The other day had been a bit too turbulent for those two college students. From the day Gayeon met Jaehyun, she didn't know it would turn her life upside down. In fact, she never imagined that it would go so far as to feel attracted to him in that way. How likely is your childhood friend to become a crush, after a long time without contact, and still because of a baby? Life is funny, it could have its bad days, but it was getting nicer in Gayeon eyes.

Bogum has finally become an official member of the Jung family, and depending on his father, Jaehyun and Gayeon were going to end up in a serious problem. For being thinking about it all day, the girl woke up later than expected and still only by Bogum wanting to use the bathroom. She decided to go home and take a bath. Then, after that, Gayeon picked up the phone and called her parents. Of course, she commented on what was happening, she had an idea on mind, yet she needed her mother's help. If they would like this? Certainly not, but it was necessary, at least she could try asking.

"How are things over there?" even with a lot in mind, Gayeon still worried about the health of her grandmother.

"Your grandma is fine; the doctors have prescribed new medication. The pain is gone, she's going to get better soon" her mother seemed more relaxed, which also reassured her.

"That's great! So, it was a fake alarm?"

"Yeah, almost. She just needs to stop being stubborn and take better care of herself. If she had gone to the doctor first, we wouldn't have been so frightened. Thank God it's nothing serious."

"Are you going to stay with her for a few more days?"

"We'll get home soon, I don't want to leave you alone while going to college, it's dangerous outside. So, two days. We'll be there in two days or less."

"Okay..."

"If you want to say something, say it."

"Mom, can I ask you a favor?" now that she already knew about Jaehyun's situation, Gayeon dared to ask.

"I don't promise anything."

"I'm worried about Jaehyun. You know, he also needs to go to college, but who is Bogum going to stay with?"

"That's not our problem, although you got into the middle of it. Speaking of which, tell me, how did you get involved in this whole thing? Are you spending the night alone with this boy, is that?!"

"No!" she almost stuttered on the phone "It's not that, you're misunderstanding! I already told you, there was a party and it was too loud, I went there to ask them to end it and we found the kid in the closet!"

"Party my ass, girl, what have you been doing?"

"But, oh my God! I'm telling the truth, I only help as a nanny, nothing more! And he's still our neighbor, you know who he is, he'd always came here when we were younger."

"Get pregnant and you'll see what I'll do in your face. Although if you mess up the problem will be yours. I don't care."

"So help me by taking care of Bogum while we go to college."

"Hell no."

"Mom! Please! It's only until his father comes back!"

"When will he come back?"

"We don't know yet."

"No."

"Ah, mom! What's the problem! He is such a calm boy, he doesn't even cry, what I have to do for you to say yes?"

"Find a job, start there. If you get a job and pay for your college fees, I'll take care of him."

"Why does it seem like I am making a pact with a demon?"

"You know I can make another daughter, right? You want to try your luck?"

"Okay mom, I'll accept your condition, but you have to promise to take good care of Bogum."

"Are you saying that I don't know how to raise a child?"

"No, my lord, what has gotten into you today?!"

"Oh, I know how to take care of a child. Now if there's nothing left you want to tell me, I'm going to hang up, I have things to do. If I get there and the house is a mess, ha ha, you'll see what a demon is like in real person."

"I love you too, mom. And thank you so much for accepting...!"

Even though Gayeon's mother was a difficult person to deal with, she was kind and gentle sometimes. She agreed to help them and it made the girl excited. It seemed that their problems were slowly dissipating. She wanted to run to Jaehyun's house and tell him about the news, but when she got there, she felt something heavy in the mood of the great Jung's mansion.

"Jaehyun! I got..." Gayeon walked from door to door hurrying into the living room and saw Yuta.

He was sitting in an armchair while Jaehyun was in the other ahead, both staring at each other.

"What's going on here?"

"The princess has arrived!" with a grin, Yuta greeted she as he looked away from Jaehyun "Gwiyomi, how are you?"

"I'm fine... But are you two okay?" she scratched the back of her neck watching both the boys acting strange.

"Yuta came and stayed with us for a while. He said he got a scholarship from our college" Jaehyun stood up avoiding Yuta's eyes.

"Oh, that's great! Which course will you take?"

"I like sports, especially soccer, so P.E would be good. But..." he approached touching her hair "Arts seems very attractive too."

"Oh..." she felt her cheeks warm up a little "I do this one..."Jaehyun gently took Yuta's hand from her hair and looked at him briefly.

The other boy just laughed, seeming to already know what course she was in.

"What were you saying before?" Jaehyun's words made Gayeon remember.

"Yes! I just told my mom what's going on" he looked at her in surprise "I'm sorry I didn't ask for your permission... But! She's going to help us while we're attending college. So Bogum stays at my place, and when we get back from class, he goes back to your place" she kept a smile on her face all the time and when Jaehyun did the same, she felt great joy.

"Wah... Gwiyomi is really amazing!"

"You have done so much to help me; I owe you big one..."

"Don't flirt in front of me" Yuta let out the air out of his lungs with regret "Respect the prince and don't steal his princess" Jaehyun turned, both facing each other.

"What are you talking about...?" Gayeon was just lost "What's the matter with you two?"

"Noona!" Bogum ran and hugged her leg.

"Wah, Bogummie!" she picked him up and filled him with kisses on the cheeks as he laughed.

"Unfair..." Yuta muttered, crossing his arms.

"What's unfair?" Jaehyun didn't look very happy.

"He's greeted with kisses and I'm not."

"Life is not a shoujo manga where the protagonist is in love with you" with irony Jaehyun approached the eldest at his side.

"But that doesn't mean she won't fall in love with me in the future" yet the other on laughed cynically.

"I believe... They're getting crazy..." Gayeon swore she could see sparks coming out of their eyes "Let's eat something, Bogum?"

"How about pizza?" the oldest ignored Jaehyun turning his attention to her again "My treat!"

"Fine by me... What about you, Jaehyun?"

With an affirmative nod of Jaehyun, Gayeon smiled at the eldest.

"Hey... Call me oppa! We are friends for some time already" picking up the phone Yuta moved away a little.

Gayeon never had the courage to call him that before, since Yuta had been her first love, yet those feelings for him seemed not to be as strong as before, and more, was Doyoung who made her cry too. She felt Jaehyun stare, strangely he seemed worried, angry and crazy to ask her something.

"You're acting strange... Actually, you both are. What's the matter, did something happen while I was in my place?" she asked letting Bogum run around the house looking for his toys.

"Why didn't you ever call me oppa?"

"You're worried about that?" he seemed frustrated with her question, maybe he was embarrassed "I never really thought about it. But it's a bit embarrassing and we both have the same age; it would be weird."

"It didn't seem embarrassing when Yuta asked you to call him that."

"It seems Jaehyun is jealous" she wanted to tease him just a bit and laughed with his reaction clearly failing to defend himself "I'm kidding, oppa."

His ears flushed in seconds and he turned away.

"Shit... That's hard" he seemed too disconcerted to face her.

"See, I told you it would be weird" Gayeon just laughed at all that situation "So what now, would you like me to call you Jay instead?"

"Oh my God..." he turned, shaking both his hands in denial "No way, just call me like you always did, it'll be better!"

"Oppa" she smiled at seeing him get angry.

"Aish... Why did I ask?"

"Okay, I just wanted to tease you this time" Gayeon laughed, watching him grin.

"Soon we will be eating a giant size pizza, obviously because Jaehyun would eat a normal size alone" Yuta touched Jaehyun's shoulders laughing as he approached "And you, stop flirting, you're making me jealous!"

"No one is flirting here" Jaehyun got rid of the hand of his friend.

"No comments..." Yuta sighed "Well, we'll see what we're going to do about it."

"He's not only a narcissist; he's crazy too... Even talks to himself aloud."

Gayeon was relieved to see the two laughing and provoking each other that way. It seemed that they quarreled, but now everything seemed to be ok. Given some time, the pizza finally arrived and they sat at the table. While she helped Bogum eat, Jaehyun and Yuta were a little quiet, not quite, but more than usual, something was really strange.

Bogum eventually soaked tomato sauce on his clothes, Gayeon volunteered to bathe and change his clothes, but Jaehyun chose to do it himself" I want to give you a break for today" "he said. Soon after dinner, Bogum and Jaehyun went upstairs to the bathroom. Yuta decided to help her with the dishes, while she washed, he dried.

"You could put it in the dryer... You know right?" Gayeon laughed as she finished washing and wiping her hands.

"If I had put it in the dryer, you would be embarrassed with me staring at you" that smirk again.

"You are embarrassing me now! Anyway... I realized that you and Jaehyun are acting a weird."

"Do you want to know why?" she nodded "I'm looking at the reason right now."

"What?" on impulse she looked back, and then pointed to herself "Me? No way."

"Oh... That means I'm going to have to try harder?"

"Yuta, it's hard to believe that I can be a plausible reason to cause discomfort in both of you..."

"Why?"

"Because!" she just stuttered "I don't know, I just don't find it convincing..."

"Wouldn't you believe me if I said I like you?"

"Listen to what you are saying!" she ended up blushing and threw the dishcloth against him "Stop teasing me!"

"Alright, you got me, I'll stop..." he laughed, staring at her "What if Jaehyun says that? Are you going to believe it or not?"

"Why are you asking me these things? You two are really strange today" Gayeon couldn't get more embarrassed than that.

"Don't worry, I'll use a different magic now" leaving the dishcloth on the sink, he got closer than usual "You only need to look at a single man, when you find out which, your doubts will disappear..." it was almost a whisper.

With that he kissed her hair and walked away to the living room.

Things went from worrying to extremely odd now. Gayeon just dared to go into the living room after a few minutes of silence. Calmly, she moved closer to the couch where Yuta was sitting soothingly concentrated on his cell phone. With a little distance, she sat down turning on the television and looking for something to distract herself. What an agony. Gayeon thought about starting a conversation with the eldest, but all her courage drained when Yuta glared at her. She begged for Jaehyun to come faster and save her from that situation.

"Gwiyomi."

"Hm?"

"I need to go somewhere now. You should go home too."

"Oh, you're right, it's late... But I'll wait for Jaehyun to come back first."

"Sure, we'll say goodbye to them before leaving."

"We?"

"Who do you think will accompany you home?"

"But my house is right over there..."

"Hey, don't argue with the prince."

"What are you two whispering?" with a pleasant smell of soap, Jaehyun approached sitting between them on the large sofa.

"I have to go. My apartment is a mess and I need to finish unpacking some things. Unpacking on my own is difficult, you know" Yuta seemed tired.

"Do you want help?" laughing at the older one's reaction, Jaehyun lightly shoved his shoulder.

"Really?! Oh man, grab the baby and let's go to the car!" in a jump, Yuta stretched.

"Okay, okay... You're coming too?" giving a smile of those, it was almost unfair for her to be able to reject.

"I would love to...!" she was reluctant to finish the sentence.

"But...?" Jaehyun looked worried "It's not another date, is it?"

"If it were, it would be with me, duh!" Yuta joked, staring at her "Right?" but soon he worried too.

"What are you talking about?" she ended up laughing in denial at their words "I just have to finish cleaning the house. My parents will come back remember?"

"Oh!" both of them spoke together.

"But you didn't answer my question" Yuta had been interrupted by Jaehyun, who dragged him until they were both at the front door.

"Ignore this guy..." Shortly after leaving Yuta in the car, Jaehyun came back "Bogum, let's go to Yuta hyung's house today?"

"Okay! Is noona going with us?" the smallest, now in Jaehyun's arms, smiled at his older brother.

"She needs to stay and clean the house."

"But noona promises to play with you tomorrow" squeezing Bogum's cheek lightly, Gayeon left the Jung's house waving as she saw them inside the car.

"You don't have to think too much" before leaving, Yuta smiled at her "Just pay attention to what I said, and everything will be obvious...!" and then they left.

While cleaning the house listening to some music, Gayeon ended up distracting herself and the time passed faster. In a little while she was already in her room facing that drawing on the desk. She really wanted to understand why she draw Jaehyun. Tired of looking for answers, she kept it in the drawer. Definitely today was not a very common day. She was still confused by what Yuta had said, not to mention that it was not only him who acted strange, but Jaehyun as well. Gayeon tried to ignore useless thoughts, like the possibility that one of them might like her, for example.

"It's okay that I kissed Jung Jaehyun, not once, but twice, the first one being his fault, but what did that really mean? Would it be okay to ask? Maybe he was just trying to comfort me at that moment. Since he hadn't said anything, I believe it hadn't had any feelings in that kiss" Gayeon couldn't help but think about this like that.

Just imagining that she might be starting to like someone else, right after a heartbreak, it was uncomfortable for her. The feelings were shaken because she liked Doyoung, but then why did Hana bother her heart so much? She didn't want to delude herself anymore, so she made a promise. They're just friends, she, Jaehyun and Yuta, just like old times.

"I will not break my heart again!"
