Chapter 6

°Chan°

"Sungie, we're in class now and the teacher is about to enter. Do you want to get to your seat now?" I gently attempt to coax the young boy that still clung onto me off, however, the only response I earned was his soft whines and a tighter grip on me that gave a stern enough protest. Now without any plans left, I let him resume his position even as the teacher enters the room. Fortunately, the teacher only acknowledge it with a glance and understanding nod towards our direction that made me only slightly confused.

Jisung and I sat in the back mumbling and murmuring to ourselves before I decided to get a small sticky note and write a small note to the teacher before he left. The note read:

Dear Mr. Nam,

Hello.
My name is bang chan and I'm a new student. Jisung and I just met today and he suddenly become clingy, so he has decided to not leave me for a little while. Sorry for us being a potential distraction.

Also I want to let you know I'm from Australia and already know english, so do not worry too much about us.

Sincerely, Bang Chan

Handing the note to Changbin who was taking class notes, I thought of asked him to give it to the teacher. Looking up from his paper, he gives a quick nod before tailing off to the teacher's desk in the front. As he walked off my eye followed his path absentmindedly as I calmly rubbed a hand on Jisung's back who has probably fallen asleep as I hear his breath slows evenly. My eyes then settled on the teacher as he glances towards our direction and just nods as if understanding just from a simple note that was nothing more of an excuse from a "weird" scene you do not see everyday. I mean how often do you see two young boys hug onto each for no particular reason?

Classes has slowly climbed to an end and Jisung has remain in his position for 2 class periods make it roughly around 2 hours of basically cuddling to my side. To this, I didn't mind one bit as I not only had I made my first two true friends, but not to forget, I had found my soulmates! I couldn't be anymore lucky as I am right now. In fact, I just couldn't keep a smile off my face as I was immensely grateful for both Changbin and Jisung for stumbling into my life.

"Hey, guys you want to walk down to that cafe nearby—" popping himself into our conversation, Changbin abruptly stops his words to realized Jisung's current peaceful state. "Oh, he's asleep ain't he." Changbin then continues with a softer tone that forms itself more into a statement rather than a question.

"Don't worry, I can wake him," I respond to Changbin before turning my attention to the sleepy kola of a boy and gently strokes his head as a attempt. "Sungie, baby, wakey up now. Changbin says he'll buy us food."

Now with the natural petnane that has fallen from my lips, Jisung has, fortunately, slowly emerges out of his short-lived hibernation. However, on the other hand, with Changbin's "throwing him under the bus" scheme, he looked unsurprisingly offend. With this, I let out a chuckle as I reassured him that I instead was going to pay.

"Umm, what are guys laughing at?" Jisung finally arose from slumber to only be confused at the sudden laughter he probably both hear and felt as he was still wrapped around my chest.

"Nothing really, but we are about to head to the cafe nearby, so up you get because you're walking this time, buddy." I response to the sleep filled head before getting up with Jisung in my arms and then planting him onto his feet.

"Okay, let's get going!" Changbin exclaims after Jisung decided to link both Changbin and I as if we were now a literal chain. As we head out and walked, a smile remain on my face as I felt the gentle tugs of my white string that served as a constant reminder that I had found my soulmates.
