[ Chapter 8: Misunderstanding ]

: Ting! Ting!! Ting!!!

The bell rang.

In the empty room, the clock slowly ticks. Upon this room, a man was sleeping. He was asleep without even knowing about the bell and morning breaks.

Students passed by in this room, but they were not responsible for waking him up.

Jin Park did not do anything. He just sleeps there without doing anything. He heard the ringing bell but did not do anything. He did nothing.

A loud voice suddenly rang in his mind.

: Hey!

: Hey!

It was calling him. Jin Park suddenly responded. He opened his eyes slowly and wiped his blurry eyes.

: Who are you?

Jin Park asked.

: I’m sorry.

That calling voice replied to him.

Then his eyes became clearer. He saw a beautiful woman who shakes his heart.

: You!

He shrieked upon her beauty. It wasn’t an admiration but a fierce voice.

: I’m sorry.

That woman said.

After Leah ate her food she wanted to do something. Her turmoil heart couldn’t stand this unfazed trouble. She wanted her troubles to be cleared off so it would not linger in her mind anymore.

: I think I should apologize to this person.

Leah thought. She kept looking at him.

: Hey!

Leah called him.

: Hey!

Leah called him again.

: This new guy.

Leah thought.

Then this time Leah pinched his face.

: Was this new guy sleeping?

Leah asked herself.

Then suddenly, the guy wakes up.

Finally, his consciousness returned. He wore a straight face. He looked at Leah like air.

: Hey!

Leah called him from his drowsiness.

: I know!

Finally, he called back. He yelled at her so Leah will hear it clearly. This hid face turned serious.

: You!

: You're that girl, right?

Jin asked her.

Leah didn’t say anything but she nodded.

: Haha!

Jin laughed with a grin then looked at her with an annoying face.

: I'm late because of you! My uniform is wet because of you! Your saliva and your scent! It was still here on my uniform! It was because of you!

Jin Park said without pause. He speaks like it was hell-bent. Jin Park was late because of her. Jin Park uniform smelled like hers.

: This!

Leah couldn’t reply him back. She looked at him with an embarrassing face. She didn't know what to say, almost.

It was exactly her cause why Jin Park is late. But Leah didn't expect him to say everything.

Then Leah calmed down.

: Don't you know someone named Sherry?

Leah asked despite her mistakes and that boiling face. She wanted to prove something. She can’t stop her mouth but to speak those words without fear.

: I know you are the same.

Leah asked her mind.

: If he heard this, he will shake.

Leah thought about it.

: Pardon?

Jin asked her.

: Sherry?

Leah asked him directly.

: You!

Jin grinned at her. His wounded past opened.

Leah condemned herself after that look and angry voice of Jin Park.

: I was correct!

Leah muttered by herself. Now, she really believed in him.

: He-!

: He's real!

Leah couldn’t help but utter those words.

However, Jin looked at her with a mad face.

: Why?

Jin asked her. But, he still bore his resentment. It was all written in his face.

: Well...

: I'm so sorry.

Leah apologized to him. But, she smiled silly.

Then Jin calmed down. He felt this girl is somewhat honest. He looked at her with his straight face again.

: No. It's okay. She left me already.

Jin said as he remembered something. He can’t just blame everything to her.

: It was also my mistake.

Jin muttered by himself. Then he stopped his running thoughts.

Of course, Leah believed him now.

: Even my friends don’t trust me, but I do believe in him.

Leah thought. She squeezed her arm and looked at him straightly.

: I believe in you.

Leah said. Then all of a sudden Leah hugged him.

: Ah!

Jin was surprised by her actions.

Unbeknownst to these two birds, Gu, Ji, Nami and Ole are watching. They gawked at them.

: Leah!

They looked at her blankly, surprise and unbelieving that Leah hugged that new guy. Of course, they came back to their senses.

: Leah is...

: She was in love! 

Nami shouted. She can’t believe at this sudden confession.

: Ah!

Jin Park was taken aback. Of course, he was also embarrassed. He saw the girls kept looking at him with different faces. Some were angry, happy, surprise, and sad.

This is the second time Leah hugged him.

: Why did you hug me!

Jin called her back.

: Ah ha ha ha haha.

Leah suddenly burst in tears.

: Ah... what!

: This girl is crying for no reason! She hugged me for no reason!

Jin thought of this. He can’t believe that this girl cried because he yelled at her.

: I don't know why you cried, but...

Jin said but he stopped his words halfway. He looked at her with a mad face.

: Argh! Thank you, Miss! My dog died because of you!! My dog ran away because of you!!! It was you who let my dog ran away!!!

: It was because of you!

: I wanted to chase my dog so much but I can't ****** save my dog because of you!

Jin shouted to her with a mad face.

Because of her, the dog died. Jin's puppy. It was his dog who is named Sherry. 

Leah thought he was Jin Park. Jin Park from the light novel itself. She finds him like Jin Park but it wasn't him. She mistook him for nothing. She believed he is real. 

Her world sank down. 

: Did I mistake him for Jin?

Leah asked her mind.

: Ah!

Leah ceased off from the hug and ran away.

It's so embarrassing.
