In the club room, Jin and Jisoo sat at the table together. Jin was filling out the captain’s book and Jisoo was flipping through the stack of pictures she had taken of Keun-suk. No matter how many times she looked at them, she just couldn’t pick the best one. “Captain, for the next article, which picture do you want to use?” She asked his opinion. “I’ve thought of a headline.” Jin looked from the book to her. “Basketball Hunk in Full Splendor.”

Jin leaned over the table closer to her. “You mean Suga?”

“Say what?” Jisoo asked with one eyebrow raised.

“RM?” He continued to tease.

“Oh, please.” She rolled her eyes as she shuffled the pictures more.

“Then it must be me.” He said putting his chin in between his pointer finger and thumb and giving her a cute handsome smile.

“Go look in the mirror.” Jisoo insulted him.

“Hey.” Jin said taking offense. “Full of yourself.”

“Shut up.” Jisoo said. A sly smile spread her lips as she picked one picture from the many. “The hunk I am talking about…” She held the picture up of Keun-suk, where he wasn’t staring at the camera and held a basketball at chest level. “Is him.”

Suddenly, Jin’s attention turned from the picture as his mouth flew open. “Beauty.” He mumbled.

“Hunk!” Jisoo said loudly as she shook the picture in his face. “Are you jealous?”

Jin still ignored the picture even with it an inch from his face. “It’s a beauty.”

Jisoo followed the direction of his drooling stare to the stairs directly behind them. Her mouth dropped open as well when she saw the woman standing their looking back at her. Jin was right, she was beautiful. Her raven black hair was long and waved down her back. The business attire she wore hugged every curve of her thin body. Her eyes were intense as they stared back at Jisoo. “Excuse me. Is this the basketball club office?” Her voice sounded like heaven to Jin’s ears.

Still in a stupor, Jin slowly stood up from his chair with a cheesy smile on his face. “Yes, yes.” He stuttered in answer.

Jisoo quickly stood up and tried to block his view of the woman. “Who are you?”

“Friend of your coach, Jang Keun-suk. I’m Kim Jang-Mi.” She smiled sweetly at them.

“Nice to meet you.” They both said at the same time as if they were in a trance.

Keun-suk’s POV

He stood in front of the quiet classroom reading the book he was holding his lecture on. He paused for a moment, for the students to catch up on the notes he was writing on the board. As he waited, his eyes swept over the room. He was looking for Lonna, but the sight of her empty desk concerned him. He quickly composed himself and started teaching again when the last hand raised to say they were finished.

He finished the last lines of the book just as the end bell rang. The students sat at the edge of their seats, waiting for him to dismiss them. “This is the last class I am substituting for Professor Lin. I hope I have another chance to meet you all.” He bowed his head to the students slightly. “We’re done.”

He had expected the class to run for the door, but to his surprise, they all stood up and started to clap for him. Seeing the kind gesture, Keun-suk couldn’t help but feel pride. He couldn’t stop himself from smiling as they all started to leave.

Momo grabbed her full bookbag and walked over to Krystal, who was still putting her stuff away. “Krystal. I don’t have a class after this, so I will leave first.”
