"Oh, so Jake skipped school because he was after some girls again?"
The rumours of Jake's whereabouts started to stir up again.

Hwayoung was beyond confused and was extremely troubled for Jake.

Jake never picked up her calls.

Even her messages were not even delivered to him.

There were multiple rumours about Jake's whereabouts right now.

There was one saying that he skipped school because he was playing with some girls.

Another was that he went for a vacation.

Another was that Jake changed schools.

There were many other reasons but, Hwayoung was most probably going to believe it was the first reason since after all, she was going to meet him this Saturday.

Or maybe, he just fell sick...

When Hwayoung tried to ask Jungwon about Jake, he just shook his head or shrugged his shoulders and did not reply with anything.

Hwayoung was very sure that Jungwon knows everything but, he was just not planning to say it.

Hwayoung then let out a deep sigh as she slouched back into her seat.

"But the first reason does not explain why he was acting like that that day-"

"Did you hear that Sihyo is going to get surprised this Saturday for a date with Jungwon?"
One of Hwayoung's classmates told her friends.

"OH MY GOD- WITH JUNGWON?!"
The other girl started squealing and stomping her feet adorably at the thought of shopping Sihyo and Jungwon together.

"What the fuck... I can't even get away with this in school?"
Hwayoung cursed out of disgust and covered her eyes with the palms of her hands.

"HWAYOUNG!"
A very longing and familiar voice called out.

"Sihyo?"
Hwayoung took off her palms from her ears.

"Did you hear that Jungwon was most probably going to go on a date soon? Oh my gosh! I do wonder who is this lucky girl!"
Sihyo blushed as she sat beside Hwayoung.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK YOU WANT-

So the first thing she came back up to me after such a long time was to ask me a question about her love life when SHE ALREADY KNOWS THE FUCKING ANSWER?!

"Of course it's going to be you! Jungwon has definitely liked you for so long already!"
Hwayoung gushed as she plastered a fake smile on her face.

"Nope, it can't be~"
Sihyo tried to stay humble but, she was already blushing so madly.

"Aish... Don't try to act humble! Everyone in the class already knows!"
Hwayoung playfully slapped Sihyo's arm.

She did not know why but, Sihyo was getting on her nerves so lately these days.

Control yourself, Hwayoung!

Oh my fucking god, I want to slap-

Control yourself!

"Hwayoung ah, what's the matter? You seem to be a little angry..."
Sihyo worried a little.

"Nah, I'm just really angry at a friend of mine."
Hwayoung stated vaguely.

"Is it me?"
Sihyo pouted her lips 'cutely'.

OH MY FUCKING GOD, OF COURSE, IT'S YOU?!

"Of course not!"
Hwayoung lied.

Seems like her acting skills were not that bad, it managed to make her look quite realistic!

"Then who else though? Who else is your friend..."
Sihyo looked around the classroom, trying to find who it was.

HOW DARE THIS- SHE INSULT ME LIKE THIS- OH MY GOD-

I mean she was not wrong in a way though...

"Wait- What? Did Jake changed his phone or something? Did he get into trouble?"
Hwayoung heard the robotic voice.

After many multiple tries, it was already 4 am in the morning.

"I guess he will never pick up. I will just go to sleep right now."
Hwayoung gave up and went to her bed.

Ring! Ring!

"Oh my god, who is it?"
Hwayoung crossed her eyebrows in irritation as she picked up the call.

╭─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╮

Hello?

Oh my god, not another scam caller-

I'm so sorry, what?!

HELLO? CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I'M TRYING TO SLEEP?! IF YOU WANT TO GO PRANK SOME CALLS, CAN YOU AT LEAST CHOOSE WISELY?!

But-

- call ended -

╰─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╯

"UGH..."
Hwayoung let out a loud groan as she slammed her phone back on her nightstand and fell back to sleep.

Ring! Ring!

"OH MY FUCKING GOD- NOW, EVEN SCAM CALLERS ARE IRRITATING ME!"
Hwayoung groaned and declined the call.

Ring! Ring!

Hwayoung declined the call again.

Ring! Ring!

"OH MY GOD JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
Hwayoung then reluctantly picked up the call.

╭─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╮

HELLO?! I SAID STOP CALLING

Hwayoung?

╰─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╯

"Hold up... is it him?"

╭─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╮

Jake?

Pfft, no I'm a scammer. Be very afraid!

I'M SO SORRY, PLEASE-
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!

I'm in Australia, right now.

WHAT?!
WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING THERE?

Work, of course.

By the way, wanna video call?

Sure!

╰─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╯

And, for the next ten minutes, Jake explained everything to Hwayoung.

The reason why he did not pick up calls was that he changed his phone and the phone took a while to set up and stuff.

As soon as he started explaining his leave, tears started to fall from Hwayoung's eyes as she pursed her lips together.

╭─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╮

Yah, why are you crying?
Save your tears for your future husband!

You, idiot! Why didn't you tell
me earlier, you fucking idiot-

If I told you, I wouldn't 
be able to let you go, dumb shit.

Still! I'm important!

Aish, you are dumber as ever!

Oh, what about the Saturday thing?

Right! Can you still come over?
There will be someone waiting for you.

Who?

It's up to you to find out!

What the...

Aish, I've got to go to work soon.
You need to go to school soon.
Take care, okay?

Alright...

Bye!!

Goodbye...

Yah, can you at least give me
a fucking smile?

FINE!
*smile*

*KACHA*

What the fuck did you just do?

Gosh, you should never consider
acting- Your fake smile is so ugly...

YAH!

Don't miss me too much!

- call ended -

╰─────────︒✿ཾ∘∗✽ᜒࠬ. ─────────╯

"Someone waiting for me?"
Hwayoung crossed her eyebrows and lied down on her bed out of tiredness.
