Dear You, [2kim]

6 - Dear map,

-

It was lunchtime, the busiest hour of the school. Normally Chaewon would be doing something stupid or getting herself and Yena in trouble of some kind. But today was different. She had something important to do.

"Great. They're not there."

Chaewon peaked through the gaps of the bookshelves to make sure the coast was clear. She then proceeded to reached her hands underneath the cushion that was at the corner of the library before it was stopped by a barrier made out of stacks of paper. She immediately smiled. Slowly, she pulled it out and started to read the latest page that was written in, it seems like it was written during this lunchtime, judging from the ink not being fully aware of the paper yet.

Dear you,

Today my luck guided me to a map. It was sitting inside a treasure box that I found randomly inside the Geolus forest. I tried to make sense of the map but it seems like, it's leading me a path towards the moon. Only if I even have the courage to follow it..

"Well? what's the damn wait? Follow it?"

Chaewon was slightly frustrated of how shy this protagonist is. But she couldn't really say anything judging from that note she read yesterday.

Another one of the same kind of post its were stuck up, this time it was the same kind of message, to try and stop other people who came and read this diary while is supposed to be a secret. But it's the fault on their part that they left this notebook here, right?

Chaewon wanted this story to have a good ending. The protagonist doesn't sound like a bad person, and she was sure from the good writings that the writer wasn't a bad person either.

Chaewon pulled out a small stack of post it notes that she definitely didn't stole off from the teacher's desk this morning while they weren't looking. She definitely didn't stole it for the sole purpose of trying to talk to this person she doesn't even know the name of.

"Go follow that map, go chase the moon of yours."

Chaewon whispered to the notebook before she lifts the cushion up and slides the notebook back into its original position. Now with a post it sticking out clumsily at the top of the pages.

"What are you up to these days huh?"

"Nothing in particular."

"Chaewon you're terrible at lying."

"And Yena you're terrible with getting away from trouble, just buy a hoover or something?"

"That's a good idea, I'll ask them about it."

Chaewon was gazing out the windows trying to figure things out, outside the path was Yena picking up the loose trash that fell off from the dumpster. She wouldn't have to wait for Yena if she wants, but she needed to.

"Oh, also. You know there's a fair going in a weeks time right? I was the one who suggested for it."

"And? I don't know what rich people get up to, Yena. I'll go wherever."

"No, no. I don't think I'll be free though, Yujin is forcing me to practice until my legs give up everyday.."

Yena threw the last can of soda into the plastic bag and tied it as tight as she could, each action was filled with rage, as she couldn't deny Yujin, and herself too, she doesn't want to loose another match either.

"Well good luck, I'll come cheer for you."

"More like come make fun of me.."

Chaewon moved away from the window sill, putting her hands on the metal frame Yena pushed herself up and jumps over, as both of them are now inside one of the unused room.

"Well you take these."

Yena reached into her backpack and waved two of the tickets up. It's a pre-paid pass including everything going on. Of course Chaewon wouldn't want it, why would she need one?

"Keep that shit to yourself, I'm going."

Chaewon shook her head, she isn't interested to waste some hours, going for an extended running session would have been a better idea.

Yena knew what was going on, while Chaewon was going to push the door open, she reached for Chaewon's bag, opening up the zipper and shoving the tickets in. While Chaewon notices that all her stuff is getting dumped on the ground, the trouble maker has already bolted out of the building.

"Yena you-"

Chaewon made a frustrated noise, as she picks up everything back into her bag again, wondering inside of why Yena did this.

What could she possibly know that Chaewon doesn't?
