Deep down, you knew you were going to work alone, that is if you were even allowed to take part in the assignment. Professor didn't assign people to groups. You assumed that he probably already had groups in mind, but then you walked in.
But, that's all your imagination. Who knows.
Everyone quickly grouped into three's, most of them crowding over towards Shownu and Minhyuk who were in this class.
Yes, the Shownu and Minhyuk. You just sat there, waiting till the end of the lesson. You were in no rush, the other lectures didn't matter. They weren't interesting and art was your passion. If you were to only complete one class in your entire life, it would be art.
After a few minutes of choosing who to be with, the lecture was finished, leaving only you, the professor, Shownu and Minhyuk.
You didn't really notice their presence until you stood in front of Professor Kim. "Seojin! Good to see you back in cla—"
"It's not permanent, every now and then." you crossed your arms. Professor nodded, "Nevertheless, I think it's good you showed up. I have high hopes in you for this assignment."
Your eyes widen in shock, "You're going to let me participate?"
He nodded eagerly, "Of course. I've seen your work and I think it's marvellous."
"You've seen my work?" you spoke with uncertainty, raising an eyebrow at the professor standing right in front of you.
"It wasn't intentional. Anyways, since this project is in groups of 3, you still have to be with someone. Shownu and Minhyuk will be in your group." Professor Kim gently pats their shoulder.
Looking over to Shownu, he is seen smiling, showcasing the famous eye smile he has that got every girl swooning over him. And Minhyuk, also giving his radiant, sunshine smile. The professor starts walking towards them, only to stop on his tracks when he's behind. "It was actually them 2 who wanted to work with you."
Astonished, you looked at them, alternating a few times before completely stopping. "Why? Why me?"
Professor Kim starts packing his books and papers away before heading out, "Ask them yourself. Remember to turn off the lights and lock the door, please. I expect good results!"
Silence is followed as the click of the door is heard. This makes no sense, Shownu and Minhyuk want to be partners with you, you, the dropout, the one who gets called all sorts of names. You, Hwang Seojin.
Minhyuk chuckles, rubbing his head a little out of embarrassment, "Sorry about that. Did we scare you with the news?"
You shook your head immediately, waving your hands simultaneously, "No, not at all. It's just, weird you'd want to work with me. Every girl was literally fighting each other to just even ask you guys to work together."
"You're very observant."
Turning your head to where the voice came from, you see Shownu still smiling, but his aura was very serious. "Hey, if you're free this Sunday, we can go to a studio, talk about the assignment and start working on it. Are you free, Seojin?" Minhyuk asked.
"Umm, yeah, sure. I'll be there." your eyes wandering around, slightly panicking. Minhyuk smiled, even more, brighter and started clapping, as if he was a seal who just got the best meal of their life.
Shownu looked at his watch as if he was in a hurry to go somewhere. "Minhyuk, I'm going to leave first."
"The others?" Minhyuk replied with a hint of uncertainty. You eyed the both of them, Shownu didn't orally reply, but he nodded, "Okay, go first."
Minhyuk kept smiling at you, whilst Shownu headed towards his bag that was resting gently against the podium, before making his exit. With your head turned to where Shownu was, you watched as he walked out. Was it you? Was it you being partners with him that he acted like that?
You faced Minhyuk, only for him to give a reassuring smile, it was a softer smile. "Don't worry, it's not you if that's what you're thinking. Shownu just doesn't like to be late for scheduled events. We actually really want to work with you."
Nodding at his answer, Minhyuk starts to pack up and head out, not before waving to you, "I'll text you details later, see you around then. Bye!"
Now, you were left alone. Sill shocked at the events that had just happened a few minutes ago. Never would you have expected anything like that to happen. The memories of the talk still replaying, fresh in your head. Shaking thought thoughts away, you remembered what Professor Kim had asked.
Turning off the lights and locking the door, you finally headed out, taking in a breath of fresh air for what is about to happen in the future that lies ahead for you.
