"What did you do, Harp?" Minzy sat beside her who was currently reading.
"What do you mean?" She asked, her eyes still on the book.
"Dylan seemed mad this morning and he's been ranting to me last night." Minzy pointed out.
Harper then looked at her. "Was it because of me?"
"Ah! I know." Her best friend sat properly and faced her. "It's because you went to Haruto's place. Jerk got jealous." She whispered.
Harper gulped. "You sure?"
Minzy nodded. "He's your boyfriend, Harper."
"No wonder why I didn't get any messages from him since I got home yesterday." She pouted. She then looked back at Haruto. She saw him talking to his seat mate.
She released a sigh. "I'll talk to him."
The school bell finally rang. As the teacher went out of the classroom, Haruto walked towards her and called for her name.
She turned to him. "Yea?"
"I'm just wondering... when can I talk to your boyfriend?"
Harper slightly widened her eyes. "All of a sudden?"
Haruto chuckled. "Yeah. When?"
She bit her lip. "Uhh.. not now? Just- soon. We still have something to talk about."
Haruto nodded. "Ahh.. I see. Eat well." He then messed her hair before walking away.
“The fuck..”

After eating, Harper went to find Dylan. Obviously, he didn't eat lunch with them.
She saw him walk out of the Male's restroom. "Babe." She called.
Dylan stopped.
She played bubbly in front of him. "Hi! How are you?"
He looked at her. "Fine." He said in a serious tone.
"You.. seem cold."
"Really?"
Harper nodded her head. "Do you have something you want to talk about?"
"How about you tell me what you did in Haruto's place?"
She laughed. "Hey, you're jealous!"
Dylan looked at her seriously. "Oh.."
"You said you'll come to a classmate's house to do something like a 'project'. Why didn't you tell me it was Haruto's place you'll go to, huh?" He said.
Harper’s expression became serious. "I didn’t think it was important. He’s a classmate too."
"You didn't even update me if you got home or not." He looked away. "You know what's my favorite? Minzy told me you came there to check up on him cause 'maybe' he's sick. You weren't assigned to do any projects."
"I'm sorry." Hayeol looked down. "He's my friend, I was worried. It’s my bad, I didn’t think you’re gonna let me go either you seem.. to have a bad impression of him."
Her boyfriend looked at her once again. "Well than now that you know that, I’ll tell you that I don't want you friends with him no more."
Harper looked up at him. "Say it again?"
"I said I don't want you friends with that fucker anymore." Dylan repeated.
She raised an eye brow. "You're serious? Why? Did he do something, what makes you so mad at him?"
"Just end your friendship with him!" He raised his voice. "I don't want you being friends with guys."
Harper suddenly laughed sarcastically. "Dylan, what the fuck?"
She suddenly felt trapped. "You can't tell me what to do."
"Yes, I can. I'm your boyfriend." He reminded her.
"Just because I went to his house? Geez, I can't believe you." Haper shook her head as she walked away, leaving Dylan behind.

After lunch, Haruto noticed how Harper became so quiet. Not because she was reading a book. She was just staring at the ground with her arms crossed during the lesson.
He can't talk to her even when the next period comes. She always put her head down low once the teacher goes out of the room. Even Minzy, didn't try to go talk to her.
Once they were dismissed, Harper hurriedly wore her bag and made her way out of the room.
Haruto then ran towards her. "Harp." He called. She didn't mind him. She continued to walk.
He grabbed her bag and it made her stop. She slowly faced him.
"You.. you okay?" He asked.
She just blinked twice. "Hey." Haruto waved his hand in front of her face.
"Oh." She finally came back to her senses. "Can we.. not talk right now?"
"I just wanna know if you're feeling okay. Are you sick?" He asked, putting his hand over Harper’s forehead.
Harper shoved his hand away which surprised him. "I'm not in the mood, Haruto. Please leave me alone for a sec. Yea?"
Haruto slowly nodded. "I get you." He gave her a thin smile.
She turned her back at him and walked away.
Haruto then felt a hand tap his shoulder. "Our handsome giant is worried." Said Jace.
"Wait for her to message you soon. Pretty sure she'll not be able to keep it on herself. Probably had an argument with Dylan." Minzy butted in. "I'll go now. See you guys tomorrow." She walked away, leaving the boys in front of the classroom.
Until Haruto made his way back at home, he was still worried for her. What if Dylan hurt her? He kept on wondering what the both of them argued about.
While laying down his bed, his phone vibrated and he hurriedly checked it.
