The Unexpected

Seul-gi: 16

I went to our class earlier than I should. I saw one of my teachers pass by, like he's in a rush. I called his name, but he was walking too fast. I started following him because I really need to pass an activity. It's due today.

I followed him until he was behind the building. But before I could go any furthur, I heard him talk to a girl. I tried looking at them, and I only saw the girl's face. She's... crying. What's happening? Should I... No, Seul-gi. This is none of your business.

I just walked away from them. I'll pass this later, then. That sight made me feel uncomfortable. But maybe she was crying because she failed in his subject, right? That should be it! Nothing more to it. I'm just overthinking things. Ever since I found out about Kris and Ms. Song, not that it matters now, but I've been thinking about the other possibilities.

I received a text from Sehun. He says he wants me to meet his friends. Does he even have other friends aside from Edison? Or is he talking about him? I just laughed at the thought. He even texted me where, what to wear and what time he'll pick me up. How can I say no to that?

He told me to wear a dress. Something nice, but not too short. I chose a pastel yellow dress and paired it with white flats. I just brought a small bag with me. I only need my phone, keys and wallet. I told Irene I won't be having dinner at home, and she just nodded.

I saw Sehun's car outside, and he came out. He looked good, though it wasn't really the suit-and-tie combo, but he looked classy in his silky grey polo, black slacks and black shoes. His hair brushed up, and he looks absolutely stunning.

"Let's go?" He said and opened the door for me. I went inside and he ran towards the driver's seat.

The whole drive was quiet. I'm not really sure why, but it feels right. We both feel comfortable with just this. I looked at the restaurant. I've never been here, but I think the food here are French or Italian. I'm not really sure.

We went inside, and he said something to the waiter. The waiter then guided us to a room Sehun rented. I looked at the setting, and it looked nice. It has a warm vibe to it. And I think they'll be serving us pasta. I hope so, because I've been craving for pasta.

"They'll be here shortly." He said.

I couldn't hold it any longer. "Do you even have other friends aside from Edison?"

I saw his eyes widen. "How did you know Edison?"

I pretended to think. "He's my cousin's friend. How could I not know him?"

"Which cousin?"

"Kris."

"Kris is your cousin?" He blurted out.

I laughed. "Yeah, why?"

"All this time, I thought he was flirting with you!" He said and frowned. "But why didn't you know me?"
