Chapter Five: The Group Project

The end of this semester was soon. My anxieties were high. If I didn't pass then I couldn't continue with my major.

I shuffled with my bag while I was walking in the halls to the next class. I ran into someone. "Oof." I felt the bump on my head. I looked up to see it was Winwin, with a smile on his face. "Oh, Sorry. I wasn't paying attention." I scratched my head. "That's okay." He smiled. "Would you like to walk to class together?" He asked. He moved beside me so I could continue to walk. "Sure," I said softly. All I could do is look down, with a smile on my face. We arrived at class. It was Arts and Design. We sat in the rows of seats. We got our bags and textbooks outright as the teacher came out. "Good morning." She said as she put her things on the desk area. "Open your textbooks." We preceded to do so as she said: "I want to assign you for a group project. I will assign certain classmates with each other and you will work on a Design for a company you think will make good business. Doesn't matter what subject, just make sure it's an original idea and you get all the right information. I will name the groups at the end of class." What she said really sparked me. I haven't really done group projects or whatnot. But, I had an exciting feeling in my stomach. I looked over at WinWin. "I can't wait." I whispered. He nodded at me then whispered: "hopefully we'll be on the same team."
After the class had ended, I gathered my things in my bag as the Teacher gave out the team members. She went to say team one first. Neither I or Winwin was called out. She then called out team two and three but we weren't on it either. "Team four, Mark, ChungHa, WinWin, Taeil, and.. Y/N." She read. "Yes!" I said under my breath while looking at WinWin. He just made a grin at me. She called out the rest of the teams. "The deadline is July 3rd. so make sure to gather with your group often. I want to see all team members have their own part and PLAY it." She emphasized. "You may dismiss." She gathered her things as everyone stood up and started to leave. "I'm excited," I said to WinWin as I grabbed my bag. "Me too." Mark and two others walked up to us. "So we a team?" Mark tucked his hands in his pockets. "Yeah." WinWin nodded. A girl bowed to us. "She's so pretty." I thought. She had long, straight brown hair, dark eyes, and fair skin. Her jawline seemed perfect. "I'm ChungHa." She smiled. "Hi." I bowed back. "I'm Y/N." The other person next to her looked a bit small. He waved to us. "My name is Taeil." He said softly with a small smile. "Who should be our team leader?" Mark said as we made our way out of the classroom. We all went silent. "I think Y/N should do it." WinWin put his hands in his pockets. I looked over at him. "N-no! I can't." I scratched my head nervously. "I think you should." Mark playfully hit WinWin's shoulder. "No.. I don't think I can. I think you should WinWin, you're a really good leader and know a lot about this school and have a lot of knowledge of art..." I shuffled my feet. WinWin looked at me with a slight smile. "Let's do a vote at lunch!!" Mark raised his hand. We all agreed to it.

Time Skip

It was lunchtime. I was getting my food up at the cafeteria counter. I grabbed my tray and got some food on my plate. Somebody slide their arm around my shoulder. I looked over to see it was Yuna. "Hey!" She said with a big smile. "Hey!!" I said back. "I heard the Arts and Design class is doing a group project!" She never stopped smiling. "Yeah! It's going to be great." I nodded. "Who are your group members? Is WinWin in it?" She wiggled her eyebrows. I rolled my eyes and smiled. "Yes. Also, Mark, Taeil, and ChungHa." "ChungHa? The queen of the school?? Ah." Yuna sighed. "'Queen?'" As I said that someone came up behind me and I turned around. It was ChungHa. "We are meeting at the table if you want to know where it is." She made a soft smile and pointed behind herself. I told Yuna bye as I followed ChungHa. I sat at the table next to Mark, across from WinWin, ChungHa, and Taeil. "So, let's all vote who the team leader should be." Mark leaned his arm on the table. "I vote Y/N! No offense WinWin bro." He shrugged at WinWin. WinWin glared at him. "I vote Y/N too," WinWin said softly. "I vote WinWin," ChungHa said. "I second that!" I immediately said. "Okay, so the tiebreaker is up to...." we all looked at Taeil. "Uhhhh-" he started to get flustered. He kept looking at WinWin and I. right, left, right, left. He slammed his head on the table. "Both." He quietly said. "That's not an answer," Mark said with a serious tone. Taeil didn't say anything. He just face planted on the table and made anxiety moans. "We'll just use an app!" Mark raised his hand and got out his phone. "Is that fair?" WinWin raised his eyebrow. "Of course. This'll decide Taeil's vote." Mark shrugged 'Cooly' he typed in our names on an app. It would randomly pick a name. It was calculating the results. WinWin and I were on the edges of our seats. Just staring at Mark's phone. "The team leader is...." it showed up on the screen. "WinWin!" Mark gasped. "Oh come on. Not fair." Mark whined. I felt a feeling of relief. But WinWin had a tight smile on his face. I suddenly felt bad. "Are you okay with doing it?" I leaned in. "Yeah." WinWin took a bite of his food. As I talked to him, I saw ChungHa glare at us slightly. I shrugged. "Are you sure? I don't want you to be stressed, so I could do it." I scratched my head. "It's really okay. I like being a leader." WinWin looked up and made an eye smile. I smiled back. We finished our food
