Kapitel 32: What is Wrong with Him?
Mia went and sat down at her seat, still thinking about what had happened earlier.
"Hey, Mia!"
"Huh?…Um...Hey April!"
"We are again in the same class," April said sitting next to her.
"Yeah.", Mia smiled.
"Um…Hello…", the girl sitting in front of Mia said hesitantly.
"Oh, Hello So Hee.", Mia greeted her with a smile.
So Hee was surprised by this.
"Are you….Are you not angry with me?", So Hee asked.
"Umm....Well, I was... at that time. But not anymore.
You said really mean things that day.
But I know that you've understood your mistake and now you regret it till today, don't you?"
So Hee hung her head down. "I am sorry, Mia. I was really out of my mind that day. I am sorry."
"Don't say sorry to me. You know very well, to whom you should apologize."
"Yeah…" So Hee nodded.
"But…How would I say sorry to him?
I mean, he didn't even know, all this happened that day."
"Um…Maybe he did." April, who was quiet for all this time, interrupted their conversation.
Mia and So Hee looked at her.
"What do you mean?", asked So Hee.
"Actually, I saw him at that time, standing beside the wall.
And I think he heard your conversation."
"Really?", Mia asked worriedly.
April nodded.
'Ohh, Ray….You heard that all?.....I…I can't even imagine, how you felt that time…Ohhh...Poor Ray….' As Mia thought about him, her face saddened.
While So Hee's face had turned pale now.
April looked at her.
"Don't worry So Hee.
If you apologize to him sincerely, he will definitely forgive you."
"Will he really?"
"Yes, he will." Mia said confidently.
"But…I am a bit worried. I mean...
I don't have the courage to go in front of him, after knowing that he heard all those things that day.
I really said a lot of crap. Now I feel shameful to face him."
"You can do it, So Hee. He will forgive you, don't worry." April tried to encourage her.
"Will you…Will you come with me, Mia?"
"Huh? Me?"
"Yeah…I mean, he is a very good friend of yours.
And he won't get angry if you are with me."
"But—"
"And you were also there with me at that time. So it will be easier to convince him.
Please…." So Hee requested.
Mia stayed quiet for a second, "...Okay, we'll go."
"Aw, thank you so much, Mia." So Hee clapped.
Suddenly, the teacher entered the classroom, April ran towards her seat and So Hee turned herself to front, while Mia was thinking—
'I hope….He'll talk to me this time….'
~
"Miaaa…."
'And here she comes…', Mia smiled as she saw Gyuri running towards her seat.
"Let's eat!" And Gyuri sat beside her.
"What is it? You seem really happy today, Gyuri."
"I am always like this."
"Oh really?", Mia tilted her head.
"Actually…"
Gyuri came closer to Mia and whispered in her ears.
"I am sitting next to the most handsome guy in our class."
"Huh? Who's that?", Mia asked.
"He is—"
"Hey, Mia." Suddenly So Hee interrupted them.
"Um...Yeah?"
"We'll go to...do the thing; we talked earlier, after lunch. Okay?"
"Yeah, okay."
"Which thing Mia?", Gyuri asked curiously.
"Well…It's—"
"It's nothing." So Hee said hurriedly.
Gyuri looked at her confused but didn't ask anything further.
While April came next to them and said,
"Should we have lunch here at your table, Mia?"
"Sure. Come and sit."
And all the four of them had their lunch together.

Mia and So Hee came out from their class.
"Let's go.", Mia said.
"Um...Yeah.." So Hee hesitated.
Mia took her hand and squeezed it.
So Hee looked at her with worried expressions.
Mia nodded as if saying, 'Don't worry. I am with you.'
Both the girls walked towards the 3-B class.
Mia peeked inside and looked everywhere, but she didn't see him.
She saw In Hyun Tae, at his seat, reading a book as always.
"Hey, Hyun Tae."
He took his head out.
"Oh, Mia. Long time no see.
What are you doing here?"
"Umm….."
"Gyuri is not here right now. She went to your class."
"Oh…No..No. I am not searching for Gyuri.
Actually…Do you know…where Ray is?"
"Ray? Yeah. He went to the library to get me some books.
But why are—"
Before he could say anything further, Mia said, "Thanks Hyun Tae. See you later."
And she ran outside.
Grabbing So Hee's hand, she said, "Let's go. Hurry up."
And they ran towards the Library.
When they arrived at the library, they saw Ray coming out from it with some books in his hands.
"Mia..I can't do this." So Hee turned back to go.
"Wait!" Mia grabbed her hand and taking her towards Ray, she stood right in front of him.
Ray got startled a bit.
"Say it!" Mia said to So Hee.
But So Hee said nothing.
"What is going on?" Ray looked at So Hee but not Mia.
"Well, she wants to tell you something." Mia still answered.
"Um…Actually…Um...I..."
So Hee couldn't say anything further.
"She is talking about April's birthday party. She wants to say something."
Mia said trying to help her.
"I don't want to hear anything."
And Ray started to walk away.
"Wait.." So Hee yelled and hurriedly went in front of him. Mia also came beside her.
"I am sorry, Ray. That.. That night I talked a lot of bad things about you, after the juice incident.. In the bathroom...And…I was just really angry….I really didn't mean any of it…Really…I am…I am so sorry."
So Hee bowed down and apologized sincerely.
"Please forgive me."
Ray sighed loudly.
"It's okay."
She looked above confused.
"Really? You are forgiving me? This soon?
I mean…I thought….I'll have to—"
"I said, it's okay.
Besides I wasn't even angry with you."
"Really?" So Hee said happily.
While Mia was smiling at him, 'I knew, he would forgive her.'
"Yeah. I wasn't disappointed in you, because I wasn't expecting anything from you." His voice seemed very cold.
"Huh?" So Hee gave him a confused look.
"And I won't ever expect anything from anyone, ever again."
Ray glanced at Mia with his ice-cold gaze.
Mia was also confused by his statement.
'What does he mean? Why did he say that?' Mia thought.
Ray started walking.
As she saw him walking away, she remembered, 'Oh, right! I wanted to talk to him.'
"Ray? Ray!!!", she called his name.
But he didn't turn back, neither had he stopped.
"Ray!!!", she shouted and took some steps towards him.
But he walked even faster and soon disappeared before her eyes.
'What is wrong with him? Why is he avoiding me?'
Mia's face darkened. She couldn't understand what she should do. She just kept looking in the direction where he went.
"He is so cool!!!!!"
So Hee said as she came next to Mia.
"He forgave me instantly. And his looks are also changed now.
He looks so handsome. Don't you think, Mia?"
So Hee was really excited.
But Mia didn't say anything.
"The way he said 'It's okay'….SO COOL!!!!", she giggled.
"I never thought, I'd compliment him ever…"
So Hee kept talking about him continuously but Mia didn't respond.
She wasn't even in a state of mind to talk anything to anyone.
'What's wrong?... Did I do something?.... But what did I do? ....What did I do?'
