The Road We Walk On

49 | Our Place

Juilliard School, New York

Seokhoon had finished all his lessons for the day, he was currently waiting outside near Rona's classroom. Normally, if either one of them finished ahead of the other, both of them would wait around campus either studying or being accompanied by friends. After which, Rona and Seokhoon would walk home. Today's Seokhoon's friends were not accompanying him. Seokhoon had to wait about another hour before Rona finished, so he told Seungho and George to head home first. Normally, Seungho would wish to pester Seokhoon but today after having lunch with So Hyun, Seungho was extremely happy. So he merrily headed home.

The lunch went well, Seungho thought, he really wanted to patch things up with So Hyun. He knew from indirect conversations with Rona that So Hyun saw Seungho as a silently weird character. Seungho needed to dispel that impression as soon as possible. It was not the easiest task as So Hyun ws in a completely different major than them, so often her schedule differed a lot.

Seokhoon took out his laptop and started doing his assignment as he waited for Rona. Seokhoon did not keep track of the time, he was hyper focused until someone tapped him on the shoulder. Seokhoon looked up to see it was Ryo.

Class has ended.

Yup, just, but Rona has invited me and Yoo Jung over to your place.

Our place?

Yup, for one of the units we are grouped together we three - so Rona invited us over to her place today. We are gonna spend the rest of the evening discussing the project. Since tomorrow is the weekend, we two can afford to stay out a little bit later compared to if it was a school day.

Seokhoon nodded, Rona did tell him that she had a group project for one of the modules, he just didn't know that Rona was grouped with Yoo Jung and Ryo.

What about Stephanie?

The limit in each group was 3, so Steph volunteered to go elsewhere. She said that she believes Yoo Jung and I would be more comfortable being paired up with Rona. So she is in another group.

Right then, Rona and Yoo Jung emerged from the classroom. Rona spotted Seokhoon and ran to him. Seokhoon sorry about that, Yoo Jung and I wanted to clarify a few pointers with the teacher. Have you been waiting long?

No, I managed to get some work done while waiting for you. Ryo told me they will be coming over to our place?

Yeah, even though we still have time before the final submission of the group project, we still wanted to start discussing it so I invited them over to our place since it is fairly near the campus.

432 Park Avenue, New York

Seokhoon packed up and the group headed over to Seokhoon and Rona's place. When Yoo Jung and Ryo entered the lobby of their condo, they were completely flabbergasted. The building was not only super tall, but everything in the lobby was beautiful. At a quick glance, you knew that staying here was not cheap.

They headed up to the 73th floor, and upon entering their condo. Yoo Jung kept squealing.

This is so gorgeous, I love the design and the colour scheme. It is so clean and simple, I can't believe you live here. Ryo! Check out the view, you can see the entire cityscape of New York.

Seokhoon went to the kitchen to prepare some drinks and snacks for the three of them. After seeing them come down from their excitement, the three began to talk about school. Seeing them already begin this discussion, Seokhoon left them alone. He headed to the music/study room, to work on his assignments and practice.
