"Soobin!" MinHa loudly called out as she ran towards the boy.

"Good morning!" She smiled as she looked up at him. He shot a smile back and said 'good morning' as well.

"How was your weekend?" She questioned, as she watched her feet as she took each step.

"It was okay." He replied back, his dryness in his response saddened her, but she wouldn't let that get to her.

"Are you friends with Hueningkai?" She asked, still trying to start up a conversation and instead he only nodded at her questions.

"What-" she was cut off before she could ask another question.

"If you continue talking to me or liking me, you'll end up getting your feelings hurt. I don't like you in that way, we aren't friends but only classmates. Why do you even like me?" Soobin questioned back, as each of his words cut deep into her heart.

She cleared her throat and stopped walking, which caused him to stop as well.

"Then... I'll just end up getting hurt, but that's okay. You probably think I only like you because of your looks right? I've known you since we were in elementary school, we went to the same middle school, and are currently in the same high school. I don't know why I like you, but do I need a reason? I just like you and it's not because of your looks." MinHa responded, gaining her composure she began to walk towards school, with Soobin trialing behind the girl who was trying her best not to cry.

"Yes, you do need a reason. Why do you like me?" She didn't respond and only continued to walk.

Once she arrived to school she grabbed a small index card out of her backpack, she wrote a small note and slipped it inside of his locker.

" reason number one: your happy aura that surrounds you. watching you as I grew up, I always loved your attitude. it never failed to throw a smile on my face after a tough night. being around you, made me happy. "
