Game - Haechan

²³

Yoonna was currently with Xiaojun at the evaluation room, waiting for the other three and the coaches to arrive. Xiaojun told her some stories about their training period, how they met each other and were put in the same team, some other gamers still under training they did know. Yoonna listened to him, finding some of the stories interesting.

The door finally creaked open when Xiaojun was on the 19th story of how Yangyang managed to piss off Ten during one evaluation. The older male shut his mouth when he saw the two entering the room, the rest following behind including Winwin and Kun who were there to watch.

"Hi Xiaojun, hi Na," Winwin greeted with his usual smile as the two greeted them back. An unfamiliar figure with the hood over their head prevented Yoonna from seeing their face. The person sat at the furthest computer by the coach's instruction, and she had no chance to think of any remarks in her mind as the coach started the briefing.

"Today is your evaluation for entering the unit U, Yoonna, and the rest for monthly progress," Coach Mae started.

"I need all of you boys, and Na, to focus, put your best in this game. Haechan will be your support for today. I don't care if your opponents are weak or not, what I care is that whenever your teammates give instructions, follow if you can and show your potential strategies you have learned. You heard me?"

"Yes."

The four of them replied. Kun and Winwin gave them a thumbs up as encouragement as they sat in front of the large screen that portrayed the live game for them to observe, just a few feet in front of the gaming tables.

"Yangyang, you will lead this round," the coach instructed and the male let out a small 'yes sir' before he secured his mic over his mouth.

"Haechan, please pick either one," Yangyang requested. Haechan hummed, his mouse hovering over his favourite character, about to click it when he halted. His peripheral vision appeared a female's figure on the screen that displayed the current gamers' ID and profiles.

He gritted his teeth, the feeling of irritation bubbled up the more he realised that the girl was in the company, signed a contract, and now playing along with him without him knowing. Taeyong only told him that the company recruited a female player for the first time, which he was at first surprised and interested in.

"Hello? Haechan?"

"Sorry," Haechan let out, rapidly moving his mouse over to another character. He heard Coach Mae letting out a shocked gasp and his own coach swearing under his breath. He would surely get a lecture later but he could care less, smirking when he heard the girl cursing out a bit too loudly in the silent room.

"What the fuck?"

Yoonna breathed out, staring at the screen. The special guest that she didn't recognised had chosen an AD character for fuck's sake. Was he here to help them pass this evaluation or to troll with her? What is she supposed to do right now because surely she couldn't storm over to him and yell at him when the evaluators and coaches were still here.

"Umm," Yangyang, who was also stunned at the event, hesitantly glanced over to their coach who was shaking his head at him. He looked over at the already fuming Yoonna, scared to anger her further.

"I will take support," Yoonna clenched her fist as her right hand moved her mouse. She was trained as an AD, but support was mostly helping the AD player, it wouldn't be hard too right?

She glared at the boy that Yangyang had called him Haechan. Haechan rolled his eyes, snickering when he heard her coach comforting the pissed girl.

.

[Support, where the fuck are you? Why weren't you backing me up?]

Haechan coldly criticised through the mic. The rest of the team were extremely quiet as they didn't know what to do with the situation.

Yoonna was struggling between ranking her character or to help Haechan, especially when the latter was always picking on her for no reasons and she had been trying to keep her anger down for the sake of passing the evaluation, one of the rules was to not fight during a game.

[Hello? Can you hear me? I asked where you are, support. Are you deaf?]

[Can you stop? Can't you see I'm dead after trying to save you from dying when you just jump into a 1 VS 3 with your level at 4 while the three of them were at 7?]

Yoonna irritatedly retorted and rolled her eyes. She didn't understand why he would be promoted to be a player if his attitude already broke half of the rules the company had stated in the contract and the personality training lessons.

She heard the voice let out a half-hearted snicker, sighing when she was revived and immediately the AD jumped into another danger. Yoonna knew he was picking on her, but for what? What did she do wrong to make him hate her to the point he had to put a freaking show during her evaluation?

[Support, you are supposed to aid me in this kind of situation.]

His annoying voice passed into her mic again. Yoonna flung off her headphones from her head, having enough of his bullshit.

She went over to the mid-lane, aiding Ten instead when the boy was being targeted. The two attacked the opponent's tower efficiently with each other's help, and Yoonna tried to catch any request for help from Xiaojun and Yangyang without her headphones. It was a struggle for her since the coaches and evaluators were also discussing, but she managed to perfectly aid them out.

The screen finally showed the victory sign as Xiaojun and Yangyang tiredly sighed. They had gamed for 1 hour instead because of the tension between Haechan and Yoonna that they didn't know either. Yoonna rolled her eyes from the nth time, slamming the door close on her way out before her coach could stop her.

"Fucking asshole," she kicked the bin that was beside the door. Luckily, the bin wasn't light and not much rubbish was in it so it didn't topple. She would be in trouble if she made a mess with it.

"You should reflect on yourself," the voice said behind her, causing her to turn around and glare at the culprit.

"Stalking me to the point you signed a contract with the company isn't going to make me like you, No Yoonna. I hope one day they will realise how pathetic you are, entering the company to stalk us."

Haechan harshly shoved her shoulder as he walked away, the girl falling onto the floor at the strong impact. Yoonna hissed, caressing the side that came in contact with the floor. She wanted to retort back but her head pounded when her vision landed back on the back of the male to glare at his figure, seeing white as the colour flashed through her mind.

"What the fuck," Yoonna groaned, her hands reaching up to her head. The pain continuously increased, and she felt her body started to limp as time passed. Her legs gave up when she forcefully tried to stand up in hopes to return to her desk.

"Yoonna? Yina!"

Yoonna tried to force the blur in her eyes away, still holding onto her head as her face scrunched up in discomfort of her head pounding. She recognised Yuta's voice, the male spotting her lying on the floor seemingly in pain with Haechan's figure walking away from her.

"Yina, please tell me that you are okay," Yuta pleaded as he carried her over to the first-aid room. Yoonna winced in pain every time he took a step, the slight bounce hurt her head.

"Lie down, I will call your doctor over."

Yoonna closed her eyes, too drained to keep her eyes open and with her head still hurting, she let it pound while she drifted into darkness. 

Hi guys, it's been some time since I last updated. After this chapter I might have to go on a hiatus as I need to catch up on my studies and my exams. I'll continue updating maybe after April 😥

Have a great Sunday and see you all, soon, soon 😊
