Chaeryeong sighs as she checks her phone and reads the message Taehyun just sent her. "Meet me at the library."

"Great, here I go dealing with that idiot again." She mumbles as she starts heading towards the library.

Chaeryeong finally reached the library, where she spots Taehyun already sitting on a table. She makes her way over to the table and sits down in front of him. "You better have a good reason you called me here.

"We need to select students who can handle peer tutoring." Taehyun explained looking at the list.

Chaeryeong slightly raises a brow. "Is that it?" She asks, slightly confused at first that it was the only reason for him to call her to meet him here. "Couldn't you just text me that?"

Taehyun couldn't respond and just stared blankly at her. "What? You don't have anything else to say?" Chaeryeong asks, getting annoyed at Taehyun's blank expression.

"Can you take a seat so we can talk?" He spoke.

Chaeryeong lets out a huff and moves to sit beside him. "You happy now?"

"After choosing we need to recruit them for each of their subject expertise, we have to run seminars and meetings too." Chaeryeong nods slightly, not exactly liking the idea of having to spend more time with Taehyun than necessary, but knows there is no use in complaining.

Chaeryeong reads the names on the paper, and slightly nods at them. "Looks okay I guess?"

After a few moments, she notices something about the list. "Hold on, how come you aren't listed on the list?" She asks, looking at him with a questioning look.

"My chemistry grades aren't that good last year." He sighed. "I'm much better with mathematics so I wanted to tutor for math however the board refused and wanted me to balance all my grades." He explained.

"I'm sorry if this sounds rude.. but how do you manage to get low grades when you're literally the class president of the class with the smartest students in the whole school?" Chaeryeong asked with a slightly judgemental tone.

"It's not that bad really. It's still technically a pass and my overall grade is good. I think the Chem teacher hates me to guts or something." Taehyun's eyes burrows in frustration.

Chaeryeong slightly raised her brows with amusement. "So you're saying you're not always Mr. Perfect in every subject?" Taehyun rolled his eyes at his statement.

"What? I'm not wrong am I?" Chaeryeong says with a slight smirk, enjoying the fact that she has gotten under his skin.

"Can we focus on the task at hand?" He retorts focusing back on the paper.

"You don't like being teased that much, huh?" Chaeryeong teases but listens to him and tries to stay more focused on the task.

"I'll focus on improving my Chem grade expect me as a math tutor next semester." Chaeryeong nods, somewhat impressed by his determination to improve in the subject. Though she doesn't want to admit, Taehyun's persistence in working out his problems is admirable, even if he is annoying.
