As I wiped the last table , my eyes darted towards the glass door for the 52612458256390th time. There were no signs of the BAP guys. How weird. They usually leave The Hideout around this time. Did they leave earlier today ? No way, I would've seen them with their bulky equipment, talking loudly to one another. Hmm , I wonder where they are .

I glanced at my watch. 7:55AM. ! I'm going to be late again. I threw the rag at a nearby chair, untie my apron and rushed out of Coffee Machine. I quickened my pace, nearby shops passing by me in a blinding flash.

" WAITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT , " I screamed at the guy that was closing the school gate.

" Late again huh Ho-eun ? " he smirked. I smiled sheepishly at him and hurried towards my class.

After slumping down into my seat , I instinctively turned my head towards Youngjae and Daehyun's seats. They were empty. That's weird. They were not at The Hideout and now they are not in school. Are they sick or something ?

" Annyeong Ho-eun ! "

" Oh , annyeong Sungjong-ah " I waved at my best friend.

" Have you done your Algebra homework ? I have a few questions that I don't really understand , " Sungjong looked at me, obviously troubled by his unfinished algebra homework.

I looked at him blankly and said , " WHAT ALGEBRA HOMEWORK ? "

" Zombie coming through , " I mumbled while walking into the cafeteria. My ears are hurting after being lectured for not completing my Algebra homework. My throat is hurting too from trying to explain why I did not finish my homework and then I had to persuade him NOT to tell my brother. I'll probably be locked up and never see daylight ever again. And then he threatened to punish me by giving me detention. All these just because I didn't do some stupid Algebra homework. Sometimes teachers make a big deal out of nothing.

" Here, I got you a ham sandwich. "

" Thanks best friend , " I smiled at Sungjong.

As we s our way through the increasing crowd, I looked around the cafeteria. Where are they ?

" Who are you looking for ? " Hoya's voice snapped me back into reality.

" Umm ....... no one in particular , " I stuttered and looked away, afraid that my brother would notice my pink cheeks.

" Oh did you guys heard ? " Yeol spoke, his tone laced with enthusiasm.

" What ? Did you come up with a new business plan ? " Dongwoo teased.

Yeol shot him a look. " NO , it's not a new business plan. It's the BAP guys. "

My ears pricked up at the mention of BAP. My half eaten sandwich free fall onto the table.

" They were caught playing at The Hideout last night. You guys know that minors like us sadly can't enter that club right ? And they were actually playing there every night ! Wow ! "

" So what now ? Are they gonna go to jail ? " Woohyun asked.

" I don't think so. They can't be jailed cause they are still minors. Besides, they were just working there. But I heard they'll probably get suspended for two weeks from school and banned from playing there anymore. The Hideout will be ........................ "

My ears blocked out all the other sounds. Banned from playing ? But I only saw them perform a couple of times.

And I wanna see more of Himchan playing the drum, looking like a Greek God. This is just unfair.
