PURSUE {Park Jihoon & Kang Daniel}

I need you here earlier than expected. Can you come tomorrow?

I read the text I had gotten from my aunt while I walked to the fridge and grabbed some pudding.
I was free tomorrow and had nothing planned so I texted her back that I could come and only minuites later she replied with some more info.

I wasn't very talkactive with my family this evening either. I was stupid and shouldn't had gone with Daniel. It only made things worse since I must admit that I had a good time.

The next morning I woke up early and got ready for going to the event hall. I wondered what I would have to do and got a bit excited while eating my cereals which led to me cleaning of yoghurt from the wall.

I searched for the location on my phone and woke up my dad so that he could drive me there for the first day. He wasn't happy about going somewhere that early but he went with me anyway.

What was I supposed to do when I got there. Build? Organize? Write schedule? I had no idea and that's probably why I was so curious and excited.

Charlotte had written before that I could meet her by the busstop so that's where I asked my dad to let me off. It was super cold now in the middle in winter but there was still no thick snow on the ground. Only a thin white layer of frost because even when it had snowed it melted away a day later.
The cold didn't kill me though since I wore my new comfortable jacket and a warm knitted scarf.
But even if it wasn't unbearable, auntie still took her time I must say.

I checked the time at least five times. First after two minuites, then five, and eight, ten and when fifteen minuites had passed I decided to call her. But she didn't pick up so I tightened my scarf and began orienting my way to the building.
I was sure that she had just forgotten or that something important came up.

When the map on my phone showed that I was near the entrance I looked around me and right away noticed a huge building. Without hesitating I entered through the big doors and was stopped just as I stepped inside.
Of course they had guards here but I hadn't thought about that and now the problem was how I was going to get past them. I didn't have a pass for employees yet.

"Well need to see your entrance card miss." He said and stood infront of me.
I told him the situation but he replied that he couldn't let me in without a pass no matter the circumstances. I tried to call Charlotte again but she still didn't pick up so I sat down on a bench right beside one of the doors and waited. The guard watched me for a moment but then turned his attention elsewhere.

I played some games on my phone for at least twenty minuites before I called yet another time and luckily she decided to finally answer.
"You told me you were going to meet me by the busstop!" I yelled irritated at the phone which seemed to have surprised the guard on the other side of the room who then glared at me and placed his hand on the wall to relax his heart. It looked funny because he was big.

"Oh my god!" She replied and it sincerely sounded like she really had forgot. "I'm so sorry dear but I'm a bit busy so can't you come here on your own?"
I glanced at the "big guy" and sighed heavily. "Well I'm already here but I'm not let inside because I'm not an employee. What should I do?"

All this waiting had made me less excited about the whole thing and it had also made me tired. I mean it was early in the morning and as the time passed it became harder to keep my eyes open.
She told me to wait for only a little while longer and that she'd tell the closest person available to come and get me.
I didn't remember anything after she hung up so I guess that I fell asleep while waiting.

I felt something brush against my forehead and woke up but didn't open my eyes. Someone moved away straws of hair from my face. I wiggled a little and the hand quickly pulled away which made me unintentionally open my eyes. The person standing in front of me was strangely leaning close and looked strangely familliar. And he seemed just as surprised as me.

"...Sorry..." He mumbled and leaned away. "I couldn't see your face and I wanted to make sure that it was you.."
I stared at him and thought for a moment. "Are you letting me in?" I asked and pointed to the guard. "Past him?"
He nodded once and we were silent for a second before I recalled something. "Like last time...haha." I said and giggled and stood up from the bench. He nodded one more time and grabbed the arm of my jacket and pulled me along. "Don't be slow. I've got things to do." He said and hid his face. I think I saw his cheeks turn red for some reason.
He flashed his pass to the guard and pointed at me and then kept going without waiting. I glanced at the guard and then ran to catch up with him. "Jihoon wait for me!"
