Meant To Be, Or Not? - [YEONGYU FF]

Chapter 20

"Sorry," Beomgyu mumbled.

"It's not that I'm against men crying, I'm a crybaby myself... I just hate to see you sad."

Oh.

That sent Cupid's arrow straight into Beomgyu's heart, probably sending blood all the way from there to his cheeks.

"I fully understand it's upsetting to feel and be taken advantage of. If you really don't want to do it because it scares you and makes you feel uncomfortable, you can tell Professor Jeon. He seems like a nice guy, I'm sure he'll understand."

"I know, but... I already gave my word, and I do wanna try something new, you know?"

Yeonjun smiled at him.

"Then follow that spirit. Do something new as you want, and forget everything else, okay?"

Beomgyu gave a tiny smile.

"Alright... but again, I don't know how to act as a guide."

"Don't worry; I could help you with things you can't do. Or I could give some extra tips."

"That'd be great; thanks Hyung."

"No prob."

After Beomgyu had a photoshoot that was around 6 pm and lasted towards 7:30 pm, he went back home and immediately got to work on being a guide for new students.

Yeonjun was doing his homework at the dining table, but he stopped when the red haired came back, and was ready to answer some questions.

"So, how should I start?" Beomgyu asked.

He looks like a cute clueless child— what am I thinking. 

"Well, you can begin with just saying hello, and then introducing what the university offers, from business management to veterinary training and so on. Then, you can list some of the important members of the school staff, and then show them more of the building so they can know their way around."

Beomgyu jotted it down in a little notebook he had to not forget it later, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Yeonjun was smiling at him endearingly.

It of course made his heart beat faster.

"Once you show them the building, then you can explain the ways around the school, and some tips on which shortcut to take if you're late, and which teachers or professors to go to in case of someone bullying or pestering you."

"Okay... those are good ideas."

Yeonjun smiled and patted his shoulder as a form of encouragement.

"You'll do great, I'm sure!"

"Yeah. What else could happen besides my reputation getting ruined?"

And again, they just laughed it off.

Thank you... for letting me open up to you again so rawly and... vulnerably.

It was now finally orientation day, and Beomgyu decided to let Brian drive him to the university to get there faster.

Yeonjun also joined in on the drive, as he also needed to be there earlier. His position was to do check-ins to make sure no one not on the list would get inside.

Very smart idea of the school.

Beomgyu could barely recognize the college building when we arrived; it looked so much more colorful and busy than usual.

Well, it made sense; there will be more people today.

The red haired model headed inside the building while Yeonjun sat down close to the gates (not forgetting to bid the younger good luck beforehand), and looked for Professor Jeon to give him all the maps he promised to hand out.

Speaking of, the professor was waiting in their classroom as planned, and immediately gave Beomgyu the stack.

"Here you go; you're gonna rock it," he smiled.

"Thanks sir."

Beomgyu headed back outside, and waited. After a while, he spotted a group of students that each had the letter B on their sticker, his assigned group, so he headed towards them.

"Hi guys, hi ladies, hi others," he cheerfully greeted.

"OH MY GOSH IS THAT CHOI BEOMGYU?!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS OH MY GOD!"

Beomgyu awkwardly laughed.

"Yeah, it's me."

"OH MY GOD HE GOES HERE—"

"Hey, we're here for orientation day, not for being a simp," a girl cut her off.

Beomgyu sent her a thankful smile, and cleared his throat.

"Welcome to Lotus Park University, a place where you can learn about..."

He had memorized everything that Yeonjun advised him to say.

"We value hard work and personality more than we value grades. Our motto is: where there is room to improve, there is room to learn..."

He continued by listing all of their important staff members and teachers (some even wrote it down in their phones or notebooks), and finished off by telling them where to find them in case of anything.

Some questions were asked here and there, and Beomgyu explained them as much as he could

"Come on, I'll show you all around the school now."

The members of his group were overly ecstatic to go with him, and Beomgyu did his best to ignore the fact it was mainly because he was doing the tour.

They first headed to the cafeteria, finding it the most important room in the university (duh, it's food after all), and then the library that was up on the second level.

"You'll find peace and quiet in here if you want to study," Beomgyu said with a smile.

He heard a few people giggle.

Yay. More fans again.

Mentally sighing, he faced his group again.

"Okay, now I will show you—"

BEEP

BEEP

BEEP

"FIRE!!"
