You Were Just Mine—Until Everyone Else Noticed You
The next day, Lee Joon went viral.
Clips from his song were everywhere.
Girls posted his smile.
Fan pages popped up with names like "Joonie's Voice 😭💘"
And Han Nari?
She didn't expect to feel… weird.
At Lunch
A girl leaned into Joon's table, smiling too wide.
"You were soooo good last night. You should totally do music full-time!"
She touched his arm.
Nari's spoon snapped in half.
"You okay?" Gulzhan whispered beside her.
"Fine," she smiled. Dead inside.
After School – Empty Music Room
She found Joon playing piano.
He looked up, surprised.
"You didn't reply to my texts."
"I was busy… watching you become famous."
He frowned.
"Are you mad?"
"I'm not mad," she said, folding her arms.
"I just didn't know I had to compete now."
His brows rose.
"You don't. You already won."
She turned away.
Heart pounding.
Voice shaking.
"You shouldn't make me feel replaceable."
He walked up behind her. Quiet. Careful.
"Then listen closely."
He leaned in.
"I love—"
SLAM.
The door opened.
Hyun stood there.
"Sorry to interrupt… but I think I said it first."
