Chapter 6 – Wait… You Live Here?! The School Festival had finally ended. Students slowly left campus, laughing and carrying prizes, snacks, and souvenirs. Jennie adjusted her silver headphones around her neck as she walked toward the student dorms. Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs rested neatly over her oversized black hoodie. She wore baggy black cargo pants with silver chains, black-and-white high-top sneakers, and carried her backpack over one shoulder. “Finally…” “Peace and quiet.” ⸻ Across campus, Felix headed toward the same building. His soft black hair was slightly messy after spending the entire day running the basketball booth. He wore his black-and-red varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and white basketball sneakers. A duffel bag hung over his shoulder while he lazily spun a basketball in one hand. “My bed…” “I’ve missed you.” ⸻ Walking behind him was Han. His soft brown hair stuck up in every direction after running around the festival all day. He wore his oversized dark green hoodie under a denim jacket, relaxed black jeans, and worn white sneakers. He was carrying three bags of leftover festival snacks. “I stole—” Jisoo looked at him. “You what?” Han corrected himself. “I legally rescued these snacks.” ⸻ Rosé and Lisa walked together. Rosé’s long lavender hair flowed over her oversized lavender cardigan. She wore ripped blue jeans and chunky white boots while carrying a small speaker. Lisa’s long ash-blonde hair with bangs bounced as she skipped beside her. She wore her black bomber jacket, a graphic T-shirt, baggy cargo pants, and colorful sneakers. Lisa grinned. “I can’t believe Jennie actually smiled today.” Rosé smiled. “It lasted about half a second.” ⸻ Jisoo followed behind them. Her long dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream knit sweater, a black pleated skirt, black tights, and ankle boots. “I saw it too.” Lisa gasped dramatically. “We witnessed history.” ⸻ Hyunjin walked with his suitcase. His long blond hair looked perfect even after a full day at the festival. He wore an oversized cream sweater, black wide-leg trousers, layered silver necklaces, and clean sneakers. He looked up at the dorm building. “Home…” “…but make it fashionable.” Han sighed. “How do you make a building fashionable?” Hyunjin smiled. “You simply exist near it.” ⸻ The seven students walked toward the entrance. Jennie reached the front door first. She unlocked it. Stepped inside. Kicked off her shoes. “…Finally.” She walked into the living room— —and froze. There… Standing in the kitchen… Was Felix. He froze too. “…” “…” “…Why are you in my dorm?” Jennie asked. Felix frowned. “Your dorm?” “This is my dorm.” Jennie crossed her arms. “No.” “It literally is.” Felix pointed at the couch. “My bag is here.” Jennie pointed at the hallway. “My room is here.” Before either of them could say another word… Han walked in carrying his mountain of snacks. He looked at both of them. “Oh.” He slowly backed toward the door. “I’m coming back later.” “No, you’re not!” Jennie and Felix shouted. Han grinned. “Okay… this is funny.” ⸻ Rosé, Lisa, Jisoo, and Hyunjin walked in a few seconds later. Lisa looked around. “…Wait.” She looked at Jennie. “You didn’t know?” Jennie blinked. “Know what?” Rosé tilted her head. “The principal combined the dorms yesterday.” Jennie slowly turned toward Felix. Felix slowly turned toward Jennie. Jisoo quietly nodded. “You’re roommates now.” Silence. Complete… Absolute… Silence. Then— “WHAT?!” Jennie and Felix yelled so loudly that everyone in the hallway stopped walking. Han nearly dropped all his snacks laughing. “I KNEW THEY DIDN’T KNOW!” ⸻ Jennie pointed at Felix. “I am not sharing a dorm with Basketball.” Felix pointed back. “And I’m not sharing one with DJ Disaster.” Jennie gasped. “DJ Disaster?” Felix shrugged. “It sounded cool.” Jennie smiled. “Basketball Boy.” Felix. “Headphone Queen.” Jennie. “Free Throw Failure.” Felix. “Playlist Goblin.” Jennie. “Varsity Jacket Advertisement.” Felix. “Walking Volume Warning.” Han clapped. “THEY’RE FREESTYLING!” Lisa quickly pulled out her phone. “I’m writing these down.” Rosé laughed so hard she had to sit on the couch. Even Jisoo covered her mouth to hide a smile. Hyunjin nodded dramatically. “This…” “…is the greatest plot twist of the year.” ⸻ Just then, the dorm supervisor walked in. “Good evening, everyone.” He smiled. “I hope you’re all settling in.” Jennie immediately raised her hand. “I have a complaint.” Felix raised his hand too. “So do I.” The supervisor looked at them. “Too bad.” He handed them a paper. Dorm Assignment Room 204 Occupants: Jennie & Felix Jennie stared at the paper. Felix stared at the paper. Han leaned over. “So…” He grinned. “You two are officially roommates.” Jennie and Felix looked at each other. Then looked away at exactly the same time. “This is going to be the worst year ever.” They both said it together. Lisa burst into laughter. “Oh…” “This is going to be the best year ever.”
Chapter 3 – Detention… Together? The next morning, the school was already loud. Everyone was talking about the same thing. Jennie and Felix. The school’s coolest DJ and its basketball star had officially become the school’s funniest rivalry. ⸻ Jennie walked through the hallway with her long black hair falling smoothly over her shoulders, styled with soft curtain bangs like her famous “Ice Cream” and “How You Like That” looks. She wore an oversized charcoal hoodie, loose black cargo pants with silver chains, and black-and-white high-top sneakers. Her silver headphones rested around her neck, ready for whenever inspiration hit. She was the school’s legendary DJ. And also the person most likely to destroy someone’s confidence with one sentence. ⸻ Felix entered from the gym hallway, carrying his basketball. His soft black hair was slightly messy from practice, falling naturally over his forehead. He wore a black-and-red varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, relaxed black athletic pants, and clean white basketball sneakers. He was the captain of the basketball team. Popular. Talented. And still confused why Jennie didn’t think he was impressive. ⸻ Walking beside Felix was Han. Han’s soft brown hair was slightly messy, with a few strands sticking up like he had rushed out of bed. His expressive eyes always gave away when he was about to make a joke. He wore an oversized dark green hoodie layered under a denim jacket, relaxed black jeans, and comfortable white sneakers. His backpack hung from one shoulder, usually filled with random snacks, notebooks, and things nobody understood why he carried. Han was the school’s unofficial comedian. He loved drama. Especially when the drama involved Jennie and Felix arguing. ⸻ Near the music room, Rosé adjusted her headphones. Her long lavender hair fell in soft waves down her back. She wore an oversized lavender cardigan over a white T-shirt, ripped light-blue jeans, and chunky white boots. Her style was relaxed but artistic, matching her love for music. She smiled when she saw Jennie. “This is going to be interesting.” ⸻ Lisa appeared beside her with a mischievous grin. Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face perfectly. She wore an oversized black bomber jacket, a graphic T-shirt, baggy cargo pants, and colorful sneakers. Lisa loved chaos. And Jennie and Felix provided plenty. “I give them five minutes before they fight.” Rosé looked at her. “Five?” Lisa nodded. “Okay. Three.” ⸻ Jisoo walked toward class carrying her books. Her long dark red hair was neatly styled, shining under the hallway lights. She wore a cream knit sweater, black pleated skirt with black tights, and polished ankle boots. A small necklace and simple earrings completed her elegant look. She sighed. “I already know today will be exhausting.” ⸻ Leaning against a locker was Hyunjin. His long blond hair was perfectly styled, making him look like he belonged in a fashion magazine. He wore an oversized cream sweater, black wide-leg trousers, layered silver necklaces, and clean designer sneakers. He watched the hallway dramatically. “The energy today…” Everyone stared at him. “What?” Hyunjin shrugged. “It feels like the beginning of a legendary rivalry.” Han nodded. “He’s not wrong.” ⸻ Then the bell rang. History class. Everyone sat down. Mr. Kim walked in carrying a stack of papers. “Today, you will begin your group projects.” The entire class groaned. “Partners have already been chosen.” Jennie immediately looked suspicious. Felix looked nervous. Mr. Kim smiled. “Jennie and Felix.” Silence. “No.” They both said it at the same time. The class exploded. Han slammed his notebook down. “THEY AGREED ON SOMETHING!” Lisa clapped. “Historic moment.” ⸻ After class, Felix walked over. “So we have to work together.” Jennie looked up. “Unfortunately.” “You make it sound painful.” “It is.” Felix crossed his arms. “You’re impossible.” Jennie smiled. “And you’re predictable.” “How?” “Basketball. Practice. Basketball. More basketball.” Felix pointed at her. “You literally carry headphones everywhere.” “Because I make music.” “And I play basketball.” “Exactly.” Felix frowned. “What does that mean?” “It means I create something people remember.” Han gasped. “OH.” Rosé covered her mouth trying not to laugh. Felix shook his head. “You’re lucky you’re funny.” Jennie smiled. “I know.” ⸻ After school, they met in the library. Felix opened the project instructions. “We should actually work.” Jennie nodded. “Finally. A smart idea.” Felix smiled. “Was that a compliment?” “No.” “I knew it.” ⸻ Ten minutes later… Felix dropped his pencil. Jennie looked at him. “Already struggling?” “I dropped a pencil.” “Exactly.” Han whispered from another table, “She turned dropping a pencil into an insult.” Lisa nodded. “That’s talent.” ⸻ Then Felix accidentally knocked over his water bottle. It rolled into Jennie’s backpack. She opened it. Everyone waited. She pulled out… A rubber chicken. Felix stared. “Why?” Jennie looked serious. “Emergency purposes.” “What emergency requires a rubber chicken?” “Any emergency.” Han laughed so hard he almost fell out of his chair. Jisoo shook her head. “I don’t even want to know.” Hyunjin smiled. “Perfect. The rivalry has a mascot.” Felix laughed. And Jennie tried not to. But for a second… She smiled. Only a second. Nobody noticed. Except Felix.
Chapter 15 – The School Festival Disaster The rumor was supposed to disappear. That was the plan. Unfortunately… The school had other plans. ⸻ The next morning, the hallway was covered with posters. ANNUAL SCHOOL FESTIVAL – THIS FRIDAY Everyone was excited. Everyone except Jennie. ⸻ Jennie walked through the hallway with her usual cool attitude. Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore a black cropped jacket over a graphic shirt, baggy cargo pants, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones around her neck. She looked at the festival posters. “No.” ⸻ Lisa looked confused. Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black bomber jacket, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers. “No what?” “No festival.” Lisa blinked. “It’s one of the biggest events of the year.” “Exactly.” “So?” “So everyone will be annoying.” ⸻ Han walked over. His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers. “Correction.” Everyone looked at him. “Everyone will be annoying except me.” Jennie stared. “Especially you.” Han looked offended. “Wow.” ⸻ Rosé laughed. Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders, and she wore an oversized cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots. “You know you’ll have fun.” “No.” “You always say no.” “And I’m always right.” ⸻ Jisoo smiled. Her long dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots. “You’re going to participate.” Jennie looked shocked. “Why does everyone think that?” “Because we know you.” ⸻ Then Felix walked in. His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his black varsity jacket, white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and basketball sneakers. He looked at the poster. “Festival?” Jennie immediately pointed. “No.” Felix smiled. “You didn’t even let me speak.” “I know what you’re going to say.” “What?” “You’re going to say basketball.” Felix paused. “…I was.” ⸻ Everyone laughed. ⸻ Later that day, the teacher announced the festival assignments. “Every group will prepare an activity.” The class became excited. Then the teacher read: “Jennie and Felix will lead the main stage performance.” Silence. ⸻ Jennie: “No.” Felix: “Wait, what?” ⸻ Han immediately started laughing. “Oh, this is perfect.” Lisa smiled. “The universe is forcing them.” ⸻ Felix looked at Jennie. “So…” “No.” “You don’t even know what I was going to say.” “I know.” “You’re impossible.” “And you’re too confident.” ⸻ The problem was… They were actually a great team. Felix handled the crowd. Jennie handled the music. Together… They made the entire performance idea better than anyone expected. ⸻ After school, they stayed behind to practice. The gym was empty. Jennie connected her DJ equipment. Felix practiced his part. For once… They weren’t fighting. ⸻ Felix looked over. “You know…” “What?” “You’re really good at this.” Jennie looked suspicious. “Are you complimenting me?” “Yes.” “Why?” “Because it’s true.” She looked away. “That’s weird.” “You don’t like compliments?” “I don’t know what to do with them.” Felix laughed. “That explains a lot.” ⸻ Jennie smiled. Then immediately pointed at him. “Don’t get comfortable.” “There she is.” ⸻ From outside the gym door… Han, Lisa, Rosé, Jisoo, and Hyunjin were watching. Han whispered: “They’re literally acting like a couple.” Lisa smiled. “But they’ll deny it.” Hyunjin placed a hand over his heart. “The slow burn continues.” Jisoo sighed. “It’s a school festival, not a drama.” ⸻ Inside… Jennie and Felix continued practicing. Still teasing. Still competing. Still pretending they didn’t care. But everyone else knew… The festival wasn’t going to be the only thing happening that week.

Chapter 20 – The Worst Kept Secret The next morning… Jennie had one mission. Act normal. That was it. No smiling. No looking at Felix. No acting different. Simple. Except… It was impossible. ⸻ Jennie walked into the dorm kitchen. Her blonde hair was styled perfectly, and she wore a black oversized hoodie, baggy cargo pants, and black sneakers. She grabbed a drink. Everyone stared. ⸻ She stopped. “What?” Nobody answered. Jennie looked around. “Why is everyone looking at me?” ⸻ Han slowly put down his spoon. His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers. “Interesting.” Jennie narrowed her eyes. “What does that mean?” “Nothing.” “Han.” “Absolutely nothing.” ⸻ Lisa walked in. Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was perfectly styled. She wore a black bomber jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers. She looked between Jennie and Felix. Then smiled. “Oh.” Jennie immediately pointed. “No.” “I didn’t say anything.” “Your face did.” ⸻ Felix entered. His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket, white shirt, athletic pants, and basketball sneakers. The second Jennie saw him… She looked away. The second Felix saw her… He smiled. ⸻ Everyone noticed. Immediately. ⸻ Rosé walked in laughing. Her lavender hair fell over her oversized cardigan. She wore ripped jeans and white boots. “Oh no.” “What?” “They’re doing the thing.” Han nodded. “The thing.” Jennie looked confused. “What thing?” Jisoo smiled. Her dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots. “The thing where you pretend you don’t like each other.” ⸻ Jennie froze. “We don’t.” Felix answered at the same time. “We don’t.” Everyone stared. ⸻ Hyunjin entered dramatically. His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore an oversized sweater, black pants, layered necklaces, and clean sneakers. “Perfect synchronization.” Han sighed. “Please stop making everything sound like a drama.” ⸻ At school… It was even worse. Because apparently… The whole friend group had eyes. ⸻ In class, Jennie was trying to focus. The teacher was talking. The board was full of notes. Everything was normal. Until Felix passed her a note. She opened it. “You okay?” Jennie looked over. Felix smiled. She wrote back. “Why wouldn’t I be?” A few seconds later, another note came back. “Because you’re avoiding looking at me.” Jennie stared. Then wrote: “Because you’re distracting.” Felix smiled. “Good distracting?” Jennie paused. Then wrote: “Don’t push it.” ⸻ Han, sitting behind them, saw the notes. He leaned toward Lisa. “They’re literally flirting through homework.” Lisa smiled. “Should we tell them?” “No.” “Why?” “This is too funny.” ⸻ After class, Felix caught up with Jennie. “You know everyone knows something is different.” Jennie sighed. “They know everything.” “Probably.” “I hate that.” Felix smiled. “No you don’t.” Jennie looked at him. “You’re annoying.” “But?” She tried not to smile. “But…” She looked away. “You’re less annoying now.” ⸻ Felix laughed. “That might be the nicest thing you’ve ever said.” “Don’t get used to it.” “Too late.” ⸻ From across the hallway… Han watched them. “Do you think they’ll ever admit it?” Lisa shook her head. “No.” Rosé smiled. “But they don’t need to.” Jisoo nodded. “They already know.” ⸻ And that was the funniest part. Jennie and Felix spent months fighting. Roasting each other. Trying to prove they were nothing alike. But somehow… The person who annoyed them the most… Became the person they looked for first.

Chapter 17 – The Festival Countdown The school festival was only three days away. And somehow… Everything was becoming more chaotic. ⸻ The biggest problem? Everyone had discovered Jennie’s new blonde hair. And they were not letting it go. ⸻ Jennie walked through the school hallway. Her blonde hair fell in soft waves around her face, looking completely different from her old black hair. She wore a black leather jacket over a graphic shirt, baggy cargo pants, black boots, and her silver headphones around her neck. She was still Jennie. Still confident. Still impossible to embarrass. At least… That was what she thought. ⸻ “BLONDE JENNIE!” Han shouted from across the hallway. Everyone turned. Jennie stopped walking. Slowly… She looked at him. “Do you want to survive today?” Han froze. His messy brown hair stuck up, and he wore his oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers. “I was just appreciating the new look.” “You were yelling.” “Appreciating loudly.” ⸻ Lisa laughed. Her ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore her black bomber jacket, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers. “I think Han likes the new hair more than you do.” Han nodded. “It’s iconic.” Jennie rolled her eyes. “You all are dramatic.” ⸻ Rosé smiled. Her lavender hair fell over her oversized cardigan. She wore ripped jeans and white boots. “You’re secretly happy everyone likes it.” “No.” “Yes.” “No.” “Your face says yes.” Jennie immediately covered her expression. Everyone laughed. ⸻ Then Felix walked in. His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his black varsity jacket, white T-shirt, athletic pants, and basketball sneakers. He stopped when he saw Jennie. Not because he hadn’t seen the blonde hair before. But because every time he saw it… It surprised him. ⸻ Jennie noticed. “What?” Felix blinked. “Nothing.” “You stared.” “I did not.” “You did.” Han whispered: “He definitely did.” ⸻ Felix ignored him. “It just looks different.” Jennie crossed her arms. “Is that good or bad?” Felix thought. “Good.” A small smile appeared. “Really good.” ⸻ The hallway immediately exploded. Lisa covered her mouth. Rosé laughed. Han looked shocked. “He said it again.” ⸻ Jennie looked at Felix. “You know…” “What?” “You’re getting suspiciously nice.” Felix smiled. “Maybe you’re getting used to it.” She opened her mouth. Then closed it. Because she had no comeback. ⸻ Later that day… The festival team met in the gym. The stage lights were being tested. The music equipment was being set up. And Jennie and Felix were in charge. ⸻ Felix practiced his basketball performance. Jennie worked on the music. The two of them somehow worked perfectly together. Which annoyed them both. ⸻ Felix looked over. “You’re good at this.” Jennie glanced up. “At what?” “Making everything come together.” She shrugged. “It’s what I do.” “No.” He shook his head. “It’s more than that.” Jennie paused. Because Felix wasn’t joking. ⸻ Before she could respond… The speakers suddenly blasted music. Everyone jumped. Han covered his ears. “JENNIE!” “What?” “You almost destroyed my hearing.” “You’re welcome.” ⸻ Felix laughed. And Jennie smiled. ⸻ From across the gym… Lisa watched them. “They’re getting worse.” Rosé nodded. “Definitely.” Jisoo smiled. “But in a good way.” Hyunjin placed a hand over his heart. “The festival will reveal everything.” Han sighed. “It’s literally just a school event.” ⸻ But none of them knew… The festival wasn’t just going to be about music. Or basketball. Or performances. Because something was about to happen… That would change the way everyone saw Jennie and Felix.

Book 2 – Chapter 16: No Second Chances Yet The next morning… The dorm was quieter than usual. Not peaceful. Just quiet. ⸻ Jennie sat at her desk, working on her DJ setup. Her short, cool dark bob haircut framed her face perfectly, giving her that sharp, confident look everyone on campus had started recognizing. She wore a black oversized hoodie, ripped dark jeans, silver jewelry, and black boots. Her headphones rested around her neck as she adjusted the beat. ⸻ No crying. No breaking down. No showing weakness. ⸻ Jennie was back. The savage DJ queen. ⸻ Lisa walked into the room carrying snacks. Her Oreo-inspired haircut — mostly black with white strands mixed throughout — stood out as she placed the bags down. She wore a white hoodie, black cargo pants, and sneakers. She looked at Jennie. “You’re practicing again?” Jennie didn’t look up. “No.” Lisa blinked. “You’re literally holding headphones.” Jennie adjusted the music. “I’m emotionally practicing.” ⸻ Lisa laughed. “That doesn’t even make sense.” Jennie shrugged. “Neither do most people.” ⸻ Lisa smiled. There she was. ⸻ A few minutes later, Jisoo and Rosé arrived. ⸻ Jisoo walked in wearing a soft lavender sweater and jeans. Her long blonde hair with lavender-pink tips fell beautifully over her shoulders. Rosé followed behind her wearing a denim jacket over a black top with relaxed jeans. Her short blonde hair inspired by her Apatapate look was styled effortlessly. ⸻ Rosé looked at Jennie. “Are you feeling better?” Jennie paused. A tiny bit. ⸻ “Yeah.” ⸻ Jisoo smiled. “Actually answering honestly?” Jennie looked at her. “Don’t make this emotional.” ⸻ Lisa laughed. “That was basically a hug from Jennie.” ⸻ Jennie rolled her eyes. “Everyone here is dramatic.” ⸻ Practice Room ⸻ Later, everyone met for practice. ⸻ Felix arrived with his blonde hair slightly messy, wearing a black jacket, gray shirt, jeans, and white sneakers. Han walked beside him wearing a blue-and-black jacket and dark jeans. His black hair faded into blue at the bottom. Hyunjin followed wearing a stylish black outfit, his hair styled with bold red tips. ⸻ Jennie was already there. ⸻ She didn’t look up. ⸻ Felix walked closer. “Jennie.” ⸻ Nothing. ⸻ He tried again. “Can I talk to you?” ⸻ Jennie slowly removed one headphone. Looked at him. ⸻ “No.” ⸻ The room went silent. ⸻ Felix blinked. “Jennie…” ⸻ She tilted her head. “Did you suddenly forget what ‘no’ means?” ⸻ Han looked away. “Okay. Starting strong.” ⸻ Felix sighed. “I just want to explain.” ⸻ Jennie laughed. “Again?” ⸻ “I’m not trying to bother you.” ⸻ She looked him up and down. “That’s funny.” ⸻ “What?” ⸻ “Because bothering people seems to be your hidden talent.” ⸻ Han covered his laugh. Hyunjin looked impressed. ⸻ Felix frowned. “I’m serious.” ⸻ Jennie stepped closer. “So am I.” ⸻ A pause. ⸻ “You already explained.” ⸻ “I know.” ⸻ “And I already listened.” ⸻ Felix looked hopeful. ⸻ Jennie immediately ruined it. “Don’t look so excited. Listening doesn’t mean forgiving.” ⸻ Silence. ⸻ Felix looked hurt. ⸻ “I never wanted to hurt you.” ⸻ Jennie smiled coldly. “Congratulations.” ⸻ Felix frowned. “For what?” ⸻ “You managed to do it anyway.” ⸻ That one hit. ⸻ Han whispered: “That was brutal.” ⸻ Jennie turned. “Did you say something?” ⸻ Han immediately shook his head. “No.” ⸻ “Good choice.” ⸻ Hyunjin crossed his arms. “You really don’t hold back.” ⸻ Jennie looked at him. “And you really talk like you’re in a movie.” ⸻ Hyunjin froze. ⸻ Han laughed. “She got you too.” ⸻ Jennie put her headphones back on. ⸻ Felix tried one more time. “Jennie…” ⸻ She stopped. ⸻ “What?” ⸻ “I miss how we used to be.” ⸻ For one second… A tiny crack appeared. ⸻ Then Jennie closed it. ⸻ “That’s unfortunate.” ⸻ Felix looked down. ⸻ “Because I don’t miss being hurt.” ⸻ The room became quiet. ⸻ She picked up her DJ controller. ⸻ “Practice starts in five minutes.” ⸻ Felix stood there. ⸻ “Are we okay?” ⸻ Jennie looked at him. ⸻ “No.” ⸻ A pause. ⸻ “Not even close.” ⸻ Then she walked away. ⸻ Lisa watched her. She knew Jennie was still angry. But she also knew something else. ⸻ Jennie wasn’t cold because she didn’t care. She was cold because she cared too much. ⸻ And Felix? He was going to have to earn his way back. Because the savage DJ queen wasn’t opening that door again so easily.

Parallel world, Huaxia Dragon Kingdom, outside the gates of Modu University. The July breeze, carrying a hint of laziness, brushed past gently, announcing the arrival of the graduation season. Qin Yi, dressed in a black bachelor’s gown with a gray collar, held a bouquet of bright roses in his hands, seemingly unafraid of the scorching sun and indifferent to the countless curious or mocking gazes around him. His eyes were filled with a complex mix of apprehension and expectation, as if he were waiting for an unknown judgment. His gaze was locked on the school gate, silently counting the time in his heart, waiting for that familiar yet strange figure to appear. “Qin Yi, you have to promise me. When we graduate, we’ll wear our bachelor’s gowns together and take a commemorative photo at the school gate. You also have to prepare a big bouquet of roses for me, and then...” Memories flooded back like a tide, as those beautiful times spent with Su Mo replayed in Qin Yi’s mind like a movie. A smile unconsciously tugged at the corners of his mouth; those were the sweet memories that belonged to them. However, beautiful memories are always fleeting. A month ago, Su Mo suddenly initiated a breakup, without any warning or explanation. Her words were like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into Qin Yi’s heart. “Qin Yi, thank you for taking care of me these past three years and giving me a carefree time in university.” “I used to hear people say that love in university has no results. Breaking up upon graduation is a curse that no one can escape.” “Back then, I didn’t believe it. I thought you were my Prince Charming. I once dreamed that we would be together forever, from the campus to marriage...” “But only now do I understand that I was wrong, completely wrong!” “Love without material substance is like a handful of sand; it doesn’t even need the wind to blow, it just scatters after a few steps.” “So, Qin Yi, you understand what I mean. Let go! If you still love me, don’t come looking for me again.” “For the rest of my life, it will no longer be you!” “Don’t miss me! Don’t reply!” These were the last few words Su Mo had left for Qin Yi on WeChat. Since then, the WeChat chat box between Qin Yi and Su Mo was filled with nothing but one red exclamation mark after another. Today is July 1st, the day the graduates of Modu University leave the campus. Qin Yi had taken an overnight green-skinned train from his hometown of Jingnan to Modu, just to fulfill that original promise. However, the moment he stood at the school gate, he realized how foolish and ridiculous he was. ... At ten o’clock in the morning, it was exceptionally lively outside the gates of Modu University. Students dragged their suitcases out of the campus in an endless stream, their faces filled with expectation for the future and reluctance to leave the past. Among the crowd, a young man in a bachelor’s gown was particularly eye-catching; he was Qin Yi. Although the air was thick with the humidity and sweltering heat of the Plum Rain Season, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the onlookers. They gathered in small groups, their gazes focused on Qin Yi, as whispers rose and fell. “Hey, look at that guy. Isn’t that Qin Yi, the influential figure from our School of Economics?” a girl wearing glasses pointed at Qin Yi curiously and asked the classmate next to her. “Yes, yes, I remember now, it’s him!” a boy nearby added. “So it’s him. Why is he back now? Didn’t he have his graduation delayed?” a short-haired girl said curiously. “Delayed graduation? Why?” “Cough, you guys don’t know yet? It’s all over the school forum! They say Qin Yi’s family business ran into trouble and they owe a lot of money. Creditors go to his house every few days to demand payment. I heard that a while ago, his dad was even kidnapped by loan sharks and tortured quite badly...” a well-informed student said in a low voice. “Then he still dares to put on such a big show here? Isn’t he afraid the creditors will come knocking?” a tall boy joked. “Who knows, maybe he’s here for one last meeting. I heard that he and Su Mo, the department beauty of the Music Academy, have been dating since their sophomore year. Now Su Mo is really in the spotlight; I wonder if she’ll despise him.” a girl whispered. “Despise him? That’s for sure! If it were me, I would have said goodbye to him long ago. What’s the point of dating without money? It’s just a waste of youth,” a fashionably dressed girl said disdainfully. “Not necessarily. Maybe Su Mo is someone who values feelings. After all, they’ve been together for so long; there’s an emotional foundation,” a seemingly innocent girl defended Qin Yi. “Feelings? In this realistic society, can feelings put food on the table? Just wait and see, Su Mo will definitely break up with him,” a boy wearing headphones asserted coldly. The onlookers discussed fervently, each expressing their own opinions. Some sympathized with Qin Yi’s plight, while others sneered at his behavior. ... Listening to the discussions around him, Qin Yi’s heart felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer. He silently lowered his eyes, and the bouquet of roses in his hand swayed gently in the breeze, as if also recounting his loneliness and helplessness... Yeah, what am I doing back here? Ever since the family business met its Waterloo, those relatives who used to be so warm and welcoming have stayed away as if avoiding a plague, fearing they would be dragged into the turmoil. Come to think of it, Su Mo probably broke up with me for the same reason. Just as Qin Yi was torn in his heart about whether he should quietly leave, another commotion arose in the crowd... “Hey, hey, the main character is out! Want to bet? I bet the great department beauty Su will definitely break up with this kid! How about the loser treats everyone?” “A bet’s a bet. I bet Su Mo will stay loyal. After all, it’s a three-year relationship; it can’t just end like that...” ... Qin Yi took a deep breath, summoned his courage, and looked up toward the school gate. Su Mo’s figure came into view. She was still radiant, with exquisite makeup and a charming smile. Her white lace dress fluttered gently in the wind, like a blooming white lotus. “Mo...” The words reached his lips, but Qin Yi forced them back down. Only because of the look Su Mo had just given him. When Su Mo saw Qin Yi, the smile on her face instantly froze, replaced by undisguised disdain and disgust. However, her gaze only lingered on Qin Yi’s face for a brief moment before immediately moving past him to look at the street behind him, her eyes filled with a bit of panic, as if she were worried about being seen by someone. A moment later, as if a weight had been lifted, Su Mo shifted her gaze back to Qin Yi and walked quickly toward him, her high heels making a crisp “da-da” sound against the ground. “What are you doing here! Didn’t I tell you everything on WeChat?! Can’t you understand? Do I really have to break up with you in person? Fine! Then I’ll tell you one more time! We’ve broken up! Acting like this now only makes me look down on you even more!” Su Mo’s tone was full of disdain and mockery, as if having Qin Yi as an ex was a very shameful thing. The surrounding crowd began to whisper, and the sound of discussion rose and fell. “See, I told you. How could Su Mo still be interested in this fallen Rich Second Generation?” “Sigh, Qin Yi is just asking for trouble. Knowing what kind of person Su Mo is, he still had to pull this stunt.” “I get it, Qin Yi just can’t let go... I heard that when this department beauty Su was dating Qin Yi, she made him spend quite a bit of money on her... Now that Qin Yi’s family is bankrupt, she wants to break up... That’s really heartless!” “I don’t like hearing that. How can you say it’s heartless? Haven’t you heard the saying, ’Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, but they fly their separate ways when disaster strikes’? If it’s like that for married couples, let alone just a pair of lovers.” “Sigh, yeah. Who would want to be saddled with a mountain of debt right after graduation...” ... Qin Yi’s throat moved as he gripped the bouquet of roses tightly. He knew he was in a wretched state right now, but he still summoned the courage to hand the bouquet to Su Mo. “Momo, do you still remember the promise you made to me when we first started dating?” Hearing this, Su Mo’s expression froze slightly, and a ripple of emotion stirred deep in her heart. “You said that when we graduate, you wanted me to prepare a bouquet of roses for you, and we would wear our bachelor’s gowns together...” However, before Qin Yi could finish, he was interrupted by Su Mo’s impatient wave of her hand. “Qin Yi, stop deceiving yourself! You think doing this will make me change my mind? I’m telling you, it’s impossible! We’ve already broken up. To me, you are nothing now!” “Momo, I didn’t come here today to pester you. I just wanted to fulfill our promise and put a full stop to this relationship.” Qin Yi’s voice was a bit choked. But Su Mo interrupted him impatiently: “Qin Yi, you are truly laughably naive! Do you think doing this can win me back? I’m telling you, it’s over between us! You have nothing now; what do you have to love me with? Just your words?” Qin Yi’s heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sharp blade. He was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly: “Momo, I know I have nothing right now, but I believe I will stand up again. Give me a little time, and I will prove to you that I, Qin Yi, am not someone who only speaks empty words.” Su Mo shook her head coldly: “Qin Yi, stop dreaming! Besides, I’ve already found a new partner; his family background is better than yours, and he’s richer than you. My life now is something you can’t even imagine. So, please don’t show up in front of me again. From now on, we are strangers!” Although Qin Yi had already had a premonition, when these cold and heartless words came out of Su Mo’s mouth, he still felt as if he had been struck by a ruthless heavy hammer. The last faint glimmer of hope in his heart shattered, and it felt as if something had split open in his chest, the pain making it almost impossible for him to breathe. The bouquet of roses that he had been holding tightly now seemed to have lost all its vitality, the petals drooping as if also mourning for this lost relationship. The onlookers also began to chime in with their discussions. “Those words are a bit too much. After all, they were together for three years; there’s no need to be so harsh.” Someone said indignantly. “Yeah, I really didn’t expect that Su Mo, who usually looks so gentle and harmless, would say such hurtful words.” Someone shook their head and sighed. “This is a typical ’Green Tea’; she acts pure and harmless on the surface, but in reality, she’s very calculating.” Someone commented disdainfully. “Sigh, Qin Yi is really pitiful. Being hurt by someone like that, I’m afraid it’ll be hard for him to believe in love again.” Someone sighed sympathetically. “Sigh, sweet words when there’s money, but turning cold and heartless when there’s none.” Someone lamented indignantly. Accused by those around her, Su Mo’s expression gradually became awkward. Her gaze toward Qin Yi, beyond disdain, now held a few more hints of disgust. Just as the atmosphere was about to reach a freezing point, a sharp car horn pierced the silence, drawing everyone’s attention. “Beep, beep, beep—” Everyone turned their heads to see a dazzling yellow sports car speeding over like a shooting star, coming to a steady stop on the street not far away. The sports car had sleek lines and a dazzling luster. The scissor doors slowly rose, and a man wearing sunglasses stepped out with a flourish. “Wow, a sports car! So cool!” “Oh my god, isn’t that the latest Maserati MC20? I heard it costs over three million to get one!” “Holy crap, for real? That expensive?!” “The guy in sunglasses is so handsome, such a strong aura. He’s totally my ideal type!” “He seems to be looking at me... Should I go up and strike up a conversation?” ... The onlookers instantly erupted into a frenzy. Emotions of envy, jealousy, and desire intertwined, forming an indescribable atmosphere. Su Mo’s gaze also shifted away from Qin Yi. When she saw the man in sunglasses walking toward her, her eyes immediately shimmered with a gentle light. Qin Yi watched this, feeling a sharp pang in his heart. Once upon a time, Su Mo used to look at him with such tenderness... Just as the man in sunglasses was about to reach Su Mo, she suddenly lowered her voice and said angrily to Qin Yi, “Qin Yi! Leave quickly. If you don’t care about your Face, I still care about mine!” No sooner had she spoken than the man in sunglasses stood before her. He glanced at Qin Yi, a mocking curve forming at the corner of his mouth. What happened next left the onlookers even more dumbfounded. Disregarding the gazes of Qin Yi and the crowd, the man in sunglasses reached out to wrap his arm around Su Mo’s waist, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her deeply on the lips. “Whoa—” The onlookers couldn’t help but gasp. Qin Yi’s mind went blank, feeling a surge of rage rising from the bottom of his heart. The bouquet of roses in his hand slipped weakly to the ground. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his fists clenched until they cracked. A moment later, the man in sunglasses separated from Su Mo. He reached out to toy with her hair, his Face full of triumph. After all, kissing the department beauty in front of so many people gave any man a lot of Face. Not to mention, it was right in front of Qin Yi, the ex! Men simply loved to “show off” their affection in front of a woman’s ex to satisfy their own vanity. “Mo Mo, who is he!” Qin Yi’s gaze was like a torch, staring fixedly at the man in sunglasses. He gritted his teeth as if to crush the anger in his heart. The man in sunglasses turned leisurely, his hand sliding down Su Mo’s back. He inadvertently increased his grip, pulling Su Mo close to him, then sized Qin Yi up provocatively. Su Mo felt a bit of pain, but she still feigned a look of happiness on her Face. At this moment, as if declaring his sovereignty, the man in sunglasses pulled his shades down slightly, revealing his arrogant and smug Face with a mocking smile. “Wang Hao!” Qin Yi’s eyes widened. He looked at Wang Hao in disbelief, then turned his gaze back to Su Mo, his voice trembling as he asked, “Mo Mo, you... how can you be with him? Don’t you know? He’s just a scumbag who toys with feelings! He changes girlfriends faster than he changes clothes! You’ll suffer if you’re with him!” Su Mo frowned, her Face showing disgust again as she glared at Qin Yi. “Qin Yi! What right do you have to talk about Brother Hao? I’ve already broken up with you! It’s none of your business who I’m with!” Wang Hao let go of Su Mo, walked up to Qin Yi, circled him, and said in a deliberately mocking tone, “Oho, oho... I wondered which devoted lover it was, but it’s actually Young Master Qin. What’s the matter? Has everything at Young Master Qin’s home been settled? Speaking of which, it’s been about half a year since we last met... Why are you still wearing a graduation gown in this heat? Aren’t you hot?” As Wang Hao spoke, he tugged at the graduation gown Qin Yi was wearing with a look of extreme disdain. Qin Yi clenched his fists, veins bulging as he glared at Wang Hao. “My business is none of your concern!” Wang Hao had never gotten along with Qin Yi; they were classmates. Previously, their family backgrounds were similar, but not only was Qin Yi’s family wealthy, his grades in school were also better than Wang Hao’s. Most importantly, Qin Yi was more handsome than him, so Wang Hao had been overshadowed by Qin Yi in every way during their college years. But who could have imagined that as graduation approached, Qin Yi’s family company would go bankrupt due to a broken capital chain. Not only that, according to Su Mo, Qin Yi’s father also owed a large amount of high-interest debt—the kind that ordinary people couldn’t pay off in several lifetimes even without eating or drinking... When he heard this news, Wang Hao couldn’t have been happier. He thought he had to find an opportunity to thoroughly humiliate Qin Yi and vent his hatred! Unfortunately, as soon as trouble hit Qin Yi’s home, he took a leave of absence and went back. Thus, Wang Hao could only set his sights on Su Mo. For a man, what could be more humiliating than having his woman touched by another? Originally, Wang Hao thought Qin Yi and Su Mo’s relationship was very strong, and it might take some effort. But who knew that Su Mo, who appeared pure and innocent like a white lotus on the surface, was actually a total gold-digger at heart. So, after Qin Yi took his leave and left the school, Wang Hao launched an offensive on Su Mo, showering her with various luxury goods and high-end restaurants regardless of the cost. Finally, a month ago, Su Mo was completely conquered by Wang Hao. At the same time, Wang Hao also learned about Qin Yi’s family matters from Su Mo. The posts on the campus forum about the bankruptcy of Qin Yi’s family were also spread by Wang Hao. Now that he had encountered Qin Yi again, Wang Hao naturally wouldn’t let this chance slip by. He had to “kick the dog while it’s down”! At this point, more and more people were gathering. Su Mo didn’t want things to become public knowledge either; after all, it wasn’t good for her reputation. So, Su Mo lowered her voice and said softly to Wang Hao, “Brother Hao, ignore him. It’s so hot outside, let’s go...” How could Wang Hao listen to Su Mo? He glanced at the roses on the ground and let out a disdainful chuckle. “Hehe, what did Young Master Qin just call me? A scumbag?” As Wang Hao spoke, his hand reached out recklessly to touch Su Mo’s Face. He hooked her chin with his finger and once again, provocatively and roughly, kissed her on the lips. It wasn’t until Su Mo felt she couldn’t breathe properly that Wang Hao let go of her, looking at Qin Yi with a provocative gaze. “Young Master Qin is right! Compared to Young Master Qin’s devotion, I, Wang Hao, am a bit of a scumbag. But so what? I have money! I’m happy to spend money on women. Especially ones like Mo Mo!” “You!” Qin Yi stared at Wang Hao in fury, his fists clenched tight, his eyes looking as if they wanted to devour him. In the past, Wang Hao might have been wary of Qin Yi, as their families were of equal strength. But now, Qin Yi’s actions in Wang Hao’s eyes were nothing more than impotent rage. So, Wang Hao continued to provoke him. “What about ’you’? What? Want to hit me? I’m so scared...” Wang Hao took two more steps toward Qin Yi with a sleazy look, fearlessly thrusting his Face in front of Qin Yi’s. “Come on, hit me right here!” Infuriated, Qin Yi was about to strike out and teach this bastard a lesson. But unexpectedly, Wang Hao let out a cold laugh. “Think carefully! If this punch lands, you’ll either pay up or go to jail!” Qin Yi hesitated... If this were half a year ago, he would have thrown that punch without any hesitation! But now, he no longer had the capital to bear the consequences of that punch. If he were arrested, not only would his studies be affected, but it would also place an even greater burden on his parents... His family could no longer afford it... Thinking of this, Qin Yi backed down, his clenched fists slowly loosening. Seeing this, Wang Hao gave a cold smile and spat disdainfully. “Pah! Dammit, you coward! You’ve got no strength, yet you’re so damn good at putting on an act!” After saying that, Wang Hao lifted his foot and, as if trying to crush Qin Yi to death, stomped hard on the bouquet of roses on the ground. Those once delicate flowers were ruthlessly crushed, and Qin Yi’s heart broke along with them. His dignity, his love, his everything—at this moment, they were all trampled underfoot by this bastard Wang Hao... Qin Yi lowered his eyes, disheartened, wanting only to turn around and leave. But Wang Hao had no intention of letting Qin Yi off so easily! The humiliation wasn’t enough! “Stop! Did I say you could leave?!” Qin Yi looked up, his eyes flashing with the light of anger. “Wang Hao! Don’t you fucking go too far!” he roared. Wang Hao showed no fear; instead, he became even more arrogant. “Too far? I’ll show you what ’too far’ means!” He snatched the bag from Su Mo’s shoulder, pulled out a few bills, and threw them in Qin Yi’s Face. “Take this money as compensation for you!” Having said that, Wang Hao was about to turn and leave, but then seemed to remember something. He leaned into Qin Yi’s ear and whispered another mockery. “By the way, there’s one thing I almost forgot to tell you! I took Su Mo’s first time! Qin Yi, should I call you devoted or just stupid? I really didn’t expect that after being with Su Mo for three years, she was still a virgin... Back then, you were rich and handsome, so why didn’t you just take her? Could it be that your equipment doesn’t work? But I should still thank you for that! Don’t worry, after my day-and-night training during this time, she’s very familiar with all kinds of positions now! Oh, by the way, I have plenty of videos and photos on my phone. If you’re interested, I don’t mind letting you have a look! After all, sharing joy is better than keeping it to yourself...” Qin Yi was completely enraged. “Wang Hao! Fuck your ancestors!” He threw a punch toward Wang Hao’s Face. Since Wang Hao had chosen to use this matter to completely provoke Qin Yi, he was naturally prepared. He quickly retreated and grabbed Su Mo, pulling her in front of him. Wang Hao was different from Qin Yi; he wouldn’t cherish Su Mo just because she was his woman now. To him, women were nothing more than playthings! He, Wang Hao, wouldn’t be as stupid as Qin Yi and get hurt for a woman! “Ah...” Su Mo screamed and closed her eyes, terrified. Qin Yi’s punch stalled in mid-air; he hesitated. Taking the opportunity, Wang Hao raised his leg and kicked Qin Yi hard in the abdomen. Qin Yi staggered back in pain, glaring at Wang Hao. “Wang Hao! You bastard! You actually used a woman as a shield!” he roared. “Hahaha, Qin Yi! If I say you’re stupid, you really are! Think carefully! Can you afford the consequences of hitting me? Think about your dad, think about your mom, think about the debts your family owes! You useless trash!” Qin Yi looked at Wang Hao, his eyes nearly bursting. His fists clenched tighter and tighter, but in the end, he let go... Some of the people around shook their heads and sighed, feeling the injustice for Qin Yi; others mocked him, calling him a spineless coward... But only Qin Yi knew that although he had lost, he hadn’t lost to Wang Hao, but to his family ties! Seeing Qin Yi like this, Wang Hao laughed loudly and turned around, his hand recklessly resting on Su Mo’s perky butt, squeezing it at will. “Let’s go! Dammit, I’m happy today! Which bag did you mention last time?” “Oh, you’re so annoying, Brother Hao, so many people are watching...” Su Mo pressed close to Wang Hao, pulling his wandering arm around her waist. Her voice was extremely artificial, as if she had already forgotten how Wang Hao had just used her as a human shield. “Let them look! Let them watch...” Soon, amidst gazes of either envy or disdain, Wang Hao and Su Mo got into the yellow sports car. Then, the engine roared, and the yellow sports car thundered away from Modu University. Seeing that the main parties had left, the onlookers also lost interest. Meanwhile, Qin Yi remained standing there dazed. A clear footprint had been added to his graduation gown. A few hundred-yuan bills were scattered on the ground, drifting in the breeze along with the crushed rose petals.

Book 2 – Chapter 31: The Boys Have a Problem The college dance was only three days away. Which meant… Panic. ⸻ Not from Jennie. From the boys. ⸻ Felix sat in the dorm lounge, scrolling through his phone. His blonde hair was neatly styled, and he wore a black hoodie, dark jeans, and white sneakers. He sighed. ⸻ Han walked in carrying three different jackets. His black hair faded into bright blue at the ends. He wore a blue hoodie, black cargo pants, and sneakers. ⸻ “Which one says, ‘I’m cool but not trying too hard?’” ⸻ Felix looked up. ⸻ “None of them.” ⸻ Han gasped dramatically. “You’re supposed to support me!” ⸻ Before Felix could answer, Hyunjin walked in. His black hair with bright red tips was styled perfectly. He wore a black jacket, fitted jeans, and boots. ⸻ “You’ve been standing in front of the mirror for twenty minutes.” ⸻ Han crossed his arms. “I’m creating a masterpiece.” ⸻ “You’re creating traffic.” ⸻ Felix laughed. ⸻ Just then… The girls walked past the open lounge. ⸻ Jennie wore an oversized black leather jacket, a band T-shirt, baggy jeans, and chunky boots.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore a black designer-style jacket with layered necklaces. “The energy…” Han interrupted. “Can you stop narrating life for five minutes?” ⸻ An announcer stepped onto the stage. “Ladies and gentlemen…” “Welcome to the Battle of the DJs!” The crowd erupted. Music blasted through the speakers. Lights swept across the room. ⸻ Contestants took turns performing. Each one had ten minutes. Each one received huge cheers. Jennie watched quietly. Felix stood beside her. “You ready?” She nodded once. “As ready as I’ll ever be.” ⸻ “And now…” “Our final contestant…” “JENNIE!” The entire club cheered. ⸻ Jennie walked onto the stage. The lights dimmed. She placed her headphones on. Closed her eyes. Pressed play. ⸻ The first beat hit. The crowd exploded. Jennie mixed songs effortlessly, building the energy with every transition. The dance floor filled in seconds. Even the judges leaned forward. ⸻ Backstage… Han’s mouth dropped open. “Okay…” “I knew she was good.” “I didn’t know she was THAT good.” Lisa smiled proudly. “Told you.” ⸻ Felix couldn’t stop smiling. He folded his arms. “She’s incredible.” Rosé looked at him. “You’ve got the biggest smile in the room.” Felix immediately looked away. “I do not.” “You absolutely do.” ⸻ Jennie’s final transition hit. The lights flashed. The crowd clapped in rhythm. By the end of her set… The entire club was cheering her name. “JENNIE!” “JENNIE!” “JENNIE!” ⸻ She walked backstage, trying to stay cool. “So…” Han ran over. “So?!” “You nearly blew the roof off this place!” Jennie laughed. “Relax.” “I will not relax!” ⸻ Felix walked up. “You were amazing.” Jennie smiled. “You’ve said that before.” “I’ll probably say it again.” She nudged his shoulder. “Careful.” “Why?” “You keep giving me compliments.” He grinned. “I’m just telling the truth.” ⸻ The announcer returned to the stage. “The judges have made their decision.” The room became silent. “In third place…” Cheers echoed. “In second place…” More applause. Jennie squeezed her hands together. Felix noticed. Without saying anything… He gently gave her hand a reassuring squeeze. She looked at him. He simply smiled. ⸻ “And this year’s Battle of the DJs champion is…” A dramatic pause. “…JENNIE!” The entire club erupted. Han jumped so high he nearly knocked over a chair. Lisa screamed. Rosé hugged Jisoo. Hyunjin dramatically fell to one knee. “I KNEW IT!” ⸻ Jennie stood frozen. “Me?” The announcer laughed. “Yes, you.” Felix gently nudged her. “Go.” “You won.” ⸻ Jennie walked onto the stage. The trophy was placed in her hands. She looked out at the cheering crowd. Then down at her friends. Then at Felix. He gave her a thumbs-up. She smiled. A real one. The biggest smile anyone had seen from her. ⸻ Han yelled from the front row, “Speech!” Jennie picked up the microphone. “I only have one thing to say…” The crowd waited. She looked directly at Han. “…You’re still annoying.” The whole club burst into laughter. Han placed a hand over his heart. “I’ve never been so honored.” Felix laughed harder than anyone else. And somehow… Winning the competition felt amazing. But celebrating it with the people who had become her family… Made it even better.
Chapter 37 – The Countdown to Graduation The announcement appeared on every hallway screen. “Graduation Ceremony: Two Weeks Away.” ⸻ The entire school changed overnight. Suddenly… Everyone was talking about memories. Photos. Last performances. Future plans. ⸻ Jennie stood in the hallway staring at the announcement. Her blonde hair was styled in loose waves, and she wore a black oversized jacket, a white top, baggy jeans, and her favorite boots. For once… She wasn’t making a joke. ⸻ Felix noticed. His black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his varsity jacket, black shirt, athletic pants, and sneakers. “You okay?” Jennie looked at him. “Yeah.” A pause. “Just weird.” “What?” “Everything.” ⸻ Felix looked at the graduation poster. “I know.” “It feels like yesterday we couldn’t stand each other.” Jennie smirked. “You couldn’t stand me.” Felix laughed. “You roasted me every five seconds.” “You deserved it.” ⸻ Han suddenly appeared. His messy brown hair was covered by a graduation cap he wasn’t supposed to be wearing yet. “I heard emotional conversations.” Everyone groaned. ⸻ Lisa walked over laughing. Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was tied back, and she wore a casual black jacket with cargo pants. “Why are you wearing that?” Han looked proud. “I’m preparing.” “For what?” “My future as the best graduate.” “We haven’t graduated yet.” “Details.” ⸻ Rosé smiled. Her lavender hair fell over her shoulders, and she wore a soft sweater and jeans. “He’s been practicing his graduation speech.” Jisoo looked concerned. Her red hair was tied neatly, and she wore a cream sweater with black pants. “How long is it?” Han looked away. “…Forty minutes.” Everyone: “No.” ⸻ Hyunjin arrived dramatically. His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore a black sweater with layered necklaces. “Graduation is the end of one era…” Everyone stared. “And the beginning of another.” Han nodded. “Exactly.” Jennie whispered to Felix: “They are both dramatic.” Felix whispered back: “Extremely.” ⸻ Later that day… The group practiced for the ceremony. ⸻ Jennie was helping organize the music. Felix was helping with the sports awards. Han was somehow distracting everyone. ⸻ “Han.” “What?” “Why are you spinning in the graduation chair?” “Testing durability.” “Why?” “In case I become too successful.” ⸻ Jennie shook her head. “You are impossible.” Han smiled. “Thank you.” ⸻ After practice… Jennie and Felix stayed behind. The empty auditorium was quiet. Rows of chairs filled the room. The stage lights were on. ⸻ Felix looked around. “Can’t believe we’re almost done.” Jennie nodded. “Yeah.” ⸻ He smiled. “You know…” “What?” “If we met on the first day again…” “I would still roast you.” “I know.” “And you would still annoy me.” “I know.” ⸻ A small smile appeared on Jennie’s face. “But…” Felix looked at her. “But?” She looked away. “…I’m glad we met.” ⸻ Felix smiled. “Me too.” ⸻ A moment passed. Then… Jennie pointed at his outfit. “Your graduation suit better not look weird.” Felix blinked. “That was the moment you chose to roast me?” “Of course.” He laughed. “Never change.” ⸻ The auditorium lights turned off. They walked out together. Graduation was coming. A new chapter was beginning. But one thing was guaranteed… Even with diplomas… New futures… And everything changing… Jennie and Felix would still find a way to annoy each other.
