Seungcheol Pov

When Jeonghan excused himself,I didn't mind at all but as the time goes by, I realized it took him way too long to go back here. What could be the problem? For sure, he would contact us if something bad happened. The lunch break would end soon and most if us were wondering where he was except for those hungry animals.

"Yah hyung, can I finish Jeonghan hyungs food? It takes him way too long to finish this Chicken Teryaki," Hoshi said looking at me. Seeing how both Hoshi and Seokmin were drooling, I just secretly face palmed before giving them a nod,besides I don't think Jeonghan would be back any minute now.

I just sighed as both of those hungry men finish Jeonghan's food in a second. I was really embarassed for them,but I have got no time for that. RINGGG~ Seems like it's time for class. "Go back to your classes, I'll just look for Jeonghan" I told the guys before standing up and heading out of the cafeteria. Is it possible that Jeonghan is with  Kath right now? I saw Kath rushing out of the cafeteria then, second after Jeonghan excused himself. That man really knows when to take his chance. Though I'm wondering why? Why would he be with Kath? Does Jeonghan still believe that Kath isn't a traitor?

Seungcheol have been searching for Jeonghan through different floors and was angry because they're late for almost half of the class! "Ugh, that little brat deserves some beating." He said, annoyed with his fist closed. He continued until he saw Jeonghan coming out of the gate that was closed for years, with a sign of danger clearly written on its gate. Seungcheol bwalked faster towards Jeonghan and because of curiosity he asked "What were you doing,Yoon Jeonghan?"

Jeonghan's Pov

"Ah, shit." I thought to myself as I saw Seungcheol in front of me with a eyebrow raised. My sweat was trickling down my neck, thinking of a way to get out of this situation. "I tripped and accidentally wnet inside of the gate." I breathed heavily because I rapped through the reason I gave Seungcheol.

"Really? What's in there?" He asked, wiggling his eyebrows. "N-nothing" I told him, it was clear he was teasing me but I don't have the time for that. Surprisingly, he stopped all those teasing and returned to his stone form wherein he had a straight face and a emotionless eyes "Well then, let's go, you're- I mean we're late for class." He said impatiently before walking towards the classroom. I looked back and closed the gate before following him quietly.

I walked towards the next class and decided to wait out there with Jeonghan. I don't have a thick face to go marching inside a classroom when I missed more than half of it. Although I have more important things to think of, "Jeonghan fix yourself,I'll be waiting here." He went to the nearest bathroom while I stayed where I was.

I know something bad happened. His reasoning was so stupid that no one was going to believe him,however I could sense he doesn't want to talk about it,so I didn't push him. Pretty sure,he would talk to me about it when he's ready.

Still, I wonder what happened? He walked out of the gate with red eyes and messy hair. It was impossible for him to be bullied,we're fucking mafias and he wouldn't easily cry too much that it made his eyes red. "What's behind the gate?" Good thing, he wasn't with Kath,I would hate it.

Jeonghan washed his face with water to get rid of the redness of his eyes. He knew Seungcheol didn't believe his lies. His buddy isn't that stupid to not notice his state earlier yet Seungcheol didn't push him to say the truth and he was simply grateful for having him as his cousin and a friend.

Meanwhile, Kath also left the garden when she looked at her phone and saw the time. She was late for her next class after lunch and sure enough she would not attend it anymore. Instead, she went to the bathroom to fix herself. Her tears, eyes, clothes and even her messy hair.

Once she was done, she smiled again. The garden was her friend she could lean on and a place where she can shout and talk her worries without being judged. It keeps her mental state standing. RINGG~ she then got her books and proceeded to go to her next class(homeroom).

She then sat down on her chair and waited for the teacher. Sooner or later her teacher arrived.

Their teacher announced that their prom was a week near. They need to prepare, the class was mixed with shouts of excitement and irritation. "I'll now give you guys the invitations for you to know its time,location and theme." Once Kath recieved her invitation she looked at it and saw that the theme is 'The Hidden Night'.

Seeing that everyone  has recieved the invitation,their facilitator then explained, "Maskara Night or the Hidden Night means you should wear a Maskara that will hide your identity. The color of the mask is stated in your invitation, The mask will be delivered to your address.Any questions?"

"Are there any other rules?" One student asked, and the teacher responded with " The basic school rules are the ones to be followed except the dress code, meaning you can wear anything you want on this night. I just hope you choose appriopriately and don't embarass  yourself, remember we still have a graduation ceremony left."

She then raised an eyebrow for the questions that the student will ask her,after a few seconds she then continued, "That's it for your homeroom,you can leave early. I already notified the guard. Also, don't go around asking the girls that will be your date to the prom or it'll just go to waste. Well, if destiny is true then, it'll lead you." Lastly, she said goodbye before she went out of the classroom.

Everyone didn't care about her last words and just smiled as they got to go home early. They packed their things before heading outside. People gathered into their own group of friends while Kath just stared.

Like every typical school, their school has groups too. They would always be with each other and not lose sight of their friends just incase another group decides to bully a member. That's why Kath was bullied without anyone knowing.

Everytime, people would turn a blind eye because she was not part of anything nor was she important to anyone in the school anymore.

At the end of the school, the groups would say goodbye to each other and some even go home together because they live near each other. Kath would hear things like "See you later!", "Tommorow again!", "Take care!" And everytime she would get jealous because tomorrow,no one would look forward to seeing her again in school unlike when Faith was here.

She just wished that Faith didn't have to go,but she wasn't selfish to stop Faith from going because someone was waiting for Faith to go home too.

As her thoughts vanished, she looked up into the setting sun with a hint of pink and blue mixing in the sky, "I'm waiting." She smiled sadly as all she can do was wait for her friend to come home.

On the other hand, a shadow was piercing her eyes at Kath walking home. "Are you ready to meet me,Kath?"
