Stuck in Between (EXO-APink Fan Fiction)

16. Tantrums

Chorong's POV

School isn't fun when there is too much work to do and when the exams are nearly coming. Especially now that I don't have my books.

Though we tried to make them dry under the sun, they couldn't be read because of the paint which reminds me of that Grease again. I REALLY HATE HIM!

When I arrived inside the school building, I don't know if I'm just being paranoid or what but I think people keep staring at me.

What could be the problem this time?

Is it that bastard again?

Did he do something to my stuff again?

Maybe he threw my chair and table outside the window like those bullies in dramas!

Omona!

Eotteokhae?!

I lazily walk towards my locker.

"Good morning! Open it!"

A post-it message is in my locker's door with a white rose beside it.

Mwoya?

When I opened my locker, I saw new books neatly arranged inside it.

I looked around to see who did it, but no one is around except some girls gossiping, but I can barely hear what they are talking about.

Then I saw another post-it note on my locker's wall.

"This is a present. Hooe you like it!"

There is no name or anything. Who could have done this?

"OH MY GOSH! it's Tao!" Bomi excitedly commented.

I called them last night to tell them what happened yesterday. And today, while we are having pur lunch, I told them what happened this morning.

"There is no one else who could have done that except Tao." Bomi added.

Eunji nodded in agreement. "And you told us that Tao is a chaebol so who could afford to buy those expensive books."

"But Kris is pretty rich, too." Inserted Na Eun.

We all looked at her with question marks on our faces.

"How could you think of Kris when all he does is bully Chorong?" Eunji blood pressure is getring high again that she is using he Busan accent.

Na Eun smiled and made a peace sign. "Just telling you.."

"Okay. So it's 100% sure that it is Tao so better thank him later." Eunji said in her usual authoritative tone.

"Speaking of Kris Oppa---" we all stared coldly at Bomi hearing her call him that endearment.

Call me Oppa.

His voice lingered in my ear again.

Arrrrgh! I mentally shook my head.

"Okay. Omit the 'oppa'.." Bomi said. "He hasn't been around Chorong lately. I wonder why.."

Na Eun nodded. "I guess he is busy with basketball practice."

God, thanks to basketball!

"Speaking of the devil." Eunji is staring at the canteen's door when she spoke.

Turning our heads, we saw Grease. And worst, he is going towards our direction.

As usual, his side kicks are following him.
