Astrological fortune-telling.
A fortune-telling activity held by our Astronomy Club.
You two will be our fortune tellers on Club Fair Day.
-For our Astronomy Club, keep fighting. -Where are you going?
-Fighting. -"Borrowing power from the stars
to foretell someone's fortune
requires you to sell the power of your own soul."
Let's say I like someone.
How likely is it that the person will reciprocate my feelings?
Very likely.
That person must like you very much.
A universe that needs no prophecy from the stars.
A universe where you already know how you feel.
Are these for me?
Sun.
I...
I don't know.
The delivery guy left them with me.
Yeah?
Thank you.
Sure. You're welcome.
In the end, I chickened out.
I need to get back to the club.
I haven't grabbed my stuff yet.
Bye.
Did you send me flowers?
How did you do it?
Yes, I did.
Do you like them?
Well...
I do.
That's great.
That you like them.
That makes me happy.
It's true that the Sun should be with the Earth,
not with you, Ongsa.
Alien, please let us join your club.
We love your club so much.
It's true. Please recruit us, Alien.
Talk to the club leader.
Come on. Can't you talk to her for us?
Please.
Speak with us.
Say something.
Please.
I might have made history by defeating Ton's club.
Luna? What are those girls doing at your club?
Please accept us, Alien.
Alien, will you talk to her for us?
Please.
Where are you going?
Guys, stop it right now.
Why are you cornering her like that?
If you want to switch clubs, wait until next semester.
Apply again next semester, guys.
Aylin, are you okay?
Alien has no reason to talk to humans.
Aylin.
Aylin, wait.
Sun, you've known Aylin since junior high, right?
Yes.
I've known her since Grade 7,
but we weren't close then.
Has she always been like this?
What do you mean, Alpha?
Well, she has no friends,
she doesn't talk to people,
she doesn't care about anyone,
and
she's been nicknamed "Alien."
Aylin is different from other people.
She's quiet.
She doesn't talk much to people.
She's interested in space, UFOs, and alien stuff.
Her classmates thought she was strange
and started calling her Alien.
After that, she distanced herself from people even more.
Hearing that makes me feel guilty.
I knew she was obsessed with aliens,
I just didn't know that it had caused social problems like that for her.
Aylin is my cousin, but I can't help her with anything.
Come on now.
At least you know her problem now.
Let's find a way to help her.
We don't know what Aylin's been through like you do,
but we really want to help her.
From now on, if you see her struggling with any kind of problem,
can you let us know?
Of course.
Aylin is my friend too.
I'll let you know if I notice anything.
Thank you so much, Sun.
Why are you smiling? Can I see?
It's nothing.
Every time you say that, it's something.
It really is nothing.
Keep on working.
Hey. Your birthday is coming up.
What will you do this year?
Planning to meet up with someone?
Meet up?
I'm not.
We thought you'd be going on a date with Mr. Earth or something.
What date?
There's no meeting.
No date.
No nothing.
Earth and I are just friends.
Girl, this is not what friends do.
Friends don't make you smile like that.
So, have you ever seen his face?
I haven't.
I think it's weird.
-He could be a crim. -A criminal?
What?
No way.
I've just never asked for his photo.
I don't want him to feel uncomfortable.
But you might want to.
You've been talking for a while now.
Don't you want to see each other's faces?
Earth has never made me feel uneasy
and I don't want him to feel uneasy either.
If he wants to show his face, he eventually will.
How about this?
I have a way to find out if this guy Earth is serious with you.
A way?
What way?
Your birthday. Invite him to come.
It describes how often something happens in the simple present tense.
Give me some examples.
There are more. What adverbs do we use if something doesn't happen very often?
It's my birthday in a few days.
If I ask you a favor, will you grant it?
What is it?
Can we meet up?
Sit back down.
"Never" in the present simple tense
means "not ever," as in a habit that is always negative.
But "never" in the present perfect tense
implies "not ever," as in, "You haven't done it."
I want to go.
But no promises.
I know you live far away.
But if you can, I'd love you to come.
If someone says, "I have never loved you," what do they mean, Tinh?
They mean they don't love you, not because they never had the chance to,
but because they never did in the first place.
Ouch.
That hurts.
Correct.
You can tell by the adverb of frequency that's used in the sentence.
It indicates how often something happens.
Guys, are you free this Saturday?
We are.
Why do you ask, Sun?
I'm throwing a birthday party this Saturday.
That's why.
Do you have time?
-We do. -We do.
What about you, Ongsa? Are you free?
I am. I'll be there.
Great. Please tell Aylin she's invited as well.
Thanks a lot for inviting us.
I'll be going now.
-Bye. -See you.
Come on.
Aylin.
What, human?
Sun has invited us to her birthday party this Saturday.
You're invited too, Alien.
Right. She asked us to ask you.
I never thought someone like Sun would invite people like us.
I thought she would only invite you, Ongsa.
Why are you looking at me like that?
We saw it.
You gave Sun the flowers.
Me?
No way.
Don't lie.
We saw with our own eyes that you visited the Floral Design Club,
got the bouquet, and gave it to Sun.
You're wrong.
You saw it wrong.
I didn't. You want proof?
Wanna see it?
Fine.
I gave Sun the flowers.
But...
Sun doesn't know they're from me.
What?
Well...
Here's the story.
What? Sun thinks you're a guy?
I didn't think it was a big deal at first.
I didn't know it would escalate.
I think you'd better tell her soon that you're Earth.
I'm scared.
I'm afraid that if she learns the truth,
I will...
