INVISIBLE STRING - Duan Jia Xu

     HUI YING BEGAN TO PACK HER BAGS, as her roommate groaned.  They had been studying a lot for their finals, and even the slightest noise could bring them out of their focus. Which is why Seo Yoon Ji was groaning.

Hui Ying bit her lip. "Sorry." She quickly apologized, she was definitely going to treat them boba after her intelegical class on algorithms & problem solving. It was a class that teaches stuff they didn't teach in her classes, and she really needed the information.

She also saw it as an opportunity to ask the professors about why her code was falling as she had to code something and it hadn't been working which frustrated it.

"It's okay." Yoon Ji spoke, shrugging off her friend as she stood up to go over towards their mini fridge that they had in their room. Grabbing out some banana milk, she grabbed another one in her other hand and tossed it towards Hui Ying.

Hui Ying had caught it by just a second, if she hadn't moved it would've landed on the floor.

Hui Ying gasped almost, shocked by the fact that her roommate hadn't given her a warning. "Hey!" She shouted, she wasn't angry or anything, in fact she was laughing. "That would've been a good waste of some delicious milk." She spoke softly.

Yoon Ji shrugged her shoulders. "But you did catch it." Yoon Ji winked, she had this sort of overly confident vibe to her. Hui Ying guessed it was because Yoon Ji started to understand the material she needed to learn.

Hui Ying shook her head, packing up her bag as she prepared herself to leave.

"Your leaving right?" Yoon Ji called her, she sipped strongly on the banana milk as her eyes watched her roommate. "To that lecture?"

Hui Ying nodded her head. "Yeah, to that class I told you about."

Yoon Ji nodded her head, placing down the milk as she gave some papers towards Hui Ying. "Could you give these to Hae Rin?" Yoon Ji handed over some papers with marks on them. "I know she'll be there at the lecture, she told me." Yoon Ji spoke softly.

Hui Ying nodded her head, she wasn't questioning it but she was confused onto why she had to give it to someone she didn't talk to. "Okay, i'll tell her you gave it to me." Hui Ying nodded her head.

Yoon Ji nodded her head as well, turning her body to go back towards her chair. "And tell her i said hi." Yoon quickly added, making sure to be quick before Hui Ying was out the door.

The girl stopped in her tracks, a sly smile on her lips as she turned her head towards her friend. "Is there anything else?" Hui Ying asked, the smile growing wider as she saw how red Yoon Ji had gotten.

"No!" Yoon Ji quickly responded, swatting her away. "That's all, have fun!" She quickly rushed her, before turning her eyes back towards the book.

Hui Ying laughed lightly, smiling widely as she started to roam the halls of her university. She had to admit that to see Yoon Ji so happy and blushing was something new, she found it fun. Yoon Ji was normally very cold in a way, she was nice and could joke but she wasn't warm and open like Sang Zhi.

Who she hadn't spoken to yet, she had still yet to make a phone call asking her how it was going in her first year of university.

The girl nodded to herself, agreeing that just before the lesson she would call Sang Zhi asking her how it was going.

     HUI YING MADE HER WAY TOWARDS THE CLASS ENTRANCE, she saw how some people were already sitting in the lecture hall but it wasn't packed yet. Normally she would immediately go inside and sit down, but since it was still a good 20 minutes she didn't.
