Chapter 23: Last Week

-Song Ji Hyo-
"It's the last week of school!" I said excitedly to Joongki. "What are our plans for this summer? It'll probably be our last ones ever since tomorrow is our last year of school."

Joongki sighed. "Yes, so much stuff has happened this year. I'm glad we're friends and we were able to overcome all that stuff together."

I smiled and put my hand on Joongki's shoulder. "Me too. But nows not the time to be sad because we still have a whole year to go. And who knows, something might happen after school. We could work in a TV show or something together."

"You want to be an actress?" Joongki asked. "That's so weird. I want to be an actor when I graduate."

"Really? That's awesome! We could work in a drama together." I said happily.

Joongki shook his head. "I doubt we're going to get that famous."

"Yah, what are you talking about. We're famous at school right now. This is the first step to success." I assured.

Joongki smiled. "You're right."

"What are you guys talking about?" HaHa, Jong Kook, Jae Suk, Kwang Soo and Gary joined us.

"We should all work in a drama together! It would be fun. It doesn't have to be real or anything." I said.

"I like the sound of that. I'll be the main lead." Jae Suk said.

Jong Kook looked at him in disbelief. "You? If anything I'm the main lead."

"You wish." Jae Suk said. "Yah, have any of you guys seen Ji Suk Jin around?"

Gary shrugged. "No, I haven't seen him since morning..."

"Where do you think he is?" HaHa asked.

"Let's go look for him!" Jae Suk said.

We all agreed to go search for Suk Jin who hasn't been showing up to any of his classes. We looked outside, in the science lab and in every classroom but he wasn't in any of them. We even checked the news room (which I didn't know we had), and the people in there said that they never saw him.

"What are you guys looking for?" Jong Kook asked when he saw us.

"Ji Suk Jin." I answered. "He hasn't been showing up to his classes, and we're kind of worried."

"You guys checked everywhere?"

All of us nodded.

"Even the auditorium?" Jong Kook asked.

We all looked at each other than ran to the auditorium.

"Ji Suk Jin!" Jae Suk shouted as we went inside. Sure enough, Suk Jin was sitting on the stage by himself in the empty auditorium. He looked up when he saw us, but didn't move from his spot.

"What are you doing?" HaHa asked.

All of us walked towards him and went on the stage. We sat next to Suk Jin.

"I don't know what I'm going to do." Suk Jin said. "This is my last week of high school, and I still don't know what I want to do when I graduate."

"Didn't you want to be an MC?" Joongki asked.

"Yeah, but you guys all laughed at me so I had second thoughts." Suk Jin muttered.

"We laughed because we thought it was funny!" Jae Suk told him. "That's what being an MC is all about! You have to try and make people laugh and like you."

"You can work as a variety MC!" Kwang Soo suggested. "They're always looking for funny people."

"Really?" Suk Jin asked. "You think I'd be good at MC'ing a Variety show?"

"Of Course!" We all replied.

Suk Jin smiled. "Maybe I'll give it a try..."

Gary patted him on the shoulder. "Good! Now why don't you get to class ?"

"You guys are really great friends. If we could, I wish we could ditch school and go to Jeju island." Suk Jin sighed.

"Let's do it!" I said.

"What?" Suk Jin asked.

I looked at everyone else. "Let's go to Jeju Island!"

"It's our last week of school though.." Joongki said quietly. "We're still Juniors."

"So? We've already been through the whole nine months of school. Why not take a week off?" I asked getting excited. "I've always wanted to go there anyway. What do you guys say?"

"Ji Hyo we could get into trouble..." Gary started.

Jong Kook interrupted him. "I'm in!"

I smiled. "Anyone else?"

After a few moments of silence the others slowly started to agree.

Even Gary finally said, "eh, I guess so. What could go wrong?"

"Ji Hyo I never thought you'd be the type to skip school." HaHa said sounding impressed.

I smiled. "I like to be a rebel every once in a while. So suk Jin. You ready to head off to Jeju in two days?"

"Yes!" Suk Jin clapped my hand and we all laughed.

"JEJU!" Kwang Soo said happily.

This was also good for me because now I'm able to get closer with all my other friends like HaHa, Jae Suk, Suk Jin and Kwang Soo. It'll probably be a bit awkward around Gary and Jong Kook, but who cares.

Going to Jeju might not be such a bad idea after all!
