MINAH'S P.O.V.
I ran as fast as I could to get to the bus stop. I had exactly 3 minutes to get there or else it would be my millionth consecutive time missing that damn bus. I dashed past early morning street vendors and stores that were just preparing to open for the day. I received dirty looks from the people I bumped into, my sorry's were ignored. I always get distracted with my surroundings of the crowded streets of Seoul that I just stand there and stare, explaining why I previously missed the bus many times before. But not today, today I was determined to make it on that bus, it was a goal I needed to reach. Out of breath, I cursed mentally at Chanyeol for not giving me a ride like he usually does, but he texted me the night before saying that he needed to go to school earlier than usual.
YESTERDAY NIGHT'S MESSAGES WITH CHANYEOLIE
Chan: Don't miss the bus tomorrow, I can't save you and drive you to school. -9:30 p.m.
Me: Why not?? ㅠㅠ - 9:32 p.m.
Chan: I have to finish the project with Xiumin, it's due in like 5 days. - 9:32 p.m.
Me: What project???????????????????????????? - 9:36 p.m.
Chan: The one with your partner? No wonder you were assigned one instead of getting to pick your own, you're so clueless. Do you even know your person's name?? - 9:37 p.m.
Me: Go to sleep so you can wake up early. - 9:38 p.m.
Chan: I'm guessing thats a no? You are truly horrible. - 9:40 p.m.
The minute I reached the bus stop, the bus pulled up. I thanked the heavens for my long legs and my ability for precise timing. When I got on, the bus driver stopped me and asked if I was a new student, I laughed and shook my head no. I made my way towards the back where I plopped down on a seat that had holes covered with duck tape. When I was settled and comfortable, I took off my shoes and sat criss crossed on the seat, taking up all the space. I'm going to be selfish and not allow anyone to sit next to me, but there was barely anyone anyways. I opened my bag and started to search for the paper that I printed out last night explaining the project that I was supposed to start a week ago. I kept searching and searching but I couldn't find it. It took a lot of convincing for Chanyeol to email me the paper last night, I cursed at myself for my unorganized trait while violently shoving everything back into my bag when the bus hit a speed bump. Now, let me tell you that it was no ordinary speed bump, it was the speed bump from hell. I hit my head on the seat in front of me really hard, making the couple sitting in front of me to turn around, looking annoyed since I just disturbed their make out session. I just smiled awkwardly and said a quick sorry. I looked down to see that one of my shoes were gone, it slid down towards the front due to the impact of the bump. I really didn't feel like looking for it, it was probably in the very front right now, where no one is sitting. I sat and waited for the remaining 10 minutes it took to get to school. When we arrived I waited and extra 2 minutes for everyone to get off. I was too busy looking at my phone that when someone tapped my shoulder I flinched. I looked up startled, immediately turning my phone off.
"I'm guessing this is your shoe?" He looked down at my feet while handing me my shoe. My sock had flamingos on them, bright and pink.
"Thanks." I took it from him and put it on my socked foot. I was going to give him my most sincere smile since what he did was nice, but before I could, he walked away muttering whatever under his breath. How rude I thought to myself as I got up to leave as well. I saw Chanyeol talking with Xiumin outside the doors of the school, girls standing nearby admiring their good looks and charms. I pushed past the girls, rolling my eyes.
"Look who's here, you owe me 35,000 won." Xiumin held out his hand while Chanyeol placed the money in his palm.
"You guys are real assholes for doubting me for being on time. And YOU," I shoved my finger in Chanyeol's chest, "never ever let me ride that bus again do you understand me? You better be at my door every school day at precisely 7 a.m." He shoved my finger away and laughed. The first bell rung, and people started making their way to class.
"Lets go boys, education is awaiting us." And with that, all three of us interlocked arms and walked in. I heard girls squealing with jealously in the background, causing me to roll my eyes the 20th time just this morning.

When I was settled in my first class, I went on my phone to see a text from my mom.
You left a paper for school on the breakfast counter this morning. - 8:40 a.m.
My eye twitched with annoyance, I remember now. I walked out of my room with the paper in hand then placed it down to make breakfast until I noticed how late it was so I left the house without the paper and my toast. I was bummed out more about the toast, I was hungry and lunch wasn't for another four hours. I mentally cried to myself with my head in my hands. I took a glance over at Chanyeol and Xiumin, girls were trying so hard to flirt with them I felt sorry for my friends. I'm not going to lie, they were both very attractive, but I was too close with them to even think about dating either one. The thought of it just makes me think of incest, it was gross.
Professor Oh slammed her desk with her ruler that brought us all to attention. The ruler looked as old as she was so I was surprised that it hasn't snapped in half yet.
"Your project has been pushed to an earlier due date since I have something else I want to do. It is due in 2 days. You all better turn it in on time with both partner's name on the cover. NO LATE EXCEPTIONS."
shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit i'm so screwed. I thought to myself.
I saw Chanyeol giving me a look, smiling at my demise. I stuck my tongue out in response, he was so annoying. The class went by really fast, I tried taking notes but I ended up doodling little flowers everywhere on my notebook so when the bell rung it startled me. I gathered my things and was about to get up when a stack of papers was thrown on my desk.
"Hey, what's your prob-" I turned to look at the culprit, it was the guy from this morning.
"Put your name on it." He said.
"What is it?" I sat back down on the chair, looking through the packet.
"Our project?"
"You finished it by yourself?" I was shocked. I didn't even know he was my partner.
"Yup, just put your name on it, it's fine." I felt really bad, I found his name and wrote mine underneath it.
"Thanks...Sehun, i'll make it up to you. You want to grab a cup of coff-" Before I could finish my sentence, he picked up the packet and walked towards Professor Oh's desk. He was turning it in,
"Sehun and Minah, very impressive. I should've paired you guys up in the past." She smiled an impressed smile before looking back down at her desk. Sehun walked out the door without even looking back or saying anything. I felt bad of course, but I didn't want to go after him out of fear that his rudeness will make me mad. Frowning causes wrinkles. And with that thought, I finally left the classroom.
