JUST ONE MORE DAY... (H.S)

4

Is he good?

Will he be able to draw me?

Is it the guy Ben was talking about?

He's British!

What if he doesn't like to be my partner?

He just joined, I hope he doesn't feel too much worked up with this schedule and the test in two weeks.

"Hey, stop with that overthinking", Jennie shaking me out from my thoughts.

"You got the Harry guy, he's good don't worry", Ben says hugging me sideways.

"Ya, okay. But why hasn't he come today?", I ask him.

"It's starts from Monday for all the EP students", Jennie says. Putting her hands on my shoulders.

"You are getting worried over nothing, it's just a partner, and who knows after you meet and talk to him he might be your roommate too. Then practicing for portraits is easy, you can do it at home", she says smiling and holding my shoulders tight, as if giving me strength to stop over thinking.

"Ya, okay, nothing to worry about", I say smiling at both of them.

"Today, you don't have to do anything, just get a bit close with your partner, having small talks. So that when your drawing them, it doesn't have me to be awkward", Miss Marie tells us smiling and sits down on her chair.

I sigh deeply and rub my hands placing them on my face. Heating my face a bit, letting go all my thoughts. Jennie rubs my shoulders. Both of them smiling at me after I take off my hands from my face.

"Hey, why don't we just go out. There is nothing else to do here. We can meet the Harry guy. And you can talk about this, and about the house also. What do you say?", Ben says.

I give him a look that says how are we going out when we are here. He smiles and goes to Miss Marie. We couldn't hear what he's talking with her, but we could see that they are smiling and she pinches his cheeks and let him go. He comes back rubbing his cheeks.

"Should I be worried that you are flirting with Miss Marie?", Jennie asks him, folding her arms.

"Darling!!!, you don't have to be. She's over 60 years. And to be honest I would look like her grandchild. Gwaenchanh-ayo! Gwaenchanh-ayo! (don't worry in Korean)", he assures her.

"So we now go?", I ask him.

"Yes, we can, I'll call Harry to meet us at the cafe", he says smiling.

We pack our things and we are off out. Ben tells us that Harry is already in the cafe. So we get in the car and drive to him. In 5 minutes we are at the cafe, and no one is there except for a guy who's wearing a black hoodie. I can't see his face, his back is facing us. Seeing that there is no on here, then that must be Harry. Ben's goes to him and he gets up, they fist bump. Such a boys thing. Me and Jennie are still facing his back.

"So, I've told you about my girlfriend, and my friend who needs a Roommate. This is them", he shows his hand out, pointing us out.

We both put on our best smiles, and ready to meet someone new. But as he turns around our smiles fall down with a sour face. His smiles turns down too, and a sudden surprise is on his face.
