CHAPTER 9    

Meeting KyungJoo    

January 24, 2014

Seyoung woke up that morning because of the continuous knocks on the door. She groaned a little before heading to the door and opening it.

“Yah, why aren’t you answering? And why did you wake up just now?”

“mmm, is there a problem?” She asked, while rubbing her eyes

“Did you forget that you’ll go to school today?”

With that, Seyoung’s eyes widen.

“Omo, I forgot! What time is it?”

“You have thirty minutes to prepare, now move fast”

Seyoung ran inside the room to get a towel and went quickly to shower. When she’s already in her uniform, she get her phone before heading downstairs.

“My phone ran out of battery, that’s why it didn’t alarm” she explained to Minhyuk

“ah, why didn’t you charge it?”

“I left it at home” She said and began to eat her breakfast

“Here” Minhyuk said and put a phone near her “Use this for a while”

“Is it okay?”

“I have two phones so it’s fine. My number is saved there. Message me when you need something or if there’s any problem”

“uhm, Thank you”

After they eat, Seyoung went to Seoul High School while Minhyuk went to somewhere for his job. She was already at the gate and many students were already entering, She just stared at the school. Somehow, it felt weird. It was also her school, but to think that she won’t meet any of her friends inside makes it feel weird.

“Hey, student! What are you doing there? Come inside!” The teacher who was monitoring at the gates said

“ah, neh” She said and entered the school.

But because she was not really a student there, that time, she doesn’t know where to go. So she just walk and walk. She needs to find Sehun and Hayoung immediately. The bell will ring any minute now, and she knows that the school is strict about students ditching class. So she needs to find a hiding place while they were in class. She can’t just enter a random classroom. While thinking, she doesn’t realize that there is a guy near her and she bumped into him.

“ah! I’m sorry!” She bowed.

 “It’s okay”

When she look up she was shocked to see that it was Sehun

“Appa!..I..I mean op—oppa, Sehun oppa, mianhae” She said and walks away

“hey why am I walking away? It is my chance!” She look back to Sehun and saw that he was looking at her too. But the way he stares made her afraid. So she just look away and head somewhere

“Appa is really scary.” She mumbled

Since Seyoung doesn't know anyone there, and the bell already rang, she went to the garden near the back of building A to hide.  She sat on the bench and get the two photos. She stared at them and think. 

"How can I meet all these people? Ugh, this sure is hard" she mumbled. 

"Why can't I remember even just one of them?" She said and sighed. 

Of all the nineteen people in the photo, aside from Hayoung and Sehun, she doesn't know anyone. She knows that she already met them. But heck, the last time she saw all of them is on her 2nd birthday party. And now she regrets why she doesn't watch the video clips before.

"Okay, I think uncle Kyungsoo is the big eyed one? That's what appa always say.huh?" She stand up when she heard that someone's coming.

She stand up and tried to hide. She knows that it can be those patrolling teachers. She can't be caught ditching class because even if she's not a student there, more trouble will come if they'd know that she's not a registered student.

"wait, where should I hide?" she said and look around, then she saw a small space between the building and the school's wall, so she hide there.

Carefully, not to make any noise, because the place where full of planks of woods and steel bars. She heard that the person is coming near, she carefully peek to see who it is. She was shocked to see not a teacher but a female student.

The student looked around before heading to the wall, there was a garbage bin there and she used it to climb up.

"Omo, she's ditching school" Seyoung whispered to herself.

"Namjoo!" A guy shouted that made the girl stop from crossing the wall.

"uGh!" Namjoo said in annoyance "What do you want now Kyungsoo?"
"Why are you ditching class again?"
"You don't care, just get back there will you?"

Seyoung narrowed her eyes on the two students. She can't hear what they were saying but she's sure that they were fighting. She's looking at them when she realized something, she quickly took the photos and see if what she think is right.

 Her guess was right. The two students were in the photos. Which means that they were part of Apink and EXO! Seyoung look again at the two and it looks that they were still fighting. She moved a little so she can hear what they were talking about but she unconsciously hit a steel bar. Causing for it to make a sound with the other steel bars.
