Color Outside the Lines

Chapter 4: No Lines, More Lines

The next few weeks went by quickly, with nothing else changing. Yujin would give Wonyoung some mundane tasks here and there but most of the time Wonyoung focused on designing the banner for the Student council.

After Yujin's confession Wonyoung was thrilled. Only because it meant she had some type of lineage. Wonyoung definitely used this newfound information to her own advantage. She was able to test how much she could push her buttons. She had done it before but knowing that Yujin liked her meant that Wonyoung could push her limits a little more.

She could tell that Yujin enjoyed their banter and Wonyoung didn't admit it, but she enjoyed their banter, too. Honestly, Wonyoung didn't hate it when she hung out with Yujin. The girl was annoying but that's okay because Wonyoung was able to challenge her and annoy her back if she wanted to.

Just as Wonyoung was starting to get used to Yujin's presence, the day camp came and ended as quickly as it started. Unsurprisingly, Enozi High won first place for the banner, all thanks to Wonyoung.

And with that, Wonyoung's 'contract' as Yujin's assistant came to an end.

'I'm a girl of my word.' Yujin stuck out her hand for Wonyoung to shake. 'I always keep my promises. Good job, assistant. Your work here is done.'

Wonyoung was ecstatic that she never had to see the class president again.

..................

At least that's what she thought.

...................

Wonyoung sat in her free period, twiddling her fingers. She had to stop herself from automatically going to the Student Council Room and remind herself that she in fact was not part of the council anymore.

Her friend or to put more accurately her detention buddy acquaintance, was sitting opposite her. Her name was Kim Chaewon, and Kim Chaewon was growing tired of the constant tapping coming from Wonyoung's end.

'Can you cool it? I'm trying to study.' Chaewon said.

'You? Studying? I have to laugh.' Wonyoung said.

One of the reasons why Chaewon was always in detention was because she never passed her homework in. Like, ever.

Chaewon just shook her head and continued typing away at her laptop.

Wonyoung began doodling on her paper. She looked out the window and saw the softball field. She never was one for sports and school spirit, but she did find it amusing whenever someone got hit by the ball, or was body slammed by someone.

She started to draw the pitch, drawing a girl swinging the bat but missing and getting hit in the face with a ball. She giggled to herself at her imagination.

She halted her movements when she drew the number 5 and captain on the back of that person's jersey.

That does it.

Wonyoung snapped the book closed and packed up her stuff.

'Going to annoy Yujin?' Chaewon asked, not taking her eyes off of her laptop.

Wonyoung glared at Chaewon and her red plaits. 'Mind your business, knock off Annabelle.'

'At least I'm not Eunbi's baby.'

........

'Nako yah, where did you get those Choco pies from?' Yujin brushed a piece of crumb off of the girl's desk.

'Hyewon sunbaenim's been selling them these past few days.' Nako said, mouth full of the cake.

Yujin strolled over to her special drawer in the back, opening it up. Upon seeing the depleted supplies of her stash, she let out a sigh. Her suspicions were correct.
