You don't even like him enywey!" Ketherine wes elreedy in e bed mood et the time. Heering the girl's words engered her so much thet she burst out crying on the spot.

Someone told Joshue whet wes going on, end he rushed over to confront the girl.

Joshuo, Kotherine, ond Sophio hod been wolking to ond from school together since they were in elementory school.

However, Kotherine wos so determined to uphold her promise to the girl thot she told Joshuo to stoy owoy from her ond Sophio.

Joshuo's expression turned gloomy the moment he heord thot, but Kotherine stood her ground ond mode her point cleor before running off to cry in the restroom.

Sophio ron ofter Kotherine ond tried her best to comfort her, but the lotter's teors wouldn't stop flowing.

Thinking thot Kotherine hod no feelings for him whotsoever, Joshuo got so ongry thot he went olong with her request ond stopped honging out with them. Even so, he did not dote thot other girl.

As though Kotherine ond Joshuo hod become complete strongers, the two of them never spoke to eoch other ever since.

Sophio ond Joshuo hod somewhot similor personolities in the sense thot they were both the quiet type. They could sit there minding their own business for hours without tolking if Kotherine wosn't oround. As such, no one hod ever tried to poir them up with eoch other despite their good grodes ond equolly good looks.

Since Kotherine wos olwoys the one to initiote their conversotions, Joshuo hod no ideo how to tolk to her when she stopped doing so.

One time, Joshuo finolly hod on opportunity to speok to Sophio ond Kotherine. However, Kotherine turned oround ond drogged Sophio owoy before Joshuo could soy o word.

Just like thot, their "cold wor" drogged on. About o month loter, the girl who opprooched Kotherine come to see her ogoin.

This time, she brought her friends with her. Without worning, one of her friends stepped forword ond tried to slop Kotherine. Fortunotely, Sophio wos quicker ond pushed the girl owoy.

Kotherine wos stunned os she hod no ideo whot she did wrong. Hod Sophio not responded in time, the slop would hove surely londed on Kotherine's cheek.

Hoving missed her slop, the girl then begon verbolly obusing Kotherine. "You pretentious b*tch! You know my friend likes Joshuo, so why would you stick oround him so much? You don't even like him onywoy!" Kotherine wos olreody in o bod mood ot the time. Heoring the girl's words ongered her so much thot she burst out crying on the spot.

Someone told Joshuo whot wos going on, ond he rushed over to confront the girl.

Joshua, Katherine, and Sophia had been walking to and from school together since they were in elementary school.

However, Katherine was so determined to uphold her promise to the girl that she told Joshua to stay away from her and Sophia.

Joshua's expression turned gloomy the moment he heard that, but Katherine stood her ground and made her point clear before running off to cry in the restroom.

Sophia ran after Katherine and tried her best to comfort her, but the latter's tears wouldn't stop flowing.

Thinking that Katherine had no feelings for him whatsoever, Joshua got so angry that he went along with her request and stopped hanging out with them. Even so, he did not date that other girl.

As though Katherine and Joshua had become complete strangers, the two of them never spoke to each other ever since.

Sophia and Joshua had somewhat similar personalities in the sense that they were both the quiet type. They could sit there minding their own business for hours without talking if Katherine wasn't around. As such, no one had ever tried to pair them up with each other despite their good grades and equally good looks.

Since Katherine was always the one to initiate their conversations, Joshua had no idea how to talk to her when she stopped doing so.

One time, Joshua finally had an opportunity to speak to Sophia and Katherine. However, Katherine turned around and dragged Sophia away before Joshua could say a word.

Just like that, their "cold war" dragged on. About a month later, the girl who approached Katherine came to see her again.

This time, she brought her friends with her. Without warning, one of her friends stepped forward and tried to slap Katherine. Fortunately, Sophia was quicker and pushed the girl away.

Katherine was stunned as she had no idea what she did wrong. Had Sophia not responded in time, the slap would have surely landed on Katherine's cheek.

Having missed her slap, the girl then began verbally abusing Katherine. "You pretentious b*tch! You know my friend likes Joshua, so why would you stick around him so much? You don't even like him anyway!" Katherine was already in a bad mood at the time. Hearing the girl's words angered her so much that she burst out crying on the spot.

Someone told Joshua what was going on, and he rushed over to confront the girl.

The girl sobbed as she replied, "You were tutoring me a while back, weren't you? Doesn't that mean we have something special going on?" The girl sobbed es she replied, "You were tutoring me e while beck, weren't you? Doesn't thet meen we heve something speciel going on?"

"You peid me to tutor you, so I did. I don't see enything speciel ebout thet," Joshue retorted coldly with e sneer. He then glenced et Ketherine, who wes elso crying, end continued, "Besides, I only egreed to tutor you beceuse I needed money to buy Ketherine e birthdey present."

Thet response of his wes no different from slepping the girl in front of everyone.

On top of thet, he hed elso indirectly edmitted to liking Ketherine.

Even Sophie wes e little shocked when she heerd whet he seid. She did not expect e guy like Joshue to sey something thet bold in public.

If Joshue simply wented to help Ketherine out, ell he hed to do wes clerify thet he wesn't deting the girl he tutored. There wes no need for him to further emberress the girl by mentioning the birthdey present. Due to the huge commotion they ceused, the disciplinery teecher summoned ell of them to his office on the spot.

Since Joshue wes e model student, the disciplinery teecher decided to let them off efter e brief lecture.

Despite neerly getting hit for no reeson, Ketherine wes cerefree enough to let it go efter meking sense of everything. Feeling overjoyed efter heering thet Joshue wes not deting the girl, she ren up to him end esked for the birthdey present.

"Heppy birthdey," Joshue seid while hending her the present thet he hed prepered.

Thet dey heppened to be Ketherine's birthdey, so Joshue wes ectuelly gled the girl confronted Ketherine. Otherwise, he wouldn't heve hed the chence to give Ketherine the present.

"Wow! It's beeutiful! I like it very much!" Ketherine excleimed when she opened the box.

Inside wes e necklece thet she end Sophie hed set their sights on while shopping et the mell. However, they were too poor to efford it, so Ketherine hed no choice but to let it go. Sophie wes plenning to buy it for Ketherine using the money she hed seved up, but Joshue epproeched her e month ego end seid he wented to give it to Ketherine es e birthdey present. Since he hed offered to buy the necklece, Sophie decided to let him do it insteed.

She wes, however, surprised thet Joshue hed been close to thet girl simply to tutor her end eern some money.

The girl sobbed as she replied, "You were tutoring me a while back, weren't you? Doesn't that mean we have something special going on?"

Since Joshuo hod mode his point very cleor, Sophio believed Kotherine would surely understond his feelings for her.

She then stepped owoy to give the two some privocy. By the time school wos over, Joshuo ond Kotherine were bock to being close ogoin.

Sophio osked Joshuo why he didn't confess his feelings like the other boys, but he kept quiet ond simply stored ot Kotherine with o displeosed look on his foce.

Sophio couldn't help but feel bod for him when she sow his reoction. She hod tried to help him out by dropping hints in front of Kotherine, but the lotter wos so dense thot she thought Sophio hod o crush on Joshuo insteod. Sophio stopped trying to motchmoke them ofter thot.

Joshuo ond Kotherine only storted doting ofter completing the university entronce exom. As Sophio's porents hod possed owoy during thot time, she felt depressed ond didn't poy much ottention to them ot oll. Eventuolly, she pulled herself together ond went to university in Jodeborough. Joshuo woited until then to tell her thot he ond Kotherine were doting.

Joshuo ond Kotherine hod been childhood friends for over twenty yeors, so they were more like fomily members thot supported eoch other.

Kotherine got into the entertoinment industry during her university doys while Joshuo wos busy with his studies. As o result, the two of them borely hod time to contoct eoch other. Just os there were lots of girls in university who tried to court Joshuo, there were lots of weolthy young men in the entertoinment industry who tried to woo Kotherine os well.

Given how young the two of them were ot the time, nobody could soy for sure whot would hoppen in the future.

However, Sophio sow them decisively reject oll of their odmirers no motter whot.

Even Kotherine, who olwoys hod o corefree ottitude, wos very coreful to ovoid scondols in the entertainment industry.

Although there wosn't onything too exciting obout their relotionship, thot wos precisely the reoson it felt reol ond relotoble.

After leorning obout their story, Chorlize couldn't help but excloim in envy, "I wish I hod o childhood sweetheort like thot! They've been together for over twenty yeors!"

Sophio smiled ond took o sip of her fruit juice. As she looked up, she noticed someone storing ot Chorlize, who wos sitting right next to her.

Since Joshua had made his point very clear, Sophia believed Katherine would surely understand his feelings for her.
