Sunoo arrived at school, the previous day's drama still fresh in his mind. As he made his way through the bustling hallways, he noticed a guy approaching him. The guy had a friendly smile and seemed approachable.

"Hey there! Quick question for you. What's your house color?"

Sunoo blinked in confusion, momentarily thinking the guy was asking about the color of his actual house. He stammered, "Uh, my house color? Well, it's...uh, beige, I guess."

The guy chuckled, realizing the misunderstanding. "No, no, I meant your house color for school activities, like tryouts, competitions, and stuff."

Sunoo's face turned a shade of embarrassment as he caught on to what the guy meant. "Oh, I get it now! Sorry about that. I'm not really sure about my house color."

The guy shrugged. "No worries. It's not a big deal. I'm just trying to gather support for the upcoming elections next month. I'm running for captain, you see."

Sunoo was intrigued. "Elections? Captain of what?"

The guy explained, "Well, we have different houses here at school, and each house has its own captain for various activities, including sports, events, and leadership. I'm running for captain of the Red House."

Sunoo couldn't help but feel like he had stumbled into a real-life Hogwarts. "Wow, this sounds like something straight out of Harry Potter."

The guy laughed. "Yeah, I guess it does have a bit of that vibe, doesn't it?"

Curiosity piqued, Sunoo asked, "Are you the only one running for captain, or is there competition?"

The guy grinned confidently. "Oh, there's competition for sure, but I'm up for the challenge. It's all about gathering support from fellow students, and I thought I'd start by asking around. Are you planning to run for captain?"

Sunoo shook his head. "No, I don't even know what my house color is! But it sounds like a great opportunity for leadership and making a difference."

The guy smiled and said, "Anyways, good luck finding out your house color! Tell me if you're also in red!"

Sunoo thanked the guy and continued on his way to class, still bemused by the Harry Potter-esque twist in his high school life.

Sunoo eagerly made his way to the math class, anticipation tingling in the air. As he entered the room, he was met with a heartwarming sight: Jungwon, his face lit up with a friendly smile, patted the empty desk next to him. Sunoo couldn't help but feel a rush of happiness as he hurried over to take the offered seat.

The math classroom was a familiar space, neatly arranged rows of desks bathed in the soft, diffused light filtering through the curtains. The teacher's desk stood proudly at the front, covered in a labyrinth of equations and geometric shapes. The chalkboard bore the remnants of previous lessons, its surface now wiped clean and ready for today's mathematical journey.

Jungwon, ever the cheerful classmate, welcomed Sunoo with a friendly nod. The textbook lay open, pages marked with notes and scribbles from previous lessons. Sunoo's notebook, too, was neatly arranged, filled with his diligent work. The gentle hum of conversation floated through the air as other students discussed the day's lesson or exchanged last-minute notes.

Sunoo smiled at Jungwon, genuinely curious about his house color. "Hey, Jungwon, do you know your house color?"

Jungwon grinned, looking rather proud as he answered, "Yep, I'm in Red."

Sunoo couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation about his own house color. His curiosity only deepened as he mulled over the possibilities. After their math class concluded, he gathered his belongings and headed out of the classroom, only to be pleasantly surprised by the sight of Sunghoon waiting for him in the hallway.
