The next day came and I woke up with the sunlight hitting my face from the window of my room. I checked my phone as soon as I wake up because it kept on vibrating and saw tons of calls and messages from my friends. I tightly closed my eyes mentally preparing myself for their scolding. I scanned some of them and most are just messages about me, irresponsibly disappearing from the party without informing anyone.
Billy: How can you just leave like that?
Hyewon: Are you alright?
Hyewon: Your purse is still here, your wallet is in here, just where the hell are you?
Some messages are sent just a while ago, I scrolled through them and my eyes widened realizing that it's already getting late for my first subject.
Hana: Aren't you going to attend your first subject Billy said that it's one of your major subjects.
Billy: It's a good thing that we're both in the same class as the first subject. I'm going to make excuses for you, just thank me with a meal later.
I smiled and replied to Billy's message.
I placed my phone on the side table and stood up ruffling my hair as I went out of my room. I saw him still sleeping comfortably on the couch that made me scoff.
He didn't just pass out because he was drunk. He was so energetic last night that I think he already used his reserved energy for today. He said that he still has classes for today but I think it's rude to wake him up considering that he's really drunk last night that I doubt if he even remembers all the things that he has done under the influence of alcohol.
I am also expecting him to freak out once he finds out that he's in a different house. I didn't willingly bring him here, I just don't have any choice.
I went to the kitchen and checked the refrigerator if I can cook anything that could cure his hangover once he wakes up and I am thinking of cooking dried pollack soup. After confirming the needed ingredients, I started slicing the radish and the others.
After cooking and preparing the food, I took a bath and prepared myself for school. I might not be able to attend the first subject but I can still attend the next one anyway.
When I went out of the room, I saw him cluelessly sitting on the couch while roaming his eyes around the living area. His orangey-red hair is messy but it's so unfair because he still looked attractive!
I went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water and handed it to him. He just stared at me and looked at me with confusion. I raised a brow at him and moved the glass closer to him making him move back. I chuckled upon seeing his reaction.
"You drank a lot last night...you know what I mean? Alcohol dehydrates you so drink at least a glass of water." I said. He took the glass from my hand and drank it. My lips formed a small smirk before going back to the kitchen.
"I cooked a hangover soup, you should have some. I safely did it." I removed the food cover and put some on the bowl. When I noticed that he's not moving, I looked at him and I saw him ignorantly staring at me.
"Why are you just sitting there? I still have school to attend and I bet you also have classes today." I heard him curse in the American way once again that made me smile.
He stood up and went to the kitchen. I gestured for him to take a seat as I put soup into another bowl and placed it in front of him. He tightly held the utensils as I sat in front of him and crossed my arms. He took a peak up but eventually looked down. I scoffed and started eating.
"Just eat, let's go to the bus station together, I'll be leaving for school anyway," I said in the middle of the silence. He nodded slowly and started eating.
