50. Just the two of us

"I didn't say anything, I just asked a question, why are you so sensitive?" Chae-eun



"It's not fun... I won't end it as quickly as Jiyoon."



When I heard that, my head started spinning, and when the bell rang for class, Kim Chae-eun went to her seat as if nothing had happened, and Seung-kwan and I went to our seats in confusion, and I also wondered how the day had passed.
I came home after school without knowing anything and just blanked out all day, not hearing a word. I expected Kim Chae-eun and Park Ji-yoon to be on the same team, but when I actually heard it, I was dumbfounded.

"Ha... My head hurts. My head still hurts when I wake up. Just for today."
"I'll take a day off, but I'll have to avoid getting sick when I go to college." Yeoju



The university I wanted was the one my seniors, the kids, and Seungkwan all wanted, so naturally I wanted to go there too, and since my grades weren't enough, I was working hard to improve my grades from now on. 13 people did more volunteer work than I thought and also did well on their grades, so if I started studying from now on, I could go, but I... have to work harder than them, because of that one person, Kim Chae-eun.
I can't be shaken. I have to be mentally strong so I can win and go to college. I have to protect the 13. I have to protect Seung-kwan.



"If you can't study or keep up with people, you should at least take care of your grades."
"Okay, so come to your senses, Yeoju. You have to become stronger." Yeoju



"Bang bang-"

"Sister, aren't you going to school? If you don't go now, you'll be late. Seungkwan is here today."
"Hyung said something came up and went first. I'll wait. Come out." Chan



"...Go ahead. I'm going to be a little late today. I haven't finished getting ready yet."
"You shouldn't be late either. Junior Lee Chan, you go first." Yeoju



"It doesn't matter. There are a lot of stores there anyway, so getting a few penalty points is a big deal."
"There's no hit, so get ready quickly. I'll be at the playground." Chan



"Thump thump"



"I'm not stupid. I told you to just go, so why didn't you go and get penalized?" "Aren't you going to waste all the points you've accumulated so far?" Yeoju



"20 minutes later"



"Chan-ah, sorry for keeping you waiting so long. I took longer than expected to prepare." Yeoju



"It's okay, I just waited for a while because you didn't seem to be feeling well."
"I still have a long way to go until graduation, so it's okay to get a penalty point or two."
"I told you it would work out, so don't worry about it, okay?" Chan



After hearing Chan-i's words, Yeo-ju smiled brightly like a child.



"Let's hurry up and go to school. Unlike you, I don't have a store." Yeoju

"Then we should go slower~ It's your fault there's no store."
"I'm a bit late for work after a long time, so please understand haha" Chan



"Where are you talking? If I want to go to the same university as you, I need to get my grades first."
"I have to take care of it, but you want me to get a penalty? You're going to get kicked out." Yeoju



"Okay, run. I'm really fast. Follow me." Chan

"It's been a while since I ran, so I'm tired... But luckily I avoided being late."
"Chan-i, go well, listen well in class, don't fall asleep, and you'll get penalty points." Yeo-ju



"Yes, sister, you too, listen well in class. Don't get demerits." Chan



"Drrrrr"


"Seungkwan, shall we go out and play this weekend? I got movie tickets!"
"I'll buy you food, so let's hang out together. I'll buy dessert too." Chae-eun



Are you trying to seduce Seung-kwan with just food and movie tickets? Did Seung-kwan forget so quickly that he didn't like you? If I were you, I'd be too embarrassed to even talk to him, but he's really persistent. Of course Seung-kwan would reject him.



"Okay, I have some free time this weekend, so let's hang out, just the two of us." Seungkwan

Is the flow okay? And everyone, I created a public forum!
