"Today is easier than I imagined the class to be. I thought the first day would buzz me up with stress already," Yuna murmured as she tried to rest her head on the table and stop herself from yawning.
"You're already tired, Yuna?" Chaeryeong questioned, running her hand through Yuna's hair and stroking the woman's scalp, causing Yuna to relax even more in her pose.
"I think I have to sleep because the weather is so nice," Yuna muttered. "I'd like to go home and sleep in my bed."
"You have more classes to go," Ryujin murmured, pinching Yuna in the cheek to keep her awake.
"I wish summer would come sooner!" Yuna grumbled as she forced herself to get up with a pout, making Chaeryeong and Ryujin laugh at their youngest's sweet gesture.
"I've been hearing from a lot of people today about this virus spreading today due to the weather, so I was worried one of us would get it, unnie." Yuna added as she began opening her food while talking to the girls who were staring at her blankly.
"Sickness?"
"Mono. That's what it's called. I'm not sure what it is, but a lot of people have been catching it, and it's contagious," Yuna explained as she chewed into a piece of food she had at the time. "My seatmate got it after making out with her boyfriend, who had it," she explained.
Chaeryeong and Ryujin exchanged glances and knew exactly what each other would say, so they burst out laughing, leaving Yuna puzzled.
"Hey, I'm serious," Yuna complained, hitting the two girls on the shoulders, causing the two to flinch in agony.
"Is this mono thing even dangerous?" Chaeryeong asked, attempting to hold back her laughter so she could pay attention to Yuna again.
"I'm not sure, but I don't want to catch it," Yuna said, crossing her arms across her chest. "That's why I need to be cautious. No hugs and kisses for now because we need to make sure none of us catch the virus."
"That's not fair!" Chaeryeong protested.
This time, Ryujin had to suppress her laughter as she gazed at Chaeryeong, giving the woman a silly grin while Chaeryeong looked alarmed and dismayed.
The woman began making fun of her best friend and offered Yuna a nod of agreement, which irritated Chaeryeong even more.
Ryujin had finally finished her last class schedule for the day after 4 hours. She was content for the entire day today, but she knew she wouldn't let the day close without seeing the one person she wanted to end the day speaking with that day, but Ryujin hadn't seen Yeji that day yet, so she wondered where Yeji could be.
She had just contacted Yeji, and they had spent about 2 hours on the phone before going to bed, and before Ryujin could even say goodbye to the woman, she could already hear Yeji snoring in her slumber through the call, which Ryujin found both hilarious and cute.
She hoped to spend at least some time with Yeji today, but she hadn't seen the woman.
That afternoon, Ryujin met one of her junior friends, Choi Yunjin or Jinni. She and Jinni had managed to exchange a lot of conversation as they usually have before one main question was actually brought up by Ryujin.
Jinni is Yeji's cousin.
"I was really worried about Yeji unnie these days. It's been the second day of school and yet I haven't seen her around. I haven't spoken to her since yesterday, so I thought she was upset with me or something..." Ryujin sulked, showing a pout and a bitter expression, which Jinni actually found cute because she had never seen Ryujin have such an adorable reaction, with Yeji being the reason.
