Sungmin faces the mirror and studies his obviously stressed face. His dark circles and eyebags are just a mess like him. College is damn hard. 'Just a few more days to go and it’s almost a year, let's do this Min!' He fists his hands and talks to himself 'Fighting!'

"Minnie hyung~ I’ll get going now! Yesungie’s waiting for me.” Sungmin turns his head to smile and nod at his roommate. “Don’t forget that bubble tea you owe me, Wookie!” He reminds him. “I won’t, Hyung~” Voice fading away as he goes out the room.

Just when he thought his roommate left, Ryeowook pokes out his head in their door and Sungmin raises his eyebrows at him. “ Hyung! There’s something for you here.. but anyways, I have to go now. Bye~” Sungmin grunts because Lee Hyukjae has been sending him more works recently. That stupid research was supposed to be by pair but with Hyukjae as your partner, it felt like an individual work.

He stands from his study table and drags himself to the door. He peeks out and sees a carton of milk and a note sticked to it. Is this suppose to be a prank?  He stares, or more like glares at it with disbelief as if it’s the milk’s fault for disturbing his study time. But I guess it’s better than receiving more works from that monkey.. He picks up the milk anyways and reads the note.

Feel better, Hyung. Just a few more days.

This stupid idiot. He curses at Lee Hyukjae because he has no single right to tell him to feel better when he’s been letting him do all the work. Yet, he drinks the milk. And being the kind research partner he is, he even thanks his lazy friend for the small gift.

Yah, Thanks for the milk.

From: Lee Hyukjae

To: Lee Sungmin

What milk?

From: Lee Sungmin

To: Lee Hyukjae

Didn’t you send me the milk?

From: Lee Hyukjae

To: Lee Sungmin

No I didn’t.

Who was he kidding? Hyukjae was never grateful anyways. Sungmin stares at the milk and widens his eyes. What if it was poisoned?! What if it was sent by the stupid girl from Bio who hates him?! Or what if it is a prank?! Sungmin thinks he's over acting already when he caughts himself looking for hidden cameras. He gives up because he sees no point in wasting time because of a lactose drink.

He gets a headache the next day for having only three hours of sleep. Sungmin has this mandate of stopping ALL that he's doing when the clock hits ten in the evening. Of course he had a healthy lifestyle, and eight complete hours of beauty sleep is whats most important for him. But last night was abominable. After spending too much time figuring the mystery of the milk, Hyukjae messages him again about if he was to give Sungmin milk, it would be strawberry flavored and how their professor was an inconsiderate bastard because it was their r
