(Yeontae's POV)

I can't believe I am going out with these kids. And why did Inho looks like he is 18 years old?

(1 hour ago)

"Don't you think we should have fun?" Today is our turns to clean the classroom. Luckily, I got to be grouped with these old hags.

"I have plan." Louoon said as he ran through the hallway.

"We have a date. Let's go, Doo." Doha pulled Youngdoo's arm. Youngdoo had this confused look but still let himself being dragged by Doha.

"Ahh.. Just the two of us will be boring." I said.

"WARGHHHH!!!"

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!!" I scream.

"Hi hyungs," Jaemin waved his hand. How can he greet us cheerfully after screaming like crazy just now.

"What is this kid doing here?" I asked Inho. Inho smirked.

"Who said it will be just the TWO of us?"

(Present)

Now I feel trap in this High School Romance. Inho plays along like he is in their age when he is actually freaking 22!

Six of them go to an amusement park.

"What is this?" Inho asks the shop owner while holding a really beautiful card.

"That is love card. You can give them to the person you love. That is just leftover from Valentine Day."

"Noona, let's buy this!" Jaemin clings his arm on Jayeon's shoulder.

"Don't tell me you guys are--" Junhee stops.

"You two are dating!" Seolmin and Yeontae look at each other and laugh.

"We.. We are not!" Jayeon's face turns red. "Ei~ How can you said that~" Jaemin smiles sheepishly.

"Buy the card then," said Yeontae. "I'm sorry, sir. But this card goes as a set. There are 3 pairs in it."

"Really? Then, one for us. One for Junhee noona and Inho hyung. And one for Seolmin noona and Seonghwan hyung."

"Why put me in this?" Junhee sighs. "Then who will take the other one if not both of you?" Jaemin asks. "Put Yeontae sunbae and him as a pair then," Junhee replies. "Excuse me." Inho glares at Junhee. "You are excused," Junhee smiles.

"I... I can't take this.." Seolmin stutters. She looks at Seonghwan. "Why?" Jaemin asks. "You don't want Seonghwan right? Then I'll be your pair," Yeontae calmly said.

"I want it," Seonghwan takes the card and goes to another shop.

Yeontae smirks,

"What an ass..."

(A day after)

In this class, we are teach to say Spanish, pronounce those hard French words that can make your tongue twist 180°, write essay in Chinese and learn all languages that I never want to learn.

It's ridiculous how they teach 10 languages in a year and how all the students in this course able to study all of it.

Geez..

After all, they are all smart.

KRINGGGGG!!!!!!!

"That's all for today's class. Don't forget to memorize those Italian words that I told you jusr now. Class dismissed."

"Thank you, teacher!"

I put my stuff in my backpack and go out. I often go to Music Course's room after my class ended because their practice ends late than other courses.

"Hye," I open the door and greet them. Only the dance team is there. I sit beside Seonyeon.

"What's with your face?" Seonyeon asks.

"What? There are dirts?" I touch my face.

"No, not dirts. Your expression. It's gloomy."

"It's not..." I lower my head. "Tell me what is it."

I sigh,

"I'm so tired. My course is tiring. I think I need to change my course."

"To what?" Seonyeon looks at my face.

"To Music."

"You.Aint.Kidding.Me."

"We're home!" Yejoo shouts right when she steps inside their house. Seolmin just shakes her head and smiles at her cheerful sister.

"Hey," greet their mom, Mrs Shin. She is a successful businesswoman. She is extremely busy, just like her husband. But, she really cares about her daughters' stuffs, especially their school.

"Mom, you are not at boutique? How about spa?" Yejoo just throws her bag nowhere and it gets pick by their maid. Poor the maid.

"I take a day off today. Besides, your aunt come so she can look at the spa while I'm here," Mrs Shin replies. Yejoo just nods. "Bye, mom. I'm going to my room."

"Me too, mom. Bye," Seolmin goes to stair to her room but immediately stopped by Mrs Shin.

"Seolmin, let's talk."

Seolmin slowly goes to her mom.

"Kim Seolmin," Mrs Shin takes a deep breath.

"Your homeroom teacher called me saying you changed your course. Is it true?"

"Ye...yes, mo..mom"

"Why did you do that?"

Seolmin stays silent.

"WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!!!!"

"I TOLD YOU TO NOT CHANGE YOUR COURSE! IT WAS THE BEST COURSE. WHY DID YOU TAKE MUSIC COURSE? JUST STUDY WELL, WILL YOU?!"

"I just ask you to study. Just study. Don't do anything else."

"I don't want to study."

Seolmin clench her trembling fist.

"I really hate studying. You force me to do it. You never ask me what I want to do, what I like and what I want to be."

"You create my whole life. You arrange my schedules and times. You watch my whole actions."

"I turn to a coward and be a girl who has lots of tear and fear. I tremble everytime I do things. I'm scared I might do any mistakes. You expect me to be perfect, when I'm actually not."

"I don't want... to be your doll anymore."

PAP!

Seolmin touches her cheek. Tears stream down on her face as all of her body feel weak.

"HOW CAN YOU BE SO RUDE TO ME?!"

"Why are you treating us differently?" She stops the words stuck in her throat. Seolmin sobs while wiping her tears with her sleeve. "You let Yejoo do anything she wants. You give her freedom. You let her go out with her friends. You let her choose her own path."

"Unnie..." Yejoo stands on the stair while watching them.

"Is it because our fathers are different?"

Yejoo shocks.

"KIM SEOLMIN!"

"Stop covering things anymore! Father left us when I am 3 years old and I never bring it because I respect you and dad. But, that just made you think I forget all of it and act like everything is normal. I miss father. I miss him so much..."

"I still remember him.."

"No, shut up! Dad is your father and Yejoo is your sist--"

"THEY ARE NOT!"

PAP!

Seolmin runs to the door. Yejoo yells her name. Mr Kim, her dad is there, in front of the door.

"Seolmin-ah.."

Seolmin ignores her dad and runs out from the house.

Hours passed and it was already night. Seolmin sits alone in the playground. Nobody is there except for her even it's just 8pm.

"Drink this,"

Seolmin looks at the hand that holds a cup of strawberry smoothie. She starts tearing up when she saw the person.

It was Seonghwan.

(9 years ago)

"Wow it's a piano!"  A 9 years old Seonghwan sat in front of the piano excitedly. He pressed all the keys carelessly as he doesn't know how to play the instrument.

"What are you doing?"

Seonghwan turned to the back to see a girl who looks younger, looking at him weirdly.

"Is this your piano?" The girl nodded. Seonghwan grinned and pulled the girl hand to sit beside him.

"What is your name?"

"Seolmin. Kim Seolmin."

"Seolminnie! Can you teach me how to play piano? I really want to learn. Please!" He took Seolmin's hands and clenched it. Seolmin looked a bit flustered.

"Please!"

"O...Okay."

Seolmin plays the piece she just learnt yesterday, Kiss the Rain by Yiruma.

"I really love this piece! Teach me this," Seonghwan interrupted.

"Okay, I will," Seolmin chuckled.

"You will go to my graduation right?" Seolmin asked Seonghwan.

"Of course, then we have to celebrate it, the last day of your Elementary School's life. You have to go the same school like me ok?" Seonghwan pinched her cheek.

"Alright, mister!"

(Baehwa All-Girls Middle School Graduation Day)

"Where is him?" Seolmin looked at her wristwatch for the nth time. Then, she pulled the curtain to look at the audience but still, no Seonghwan.

"Kim Seolmin, your turn."

"But, I--"

"Faster, everyone anticipate your piano performance."

"O... Okay."
