Hwayugi (One Shots)

Be with you 2

Jin Seon Mi wanted to skip class for the very first time in her life, she didn't know how to act around Son Oh Gong. There he was, he saved and she repaid him by running away like a coward. When he had entered the theatre room for English Literature, he was his usual cheerful self, not sparing a single glance at her. She did not know how to feel about that.

"Okay time for a group project!" Professor Oh Jeong announced cheerfully which earned a couple of groans from the students.

Jin Seon Mi disliked group projects, it would mean putting her in a position to work with a partner and that partner would not do anything and would just take credit for all her hardwork so she had requested that she would just do group works alone even if it would mean being a social outcast then she already was.

"Dialogues in movies or plays or anything in that matter, are extremely important. The message of each dialogue represents the essence of the story. So I want you to pick any dialogues from any type of medium and represent it in class. As long as it is in English. This will be a paired project. Now go and find your partner"

Everyone started to stand up to find a partner but Jin Seon Mi stayed on her seat knowing that it was completely useless to find a partner since no one ever wanted to be hers.

So imagine her complete shock, when she felt a presence sit beside her. She turned to see Son Oh Gong smiling brightly at her, "Hello, partner!"

Her face remained shocked and Son Oh Gong could not help but wave his hand across her face trying to get his attention, "Hello, Jin Seon Mi-ssi!"

"Uh...what are you doing here?" she asked.

He raised his eyebrows in amusement, "I'm here to be your partner!"

"Excuse me?"

"You're pretty, too bad you're sort of deaf. I said I want to be your partner. The last time I check, a pair means two. You and me." He smiled obviously enjoying her confusion.

Jin Seon Mi heard a couple of whispers from the room, it seemed as if the class was also shocked that the most cheerful man in campus wants to be the social outcast's partner.

"Oh Jin Seon Mi-ssi! You finally found a partner! That's good. Son Oh Gong, you picked a lovely girl as a partner. Make sure to contribute." Professor Sa Oh Jeong remarked and walked to the other groups.

Son Oh Gong did not give her a chance to speak and just took a paper and started scribbling down some notes.

"I already have some American movies we could get our dialogues from. Unless you have some of your ideas, we could choose from that too!"

Jin Seon Mi was still flustered at what's happening "Uh... American movies are fine."

"Great, so we can choo-"

"Thank you." Jin Seon Mi interrupted, it was long overdue anyway.

This time it was Son Oh Gong's turn to be confused, "For what?"

Jin Seon Mi gulped as she remembered what happened the other night, how she was nearly attacked and how Son Oh Gong helped her, "For the other night. For saving me and I'm sorry for what I did, when I just took off like that."

Son Oh Gong's eyes became gentle, "It's fine. Are you okay now? How about your bruise?"

Jin Seon Mi nodded, "Im okay now, it was no big deal anyway."

He looked like he did not believe her so he brushed her hair away from her face to look at her scab on the lower lip. It had healed a little bit. Jin Seon Mi backed away from the contact and felt her heart skip a beat.
