"trust no one but your circle."
it didn't sound like a good idea for six young, not-so-experienced high schoolers to take up a dangerous, life-costing and major mission.
In the evening, the girls played rock paper scissors to determine who would be the one to pick up dinner. Seeun lost, so she went out to get some dinner.
Seeun went out of the restaurant with the takeaway food. As she was walking, she felt that a man was following her, so she looked around and saw a boy around her age walking. She took a deep breath, hoping the boy would understand her motive. She skipped towards the boy and linked arms with him. He nearly gave a loud yelp, but Seeun covered his mouth.
"Shh. Can you help me? Someone is following me," Seeun said. The boy nodded. They walked together, hands entwined, and only let go when they reached her apartment. Seeun looked up to take a look at the boy.
"Thanks for just now. You helped me," Seeun said, not noticing that his eyes were wide when he saw her face.
"You're welcome. Anyway, you gotta be careful when walking," the boy said.
"You are...?"
"Jeon Wonwoo."
"Thank you so much, Jeon Wonwoo." He nodded. They bid goodbyes before she took the elevator to the 34th floor and entered the apartment. When she closed the apartment door, she sighed. Isa looked at her.
"You okay?"
"Probably not." Seeun then explained what had happened to her.
"Really? Thank goodness you came back safe," Isa said. "Now, let's have dinner before going to the pool." After dinner, Isa and Sumin were the only ones packing for the others and themselves since the rest were still changing into their swimsuits, Yeeun excitedly jumping around. They were wearing their robes over their swimsuits.
"Extra towels?"
"Check."
"Snacks and drinks?"
"Check."
"Phones and speaker?"
"Check."
"Alright. Girls, are you ready?" Isa shouted. The girls went out of their room and out of their apartment. They entered the lift and pressed "40". Level 40 was just ten levels below the roof and made up most of that level's space. There were a few apartments, but not as many as on other levels. The lift reached level 40, and they went out. Today, the infinity pool was empty because they came in the evening. The pool was just like the apartments, modern and beautiful. Pool cabanas were lined along. Looking up from the edge of the pool, you could see that terraces were like bridges, connecting from one block to another.

The girls took off their robes and entered the pool. The water's temperature was comfortable— warm enough for swimming. Isa and Sieun did some laps around the pool while Yoon, Seeun and Yeeun stayed in the pool, enjoying the water. Yeeun started splashing water at Yoon, causing a water fight. Sumin went out and took out the speaker from the tote bag and played some music to vibe to.
"Hey, Yoon, let's race," Yeeun said. Yoon nodded. Yoon signalled to get ready, and when they started, they swam fast to the other side of the pool. Somehow, they finished at the same time. They started again, and still, they finished at the same time. Looking at each other, they bursted into laughter. After that, they swam around the pool.
After a while, the girls got up from the pool to dry themselves. They picked up their stuff and went into the lift lobby.
Isa, taking out her phone to reply to Aisha's message, said. "Oh yeah, Aisha might be coming to our house tomorrow. She just texted me. Isa said, typing on her phone while sipping on coke. The lift doors opened, and they entered the lift.
Another lift door opened, and Jeongwoo, with the boys, exited the lift and headed to the pool. Haruto's eyes met Isa's, and he gave her a sheepish smile.
She just walked past him.
"Don't be surprised to see her react like this after you bullied her for one year," Yeeun told the boy and went into the lift.
