"Soa, annyeong!Soa turned around and faced a smiling Minhee. "Annyeong." She awkwardly greeted back. "Did you get my message from before?" "Ah nae." Soa replied. "Sorry I couldn't reply. My battery died right after so.." "Ah kwaenchanayo!" Minhee beamed. She seemed so full of energy, totally different from the cold aura she gave off before. Maybe she changed because she was in love is what Soa had thought. "I thought maybe I'd done something to annoy you.." Minhee muttered. "Like for instance, maybe you like Myungsoo too?" With wide eyes, Soa vigorously shook her head. "Ani, not at all!" She then felt a sharp pain in her heart. *Ouch, what was that?* Minhee looked relieved and it made Soa even more uneasy. *I'm fine with not liking L. These weird feelings are probably some delusion to begin with anyway.* She thought, slightly convincing herself. As if on cue, L was at the lockers. Minhee approached him without any anxiety nor embarrassment at all. "Good morning Myungsoo-ssi!" L acknowledged her and greeted back. Soa followed after and he walked off first. "But you know.." Soa started off. "If you keep making that face around him, he's bound to know even before you tell him." Minhee's eyes were obviously glued to L until he disappeared down the hall. She had this blissful look on her face while doing so. "Yeah, but even if all I manage to make him do is go 'huh?', I think I'd be happy anyway." Soa looked at Minhee in awe. *She really has fallen in love.*_____ "Hey, Lee Soa and Kim Myungsoo." The history teacher hollered before heading out. "I was told to tell you that you have to write a report about the camp." "Whaaat?" Soa whined. She frowned at Shinyoung and Minah. "I can't go with you guys.. Mianhae." The girls pat her in the back. "It's okay! We'll just go some other time! Bye bye!" They waved at each other and the two girls headed out of the classroom. Meanwhile, Hoya bumped shoulders with L as he proceeded to go out. "Lucky bastard." He scoffed. L smirked at him and went over to Soa and Minhee. "So lucky! You'll be alone with him!" Minhee quietly squealed, careful not to let anyone hear. Soa grumbled incoherent words, something about her wanting to go home and watch MuBank but the teachers just had to ruin if for her. No choice though. Their classmates had already vacated the classroom. Thus, leaving them both alone. She plopped down on the chair and L sat right across her. They sprawled paper in the desk and took out their pens. "Let's make this fast. You write half while I do the other." He said. Soa, for some reason, felt nervous. She didn't feel this anxious around L before. Maybe because of what happened back at the excursion, she had confused feelings. L was too busy writing to notice Soa so her eyes darted down to observe his scribbly yet neat handwriting as he wrote his name. Then she traced his angular hands. His broad shoulders. And up to his flawless face which was looking down slightly. Up to the glimpse of his eyes between the gaps of his fringe. Every small detail. It seemed to stand out in Soa's perspective. Which wasn't good. She noticed it just now. *He is my friend.. And the one Minhee likes..* She mentally tried to convince herself. In that same second, L could feel someone's gaze. He glanced up at her, startling her a bit. "What are you doing?" Soa opened her mouth but no words came out. L looked at the paper she was supposed to be writing on. It was blank. "Yah, why
