Soojung opened the door, revealing her boyfriend, who had been waiting outside in the hall. He quickly flashed a grin as he peered down at her. The male wore his hood, shielding his shadowing his features from other people. Retracting his hands from the pockets of his hoodie, his arms pulled her into a hug. Mark stooped a little lower, resting his face into the crook of her neck, occassionally gifting her light kisses. "Soojungie, I missed you..." 

She chuckled a little from his unexpected behavior, "Well, shoot, I missed you too, mork." 

Routinely, Mark never fails to stop by at night despite how late the time was for his study time with her. It was rare for him to ever have a break unless he came home extremely late. Lucky for him, Soojung always stayed up late every night even if she had school. The girl didn't mind staying up a little later with him if it meant they could fit in some time to see each other and help him with math. Tonight, it was around 2:30 AM when he arrived; he's gotten there later than that before.

He was smiling as he seated himself at the table, unpacking his backpack and taking out his textbook, notebook, pencil and calculator. "Soo, I have great news about the test I took the other day; I got a 91% on it~ Are you proud?" Soojung assumed that was why he was so smiley tonight despite how late in the night it was. The girl nodded at him, pecking him on the cheek before joining him at the table, "Of course." 

"Give me, like, fifteen minutes to try to review the problems I missed, please?" Soojung nodded at him, seeing how eager he was to go over exam problems he got incorrect. He actually picked up that habit from her after a while; a great strategy to study and improve in math. 

Her phone's screen lit up, catching her attention. Soojung quickly brought her attention to the texts she just received while Mark was in the middle of studying on his own.
