

‘Wait, Minhyun comes with an apple. So who gave me this chocolate? If he was to see me then why would he put that chocolate from the beginning? And Baekho! How did he know about this chocolate?’

Junghye recalls back what happen that evening after Joon left her.

‘Where is Minhyun? I thought he’s gonna wait for me?’ Junghye wanders around the room. ‘Maybe he’ll come back. I’ll wait for a while then..’

“Annyeong?” someone is there.

“Minhyun?” Junghye asked and walked to the front door.

“Ah, miss.. Why are you still here?” he asked.

“It’s you.. No, I’m waiting for someone. And you?” Junghye replied.

“Me? I’m taking this.” He shows a Biology text book to her. “Ren forgot his so I come back to take it for him.”

“What a good friend you are.. By the way, have you seen Minhyun somewhere?” Junghye asked him.

“Well.. No actually.. He is the first one to come out from the class after the bell rang. And when I see this room was still open, I thought he was here that’s why I stopped by. So you’re waiting for him?”

“I don’t know whether he’ll come back or not.” Junghye looked around.

“I know him.. If he’ll come back, he will leave his bag and his music sheets here. If not then he already has left.” Baekho replied while walking to the piano.

“So I think he already left?” Junghye said while they both looking at the piano. Baekho then nodded.

“Will you be okay by yourself Miss?” Baekho asked, worried about her since its already late and seems like nobody else beside them is there.

“Don’t worry. I’ll be okay.” Junghye replied while taking her files and bag. But suddenly the light goes off! Junghye’s shocked and she screamed a bit but she quickly covers her mouth.

“Miss Junghye? I don’t think you will be okay alone like this.. Let me help you.” Baekho comes in again and searched for Junghye in the dark. “I.. I’m here..” Junghye’s giving signal so that Baekho will find the direction to her.

“I got you.” He holds her hand tightly and leads her out of the room. She just followed him silently. That time he doesn’t look like a student but more like a man who can do anything to protect a girl.

“This room needs to be lock right? Give me the keys. I’ll do it.” Junghye hands the key to him and just stand beside him.

“Okay, done!”

“Thanks.. I don’t know if I can do all of this without you here.” Junghye replied.

“It’s just a responsibility. I can’t just leave you alone when I know that you need help.” Baekho replied back.

“Baekho..” she calls him. She actually searched for his arms to hold to.

“Are you scared? I will be here until everything is okay. Come follow me.” He holds her hand again and he leads her once again.

“Okay, now we’re here!” Baekho happily said when they both arrived at the front gate.
“I shouldn’t show this side of me.. I am the one who should protect you..” Junghye said.

Baekho look into her eyes with a smile. “I’ve said it before.. No matter what age you’re in but you’re still a girl. And as a boy I should protect you. Don’t ever think that it’s a trouble to me anymore. I will be at guilt if I just leave you alone.”

“Well, okay.. I am thanking you as a normal girl, not a teacher.. So you can go back home now.. It’s becoming late now..” Junghye smiles.

“No.. I said that I will be with you until everything is okay. Still, you’re not safe now because its look like it will rain in a bit. May I walk you home?” Junghye can’t believe that he still don’t wanna let her go alone. She widens her eyes. “Well don’t think of me as a student. Think of me as a normal boy okay noona?”

She knows that she can’t get away. She just agree to let him send her home. Just like what Baekho said before, the rain pours on their way back. Because of the rain, Baekho dragged Junghye with him. They both took shelter under a tree.

“Miss.. Take this..” Baekho touched Junghye’s shoulder and gave his jacket to her.

“Thanks but I don’t need this..” Junghye rejects and turned around.

“You need to wear this because your blouse is wet and this can cover.” He said and put the jacket on Junghye. Now she got his point. Because her clothes are all wet then the trace of her inner clothes will be visible. Without turning to Baekho she thanked him and holds the jacket. The rain then stopped and they walked together until they reached at Junghye’s house.

“Thanks again for everything..” Junghye said gives the jacket back to Baekho.

“My pleasure.. Maybe you can repay me by giving me the highest mark on the exam?” he teased.

“Never!” they both laughed.

“I think I better go now.. Don’t forget to eat the chocolate because it will help with your mood. No more moody days..” Baekho said before walked away.

“Wait! Chocolate? What?” Junghye puzzled.

“You didn’t get it? No.. Nothing.. I will buy you chocolate then.. Take care noona! Bye~” Baekho replied and runs.

“Wait.. Did he give me the chocolate? Now I can’t see him as a student anymore..”
