Where's my bread-

Chapter 6: Cry-laughing

Mark POV 

"Ugh where did I keep that circular..."

"Found it!" 

The paper had the details and stuff for that NEO University Fine Art and Science Exhibition. I had to be there on Wednesday, which is tomorrow. So if I wanted to explore the neighborhood, I had to do it today. 

This place is exactly what I needed. 

3rd person POV

It was finally THE day at NEO University. Every year, the exhibition was that one time where everyone got to meet new people. The preparation usually lasts for 1 or 1.5 months. A lot of memories were made, and everyone had some part in making the project a success. 

This project was initially introduced to encourage teamwork and healthy competition among students of different departments. Over the years, it turned into a tradition that bonded everyone. 

Of course, there's always the drama, but you gotta wait for a few chapters uwu

Anywayyy, coming back to the story, everything was prepared. Just like every other year, 5 special guests were invited. This time, it was 5 alumni from the university, all who had taken different career paths but were quite popular in their respective fields. 

Preparations were done, all that had to happen was the exhibition itself. 

Jisung POV

Ugh now the halls and dance studios are crowded. Why can't they assign separate rooms for stuff like this. 

I walked around, trying to find an empty place, but there was none except the janitors' closet AND I HAVE NO BUSINESS THERE. 

Then it struck me, the roof!

I had to practice my solo for the opening event. The rooftop was usually off limits, but it wasn't a hard and fast rule or anything. I took my speaker out, and that's when something scared the daylight out of me. 

"WHAT THE HECK-"

It sounded like something was laughing, but three pitches higher. I walked to the other side, and that's when I saw another kid. I mean he probably my age but he looked smoller than me. 

He was on his phone, laughing at it. I was pretty annoyed at this point. 

"HEY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING HERE" 

He turned around, but his face was red at this point. He spoke between giggles, and tried his best not to burst into laughter again, but failed miserably. 

"Oh hi I didn't see you ther- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH"

Something was definitely wrong with this guy. 

"Um excuse me kid, I'm trying to practice my shit here, so would you mind being quite?"

He got serious real quick. 

"Excuse me I'm older than you."

I got flustered immediately, and I started blabbering an apology for being rude. 

"I'm s-sorry, hehe, I was just a little annoyed-"

"THAT'S OK MY BOI, I'm in the same year as you btw. I've seen you around a few times."

"Really? What's your major?"

"Business, yours is dance?

"Oh um, yeah!'

"Nice, NOW COME HERE" 

Without a second thought, I sat beside him. I could tell he was nice, but he was definitely annoying. And that's when he shoved his phone in my hand.

"HERE WATCH THIS"

It was a short vid, but as soon as it ended, I started cry-laughing. Whatever that was, IT WAS FUCKING HILARIOUS😭

"HJAGKSAJGH YOU UNDERSTAND MY TYPE OF HUMOR, THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LAUGHING AT FOR THE PAST 30 MINUTES"

We stood up to leave, it was almost time for our break (most people have similar schedules during the preparation/practice/performance period)

"You seem nice, what's your name?"

"Oh I'm Par- Ji- UM JISUNG PARK"

"ajgsjkgsah cute. I'm Chenle, see you around!" 

Did he just call me cute- 

AND DID HE JUST SAY HE WAS CHENLE-
