The New Name

In the evening, both of them opened their windows at different times but for the same reason, they wanted to talk to each other. Both of them sat in the study table and started doing their homeworks and other assignments. "Hey Hoon-ah can you explain the fifth sum of the home assignment sir gave us today ? I can't understand" she said. Pass your notebook, let me look at it once" he said. She passed the notebook through the window. They both came near the window and he started explaining it to her. "Oh so it was like this and I'm trying it from the past ten minutes, seriously" she said and pout. "You're cute" he said and chuckled at her behaviour. "Yah yah I know" she said and went back to her seat. They were peacefully doing their work when Hoon said, "Lia, about earlier I thought that, it is s sad that you lost contact with your other friends, but can't we make our friendship a long one ?", " I don't know we transfer a lot" she said casually."Umm okay but promise me that even if you shift somewhere far, you will not forget me, and we would also keep contact, what do you say. Oh ! and give me your number before I forget" he said taking out his phone."Okiee!" she said and smiled widely. "Now I'm saying the number","hmm say","So it's 7124-...","okay saved". "Umm Lia since we will will have a long friendship let's give it a name", " Sounds good" she said. They started suggesting names, this and that. "Hey Hoon-ah I have an idea, since we became friends wile talking through the window, let's call it The Window Buddies, it's cool right, what do say ?", " Wah that's really cool, okay then, I'll save your number as Window Buddie Lia", " Then I'll save it as Window Buddie Hoon". "So now we are Window Buddies" they said in unison and smiled widely.

3 months later...

In these three months their friendship grew really strong. Lia was happy that she could find such an incredible friend like Junghoon, who always made her smile and never left her side. The feeling of not having a friend is no more in her. As for Junghoon, he really treasures Lia and loves to spend time with her. Both were happy with each other's company and had become inseperable friends. Their friendship had become quite popular in school by now. Almost everyone in school knew that not a single day could pass without them fighting on silly matters like cats and dogs and it became quite entertaining for others to watch it, but still they were the best of friends. Junghoon had introduced her to his gang of friends Taeyeon, and Yeojun, also she had made new friends like Jieun, Soo-ah, Soojin and Areum. It had been a routine for their team fights and Junghoon would voluntarily surrender because he never had an urge to win against Lia.

The last semester was coming to an end, and now both Lia and Junghoon were a part of their school's girls and boys basketball teams which had upcoming tournaments very soon. Lia and the girls would be competing with the girls of other teams of other schools, and same with Junghoon. They were practising hard learning strategies and seeing the matches of other teams of previous years. They were quite nervous for this was a tournament with heavy teams. They supported each other in this time. As the tournament was coming closer the tension was increasing, not only for the team members but also for the whole school, who were looking forward to it eagerly.
