The Star and the Heart

26

It's been a week since that day happened at the park and Minjeong always try to find ways to get time to talk to Karina but the latter always ignored her.

She just wanna know what was Karina's mind and why is she ignoring her.

She wants to confess to Karina but she can't even get closer to her.

Karina still doesn't talk to minjeong, whenever she's near her Karina always tend to make a way to get out of her sight

Everytime she saw minjeong's figured coming she always make an opposite direction not to be able to interact with her

Even in their classroom she was just quiet all the time, she also change her sit far away from Minjeong.

Even though it hurts her so much not to interact with Minjeong and that she admit that she misses her so much.

That she somehow found her self stealing glances to minjeong when the latter is not looking at her.

But she's still ignoring her feelings towards Minjeong.

"Aeri-ssi" Minjeong uttered with a sad voice

They were at the cafeteria eating right now, since that day happened.
Minjeong is always with Aeri and
Karina is always with Ningning

She told Aeri everything that night.
She confessed that she also like Jimin.
Aeri expected it already but a part of her was also hurt and she was hurt that night when she saw Minjeong balling her eyes out at the park.

She also see how Karina ignored Minjeong and that she didn't know why that girl is acting like that she want to confront her but she knows that she don't have a right to do that.

"Uhm?" Aeri said while taking a sip on her strawberry milk

"Do you think I should stop now?"

"What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean Aeri, you know how Jimin keep distancing herself from me" She sighed deeply and Aeri put her hands above Minjeong for consoling her

"Do you want me to help you to talk with her?" Aeri said she doesn't want Minjeong to be sad even though she's against what she said, but she still did for Minjeong

" But how? "

"Let me handle it" then smiled at Minjeong

"Thank you Aeri-ssi" Minjeong said and smiled back at her.

"No problem"

-

Karina and Ningning are walking at the hallway

"Jimin-ah is there something wrong with you and Minjeong?" Ningning ask, she doesn't know anything about them.

Jimin didn't tell her why is she acting like that.

Karina just shrugged it off and didn't answer Ning.

"Jimin!!!"

"What?"

"Aren't you gonna answer me?"

"Don't mind it Ning-ie"

"Why shouldn't I Jimin!?" Ningning is really frustrated right now "Look! You're not in yourself right now Jimin-ah, can't you see, I haven't seen you laugh or even just a freaking small smile and it's been week since you and Minjeong are distancing each other, so tell me what's going on?" she added.

Jimin sighed in Defeat

"I gave up Ning" she uttered weakly

"What do you mean you gave up?"
