31 : Carbonated Water

• Park Jiyeong •

Like every other day, the first thing I did when I wake up was furrow my brows and mumble to myself,

"I feel like something bad is gonna happen."

... And that was exactly what happened :)

I was placing my bag in my locker when someone lightly pushed me.

"Yo, Yeongie!"

I turned around, and a smile immediately formed on my lips.

"Hey, Yang."

"Did you hear?" He raised a brow. "A new student is coming here."

"Another one?" I raised a brow.

"She's not exactly new, though..." Jeno, Jaemin, and Renjun walked up to us.

"She's not?" I raised a brow. "You mean, she was a student here before?"

"Yeah." Jaemin nodded.

"Who?"

"Find out yourself."

I glared at Renjun, making him shrug in response.

"What're we missing out on?" Donghyuck and Shotaro walked up to us.

"Someone's moving back here..." I furrowed my brows. "But who...?"

"It's me." The familiar voice made me flinch. "Did you guys miss me?"

We turned around to find a very familiar girl, standing a bit far behind us. My jaw immediately clenched at the sight of her face and unmistakable black hair with blue tips.

Not this bitch again...

Sonoda An.

"Nao! You're back!" Jeno ran and attacked her with a hug.

"Nao!" Jaemin ran and hugged her as well, followed by Renjun and Donghyuck, leaving me, Yangyang, and Shotaro behind.

"Uh... Who's that?" Shotaro glanced at us.

"Sonoda An. People call her An, Nao, or occasionally Soda. A Japanese student who moved some time ago. Jeno and Jaemin's childhood friend too..." I answered. "I didn't thought she would be back..."

"Do you guys hate her or something?" Shotaro asked again.

"She's in our friend group. Well, used to be." Yangyang replied. "She got into an incident with Yeongie and left the group voluntarily."

"Ah... I see..." Shotaro nodded. "Uh... I-if you guys don't mind me asking, what exactly was the incident?"

"We don't know." Yangyang glanced at the Japanese male. "They never told us."

Shotaro only nodded silently while An and the other guys approached us.

"Oh, hey, Liu Yangyang!" She smiled, greeting Yangyang with a smile.

"Hey!" Yangyang smiled back. An then glanced at Shotaro.

"Oh? I'm sorry, you are...?"

"Uh, Osaki Shotaro." Shotaro smiled, doing a small bow. "I transfered here from Japan."

"Ah, I see." An nodded. "Uh, where were you born in, specifically?"

"Kanagawa, Japan."

"No way! This is so cool!" An's smile became wider. She then let out her hand for him to shake. "Sonoda An. From now on, we're Kanagawa buddies."

"Wait, you're from Kanagawa too?!"

"Yes, I am!"

I rolled my eyes while everyone seemed to be having a good time.
