The guard on duty in the security house, picked the telephone up when it rang. "Yeah. Hello?"

"Hello. This is Choi Minho, the boys campus house master"

The man sat up straighter, "Oh Hello, Master Minho. How may I help you?"

"Three of my students should please be permitted past the gates. Something about a missing phone"

The security man peered through the glass and at the gate. "Three male students can't be allowed in at once"

"Ah sure. Then let one in, and please tell the mistresses I gave the permission. They won't cause trouble"

"Okay sir"

"Thank you"

The elderly man dropped the telephone back, getting up, he left the security booth and opened the gates. He glanced through the students outside. He really couldn't recognise any for a bad deed. "Whose phone is missing?"

Seungmin raised his bandaged hand, "Mine"

The man glanced at the girl he was holding, "Okay. Only you can go in. The rest stay out"

Seungmin looked at Chan and Jeongin. They weren't sure if it was a good idea to let him be with Ari and Chan showed it with his eyes. "It's okay", Seungmin said, "I won't kill her", he tugged Ari forward, walking through the gates with her.

Jeongin bit his lip, glancing at his hyung. "Did that sound comforting?"

Chan removed his fingers from his mouth. So he wasn't the only one being restless about the boy's statement. "It wasn't one bit comforting but can't do nothing but wait"

Jeongin looked to the ground, breathing quicker than normal. He wished the security man won't leave them for even a second.

"Check for the phone, get it if it's there and leave", the man said to Seungmin, stopping in front of dorm 9 building.

Seungmin hummed. He trailed his eyes up to the last floor and pulled Ari into the building by her wrist. The man stared after them as they disappeared up the stairs. He was actually rethinking his decision of leaving the girl with that boy but he couldn't go into the main girls dorm and leave his post, so he did a silent prayer instead and started his walk back to the security house. This just had to happen on the day of his shift.

The dorm master will be held accountable for any trouble his student causes.

Climbing the stairs in the girl's hostel while being not just a male but Kim Seungmin, was definitely attention worthy. Did he care?. No. He just wanted his phone and be done with this. News of his presence, had reached even dorm 1. Girls wanted a peek at him. Dorm 9 was full, but girls from other dorms were still hurrying over.

Why is he here?. Why is he with Ari?. Who did he come to find?. Who permitted him?. Who let a boy in?. What happened to his hand?.
These were questions going around and more.

Some of the mumbles reached his ears but he never stopped his journey up the stairs, neither did he let Ari's hand go until he got to her door. "Passcode", he simply ordered.

Ari knew she was fucked and her heart slamming harshly in her rib cage was an evidence. She cleared her throat, maybe trying to signal the other people behind the door, to help her out and hide the evidence. She typed in a code and the door clicked open.
