"I'm here.." Taeyeon said and then put the paper on the desk.
,,Great, we should just wait for Jessica to come back from the toilet." Benjamin replied. ,,Taeyeon, what does your parents work though?"he asked.
Tayeon and Lee Soo Man freezed their smiles. Then Jessica came into the room. She saw their unique look but just sat back at her chair.
,,Taeyeon?" Benjamin repeated.
"My parents? They are business workers." Taeyeon replied.
,,What type of business do they have?" Benjamin continued.
Taeyeon thought for a second, but then the principal replied:
"They are managers..as well... but they aren't working with musical management like you..they..they"
"They are financial managers." Taeyeon replied.
Jessica thought that Taeyeon's behavior was strange. But suddenly, she took that as an opportunity for her revenge on the girl.
"Financial managers, you say?"She asked.
"Yes..why?"
,,From how long?"
"About ten years already." Taeyeon replied. She knew what Jessica was trying to do.
"So.. which organization are they taking care of?" Jessica smirked.
Taeyeon panicked a little, but just in time, the principal said:
"For our school of course!"
Jessica hummed. The principal handed her the paper with the free activities.
"Why don't you try basketball?"Benjamin said.
"No chance." Jessica raised her tone but then realized that they weren't alone.
"Mhm..I mean..I will break my nails you know?With that heavy ball."
"Miss Sooyeon is scared of breaking her precious nails."Taeyeon said and giggled.
"Basketball is just perfect for her. The sport is for giraffes, and she is one for sure - height and looks of an animal, got everything." Taeyeon laughed.
"Kim Taeyeon, know your place."The principal replied. Jessica was really thankful at that moment because she was ready to drop the ,,perfect" image mask.
"What about cricket?"Benjamin asked.
,,EVEN WORSE!" Jessica screamed. ,,UHG...uhg..I mean..I don't like running, I hate running."
"I hate running."Taeyeon mocked her again . "As an idol, exercising is really important. Hate or not, you need to move more, or when you go on stage, you will crack like an old lady. "
"Can you shut up for once?"The principal replied to her comment.
"No, she is right. Our Jessica knows that she has to move more, so Sica, let's keep the cricket in mind. "
Jessica looked at Taeyeon with a look, saying "If you don't close your mouth I will close it for you " and Taeyeon answered with her look, which said "Make me to".
,,What about swimming?"
"No, the team is full.''Taeyeon immediately said.
"Full,since when?'' The principal asked.
"Well, since April, but Jessica didn't even accept the request"
"I like swimming and I would like to take part in this" Jessica replied.
"Taeyeon, can you try to find a place for her?You're the team leader, so I think that you can do something."the principal asked.
Taeyeon thought for a moment. She scratched her head and then smiled.
"Swimming is also a really good sport for staying fit." Taeyeon replied.
"So you will do something about it?"Benjamin asked.
"Yes, I will manage to do something. If that's the final choice of Jessica."
"Are you for real?"Jessica replied. She was shocked by Taeyeon's sudden change in the mood.
"Of course!"she faked smiled.
Jessica's pov:
"Of course!"she smiled.
Well, it was kind of her. No, maybe she did it only because the principal already warned her to act nicer. Yes, probably. But I didn't manage to take my revenge again. I don't want to go swimming. I don't like swimming as well. In other words, I hate all kinds of sports. But when she reacted that way, I wanted to shut her mouth finally. If we are in the same team, it would be harder for her to act bad,right? Because her trainer won't let her do it. That's how it works.
But again, suddenly, my plan was destroyed when she accepted so easily.Whatever it had made her change her mind, was doubtful.
The principal and Benjamin continued talking about other things like my schedule, future concerts, and so on.
Time passed slower, the air was becoming hotter and their voice were more annoying.
,,Sir Lee Soo Man, Soon I will have to go soon, so while you're talking can I do my real job finally?"Taeyeon asked with an annoyed tone.
,,Oh, it would be better if you do it now, you're right. Sorry for waisting your time."he answered and then turned to me. "Tayeon, today came so she can give you a tour of the school. She will show you around so you don't lose yourself in the building tomorrow."he giggled.
,,Oh..um..really kind, thank you, Taeyeon-sunbaniem!"I bowed to her.
"They paid me to do it, don't misunderstand me."
"I didn't think of something different, you look like a person who wouldn't do anything for anyone if they don't get paid" I bited back, finally.
"JESSICA!"Benjamin screamed. I messed up a little, but it was impossible to stand still.
"No, it is not Jessica's fault." Mr Lee Soo Man said. "I will have a really long conversation with Taeyeon and her parents about her behavior."he continued. Taeyeon's eyes opened widely. Hah...eat that. I looked at her with my look of a winner, and she didn't even try to react. She was staying there, looking in my eyes with a different look. Look, that was saying ,,I messed up. "
YES, YOU MESSED UP....you did. The principal started scolding her, and suddenly she just replied:
,,Keep it for later...I have to go soon so let me do my job"
She went out of the door. I bowed and left as well.
"Finally someone put you in your place, midget." I said with a smile.
,,This floor is called ^The boring place^. There aren't any classrooms. It is the teachers' floor. On the left you can see the first teachers' room. Just next to the principal." she said and then started walking.
"Avoiding me now,huh?"I smirked.
She continued walking and turned her head to the window.
"This is the small yard. Usually, students from the eighth,nineth, and tenth grade play in there. Our yard can be seen from the other side of the building."
"Are your parents from the strict ones?"I asked.
She started walking up the stairs.
"Yah, what about the other rooms?"
,,No need, there are only closets, offices and toilets. It is really the most boring floor in here."
,,You're walking too fast!"
,,See - cricket was going to be useful sport" she hummed.
,,Oh, acting nice now?Your parents must be really scary." I smirked.
She turned towards me.
,,I would appreciate it if you shut up and listen to me."
I didn't fight back because there was something going up with her. I just put up with her self-esteem being lowered.
"Oh, Taeyeon-ah!" someone screamed. When I turned myself, I saw a tall,tanned girl and a blonde shorty waving at her.
I turned my head to see her reaction, and her eyes suddenly changed. This time, they were full of love, caring, and happiness.
,,Yuri-shi, Hyoyeon-shi, why are yall still here?"She yelled because the girls were kind of far.
,,To help you with the tour to the celebrity." Hyoyeon smiled to me.
Well, I was some sort of thankful. If I and the midget stayed together for too long, we were going to fight over something again for sure. I bowed to both girls.
"No need" Yuri replied"Bowing only when winning, right Tayeon-ah?""She asked.
"I like your mood."she replied. "Because you're here, I'm going." she continued.
"What do you mean ^going^?" I asked, but without feeling it, I inadvertently used English.
"Ms Worldwide?" Taeyeon replied while smirking. "No need to be extra." she continued.
"It wasn't on purpose." I answered while rolling my eyes.."What do you mean going?You said that they're paying you - you have to do your job."
The other two girls laughed.
,,Paying next time. I accepted only because I didn't think it was going to be you. They didn't tell me who I was going to help. As they say, always be ready for the unexpected."she replied.
"Well, they are some sort of paying her but not with money."Hyo said.
"Okay, I'm going now." Taeyeon repeated again.
"I'm letting you only because Mr Kim is waiting for you from two hours outside. The poor man, your parents don't pay him enough." she joked.
"Oh, Taeyeon-ah - Mr Kim said that your parents will - OUCH!"
Taeyeon suddenly slapped Yuri's hand.
Yuri and Hyo suddenly realized that they weren't alone and did a fast bow.
