   Ms. Park was the only teacher Sora could tolerate, she rather found her delightful. The teenager never skipped her class nor failed one test in the subject, actually she would participate and give the best of her. Ms. Park was aware of Sora's situation and when her personality went downhill, the teacher was the only one who, instead of scolding and holding her accountable for her mistakes, tried to help her. Sora had mad respect for the woman and she would always be grateful for what she did.

"You punks. Take your seats now. Move it" the teacher announced while putting her things in her desk. "Hi, good morning. Hand in your phones".

Sora didn't have a problem with this, but she was way to lazy to stand up and go where Ms. Park was. She did it anyways.

"Anybody in touch with Hyeonju?" They all shook their heads in a way of saying no. "None of you tried calling her?" Sora wasn't worried for her, in fact she didn't like Hyeonju. She was friends with Gwinam and that was enough of a reason to stay back. "If anyone hears from her, let me know right away, okay?" And that's how class started.

Sora never struggled with English since her parent paid for personal lessons. But today she found it hard to concentrate, maybe the reason she was feeling anxious had to do with a distressed Heesu that couldn't stop clutching her stomach.

"Who wants to interpret this?" Ms. Park asked. "Okay, Heesu" she added after seeing her standing up.

"I need to use the bathroom" and just like that she left.

Sora turned around and couldn't help but to feel concern for Heesu, even though they weren't close, she was her classmate.

She didn't notice that Namra answer the teacher quest, she neither noticed everyone laughing at a clueless Suhyeok. The thing that snapped her thoughts was a bloody Hyeonju getting inside of the classroom.

"Hey. What's wrong? Are you okay?" Everyone circled Hyeonju with a frown on their faces but keeping distance to not overwhelmed her.

"Ms. Park" she could barely talked.

"Yes, it's me. Do you recognize me?"

The only thing Sora could understand before Suhyeok, Onjo and Isak took her to the infirmary was something about how the science teacher locked and tied her.

The teacher was still busy with the Hyeonju's situation, so in the meantime the students started talking about crazy theories. Sora couldn't help but to laugh at some of them thinking they were way to insane. After a while Isak came back, but there was no sign from Onjo or Suhyeok. Isak explained something about Hyeonju trying to bite them and how Onjo got hurt by it.

Sora started thinking what could possibly happened to Hyeonju. Like she said before, she wasn't bothered by it one bit, she was just curious and a little worried for Onjo, since she hadn't come back from the infirmary.

"You are worried for Onjo's safety, am  I right?" Sora saw Cheongsan's concern look so she tried to talk to him.

"How could you tell, am I being that obvious?"

"It's literally written in your ugly face" Now, Sora was obviously lying saying ugly face but she was trying to form a smile in the boy. And it worked. Cheongsan laughed and playfully  pushed her shoulder.

"Ha ha ha very funny, Choi. I'm going to look for Onjo, you coming?" Okay one thing that caused the butterflies in her stomach was when he called her by her last name. Maybe it was the way he said it or because it was an inside joke between the both, but every time Cheongsan would called her Choi her heart would skip a beat.

"Sure, whatever Lee" Sora made an effort to sound unbothered.

At the same time the two friends were walking their way to the infirmary Sora got the urge to tell Cheongsan about her feelings towards him. She was about to open her mouth when he beat her to it.

"She's not here. I'm getting a bad hunch about this, let's keep looking" Sora just nodded after seeing the messy bed and a needle thrown in the floor.

"You know, Cheongsan, there is something I've wanted to tell you for so long but I can't find the words to say this".

"Uhmm, sure, you can tell me after we find Onjo, deal?" Sora knew that right now her friend was the priority, but couldn't Cheongsan stop for a second to listen what she had to say? This is what pissed Sora, that she was always, no matter what, the second option, she kind of felt like the second lead character in a kdrama who is always left behind.

"But I really have to talk to you, is kind of import-"

"Onjo! I heard you got hurt. Where? How bad is it? You are so clumsy" He interrupted Sora the second his eyes met Onjo's.

"I'm fine" and just like that she left.

"Was she hurt badly? She was careless again, wasn't she?"

"Gosh, Cheongsan, she just said she's fine, why are you stubborn?" Sora rolled her eyes at his friend stubbornness.

"Sora's right she is fine. But talking about Onjo, are you going out with her" Suhyeok said with a teasing smirk. This made Sora choke and she almost lost it. "Omg Sora are you alright??"

"Yes, yes, everything's fine. I'm just going to the classroom and talk to Onjo" This was the only thing Sora could think to excuse herself from there. She, of course, didn't want to listen whatever Cheongsan was about to say. Besides she started to feel hungry, and luckily for her, lunch was next.
