Where is it?!
unrequited loveAs soon as she turned the corner Naeun stopped there and took huge lungfuls of air, her cheeks on fire. "He noticed me..." she said to herself over and over, squealing in happiness. She headed for the cafeteria happily to sit with her friends and eat lunch, not noticing the drawing she'd dropped.
In ten minutes what had once been a slightly cloudy blue sky turned dark and ominous, promising rain if not a thunderstorm. "Let's go back inside" Gongchan said, hand shielding his eyes as he looked up. The other boys agreed except for Taemin, who wouldnt have minded getting a little wet, but last time he'd gotten into a mud fight with them and been punished for coming into class filthy, maybe it would be best to head in. As they were walking rain started pouring so they picked up their pace, myungsoo was far behind because unlike the boys running he thought it would be smarter to walk along under the awnings around the school to get to the cafeteria. As he turned a corner he stepped on a grubby white piece of paper, he stopped and picked it up, trying to carefully wring out the water, though there was mud on it as well. It was a picture of a boy, but it was so smudged now he couldnt make out the face. He peered closely at it, then in the corner noticed a tiny signature. "Naeun..." he grinned. She was drawing them while playing soccer, and in his excitement he thought she must have been drawing him. He excitedly ran for the cafeteria and spotted her sitting with her friends, waving over to her so that the whole lunchroom could see.
Naeun froze with her chopsticks halfway to , staring in shock at myungsoo who was still waving at her. Her friends, Jinri and Soo jung, turned towards him as well and burst into giggles. "oh my god! have you two started dating?!" soo jung asked, clasping her hands excitedly. Naeun shook her head frantically, head down as she continued to eat. Jinri smiled and took her lunchbox from her so shed be forced to focus on them. "Why is he waving at you then?" she asked, hands on her hips. Naeun looked up nervously, he stopped waving now and continued to the seats accross the hall where his friends were. Thats when she noticed the grubby piece of paper he held in his hand, it looked familiar. Her face immediately went pale. "I dont know, maybe he likes me..." she finished, causing the other two girls to go "oooooh..." and giggle again. Naeun, pretending to look casual, opened her notebook and calmly searched through it to make sure her drawing was safe. When she couldnt find it she looked through her backpack, her movements becoming more and more frantic. Eventually she stood up again, packing everything back into her bag. "Where are you going?" soo jung asked. "Bathroom!" naeun replied before sprinting for the doors again. she was heading outside to search for her drawing, hoping against all odds that it wasnt in the hand of the boy shed seen earlier.
