"Luhan oppa! Did you by any chance see Lay oppa? I have something to give to him", Yoonji, as girl from class asked. She had always been close to the boy from the other school. Meaning, she had always been close to Kris, Tao, Suho, Chen, Luhan and Lay since they've been in the same class for years now. Luhan turned around and found Yoonji sitting in Lay's seat behind him. Luhan gave it a thought for a second, if Lay wasn't there by the time school ended... he assumed it would probably mean he's already on the way to Soomi's school. Luhan turned around once more, "I think he left already. What is it do you want to give to him? I'll pass it for you", he said kindly but Yoonji pulled the gift away before Luhan had a chance to take it.

"Ani! I want to give this by myself", she said blushing and she smiled. She told Luhan that it was alright, she'll catch him another day and immediately went off to pack her things since school ended. Yoonji exited the school and immediately went into a black car, she belonged to a rich family that runs an oil and gas private company. As she got home, she entered her house and was immediately frightened by the person waiting for her. It was someone she was very familiar and comfortable with. In fact it was her best friend. The person in front of her immediately turned and a smiled appeared on the person's face. "Annyeong chinggu. I've missed you", the person said happily. Yoonji looked at the person shocked, her best friend is back? What does this mean? She though to herself.

"Jisoo?", Yoonji asked looking a little scared and worried. Her friend smiled brightly, "Yah, is that how you greet me? Come here and give me a hug!", she said opening her arms and with that Yoonji faked a smile and hugged her. When her face was unseen, her expression changed once more. "How are you back? I thought you are studying overseas to be mentored under a doctor there?", she asked whilst they were still cherishing the moment as they hugged each other. Jisoo chucked, "It's unfortunate but my parents started their own hospital here and I will be trained personally by their highest sitting doctor. What's better than being back and getting exactly what I want right?", she asked breaking the hug as she finished replying. Yoonji smiled, "What does that mean that?", she asked; a little unsure still of what is happening. Jisoo laughed, "My loved best friend, I am staying for good", she said which caused lightning to strike in Yoonji's head. Yoonji smiled, "Really? That's great!", she said as she watched Jisoo sit on the couch. She felt something bad was going to happen; like a bad instinct hitting her but it was mostly for herself.

"So... how's Lay oppa? Has he been doing well?", Jisoo asked.

"Lay!", Tao the panda shouted across the corridor drawing a lot of attention to them. Lay looked up from texting Soomi in the morning as he was typing her a reply; a little shocked that his name was being called so loud early in the morning. "Your hard sad lonely days are over hyung!", the panda said happily as he swung his arm around Lay's shoulders. Lay was a little confused, why was Tao saying that. He was indeed already happy because he found Soomi, what else could make him happy? As he entered class, he noticed everyone was gathering at his table. Whispers and chatters were so loud but nothing could be heard until everyone realised Lay was in the class and opened the path for him to his seat but Lay's footsteps stopped the moment he saw the person in his seat.

"Jisoo...", he uttered softly to himself seeing the girl in front of him. Jisoo smiled brightly, "Annyeong oppa. It's been a long time", she said standing up. Standing before Lay with the smile that left him so much memories in his head. In his hand, was his phone hanging. A text immediately forgotten to get back to. Soomi sat in class and wondered, 'Where did he go? School's about to start..." She frowned to herself and kept her phone away the moment she heard the bell ringing. Soomi went about her whole day as usual in school. She was a little excited because Lay and her would usually run off together after school to spend time and it has been almost 2 weeks of it. Almost like a new routine for them.

When the bell rang signaling school had ended, Soomi packed her things and immediately ran off as usual. "Look at her, always rushing off now. She must really like this guy she met. Have any of you seen this guy before?", Baekhyun asked looking around but all the boys shook their heads except for Sehun. Sehun took Soomi's keys out of his bag pack and looked at it. He couldn't help but wonder who could his best friend be seeing. He's never seen her like this before. Reaching the school gate, Soomi smiled and stepped out of the school compound only to be disappointed to see that Lay was no where to be found. She took her phone out of her pocket and there was no messages nor even a single call from him. She wondered with the most uncomfortable feeling in her. Soomi decided to make her way home on her own. As she got onto the bus, it disappointed her even more. Where has Lay gone to? She somehow didn't feel like going anywhere at all after seeing that Lay's seat was empty; she just wanted to be home. Did she expected too much from Lay?

"So how have you been while I am away?", Jisoo asked walking beside Lay who was awfully quiet ever since he saw her in the morning. Lay hesitated to reply, he wanted to tell her how much of a wreck he was because of her but he couldn't say a word. He felt that it was too complicated. Jisoo had asked Lay if they could catch up after school which he couldn't say no to because he was practically forced into it by his friends and Jisoo herself. Jisoo lead them to their usual ice-cream store. She got herself a cup of ice-cream and joined Lay at the table; he wasn't in the mood to consume anything. "Why are you back?", Lay asked immediately as she sat down.

Jisoo smiled. "Remember that I went overseas to finish my high school there with a doctor mentoring me? My parents finally managed to pull off their own hospital hiring the best doctor in the states. He's mentoring me and securing me a guaranteed job as a doctor in the future here instead. So I am back for good Lay. Is
