"And this is Yeon Jun, my big sister." Micky said, proudly. Chibi and I rolled our eyes and laughed. Hyung Jun seemed to be uninterested, he simply nodded and continued eating. His expression turned stone cold again. What the! He didn't even offer a handshake? Is there something wrong with me?
Finally the first day of school is over. The bell rang and everyone rushed out of class, everyone but the four of us; Chibi, Micky, Hyung Jun and I. Chibi and I took our time packing our belongings while the boys chatted and waited for us.
Once outside of school, we saw Eunnie waiting near a black limousine.
"Hi brother," she said. Hyung Jun nodded.
"How was your first day of school, Eunnie?" I asked. Hyung Jun looked at me weirdly.
"You know my sister?" he asked.
"Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you, brother, Yeon Jun unnie was the one that asked me to sit with her during assembly and helped me make new friends." she beamed, eyes sparkling at her brother. Wow, how can someone be so darn good looking? It's so unfair.
"Really? How nice." answered Hyung Jun lovingly, smiling at his beaming sister. My jaw dropped for the second time. What is wrong with this guy? He's super friendly to my friends, he's a loving brother but he acts like a total asshole around me!
"Close your mouth or else you'll catch flies." Hyung Jun said, looking at me with his intense eyes. I mentally slap myself and closed my mouth. Fuck, that was embarrassing. I didn't realised that he was looking at me the whole time. Chibi and Micky simply stared, like viewers watching a drama series. Even Eunnie stared.
"How are you going back home?" he asked. Chibi elbowed me and then I realised that he was asking me the question.
"Huh? Oh, by train. Why do you ask?" He rolled his eyes.
"Ugh." he said in disgust and made a face. That was the sexiest thing I've ever seen. I think I mentally drooled all over myself He walked to the limousine and opened the door. "Get in, Eunnie." Eunnie obeyed and waved goodbye before getting in the car.
"Excuse me?" I asked, shocked by his reaction. I don't know if I can put up with this guy, let alone a whole year.
"I hate subways," he said and got in the car. "See you later, Micky. Come to my place around 2, you can stay for dinner if you like. Nice meeting you, Chibi." he saluted them and closed the door. The car sped off school grounds and disappeared. I let out a frustrated sigh and slowly counted from one to ten.
"Hey, you okay? Your face is all red and there are like... Whoa! You have veins popping out of your forehead!" Micky said. Chibi punched his arm. "Ow! What was that for?!" Chibi shook her head and mumbled 'Idiot.'.
"Did you see what he did just now?" I asked, angrily.
"He... closed the car door?" Micky asked in a soft voice, afraid of getting punched again. Chibi slapped her forehead.
"Chibi, you saw everything right? Is there something wrong with me? Am I wearing an 'anti-Hyung Jun' deodorant or something?" Chibi laughed, Micky still looked clueless about the whole situation.
"No, I don't think such a deodorant exists. But honestly, I don't know what is his problem either. Micky, why don't you ask him?" Chibi said, elbowing him. He stared at her like she's crazy.
"I don't even know what's going on! How am I supposed to ask?!" he shouted.
"Haven't you noticed that Hyung Jun's been ignoring Yeon Jun's existence the whole day? It's like she doesn't even exist, he looks at her like she's a maniac, treats her like a door mat, he's nice to us, but when he's talking to her, he's -"
"Okay! I think we get the point."
"Oh, now that you've mentioned it, he has been quite mean to you, but he's okay with everybody else." Micky said thoughtfully. I frowned at his sensitivity.
"So can you ask what is his problem? Since you're going to his house today."
"I'll try, big sis." he winked. "Anyway, I've got to be on my way. See you ladies tomorrow."

I arrived home and rushed up to my room, to my sanctuary. I threw my school bag on my bed and switched on my computer. It wasn't surprising to see Chibi going online the same time I did.

Suddenly a pop-up appeared. hyung_eunnie is requesting for a friend approval. Please click yes to accept her approval. I approved Eunnie's request and she immediately sent me a message.

"Yeon Jun! Help me to set up the table!" called my mom from downstairs.
yeonjun91: gtg, lunch time.
chibisuke: c ya.
chibisuke: c ya.
I logged off and went downstairs to help my mom set up the table. My mom is a very petite woman but with a strong spirit. She's been working very hard to support the two of us every since my dad passed away 5 years ago. My mom started her own laundry service right months after his passing, right in our own house. Her business is doing quite well and my mom has many loyal customers because she does a great job with her customer's laundry and her services aren't costly. Everybody loves my mom. Sometimes I help her to fold the clothes after school, when I'm not busy with homework or exams. Some customers are too busy to pick up their laundry, so we offer a delivery service too, with my trusty bike. Though I don't take my bike to school because it's too far.
My mom's second job is working part time as a cleaning maid at a 3 star hotel, Starview Hotel, every Saturday and Sundays, so I usually have the whole house to myself on weekends.
Only Chibi and Micky knows about my mom's working background because I know I can trust them. It's not that I'm ashamed of my mom's jobs, it's just that if anyone in K.H.S. finds out, or worse, if Ara finds out, I'll be the laughing stalk of the school till graduation. So I think it's better if no one finds out about it.
After lunch, I helped my mom fold the laundry and put them into separate bags for the customers to pick up. By the time I finished folding and separating, it was already evening. I turned on the TV.
"Yeon Jun, it's your turn to cook dinner." my mom said and took over my tv seat. We take turns cooking dinner evey day. It's my mom's way of teaching me to be more independent when I go to college. But college is much more expensive than K.H.S. so my mom sometimes pressures me to get a scholarship. Though my mom doesn't know this, I'm actually secretly planning to travel around the world with Chibi after our graduation. College can wait.
I went to the kitchen and started preparing the food. I'm not a very good cook, unlike my mom who is a great chef, but I make better pastas.
After dinner, I washed the dishes, kissed my mom goodnight and went up to my room to do some light reading for tomorrow's subjects. As I opened my history book, I begin to wonder if Micky has asked Hyung Jun yet. I shook my head, why should I care? He's just a guy who happens to be sitting next to me in every class for the whole year. Maybe that's why I should care. How can you sit next to a guy that treats you like crap for a whole year?
I cringed at the thought and went focused on my history. Moments passed and my eyes started to feel heavy. I closed the textbook and packed my school bag. After brushing my teeth, I climbed into my lovely bed and fell asleep.
The hallway looked very familiar, like a high school corridor. I realised that I was standing at K.H.S.'s hallway, what am I doing here in the school? Slowly the corridor began to fill up with students, but their faces were unclear. I decided to ask a random student.
"Excuse me, is there an event going on in the school?" I asked, but he ignored me and continued walking. That's odd. I walked around and stumbled upon my classroom. I can hear two people talking, a boy and a girl. I peeped inside the classroom and saw Ara sitting on the boy's table, making eye contact with him. It's Hyung Jun.
"Hyung Junnie, why don't you sit with me instead of that awful Yeon Jun? You and I belong together." she gave a high pitched giggle and touched Hyung Jun's angelic face. I think I'm going to be sick. Suddenly Hyung Jun got up and got closer to Ara. She blushed.
"Hyung Junnie Oppa?" she asked. Hyung Jun ignored her and pulled her into a deep passionate kiss.
I was so shocked from the kiss that my eyes opened with a jerk. My forehead was drenched in cold sweat and my breathing was slow and heavy. What a nightmare. I looked at the clock, it's 5.45 in the morning. Fearing going back to sleep, I went and took my shower. It was only a dream, I kept telling myself. More like a nightmare, replied the voice in my head.
After getting dressed, I went down and made my breakfast. Chibi arrived a few minutes later. I bid my mom goodbye and walked to the train station with Chibi.
"You okay? You look a little pale." she asked, looking concerned.
"What? Uh... Yeah I'm fine." I answered, but my voice came out hoarse. Chibi looked skeptical but didn't say anything more.
I wonder if my dream was trying to tell me something. Ara and Hyung Jun, like I said, those two deserve each other. But I was only kidding when I said that, it can't be possible true... Can it?
Chibi and I were one of the early birds to arrive in school as there weren't many students around yet. We walked to our classroom and heard voices from outside. It's like having a deja vu. Chibi and I peeped inside and saw Ara and Hyung Jun. She's sitting cross-legged on Hyung Jun's table, making eye contact and smiling seductively.
"What is she doing?" Chibi whispered. I shrugged.
"Hyung Junnie, why don't you sit with me instead of that awful Yeon Jun? You and I belong together." she gave a high pitched giggle and touched Hyung Jun's face.
"Bitch." Chibi muttered. "Shhh..."
Hyung Jun got up and moved closer to Ara. She blushed. It's exactly in my dream!
"Hyung Junnie oppa?" she asked. Oh no, here comes the kiss. I guess Ara always get what she wants. Soon they'll start dating and get engaged after graduation and elope instead of going to college, make beautiful babies together, then grow old and die happily together...
"Ara..." Hyung Jun said, in his deep voice.
"Hyung Junnie oppa..."
