After The Lecture ~ Minsung

33 Camera

'they sit still in class but their knuckles remember every fight they won to make it there'

"Are we sure this isn't some kind of a joke?"

"There were photos a few times. It's real, the blackmailing is real. I know who's doing it." Jisung stated to the group of 7, all seated in the cafe at their lunch. Since 3 lecturers also received their lists, they were also included in the action.

"You knew the whole time and didn't tell?" Hyunjin pinned him with a look.

"I did not know the whole time. I had an idea after we saw the cameras recording. I texted him, and he answered me a few days ago... The person blackmailing us is my first boyfriend."

"First boyfriend...?" Jeongin repeated, confused.

"You bitch had a boyfriend before Minho and didn't tell us?!"

"Calm down, Lix, you can't say things like that aloud."

"How come we have never heard of him?"

"I hate talking or even thinking about him. He was my whole world in high school, and later under duress, because he didn't let me think about anything else. Such a toxic son of a bitch, I'm happy I'm over him."

"Are we doing the same thing to him as we did to Sehyun?" Felix smiled evilly.

"I don't even wanna know what you did to him." Chan moved away from the table a bit, pretending to be scared. Or he was a little scared.

"No, we're not. He wasn't that awful. He liked to hit me or say mean things, but he didn't force me to do this. Not physically."

"I'm so gonna kill this guy when I see him." Minho hissed with an extremely clenched jaw.

"Calm down, tiger. He put multiple messages in our lockers. He's good at it, we have to admit." Hyunjin looked amused by Minho's reaction, but he was also surprised that Jisung didn't tell them sooner.

"Do you have any plan for how to catch him?"

"He's not a student at our uni, I've already checked it and done some social media stalking. He has to put these letters with help from someone from the inside. Nonetheless, it was him on the recording we saw."

"Who could it possibly be?"

"Are you serious?" Seungmin looked at his boyfriend. "We have plenty of enemies here. Anyone could be just jealous of our position and achievements."

"Maybe we should check the recordings again to see if he's still the one giving us these letters?"

"I think it's not necessary. Can you contact him, Ji?"

"I texted him. But he texted back after almost a week. I doubt he'd answer if I asked him something."

"Maybe it's worth a try?" Felix had a pleading gaze directed toward Jisung. "You know we would be in big trouble if someone figures it out."

"I will text him. What should I ask him? What does he want?"

"Exactly. Let's not show that it's important for us, we will ask him what we can do to stop him later."

"So, we have a deal. Be careful with what you are doing."

They checked the time and started to get up from the table.

"Sorry we've put you in this." Jeongin said to Chan when they were leaving, and they were the ones walking at the end of the group.

"It's not an issue. I have nothing to hide and nothing to be blackmailed about." Chan smiled at him, the smile being so full of warmth and ensuring that even the younger felt lighter.
