The next day, Ji Ho arrived a little ter than usual to css. Normally, he's the first one there. Even though the bell hadn't rung yet, he was slower than his usual time. As he walked towards the cssroom, he noticed Do Yun standing outside near the door. Ji Ho looked down and entered through the opposite door. Do Yun was taken aback by his behaviour. "He just turned his face away from me," he muttered to himself before entering the css and approaching Ji Ho.

  "Hey, Kim Ji Ho, you're te today," he asked.

  "So what," Ji Ho replied, grabbing his book and starting to read.

  "Well, are you..."

  "Listen," Ji Ho interrupted Do Yun's words. "If you don't have anything else to say, please go back to your seat. I need to read."

  Do Yun took his seat and waited for the css to begin. Throughout the lesson, he couldn't help but keep his eyes on Ji Ho, who didn't even gnce back at him once. This made Do Yun feel uneasy.

  "Why is he acting like this? He doesn't seem to be in a good mood. And for some reason, it's bothering me," he muttered to himself.

  During the break, Do Yun approached Ji Ho, looking visibly frustrated.

  "Ji Ho, come outside. I need to talk to you."

  "I can't, I have things to do," Ji Ho replied.

  Do Yun closed Ji Ho's book abruptly. "Forget about your book," he said firmly as he took Ji Ho's hand. "Just come with me when I ask nicely," he insisted, pulling him along.

  Ji Ho and Do Yun headed up to the rooftop. As they reached the top, Do Yun's expression turned angry. However, when he noticed Ji Ho's worried face, he calmed down.

  "What's wrong, Ji Ho? You look worried. Is everything okay?" Do Yun asked softly.

  "I'm fine," Ji Ho replied, avoiding eye contact.

  "I asked nicely. It's bothering me, Ji Ho. Please tell me."

  "Why do you care? Don't do this. It won't end well."

  "What are you saying?"

  Ji Ho lowered his gaze and confessed, "Do Yun, I've spent my whole life hiding the fact that I'm gay. I'm not ready to come out yet. And now that you've noticed, I'm scared that if we become lovers, it will cause you trouble," Ji Ho confessed, looking at him. "Do Yun... just forget about me. I'm a coward and I'm not a good choice for you. I don't even have friends and I can't do anything good for you." Ji Ho's voice trembled as he spoke, tears streaming down his face.

  "What!" Do Yun excimed, shocked by Ji Ho's words. He moved closer to him.

  "I am nobody. I don't..."

  Do Yun rushed forward and embraced Ji Ho tightly. "Just stop it, Ji Ho. Just stop it. I'm sorry, I didn't realize it would affect you this much. I’m really sorry"

  Up until that day, he was all about winning the bet, but once he sees Ji Ho's genuine feelings, Do Yun starts to understand what love really means.
