UNKNOWN: Don't worry
UNKNOWN: I'm here to help you! (*≧▽≦)ツ
Horrified with the situation, Eunbyeol just stares at the phone with wide eyes.
Sunghoon: what is it? Did you get a new phone or something?
EUNBYEOL: Huh?
She says snapping back to reality.
STUDENT1: What's wrong with Eunbyeol?
STUDENT2: No clue, she just got mad out of nowhere
EUNBYEOL: It wasn't Sunghoon? BUT WHO ELSE WOULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS?!
[TIME SKIP]
The teacher was writing equations on the board while Eunbyeol was in deep thoughts.
EUNBYEOL: Something's not right. This is so weird! I was holding the phone the entire time so how did those photos just disappear like that? What's going on?
Just then the jellyphone buzzes snapping her from her thoughts. She looks at the message she received with a picture attatched to it. In that picture she saw a keychain thrown somewhere in garbage. But the thing is that it was not just any keychain. It was a gift from her to Euntae. The message read
UNKNOWN: Poor you...(>﹏<)
She turns around to look at Euntae's bag only to find the keychain missing.
[FLASHBACK]
EUNBYEOL: Ta-Da!
She says, showing Euntae the teddy keychain excitedly
EUNBYEOL: it's a present!
EUNTAE: its so childish
He says laughing and looking at the keychain
EUNBYEOL: What do you mean?
She says slightly glaring at him.
EUNBYEOL: Wear it on your bag, okay?
He takes the keychain, giving it a look before turning to Eunbyeol.
EUNTAE: Okay
He smiles at her.
She blushes slightly before turning to leave.
EUNBYEOL: See you tomorrow!
She says waving her hands before running back home. After she leaves he looks at the keychain again and scoffs.
EUNTAE: Man this is so freaking childish
[PRESENT]
UNKNOWN: Do you still think your boyfriend likes you?
She looks at Euntae for a second before shaking her head in denial.
EUNBYEOL: No! I need to get rid of these useless thoughts. It must have fallen off his bag
She replies back to the messenger.
EUNBYEOL: Who are you? Do you think this is funny?
She types in anger. She was about to send the message when the unknown replies,
UNKNOWN: you want to know who I am? (¬_¬)
EUNBYEOL: When the reply arrived before I could even send my text, I finally realized what a strange situation this was.
As soon as the bell rang, eunbyeol rushed to the girl's washroom and threw the jellypop into the garbage can. She washed her hands and walked out in relief.
EUNBYEOL: That should be the end of it
She looks to her right and sees her boyfriend and her sister.
EUNBYEOL: Hey you guys.....huh?
Haneul's hands were wrapped around euntae's neck pulling him into a headlock while his hands were around her waist, holding her tightly. Soon haneul spots her sister.
HANEUL: hey eunbyeol!
She waves her hand showing her a wide grin
Do you still think your boyfriend loves you?
EUNBYEOL: Why is that text message popping into my head right now?
[TIMESKIP]
It was a free period so everyone was chatting around with their friends. Eunbyeol sat on her seat, scribbling on the pages of her notebook. She was in deep thoughts about the unknown messenger.
EUNBYEOL: What the hell was that? A stalker? A hacker? Or is there a ghost inside the jellypop phone? It doesn't make any sense!
SUNGHOON: Teacher, you haven't checked our homework yet
TEACHER: Oh yes, everyone show me page 47 of your workbooks then. Let's check who did it.
Everyone in the class glared at him.
[AFTER CLASS]
STUDENT1: hey sunghoon! Why did you remind him?
STUDENT2: Man that was not cool!
SUNGHOON: So what? Just do your homework
He puts the pencil under his nose and pouts to balance it.
Eunbyeol stares at him
EUNBYEOL: The prime suspect here is probably someone who knows me very well.
Sunghoon makes an eye contact with her before dropping the pencil onto his hands and started twirling it.
AJIN: to be honest, I don't think euntae is a great boyfriend material. I mean he's so.....
SEYEON: The way I see it, euntae doesn't even seem like you
HANEUL: Did euntae cancel your date again? Don't cry! Want me to go yell at him?
HANEUL: Cheer up, let's get fried chicken!
Her thoughts seemed to wander.
EUNBYEOL: and someone who clearly knows I like euntae more than he likes me
She continues to stare at sunghoon. He stares back before mouthing "what?"
Eunbyeol: the same person who uses a retro jellypop phone no one else uses
In the background a music plays:
Oh, baby, I'm your jelly
Like sugar, melt me into your heart, oh, wow
Oh, don't stop, jelly
The moment you swallow me, you find me again, oh, wow
Chewy jelly pop, pop, my heart flutters, I'm shaking (hey, I'm your jelly)
EUNBYEOL: I mean jellypop users are rare these days. It's suspicious.....
The music continues to play.
EUNBYEOL: eh? Wait.... This song is quite familiar.....
TEACHER: who didn't hand in their cellphone yet? Bring it to the front immediately
Eunbyeol turns back.
EUNBYEOL: Could it be...?
TEACHER: Hurry up! Sucheol you're sitting at the back go bring it to me
He stands up and open the locker. There was a jellypop phone which stopped ringing as soon as the locker was opened.
STUDENT1: Huh? Isn't that a jellypop phone?
STUDENT2: Jellypop? Isn't that sunghoon's?
STUDENT3: But that's eunbyeol's locker....
Eunbyeol stared at the phone in fear.
EUNBYEOL: What...? but how?
EUNBYEOL: What is that doing in my locker again?!
