Chapter 7 Stay Away!

**Night

The 'S' stars were on their way back to their apartment when Sophie's phone started ringing.

"Oppa (Older brother)." She muttered as she clicked the button to answer the call.

"Soo-jung..." Her brother's voice trailed off as he sniffled.

Sophie stopped walking as she tried to figure out why her brother's crying. The other three also stopped.

"Oppa gwaenchana?? (Brother are you okay??)" Sophie asked, as her brother sniffled again.

"Appa (father), he slumped some minutes ago, and the doctor said he has developed a cardiac arrest." His brother, Seo-young said.

She felt her knees getting weak, and she started going down until she felt her knees touching the ground.

"Oppa, it's okay. I'll be there soon." She managed to say as her voice was trailing off.

"Ani (No), don't come, it's already late. You should come when the day breaks tomorrow." Seo-young said, and she nodded as she sniffled.

"Arraseo (Alright)." She muttered and he hung up. Sophie was sobbing silently as her friends consoled her.

Christine was heading to the prep class when he saw the 'S' stars.

He noticed that the other three girls are consoling Sophie.

'What's wrong with her?? Is she hurt??' He asked himself as he stared continuously at them.

Christine wanted to just walk away but his mind is telling him not to go.

'Now what do I do?? I have no choice.' He said in mind and walked towards the 'S' stars.

"Hey Sophie, what's the matter?? Why are you crying?? Is everything alright??" He asked when he got there.

Sophie raised her head to look at him, and she stood up when she realized that it's Christine.

"How is that your business?? Do you think I need your help?? No, you can never sort out anything even if I tell you what really happened. So get lost!" Sophie said, and started walking away.

"Hey hold on, why do you hate me so much?? I was only trying to help you if you need any help, but here you are, saying bad words to me instead of being humble. What's the problem??" He asked, and Sophie stopped.

"You're my problem and I can't seem to get rid of you. Like I said earlier, get lost." She said, and walked away.

"I was just trying to help. I didn't mean to offend you okay?? It's fine if you don't want to tell me." Christine said after her, but she pretended not to hear as she kept on walking.

"I know that you like her, but why don't you just stop trying already?? She'll never accept to be yours because none of us are ready to be in a relationship, so just stop it already." Stella said, and also walked away.

"I support what Stella said. You need to stop it now, before it's too late. Love isn't ordinary as you think." Selena said, and followed suit.

"Look here Man, it must have been really hard for you as you're trying to make her love you, but I'll advice you to demolish the feelings, it's just a mere crush, I know. So stop it like they said." Samantha said, and left also.

"What the fvck are they all saying?? Why would I have feelings for her when I have Soo-ah?? I guess we can never be friends since they don't like my good side. It's alright, let's keep on the bad terms between us then." Christine said to himself, and he went on his way.

The Next Day**

@ The Library**

Christine and Yeon were both searching for books to read when the 'S' stars entered.

Christine sighted Sophie coming towards where they both (him and Yeon) are, and a thought crept into his head.

'If you can't express your love now with what I'll do, then you're a freaking ässhole.' Christine said in his inner mind, and dropped the book he was holding.

He waited a little bit for Sophie to get more closer, and when he was satisfied, he pushed Yeon towards her, and they both collided into each other.

Yeon was fast enough to hold himself back from falling, but Sophie couldn't.

She almost fell but Christine quickly got hold of her, and pulled her closer.

She was really scared and when she opened her eyes, she got really surprised when she saw Christine in front of her.

His hand was still on her waist, and her hand also was still round his neck. They were really closed to the extent that they're feeling each other's breath.

This is the second time something like this would happen.

Seeing the look on her face, Christine smiled and she pushed him away.

"I said it that you like me, you wouldn't deny it now that you're making it obvious. You're trying really hard to get my attention each fvcking chance you got. Is it a must?! This would be my last warning to you, STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Sophie yelled, and without taking whatever she came to get, she walked out of the library.

Yeon watched as she walked out of sight, and he faced Christine.

"Is it true that you like her??" He asked, and Christine chuckled.

"Why the fvck would I like her when I have a girlfriend?? I know how much you love her, and that's why I'm doing all this for you dude. I pushed you on purpose, because I know that it's either you both fall down with one on top of the other, or she will almost fall and you'll hold her before she falls just like the way I did now, but you were too slow and that's why I did that... I can't believe you actually think that I love her, maybe in my next life." Christine said, and took the book he got, and also walked out.

Yeon stood at a spot as he watched him leave, and he sat down.

'Is he telling me the truth?? Should I believe him?? What if he likes her and he's trying to make it look like he's helping me?? What if Sophie end up liking him instead of me??... God! This is...'
