  ❝ About fifty percent, exam days seem to go wrong ❞

 S O O Y U N 

THE NIGHT HAD QUICKLY VANISHED. Now the sun is beaming, brightening the blue ocean sky, extending its rays, flickering my face as I run upstairs towards the entrance door of college. 

I find myself inside, hearing my phone chime, ding! 

Bacon 🍳 : Did Jhope melt you today?

Sueyum  : Shut up

Bacon 🍳 : 😂 In that case, don't melt when you actually meet him

Sueyum ✨ : That's unbelievbubble and not gonna happen 75%

Bacon 🍳 : For shizzle's sake, Sooyun! Get your act together and stop being childish. aND why you always lying?

Sueyum ✨ :  damn it, fine! NOW STOP TEXTING ME AND GO PRACTICE

Bacon 🍳 : But I wanna talk to my cute small sister 😛

Sueyum ✨ : I am not small

Bacon 🍳: You're 5'4 and Jhope is 5'10 😏

Sueyum ✨ : Shut up 😣 Unless you wanna create a scandal. I'll cut you ✂ 😃

Bacon 🍳 : Hey! No need to be rude.  I'm kidding! But really Soo, take care and good luck on your exam. I gotta go 💜 ✨✨

Sueyum ✨ :  Bye and thxs. Good luck to you too! 💜 ✨✨✨

Bacon 🍳 : Don't bump into the door

I'm texting my brother while walking through the hallway inside of my college, blocking out unwanted noise as my earbuds are plugged in my ear listening to a playlist I created that's on shuffle. 

Apparently, No More Dream started playing. What a way to enjoy your time before taking your Algebra exam, Sooyun.

Baekhyun reminded me, don't bump into the door. Me being the clumsy person I am . . . has her eyes glued to the phone, doesn't keep her eyes forward, and walks straight into the doorway of 1st period with my face slammed against it.

Frick my life.

Quickly, the tardy bell rings once my feet steps in class and everyone turns silent when I realize who's behind me. Frick, frick, frick. I did not just enter when my professor did too.

Can someone please explain why this day couldn't get any better? 

My mathematics professor clears his throat, standing behind me. I spin around very slowly, teeth gritted, my face screaming ghostly 'I am dead'. His expression slightly perplexes me, he looks keenly at me, like a hawk before I let out an audible hi. 

"Hi . . . " The word just slips out of my mouth, hanging there in the air as if a cricket began it's orchestra, leaving nothing but awkward silence concealing the small classroom. 

He grimaces.

Then his eyes turn dark and his smile drops, pulling his lips into a heavy disappointed frown eating up my entire existence. I have never gone on his bad side until today. 

"Park Sooyun."

 Frick, frick, frick.  

The sound of my name coming out of his mouth echoes throughout the classroom, unsteadying me that my hand plants on a desk nearby, my fingers gripping it from under, and I'm trying too hard to not seem like an idiot.

An idiot I am.

My cheeks are burning of embarrassment, ears alert me of laughing sounds bouncing off the thin walls. "Yes, sir? You sure seem under the cloud today, would you like some tea and cookies?" 

I try to ease strain weighing on my shoulder, giving him a small sweet smile, showing puppy eyes. He just looks at me in a disgruntled way where his eyes are piercing through mine, his arms crossed over his shoulders. His eyes narrow at me, leaning in as if he heard something.

Oh my gosh.

I never had my earplug plugged correctly to my phone.

Geojitmariya you such a liar. . . .See me see me ya neon wiseonjaya . . . wae jakku ddan gireul garae ya neona jalhae jebal gangyohajin marajwo  [That's a lie, you such a liar. See me see me. ya you're a hypocrite. Why you're telling me go on a different path? Take care of yourself. Don't force me.] 

La la la la~

Ni ggumi mwoni ni ggmu mwoni mwnoi~ [What's your dream, what's your dream?]

Everyone just stares at me. 

Silence again fills every fiber being inside of me. I want to crawl into a hole and hide there forever. Embarrassment stings my cheeks. My eyes search for my bestie, Haeun and I can't seem to find her anywhere. 

. . . I don't care if Professor Kang is glaring at me right now because I spot Haeun looking at me deadly serious straight in the eye.

She facepalms herself.

Frick.

I turn around. This time, I reach out my hand to Professor Kang, a small smile appears widely across my red face. "Next time be on class on time and phones aren't allowed during class hours, especially testing days." He emphasizes, staring me down.

"Y—yes sir . . . " I say quietly, shoving my phone in the pocket of my jeans and walk backward without bumping into any objects this time. 

The corners of my eyes tell me where I'm heading as I find a seat next to Haeun.

I slip onto the chair, sliding off my backpack, and throw it against the desk's leg. 

Still not over the fact I came in class late with No More Dream playing loudly, interrupting the class's serene atmosphere, I slouch, crossing my arms over another on the desk, and heavily drop my head on my arms as a headrest, sighing of humiliation.

"You seriously bombed it."

"Yeah, Bangtan bombed it."

She laughs and I start laughing—we stop, our laughs faintly disappearing into thin air at the sight off hawk-like eyes staring us all the way down into the rabbit hole Alice fell into.

"Miss Haeun, and Sooyun . . . may I remind you, today is testing day and I will not tolerate any noise disrupting this serene atmosphere I wish to keep during testing days. So if you will please, lower your volume, or if you don't, I'm afraid, I will turn off your play button so you both can be on silence." Professor Kang deadpans.

We look at each other thunderstruck, wide eyes, paleness painting our once shining face. And then we blink once, or maybe twice before we gain realization, drowning us in the sea of Icarus.

Both of us whip our head over our shoulder, responding strictly respectfully as if we're robots and he commands us, "Yes sir, Professor Kang Sir."

"Those are my two astounding girls."







A/N: I think I've actually accomplished something in this chapter and the upcoming chapters. I am saying this beforehand so you won't be like what? So you don't get confused, please read chapter three to understand chapter five!

UrMyHope I dedicated this chapter to you for being kind and encouraging and I think you're pretty cool and sweet and of course your writing is beautiful just like you.

You guys gotta check her book Drawn To You a Jungkook FF 💖 

Can we appreciate Jhope's forehead in No More Dream Era and how he gives off the bad boy vibe? I'm not even saying anything, he's literally one minute an angel and then a devil 😅

Here's another because why not and so on. You might need holy water [okay but like there's no smut in this book like I've started at the start of this book. Please understand beautiful people. A book doesn't need to have smut to make it really good. A book can also be really good without smut] But of course there will be k _ _ _ _ _ _ 😏 

*Wiggles eyebrows*

What is he trying to do to us? In what way does he suppose this will hurt us? Oh wait, he's been killing us since 2014  😊 😊 

Me: *whispers* put that tongue back where it belongs

Jhope: *Continues his act*

Me: Well okay, it's fine! I'm fine 😂
