I waited in the line to turn in my paperwork. In the end, I decided to try photography club at my new high school. After turning in the paperwork, I searched for the room number I was given. I had difficult time finding the room, walking back and forth. I planned to ask for help when voice called to me.

"Wendyssi!"

I turned my attention to the voice. It was Yeri. "Are you here for photography club?"

I nodded. I am not very familiar with the school yet.

"Yeah we know, we saw you walking back and forth." Taehyung said with a tone that left me with a numerous ways of interpretation.

I did not even noticed his being until he spoke. Where was my mind these days? A few days ago he was all I thought of. I was going to say more, but stopped when the teacher began speaking.

"As we all know the saying: A picture speaks a thousand words..." The teacher began his lecture, but I again zone him out like I did with the coach. I glanced at Yeri who was focused on the teacher and V who was sitting with his eyes shut. I watched for a while more, but he turn his head and our eyes met for a moment. I turned away, flustered. I felt my face and neck. It was warm. Can't imagine what I looked like now.

I gave my attention back to the teacher, avoiding further humiliation. "Your summer assignment is to take a picture that speaks feelings with your assigned partner." Another summer assignment? Maybe I should quit. But part of me wanted to stay because Taehyung was here.

The teacher took out lots of pre-cut lengthy yarn and told the girls and boys to stand on opposite sides. He held the yarn at the center with his hands into a fist and all of us picked a yarn. He let go and all strings of yarns criss-crossed forming a confusing picture. Then the boys all pulled on the other end and we girls followed to see who our partner was. I followed my yarn which led to Taehyung. He made a surprised face, but was not looking at me. Instead at my bangle. I dropped the yarn and hid my wrist. He raised his head and looked even more surprised. I wanted to laugh. His eyes wide and mouth open made him look funny, but worry crept into my mind and I just could not laugh.

Does he remember? I looked around his neck, looking for a silver shine. None. Its lost. The key to my heart and our memories is lost. Just like him.

We snapped out of our internal problems when the teacher told us to pick the emotion we were gong to convey from a cup. Taehyung reached in and took out a slip of paper with finely printed words. He held the paper for the teacher to see.

"Love." The teacher announced. "I don't want the cute love, I want deep love" The teacher whispered before moving on.

Great. Fate is playing with me today. 2 things that shouldn't be together right now: love and Taehyung. It did not make sense and it was ironic. If only the teacher knew our story.

Afterwards, I left as quickly as I could, but Taehyung caught up to me again.

"About the summer homework, do you have time tomorrow?" He asked.

"Ah. Yeah. Sure." I agreed hastily and turned to leave quickly, but he grabbed my left wrist. I flinched and moved my arm quickly behind me.

"I have to go. I have to go to training." I said running.

"Yeri said there is no training today." He shouted. I ignored, just kept running. From what? I didn't know myself. Maybe I did not want to hear his explanation. After all, he lost the necklace. That could mean a lot, a lot that I did not want to hear just yet. For right now, not knowing even though I wanted to for 3 years meant there was still hope.

Here is a WenV chapter. The next one will also be a WenV chapter. Will V question about the bangle and how will Wendy respond? Will she tell him everything? Stay tune.
