Are You Okay?
The IT HunterSitting on the plump arm chair in the corner of the office, I looked around as I waited for the people to come and pick me up. The office was large, with see through glass walls and two entrances. There were several long wooden counters with staff sitting behind it, busy looking at the computer or reading paper documents. Looking past the counters, I could see another walkway leading to many more rooms which I assume were the offices of important characters. I quickly made a mental blueprint of this place and carved it into my brain just incase I get involved in combat. There were many students walking in and out of the main hallway.
I was familiar with Mafia, crack houses, and even the military, but school was totally new for me. Today was my first mission working undercover at a high school, I was both nervous and excited. Interacting with humans and make friends had always been part of my goals. But I doubt that I could accomplish this goal under a fake identity.
As I gazed around in awe, two males walked in. I didn't turn to face them but observed them from my peripheral view. It had been a hunting rule, never startle your prey, observe them from the shadows. "We are here, Ms.Zhang," one of the male said loudly.
The secretary looked up and shook her head in displease, "keep it down, Chanyeol, this is a school."
The other boy suddenly turned to look at me. I looked back and held his gaze, showing no sign of weakness. His pupils changed as I stared into them. Breaking the intense eye contact, he turned away to Mrs. Zhang, "is this her?"
The lady nodded, "please show Abi around the school and make her feel welcomed."
"No problem!" The male named Chanyeol yelled.
"Keep quiet and get going, you shouldn't miss class," Mrs. Zhang hissed and glared at him.
The other male walked closer to me with a friendly smile on his face. He had very beautiful features, but what caught my attention the most was the perfectly symmetrical dimples on either side of his cheeks. After the two males led me out of the office, they let out a long sigh.
"Phew, I thought I was going to die back there, trust me, you don’t want to get on Mrs. Zhang’s bad side," said the male called Chaneyol. "My name is Chayeol," he introduced before pointing to his friend, "and this is Lay. Nice to meet you, Abi?" Lay nodded and smiled at me, showing off his cute dimples.
"Yep, my name is Abi, nice to meet you too, Lay and Chanyeol," I smiled back.
"So... what family are you from?" Lay suddenly asked.
My body tensed and my defense shot up. "Why do you want to know?" I replied put a bold act on. My heart was pounding against my chest. I prayed silently that my identity is still safe.
"Oh," Chanyeol said after a pause, "Ms.Zhang called the two of us to show you around. But when it’s just a normal student transferring, she would get normal students to do the job. Only when it's some rich or famous students, she would get us."
