[ Hanyoung University, 8:00 am ]
"Faster, Sunjae. Faster." Sunjae was muttering to herself while writing notes for the first period of the class, which is Math. The rule is just simple: no erasures. That's why even if she tried to write as fast as she can, she's afraid she might commit one.
She was already at the last page when abruptly Gongchan arrived and accidentally bumped her left arm. Unfortunately, it created a big line mark on the paper.
Sunjae tried to control her temper. It's the last paragraph but her best friend failed her. She puts the pen down and looked at him, with an angry expression, obviously.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." then he grinned at her.
But Sunjae just showed an unsatisfied reply, and went back to her seat.
Now she have to do it all over again.
But abruptly, the bell rang.
Sunjae's eyes grew wide. She moved panickly.
It made her stop moving and sit still when their professor arrived. Her heart was still beating so fast because of nervousness.
"Class, I'll count 1 to 3 and stand those who didn't finish the notes."
Sunjae was totally dumped. No one's standing, except if she will stand alone.
Then Gongchan suddenly stood up. He went in front and the professor told him something. He then went out of the room.
"Okay, let's start our lesson." [ Professor ]
Sunjae was surprised with that unexpected move. She opened his bag which was left on his desk and she saw that his notebook was there: with complete notes.
So it simply means her best friend saved her from the problem.
That's a good thing for her; but Gongchan will do the consequences. She has no idea what is it.
Breaktime has already started. Much to her expectations, Sunjae really used the notebook of Gongchan.
In return, she bought his favorite drink and looked for him at the open field of their school.
Then there, she sighted Gongchan, running around the field for how many laps.
She stayed under the shade of the tree and waited for him to reach her place.
"1049, 1050, 1051, 1052..." he was counting the steps. It was the consequense. Run around the field with 1500 steps.
"1495, 1496, 1497, 1498, 1499, 1500." Finally it ended. He has stopped in front of Sunjae. He was still catching his breath, and was sweating a lot, after running around the field for how many rounds; without stopping.
He was just there, sitting, not minding that she was there.
"Gongchan-ahh, take this one." she handed the can of soda to him.
Riyoung then arrived, gasping.
"You guys are so mean. You didn't wait for me." she spoke.
"Sorry, Riyoung-ahh. I was just worried about Gongchan that's why I hurriedly came here." Sunjae replied.
Gongchan stood up after taking a rest for a moment and took the soda from Sunjae. "Is the consequense enough ?"
Sunjae's eyebrows met in doubt. So it just means he's ready for another consequence.
But Sunjae dismissed it all. She doesn't want him to suffer. Plus, he also didn't mean to bump her arm.
