"You think I accept this kind of behaviour in this school?"

Kino had his head bowed with his hands folded in front of his body. He didn't like being told off by his teachers, and especially the principal.

"I'm sorry" he says softly, still allowing the teacher to lay into him.

"I do not condone that kind of behaviour"

"I'm sorry" Kino says again, bowing his head a little more.

The teacher turned her head to Wooseok who seemed to just be standing there, staring at the wall ahead. "Do you not have anything to add or apologise for?"

"No. He started it" he shrugged simply.

Kino snaps his head towards him and starts glaring daggers in his direction. He couldn't argue here, not in front of the principal.

"I don't care who started it" she said, leaning back in her chair whilst eyeing Wooseok up and down. She thought that this particular student would end up in her office sooner or later. It was sooner than she thought. "You're both in trouble, and you both will have to be punished the same way. I do not tolerate violence in this school. Kino you know this"

"I'm sorry" he says once more, head back to its bowing position.

"You're both to clean the classroom afterhours every day for a week. And I want you to also sort out the storage cupboard where we keep the things for gym class".

"A week?" Wooseok repeats.

"A week" she confirms with a firm nod.

"And..I have to do it with him?" Kino asks, pointing to Wooseok on his left as if he couldn't believe the words that were leaving her mouth. Surely not, right?

"Yes, with Wooseok. Maybe this will teach you to respect each other or at least get along to some extent".

"Please can we-..."

"You may not". The principal raises her neatly manicured hand up to stop Kino from talking and turns back to her computer. "But you may leave. And you will start as off tomorrow. Off you go"

Kino licks over his dry lips and exhales a heavy breath. Fuck.

Wooseok ends up rolling his eyes at this idea as well. He couldn't imagine anything worse. He's the first to leave the room, not wanting to think about the time he'll have to waste on cleaning a room with KINO of all people.

Kino follows him out, and calls out to him before the other disappears. "Hey. You better show up. I swear if you don't..."

"You'll what" Wooseok says, not even bothering to turn around.

"I'll tell the principal and you'll be in more shit".

"I'll be there, stop getting your panties in a twist".

The next day when class ended, Mr.Lee knew that Wooseok and Kino were told to stay behind to clean so reminded them that they needed to behave and where everything was that they might need. A bucket. The broom. Stuff like that.

Kino rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and looked around the room to think of where to start. "How about we sort out that gym cupboard first. I feel like that'll take the most time" he suggests.

Wooseok who had remained in his seat that whole time, pushed his chair back and placed his feet on top of the desk. "Yeah sure, but you can do it all".

Kino walks up to him in an instant, his finger waving and wagging in his face. "You are not getting away with doing nothing here. I will tell on you. Seriously, just get off your ass and help. I'm even going to give you the easy jobs because I don't trust you to do a good job anyway".
