Yoon Joon got up on that school day very early and in high spirit. Today was his first day at SNU, today his life was going to change.
He rushed out of the house in his new car and raced to So-ri's, jumped out and hit the doorbell with vigor.

Uncle choi's chin quivered in anger as his doorbell went off again. So early in the morning? Ha! It was enough that Dae won had woken him from his beauty sleep too early because he wanted to whisk So-ri off to school early so they could revise more before the tests begin, but anymore than that was looking for trouble.
So he marched towards his front door like a General going to war and yanked the door open with a red face.
"Who is it?." He bellowed. Well..let's just say a drill officer would have been proud.

A chill went down Yoon Joon's spine at Uncle Choi's bellow.
"Uncle Choi, it's me." He answered with a nervous grin.
"Yoon Joon? What brings you to my house at this hour?."
"I was hoping I could get to drive So-ri to school, is she ready yet?."
"Why would you do that?."
"I just recently got transferred to SNU. So you know.."
"Know what? Explain yourself kid."
"Seeing as we're going to the same school, I decided it wouldn't be a bad idea to give her a lift every morning."
"A lift in what?."
Yoon Joon moved out of Choi's line of view and pointed at his new car.
"Sleek ride."
"Thank you!."
"Well, you can't give so-ri a lift to school, that's because she's already there, Dae won sees to that every morning, so don't bother with that. But guess what? You can make yourself useful by driving the twins to school. You wouldn't mind would you?."
Of course Yoon Joon couldn't refuse, because it wasn't a request..

So-ri stepped out of her last test with a grateful sigh, thank God she was done with today.
She walked thoughtfully to the library to find it almost empty with Dae won waiting for her at a table.
"Hi.." She greeted as she reached him and lowered her tired torso into the chair opposite him.
"Ah So-riya, how did the tests go?."
"I think I nailed it, I'm not really sure about, we'll have to wait for the results to see. Where are the other guys?."
"They still have a couple of more tests."
"Lucky us that we're done for the day eh? Let's start revising for tomorrow's." She said, pulling books out of her bag.
"Can't we revise at home? Do we have to do it here? We could Skype, like last night."
"Ha! Perish the thought, I'm not skyping with you again."
"Why not?."
"You know why, you kept staring at me!."
"Of course I did, that's what Skyping is all about staring at other people."
"You think it's funny? Well it's not."
"What isn't funny?." A voice intruded into the conversation, the duo looked up and were rewarded with an eyeful of Yoon Joon.
