—— A WEEK LATER
"Hyerim." I heard a voice call me from behind, Sunghoon? He was approaching me, he never does though...
"Yes Sunghoon? Is there something I can help you with?" I tilted my head, waiting for the tall male to give me a response.
He seemed a bit hesitant, his face turning a bit pale from anxiousness. "There is something we need to talk about..."
"Hmm what is it??"
"They want you to become a street racer."
"Who?"
"Everyone..."
"Park Sunghoon what the hell are you talking about?" My heart pounded, I already had to beat being an announcer...what is he going on about now?
"The other teams found out that we took you in as a referee who has no experience with racing and is a first year. And it's against the rules to take a referee with no experience, but we were in desperation because no one came in to be our referee."
"We have no one to lead us...it's only you. I know it's a lot but we need you to street race. They threatened to tell the head master and we won't be able to street race anymore...Hyerim we have no choice." His voice turned shaky
"This is the way a lot of us have earned money for ourselves and our family. I'm not going to step down."
"How come im hearing this from you?"
The male inhaled deeply, "Everyone was nervous to tell you, they all forced me into doing it. It brought a lot of pressure...I'm not that good at explaining or even talking but you need to know that we need you."
That's why he was so hesitant. He was lacking socials skills, that's why he's always so quiet. I wonder why.
"What about the other boys?" I raised a brow.
"Their schedules are too busy, Heeseung and Niki are dance majors. They train all day and all night, Sunoo is always out at the museums to present his artwork and Jake has to practice a lot for soccer. They all refused."
I darted my eyes towards the floor, "Fine...I'll do this. Its not going to be easy for me to do this alone though...do you know who will teach me?"
"You might not want to hear this but..."
"But what? Who is it?"
"We want you to train quickly so we asked help from the best...."
"You have got to be kidding me, don't even say it."
"Yang Jungwon."
"Damn it." I muttered under my breath, this was my final straw.
—— MIDNIGHT
I hopped into the male's car and sharply stared at him. "Be honest, what did you do to the last referee?"
"Simple, beat him up for announcing the wrong top lead."
"So you did do something, not a surprise."
"Don't tell Jangmi though, I'm warning you. I'm teaching you after all, we're gonna see each other every other day." He scoffed, looking down at his steering wheel.
"So how long until they tell the headmaster."
"They gave us...5 months."
"What?! How will I do it in 5 months."
"Train everyday."
"With you?"
"Correct. You are too lucky, you get that?" He questioned, lucky my ass. I'd rather go jump off a cliff then be inside this asshole's ugly car.
