The Cold Little Prince

Part III: Between Duty and Him

This morning Yuna did not look as relaxed as usual. He had come since six o'clock for the sake of copying all Ahn Yujin's tasks without even giving the slightest change to the dot and comma. Yuna's custom, if Yoonbin is preferred if the task is numbered duakan.

"Gue forgot that. Sorry yeah. I've been really busy whatsapp, Yoonbin."

"Tololol really. Though it's your job," Yujin responds fiercely. "Edit dikit Yun, later we will look at each other cheating as nyokap lo."

"Liet down. I'm busy, the work won't be checked. Especially for the students in semester I. The ancient part is really giving the task of hand-written gini. Curly my hand anyay."

Yujin rolled her eyes. Yuna is beautiful and her way is balanced. Lucky Yujin who is BFF a.k.a bestfriend forever Yuna entered the same department. Otherwise, surely Yuna's college life is more chaotic than it is today.

"Eh Yun, that's your future priest, isn't it?" yujin's question stopped Yuna's activities.

"Where?!"

Yujin directs Yuna's face at a pair of guys and girls who go hand in hand. The girl chuckled as she threw some questions at the guy who had a cold face. Yuna's heart is heating up.

"Who the hell is that gatel chick? Very good with Yoonbin!"

"He's Somi's sister, right? I thought they broke up."

Yuna immediately snorted with a sour expression and a careless heartache.

"Sister Yoonbin never told me she had a girl" Yuna tried to defend herself.

Yujin who was sitting opposite him smiled mockingly.

"Emang lo ready until he has to say his sexual life is the same lo? Whatsapp lo aja he did not reply right," Yujin's words managed to drop Yuna's spirit to the lowest point.

Holding back her tears Yuna replied, "But she still read Jin."

"Only in read it. Realize Yuna, she doesn't like you."

Yuna's tears. She started crying. Mending if the cry is slow, the problem is that Yuna is crying so fast that the entire canteen looks at her. Yujin panicked.

"Woy****don't cry! Umpathize, shame Yun shame. Cup cup cup," whispered Yujin as she stroked the top of Yuna's head.

Yuna's cry grew even louder. The canteen mother was ready to approach and calm the campus prima donna. Genuine, Yuna is that famous. Until another faculty boy came just to see Yuna in person. The only person who is not captivated may be Yoonbin who is currently standing behind Yuna. He slowly clings to Yuna's head until the girl complains and looks up at her.

"Whisper," he said briefly.

Yuna looked at the guy with a pushy look. Yoonbin pulled up the chair next to Yuna, preparing to sit on it. But Yuna's hand prevented it.

"Don't sit here!" snapped Yuna.

The confused Yoonbin was silent, not understanding Yuna's words.

"Tumben he doesn't want to deket me," inner Yoonbin.

Yoonbin grinned. Yuna looked at him in annoyance.

"That means me."

"Whose important person to me is just Yoonbin's brother? Just don't!" Yuna still spoke in a high tone.

"Keep who?"

Yoonbin's question made Yuna speechless. Who is more important than Yoonbin to Yuna? The answer doesn't exist.

Yuna's gaze was intending the entire canteen. Yoonbin was still waiting with a feeling of confidence. There can't be a guy who can shift it in Yuna's heart.

Yuna gave a small smile as her gaze came to a halt on the tall and handsome figure of a man who was walking towards them. He doesn't know, but who cares. Yoonbin will not know him either. Yuna knew Yoonbin was anti-social.

"Look, sit here!" peek Yuna while grabbing the guy's hand. Without any agreement Yuna forced the guy to sit next to her.

Leisurely and confidently Yuna looked at Yoonbin who was now standing stiffly next to her.

"Know, my boy."

Yujin patted his forehead. Frustrated with the stupidity of his best friend. Fortunately Yujin also loves Yuna, if not she had lived long ago.

Yoonbin smiled sneered. Yuna must have thought Yoonbin would believe her ridiculous statement. But Yoonbin isn't stupid like Yuna.

"Lo want me to believe? Yuna, he's my classmate. Lin, 0 yeah this is a hot chick."

Yuna's eyes widened. He looked at that guy named Guanlin shyly. Guanlin who was confused was seen to spread a sweet smile that was appreciated by many women. Who doesn't love a handsome, charming, romantic guy like Guanlin?

"Sorry," Yuna muttered very quietly.

Still with a smile on his handsome face without any gaps, Guanlin suddenly grabbed Yuna's hand then kissed the smooth back of the hand. Just contact Yuna, Yujin, especially Yoonbin was wide-eyed in disbelief. What do they have in common?

"Yuna and I are dating."

Guanlin's speech sent Yuna into endless confusion. Yoonbin, meanwhile, had her heart throbbing with pain from the confession she had just heard. Yuna is not a free woman as she always thought.

"Sister..."

"Congratulations, yes" said Yoonbin cutting off Yuna's words. "Gue to class first, bye."

Yuna's gaze followed Yoonbin's footsteps. He looked at her sadly. Throughout her 18 years of life, perhaps this was the first time Yuna regretted her carelessness. Now Yoonbin is getting harder for him to reach.
