chapter 4
Be mine. I love you, okay?"Where did he go?" Sunggyu said as he turned round and round. "I'm sure he went this way."
Sunggyu turned to his right when he saw something passed sideways down the hallway. "Who's there?" No one answered. He dragged his feet slowly in a tip toe. Another shadow running from his back and he turned around when he heard the steps. A sudden icy draught sent a shiver down his spine. He gulped the lump of saliva that started to form in his mouth. Bravely, he decided to run for it. He took a deep breath and started running.
Again, Sunggyu saw the shadow passed at one of the four hallways that he was trapped in. What is this? He tried to escape but it seems like each route he took leads to the same place again. Where is he? He didn't know that the school was so big that he could get lost like this. He closed his eyes, praying that he could at least go away from this scary place. He felt like each movements he made was controlled by some sort of evil power. A drop of tear slid down Sunggyu's cheek.

"Yah!" a voice called for him to wake up. Sunggyu woke up, feeling his body cramped up and wet. Wait, wet? He looked up to see the guy he was searching for. He was laughing, again. Sunggyu saw the glitter in his eyes as he laughed and couldn't help but feel warm inside.
"Yah," Sunggyu said in a cold voice. The other man stopped laughing and watched as Sunggyu tried to sit up. "What happened?"
"You fainted!" he said and started to laugh again. He clutched his stomach and his face started to become red. "I put a joke on you and you fell for it! Haha!"
Sunggyu was embarassed. He admit, but at the same time he was angry that this guy was playing on him. "Can you explain why i'm wet?" Sunggyu asked through gritted teeth.
"You, you, haha! I woke you up with that," he said and pointed to a pail sitting next to him.
"I'm wet and you find that funny?!" Sunggyu blurted out and balanced himself up and pushed him. He tumbled backwards but Sunggyu kept pushing him. Sunggyu pinned him to the ground. Sunggyu was sitting on top of him. He pulled on his collar and leaned forward. "You find this funny- achoo!!"
-------
"Where am I- achoo!"
"You're home Gyu, the school nurse called and said you fainted," his mother said as she took Sunggyu's temperature. "How can you fall into the swimming pool like that? You know you can't swim."
'Me falling into the swimming pool? When?' Sunggyu tried to stand up but his mother pulled him down.
"You are not recovered yet Sunggyu."
"But mom, I need to go back to school now."
"School's over." Sunggyu sighed. He hoped tomorrow would be a better day. So many things happened in just one day. Bad things he guessed, but at least he made two friends, Hoya and Sungjong.
