-Kim Jong Kook-

I walked out of Running Man High and was suddenly surrounded by news reporters. They all started asking questions at the same time.

"Kim Jong Kook, what are your thoughts on the wedding with Yoon Eun Hye?"

"Is it true you're only marrying her for your companies and not for love?"

"Why did you agree to marry Eun Hye if you don't love her?"

I pushed past the news reporters and ignored them. The limo drove up to the front of the school, and I got into the back seat and closed my door. I locked it and told Chanyeol to drive.

Chanyeol drive away from the reporters and took a deep breath. "That was scary. I thought they would all try to come into the limousine."

I sighed. "This sucks. Why do they always have to get into people's private businesses?!"

Chanyeol shrugged. "You're practically a celebrity now Jong Kook. Should I start calling you Mr.Kim?"

I glared at him. "Yah, shut it."

Chanyeol smiled than said, "You know... I was thinking about what Gary said. I think I want to be a part of the music industry."

"So?"

"I was wondering if... It's okay for me to quit." Chanyeol glanced at me in his mirror.

I stayed quiet. "You're going to leave?"

"I could get a better life if I became an idol. I already have a group and we already have some songs created. All we have to do is get it into a record label and if the people like it then BAM. We're famous." Chanyeol explained. "I've wanted to be a singer ever since I was a kid. This is a pretty big opportunity for me."

"I'm not your father so I don't know why you're asking for my consent." I said, but I sort of didn't want Chanyeol to leave.

Chanyeols eyes widened. "So you're saying it's okay for me to quit this job? You're not going to send some creepy guys after me and lock me up in a ware house or anything?"

I chuckled. "No, you can quit if you think it would make your life better."

Chanyeol smiled than frowned. "But who's going to replace me?"

Next Day
Kwang Soo stopped the limo in front of Running Man High. He got out of the car and started walking towards the schools entrance without opening my door for me.

I got out of the car myself, annoyed. "YAH!"

Kwang Soo jumped slightly and turned around. "What?"

"You're supposed to open the door for me!" I scolded and walked past him.

"Why? It's not like you're a pretty princess or anything. You're Mr. capable. You should be doing things yourself!" Kwang Soo walked beside me.

"I hired you so you can do stuff for me!" I said angrily. "And I found eggshells in those eggs you cooked for me this morning!"

"Well I never said I was a perfectionist!" Kwang Soo said and opened the door.

I sighed. Dang, I really miss Chanyeol. I miss him as much as I miss Ji Hyo... That's weird.

"Hey, have you heard that EXO is going to have their first live performance here in three days?" Kwang Soo asked as we walked upstairs.

"No, really?" I asked in amazement. They must been really good to already have their first performance.
