«Rewind to Friday, the day after Chanyeol found So Jin«

§∞Jin Ae's POV∞§

"Hey, " Mi Yoon says going up to me as I enter the school gates. I rub my eyes trying to keep myself awake. "Are you OK? Did you find her yet?"

"No, but I'm fine." I say shaking my head. We go inside the school and to our lockers. She goes to the other hall because that's where the class 3-B lockers are. I sigh when I open my locker and look at the picture I taped on the door. It was a picture of us after she just won first place in a ballet contest. I carefully take it down my locker and caress it in my fingers. I get my books, as I put the picture in my pocket.

"President Im," I hear someone yell as I'm about to go up the stairs. I turn around and see Hyorin, the Sophomore student representative of class 2-A. I force a smile.

"Yah! How many times do I have to tell you to call me Jin Ae, I feel like my dad when you call me that," I chuckle and slightly slap her shoulder as she comes near.

She jokingly rubs her shoulder and pouts. I laugh, it sounds so fake. But she doesn't seem to notice. "So, about the meeting later, we have to show you our which student in our class does what right?" She asks looking at the paper in her hands.

I nod, "Yeah, and also make sure that you tell the other sophomores and freshmans that they are not gonna get killed. The juniors and seniors aren't that scary." I try to joke around, hopefully it hides my haggard disposition. She gives me an ignorant smile and is about to say something when someone bumps into her very roughly, making her bump into me and dropping both our books. She falls to the ground, I hold my hand out to help her get up but someone brazenly appears in between me and Hyorin. I look up and I instantly break into cold sweat.

It was Seo Woo, she laughs loudly and says "Oh my, I'm so sorry. I couldn't see you because your existence means this much to me." She says, pompously giving Hyorin a side glance while making a very small hole with her fingers. She stands up and tries to pick her books up but Seo Woo slams her hand on the stack of books already on Hyorin's hands. "It seems like you student council's are planning something, what is it? Is it a plan to be the losers of the losers," she says and her lackeys snicker.

I could feel tears coming to my eyes as I stand up. Just when Seo Woo was about to say something again. I hear a slap, and I see Willow standing in front of her. I blink multiple times, trying to process this whole thing. "Oh I'm sorry. I didn't see you there." Willow says as she flips her her. I feel arms wrap around my shoulder and see Mi Yoon hugging me. Willow picks up Hyorin's and my books as she says,"I thought you were a tiny pest called the 'roaming bitch' so I decided to slap it away," she finishes smirking, I see Baekhyun grin and I now notice that he, Chanyeol, DO, Chen were right beside us.

Seo Woo clutches her cheek and glares at Willow, "How dare you!?" she shouts and just when she was about to slap willow a hand grasped her wrist.

"Students!" He yells at the crowd that have gathered. "You all should be going to your classes, The bell rings in two minutes." he shouts louder this time. He claps his hands and looks at Seo Woo and then at me, "Come on! Chop!Chop!" Then he sways his arms around as if he's gathering a herd of sheeps.

"Thanks, Baekbeom-oppa," Willow whispers as we go up the stairs. He just gives us a wink. Everyone goes to their classes and at the exact time we sit down the bell rings. I look at Baekhyun who sits in front of the class, Chanyeol who is at thelast row, last column and at Willow who is three seats away from me. The moment we make eye contact we all crack up. We quieted down when Ahn-sehm entered the room and started the lesson.

Honestly, I'm quite relieved to finally laugh after So's disappearance.

It's been 3 days since So ran away and everyone's been so hectic since. I notice that Baek, dad, Ji young and Baekbeom-oppa have gotten dark circles under their eyes, I think I'm the same too. I also notice that Jun's eyes are always swollen in the morning and it worries me even more.

"-Ae, earth to Jin Ae~ Im Jin Ae!" I hear someone shout in my ear. I jump up and my knee hits the edge of the desk. I wince in pain and hold my hurt knee up. I look at who shouted at me and see Mi Yoon waving her hand in front of my face. I was spacing out. Its also during a student council meeting, Aish, what a great student council president. Sarcasm drips in my thoughts."You need to stop spacing out," she says putting her hand in her hips.

I wince and rub my knee, "You always do this to me," I jokingly pout. She just grins, but it slowly turns into a sad smile that I really don't want to see.

"I'm sorry," She says sitting next to me in the big Student Council President's desk. "I know you've been busy with your sister missing and all and-" I cut her off.

"It's fine, I know you understand, but it's still my fault for spacing out during the meeting, especially since I'm the student council president." I tell her with a smile. She nods, not wanting to argue for something so little. She gives me the notes she took from the meeting. It contains the list of AT quarter students who are playing the official games. I caught a glimpse of my sister's name and my heart squeezes.

"Here are the requests by the 3rd and 4the years," she says pointing to the cardboard box that sh placed on my desk. I scan through it and slowly, my face scrunches up to a frown. I hear her chuckle besides me. "I know right, these requests are so expensive, I mean seriously? 'Can you make the prize a trip to Québec City?' 'Can the prize be a trip to Puerto Rico?' 'Can the winners all have a bubble tea maker?' Okay, the last one was good but still, it's expensive." She says giving the paper a duh-look. I laugh, hard. So hard that the council members all gave me the stink eye. But Mi Yoon also joins me, so we both got glares from everyone in the room.

"Dad, did you find So-unnie yet?" Ja hee asks dad. We are currently eating dinner, silently, when Ja hee spoke up, dad stopped eating and wiped his mouth with a napkin. (Today's dinner was Italian-themed.)

"I'm sorry sweetie, but we still don't know where she is." Dad says apologetically. After he says that the table went quiet again. I really wish that we find So Jin quickly, so we can fix this mess. I think with a sigh.

[A/N: I'm so sorry if I haven't been updating lately, I thought that you guys are getting tired of this story so I stopped writing it for a while. But I got frustrated since my thoughts about this story are all over the place.]
