KANG SOORA'S POV

There's Lu Yan...." Jeha said as we had our meal at the cafeteria...." He's with Hana..." I said in a low voice as they started walking towards us.." Does it bother you?" Jeha asked as I glared at him.." of course it does but it's not like Iam going to throw her into the swimming pool this time round as well.* I said as he burst into laughter.....loud enough for everyone to turn their attention to us..." What's funny?" Lu Yan asked as he and Hana say at our table...." It's just that...." Jeha said as I rushed to cover his mouth.." It's nothing." I said as Jeha pushed my palm away from his mouth...

" How are preparations for your birthday going?" Lu Yan asked as we walked out the cafeteria.." Well they are okay...there only one thing bothering me..." I said," What is it?* He asked...." It's something I must say to some one that day...o don't know if I should say it or not" I replied..." But I want do say it." I added as I stared at him.." I have to say it." I added as he stared at me clulessly..." What are you going on about?" He asked as I smiled and wrapped my arm around his shoulder....." You will find out soon." I said as we left.

HANA'S POV

" Ahhhhhhhhhh..." I accidentally spoke out loud after recalling that time on the cafeteria....." Can you please keep silent...." The librarian said as I apologized and went back to reading..I couldn't concentrate not when my mind keeps playing these scenes of Soora and Jeha repeatedly..." Hana!" Some one called out as I stared at the window and saw Lu Yan holding two cans of cola...." Let's take a break." He said as I quickly packed up and went to meet him outside.

" Here you go." He said as he helped me open up my can of soda..." Thank you." I replied as I took a sip..."Is something bothering you?" He asked.." It's nothing..." I replied...." Can I ask you a question?" I said as he nodded..." For how long have you and Jeha plus Soora been friends?' I asked..." Well for as long as I can remember...it's been over ten to eleven years." He replied.." Woah...that's a long time.." I said..." It is indeed...." He replied.." Iam jealous of what you guys have..."I said..." You have these two people who are going to be by your side throughout the highs and lows... happiness and sorrow...it's admirable." I said as he smiled..." Well it's true..but you shouldn't be jealous...I can be that kind of friend to you....." He replied as I smiled..." You Already are and Iam lucky to have you as a friend." I replied as we continued having our drinks.

JEHA'S POV

" What's all this?" I asked Soora after I saw her entire room littered with crumpled up papers..." Ohh those....I was trying to write as letter to Lu Yan....I thought that maybe I should just give him that letter and wait for his reply instead of standing in from of him expressing my self and not getting the reply I would like to get.* She explained as I picked up one and looked through it..." These are all quite terrible.." I said," I know.....can you help me come up with one....?" She asked..." What are you talking about ?" I replied..." If it were you confessing your feelings to this girl you have a crush on or have been crushing on for a long time...then what would you tell them?" She asked as I stared at her.....with my heart racing..." Come on why are you still Quiet?" She asked as I snapped out of my thoughts..." I don't know....I don't have a crush on any one....how about you just try being your self....tell him how you feel without hiding anything.... sincerity can also be a way to win over some ones heart." I replied to her," I'll let you get ready.....I'll go and check if the cake has arrived." O said as I quickly left....closing the door behind me I couldn't help feel my heart break this time.....my first crush had become nothing more than unrequited.

Later on I had to help Soora by getting Lu Yan to meet her at the rooftop..where she was going to confess how she felt for him....." Won't you be coming along too?" Lu Yan asked as I disagreed.." I still have something to do...." I said..." You should get going though...Soora is waiting." I said as he turned to leave.

As I walked away, I felt something sitted on my chest struggling me..I felt my heart race alot and I couldn't catch my breath... I loosened the tie I was wearing and then started running....I wasn't sure where I was going but I just kept running and running and then next thing I know I was on the ground with so many people staring at me...." is he okay" the all asked as I immediately stood up and walked away....

HANA'S POV

" Take this to table five.." dad said as he handed me the food...." Here you go sir." I said as I turned to leave when I heard another customer walk in...." Welcome." I said as I was surprised to see Kim Jeha walk in..." Kim Jeha..." I said to my self as he walked in and sat at a table in the corner...." Is something wrong with him " I asked myself as I picked up a memu and proceeded to to his table...." What will you be having today?" I asked as I put the menu Infront of him.." A bowl of spicy noodles...." He replied...he really didn't seem to be in a good mood..

" Are you okay?" I asked him as he looked up at me.." Can you bring one for your self as well....i don't want to eat alone." he said as I suddenly felt my heart ache for him.....

I pleaded with my dad to let me have a meal with him which he accepted.....the entire time thorough out the meal, Jeha didn't say a word to me and I didn't bother asking either but I noticed there were times he kept sniffing because of the spice, he quietly had his noodles as I watched him and once he was some he thanked me, made his payment and turned to leave.....

As he walked out, i noticed that his arm was bleeding....." Kim Jeha!" I called out as he turned around...." What's wrong?" He asked..." You hand is bleeding..." I said as he stared back at it....

" You don't have to do this...it's a small scratch.." Jeha said as I insisted on helping him treat his wound..." Whether it's small or big...it will stood get infected if not catered for in time....so let me apply some of this.* I said as I pulled out some thing to clean his wound and apply medicine...." Are you Okay?" I asked as he stared at me...." well you look like you have something bothering you....and yes maybe you don't want to talk about it which I respect but at the same time sharing with some one can help you feel a little lighter...." I added....." Well I definetly Iam not having a good day....but I also don't really feel like sharing my problem....so Iam sorry I can't tell you my problem." He replied as I respected his decision.

I put a band aid over his wound and watched him leave.

JEHA'S POV

I knew all along that Soora liked Lu Yan, I respected that and chose to back off...I was okay with her sharing those feelings with me and I was more than okay just being her friends with her... I thought that If I accepted it then Mr feelings will change but I guess they didn't considering how hearing her say she's going to confess made mo heart break...

I should be happy she gets to confess but instead of was feeling sad heart broken and even jealousy...

As I walked home...I couldn't help try to pull my self together again.....my phone rung and or was a call from Soora... I cleared my throat before picking up," Hello..." I said as I waited for a reply..." Hello....." I said again and the next thing I heard was Soora crying....
