“Class 10-3,” said In Hyeong to himself.
Cha In Hyeong, a 16-year-old girl who managed to get into the number one school in Busan, Busan International School. And there comes a day where In Hyeong will be a high school student for the first time. When he was so excited, he came first from the other students.
“We're in the same class?”
Hearing someone's voice greeting him, In Hyeong blinked quickly and turned his eyes to the boy who had been standing next to him.
“I, Jang Yon Bin,” Yon Bin said as he reached out.
With hesitation and a little awkward In Hyeong returned a helping hand.
“Cha In Hyeong.”
Soon, he let go of his post and Yon Bin could only endure the amused smile of seeing him.
“Do you want to go to class together?” tawar Yon Bin's.
“Oh, yes. Sure.”
A second later, the two had already stepped hand in hand towards the classroom 10-3 located on the second floor. During the walk, In Hyeong looked amazed paying attention around the school while, Yon Bin's gaze focused on him with a frown.
“Have you never been here?”
“Oh, ever. Register time,” sahut In Hyeong.
Hearing his reply, Yon Bin's forehead grew even more wrinkled.
“I noticed from earlier you look very carefree, as if you had just set foot here for the first time. Didn't we already go around during the introduction of the school environment?”
“Oh, the. Hehe. I was sick at the time. So, can't get in and it's the first time I've looked into the school environment,” said In Hyeong who had bowed shyly.
And Yon Bin could only smile as he shook his head to look at his behavior.
“This is our class,” said Yon Bin.
In front of one of the classrooms with a small board reading 10-3 hanging, Yon Bin let In Hyeong enter first. He chose a seat in the corner of the classroom near the window whereas, Yon Bin thoughtlessly immediately took his place behind him.
A moment later, In Hyeong was already standing behind the concrete fence in front of their class. For a moment he watched the students in front of the next class who looked familiar. His gaze seemed empty until someone gently patted his shoulder and made him flinch.
“Hai, I'm Oh Min Ah. You?”
The girl named Oh Min Ah greeted so kindly that it made her feel dazed. His forehead was momentarily wrinkled to see Min Ah who was small and only had a height no more than his shoulders.
“Sweet,” he said unknowingly.
“What?” min Ah asked in a slightly shrill voice.
“Oh! Its alright. I'm Cha In Hyeong. Greetings,” said In Hyeong quickly.
Not caring about all the confusion, Min Ah also seemed to focus on paying attention to the other students who started arriving from the second floor. Some time both of them were silent and a moment In Hyeong had a look into the classroom. He saw a pastel blue backpack located next to his seat.
“That blue bag is yours?” in Hyeong asked in a bold manner.
“Iya. The purple bag is yours, right?” sahut Min Ah is carefree.
“Iya. Where do you know?” in Hyeong asked in a daze.
“Only the three of us who just arrived in this class,” said Min Ah.
“Oh. You know Yon Bin?” in Hyeong asked curiously.
Min Ah looked at him.
“Child sitting behind you?”
“Iya.”
“No,” said Min Ah while shaking fast, “I think he's your friend,” he added with a frown.
“Not. I only got to know before class. I met him in front of the notice board. I didn't have a friend who went to school with me when I was in seventh grade. How about you?”
“Mmm. But, she is in a different class to me,” Min Ah said.
“In Hyeong, the entrance bell hasn't rang yet, right? It's almost 9:00,” said Yon Bin who suddenly stood by In Hyeong's side while looking at his watch.
Simultaneously the two stared at Yon Bin who looked seriously paying attention around the field as if looking for someone.
“I think it will soon read,” said In Hyeong confused, “are you waiting for someone? You look a little nervous,”.
Immediately, Yon Bin throws a glance at In Hyeong who instantly avoids him. And Min Ah, who had been watching, was mistaken when Yon Bin threw a smile at them.
“You two are sweet. Make good friends,” said Yon Bin as he smiled amusedly before returning to pay attention to every corner of the field.
DRIIIIIIIIII…
Bruum…
Along with the entrance bell, the roar of a red auto motorcycle was heard filling the school. Every pair of eyes paid attention to the figure of the student who had arrived so late. However, between the crowd and the focus of the students, In Hyeong momentarily glanced at Yon Bin who seemed to carve a meaningful smile.
And after the student parked his motorbike, curiosity increasingly filled the other students and made In Hyeong's view blocked. He finally went up to a long chair where Min Ah was standing earlier.
“Actually who is he?” min Ah asked without letting go of her sight.
“Do not know. Let's see,” said In Hyeong
The student who stole the attention slowly opened his helmet and showed his face so white with a sharp nose and a firm jaw. It is undeniable that all students at that time immediately amazed by it.
His sharp gaze immediately pointed at Yon Bin had already noticed him from earlier. But, there was no communication from the two, only the gaze of the eyes they could understand and immediately, the student stepped leisurely regardless of his surrounding gaze.
“You know in.. kyaaa..”.
BRUK!
“IN HYEONG!”
WUHAN…
Uncompleted yet, In Hyeong suddenly tumbled forward and rolled on the roof of the first floor. Unknowingly Yon Bin shouted followed by the loud cries of the other students who were also surprised to see him who was now hanging on the end of the roof.
“Jin Ho! Help me!” yon Bin shouted.
The newly arrived student seemed indifferent for a while until Yon Bin shouted at him. He stared flatly at Yon Bin who looked panicked and was so expecting his help.
“Jin Ho, find a mattress or something!” yon Bin reigned as he slowly stepped over the fence.
Relax, the student named Jin Ho did not move in the least. He only looked at Yon Bin who had stepped carefully to the end of the roof.
“HEY! JOON JIN - HO! HURRY!” yon Bin snapped which looked exhausted of patience.
“Yo, Yon Bin, to, help me,” said In Hyeong who started sobbing.
“Hey, don't you just stand? Help find the mattress!”
The impact of Yon Bin instantly made all the students on the second floor run around frantically wanting to do his orders. Meanwhile, Jin Ho remained unmoved.
“Yon, Yon Bin, be careful,” said Min Ah nervously.
“Joon Jin Ho, what are you doing?! Help me?!” for the umpteenth time Yon Bin shouted.
“Either I'm the pervert or you know.”
Hearing Jin Ho's distinctive hoarse voice uttering a strange statement, the entire school was silent at once.
“If I help her, it's hard work. First, I ran to and fro looking for a mattress. Second, I have to open my school coat first. Third, I must cover her legs covered only in short skirts heading to the UKS. Wh why? Because she doesn't wear any other interior except her black CD.”
“Kyaaa..”.
BRUK!
“Akh!”
Suddenly Jin Ho's explanation surprised everyone, not least In Hyeong who spontaneously took off her grip. His body fell on Jin Ho's head and made them instantly unconscious.
