XXXII: Return [Part 2]
Ms. Opposite and Mr.WrongThe bell rang, signaling the break time. Ji Eun immediately stood up from her seat and stormed off the room. Hyojin raised an inquisitive brow at you. “I better check on her.” You stood up to follow Ji Eun. Your knees slightly wobbled brought by the earlier shock but someone grasped you by the waist to regain your balance.
“Orenmani-eh-yo.” A long lost yet familiar voice rang in your ears.
Myungsoo loosened his hold and smiled unsurely at you. You did not bother to reply. An indifferent look was all that you could manage to give him. You had so much things running in your head but none of that wanted to come out of your mouth.

“Well, Tao and I happened to pass by and we saw you both. When we came you already passed out. Did you drink because of-“ Before Kris could continue his question, he was cut off by Tao.
“~~~! Is Ji Eun alright? Could you put her on the line please?” Tao’s voice was unusually filled with worry and anxiousness. It was so rare that you were actually perplexed by it.
