We walked side by side at the side of the road. After a few hours of wasting time in cafe, we decided to take a walk for a while before we go home.

I plugged in my earphones and decided to choose a song. I scrolled down my playlist, finding a song that suits the moments.

Suddenly, my left earphone was pulled from my ear.

' Don't you dare listen to songs without me!' Anne pouted at me like a little kid.

' Okay. Okay. But don't complain if you only hear kpop songs. It's not my faults.'

' It's okay to change my taste sometimes.'

I played my favourite song for this moments to cheer me up or maybe to impress Anne a little bit. Just a little.

Take me to the sky oh woah oh

Anne opened her mouth and raise her eyebrows at me. She's pretending to be shocked. What a drama queen.

Put your hands up in the sky

' HELL Yeah. I AM!' Anne yelled loudly because she was too excited. She's always like this. Causing people to turned their heads toward us.

Even if she's alone, she's still doing it. Catching everyone's attention. The thing was she embarrassed herself and people were annoyed just by looking at her. Sadly, me being her only best friend that won't ever leave her side even if she decided to kill somebody had to take the blame on what she did too.

My friend here. She's always at the center of attention. She's the rebel one. She has never cared about what other people talk or think about her and that's why she always do what she wants to do. Because she doesn't let anyone rules her. She doesn't let anyone controls her. But to be honest, sometimes she did something that beyond limitations and I really hate her when she did that.

While me, I am completely opposite. I am not at the center of attention. I am the stickler of the rules. I cared about first impressions. I cared about what other people think or talk. I thought I cared because I want to keep a good reputation. But a little part of me said that maybe just maybe, I let them control my world.

Yo J let's do it

' Who's J?'

My mind was interrupted by Anne's voice.

' Huh?'

' J?'

'J?'

' The song? Yo J let's do it' She tried to imitate RM's voice in that song which cause her a lot of efforts cause we all know how deep his voice is.

I laughed a little and rolled my eyes.

' You mean J-hope?'

' I don't know.'

Take me to the sky

' oh the beats are about to drop?'

I looked at her with disgusting looks.

If my wings could fly

Anne pretended to be shocked. Again. Then, she did a chicken dance.

' Damn, this is not my cup of tea but it sounds delicious.'

I gave her incredulous looks. When will she ever stop making stupid jokes.

점점 무거워지는 공기를 뚫고 날아

She stopped dancing and didn't move.

' Oh shit. The beats are about to drop.'

Spread spread spread my wings

She lifted her arms and move it upside down.

I widened my eyes at her and quickly looked around to see if there are people looking at us. Before I had time to look, Anne already ran and sang 'la la la la la' with her arms moving like she could fly.

My eyes bulged with my mouth gaped open.

What the fuck does she thinks?!

I glanced at people surrounded us who started whispering and gave Anne disapproving looks. Some of them were trying so hard not to laugh out loud causing their faces to turn red.

I bowed my head and looked at my shoes. Should I stop her?

This little shit.

I stopped her. It took me at least 30 minutes to run after her to stop her from humiliating herself in public. This ain't something new. I've been doing this job for 9 years anyway. She never thanked me though. I saved her life for all these years. How ungrateful can someone be.

I opened the door of my house and closed it. I slammed my body to the back of the door to catch my breath. Stopping Anne was not that tired but running after her because she thought I want to catch her was so exhausting. Not to forget that people were watching us like we're some kind of wasted teenagers.

Out of the blue, I saw another pair of shoes in front of my black sneakers.

' Where did you go , seed?'

Dan folded his arms and stood in front of me. He had this serious face that makes him looked funny. Funny and pretty. Pretty horrifying.

I stared at him and blinked my eyes for a few times. I waited for him to blink but he did not for at least forty seconds. oh shit. He's serious.

I rolled my eyes and kicked my sneakers towards the shoes stand. I walked past him without looking at him. I know that he's worried but sometimes it made me feel uneasy because he never trusted me as his sister. He even followed me from behind when I said I want to meet Anne. Of course he kept his distance 3 meters away from me.

It's not like I can't sense when someone's following me.

It's unbelievable. He went beyond his limits sometimes.

' Seed, I'm asking right?'

' Yes, Dan. I went out with Anne. That's all'

' That's all? You went out with Anne 4 hours ago, Seed. Did you look at the time? What time is it? Look outside, Seed. Does it looks bright to you?'

' Dan, s-'

' Did you even check your phone, seed? I called you so many times and you didn't pick up.'

' Dan, I didn't notice, okay. Anne was acting crazy so I had to control her.'

I tried to explain it as calm as possible. I might be pissed-

' Seriously? That's all? Is it so hard for you to call or message me? Or did you went out with a guy?'

' Dan, stop it. You knew I didn't. Even if I did, there's nothing wrong. I'm 17 for heaven's sake, Dan. Or might I add that I'm turning 18 this year? Why are you so paranoid?'

' You're 17? You're turning 18?' He raised his voice and started to laugh.

I am very annoyed right now.

' Because you're just 17, seed ! You don't know anything!'

Seriously? He wants to do this now?
