Chapter 26
Rhythm Inside“Congratulations graduates of 2021!” Everyone roared as soon as we heard the final words of our college chancellor.
I looked at my friends who are all jumping in joy as we finally ended our college journey. Finally, the chains holding us are finally unlocked.
With a smile, Yena put her arms around my shoulder before pulling me in a tight hug, “Congrats, our Summa!” She said as she squeezes me, “I’m so proud of you!”
I chuckle as I return the hug, “Congrats, dummy!” I said before we separate ourselves from our hug, “You did great, Choi.”
She looks at me smugly, “I’m a not laude for nothing,” She said with a shrug, her lips protruding in the process.
I just shake my head as I look at her, when Hyewon and Chaewon approach us, “Hey!” Chaewon greeted as soon as the stopped in front of us, “Congrats, dummies!”
“Congrats!” I said before engulfing them in a tight group hug, “I’ll see you in New York and ing seal that deal.” I said as I looked at them.
Hyewon nodded, “Of course, we will.” She said before patting my back, “Eunbi’s waiting for you, Lee.” She added pointing behind me.
I turn around and cannot help but smile when Eunbi waves to me, “I’ll see you tomorrow morning, guys.” I said before making my way towards my wife.
Eunbi welcomes me with her warm smile before pulling me in a hug, “Congrats, Chae.” She mumbles against my shoulder, “You did great.”
I squeeze her before letting her go, “Thank you, Eun,” I said before pecking her soft lips, “Should we go and celebrate, then?”
She chuckles, “Your parents are already outside,” She said as we walk towards the exit of our auditorium, “We’ll have dinner with them then, we have the rest of the night.”
I nodded as I held her hand tighter, intertwining it with mine. I smile when I felt her squeezing my hand and feeling the warmth of it against my own.
“Congrats, Chaeyeon,” Chaeryeong said once we stopped in front of them, “I’m so proud of you, twin.” She said patting my shoulder.
I gave her a smile, “Congrats, Ryeong,” I said before giving her a short hug, “I’m so proud of you, too.”
She gave me a small smile before our parents walked up to us, “Congrats to the both of you,” Mom said giving us a kiss on the cheek, “We’ll have a simple celebration with some of our relatives, okay?”
Chaeryeong and I nodded because we both know we cannot go against their idea. After our small chitchats, we finally settle ourselves in our cars with me and Eunbi together in one while Chaeryeong with our parents.
“Hey, Chaeyeon!” I turn around when I heard someone calling my name, “Long time no see!” a running Daehwi approached me before engulfing me into a bone crushing hug.
I looked at Eunbi who’s standing behind Daehwi who’s looking at us with the look I can’t decipher; panic soon arises to me when she turns around before she starts walking. Seeing her walking away, I immediately push Daehwi before running towards Eunbi
