Just College

Sungkyunkwan decided to be rational, and not resume school activities immediately after the school's official resumption. It made sense that they didn't. Students had to move over to new classes, Freshers had to complete their registrations and settle down, Some students had to resume too.

Students like Yoon Nari.

"This is yours and that's Nari's?", Dayeon pointed at each long refrigerators. The past two days since resumption, she's been cooped in her sister's furnished room. Even though that wasn't necessarily appreciated by the school's rules and regulations if noticed. But who would come up here?. The mistresses were still all busy with the girls' resumption processes. They stayed out from dusk till dawn, signing in students. It was hectic.

"Yeah. Got a problem?", Daya asked, standing behind the small makeshift counter, whipping up something quick for herself and sister, like she's been doing. With Dayeon here, she has more mouth to feed.

Splendid.

"No. Not one", Dayeon laid back on her sister's bed, wiggling her toes in her socks. "Did you hit Nari unnie up with a quick text at why she hasn't resumed?"

"No"

"That's why phones were created, unnie. Use your phone for its purpose. Really, you act so old and out of time. Even haemoni uses hers.."

Daya pursed her lips, tuning her out. She nagged about phones like someone. Someone she was yet to see, meet or speak to. Seungmin. Daya shook her head, to stop herself from falling deep into the thoughts she has been having since her sister came back with her.

A look at Dayeon, "Get up and help yourself", Daya said, placing a plate of dressed sandwiches on the counter.

Dayeon, being a freeloader, jumped up at the offer, running over. Small chuckles came from Daya at the excitement. She helped herself with some, just like Dayeon was doing. "The roommate that's a senior, you still haven't seen her?"

Dayeon nodded, pushing some salad back into her mouth with her fingers. "She's never there. The other girl, Hayun, said she just set her things up and left", another bite. "I think it's better that way"

"Why do you say so?"

"It's still awkward between Hayun and I. We are always fumbling around and making little to no talks. That's bearable. If the senior stayed with us in the room, I just think the awkwardness will be heightened. You know what I'm saying?"

No, I don't but yeah, I do.

"She is in 4th year. That's so pressuring"

Oh.

"I get you now", Daya said, taking a big bite of her sandwich. "You have to adjust quickly or you won't survive", she was being totally real.

Dayeon gave a slow nod. "I know. Will try", she took another sandwich off the plate. It's just been two days but she felt like she weighs 10kg less. "Why haven't you texted Nari?. Me doing that will be random"

"You got me wrong. I didn't text her but she did. She is down with a cold"

"Awee. My regards to her. She should speed up her recovery"

Daya snorted. "She is not some boosting machine. It's not by her means. She is getting better though"

"That's good", Dayeon hummed satisfiedly. "Unnie, what I would do to be you"

"Don't be me", Daya unconsciously said in a soft whisper.

"Eh?"

"Nothing. It's nothing"
