The last time Beomgyu went to school, was on that day he had overslept. Even though Beomgyu didn't oversleep actually.

See, a couple of days ago, he and his father had a little fight. Hoomin thought Beomgyu wouldn't study enough, and Beomgyu said the contrary.

Since then, Beomgyu wasn't allowed to leave the house at all. The father had established some new rules for his son, that should be apparently effective. He forced Beomgyu to wear an electronic bracelet, that would send every half hour the location to Hoomin's phone. An evil thought.

Beomgyu was only allowed to head to school for exams. Hoomin had called the teachers to get informed whenever his son would hold exams, just in case he would lie to him. The rest of the lessons were seen as a "distraction" because Beomgyu was apparently too stupid to understand that stuff anyway in his father's eyes. For Beomgyu, studying at home was horrific at this point.

As long as Beomgyu lived there, it wasn't worth it to go against his father's rules. So 'give up and stick with it' was his motto.

Then how did Beomgyu come to school last week and today, you might ask?


The brown-haired boy woke up not too early today. The covers fell from his body as he sat up and stretched his arms a little.

The metallic bracelet around his wrist itched a lot, so the skin there was quite reddened. Looking down at it, Beomgyu sighed out loud, as he reminded himself how much he hated his family.

Anyways it was a new day and a Monday as well, so Beomgyu had a new mission: going to school.

He wanted to see his friends again and get away from home badly. Never would he have thought that school might have been a safer place than home.

Beomgyu walked over to his desk, where his phone was plugged in. A few messages blended in his notifications, but he firstly wanted to text someone else first.


You:

Hi, could you change the location again today, from 9:00 to 10:00 AM?


There was overseas an Italian hacker he knew for many years, and when this new problem around his wrist popped up, this online friend came in to help.

He had no idea how this person knew about that software, but apparently, it had worked so far.

A buzz on his phone notified Beomgyu of the quick reply.


Lorenzo:

Certo :)

(sure)


Beomgyu grabbed his bag and stuffed his school supplies. He had an English exam today, and his father knew that of course. But his dad didn't know he wanted to get earlier to school because of the group project in history class.

So after quickly putting random clothes on and brushing his teeth quickly, he silently headed downstairs.

He could hear his dad in his studio, holding a meeting online. Time to go.

Good thing they didn't own a dog, or his mission would have failed quickly. Running to the bus stop, Beomgyu glanced at the time. "Shit, 10 minutes left" he hissed and put the phone back in his pocket. That meant he would have to skip breakfast for today. Maybe lunch too, as long his dad wouldn't find out about his absence at home.
