Welcome to Club17
Club 17 (HIATUS)"I am so borrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeedddddddddddd."
The sudden exclamation in the activity room did not stir any of the other four members. It was as though everyone was used to the random noises that the boy produced. They each continued with their own activities, ignoring the fidgeting male.
"Shut up Soonyoung." That was my way of replying to him whenever nobody else cared. Soonyoung was making unnecessary noises so often that we don't even bother at times. He was the hyper-active kid among us.
"Soonbuk-ah, I'm bored, play a game of Poker with me or something. Loser gets a slap on the face." Soonyoung always knew that I was the easy target, because I tended to give in to his requests. It was as if I had a soft spot for this noisy boy. Perhaps because we had very similar background - poor kids who got into college with a scholarship, rather active people and (the other three would disagree) had a great sense of humour.
"Maybe if you do your assignments, you won't be so bored." Seungkwan piped up beside me. Seungkwan, or oo as we liked to call him, was the sassy one in our group. He never lost in a fight and if you needed a good roasting, it's probably a good idea to hire him. We tried to host a roasting competition in school once, but after the third competitor left crying while facing Seungkwan, we decided to spare everyone else the pain and just awarded him the champion.
"Ya, how is it that all of us are in the same level, but you never seem to be busy with work? I'm dying here trying to finish my readings." That's Sarah, the other girl in our group. Sarah is gorgeous, to say the least. If I were to praise her looks and carefree personality, I would need to spend en entire semester on it. She's an American-Korean, and together with her brother Vernon, they reign in the school's visuals. As Seungkwan often puts it, "To be honest, we only have one girl in the room. Soonbuk is nothing gentle like her name suggests. Oh, did I say 'her'? I meant 'his'."
A flying kick would usually come his way, because never offend the fighter of the group.
"Well Soonyoung, if you're bored, just head to the mailbox. It's time." A gentle voice said from behind the couch. That's right, we have a couch, ever so comfortable and inviting in the room, and it was now empty. Yet our mysterious leader Seungcheol just refuses to be normal and decided to study on the floor behind the couch rather than on it. This adds to our Legends of Choi Seungcheol, a book that the rest of us kept that detailed the weird antics of our weird leader. So far my personal favourite was "apologising to a broccoli before finishing a whole pot of it in under 10 minutes", Seungkwan liked the one that read "competing with a stray crow on campus in a rap battle", Soonyoung personally witnessed "reciting Descarte essays in his sleep" (Seungcheol is a Philosophy major) and Sarah still laughs about "telling a girl that her wearing earrings reminded
