Yongsun was so engrossed in the book that she forgot to notice the time. A ding on her phone drifted her attention from the book and found hyejin's text message asking where she is. Their next class is about to begin and she's still outside, reading a book. Realizing she fucked up, yongsun jolted from her seat and instantly rushed to get into her class.

As she was about to turn left and enter the corridor, someone call her name making her stop running.

"Ms. Kim!"


Yongsun was in a complete halt as she turn her head to the person who called her name. She had a hard time finding the person at first since her hair was all over her face due to running, but when she took a glimpse of someone, standing meters from her and holding a bunch of files she didn't want to know what, she inwardly curse herself.

"Yes?"

"Are you aware that running in the corridor during class hours is prohibited?"

A double curse came out of Yongsun's mouth, but she said it so quietly that the woman didn't notice. How could she have forgotten how strict the rules are at this university? And how fortunate she was to be caught by the vice president, Moonbyul. She's still upset with her for being Eric's girlfriend, but she can't deny it's her fault for running around the corridor like a horse.


"I apologized. I'm just late for class. I didn't notice the time since I was reading a book. This won't happen again."

She slightly lowers her head, hoping moonbyul will let her go this time. However, as she stated, this school has strict rules. She doesn't have a way out of this mess.

"Sorry won't change anything. You're in detention. Meet me at the library later. Some works are needed to be done and we run out of people."

Yongsun was not in the mood on her way to the library. Moonbyul had already been given her 1-hour detention and when she arrived at her class, their instructor gave her another 1-hour detention for being late. Now she has to spend in that library for two hours, working loads she shouldn't be doing.

"I hate this day."

It was 5 in the afternoon and students are already in their respective homes, resting like a slug. Even hyejin and wheein have already gone home and here she is, walking to the place she considers the pit of doom. She hated how she can't go home directly because of this stupid detention. But she's not blaming anyone anyway. She's blaming herself.

Yongsun entered the library and immediately notice a figure standing in the corner. She was getting books from that huge box on the floor and filing them into the table in order. She was so busy with what she was doing that she failed to notice someone was already standing beside her. Yongsun hastily cleared her throat for her presence to be known.

Moonbyul stops and slightly glances at the newcomer, before continuing what she's doing.


"You're late." Says moonbyul sternly and yongsun could only smile apologetically.

"I'm sorry. The class ended late so I came late."

The woman only nods in acknowledgement before sauntering towards the deep corner of the room. Yongsun wasn't sure what to do so she followed moonbyul to where she was going. They stop on an empty shelf with more books on the floor and yongsun couldn't even more tired just imagining the work they needed to be done.

"A lot of books were donated by other schools so we need to stack them up and put them on their proper shelves. Start with that books over there and put them on that shelves on the left."
