"Ok, text if anything goes wrong. Make sure your ringer is turned on. At full volume too."
"Ugh, she getâs it, Kurra; no need to go all mom mode on her."
"I canât help but worry about her, Yunjin; sheâs having the most emotional talk of her life. Should I put out a box of tissues? I should shouldnât IâŚ.â
"Iâll be fine, Kurra, really."
It was 4:55 p.m., and your heart was pounding. It was time for an honest talk with your best friends. So things wouldnât feel like an ambush, you all agreed it would be best to keep the conversation between you, Jimin, and Yujin. The others were close to you as well, but they didn't have the same childhood connection as the three of you. Although everyone had been hurt about Yujinâs betrayal, no one could experience more pain than you and Jimin did at this moment.
As the rest of the gang prepared to make their exit, you heard a soft knock coming from the front door.
"Huh, Yujinâs early? Thatâs a first." You gave a soft smile at Yunjin, who always tried to find comedy in the most serious moments; you appreciated it. Sakura walked up to the door and let in your childhood friend.
Yujin looked thinner and more pale than you remembered; it was obvious that this situation had taken a toll on her.
"You have a key?" Said Minji, pondering as to why she didnât just let herself in since it was Yujinâs dorm as well.
"Yeah, but I felt like I needed to warn you all that I was here. Itâs the least I can do."
As Yujin spoke, your fellow college friends began to exit the dorm. You knew they would all just stay in Kurraâs car, waiting for you to give the âOKâ text for them to come in, but you appreciated the privacy that tried to give you three.
"So, howâs living at Wonyoungâs?"
"Oh, um, nice? She has constant hot water, so thatâs pretty cool."
"Dang! Minji does waste all the hot water, doesnât she? I donât have the heart to tell her that the rest of us canât stand freezing cold showers, though."
"Ha, yeah."
This conversation was incredibly awkward.
Jimin cleared her throat and gestured for Yujin to take a seat on the sofa. To which Yujin humbly obliged. It was obvious she missed being in her dorm. She went right back to her usual seat on the sofa with a sigh of relief. (You and the others swore that there was a Yujin-shaped imprint in the cushion, but Yujin always argued otherwise.)
"We all know why you're here, Yujin."
"Right, Yeah⌠I donât even know where to start."
âHow about your secret friendship with Wonyoung, how the fuck did that even happen?â
"How about how youâre a back-stabbing weasel who made the love of my life kiss someone else in front of me?" Yujin winced at your comment and looked down at her feet. You knew that was harsh, but Yujin deserved it. She hurt you four years ago, and she hurt you four days ago. Yujin deserved to hear how upset you were.
"Iâll start from the beginning... Just, please hear me out."
"Weâre listening."
Yujin took a deep breath and exhaled.
"Ok, it all started junior year."
_______________________________________________
Yujin had always been an eccentric kid. She never cared about what people thought. It was obvious by the way she acted in public. Yujin was loud, energetic, and carefree. She never had to worry about peopleâs opinions affecting her because she knew her friends would always be by her side. Even when she let out all the tarantulas from the science lab or when she sent three kids to the hospital after a serious game of dodgeball, Y/n and Jimin defended her through it all.
"Plus 4, take THAT Jimin."
"Plus 4." Jimin slammed down her card while giving Y/N a mischievous side-eye.
"No, this canât be." She claimed Yujin as her eyes widened once she realized that Y/N was mimicking Jiminâs grin.
"Y/n, think this through; weâre friends."
"Youâre right, Yujin, plus 4." Yujin let out an ear-piercing scream. She now had to pick up eight cards. Instead of doing so, she threw all her cards on the table and then flipped the table. Yujin always had great sportsmanship.
âUgh, Yuuuu, the gameeeee."
"The game stinks. Iâm thirsty; Iâm getting some drinks."
"Loser, youâre just scared about losing the game."
âI can't hear you. Youâre too far away!â She scurried off, heading toward the schoolâs vending machine. Her friends were right, but she couldnât just admit defeat.
Counting the coins in her pocket, Yujin skipped her way toward the vending machineâs. Before she could fully enter the room, she noticed a tall, slender figure standing in front of her. She knew that gorgeous flowing brown hair from anywhere. It was Jang Wonyoung. Her name was known all around the school.
After having a long debate with herself on whether she should disturb the goddess, which is Wonyoung, Yujin realized that she was too thirsty to even care. But before she could walk in, she heard Wonyoung whisper to herself.
"Fuck, Iâm 25 cents short."
Yujin gasped. Sheâd never expected to hear Wonyoung curse; she always seemed so ladylike and elegant. But I guess even princesses have their off days?
Yujinâs gasp, unfortunately, was not silent. As Wonyoung whipped her head around to see who was there, Yujin didnât have time to hide herself. She began to panic and could only let out the words:
"25 cents!"
Wonyoung cocked her head to the side, in confusion.
Yujin cleared her throat and stood up straight.
âUm, I have a quarter, if you need it? I already had so much water, Iâm practically pissing myself! It should go to someone who needs it more.â Yujin grinned, showing all her teeth. She tried hard not to make it seem like she was nervous.
Wonyoung's face darkened for a second, but she quickly turned back to her princess-like smile.
"No need, gorgeous, I got it covered."
"Are you sure? Didnât you just say you needed a quarter?"
"Iâm fine. Do I look like a charity case to you? I can afford a water bottle.â Her tone was much less polite than the first time.
"Woah! I didnât say all of that. Look, if youâre missing a quarter, you could just say that; there's no need to get all snarky. Arenât you supposed to be like mega rich or something anyway?â
Wonyoungâs tone became even more aggressive.
"I said I can afford it. Who the fuck are you? Whatâs your problem? You just come up here assuming Iâm poor; well, Iâm not. I could probably afford your entire home with my shoes alone. So just run along, little one; stop bothering the big kids."
Yujin was taken aback. She was speechless. All she could do to retaliate was throw a quarter at Wonyoung and run away. That was her first encounter with Wonyoung, but certainly not her last.
_______________________________________________
In fact, Yujinâs next encounter with Wonyoung happened less than 24 hours later.
She was always known to roam around the halls after school hours. Jimin would be at volleyball practice while Y/n went to tutoring, so Yujin was left alone for an hour and a half every once in a while. Sure, she could just go home. But what fun would that be? Sheâd rather wait for her best buddies to walk with her.
Yujin has the same route sheâd walk every time she stayed alone.
First, she visited her physics class pet. Charlie the Chinchilla. She would pet him, and heâd almost always bite her. Charlie was not friendly.
This then led her to her next destination, the nurse's office! Greeting her with the same faint smile, Yujin picked up the various colored bandages to cover up her Chinchilla bite.
Lastly, sheâd make her way downstairs to watch Jimin practice volleyball in the schoolâs gym. Heading downstairs, Yujin took her time, admiring the schoolâs graffiti on the stairway walls. But this time it wasnât her usual quiet stroll downstairs. She heard various sounds coming from the 2nd-floor stairwell. Being the curious puppy she is, Yujin softly walked up the stairs to check out the high school's newest romantic entanglement.
Slightly poking her head out of the staircase, Yujin squinted her eyes and tippy-toed to get a good view. Her vision became clear, and she got a good look at the couple. Yujinâs eyes quickly went from squinted to wide-open. She gasped as she realized what she was looking at.
Was it Wonyoung and Yeonjun?
Realizing the pair that was in front of her, Yujin tripped on her own two feet and began to fall down a flight of stairs.
"Ah Fuck!"
"Whoâs there? You, Werido, are you trying to get a good look for your spank bank?" Yujin recognized the voice. It was Yeonjun.
"Itâs you again; you're that girl from the vending machine." There came the other voice of the pair; it was Wonyoung, and she was staring right down at Yujin.
Trying to recover from the great fall she just had, Yujin let out a stuttered:
"N-No! I promise, I just heard noises and came to see."
"Thatâs the literal definition of being a weird pervert.â
Yujin couldnât find a good excuse for herself, so she did what she does best. She ran away. Straight into the second bathroom.
Quickly slamming the door behind her, she let out a deep breath of air. Yujin frantically started pacing around. What was she going to do? Surely she had seen something she wasnât supposed to. Was Wonyoung out to get her now? She closed her eyes, thinking of the various ways she could attempt to get out of this situation, until she felt a cold, wet towel on her knee.
"That was a big fall you took; your kneeâs bleeding."
Yujin quickly opened her eyes. Was Wonyoung cleaning up her knee?
"Sorry for Yeonjunâs harsh words; heâs kind of an idiot."
"No, itâs my fault; I shouldnât have watched; it was weird."
"I probably wouldâve done the same; donât worry, really.â Wonyoungâs voice sounded sweet. It was a complete 180 from the yelling she had done at the vending machines. She had a look of sincerity on her face.
"Um, you know I wonât tell anyone about anything. But donât you think maybe Ning should know that Yeonjun and you are... Since you guys are like best friends, and thatâs her boyfriend? Maybe you can talk it out? Share custody of him? Just my opinion though, I think Iâd like to know." Yujinâs words trailed off. She couldnât even fully register what sheâd seen, let alone say it in words. Yet she still felt obligated to give her opinion. Itâs true that Ningning wasnât the most kind person, but even she didnât deserve to get backstabbed.
As Wonyoung took out a bandage to put on Yujinâs knee, she felt Wonyoungâs hands shake.
"Um, Wonyoung?" She bent down to Wonyoungâs level and saw tears in her eyes.
"I messed up. Big time, Iâm such a shitty person.â Her words were spiraling out, and tears were flowing out of her eyes. Yujin didnât know what to do.
"Oh, no, hey, youâre not. Everyone kisses their friend's boyfriend sometimes.â No, they do not.
"No, not that. This isnât even the first time. Heâs not even her boyfriend. Yeonjunâs just pretending to like her, so sheâll keep paying off his stuff.â At this point, it was obvious that Wonyoung had pent-up emotions that she needed to let out. Yujin tried to keep her reactions to herself and kept quiet so as to let Wonyoung keep talking.
"And Iâm no better than he is. You know, I try to tell myself that I care about her. That Ningâs my best friend, but how can I believe that when my friendship with her didnât even start for the right reasons? You were right, okay? I am poor. I have no money. There, are you happy? I was counting quarters and couldnât afford a water bottle. I only yelled at you because I thought you would tell everyone, and word would eventually get to Ning. I need her in my life. Without her, Iâd just be some low-level poverty case with no friends looking for a handout. After a while, I really did start seeing her as my friend. But now here I am, making out with her boyfriend. Whatâs wrong with me?â Wonyoung sobbed on the bathroom floor.
Yujin didnât know what to do. Why was Wonyoung spilling her guts out to her? Was it really out of guilt?
"Listen, Iâll just forget I saw anything, really. Iâll forget the kissing Ningningâs boyfriend and the quarter thing. I promise." Yujin was hugging Wonyoung at this point. She wanted nothing more than to get out of this situation, but she couldn't just leave Wonyoung on the bathroom floor. Sure, what she did was messed up, but she had her reasons, and she clearly showedâŚ..remorse?Â
"Aw, how sweet of you! Youâd do that for little old me? Then how about I pay you back? Anytime you need a favor, itâs on me! Anytime sweetie." Wonyoungâs tears dried up in an instant, and her usual chipper tone came back. Almost as if nothing had happened.
Yujin never thought of a time when she would call upon the evil terror of Wonyoung, but I guess it was a nice thing to have. Besides, even if she did want to tell Ningning, would she even believe her? There's no way sheâd believe Yujin over her best friend, Wonyoung.
âOk, Deal."
_______________________________________________
"No, Iâm going to do it, Yujin; Iâm going to confess at the graduation party."
Yujin sat against the wall outside of the schoolâs gymnasium, pondering back at Y/N's words toward her. She winced at the thought of Y/N getting shot down by Jimin. Their friendship was important to Yujin; she couldnât risk breaking it apart. It was all she had.
But what could she do to fix this? She could only accept the impending doom of their trio.
"Whatâs wrong, cutie? You seem distressed.
Yujin turned her head to see the schoolâs princess. Her flowing hair was never out of place. A soft smile is always on her face.
"Oh, Wonyoung! Itâs nothing. Just thinking things, I guess." She nervously chuckled; she had never really interacted with Wonyoung since that day. But Wonyoung did always greet her in the halls, much to the confusion of others.
"Sugarplum, you can talk to me. Weâre secret buddies! Whatâs bothering you?â I guess it couldnât hurt venting to her? I mean, she was rightâyou were secret buddies, technically?
"Um, well, itâs just that.... you know Jimin, right? And Y/n?"
"Your cutie-pie friends, yup!"
"Yeah, them, well, Y/N kinda, sorta, maybe has a huge ginormous crush on Jimin. And Y/N is kind of confessing at the party. I have no clue what to do, Wonyoung. I feel like Iâm losing them. If Jimin rejects them, then itâll be awkward between Jimin and Y/N. Itâll be like having divorced parents; Iâll have to choose! Either Jimin, the international superstar of Spring Hill High, who will surely make other friends in no time, Or Y/N, the known introvert, who probably only hangs out with me because she canât be in a room alone with Jimin for more than two seconds without possibly fainting. So once Jiminâs out of the equation, theyâll have no real reason to hang out with me. On the other hand, if Jimin accepts, then Iâll be a third wheel. Always in the way of their lovey-dovey relationship. I donât know which one is worse. Either way, it feels like Iâm left all alone."
âAw, honey, thatâs quite the conundrum! How can I help? You still have a Wony favor to call in?"
"What, no? I canât just medal in their lives."
"You sure? Offers never expiring!â
"Iâm sure."
_______________________________________________
Yujin was not sure.
It was the night of the graduation party, and she was positive that the only way to stop this rejection from happening was by getting Wonyoung involved.
She walked up to Wonyoung and uttered:
"Could I ask a favor from you?"
Wonyoungâs eyes lit up in delight.
"I thought youâd never ask Buttercup!" Wonyoung quickly grabbed onto Yujinâs hand and guided her around the party area. She led her to Ninging, where she was comfortably sitting on Yeonjunâs lap. Yujin shuttered.
"Ew, is this a charity case? Why is she here, Wony?â Ninging glanced at Yujin, looking her up and down. Wonyoung ignored her comment and dragged Ningning by the hand to a quieter part of the party.
"Ning, Yujin has something to ask you. Go ahead, buttercup!"
Yujin gulped as Ninging started her down.
"Um, could you help me? Try to save my friend from embarrassment.â
"Again, ew, why would I help trash like you?"
Wonyoung put a hand on Yujinâs shoulder.
"Yujin, donât be so worried; Iâll tell her for you if youâre too nervous. Ningning, Yujinâs caught her friend Y/N kissing Yeonjun yesterday. I know this probably isnât the place to tell you, but she thought you should know. She even has a perfect plan to get her back!"
Ningningâs face went from annoyed to hurt. She looked like she was about to cry. While Yujinâs face went as pale as a ghost, She didnât expect Wonyoung to lie. Was this really the only way to save your trio?
"Is this true?â Ningning asked.
Yujin took a deep breath, but before she could answer, Wonyoung cut her off.
"Iâm afraid, darling. But do you see Jimin there? Y/N's so in love with her! I bet you could break their heart just like they hurt yours. ~"
"Iâll make that bitch regret ever touching him."
Ningning walked away to throw a drink at Yeonjunâs face, then marched up to Jimin to give her the proposition. To which Jimin obliged.
Yujin watched the whole ordeal go down and felt a whisper in her ear that sent shivers down her spine. It was Wonyoungâs voice going from sweet to the same cold-aggressive tone she once used at the vending machines.
âIt looks like weâre both shitty people, arenât we? It looks like youâre stuck with me, sweetheart. ~"
_______________________________________________
âSo, thatâs how everything went down. Thatâs how Wonyoung and I met, and how I set up the Ningning-Jimin kiss. Thatâs everything Iâve kept hidden from you guys, I promise.â
âYujin, What the fuck.â
