Chapter 7: Stage Play

Today was September 28, 1998, a Thursday, a.k.a the day when the dumb pranksters lose!

I already got ready for school and am now walking into the big gates of Brent University, home of the golden eagles. As I was walking inside, I was approached by a tall boy, he was kind of cute and had bowl cut hair, he also wore a white shirt that said 'I'm your hope!' in glitters and tiny horse details.

"My name is Hoseok, but you can call me J-hope." He greeted me, taking my hand that rested on the side of my hips, shaking it.

"Nice meeting you, my name is Jenna."

"Oh, I already knew that." He replied, making my eyes widen in shock. He realized what he had just said, and covered his mouth with his pale hands out of embarrassment, coughing nervously as he did.

"Fo-forget about what I just said." He stuttered, looking as tense as possible.

"Anyways... I was wondering if you were going to go see today's play." He asked with a smile that reached his eyes as he handed me a poster, it was decorated with dark textures and bold colors, radiating off a mysterious vibe. In the middle part of the paper, the name of the school play was written Your Worst Nightmare.

"See you there Jenna!" He said as he ran off and started giving posters to the people around us, advertising the play.

I continued walking to my locker when I was interrupted by another person again, this time it was Jihyo.

"Are you going to the play?" She asked as she clinged unto Hyuna's arm, making the latter push her away as a response.

"Well if you guys are going then I'll go." I replied, as I got the stuff I needed out of my locker.

"Well then, what are you waiting for?!" She said in excitement, releasing her hold on Hyuna and placing it on mine, pulling me away as I hurriedly placed my stuff in my bag before heading to the auditorium.

The place was huge, it was like an amphitheater, the numerous seats surrounded the grand stage that was currently being hid by silk red curtains.

Jihyo continued dragging me until we got to our seats which were right in front of the stage, I sat besides her and Hyuna, while Sana sat on Jihyo's right side.

"I'm so excited for this, it's been years since this school had their last play." Sana exclaimed as she jumped up and down on her seat, making the springs cause a squeaky noise.

"Well then, I think we're in for a surprise." Hyuna said smirking, as she played a game on her phone.

The room started to fill every minute, and in such a short time, all the seats were occupied by students, teachers and even outsiders, which was pretty much shocking.

"Our school's been known for our amazing plays but then we suddenly stopped because of the lack of budget and stuff like that. We haven't been able to perform in years, that's why our comeback is pretty much a hit." Jihyo whispered into my ear, her eyes glued onto the stage.

I nodded to her as a response, and started tapping my feet along to the beat of the soft background music that played as we awaited for the play to start.
