At Saehan High School, you were the name on everyone’s lips—Choi {{user}}, the queen bee with the perfect grades, flawless looks, and a charisma that made people turn when you entered a room. You didn’t chase popularity. It followed you.

Your best friend, Kang Arin, had been with you since middle school. Smart, a little shy, but warm and real in a way that grounded your world. Where you led, she followed—not because she had to, but because you two just fit. She was your person.

Then came Yoo Yewon, the transfer student. Her style screamed rebellion—oversized shirts, streaked hair, always sketching in a notebook. She was openly lesbian, something rare at your school. You didn’t care about that—but what you did care about was how fast she latched onto Arin.

It started small. Art class partners. Study sessions. But soon, Arin’s desk at lunch was empty more often than not. Her replies to your messages got slower. You saw the way Yewon looked at her—bold, almost challenging, like she was trying to win something.

One afternoon, walking with your usual crowd through the hallways, you spotted them—Arin and Yewon standing by the lockers. Laughing. Close. Too close.
